When will we prolls wrap our heads around the fact that we have been excluded from the Democratic process by the electoral vote. Not trying to be mean or sarcastic I'm just looking for a timeline.
Neither party is going to let a third party in.
I feel like this is the exact proto-fascist thought virus that makes Americans American. Political parties are not supposed to permit other political parties to hold power,, even if that's not how you intended to communicate the inability of a third parties to win,, it's still a Freudian slip.
If not voting for one political party is an implicit vote for the "opposite" party then there is no party, there is no choice. It's like making the choice to eat or not, there's no choice if you don't eat you die. If you don't vote Democrat you vote Republican, therefore there is no choice (Unless you think it's possible to choose death which I don't think is possible if I want to be consistent with my values).
Even though we know that democracy is not mathematically possible we do know that certain democracies are more democratic than other democracies.
We need preferential voting if we want to improve the situation but if our goal is to go maximum anarco-democracy then just look to that one episode of the Orville where they encountered a people practicing absolute democracy, good show and poignant episode, BAD OUTCOME.
Imo someone needs to be in charge and that someone has to be more responsible than me and not me, and if that's how I lay out my preferences on my ballot then I will have a better government.
pairdrop.net works reasonably well for me
Only reason why I'm so good at programming
Is that Beaver trying to make hot shit-colate?
This is amazing I love it!!
be the change you wish to see in the fediverse
AI really needs dedicated hardware, I feel like if there was more chip manufacturing in the west we might have more diverse chips.
Frankly I'm really confused as to why this llm demand on ram isn't encouraging new companies to manufacture ram. If this is a bubble then we all just wait it out, if it's not a bubble then someone else would swoop in to take up the market.
This feels like more of a 2000s department store credit card dig
I noticed chatgpt was using memories I thought I turned off when it said something really hurtful. I decided to close my account and now I use my own Ollama. Gemma is kinda just as fast but a little stupid, the key is to make sure the model is well informed with enough search results.
Open Webui feels more like chatgpts frontend.
A few months ago I posted him sleeping on the floor concerned bc I thought he was sad...
I guess he kinda was bc he's gotten better.
He doesn't spend all day with me but he enjoys the house and comes around whenever he feels like it.
I work at a stock brokerage and I can confirm this is exactly the screen layouts these people have. By these people I'm talking about day traders I don't actually know what this person is doing.
And yes they do look across all of those screens. I sat next to a guy who had six screens arranged in 3x2, the way he explained it he has all sorts of programs mostly in the domains of communication and news and he doesn't even look at the other screens but when something moves it triggers his peripheral vision and he acts on it. Another day trader I know has nine screens in 3x3 but he only uses the bottom half of his screen real estate because he can't read the top, he just likes having a big rectangular-like screen.
It's all about peripheral vision to these kinds of professionals. They are 100% not looking at all of those screens, they just need to set up things to react to.
This guy is a meme though nobody is reacting to something happening right above your head.
