The point of RCV isn’t to ensure your chosen candidate wins; it’s to ensure that whoever does win has at least some amount of approval from the majority of voters.
It does still have flaws, but it’s still far superior to the current system the US uses.
I guarantee this sender has opinions about “The Globalists.”
No, 2/3rds.
The third-ish that voted for Trump, and the third-ish that didn’t vote for Harris.
In other words, the majority of Americans either wanted this government, or didn’t care if this was the government.
An attack on the brand is an attack on them.
Thus it ever is with Conservatives. They make $whatever their whole identity, and so take any critique of $whatever as a personal attack against themselves.
I blame evangelical religions’ need for martyrdom for this.
“Shady Pines Resident”
Hey, I heard Shady Pines burned down in a mysterious fire…
Not sure why “Truth” Social needs to run outside of America anyway, it’s just a
AmericanRussian misinformation platform aimed at Americans.
I seem to recall the thin-skinned narcissist changed Twitter’s tabulation for views to include people just scrolling past it instead of actual clicks.
Okay, so think about it like this:
Suppose your job is making wooden chairs. It’s takes you the exact same skills to make a wooden chair to sell for profit, as it does to make a wooden chair to donate to a chairless children’s charity, right? So why would you spend all your time and skills doing a job that’s eventually going to bankrupt you? While you might do a few chairs because you feel like it’s morally right, the bulk of your work is going to be selling chairs because that’s how you sustain yourself.
CEOs are in the same situation. A 500-person for-profit company takes the exact same skill set to run as a 500-person non-profit. So the reality is that non-profits need to either be competitive in pay with for-profits, or they have to be attractive in ways other than compensation so they can entice CEOs to work for them.
Now, none of that is to say that the scale of CEO compensation is appropriate, because it’s not. But that’s the calculus a non-profit has to make.
Whether it does or not is irrelevant; what matters is the perception among executives that it does.
It was ~67% of eligible voters that were registered to vote. Over 94% of registered voters actually voted.
A certain political party benefits from low voter turnout. Which, coincidentally, also happens to be the party working to get Trump elected and shield him from the repercussions of his crimes.
AccuWeather’s business model relies on “adding value” to government-provided data, and monetizing it. Maintaining a fleet of satellites isn’t cheap.
…huh. TIL.
The last time I had to download the unifying software it was more obvious than that.
And to add insult to injury…
Now you’ve gotten your inventory counts off. There’s also a (marginal) cost difference between the two size cartons. Of course, this needs to be balanced against customer satisfaction- there will be a non-zero number of customers who won’t want the upsell or to buy an alternative item, and so the question is how much business would you lose vs how much money you’d make offset with the extra time and corporate headache of reconciling inventory?
Not that Sonic shouldn’t do this, just throwing out some real-world considerations.
You mean a buttbuttin?
Edit: Boost for Android won’t let me post it either.
Makes more sense than the time Indiana tried to define pi as 3.2. The only reason it didn’t was because a professor from Purdue was in Indianapolis on unrelated business and convinced Indiana’s senate to table the bill.
Of course, we know today that such a thing couldn’t happen since Indiana’s legislature would laugh at the woke lib and pass it just to trigger him.
No no no, it was the color they had a problem with, it just wasn’t the suit.
You know how when a right wing terrorist gets arrested, the entire right wing media claims he’s not right wing but a secret leftist trying to make the right look bad, and he keeps insisting that he is right wing?
Sounds kinda like that.
Thing is, this isn’t a “gotcha” to them. Their default assumption is “American = more qualified than anyone else” because they’re goddamn ignorant racists.
No one who is not American will ever be qualified in their eyes.
