Ditto, typed this on my 2xl. I am up for a new phone. But why invest in one when my current device still works so well.

The irony is that I think you would love Plato's republic. I think everyone is seeing shades of racism hence the downvotes. Nonetheless your critique of democracy with universal suffrage is not new and has some valid points. I think th

If I recall correctly, some states would actually throw out or invalidate your entire ballot if you do a write in. If memory serves Oklahoma was one of them.

If both candidates fail to represent me, why should I reward either one with a vote? Sometimes both sides can be equally contestable. I know with all the get out to vote propaganda in the United States we're all told that we should par

I think a better option would be if I could rate candidates on a scale of 1 to 10. There's some interesting research on these voting systems, if one of my candidates has no chance of winning my next best candidate will get my vote. it

The real barrier is a two-party system that only serves the extremes on each side, in the United States at least.

I have over 80 IOT devices and three aps. I also live in the middle of nowhere. That being said, I like how all the commenters just go straight to de-auth attacks. The proper solution is to get up knock on the door and talk to them about th

So all the things he mentions hating about Texas culturally are the things I enjoy. I think this may further drive the point home about how much we differ culturally in each state. I have had family in Austin since the 70's and they ar

I like the honesty on https://collapseos.org/civ.html but I get a very John Titor vibe from the author- To be honest if we have the collapse he envisions I think most people would be too worried about food to care about boo

I was really hoping for a technical deep dive into the failure. Sadly the article was mostly fluff and just mentioned a possible "manufacturing issue". I have been unable to find further details on this blurb. IF you are reading t

Yeah I hate it, I do have some friends who have upgraded their head units with canbus interfaces that allow aftermarket head units to control things like heated seats and climate. To them the cost was worth it- I am still too cheap.

Working with political groups for social media I have to disagree with you. Obama actually was a turning point where everyone basically agreed that social media is the one true way to keep your base engaged. https://www.gsb.stanf

I think we would also be hard pressed to find a political campaign succeed without the use of Twitter, Facebook, AWS and others. To claim that someone can successfully reach the masses without those tools is - an interesting proposition I p
