It would be helpful if this included an explanation, rather than just an assertion. Can you explain how FPTP allows this, and how proportional representation fixes it?

Username checks out

Maybe Cory Doctorow can? https://pluralistic.net/2024/04/04/teach-me-how-to-shruggie/

Pretty close! It’s tar-soaked hemp fibers (rope traditionally being hemp), called oakum. Sometimes cotton under that for filling if needed. To me it still feels more about carefully easing out, particularly since paying out also has other uses that aren’t rope related, like falling off to leeward after a tack.

As long as we’re being pedantic, when you pay out pitch, you’re not covering the deck with it. You’re making lines of it that go in between the deck planks. It’s basically caulking. You actually have to be careful to not get it everywhere (not least because pitch is really hot when you’re paying it out), so just like when you’re paying out a line, there’s a sense of careful control and easing out the pitch.

The poor (anyone who already is, or would end up on the street if they stopped working for a couple years.)

I’m hoping you mean “weeks” here rather than “years”. Anyone who could just stop working for a few years without becoming homeless, I would classify as rich.

Always have been

NIST says 2035 should be the target date for organizations to get to something quantum resistant. The talk I saw at DefCon this year laid out a very convincing argument that due to advancements in the implementation of Shorr’s, as well as one other algorithm, that’s not an aggressive enough target and we should really be shooting for 2030. Apparently IBM has never missed a target date, and they’re looking at having enough logical Qubits by 2032 or so.

Don’t have a USB device to plug into it at the moment; I’m traveling. I’ll check when I get home in a week and change though

Yeah, searched around in the settings and in developer options for a bit and didn’t see anything that looked like it.

What Android version is that screenshot from? I don’t see that option on Android 16.

Still seems like voodoo to me

I’ve heard this before but I still can’t wrap my head around why some money counts and some doesn’t

This is the opposite of bag holding though, isn’t it? Since it’s an expanded offering to sell?

He got it right (which makes sense; he coined the term); OP didn’t.

It says right there in the thumbnail: it’s mm-wave radio. They’re radios that talk to each other and form a mesh network.

Another satisfied Framework user here, wondering what kind of struggles you’ve been facing; I haven’t had any problems at all.

Sauerkraut is apparently a reasonable way to store vitamin C for a long time. I imagine cabbage in its own doesn’t keep too well.

I’ve only ever seen Chile as the country.

This right here. Unions are a much more potent way to tell management “that anti-consumer idea is bullshit and we won’t do it.”

I’ve been tech conferencing all week and I’ve already seen two talks about unionizing tech workers. Maybe the tide is turning?
