He should definitely resign from the Senate. I’m not sure if he’s legally allowed to back out of the VP nomination.

I’d have to look at the specific ballots in question. The study I’m thinking of was concerning the NYC mayor election, so it was likely designed by Democrats, but I don’t remember seeing a picture of the actual ballot in the study.

Hells yeah, have at it!

There is evidence that poor voters submit invalid RCV ballots at a higher rate than middle class and rich voters, something that isn’t true under FPTP. It’s impossible to submit an invalid ballot under Approval Voting, so that’s another mark in its favor.

It is incredibly annoying that the worst improvement is the most popular, isn’t it. Do you have the option to put through a referendum in your city/county/state? City referendums are usually accessible enough that you and your friends can commit to getting it done with a little legal help from an established organization like Election Science.

Good point.

Russia already stays far away from Ukrainian controlled Ukraine with their planes, because Ukraine has the ability to shoot them down. We could improve that ability, but they’re still not getting close to flying over land they don’t control.

They gave up pointless cruelty precisely because doing so cost them nothing.

That’s not how math works.

Recently I downloaded Chrome for some testing that I wanted to let separate from my Firefox browser. After a while I realized my computer was always getting hot every time I opened chrome. I took a look at the system monitor: chrome was using 30% of of my CPU power to play a single YouTube video in the background. What the fuck? I ended up switching the testing environment over the libreWolf and CPU load went down to only 10%.

They just pushed an email announcement out, which is probably where OP heard about it.

Rule number one: don’t work with Trump.
Rule number two: get the money upfront.

I wonder if we could force a world where browsers are purely donation supported.

Plus like, we need to be simplifying the tax code, not complicating it.

There’s only one solution for the US. The world’s fastest bullet train network. Anything less will not do.

Eyyyyy midwest.social!

Oh no. No no. They would freak out, claim he was murdered by the deep state, and literally riot.

The micro SD is 4 TB. Only the full sized SD is 8.

It’s pretty tough to say without looking at comparable recall rates for other companies. My Toyota Corolla had two recalls that I know about while I owned it, and Toyota is known for their reliability. Tesla is just always in the news because they’re always in the news.

It’s my understanding that term limits actually end up making for a worse government, because then you end to with a higher fraction of people who are new at their job. Like any other high-skill job, it can take a year or more before you start to get good at what you’re supposed to be doing. Too many freshman means there’s less continuity and stability in the government.

But this is all just a vague understanding, I haven’t read up on it intentionally.
