And then everyone clapped

Same, and I’ve tried others. I want the app drawer to have tabs, I want to change the folder appearance… Use gestures. Something is always missing.

This will lead to the majority of the state getting full say and suppressing minority views. This can be political, racial, etc.

California has a large Republican population. If it goes state wide they get zero voice as the full state will go blue.

These days I’m kinda fine with that, but in principle this is wrong. The same suppression logic can be spread to ethnic groups, etc.

One of the main complications in the US is the racial mix. Looking at party lines and geographic boundaries is an over simplification

Say 20% of the population is black, and the state has five reps. Two neighboring cities each have 30% black population, and enough population to have two of the five reps. The rest are dispersed in rural areas. Do you draw that each city gets one rep? Or do you draw such that a district has a majority of black residents, with funny boundaries to accommodate the geography?

The former means that you will more likely end up with a white representative for both cities and the voice of the black community are not heard in the legislative body. The latter means that you have now gerrymandered to ensure a group gets a voice they deserve.

This is the real pain in the ass about the whole thing. Some level of drawing stupid districts is needed to create good. Pure geographically created boundaries will only cause segregation if we want minority groups to have an equal voice in the legislature.

But, people in power tend to fuck everything up.

How would you classify this? I know it to be fake, but its created to make a point. But its good enough that someone could be fooled intl believing it was real, no?

I hear you, but this is subjective and not objective. A bad faith actor, presumably an authoritarian government, can exploit laws like this to advance their agenda. “Yes, I was definitely convinced that was George HW Bush”.

Subjective judgements are ripe for abuse of power, sadly.

It’s a slippery slope from something that is otherwise well intentioned.

Define what a deep fake is over a parody or other political commentary.

All of the labels in these stores are e-ink displays.

Further, there actually are shelves with American goods, but surprisingly, goods that come from outside the EU are not limited to the US…

There are several people who will say “an historic” while fully pronouncing the H and acting all smug and proper about it.

A Ukraine? Really? Why couldn’t you use something practical like a university.

Discussions on retaining ISK over the euro are not based on how difficult it is to swap the currency or change systems that use cash.

It’s about retaining control over monetary policy, which is centrally decided in the eurozone.

Let’s see if he contests extradition

These lists are completely disingenuous. Just because something was the first use case doesn’t mean it was the only use case for a thing.

For example. Freeze dried food. It’s completely impossible to say we would not have freeze dried food without the space program.

They can paint on the old mink farms

Oh no think of all the taxes they suddenly won’t be paying.

Same! I refuse to update it and got a little annoyed at a post I saw where the dev (at least I think it was him) said “hey it’s 1 year later and the world hasn’t exploded”. Found that a little annoying.

Let’s hope he gets control of the app back and can do nova again, without this shit baked in.

Edit: guess I should have RTFA first. Gross
