Assuming a 90% mortgage that's 487k mortgage

That's two people on £70k each at a 3.5 multiple. £60k at a 4x multiple.

Two people on £180k would get you a £1.5m house, twice the average semi.

It's semantic bleaching

And this is how you get locked down computing

Then you'd make sure that the owner of the device has the ability to enable this, factoring in some tags for the category

us-min-age:21:drinking gb-min-age:18:drinking au-min-age:16:socialmedia us-min-age:13:socialmedia

Then I can use my existing parental controls (including on a linux laptop if I don't give my 13 year old root) to apply or not apply rules

If I don't want social media regardless, then I apply a rule "no scoial media". Or I can apply "1 hour max" per day for the category

If I'm happy with my 16 year old spending half an hour on playboy.com or whatever, then that's fine too -- I'd rather they went somewhere like that then some of the shadier sites

This gives no power to large companies, but helps the parents, who can apply "default" profiles -- hell you can distribute default profiles as part of the onboarding process.

At least read what you're pasting

Solar on the other hand is very cheap, and you don't need to desalinate 24/7 -- just do it when power is cheapest (which is during the sunny times if you have large amounts of solar, during windy if you have large amounts of wind, etc)

The BBC used to deride Sky for being "never wrong for long", but the race to "break the news" changed that. If the news is about something that happened today it's barely worth looking at.

Personally I get my general news from "The Week" magazine each week, which occupies half an hour on a Saturday morning. It has a selection of articles from across the UK and international press, cut down to give an idea. This week I see ones from The Observer, the Financial Times, The Sunday Times and the Spectator. There's a coverage of america, with input from the NYT, Washington Post, National Review, New Republic, Bulwark and Politico. Elsewhere coverage of Cuba includes stuff from Global and Mail in Toronto, Diaro de Cuba and El Salto in Madrid and 14YMedio in Havana.

Why do people with modern laptops have such little amounts of ram?

I expect some dodgy company to try to shirk out of it, I don't expect a country's cybersecurity agency to do so

If you have a $10B fund which owns things evenly across the nasdaq, and a new company arrives, you have to buy shares in the new company, which means selling existing shares or getting more funding to balance.

So you buy $1B of SpaceX stock at the IPO price, meaning you have to sell 10% or $1B of existing Nasdaq stock, which (when combined with every other fund) lowers the cost of the other stocks.

If I own stock in everything-but-spacex, then I'm seeing the price collapse because everyone else is selling.

Then if spacex stock collapses to half its initial price, your $1B becomes worth $500m, you get margin called, and you have to sell more stock, pushing the other stocks down, and the problem cascades

But it's harder thanks to US actions in the last few years, and especially in countries which can bite back.

Almost every stock in VIG is in the S&P.
