They just print my ballot out on a laser printer when I go to my polling place. My town has one poling place but you can have different districts depending on where you live.

If you have a bunch of people guess how many M&M’s are in a jar you can average the guesses and you’ll come very close to the correct amount. A recommendation system can be very democratic in that way. When reddit still had their public API I would take advantage of this fact and use it to decide if something was a “deal” or not on PC parts. I was tracking the prices of computer ram at the time as an experiment. It worked very well. If they are federated properly, then their content can be filtered and appear on an instances front page.

I can definitely see certain brands doing well with their own forums. Sports teams would be a very good niche for hosting their own instances. Another one would be the entertainment industry. It’s just not feasible for companies that aren’t interesting to talk about. Like there won’t be a Coca-Cola instance worth a lot of users.

“Metaverse” was the idea that you would use only Meta services instead of the wider Internet. Much like AOL and Yahoo tried back in the 90s and 00s.

The bill text excludes video game consoles completely.

I was upset when games like world of warcraft were charging for online play. I could see it back then that companies would charge you multiple times just to play games.

It’s hurting the commuting industry.

There’s no nuances to it. They waited too long, everyone affected should have known that this would happen one day.

In keeping with Nintendo naming conventions it with be the “switch u” or more likely “switcheroo” It will be a VR based system that seems like an add on peripheral for the switch, but is actually a new system that nobody buys due to confusion and lack of titles.

I ran it for a little while, but it was too much work to set up what I ultimately wanted it to do. On top of that I don’t want to have touch it after I set it up. I use a lot of dumb motion sensors instead. Not the best solution sometimes, but better than having constant downtime at the worst time.

The thing is, I don’t have any sympathy because they’ve had half a century or more to consider this issue and nobody did anything. If you bought a plane knowing it requires leaded fuel, then it’s your responsibility to fix it or ground it.

There’s other ways to increase octane, but the faa hates allowing changes.

Marketplace became the defacto replacement for craigslist in my area 😔

Some states are switching to cashless bail by default because there’s so many people rotting in jail for not having $100 to their name.

The main issue is that they’re using “safety” as a shield to hide behind actually fixing the problem. Any time someone says something is for “safety” they’re full of shit.

“required for safe operation” aka we’re a bunch of fuds that refuse to change anything.

They could easily phase it out, but there’s no political will to do so. It would cost money to find a replacement and those poor private plane operators would have to suffer the costs, boo hoo. Anyone living within 1 mile of an airport is being contaminated with lead in the air on a daily basis.

Yes, you can rewrite something in your own words and as it isn’t copied verbatim, then it isn’t infringement. You can’t copyright the idea of something.

I read an article in NYT and then I used the information to make money. Come sue me.

This CEO just started like yesterday, they’re still in their probationary period.

There’s a lot of dumdums out there who will fall for this shit.
