What are these endless calls for funding? Do people only vote if they are saturated with adverts?

I will bitch about heat.,
I will bitch about cold.
I will bitch about sunshine,
and about growing old.
I will bitch about everything,
inside and out.
And if there is nothing,
Well I’ll bitch about that.
Very good, I had a go at an alternate ending.
All valid points, and I didn’t realise the differences in outcomes based on the various counting methods!
That would be complex to explain to many people I’m sure. However, and I’m possibly biased here, there’s a whole bunch of systems I don’t fully understand (car engines, encryption methods, football tournament knock out rules) but I know they work and tend to accept them and at least understand their limitations and outcomes.
I can totally see how people would reject things they don’t understand, and could be easily pushed in to rejecting a new system.
Also I agree that winning an election based on the change could be hard, and perhaps attempting to introduce this change later would work. Though I’m not sure the big parties (labour and conservatives in UK) really want to change a system that works for them!
I have no personal experience of explaining ranked choice.
I can imagine calculating ranked choice vote outcomes is probably pretty labour intensive (without computers).
However people generally understand the concept of how someone comes 1st, 2nd, or 3rd in a race, and I’m sure most people have thought about a ranked list of their favourite movies or football players, so it’s not some completely alien concept.
Instead of just choosing who you want to win, you fill out the ballot saying who is your first choice, second choice, or third choice (or more as needed) for each position. https://time.com/5718941/ranked-choice-voting/
That seems pretty simple to me, unless I’m missing something?
And finally whole bunch of countries manage this without any issues …
Internationally, it is used by voters in Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, Malta, Northern Ireland and Scotland. https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/politics/what-is-ranked-choice-voting-and-where-is-the-system-used/2638554/
Coming from a two party country (UK) the only real issue I see is the fragmenting of power and subsequent need to form endless alliances in parliament. (If I voted for the Greens but the Greens need the the votes of another party and end up doing deals is that really representing my vote…)
Just can’t trust anyone these days…
“D’ya make her?” Sounds like Jamaica.
As in “did you make her go?”
Gaming chairs are a great example; you can often find the same exact chairs for hundreds of dollars cheaper by getting them as an office chair
One could say the overpriced gaming chair with some fancy colours contradicts the “get what you pay for rule”.
I was trying to make a joke about the character model looking like it had fallen through the floor.
I’m not sure he’s digging a hole when he seems to be stuck up to his chest! 😂
Bluetac - no light gets through and it’s usually pretty easy to remove when necessary.
Yes, these precipts seem to be common in the TV industry
Ms Jefferies stresses the guidelines are not trying to put boundaries on storytelling … She says - and “these guidelines are just to bring it even more in line with the best practices in the film and TV industry”.
And I can’t think of news stories that show this is a problem in terms of leaking a story.
So, why not have the same degree of safety and protocols in game development?
Fair enough, I don’t know who, can do what in this scenario.
Edit with a silly comment but I’m not too sure how much a corpse will respond to rough treatment
Apprenticeships… Probs will not be a popular comment, but there’s an argument for learning on the job, if the apprentice and teacher are both at the right level, it’s safe etc.
[Edit] In this scenario it seems it was not the best choice as the teacher should have worn their hearing aid, but the practice of delegating tasks is not a bad thing in general, imho.
Poor lad on the left looks like he’s had enough for today
Though there’s nothing happening in Wales or Scotland that I’ve read about.
Anyone else having problems accessing the site on Firefox mobile?
What had the Japanese planned for the Yamato?
Lol, perhaps, but it doesn’t make your point right and it really doesn’t change history.
It’s a device designed to receive signals ;p
I think for the pagers the consensus is that a particular code would have been sent to the devices.
