purely on the basis that they work elsewhere.

Do you mean working elsewhere, with elsewhere being other levels of government, or elsewhere being other countries?

Either way I disagree, but I want clarification first.

I’m rewatching it again, this time with my girlfriend because she hasn’t seen it yet. We’re currently 3/4 of the way through Matt Smith’s doctor.

So maybe this time he will grow on me.

And then you promptly split the vote, allowing a party ideologically furthest from you to dominate.

Ah, that would explain it. I checked out once Capaldi joined.

That must have been the old Doctor Who, because I don’t remember seeing an episode like that.

But that’s a very Doctor Who style plot line lol

but either one of two things is true:

It’s worse. It’s both, which is in part why third parties don’t ever work.

And the solution is election reform, not yelling “just vote for what you believe”. Because people just voting for what they believe causes spoiler candidates to spoil elections.

we’d probably see a third party in American politics…

No, we wouldn’t. There are still people who’s closest candidate is one of the two main parties.

By the time you knock a hole in the wall with your own body, you’re gonna be a bloody pulp.

At work we get around this by not having docker or anything similar set up in the first place.

I’m getting tired of it lol

Yar har

Not sure, but other alternatives do embrace it. I use FreeTube, and it has a built in function to use DeArrow. I’m loving it so far.

Oh I know, I’m right there with you. But I get a level of entertainment out of it.

I don’t think the people who are supporters of jury nullification are saying such laws are fine.

I disagree. Laws aren’t always moral. Texas could outlaw donations to the Rainbow Railroad and it would be wrong, the organization should still exist.

But in this case it is pretty clear that the plagiarism machine is in fact, bad and should not exist, at least not in it’s current form.

They didn’t mention personal stuff

I can’t say I’m familiar with that particular event. But I’m guessing there is a difference there in that iMessage is well, a messaging service. YouTube isn’t, their videos are on public webpages.

All Freetube and company needs to do, if it comes to it, is find a way extract a video from a public webpage. There’s a million ways to do that.

iMessage is not a public webpage, and so there is no real way around it unless you go through their api.

Youtube/google/alphabet are almost certainly aware it exists already. The only real risk is too many people switching to it.

But even then there isn’t much they can do to stop it’s use. They can’t tighten up or remove their api, but then page scraping will take over. They can obfuscation their page, but that will not work forever.

It’s a cat and mouse game that is impossible to win for them.

Even so, having more software natively supported will always be a good thing. Half the reason why people drag their feet on switching to Linux is because of the lack of support for their favorite software.

A constitutional republic is not mutually exclusive with democracy.

This is like saying “it isn’t a car, it’s a vehicle”. No shit it is a vehicle, but the type of vehicle is “car”.

Is your computer networked? If so, that’s a bad idea
