The problem is, yes its its theoreticaly possible, but praticaly speaking it would be near impossible.

Theoretically, you need to get 51% of the population all vote for one person. However, with FPTP, you get one choice on the ballot. Is the average voter going to risk their vote on a 3rd party, or vote for who they belive to be the "lesser evil" of the two that have a shot at winning.

Even if you do manage to get 51%, there's the electoral collage. Never forget, our democracy has built-in the ability to overwrite the presidential vote.

Your first hurdle is getting any one to name an independent candidate.

Shreck is DreamWorks.

Nah, that one seems too funny to miss

Leaching on to mod powers to grab attention, for what purpose, I do not know.

Yo...that's a major spoiler you got there in a completely unrelated community.

Or help them along

Not as bad as my stop sign collection

At this rate, probably playing the last working copy of windows solitaire. It has to be run on a system cobbled together using 73 year old black market parts to hide the copy from our corporate overloards, otherwise risk the auto detect sytetem to disable the computer and send the police robots to your door.

Not too sure about the middle part, but the end was pointing out that baby pictures of little Sally playing in the tub are not okay to share or take in the first place.

Its a common enough situation where Ma is going through the baby album with your bride-to-be or a total stranger (mother-in-law) and there's a bunch of photos of under-dressed children that would definetny make the wrong crowd happy to have.

Hey, you. You’re finally awake.

Good people is the only requirement...if they are in the part of your cricle that overlaps, good for them. If not....

Most inhabitants are great, you just have get to know them a a bit...but avoid those tall hairless monkeys, those things are vicious.

The solution is Settings -> Account preferences -> Show read posts?

Thanks fujiwood@lemmy.world


I've posted a few time, but the post list always remains empty for some reason.

I can see other people posts on their profiles.

Basically looking a calandar that stays on the deaktop, and can show events (Otherwise I'd just use a wallpaper). I don't need much interaction with it, if any, essentially just open the actaul calandar program. Sync with iCal is a big plus.

While FOSS is ideal, I'm open to anything free (that can be firewalled or is actually private (unlikely, I know))

I found one that used windows 7 widgets, but it was too small and didn't seem to work right anyways.

Android Tablets (lemmy.world)

Does anyone have good experience with android tablets, and possibly replacing the OS? I see some interesting options from Google, lenovo, one plus, etc... I imagine the pixel one will be the easiest to load a new OS to, but I also wonder about the tablet support of things like lineage or graphine.

The hardware doesn't have to be groundbreaking, just good enough to be my "travel laptop" for movies, comics and general interneting. I don't want a laptop, as I often like to sit in chair/bed to read comics or watch movies and a keyboard would make that awkward.

One of my main concerns is the update support - my iPad has been getting updates since 2017, a lot of the android manufactures are promising a pathetic 3 to 5 years. I don't want to be "software bricked" in 5 years (I.e apps eventually requiring an Android version I cannot update to)
