  • It’s poorly worded, but look at their link which shows Poland’s election. It will make more sense. The party only received 35% of the votes (the rest of the votes going to opposing parties), but they’d suddenly own 55% of the seats due to this system.

  • Both rounds are deadly out to 1000 yards and beyond, get outta here with that crap. Whether it’s effective or not is irrelevant. You wouldn’t find me not taking cover if someone was shooting at my position with 5.56 800 yards away.

  • This. My sister killed multiple phones per year until she went to phones with good waterproof ratings and subsequently were better sealed.

    She hasn’t killed one since. That’s a lot less waste overall than before.

    I’m not saying this is bad because of that, but I think it’s something people overlook.

  • The proletariat is treated by the bourgeoisie the same as a mob boss treats his underlings.

    Just good enough to make them comfortable, but not too comfortable to elevate themselves or no longer need them. Comfortably uncomfortable.

    I agree with you, but half the US believes certain people aren’t actually people, so we have a long way to go to dismantle the problems of our world economic structure. An armed reform will just lead to authoritarianism, always has.

  • And you see the negative effects of this in many countries.

    Don’t get me wrong, I totally get not having kids for financial reasons. I have kids myself, it’s been incredibly difficult. We’ve had to find the money and make ends meet, but at the end of the day we’ve been able to do it.

  • Once my kids get older they will be taught science properly, and they will be fully aware of the seriousness of our situation.

    I know people keep saying “I don’t want my kids to suffer” but the fact is the only way out of this is getting more younger people out there AND ENGAGED to make a difference. Your child could discover a breakthrough to solve the problem, who knows? More population isn’t the real problem, it’s what that population does and what corporations do in support of those choices.

    I’d rather have taken the shot and failed instead of never trying at all (born and tried instead of never born).

  • Yes, this would be a change to the underlying protocol. I think it’s definitely worth discussing how this problem can be solved by people who maintain ActivityPub. IMHO the Lemmy and kbin developers should also be a part of these discussions as well.

  • In my opinion, we need to somehow solve the community centralization issue first. MultiCommunities, or some way to aggregate the dozens of large-ish groups like “news, technology, etc” and be able to subscribe to all of them in one fell swoop would allow people to spread out to other instances much more reliably.

    I’ve brought this up as a suggestion elsewhere. People seem annoyed at the lemmy vs kbin idea of “communities vs magazines”. Maybe everything is changed to “communities” and “magazines” are officially adopted as community-maintained mega-lists of common communities.

    An example. There’s a bunch of car manufacturers. Sure, maybe I could just select the “Honda” community on every instance I can find, or instead I subscribe to the magazine called “Honda” which auto-subscribes me to every single Honda community in the list… or even the magazine called “Cars” which would include all manufacturers and cars communities.

    Then there could be a Magazine view for that Magazine which would allow all posts from those communities to be aggregated in one place.

    Just spitballing ideas.
