Honestly modern finance brings us to a point where you really have to ask what the criteria is to actually "spend" the money, given how many businesses that exist purely moving numbers around on spreadsheets and not actually doing anything tangible in the real world

The national average house price in the US is about $300k, so you'd need to buy about 333 houses to spend the $100 million

The lead times on aircraft manufacturing is measured in years though. It's so bad that in many cases airlines will lease aircraft from other airlines to the point that it's all meaningless

There is the Scaled view, but if you have NSFW enabled it really inundates you with porn which might not be what you're going for at the moment

On an unrelated note, anyone want me to trim their armor? 50k for colored trim, 100k for gold trim. Totally legit!

You gotta go with the people who don’t want the job

Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy has got you there!

The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them. To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.

both sides have good points

I seriously wish this were the case. As someone who genuinely finds policy and political theory fascinating I wish I could have actual good faith policy discussions with people who don't mostly agree with me, but the unfortunate fact is the Republican party doesn't have any clear policy other than "whatever is good for the party members individually" or more currently "whatever Trump wants this week" (seriously, what isn't listed at all on the shiny new Republican Party Platform speaks volumes to how the party doesn't have any coherent political ideology to even pay lip service to)

WPA2 is pretty trivial too. Not as easy as WEP since you do have to locally brute-force the PSK (password), but that's pretty quick on modern systems. We had multiple assignments when I was in college that had cracking a WPA2 password as a step (in the interest of time, the instructor used passwords from the RockYou list but still)

WPA2 (and I believe 3 as well) are notoriously easy to crack the passwords to. Wired is truly best for security, and for wireless WPA Enterprise can help with securing the network

That sounds pretty shakey. Federal employees have their own email addresses, but you can't just go ask for a .gov email address, you have to get a job with the government for one. The federal government has plenty of places that only some are allowed to post to. Now, if they were to say, only allow certain people to have accounts with no apperent rhyme or reason that would be grounds for a discrimination lawsuit, but they could simply say "any verified current or former federal elected official, federal department head, or state governor is allowed an account" and expand or shrink the scope as needed. The fediverse honestly makes that so much cleaner than something they host themselves with all of the nuances of what is and isn't federated, the government could simply configure the federation to meet their legal and liability needs while users can stream in from any fediverse instance

I was more thinking in terms of Branch Cache but fslogix and other similar software definitely gives you more options as well
