If you don't need perfect accuracy, there are websites where you can have it estimated by holding something like a credit card up to your face (since they're a standard size)

If you're having multiple people all log into an account, then approving the 2FA is a massive nuisance.
I can do it all just fine, but trying to get my mom set up to log in remotely takes a lot of time and effort

Objectively untrue. It ended up being the first medication that worked for me, though I tried stimulants first. Particularly for people with ADHD and comorbid anxiety, it can actually be the best option. It's an amazing drug with the benefit that it lasts all day and night, I can forget to take it for a day or two with and still have the effect, and I don't have to deal with federal government narcotic bullshit, or people stealing it to get high.

That's noteworthy when you are analyzing the results of our tax structure at the time. The US all but had a monopoly on industrial production for many goods in the late 40s and early 50s while Japan, Europe, and the USSR all rebuilt.

Cook 3/4 cup of rice in my rice cooker. If you don't have one, they sell microwavable rice pouches.
Defrost some frozen vegetables - chopped broccoli, peas, corn, edamame, whatever you have. I've also used fresh cucumber, or canned corn if it's all I had. Drain any liquid.
Open a can of tuna and drain it. Put it into a bowl with your veg, add ~2 Tbs mayo, and then to taste sriracha, soy sauce, and rice vinegar (or any other vinegar, just be careful with the quantity because rice vinegar is less acidic).
Once the rice is done, mix everything together. Furikake is good on top if you have it.
The other meal I make while dead inside is just a can of chick peas, olive oil, red wine or apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, pepper and if I have one, a chopped tomato.

Relative to LMG's value, even with a very optimistic outlook for Framework, I doubt it's a noticeable portion of his net worth.
https://frame.work/blog/frameworks-series-a-1-and-community-participation
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the number of videos he's done on Framework, if they had actually been paid "showcase" (aka entertaining advertising ) videos would be worth more than his actual investment.
And Linus does those because his community is interested in the topic. They consistently perform very well.

I feel like this syncs up with the book world: Dungeon Crawler Carl caused a surge of interest in self-published books (especially the LitRPG and progression fantasy genre) by readers and mainstream publishers.
