No Stupid Questions•Why does postal voting favour the American Democratic Party?
6·2 months agoIf fewer people vote, it often favors the republicans. When more people vote it goes the other way. If it’s 60:40 and 100 people vote that’s 20 people. If it’s a thousand it’s 200 more people. I have a strong suspicion that the Republican party has been cheating for a long time which is why they claim the democrats have to be when they win. They always tell on themselves.

No Stupid Questions•Why does postal voting favour the American Democratic Party?
29·2 months agoBecause democrat voters out number Republican voters. If you increase the votes you increase the democrat votes by nature of increasing the number of votes collected. This isn’t factoring secondaries like demographics.

Technology@lemmy.ml•China and Russia dominate nuclear power push with 90% of new reactors
142·3 months agoYou’ve been hoodwinked by the fossil fuel industry lobby that has also misled entire movements (the greens) to be sympathetic when originally they were the reverse. They’ve lobbied for draconian regulations and making the political and economic costs be too high for self preservation. You know like every entrenched industry in America.

You Should Know•YSK the Venezuelans community in the US is not representative of Venezuelans as a whole.
2213·3 months agoYSK Maduro was fully impeached by the Venezuelan version of Congress and he used his military power to just stay in office and further silence dissent. Your post is either ill informed at best or at worst propaganda. The US does a lot of terrible things and this likely not the way or time to do this. 20-25% of Venezuelans have left and those were the ones with the will or luck to do so. Imagine how many others want to leave. Of the 75-80% of the population maybe support has grown just using math of the opposers leaving. Those people probably want to go back to their country if it were in a state to return to.
Not really man. He did it on purpose so everyone around the country would hide him and not snitch on him. That’s just like a more sustainable business model.

Technology•Dell and Lenovo may limit mid-range laptops to 8GB DDR5 RAM in response to rising memory pricesEnglish
3·4 months agoThis is not limiting mid-range laptops. This is making more low-range laptops. Just because you’re making more lower tiered laptops doesn’t mean the midrange adjusts as mid-range is based on specs/performance. This is basic taxonomy.
The average laptop produced by these 2 manufacturers will see a decrease in specs.

You are right. It’s why many cities will release neutered feral cats to handle large rat populations.

67·4 months ago140k is now the poverty line. 70k ain’t cutting it for a family of 4. Those aren’t “great” jobs
Yes. The people saying no are no longer temporarily embarrassed millionaires but temporarily embarrassed middle class. Have or have not, and 140k is have not given inflation, healthcare, education, food, rent/mortgage, energy etc.





Sure but I would say racism had a strong role here otherwise we wouldn’t have the 3/5ths compromise in regards to representative count and EC votes. The EC doesn’t even have to vote the way the state does they are free people that many swear an oath to respect the vote but we’ve seen lately what rules with no actual enforcement mechanisms leads to.
