Park the rest in the highest interest account that'll have me and live off the interest without touching the principal as much as as I can, do whatever the fuck I want for the rest of my days.
Yeah even if you parked your billion in some account with super low interest, say 0.1%, it'd still generate a million dollars a year without you even doing a thing.
Knowing what people are like, I could fully see us spending decades trying to reverse Brexit and being very explicitly clear that we won't get the same deal we had, only for the general public to completely ignore all advice until two days before the referendum to rejoin and go "wtf we don't want the Euro" (even if that's not even on the table) and then vote against it again.
Yeah I do kind of suspect that's an optimistic one. I could genuinely see us doing: 10 years of bickering over whether it's going well or not, then 10 years of regret, 10 years trying to get back in but by a very slim margin while 48% of the voting public tries to undermine it at every turn, 10 years and untold amounts of money trying to meet the criteria to be let back in, then it goes to a vote and someone puts an idiotic slogan on the side of a bus again and it doesn't go through. Then we go back to square one.
Mine is Sylvester McCoy, and he wasn't the first Doctor I saw, but he was the Doctor when the show sort of 'clicked' for me and I got properly into it if that makes sense.
Not sure if this is 100% accurate, but I heard that how it works is they donate the money first, get the tax write-off and then try to hit people up at the checkouts to refund all the money after the fact. That way they get the tax break for donating the money without actually being out of pocket. I don't know what happens if people donate more than the amount they spent, but I think I can take a reasonable guess.
If you do echo "3 6 * p" | dc in a terminal it'll give you the result of 3x6, but the dc part of that is software that was written probably between 1969 and 1971.
I'm possibly being a party pooper, but I'd also like to see all three disappear into their respective prisons and never hear from any of them ever again.
I come back and mess around with it once a year or so. I'm an Original Backer so it's become kind of an annual tradition at this point. Also I have one of those red AMD ships which I think are kind of rare or something?
It really blows my mind how good of a deal reddit has (had?) with regards to content and how determined they seem to be to blow it up.
By that I mean: they make the site, all the content is created for them for free, all the moderation, sifting through horrible porn, nazi shit etc. is done for them, also for free, people create apps to more effectively drive traffic to their site, also for free, literally all they really have to do is run ads to rake in the cash, keep the servers up and try to provide better tools for the free moderators to sort through the free content more effectively.
They only do one of those things reliably, and people still contribute endlessly for free. So really all they have to do is not directly torpedo all the free labour they rely on, and they even fucked that up.
Yeah I was saying the other day how if I really needed to I could probably just use the Steam Deck as my main PC. A bigger drive, a dock, bluetooth M&K I'd probably be pretty much good to go I think.
I'm probably just being idealist of whatever but personally I really hope it doesn't. I don't really like the idea of one instance getting so big that it has the ability to disrupt all the other ones, I'd much prefer in was all just little niche servers run by people who are passionate about the subject, even if it's not making them any money.
But probably it'll all just eventually conglomerate into one big thing and then turn rotten and we'll all have to find something else, because that always seems to be the way it goes. But these are the wild west days for this platform, enjoy it while it lasts!
Additionally, is there a way to block a magazine (hopefully I'm using the correct term) aside from having to actually go in there and click on the block button? If a properly skeezy one shows up on my general feed I'd prefer to not have to actually open it to filter it out if that makes sense.

I clicked the link so I could block it, it went to a 404. The system works!
