Erh. What? You should point out that if give the patient 100,000, and the minimal terminal care, the government loses 200,000. But I have solution. Now that the patient is rich, we can tax him more. In Finnish terminal homes they can take 9

In the Nordic countries the obligatory minimum care of terminal cancer patient is often quoted as 100,000 euros. So this sum might be cumulative and we start from the 100,000.

Wait. I have another solution: "Those who die before their god-ordained time, loose all their wealth and die poor". But I think this was used in medieval times, at least they did lose their advantageous spot in the graveyard.

I was planning to make those crucial breaking parts from Carbon Fiber myself, but I was such a poster-boy for PUR that they sended me free PUR-35 ($5000). It makes 3 liters per hour and if you replace the solid-iron pumping shaft it weighs

Those specifications are much worse than 30 year old PUR-06. It makes one liter per hour with 20 Watts and fits in your pocket. I tried solar panel and windshield wiper motor. But direct-drive windmill was much better as wind blows 24&#x

Hacker News Down Voting Crew is very particular. I think they changed the system, so that the Crew cannot go far back in history to downvote everything, because of one humorous non-PC message.

Connecting two rotary phones (via 40 volt battery) is the easiest thing. They work as-they-are without modifications. When the phone is off-hook, the dialling rotator makes pulses and when the phone is on-hook those pulses cause the bell to
