It's a general-purpose diagramming program, not a web browser.

If I need a gun to protect my liberty (as the gun folks claim they do) then what would you expect them to do with their guns?

Shooting the oppressors is the only purpose I can think of. Do they have another function that I'm not aware of?

There's also something that could be called a "poverty tax".

People who have very little generally end up paying more for it than someone else.

For example, if you need toilet paper you might be able to scrape up enough money to buy a package of two rolls for $4.99. Even if the package of sixteen rolls is on sale for $9.99, you don't have $9.99 and therefore can't buy it.

Also, consider what happens if you are in a position where you have nowhere to store food and prepare it. You have to buy pre-made food in small quantities (individual servings) and can't even boil a package of ramen noodles. So you end up buying a taco from the truck on the corner at a higher price than you would pay if you could just make one yourself, but you can't.

The "poor tax" is real. It's really expensive to be poor.

It's their website and their property. They invite you to store some of your data on their webservers, and they provide the terms under which you can do that.

If you don't like the terms they are offering, you can not store data on their webservers.

Facebook isn't life-and-death.

I don't have a facebook account, I've never had a facebook account, and I'm still here. You can do it too, if you choose.

They (just) did.

Price-wise it's not significantly different, since $200 in 1984 is about $650 in today's dollars so it's about the same price as today's consoles.

However, when the Commodore 64 was released in 1982, it was $595, which is roughly $2000 today.

The main difference is that a Commodore 64 is a general purpose computer in addition to being a "gaming console" so you got more for your money in that regard than you get with a simple console today.

These figures are never indexed to inflation, because that would take away from the hype value.

Avengers Endgame has taken in 2.925 billion worldwide.

However, Gone With the Wind, released in 1939, took in 43.4 billion, if you index the ticket prices to inflation. The average price for an adult movie ticket in 1939 was 25 cents, which is equivalent to $6 today.

So Gone With the Wind is still the all-time champion.

Avengers Endgame is actually number 2.

Here's a quarter, kid.

Buy yourself a real operating system.

If you install Termux on your Android phone or tablet you get a pretty functional terminal/command line.

I use it for for vim and ssh and mutt (email client) and rsync and so on. Even sc-im, which is a very nice spreadsheet.

There's also a way to use Termux to run X11 programs but I've never tried that myself since the phone screen is too damn small.

Old "people" generally live off of their pensions and from money they saved during the years they were working.

They're suppose to pay what they would otherwise have paid to OSS to store their data. So I think the only extra money they're out will be the legal fees. Which isn't nothing but I guess that's the cost of not doing proper and accessible backups.

The article says, "He also ordered Nine PBS to defend and indemnify Iron Mountain should other data be corrupted in the process of retrieving its archival materials."

So the answer to your question appears to be yes.

J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings trilogy (first editions, 1954â"55) â" Among the most valuable modern first editions; still firmly under copyright.

J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Philosopherâ(TM)s Stone (1997 UK first edition) â" Extremely scarce in fine condition and still under copyright worldwide.

Vladimir Nabokov, Lolita (1955) â" A highly collectible first edition that remains under copyright

etc.

They might, eventually.

Future development is a thing. The world went from the Wright brothers first powered flight to a working jet aircraft in just over 35 years.

1. Resource extraction: The moon is rich in resources such as helium-3, which could be used as a clean and abundant energy source on Earth. Extracting these resources would require a permanent lunar base.
2. Scientific research: A permanent base on the moon would provide a stable platform for scientific research, particularly in the fields of astronomy, geology, and physics. The moon's lack of atmosphere and minimal magnetic field make it an ideal location for studying the universe and the Earth-moon system.
3. Space exploration: A lunar base could serve as a stepping stone for future manned missions to Mars and other deep space destinations. It would provide a testing ground for technologies and living conditions required for long-duration space travel.
4. Technology development: A permanent lunar base would spur the development of new technologies, such as advanced life support systems, radiation protection, and lunar mining equipment.
5. Economic growth: The development of a lunar base could stimulate economic growth and create new industries related to space exploration and resource extraction.
6. National security: A permanent lunar base could provide strategic advantages for the nation that establishes it, particularly in terms of space-based surveillance and communication capabilities.

There are probably more if I gave it further thought but this is a start on a list.
