The very first democracy, in Athena, had no elections.
A random citizen was picked up and had the duty to be the ruler for a term. After his term he would face a trial to defend his politic had been for the interest of the city. The citizens' judgement was still a kind of vote, but after the term, to decide if the previous leader deserve honor, nothing, or death.
I haven't checked them, but I think I am banned from at least some .ml things ; I am not sure if I can still see them.
If yo prefer a non-free option, made by a profit oriented company, "message ease" offer a similar system...
Also, using a qwerty keyboard doesn't force you to love neither Remington nor Mr Sholes...
I am not sure they are idiots. We do the same as them on other domain that got industrialised sooner in history. Most of us buy clothes pre-made by industries we know being evil. We know the pollution is huge, we know it involve child labour, we know the clothes are of poor quality and soon to be out of fashion anyway. But it is cheaper and more convenient than to buy our clothes hand made at some tailor.
We also do the same for fournitures, and some of us even buy industrial food.
Why would they prefer human made things just for IT domain? And if we reject machine made things in IT, why do we accept it in other domains?
Why use swype keyboards when you can use thumb-key ?
I mean, unless your hand are such that you can type using 10 fingers while holding your phone, using a typewriter machine's keyboard (so that the branches don't mix if you type too fast?) is a total non-sens!
Yes, but they require to add an adaptator to charge the device while you use the headphone. So a good old jack would make the device better.
Should I choose between two devices and the only difference would be that one has the 3.5 jack, and the other doesn't ; I would take the one with the jack...
C'est en anglais, mais ça peut t'intéresser: en Angleterre, des juifs orthodoxes s'opposent à Israel (sans self-hate).
Please teach me about the chinese welfare.
I live in France, in a working class/poor side of town. During last riots (2023), some shops got looted and burnt, some only looted (and some fully spared). They were not multinationals, just local shops. All of them got rebuilt and renewed, or reimboursed of the stolen goods. None has closed. I care about them, they are the shops where I buy things.
I may check what international news say in their analysis ; but understand that it is not that easy to believe this time will be very different from the previous one, while the previous one was already as the one before it.
And no, violence toward humans isn't the same as stealing from a shop, nor violence against goods. Should some hurt, even lightly, a shopowner, it would be a big thing in my opinion. Violences against material things aren't that important, some may not be smart nor usefull ; some can be helpful for the cause.
Also, keep in mind that since at least 15 years, in France, the gouvernment won't try to listen the people if there are no huge damages. So you may hate it, but that has became a rule. When a pacific dialog was possible, there were no riots here, just peaceful manifestations.
