I'd assume fresh water would be in rather short supply ? I guess it would depend on annual snowfall/rainfall in the time after the glaciers have moved on.

maybe it's due to Canada legalizing cannabis, but I feel like I've been seeing a lot more "pot is bad" messaging lately. Is this to head off any other countries from thinking about legalization ?

heh, I've worked for companies that hit the max on cookie size (which I think is around 60kb). For an entire framework to be 60kb would be amazing for these companies :)

the Surgery Center of Oklahoma already does this. I'd expect some of these prices are below the deductable of many plans or at least much less than you would get charged if you went to another hospital without insurance. https:/

Easy to do electrical yourself. I guess it depends on where you live but a self-wire permit just needs you to walk through your plan and get a couple inspections. It's intimidating for sure but it was really easy to wire my basement.

'degrow' == collapse The monetary system is based on debt, debt requires growth to service the interest, growth, at some point, is unsustainable. Collapse occurs at the point of 0.0 growth, i.e. the top of the curve. The question

Seems like a better approach would be to have the ransom increase higher after every person that paid. Just so you'd have some competetion to pay sooner.

So $26B in holdings to insure $1.372T in outstanding mortgages, that seem pretty low but since the taxpayers will cover the rest, I guess it's fine to continue handing out subprime mortgages.

Why is it that fat cells never go away but your muscles will start catabolizing as soon as you stop drinking protein shakes ? Are there any studies on this or is it more bro-science ?
