I never really paid attention to the level gain ratio. I’d look here for that kind of question.

Since people are posting games, I’ll throw in Realms of Despair
$126,500 per person, plus another $20,240 in housing expenses. Plus your $13,850 standard deduction (though if you’re making that much you’re probably itemizing for more). So $160,590 for an individual or $321,180 for married filing jointly. That’s assuming no kids and no other deductions or credits - which is pretty unlikely at that income level.
$160,590 is the 93rd percentile for US income distribution. So yeah, if you (AND your partner, if any) are both in the top 7% income bracket, bad at tax preparation, and don’t hire an accountant, you might still pay tax on the income over that amount. Of course, making that much while keeping the kind of ethics that let you care about anyone other than yourself is a nontrivial endeavor.
Don’t forget that your foreign employer won’t be reporting to the IRS. So if your protest extends to not voluntarily reporting that excess income …
Not necessarily. There is a foreign earned income exclusion, so if you pay income taxes on it in the country where you’re living you don’t pay taxes to the US.
A less euphemistic term in English is “regulatory capture”
That wasn’t luck - it was best practice backup strategy.
The way this works in the server world is “95th percentile” billing. They track your bandwidth usage over the course of the month (probably in 5 minute intervals), strike off the 5% highest peaks, and your bill for the month is based on the highest usage remaining.
That’s considerably more honest than charging you based solely on the highest usage you could theoretically use at any time point in a 24 hour period (which is how ISPs define the “max bandwidth”) and then charging you again or cutting off your service if you use more than a certain amount they won’t even put in writing.
Completely different flavor, unfortunately
Nope - it was Unix not Linux. The minus makes the command invalid on many Unix versions of tar (though most modern BSD versions allow it)
Sorry, it was Solaris - you just blew it up (the minus is invalid on many Unix versions of tar)
Good news - you still can!
Seriously, open a new tab on your browser NOW and jump on eBay or whatever and buy it. Even if you aren’t surprised by how much fun it still is (which you probably will be), you’ll be able to stop regretting NOT having it. No downside!
Assuming this is USA, the phrase you’re looking for is “Am I being detained, or am I free to go?”
For a more detailed answer, this is what the ACLU has to say.
And the ICJ didn’t dispute that. They said that the convention the case was brought under defines “financing” as money only, so supplying weapons and training camps doesn’t qualify as “financing”.
Off topic, but as a pen lover - those are lovely! Especially enjoyed the second two from the left.
Thank you - fixed!
Even more specifically, Calcium Hydroxide is “slaked lime” (also called “pickling” lime, as opposed to the even more caustic “unslaked lime” (Calcium Oxide)
Definitely scrambled. If you freeze as-is, the yolks will gel and remain that way when thawed.
Your other option is water glassing rather than freezing, but that only works with fresh, unwashed egs (not store bought). Also be aware most recipes you will find on the internet are wrong! Proper waterglassing should use Sodium Silicate, not lime lye (Sodium Hydroxide).
Edit: Corrected - see below. Also, be aware that “lye” in older recipes can refer to any basic (as opposed to acidic) solution, and was more commonly potassium hydroxide leached from wood ash rather than sodium hydroxide.
You don’t need to run an X server on the headless server. As long as the libraries are compiled in to the client software (the GUI app), it will work. No GUI would need to be installed on the headless server, and the libraries are present in any common Linux distro already (and support would be compiled into a GUI-only app unless it was Wayland-only).
I agree that a GUI-only installer is a bad thing, but the parent was saying they didn’t know how it could be done. “ssh -X” (or -Y) is how.
No bother!
For customization, you want a MUD client rather than a standard telnet client. I used zMUD back in the day, but FLOSS was harder to come by back then. These days, I’d go with mudlet.
