Individuals probably don't care, but corporations do. So it depends.
I live in a medium size city in the US, and we have a plug-in hybrid. Even the 40 mile range limit works most of the time for us. I would think EVs in the UK would work even better (lot of areas less range needed and denser).
We all know they didn't make much effort to protect them either. They didn't make much effort to even protect their own citizens.
Plus prices are sticky, and the system has huge lags anyway. But I agree, has anything actually changed?
The US iٌs large and varies widely by region and subculture. Also life of the upper middle or lower upper class is often depicted. No one is acturally shown working mostly.
Is this approach cross platform (meaning does it have Linux support for example) or are they talking about just Windows support? Isn't the whole point of Electron that it is cross platform, not that it is fast or resource efficient?
The thing about twitter, it never was general interest. It was more about media and public personalities which media loves.
Sounds similar now but more Truth Social like. Who could have known.
I agree with that. I also have concerns about the whole electoral process. The work around for popular vote would require us to know what the popular vote is. How does a state even know that in a "certified" way, and if it it really close, there is no way to do a nation wide recount. There are a lot of practical issues with implementing nation wide popular vote. So I have reservations about this.
The other issue of course is the whole gerrymandering thing. The need to really have elections demand a 50% vote either by IRV or a separate run-off election to eliminate spoiler effects. There are tons of issues overall with our electoral system. One big issue is we have a system that empowers 2 parties and makes it difficult for those parties to have any meaningful competition at all.
I do not think it favors Republicans. It simply favors population which means cities which means more liberal.
Trump winning 2024 was just stupid people mad about inflation, COVID, race, and Biden running gain. Yes they should have been mad about the lack options in the D side. The other issues were all fake. Inflation was solved a year before the election for example.
We will see. What they can do is kind of limited with Trump and his minions still in the executive and judicial branch. Maybe we will have an attempt at oversight at least. Some of the states though have flipped enough so at the state level maybe something can be done. One nice thing is some new and younger faces.
Stayed up too late watching election returns. Nice seeing some younger people win.
