Yes, that is what I meant - with the wrong word.

The main problem is anonymity. Digital voting where the vote is public is fine - register a gpg key as your 'official' one and sign with it when voting.

You don't want voting to be public though, and any secure digital way to do it is 'public', where after the fact you can see that person x voted y

I was very confused when the screen faded to black when Isobel was downed - I thought I could just get her back up

Had the a52 5g before. It did become quite sluggish over time - and wasn't smooth even to start with.

That's not caused by user bloat - it was just as slow when I reset it before selling it.

Now I have a xiaomi 13 and it does everything basically instantly

Man, articles on her are always fun.

'hurr durr people don't like her'. Yeah, I do neither. Not because she's a woman, but because her content is boring. She's OK enough at DIY stuff, but a man going for the same stuff she does would barely get 500 views a video

You know. I'm Swiss, so a lot of this inflation is very evident to me.

In 2022, 1 CHF was around 0.8GBP. Now, in 2023, 1 CHF is around 0.9GBP.

Guess what, that 8% pay rise was lower than inflation. 8% on top of 0.8 is only 0.864.

Without any more pay in Switzerland, I got an effective raise higher than these 'great' 8% in GB

Yup. The only time I pirate a game nowadays is when I can't get it on steam for the 2 hour refund as a demo.

Well yeah, that was my point.

Americans for some reason love this 'low low price of x$ (+tax +tip +service charge +fuck you charge) thing. Here in Switzerland, it's all in the price. Menu says 40 bucks, you pay 40 bucks. Tips are very voluntary and usually just a "round up" -> total is 57 - let's make it 60.

My wife works in a restaurant and gets around 3.7k a month - the tips she gets add up to around 300-700, depending on the month. In the store she works, tips get handled as a pool where everyone gets their monthly share depending on hours worked (serving staff and kitchen) - so total tips x person hours / total hours by everyone.

It's still a low wage (I make around than double her wage, but then again I'm an electrical engineer), but it is very livable - I lived on a lower wage alone comfortably when I was studying and only working 50%

What i meant is that, in a theoretical mathematically sound world, to support higher wages, you need higher prices. The service charge shouldn't be put as a 'bonus salary' - basically the 'service charge' in most countries is included in the price of the food, and is paid out as the hourly wage to staff.
