Nothing says "I understand maths and economics" quite like giving every number to 16 decimal places.

Tech Bros love naming their stuff after evil Tolkien shit. And they seem to do it totally unironically - as if they read the books but were confused about which side the good guys were.

We had a referendum on ranked choice voting (referred to as AV at the time) here in the UK some years ago. The campaign against it was shocking. Well funded and extremely vocal. Bizarre lies and misinformation.

Someome really hates changing FPTP.

Linux has built in drivers for most shit with no account necessary. Logitech (for example) has a third party app called Solaar that does everything Logitechs own crappy mouse/keyboard software does.

Getting away from the endless hassle of popups and drivers was my biggest motivation for switching to Linix way back in 2008.

Just for context, this is in the UK so the officer WILL be prosecuted and punished accordingly.

It is worth noting that other officers at the scene had a broken nose and other injuries before this happened. It doesn't excuse what he does but there's certainly a lot more to the story here.

Obama never had a supermajority. He got close but peaked at 59 senators in the senate and one in hospital. One shy of 60 is not enough.

A British politician once failed to show up for a panel show and they replaced him with a literal tub of lard. For the whole thirty minutes.

It seems fitting for Trump.

Kathy Bates is an excellent actor and excellent actors love to play villains.

Logitech has an idea for a “forever mouse”

Great, my money is good to go. I'll pay big for something that's easy to keep clean and doesn't have that horrible sticky rubber after a few years.

that requires a subscription

I'm out.

The Russian military has hundreds of helicopters and, so far, has lost just a hundred or so to Ukrainian action.

Odd use of "only". Based on that sentence alone, they've lost between 10% and 90%, which sounds like a lot..

I think the OP is factoring in number of users. Lies that no one sees don't matter as much.

It's a matter of perspective. Delete it from your personal universe by uninstalling the app and blocking the website.

Uber sucks balls, I don't understand the popularity. My local taxi firms had a better app before Uber even arrived in my home town and I find that they're more reliable.

"Does no one remember Magna Carta? Did she die in vain?"

But seriously, it's one of the most interesting and important documents in Western history.
