Though a good lawyer can contest that. Probably not worth it, but ...

It is stupid to die with money in the bank. You don't know enough to plan this out exactly though, so the real goal is minimize the money left, but don't run out before you die.

The first question is what is your situation like.

How is your retirement savings plans? 6 figures at 25 is a very good amount of savings, 6 figures at 60 is a terrible retirement account.

What is your education like - this will buy a good college degree, which tends to pay off very well in the long run for young people. (but only if you pick a good degree and study)

Make sure you have a good amount of emergency savings. 6 months living expenses is the general rule of thumb. You never know when something bad will happen in life - but bad things happen to everyone and savings it a useful way to ride it out.

Once the above is done:

Will a better living situation improve your life more than something else? You could go on a cruise every year with that money instead (I picked something wasteful that some people like, others hate). You could buy a really nice piano with that money. You could do lots of other things. Buying a better flat is one good option, but it isn't right for everyone. There is no universal right answer here, only right for you, so you have to decide (and understand sometimes you will be wrong)

That is a tricky question. IT isn't just does the CEO know, but should the CEO have known. If you make a machine that injures people the courts ask should you have expected that.

The first time someone uses a lawnmower the cut a hedge the companies and gets hurt can say "we never expected someone to be that stupid" - but we now know people do such stupid things and so if you make a lawn mower and someone uses it to cut a hedge the courts will ask why you didn't stop them - the response is then we can't think of how to stop them but look at the warnings we put on.

When Grok was first used to make porn X can get by with "we didn't think of that". However this is now known. They now need to do more to stop it. there are a number of options. Best is fix Grok so it can't do that; they could also just collect enough information on users that when it happens the police can arrest the person who instructed grok. There are a number of other options, if the court accepts them depends on if the tool is otherwise useful and if whatever they do reduces the amount of porn (or whatever evil) that gets through - perfection isn't needed but it needs to get close.

There is some risk that Russia will then have their spies kill that person. They have killed a few other defectors in other countries.

Doesn't really do much here where they are already trying to kill anyone in Ukraine they can, but he travels elsewhere he better be sure he has security involved.

There are bagpipes from places other than scotland. Much less well known and thus better fitting the weird/obscure qualification.

my grandpa - his kids were boomers - preferred self checkout. He loved talking to strangers. He died 20 years ago when the ui wasn't as good (though honestly little has changed since). Self checkout is so much more efficient.

What is stopping you? Just do it. Sure you need a little more range on your sea drones, but that seems feasable. (Getting out of the black sea is probably the hard part)

STOP TEASING ME! I can't get the id-3, much less those others.

Mandolin is the only one I claim. But I dabble in almost everything - with a prefrence for the weird/obscure. No recorder for me, I play the easier penny whistle instead. Someday I'm getting bagpipes, just need a place to practice where my wife won't divorce me.

Again, implementation is wrong, not the idea

I'm told Unicomp has finally rebuilt all the tooling and the keyboards are good again. When you got in 2019 was from a worn out assembly line and would have problems. If you like the keyboard a new one is apparently good again.

Go to your local bike shop and buy why they sell/fix. Cheap bikes are often not worth fixing and so cost more in the long run. At your local bike shop you will find experts who can sell you something good. Sometimes the staff isn't friendly, go elsewhere, there are other bike shops. Yes you do eliminate 90% of the possibly choices with this route, but there are still plenty of good choices left.

Consider a bike trailer instead of a cargo bike. There is no right answer for everyone, but I personally like the trailers I have.
