@phdepressed also remember hilary won in '16. The only time Republican nominee won since '89 was W in '04.
@MajorHavoc
I don't understand how we came to decide splitting representation up by geographic region was the only way to do it. There are so many other ways, religion, industry, age, sex, gender, ideology etc.
I particularly think it makes no sense to have a bicameral legislature with the only difference between them is the size of the geographic region like we have in Madison.

@science Making more magnetism possible with topology
https://news.mit.edu/2023/making-more-magnetism-possible-topology-1010
\> MIT researchers found evidence that topology can stabilize magnetic ordering, even well above the point at which magnetism normally breaks down. Their work reveals how topological structures known as Weyl nodes found in an exotic semi-metal can significantly increase the working temperature for magnetic devices.
@Shizu word brother, word.
@ChocoboRocket there's certainly advantages to free and federated ferated networks. its literally impossible for such actors to ruin the 'verse. There only choice is attempt to make it irrelevant, like Google did with XMPP. I guesd that's one reason went so many fedizens are weary of Facebook's THREADS coming here.
@EmpathicVagrant @gkd remember when the iPhone first came out, and the BlackBerry fan boys where complaining there were no third-party apps, and Apple said that if you have a good web browser you don't need additional apps? Petridge farm remembers.
@SDF theres.life is a Christian instance. We try to be welcoming of all, but we do have some rules, like #NoSwearing especially use of the Lord's name in vain. As it says on my profile I am "A grateful believer in Jesus Christ in recovery from lust, still trying to figure out where I best fit in the fediverse." I'm looking to find replacements for subs /r/radicalChristianity /r/cricket /r/mls /r/squaredcircle & /r/catholicism.
@sibachian and that's better. You can easily tell, 100 is too hot to play outside, and 0 is too cold to play outside and everything else is fine.
@SturgiesYrFase so Brits call a Southern American biscuit & a French scone both a scone? Is there anything they call cookies?
@crmsnbleyd @RagingNerdoholic but the real question is, then what do you call scones? Do you call those cookies and make the whole thing a circle?
@crmsnbleyd @RagingNerdoholic well southern biscuits certainly aren't a pastry of anykind. They aren't sweet at all and are an important part of any southern breakfast.
