Nah, if he does away with elections I’ll mail him a postcard that says “I vote for Jill Stein” - that’ll leave him quivering in his boots and solve everything.

You know who is implementing RCV? Jill Stein.

No she’s not - she’s a physician, not a legislator. She’s not implementing anything except (hopefully) health care for her patients. She’s promising to make RCV a political priority, but even if elected, the president doesn’t write the laws.

And that even if is doing some heavy lifting, because it’s impossible for her to get enough votes (50.01%, because a plurality goes to the legislators to decide) to win.

What she can do, is syphon enough votes from from Harris to hand the country back to Trump (who I promise you will not solve the problem of genocide in Palestine), which is why the RNC and hostile foreign powers love to prop her up

Maybe it does, but not in a “we’re going to fix this” kind of way, but in a “we’re going to hand the keys to the castle over to the self-proclaimed dictator who may try to abolish elections entirely” kind of way.

If that’s what you want, just vote for Trump, don’t play around with this third party BS.

Voting for Jill Stein somehow constitutes a revolution?

Which is real fucking rich after the debate where he pretended to be in favor of providing more resources for people wanting to start a family - the exact thing you would strip away if you stopped funding Planned Parenthood.

I’d find the people falling for this grift comically dumb if we weren’t headed full steam ahead into an election that could be decided by just a handful of ignorant rubes.

it definitely won’t meaningfully change the need to drastically reduce the amount of carbon being emitted

You’re right, but this is also the problem. These oil and gas companies are spending so much on lobbying so they can limp along with lines like:

“We’ll be clean as soon as someone else figures out carbon sequestration”

It’s plastic “recycling” all over again. Yes we do need to spend money on studying these types of solutions, but we need to be VERY careful about letting very powerful industries abuse the system and gaslight their way into continued pollution.

Articles like this are an important reminder - if the major oil lobbyists see this as a good thing, we need to be asking why.

Ahh, so he must be a big time jeans traditionalist. Blue or bust.

Explains why he keeps muttering under his breath about the black and brown jeans in this country. It all makes sense now.

How’s about a patent that expires 5 years after its first use by a billion+ dollar company? 5 years after it is used in more than 10,000 products? 5 years after its licensing has yielded over $1M in profit? 5 years after spending over $100k on advertising? 5 years after your first major court settlement?

I think there are ways to protect individual innovators but also lessen patent abuse

It’s a poor analogy, but imagine a public IP like a hotel, there can be lots of guests (clients) at this hotel. Hotel policy is they won’t let any outsiders in unless you know the room number (port) of the person you’re trying to reach.

Imagine you and a friend are staying in separate hotels and want to give each other copies of your favorite Linux .ISOs, but neither of you knows the other’s room number - you show up at the hotel and the front desk tells you to pound sand because you don’t have their room number.

As long as one of you knows the other’s room number though, you can meet.

Torrenting without port forwarding means you can only trade your favorite .ISOs with people who have port forwarding enabled (sharing their room number to the tracker), which makes you less effective of a seeder. Enabling port forwarding allows you to share with anyone (sharing your room number with the tracker).

If you can do Dude Ram Ranch with no pauses then you’ll have earned my respect!

Amen.

All of the banks I’ve used in the past utilize email or SMS for 2FA, which isn’t the must secure, but doesn’t require an app.

It looks like you’re missing the “Manage shared info” section and “Personalized Shopping” link, which yields the above toggle for me (CA, US)…

The question is, is it gone because your privacy laws make it impossible to even offer, or because your privacy laws don’t require them to care about your opinion at all?

“This sub is now entirely dedicated to discussing u/Spez’s involvement in moderating jailbait subreddits”

They tried to damage it.

You say that like they were somehow shocked to find plexiglass in front of these paintings, and somehow didn’t see it or didn’t have the time (casually perusing a museum) to pivot to a different painting.

What, prosecute corrupt oil executives?

Ok, done. Now what?

The elephant is the only animal with 4 knees.

Pretty impressive, finding 1900kg of cocaine worth around €95M.

There’s always cocaine money in the banana stand.

California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed a law, AB 2426, to address concerns over “disappearing” purchases of digital media, including games, movies, music, and ebooks.
