You should see an increase, but likely small. Since the end point increased and since the curve only increases between upgrades, that means that all points before the end point must also increase. However, most of the benefit is now granted in the first half of the upgrades possible, so at your level the increase per level will be smaller than it was before.

It is my understanding that the statues that he's being charged under do not depend on the classification of the documents. The problem is that the documents belonged to the government and were not returned upon multiple requests. Therefore, even if the documents were declassified, which they were not, the same charges could still be brought against him.

There are a few games that you might miss out on with this method. Some devs (it's not many) list their games at what they think is a fair forever price and will not ever offer the game at a reduced price. Again, this isn't a lot of devs, but one notable one is Wube, makers of Factorio.

I generally agree with your method, mostly because I have a large enough backlog to be able to wait for sales, but it is also worth doing research on some devs to see if a sale will ever happen.

When a fraud department calls you, you don't need to provide any more information than your name and yes/no answers. If they are asking for any additional information, tell them that you don't trust their authenticity and that you'll call the number on the credit card. A legitimate agent will politely end the conversation there.

Then you better call that number on the card quickly.

Sikhs aren't Christians so they don't get the same rights as Christians do according to the Supreme Court.

In 20 years, we could be up to 48 presidents or more, so you're right, trump's rating could get even lower. Hopefully no one beats him.

Well the repubs stopped him from doing all the things that would have made him amazing, so he obviously totally sucks.

I'm guessing it's an aluminum oxide abrasive? The abrasive is flourescing due to the little bit of uv coming out of the LEDs.

You might find this interesting, if you are grinding iron or steel then the grinding surface may not flouresce due to the iron bonding with the aluminum oxide.

They do great work, but they don't market and promote their successes well enough. I would prefer a society that favors humility more and therefore appreciate this administration's style, but it seems that a lack of hubris is now considered a fault in the public eye, on both sides of the aisle.

It is possible to make glass and ceramics that are resistant to shattering from fair hard impacts. I don't know if that can be employed here, but there are other ways to deal with the problem.

Additionally, if 100,000 TB is something that people can carry by hand, then it is also possible to back up those drives relatively easily (relative to that technology).

Lastly, current silicon fabs have boxes of wafers that at the final stages can exceed $1M in the retail value. They have robots that handle those. If the 100,000 TB is worth something close to that, then a human will not be carrying it.

Honestly, I'm not sure why all movies over 2 hours don't have them, inserted by the theater so that they can sell more popcorn and candy.

Doesn't yelp let businesses erase poor reviews for a fee? Is the only difference here that yelp isn't getting paid?
