What if I take 38 years of university courses in microelectronics and invent a new form of tracking device capable of functioning from a hammer-resistant solid state monocrystalline lattice to send and recieve data instantly from anywhere on the planet, then conceal that in the stuffed animal toy?

Can I send money overseas from Australia?

I've actually had someone successfully send me something from New Zealand before. It came in a discrete brown envelope with no return address, like, the very next day after I got SWAT'd by Sam. My mom and I were treating it like it had anthraxx or a bomb or something. Eventually I just nutted up because I was pretty much ready to go at that point anyways and out slips $100 and a postcard with a drawing of kiwi and the message "Keep trucking, little kiwi" printed on it. I still have that postcard in my backpack.

Sweet. I might do that, then. I always just assumed that sending cash overseas was illegal for some reason.

EDIT: It is in Ausfailia. Drat.

People warn not to send money in the mail because it might get stolen but my grandparents even sent me cash by mail to the Philippines for Easter and it arrived just fine. I think if the Philippines can receive cash, Australia and the US should no problem. I'm pretty sure tampering with the mail is a felony in both countries. Not worth $20.

I am not smart with this shit. I have a question that I hope can be answered. 75% of the time the extent of my computer use is a browser, snipping tool, MS Word and sometimes MS Excel. When I am doing that I am pretty cool. Even today I was fine, didn't notice a difference. 10-15% of the time I have either SPSS, STATA or StatGraphics up. These programs will slow my shit down hard and at times my computer will even lock up. If I am at like 25-50%, will it nuke me? or does this thing adjust to accommodate the needs of other applications?

Didn't see this answered so far.

Basically your computer will just go slow if its overloaded. Pretty much any and every processor has a thermal switch where it will severely slow down itself in order to cause damaged caused by overheating. It might cause a hard reboot or system crash if its not feeling good, but it shouldn't generally be able to cause any permanent damage unless you have overclocked it.
The only reason your computer would overheat is because of the fan/heatsink being broken/improperly set up or if your computer is completely filled with dust. Basically anyone who uses their computer semi regularly without issue should have 0 issue with this.
With some processors its unlikely to reach 100% capacity except for tasks like mining so some issue may pop up with temperature if/when it reaches 100% usage on a constant basis (some processors automatically overclock a small amount when they need to).

The biggest issue will be for people who have laptops as they're all pretty much shit when it comes to keeping cool. Even so, it shouldn't ever cause any lasting damage.

If your computer does slow down its processor due to temperature issues or does hard reboots then it isn't configured properly. Most times when people custom build computers they will run software to use the CPU 100% for several hours (like this mining can do when set to 100%) to try and identify any faults and fix them.

For lifespan, the CPU is generally not going to have to have any issues caused by using it 100% for eternity. Graphics cards (which this miner does not use for this site) can have lifespan issues.
