Violating sanctions is a crime, no? And at this juncture, are they not undocumented immigrants?

Personally, I’d rather not deal too harshly with the crew lest we deter others from surrendering their cargo, or worse, decide the they a better off attempting to complete their journey in an unseaworthy vessel. I’d prefer we don’t have a Russian oil & uranium spill.

  1. It’s established
  2. It is a general purpose platform: it has personal posting, business listings, messaging, groups, communities, photos, news, clip format video, live streaming, p2p sales, business sales, event coordination and advertising, payment processing and cash sharing, games…
    Most other platforms do one or several of those things much better than FB, but FB is good enough for lots of people. It’s a one stop shop, and it does a fair job at cross pollinating the various aspects of its platform. It has enough stuff to keep to keep users engaged even if their interest wanes from one or more particular platform components.

Actions > words, Kumquat.

Our elections are a patchwork by design. The requirements to get on the ballot are different for every state.

Totally normal. 21 was your last milestone, 22 was your first year of “I’m older than 21.” Everything after that will be fuzzy except for the decade milestones and maybe the half decade ones.

Yes. Theoretically they can drive people away and make more money if the people they haven’t driven away spend more for less goods.

Let’s imagine on a normal lunch hour I sell 100 burgers at lunch for $4. If I raised my price to $4.50, I’d only sell 80 burgers. If I raised the price to $5 then I’d only sell 50 burgers If a burger costs me $3 then I normally make $1 a burger, but at the middle price I make $1.50, and $2 at the high price.

100 burger x $1 = $100 profit
80 burgers x $1.5 = $120 profit
50 burgers x $2 = $100 profit

The trick is figuring out how changing price will affect demand without pissing all your potential customers off. Restaurants already do dynamic pricing with Happy Hour and Taco Tuesdays etc. They give a “discount” to entice more people to come in when they are less busy.

Could be either depending on the order you watch them, but I’m really getting the giggles thinking about Rogue One ending with a record scratch and “I bet you are wondering how I got here!”

Fair point.

Luckily, digging through OP’s article, I have found the data!

Together, Kroger and Albertsons would control around 13% of the U.S. grocery market; Walmart controls 22%, according to J.P. Morgan analyst Ken Goldman.
