Otherwise, you have to choose: either you invite one adult from the household, but then the other may be unaware of the event details, or you invite both, but then you must rely on them to discover it to avoid a scenario where they both RSVP for themselves and a partner and a kid, and you end up double counting.


and did you see the transparency report Google released with the censored bar on the secret us gov requests? I loved how you could see bits of the graph peeking through :)


Somehow I imagine the plan involves Brazil being able to tap the line...


Many industries (food, steel, electronics, energy, mining) are considered to have military strategic importance.

For instance, Japan works very hard to grow rice even though it would be much cheaper to import rice from China. It's because not being able to feed your own population is bad in a war. Energy (oil) is the same way.

The line between military and industry is often not very clear.


Forgive me for asking, but as there are tons, can someone point the relevant bits out? I've been following the news and I haven't seen any.


You are clearly a government plant spewing lies!

Naw, just kidding. But that would be a deliciously ironic way to interpret your comment.


In his post above, he says temperpedic is 1.8 lb. so which is it, 8 or 1.8?


The low-end Tempur Queen mattress from this page:

47 lbs / 22.22 cu. ft = 2.1 lbs

The weight listed is probably the shipping weight with packaging, so the actual weight of the foam is less. Seems like 8 lbs would be extremely dense.


Okay but stop thinking in extremes for a second.

Imagine I need a car and I hear there is a 30% off sale in January. Yes, I'll wait. Im considering the lost marginal value to me (keeping my shitty car in December) vs marginal gain (saving 30%). That's what deflation feels like.


But as far as I can see, you wouldn't have bought the car without deflation (or a sale, as it were), because you couldn't afford it. So in this case it causes you to spend money that you wouldn't have spent otherwise.


that's fine, its a public key :)


I believe proving identity can only be done using a private key.


And don't forget air quality! Cow farts are a leading cause of greenhouse gases.

Seriously.
