yeah, because if you don’t like one position Biden holds, you should throw away your vote or vote for Trump… Even though Trump holds a much more extreme position regarding that one thing.

Useless? That’s a necessity for using your router console port!

“Reich” doesn’t mean “Nazi”.

The “Second Reich” referred to the German Empire. After WWI, “The Weimar Republic,[b] officially known as the German Reich,[c] was a historical period of Germany from 9 November 1918 to 23 March 1933, during which it was a constitutional federal republic for the first time in history; hence it is also referred to, and unofficially proclaimed itself, as the German Republic.”

and you seem like you’re at about a 14 to 16-year-old level of maturity regarding politics; railing-against-the-world, “my eyes are open, don’t you see what I see??”, polarized opinion and discourse untempered by personal experience of compromise or impossible situations, lack of empathy, and insistence on unrealistic all-or-nothing outcomes delivered immediately versus consistent, incremental improvement that takes hard work and nuanced understanding.

Is there another explanation for Biden’s typical-for-a-professional-80yo net worth that may be more likely than webs of deceit, bribes, international money laundering, and influence peddling?

Like, what if he just wasn’t that corrupt? And he has mostly worked as a public servant with a working-class background?

You know that political donations are not received by the candidate, right?

Many still have notable gaps in voter verification - for example, the ballots are tallied by reading a printed QR code, which the voter has no means to verify. So close to voter-verifiable, yet not voter-verifiable.

In addition, polling places are often bottlenecked by the limited number of expensive machines, which local precincts have no power to remedy - especially in dense urban areas.

I have to wonder why bubble (scantron) forms, which are simple, cheap, low-infrastructure, and present vastly less software surface area (they can be counted by an array of photosensors and discrete flip-flop registers) were not the preferred choice. And, it’s always possible to have a touchscreen machine which prints a filled bubble form - which the voter can actually verify.

The S&P 500 has increased 2100% since 1993.

What do you think? Do you have an investment account?

A battery (or transformer secondary) has two terminals - neither is “ground”, and electricity will flow between them if a circuit is formed.

Often, one terminal of a battery or transformer is connected to a ground stake, so it’s possible for ground to become part of the circuit. But ground is not any kind of natural destination for electricity. (Other than lightning, which is a result of a charge forming between the earth and the clouds)

it doesn’t “find” the path of least resistance. It takes (flows along) all possible paths simultaneously. If you connect two wires in parallel between the terminals of a battery, one of which is thick (resistance) and one of which is thin (high resistance), current will flow along both.

What? No. Electricity takes all conductive paths through a circuit simultaneously, with a current in inverse proportion to the path resistance. Ground means nothing unless it somehow makes up a part of the circuit - it is neither a “sink” nor “zero” for electricity. It’s just dirt.

Anyone with a retirement plan benefits from it, which, according to census.gov, is at least half of the population over age 24. You should open one - it’s easy!

Apathy/“checking out” is an intended consequence of amped-up propaganda. In Russia, it’s deployed so the “ruling elite” have even less oversight.

To make things better, you have to help steer - saying you’re not going to participate unless everything is perfect nullifies your impact.

And, to be sure, “burning it down” will almost certainly not result in things aligning to your moral stance - opportunistic, evil actors thrive in chaos.

yeah they are selling “wireless home internet” hard now, can’t have people using their phone hotspot for that.
