Looks more functional than OOP to me

Bruh, just realized terraforming starts with terra and that’s why it’s what it’s called

I didn’t go to many classes during University, but I remember one class very well, on of the Cryptography classes, the professor spent the entire 2 hours explaining point by point why voting machines are a bad fucking idea and how many new problems it introduces over having to count paper ballots, which is literally the only issue with paper ballots, you need more people, time to count them. They are very hard to fake and if you manage to do it, you can only fake a few votes, compare it with voting machines which are still hard to breach, but if you do you can change election results, this is just the one of many issues.

That’s how I read it and made it funny

I am pretty sure Apple went to court multiple times defending the users data. And refusing to hand it over to the fbi for example.

I used to be in a bad space, getting off the internet more and living life more helps a lot, I am not trying to dismiss your concerns, but I think you will find the real world to be much less extreme than what’s on the internet.

I mostly stopped following politics, the amount of injustice make me angry and unable to function, but I came to the realization that I am not the kind of person who is going to devote his quite literally limited time on earth to trying to fix other people’s stupidity, I go out and vote in elections, then I live my life, that’s it.

Being online and reading people bitching about stuff and saying how bad it’s gonna be doesn’t really get you anywhere only into a bad space mentally, so why read it? I have curated a homepage on lemmy thats almost completely politics free, what’s politics is mostly satire to make me laugh, I feel better, and I focus on being a better me.

And you gave an example of why dog whistles work, plausible deniability.

Yes and the swastika is the symbol of well-being

Pretty sure the blob restraining the powers of president in power is the obstructionist senate, mainly for a democrat president.

Yes I know the EU forced it’s will on Apple, that’s my exact fucking point.

It’s almost as if you don’t let capitalism completely rampant and create new age oligarchs then democracy works.

I guess also should watch an almost 2 hour podcast to find out it’s easier to call things the blob than Super PACs, lobbyist groups and think thanks. Thanks for the link.

Isn’t the far right party getting more votes than ever in Germany?

You can teach people all you want the problem is capitalism is very easy prey to fascism.

No offense but this reads like an edgy teenager’s take on politics, was it the blob who prevented the 10 million people who showed for biden to not show up for Harris? Or was it their selfishness, sexism, racism, misguided idiotic leftism (like you see in lemmy comments about how this is revenge for not taking a stance on gaza)

How come the EU can force change on US companies yet the US fails to do so? Is the blob in the Us, just like alien attacks and pandemics and serial killers in movies?

It’s the dems fault thinking a PoC woman can succeed as the presidential candidate in the current political climate in America

I just bought a car that consumes a lot more fuel than my previous one, but I won’t have kids, so not even cycling vegans can compete with my carbon footprint reduction, only the childless ones.

I knew it, that sick motherfucker switched to Windows 11 voluntarily didn’t he?

A ton of parts of what you are driving, all your maga hats, a ton of stuff that’s in your house

On the other hand I am going to see Jimmy Carr live for like 30-40 euros.

I think that actually has a value, concerts I find to be meh, it’s the same music you listen to anyway just very expensive, worse quality and surrounded by sweat, alcohol and too many people.

I prefer going to a festival and then maybe there is a band like and maybe I discover some new ones.

Well IIRC the ascended where just a previous generation of humans, they still weren’t all knowing and all powerful, in fact anubis tricked them into helping him ascend, they were just smarter more advanced humans who managed to figure out becoming eternal by becoming energy based beings.

Jimmy Carr joke should hit home https://youtube.com/shorts/mUTjyzOOccA?si=qb5AA5DovrFIobwG

The duty to vote in Belgium belongs to all adult Belgians. EU citizens can vote in European and municipal elections. Other foreigners have local voting rights when they have lived in the country for more than five years. Attendance is compulsory for Belgians in Belgium, not doing so results in a fine, 3 fines equals the loss of civil rights.

It can be done, but I was also part of an election oversight or whatever committee, we counted votes and stuff. One of the things we did was we took a vote urn to the local retirement home and well I witnessed what happened when voting is mandatory. In the past It was mandatory in our country as it was part of the eastern bloc and this man just took the first paper, not even reading which party he voted for and just put it in the envelope and voted that way.

So there are definitely downsides to trying to encourage voting too.

Because any sort of goodwill attempt to eliminate people from voting will just increase the chance of it being abused by said nazis, well fascists, because nazis were the fascists from germany.

Also fun fact, like many things IQ tests have a history rooted in racism, so if your plan was to use that then bad luck.

Fun fact number #2 the likes of Trump, Orbán (HUN), Fico (SVK) almost always win because of a low voter turnout.

The previous US election had what, 20 million more voters and surprise surprise, Trump lost.

Extremists are always a passionate vocal minority the more you restrict who can vote the easier time they have to take over the election.

If anything suggesting fines for not voting is a far less dumb idea than the shit you just said.
