Yes, we lease it back from the company we sold it to, and that way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.

The machine tests your document control system, to ensure the systems are in place to handle documentation from foreigners with no English language skills. You need to replace the fuse.

I was researching the pic in the post below, and found this: Offensive Adult Party Game[^] and you'd have to be clinically brain dead to enjoy playing it.
Then I saw the pledges ...

Think about it... It is a rather easy - and considered to be legal - way to get the money out of some morons... Better then the old spam system...

Wow really, they need a card game to let them say what they mean?

I'm sure some people do, as SJWs will otherwise tell them they're not allowed to speak their minds.

It's a joke, a spoof on "Cards Against Humanity". It is taking the pee out of people who like those games and as the project isn't genuine it will eventually get deleted by kickstarter so it won't cost the backers any money. You seem to be the only person who doesn't get it

Trouble is I've seen enough Twatter and Farcebok posts to believe that idiots are for real, and that some of them are genuinely too dumb to find their own asses with both hands and a map ...

The only way I think that a device like that could be useful is if the spoon could analyze the chemicals used in whatever you were eating.
On second thought... maybe best to leave well enough alone. I think I would stop eating if I new what really is in all of that processed food we get from the market.

What your really don't want to know is what's in the unprocessed food. Trust me on this.

Start with the more pleasant components - like insect parts and rodent feces.

I'm not gonna worry about rodent feces when manure spreaders are considered standard equipment on a farm. And I'd rather see that in use than something like RoundUp used in industrial quantities.
As for insect parts...there's an entire movement that's trying to get people off of meat and onto "protein substitute products" made entirely of insects. To prevent cow farts and thus reduce global warming, y'know?

Manure spreaders spread the manure on the ground - not into the package. And tell me - how (or more precisely, what) will weed the fields if they don't use Roundup? Do you think it's better for you?
And, per eating insect being an improvement over cattle and not enhancing global warming with the much more global-warming active methane in their farts? Check this out: insects, as in termites (an often eaten species) are enormous producers of methane[^]. Estimates range up to 40% of methane emission (and that include emissions from rotting vegetation &etc). It will go up when insects are 'farmed' for food. And consider this: WTF will we feed the insects and how do we get it?
If you want to do this right - then stop eating any sort of animal protein. Huge amounts of farmland land could then be re-forested, for example, further decreasing greenhouse gas emissions. Until then, you can consider yourself a personal source of excessive greenhouse gases, even when you don't fart.

I take for granted that you are aware of the SmartFork: SmartFork[^]
This fork has been on the market for a few year now, at USD 99.99 per fork. If you lift the fork to you mouth too often your mobile will buzz, warning you that you are eating too fast. Also sold as HAPIfork.
The accompanying knife does not have any similar functionality. Somehow I wish that it had a similar function, buzzing my mobile if I stab other people too often. Of course it would never buzz my mobile, but I am eating in a healthy way, too, so the fork doesn't buzz my phone either. Or rather: It wouldn't have, if I had decided to spend USD 2400 on a set of 24 of them for my next big party.
