You may have heard that the “Donut shaped universe” theory has been picking up some steam, well one particular version of the theory speculates that the universe exists cyclically, basically that the universe expands to heat death, eventually begins to contract again, and a new big bang occurs once it compressed all the way back down to singularity size.

Basically, it was never created, it always has and will be, we just exist in the pocket of time in which it’s fresh off of the latest explosive rebound, relative to the scale of time in which the full cycle plays out that is.

What’d be more productive would be enforcing a reformed model.

• Algorithm promoted content is considered published.
• You can’t promote content from unverified accounts.
• Unverified users can still post to friends and family.
• Maximum of 250 followers unless you verify.
• Friends and family can be grouped up so you can precisely control who sees what.
• You can only repost an original post, so if your friend wrote it or made it, you’re good, but if they shared it from someone else, then you’re gonna have to rewrite it or rememe it to post it yourself.

I actually don’t think a fully artificial human like mind will ever be built outside of novelty purely because we ventured down the path of binary computing.

Great for mass calculation but horrible for the kinds of complex pattern recognitions that the human mind excels at.

The singularity point isn’t going to be the matrix or skynet or AM, it’s going to be the first quantum device successfully implanted and integrated into a human mind as a high speed calculation sidegrade “Third Hemisphere.”

Someone capable of seamlessly balancing between human pattern recognition abilities and emotional intelligence while also capable of performing near instant multiplication of matrices of 100 entries of length in 15 dimensions.

Shoulda spray painted “weirdo” on it just to provoke them into super Saiyan truck mode

As in our profits and minimized losses.

Hey don’t blame us, blame the nepos who got on the board without even needing to study for it!

My MBA track actively rewards me for thinking like a socialist XD.

I am baffled beyond baffling by how everyone swerved on this one

BECAUSE I AM VERY OBVIOUSLY NOT TALKING ABOUT A FPTP SYSTEM YOU ILLITERATE COW!

READ THE DAMN CHAIN! I EXPLICITLY CALLED OUT STAR VOTING IN THE FUCKING CHAIN!

USE YOUR CONTEXT CLUES GODDAMN YOU!

We do need a rewrite at this point.

The US as a structure has overgrown the limitations the constitution has as a governing system.

Not even in the sense that the US is approaching being a fully representative democracy while the constitution was designed as an oligarchic republic of household owning family heads.

Just the sense that the system of governance itself is not one that can handle 50 states with territories and DCs in change.

There needs to be a dramatic expansion just in the electoral infrastructure and system of this country for the house and Senate to even stand a chance of performing the roles they’re supposedly intended to, and that’s before we get into how they themselves need to be radically redesigned.

The office of the presidency itself needs to be eliminated and folded into the powers of the House and Senate, the supreme court needs to be replaced with a sortitioned case by case bench selection to end the efficacy of jurisdiction shopping, and the process to pass amendments needs to be SIGNIFICANTLY altered to smooth the process and provide checks and balances between the people, the states, and the feds.

Ok now I know you’re intentionally being obtuse.

Read the fucking chain Sea Lion and quit arguing with a position you invented out of thin air.

…then they both get on the ballot?

I feel like at this point you’re going out of your way to be obtuse about not understanding what is being explained.

Party infrastructure is involved at exactly no point in this process.

Multiple people from the same party would be able to share the ballot.

This is because the voting system is such that there would be no spoiler effect from two or more candidates from the same party running.

In fact, an ideal would be for parties to encourage multiple candidates to run, since there would be few offices in contest for which there would only be a single open seat.

A petition submitted to the relevant municipal electoral committee?

…did you just entirely forget that you get on the ballot via petitions completely outside the primary process?

Nah, “The Party” never picks candidates, it’s just that spoiler effects are removed via reforms like STAR voting

I’d rather an electoral system where primaries aren’t necessary to avoid in party spoiler effects

Seeing Lara Logan in these sitches always kinda makes me sad, because it always comes off to me like traumatic response after what happened to her in Egypt.

Man literally is a suspected child rapist, yet the supposed anti-groomers would personally offer him their infant children to rape before they ever even dreamed of applying any standards to him.

It’s the logical conclusion of their association based morality. Don could actually murder someone on 5th avenue and the right would never give an inch on it because he’s their bastard and they’ll take their bastards over an outsider’s angels every day of the week.

They don’t believe it’s evil for satanists to run a soup kitchen because they suspect an ulterior motive, they believe it’s evil because the satanists are evil so everything they do is evil because nothing an evil person does is ever a good thing. Same time, one of their own could be caught hacking school children to death with a machete and they’ll go to the extent of bashing their head into a wall until they forget their own now murdered children because he’s one of their own and “we don’t need outsiders to tell us how to handle our issues.”

How in sam hill are their vowel Vs and consonant Us in this‽

IIRC their word was something like “Kolba”

I mean now that I’m thinking of it, that’d be absolutely right, only way to make it more Hawaiian would be to find a way to get some tarro on it too.

My guess is the only reason ham was used is because it was made up before spam caught on.

Also the guy who did it was Canadian, so non zero chance he was just pulling the recipe out of his own ass.

Probably Hawaiian/Filipino diaspora. Those guys love spam, to the extent of innovating fusion dishes centered around it.
