That sounds like voter suppression. I’d suggest going the other way and making felons being able to vote.

Real issue is the playing field needs to be levelled. Overturn Citizens United will be a great start and limiting campaign donations to be only limited individual contributions and state sponsorship if a party gets over 2.5%. Any gifts, including whole airplanes and 250B ballrooms would be illegal.

Also stock trading while in office is an obvious conflict of interest. Ideally people in government shouldn’t be allowed to hold stock as that would be a clear conflict of interest. Such as owning stock in Lockheed Martin would be an incentive for going to war.

Just pay reps 200k a year instead. It comes out as around 100M yearly.

Ah, the power bottom.

For sure that’s a thing, but I’d it’s more related to sleep deprivation than neurodivergence. I have a 1 year old and get sufficient sleep so I’m not zoning out all more than around once a month.

Fuck it, just make them work like Flatpaks or snaps and run a minimal android session on top of virtual hardware and install like normal.

On the steam hardware page it says the CPU and GPU are discrete although also “semi-custom” which I think means it’s not Gigabyte and has some cooling features that are tailored to the form factor.

I know my case is specific but having a Jellyfin running on a Steam computer looks to me as good case for having a computer in the living room. Adding a TV applications to Steam such as Netflix is also a case. Then there are people who have their workstation close to the TV so they can use it instead of their laptop and just switch displays with one of these HDMI branching dongles.

I think 1000 or 2000 for me. I know it’s optimal to put it on my mortgage but that’s an amount I would use the excuse of “having to spend it” to spend it on myself. 20k in cleared debt is like 1.4k yearly expense reduced which really moves the needle. If you pay off 1k a month you’re effectively increasing the payoff rate by 12%.

Yeah, and once you get going it’s easier to keep going because of momentum

Only good way to get a house by age 30 is to become a plumber, electrician or other type of job that pays well with minimal study and save up while living at parents or sharing a flat with 3 mates.

Then you need to save heavily and invest in stocks and/or bonds with the saved money so you can beat inflation. With around 30k saved per year it’s possible to get pretty early onto the property ladder.

Going to college and living somewhere in NYC for example will get you nowhere close to 30k a year with student debt and if you have a kid you’re screwed.

Wizard of Oz sepia “filter” fits in here?

I’m also going to in honesty pick Brazil (1985). It still holds up really well.

I really want to see a blockade on the shadow fleet. They don’t even have insurance if they spill the oil in EEZ of countries they’re passing through. It would be a major blow to Russia.

Yeah, with Putin’s approval at 80% it’s hard to see a civil war happening any time soon.

I wouldn’t mind it, only 1% waste is pretty good for a social program.

Also remember the shinobi tournament school shooting.

Download a picture from the Internet, move it to the desktop with the file explorer only. Then print it out.

I live in Iceland and we try to predict volcanic activity all the time and it’s off by weeks or months. To be fair, that’s a blink of an eye on a geological scale so it’s pretty accurate but the nature of the problem is that you have so many forces that all interact with each other.

It’s pretty similar to “how far can you tip the chair back before it falls” but we don’t know the size, weight and shape of the chair really well. You just need one fracture in the rock from previous earthquake to throw all the calculations off.

I don’t know the context of the post but I imagine it’s media related, like a seismologist saying “could be as soon as tomorrow” and the journalist just saying “earthquake tomorrow”. Also seismologist don’t shut up is true.

When it goes on sale 5 years later probably

I hear Mexico is also beautiful and cheaper
