we’d like to shoot them down before US personnel are killed potentially escalating this even further?
So we’re sending more personal instead of getting them out of the situation? Gymnastics.
It’s not a genocide.
Why not?
The sneaky thing about RCV that the second link points out is the the fact that RCV doesn’t actually eliminate the spoiler effect. A way to think about is that RCV is idential to FPTP, just done over several instant rounds. So it has some of the same issues, just lessened.

Raising the minimum wage will cause inflation

No it doesn’t
I’m not saying that the democratic party is good on this front. I’m saying that the republican party, the ruling party of Florida is built on hate, and it’s biting them in the ass.
All the campaigns will spend time in NY, California, Texas, and nearby states.
As opposed to spending all their time in cities in swing states like they currently do? The EC is an abysmal failure at preventing candidates from ignoring huge swaths of the country. Fuck the EC. What is even dumber about the EC, is that basically every other office in the US counts all votes equally, and yet this isn’t a problem at the state/local level.
One person, one vote. We are all born equal, all votes should be equal. Nobody is more deserving of a voice than any other.
Coroprations will own the midwest while farms exist, and care not about voting because their lobbying is paying the ad spend on the coasts.
That’s already the case.
Maybe running a political party off of hate wasn’t such a good idea.
It’s been successful thus far, when plenty of other systems have come and gone.

lol, lmao even
The united states is a failure.
It was designed to not allow mob rule.
And it flat our fails at that. Under the EC, we have a ‘mob rule’ by the swing states. And candidates basically only ever visit the cities of swing states, and solidly red/blue areas for fundraising on occasion.
One person, one vote. We are all born equal, so to should our votes be equal. Anything less is a failure of a system.
Not every GET request is simple enough to cache, and not everyone is running something big enough to need a sysadmin.
Near zero isn’t zero though. And not everyone is using caching.
It has nothing to do with a sysadmin. It’s impossible for a given request to require zero processing power. Therefore there will always be an upper limit to how many get requests can be handled, even if it’s a small amount of processing power per request.
For a business it’s probably not a big deal, but if it’s a self hosted site it quickly can become a problem.
The root problem is that there is a huge self capturing black market demand for drugs, which itself is a problem rooted in capitalist countries throughout the americas prioritizing GDP expansion over human wellbeing.
It’s the result of failing healthcare systems, the evaporation of 3rd places, the requirement of a car to survive, the failing housing system, the lack of job security and mobility, etc
No amount of military intervention can change that. Even if you somehow successfully destroyed every cartel with a button press, they’d all be replaced overnight because of the huge demand for drugs.
What can actually effect the demand is:
food, water, housing, education and healthcare being well funded human rights
mixed used development/relaxation of zoning laws
transportation infrastructure that allows people to actually have a choice in how they get places
unions, workplace democracy, worker protections
You get the picture. Life actually has to be worth living.
GET requests can still overload a system.
Paramount’s video player is ass. I have to fight it to start the video by reloading the page and clicking exactly in the right places. Then the player doesn’t pause when the space bar is pressed. And to top it off, the progress bar doesn’t disappear unless you click inside the window then float the mouse away. Fuck that noise. It isn’t worth it. What’s the point of paying if the service is broken?
Yar har.
They aren’t, it’s just an excuse.
No, they need to have perpetually increasing profits.
Hopefully instead of turning into a bunch of e-waste, a bunch of “useless” desktops flood refurbishers, and refurbished desktops become even cheaper. I wouldn’t mind replacing my dying media server.
