The mining of the battery and disposal of it will become the equivalent of a SuperFund site in the future. It will make nuclear waste look like a simple problem to solve.

The current state of affairs in the world; with the pandemic, work-til-you-die, and economic disparity have adversely affected ALL forms of recreation, not just sex.

The dirty little secret most towns have is that the recyclables your town makes you wash, separate and put out at the curb, just end up at the landfill these days because in some areas of the country, there is such a volume of material, there is no one to sell it to. In the case of newsprint, you actually have to PAY and DELIVER the newspaper to the recycling facility -- if they will take it at all. Some types of plastics have NO MARKET AT ALL. In many cases it is simply cheaper in the end to just to straight to the landfill, and more and more municipalities are doing just that -- while still doing recycling theater. If your regular trash and recycling are being picked up by just one truck, you can guess what the real story is.

There are issues of ramp pressure, dwell times and lung tissue compliance that make me skeptical this could work with actual random patients hooked up to one machine. There is more to inflating lungs than just hap-haphazardly pushing air in and out.

The very concept that giving them a pass on this is laughable, even before you count the 737 issues. If Space-X had flubbed a test, you can bet the entire program would be stopped and put under painstaking slow review by multiple committees.

The phones themselves, without removable batteries and with GPS chips and microphones and inside, are as ubiquitous as shoes in most of the western world. Who knows what secrets lie in the operating systems of these devices? The tinfoil hat is only itchy when it's hot out.

LogMeIn, Inc. (LOGM) has a P/E ratio of 290. For comparison, Apple's is 24. I hope there is a lot of projected growth in password managers.

OK, Boomer.

Fukishima, Chernobyl and Three Mile Island slump down in their seats while Admiral Rickover laughs manically from the back of the room.

There always seems to be a desire to "stick it" to weakest and most defenseless members of society, yet corruption and self-dealing by government officials goes largely unchecked.

The Adobe CS6 Master Collection was something like $2500+ back at the final version. The Creative Cloud, which includes more software packages, more frequent incremental updates, some cloud storage and a few other trinkets and baubles goes for $50 a month. (They have been slamming my mailbox with a never-ending 40% off for the first-year "limited time" deal for the past six months.) I can install on both Mac and PC with same license. In 50 months, I would break even - and probably have to pay a full version upgrade fee somewhere in there as well. Microsoft Office 365 comes with their entire suite, though Word and Excel are all I need. It also comes with a terabyte of cloud storage and some surprisingly good iOS apps that take advantage of it. For the same $99 I would pay Dropbox for JUST the terabyte of storage. But wait! There's more! (Billy Mays voice) That $99 gets me FIVE sets of the suite (and a terabyte of storage each) for my household. I've messed around with LibreOffice, and other types of FOSS. They are OK, and probably the perfect solution for developing countries or non-profit organizations where every penny matters. For me, I make my money doing actual work ON the computer, not messing WITH the computer. Futzing with second-tier "free" software is not without cost when I have to develop work-arounds for "close, but not quite" problems. I've never understood how someone will sit in front of a $2800 iMac and tell me how much money they are saving by using GIMP to edit work that will be sold to clients. When they loose that client because of color-proofing issues on a 10,000 print run, will they have really saved money? This is picking up pennies and watching dollars blow by. I don't feel gouged by either of these companies. It's a consumable business expense that "wears out" like tires on a taxicab, the phone system in the office, or fire insurance on the building I work at.

Facebook "is working to empower the side of good?" That's doubleplusgood!
