Typefaces cannot be protected by copyright in the US, but by some stupid interpretation, fonts are software, which is protected. Really annoying how tech-illiterate judges can screw up something this obvious. Even if the technical implementation of a font was something that should be protected IP, it should be under patent law, not copyright.

That’s how you play the game. Your other choices are being a piece on the board, or violence.

Sure, just dilute your power even more.

Run on a third party ticket when you have the numbers to win an election, until then organize a group, and trade support for concessions.

The thing to fight for is ranked choice voting, or some other method without a spoiler effect. Until you have that, the only thing that matters in the ballot box is the top two candidates. Anything else is equivalent to not voting. I’m saying you should make the choices that have the best actual effect, not make a worthless protest vote to make yourself feel good.

Nobody in power gives a crap about a protest vote, If you spend that time protesting elsewhere you’ll make a bigger impact.

I had planned to vote for Claudia De La Cruz, but the Democrats sued her off of the ballot in my state.

So what? You can write in a candidate. It’s not like it would make any difference either way.

While voting, the only votes that matter are for the 2 leading parties. A third party vote is equivalent to not voting. Outside of the voting booth, there’s more you can do to push what you actually want. Doing stuff other than voting doesn’t mean you have to completely waste your vote too.

Who took away our option to vote to make things better?

The first past the post election system did.

If you want things to get better in elections, you need to get rid of primaries. Instead implement a voting scheme where you aren’t punished for ranking your desires honestly.

In the current system, the only votes that matter are the ones for the two leading candidates. Any other vote is equivalent to not voting.

I mean, I have, but I saw this long before he started trying to smelt Iron: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuCnZClWwpQ

With or without my current knowledge?

Because I’m pretty sure I could smelt Iron with what I know, and a year or two of experimentation. So the answer would be “ending the stone age”.

Without? I dunno, maybe building traps and snares.

Eh, Pluto isn’t really something proven false, just that we found more objects like Pluto that made more sense in their own category. It’s classification, like there weren’t always separate categories for feature films and short films, there wasn’t a separate category for dwarf planets when it was just Pluto.

Oxford comma is useful. I think what’s getting popular is just complete disregard for spelling and grammar.

I’m also annoyed by PWM artifacts on taillights.

Pretty easy to prove you didn’t commit a crime that hasn’t happened, no?

Fuck commission based sales.

I’ve had measuring cups where all the markings come off.

I bought a harbor freight heat gun. All I’ll use it for is lighting charcoal. Very uneven heat, and will melt itself if you don’t turn it nozzle up when you turn it off.

I think all headsets fall in this category, never had one last a year without repairs. I’ve replaced so much of my current headphones that it doesn’t even look like the same model anymore.

OOP smells like a pro-putin propaganda account. Someone else doing something bad doesn’t make your own acts of murder any more justifiable, especially when you’re murdering someone completely different than the wrongdoer.

You can scan a document to PDF, sometimes the default orientation isn’t correct.

You mean you don’t open the terminal and use mkdir?
