I had a few cousins who took and finished all my grandma’s unfinished quilts. They were already into quilting though. YMMV, but it is a good example - if there is someone who can understand/take this over give it to them.

There would be so much other news that this slow-new-day story wouldn’t be covered by anyway. Assuming it even moves - the idea that at 0 it is too late and so it can’t reach zero because nobody is left to move it is reasonable.

The most common tactic these days is raeio ahead and some other cop throws a tire puncture device in front of your car. You won’t go fast with flat tires. They have to be careful not to get other cars but otherwise that is safest for them.

It is stupid to die with money in the bank. You don’t know enough to plan this out exactly though, so the real goal is minimize the money left, but don’t run out before you die.

The first question is what is your situation like.

How is your retirement savings plans? 6 figures at 25 is a very good amount of savings, 6 figures at 60 is a terrible retirement account.

What is your education like - this will buy a good college degree, which tends to pay off very well in the long run for young people. (but only if you pick a good degree and study)

Make sure you have a good amount of emergency savings. 6 months living expenses is the general rule of thumb. You never know when something bad will happen in life - but bad things happen to everyone and savings it a useful way to ride it out.

Once the above is done:

Will a better living situation improve your life more than something else? You could go on a cruise every year with that money instead (I picked something wasteful that some people like, others hate). You could buy a really nice piano with that money. You could do lots of other things. Buying a better flat is one good option, but it isn’t right for everyone. There is no universal right answer here, only right for you, so you have to decide (and understand sometimes you will be wrong)

depends on your applications. Some are fine on 1gb. Some run short on 8gb. I’m under NDA so I can’t say more.

In a car they are only putting in what thay need. The ram is soldered in so it can’t fall off when you hit a bump - that or complex/expensive fasteners.

infotainment is effectively a pc. How much ram would you expect in a pc running all that? Everything else probably isn’t much, but that system will have a lot. Often the backseat has sysems which need more.

Green is a myth. (I’m colorblind)

Mouse with your off hand means your main hand can do other things - type or such. Most keyboards have a numberpad to the right, so the left is the more ergonomic place for a mouse.

I have two computers, and two keyboards and two mice. I keep a mouse on each side. (I tried a KVM and didn’t like it). YMMV.

I need the mouse cursor to be better at drawing attention to itself at times though. When you have a couple big monitors often finding where that cursor is hiding becomes a problem.

You still have a power supply with a laptop.

Your kids should inheirit the desk your great granpa mades, those plates that have been in the family for years. Your lost $40 should be used to pay the taxi driver who brings you to the hospital where you die.

give them love now. Teach them to care for thenselves. They should expect to get nothing. Spend your money yourself for what makes you happy.

Don’t give the bills - pre-pay your funeral. (Careful - there are a lot of scams here).

Core or Scale? If running Core I’d say install plain FreeBSD on it. Even if scale I’d consider that in a full wipe - FreeBSD is great as a server and supports ZFS out of the box without problems.

Then grow a long beard (not optional, even if female) so you can be “the old guy who has seen it all”

Go to the political party of your choice’s monthly meeting. Each party/state has slightly differen’t rules, but the major parties have a local chapter in every state. Speak up when the chance is offered / on topic (it won’t be everytime). This is where you learn who is planning on running before they announce - in enough detail to have an informed opinion on if they are good. that is where you go to find out how to help those who are running win.

everything else is noise that won’t change much. Get good people elected. Knocking on every door will turn out enough votes toechange election results in your area.

don’t fall for one party good. all are badin different ways. Find one that mostly you can support and reform it. Small issue voteres who get involved change how the party acts (in part by ensuring people who agree are on the ballot, in part because those who do the work get long conversations with the people they support - thus changing how congress thinks).

Blackboards were often real slate. Chalkboards (note the different name!) were wood painted green. I don’t know why the name was different, but that is what I always saw.

A pound is the same for both. The oz measure is what was different. Thus an oz of metal is heavier than an oz of feathres. However a pound of both weights the same.

Some people care. Those who don’t should just respect them by always leaving it down. Understanding isn’t asked for, just respect

even if their country has a port that doesn’t mean they keep their yacht there. better to fly to a Carribian island where the weather is nice than keep it near home and spend all that time sailing to where you want to be - boats are typically so slow that they would need to leave before they get there. If you want the yacht is some port you have the crew move it there and then you fly to it.

Wire and rust embedded in your skin is not good. In the eye is worse - I know of people who were wearing both a face shield and full safety glasses who got grinding dust in their eyes.

I don’t have a good answer to the problem, nobody else likes any of their answers either from what I can tell.

i assume you mean as in your increased earnings will no longer pay the expense. The never too late crowd is thinking of school as a pure ‘fun’ activity which is a valid way to look at things but if you don’t like school isn’t for you and that is how I’m choosing to interprut your question.

the question is never answerable unil after the fact: I can calculate after you are dead. However I went to school with someone who went right to college, a mistake because he died in an accident at 21. Other people get mental decline in older years and so it is too late when they are no longer able to learn.

you can retire at any age when you have enough savings, but some people find it boring and will continue to work anyway - if this is you it can be worth it even if ecconomics don’t work out if you get a job you like (or perhaps one that by not wearing on the body you can do longer)

many jobs pay for your schooling. if this applies the only quesntion is will you have to remain at the job longer than you want to afterwards.

if paying for your own schooling you can calculate the expected earnings after and compare to the cost to make a decision.
