Go home Clippy, you’re drunk

Just lie and then do it anyway. It worked to corrupt SCOTUS, it should work here.

No, please don’t split the vote against FPTP. That’s how you get more FPTP.

As she should.

We have them in Torino in Italy where I now live. There are a lot more than I would have expected.

But don’t get complacent. It’s possible the polls this year are over-correcting for that. We won’t know for sure until the election is over.

Not only that. You may need a quite healthy margin to overcome the various voter suppression and other plans the Rs have in place to steal the election. A Texas sized margin might do.

The republicans pretend to be smart? IDK?

That’s because the “Did Vote Too” vote is split by the two parties. Clearly we need one of them to drop out to defeat the real enemy.

Edit: although the real real enemy is FPTP and the EC which is the root of all this nonsense.

Wait, wasn’t that superseded by links and then links2 like 20 years ago?

It cannot think, it cannot learn, it can only predict.

That’s a distinction without a difference. If it can predict what a AGI would do in a given situation, then it is an AGI.

I’m not saying that it is an AGI, but the reason it it isn’t is more than “it can only predict”.

They get fed to the sharks. That’s why you so rarely hear of shark attacks. A well fed shark is a safe shark.

Perhaps, if the participation goes down another smidgen, they can also do something about the scourge of drop bears!

Don’t forget the sticky bit and chown root for extra convenience!

Multiply by the reciprocal to divide. Or judiciously divide in a modulus group to make the number bigger. Mathematicians have seen some shit.

There is zero chance that they’ll just build from the latest main branch and release that tomorrow. Or that whatever build they make goes directly to general distribution.

They’ll make a build from the last release plus this patch and send it to a few customers who have complained. Then they’ll think about making a release with this and perhaps other bug fixes.

Is it viewed as Abad thing to be in that group?

Who cares!

Sounds delightful

Amen!

I got big Shure headphones supporting aptX HD (and that Sony codec) both to my little NAD amp and my phone. The Sony earbuds only support the proprietary Sony lossless codec and only to the phone, but they’re for walking around, so that’s fine.

It’s not hard if you just make this a requirement when picking your kit.

Obviously no Apple stuff.

There are many forms of democracy. Representative democracy is one and you seem to like direct democracy. I know that I don’t have time for direct democracy… there is just too much going on. But there might be a middle ground.

Short form is used in English only and was reluctantly adopted outside of the US since the 'mericans weren’t going to budge. Any science done in other languages uses the more logical form. I’ve done it myself in 3 of them. And it’s weird how I fluently translate between American billion and international milliard or American trillion and international billion. But I’m sure there is going to be a rocket blown up over this at some point.

Why more logical? Billion, prefix bi for 2 is million squared. Trillion, prefix tri for 3 is million cubed. Septillion, prefix sep for 7 is? Honestly, though, at the end of the day it doesn’t matter that much. It’s just grating that were being yanked backwards. However slightly. And yes, that pun was intentional.

Sure, the US didn’t come up with the imperial measuring system but everyone else has moved on. Miles were used by the Romans but were they the same miles? Everyone had their own foot… the story about Napoleon being short was simply that he was measured in French feet and they were longer than English feet so he amounted to fewer of them. I guess it’s slightly better now that there is only one set* of archaic pre-enlightenment units in play :shrug:

*having said all that, some of the US measurements don’t quite coincide with the UK ones but I can’t remember any if those details. But it’ll probably kill a other rocket too.

PS I dare you to look up the Swedish mile.

Only in English is this weird naming system used and originally only in American English. You can put it in the pile over there with the miles and pounds and other oddities.

Other languages have milliard between million and billion, billiard after billion etc.
