Fairness isn't necessary to minimize global instability and promote a global economy. In fact, fairness is often antithetical.
If the US relaxed, lowered military spending, and stayed out of foreign affairs you'd see a dramatically worse world almost instantly.

I'm fairly handy, I just lack the tools and space to go nuts with proper fabrication.
If we're talking 100 mil+ I'd probably give up doing any kind of manual labor, cooking, cleaning etc and focus on building a social work foundation I've been thinking about for years now.

FerrousEULA Link ParentI think that depends on the solution. There's no reason for the institutional knowledge to be lost if the pipeline is developed well enough, and people stay on as advisors and staff members.I think that depends on the solution.

Starfield though? It's not that content rich and it's certainly weak in its features.
I don't see how 250MM is possible without significant mismanagement.

I made sure to test commonly used websites with clean wipes so there wasn't any cache.
My desktop is strong with plenty of RAM. Two friends of mine have the same results. Other friends say otherwise. Not sure how that could be.
I even recorded them on desktop for objective timing.

Part of the problem here is the penalty for changing the name on the ballot. If that were required at a certain age, then the party would have to develop a pipeline.
I do not have the faith you do in the American public right now.
It's proven far too easy to spin any topic in such a way that a sizable portion of Americans will rally behind a cause that is clearly against American interests.
