This isnt going to work out like you imagine…
One billionaire with zero votes can just post some AI disinfo and sway 100 idiots who now have 100 votes…
People routinely vote against their own interests, and poor people hurt themselves the most…
I mean, temporarily embarrassed millionaires…
Same with ck3. over 300 hours and i still feel like i dont know what i’m doing…
I dont hate it though
It’s such a broken system that our public institutions rely on “philanthropists”, whether it be libraries, museums, and especially hospitals… just tax these fuckers properly and fund our instititions like a normal society
Highlights of the race for me:
mads climbing for those green jersey points… what a madman, i love it.
Pogi playing domestique for IDT. Those two are so wholesome.
Carapaz attacks
Disappointments:
Pushing back is investigative journalism or opinion pieces. Which are a vital parts of a healthy newsroom, of course.
But for the most part, reporting the news is supposed to be just copy pasting what politicians say.
if mark carney says “pipelines are good”, it’s the job of the news to report that mark carney said “pipelines are good”… thats not an endorsement of pipelines. It’s just reporting the facts… it’s not the job of the CBC to colour that news with their own opinion, even if its something you and i agree with. Thats how you end up with shit like fox news
What are we testing them on? Some “basic skills” become irrelevant over time and the testing should reflect that.
We dont test kids on how to use a slide rule any more.
The advent of the calculator has likely made us all dumber at mental math, but that doesnt mean we havent gained skills elsewhere.
Just ignore the tourist trap stuff and support local farmers.
I dont use any of the smart features, so unless it’s injecting ads into the HDMI inputs, it doesnt affect me
I prefer to call them whitey whackers
Well then i would need to make sure the new screen has the latest firmware.
I dont think connecting my tv to the internet for 5mins is the end of the world. I’m not THAT paranoid
Although i noticed that the tv made 100 dns requests the moment it connected
You should maybe connect it once for update. At least check firmware update changelogs to see if anything is relevant.
I have an LG and experienced a weird picture problem for over a year… it was infuriating. Firmware update fixed it.
$sudo apt install realtek-firmware-nonfree
“NOOOOOO SO USER UNFRIENDLY!!!”
“On windows all i have to do is go to regedit, then HKEY/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/classes/someObscureSetting, then select DWORD and change the value to 0x0011111, then save and reboot. SO EASY AND USER FRIENDLY!! Thanks microslop!!!”
I thought the british spelling was “peter file”
I’m already seeing this and regretting this in my 40s… relatively young, but a lot of little problems that my peers brush away as being inevitable, i know i could likely have avoided if i was more active in my youth.
And all thesr little issues pile up over years until people throw up their hands and say “its just getting old, nothing i can do!!”
Its all about probability. Nothing in guaranteed. But i could probably avoid a lot of issues if i was more aware and active in my youth…
I’m super active now, and i aspire to be like an 82 year old man i met who walks 20km every day
Me too, fam :(
5pm signals the end of my working day serving capitalism, but also i can go back to using FOSS
Double relief
Whipper is supposed to be (almost) as paranoid as EAC? Its been years, so my memory might be faulty.
But he only came second!!!
/s
Easy answer.
Cheer for whoever the fuck you want except for in games that involve canada.
Cheer for canada during their games, even if it is against the country that you or your ancestors came from…
I assume she actually accepted the honour, unlike traitor wayne gretzky
She should be the only person calling the men’s team to give a pep talk
You’re literally proposing to give 100x more voting power to the people being influenced by billionaire propaganda… that is absolutely NOT what already exists today
