That is unfortunate. I haven’t used that in awhile, but when it worked it was relatively easy

Glad to see more alternatives around. I have been using pairdrop.net, but it fails pretty readily on large transfers since it needs a constant connection. I’ve also tried transfer.sh in the past (lets you set an expiry and password if using with commandline) but I don’t think that encrypts automatically and it stays on their server.

Most modern democracies don’t enforce First Past the Post by law, and don’t have a winner-takes-all system. A better strategy is to primary democratic representatives as much as possible, and take over down-ballot positions as soon as possible. That way we can make steps towards dismatling Citizen’s United, repealing all the laws that prevent moving away from FPTP, and implement RCV.

I am more than willing to try, if not for the fact that splitting the left would cede electoral victories to the right for several cycles while people figure out what “the new left” is. If we do this in our current era, Republicans will actually kill us while we sit on our ass and convince ourselves to split our vote (as has been shown with the most recent administration)…

This has been shown in history-- every time a third party tries to get made, the opposition party wins for several cycles. The most notable of which is (imo) Theodore Roosevelt’s Progressive party in 1912. It got 27% of the vote (2nd in terms of popular vote and won several downstream races). But, the left vote was split by 27%, so the right won by a very large majority. They decided to ultimately dissolve and infiltrate the left wing party.

Followup question, if you don’t mind! What still needs to be maintained on the Win32 system on behalf of the Fedora maintainers? If everyone has moved on from 32bit, and the old stuff doesn’t change, where is the maintenance requirement? Could we not find a “final” version and leave it static, but still available in the package manager?

Is it that packaging requirements change for different systems to keep up with hardware drivers/new package managers/kernel removing deprecated features/security vulnerability patches?

IIRC, Netherlands tried to limit long term airbnb in multiple cities, but the data has shown that long term rental prices still increase over time. Some cities’ airbnb regulation has actually raised rent prices due to the further limited supply.

More housing needs to be built. Granted, I haven’t looked into if there are any limits on corporate ownership of housing, regulations that make contruction more expensive, or what the percentage of communal housing cooperatives/rent-to-buy is, which could also make a difference compared to other countries.

I read in another comment that there is a type of rubber bullet that has a steel ball inside- if those are shot at the floor and bounce, the ricochet can result in something like the reporter that needed calf surgery. Either way, it is fucked. Bring a cup like you’d use for football to protect your groin, and I read that skateboard helmets tend to offer more protection from the side and back of your head. I wouldn’t bring a kid if there is a chance of armed civil enforcement.
