Another way to think about this, if she invested the $10B as you said, she could spend $1M every DAY forever and still have about $130 left over each year.

How much would you need to spend in a day to have a very comfy life? I could maybe think of a way to spend 10k, I would struggle to spend 100k in a day. I have no idea how to spend 10x that much EVERY DAY.

This graph would be identical for nearly any cause of death. Yes, we should drive less, and if we must drive then it should be safer, but this is just a graph of population, which itself is highly correlated with people dieing.

In that case, maybe canned soup (or beans) in grocery bags?

Water is reasonably dense. One gallon is a little over 8 pounds, so that buys you a few more days. After that you'd need to move to something like sand, but I assume at some point you'll stop needing to increase the weight. 90 lbs shoulder exercises after 3 months body builder territory.

Within a region, does table ever mean both of those?

In the US, it means to set aside or ignore it, but never means to continue the discussion. In the UK it means to discuss it, does it ever mean to also set it aside?

Factorio will not go on sale and never has. The devs have always been committed to offering the game at a reasonable fixed price. They did increase the price in modest small increments during early access as they got closer to 1.0. After 1.0, the price has not changed.

The price is completely justified if you like factory automation games. You can easily get 40 to 100 hours from the game. But if you want to really dig into it you'll be in for >200 (none of it is a grind). If you decide to install mods you could easily bump thst playtime out to 1000+ (again, all of it is enjoyable if you like these games).

I don't understand what Railway is supposed to do here? If deleting a drive also deletes the backup, what's the point of the backup?

Yes, that's right. Which means that any specific outcome is essentially impossible to occur. But given infinite time, they all would occur.

If it is truly random, where every outcome is equally likely, then Beethoven's 5th could be the first thing produced. It could also take an infinite amount of time to produce.

There's also Basque style. I've never tried it but I'm led to believe that it is similar to NY with strong carmalization to the point where it almost looks burned on the top (it's not actually burned).

Finally, there are further regional varieties using more local cheeses (e.g. Ricotta in Italy).

"Love doesn't hurt", meaning someome who truly loves you will not intentionally hurt you.

People of the age you described are not good at expressing themselves, but as you grow into more mature relationships, it should always be that love doesn't hurt.

I'm guessing the people that you consider to be the "left" are who people on the left consider to be the "right". This isn't a left/right ideological issue. People should be allowed opinions and we should each be allowed to agree or disagree, in whole or in part, with the opinions of others. Through those opinions, agreements, and disagreements we should each form our own morals.

We lose our ethics and our society when we stop listening to each other's opinions and morals and instead dismiss each other because they are not from "our side".
