No thanks. There are too many delusional morons that hear it and like it. Society has heard it far more than once and instead of being dismissed immediately idiots are trying to make white supremacist robots repeat it.

Really wish I could follow an individual user on Lemmy! Hey, do you have a good N-bean chili recipe?

Worst case scenario is you're hanging out with a wife and a pal having fun, sounds like a win.

These are like Lauren Bobo, Gaetz, and Green. This is unfortunately not a principled stance but instead because their cult leader told them to "KILL FISA!" IDK if better is the word. It is certainly a broken clock that was correct about that particular time of day.

Simply having something sane like score voting would make third party candidates viable and would increase the people attempting to run even with a difficult application process. We can then work on making it easier to apply.

It's literally just replace FPTP with score (or even ranked choice) and things would improve from there even without other changes to the election system.

Are they absolute morons? "Ok pay me the expected difference up front, plus cover the income tax from that, and I'll do it. No? Fuck off then."

FPTP voting is keeping us from having a functioning and free country.

But they didn't vote to stop surveillance? It was not stopped. They are the majority and they did not stop it.

We just saw an attempted hack from having the xz library loaded into OpenSSH via libsystemd. Linux kernel and glibc are large enough without adding yet another thing that's contrary to the Unix philosophy.

I still have systemd on my distro because that isn't my top priority. I respect the efforts of everyone trying to keep it out and wish them success. Same with every distro trying to use musl.

Looks like the roads from Gary, IN to Chicago, IL have tolls. There's no way a gun could get in across state lines under such close scrutiny!

Oh but that requires money and effort, and creates a fair exchange for the purchaser, no can do. Hardware companies are more focused on how to force people to subscribe to their own devices.
