I’m cynical and already looking at forks

I look forward to future Dr Whos.

I’ve been watching that show for decades, and I have seen the ups and downs.

This cycle of shoddy work is unique because of the era. But if there is any luck I hope to see better dr who later, followed by something equally bad but different.

I would love to see the US states use the same counting solution as in France.

About augmenting counting, I do not know much, there can be many solutions to that ranging from the semi technological (hand scanners) to full automation. But, in my opinion, I like to avoid extra complexity in the process.

I like the idea that the checks come from allowing unlimited recounts done on demand by any representative. I am not sure about the French records, but I think the record in the UK was set in the 1800s in a regional election at something like 37 recounts?

Representatives(s) of candidate watching each counting place, should feel free to be little tyrants to make that building do recount after recount until there is no excuse to do more. Its slow, but at the end there is no dispute, and no possibility of cheating.

I am always interested in hearing about people raising awareness.

I don’t see people defending the newer shows by saying the writing is great or the plot tight. I just see arguments about politics and social messages.

This all assumes all years are measured by the same orbit with no mixing and matching planets or space habitats.

The standard earth year had not been adopted system wide

I just see vendor lock-in. A closed source solution?

End to end encryption already exists for email without everyone using the same service. Using open source solutions.

How many services has google canceled through the years? What happens to email send by this when that alphabet department looses a turf war? Unrelated : how can anyone reasonably trust this company to keep secrets?

I honestly don’t understand this

Thanks for replying.

I spent a few years, off and on, trying to raise interest in such things. Much to my surprise I found nothing going on to rectify this. And few active conversations.

This really did not change among the entire political spectrum from ultra conservatives, to religious, to white suprematists, to centralists, environmentalists, liberals, progressives, socialists ,black lives matters , or environmentalists.

This led me to completely look at American politics as three groups: those who ignore this and are active supporters in political discussions , those that realize this and don’t comment much about it, and those who do not care.

There are conservatives lemmies; the fact you are not on them means you are probably not mega but just old school conservative.

I think a lot of old school conservatives are going caught up in this later in unexpected ways, quite to the surprise of many I am sure, not least to yourself or people here

Few things are as violent and shitty as forcing births on people.

Two takeaways I noted was that the majority of people censoring these cartoons consider themselves part of Democratic Party.

Every large party has their extremists, I am not attacking them on that.

But people who oppress one group find it easy to change their targets, historically. This is very well documented in many languages and histories.

Which is my second point: many of these will join forces with authoritarians should that happen to their government ; and do it openly, some will have what the them are good arguments.

And it’s not only anti Palestinians, pro Israeli.

There will be a lot of new political bedfellows, and it’s going to surprise many.
