RCV doesn’t “solve” the issue though. The fact that third party candidates can sway elections to the least preferred candidate is known as the “Spoiler effect”, and RCV is also subject to it.

RCV seems to be objectively better than plurality (what we use now), but it and any other ranking-based voting system are still subject to spoilers. One thing that can actually “solve” the issue though is rating-based systems, like Approval Voting, Score Voting, or STAR voting.

Good video on the subject

Meyotch is an interesting suffix to a person’s name.

“I am Professor Patrick”

“Professor?”

“Meyotch Professor Patrick!”

I’m not yet convinced this technology is the future or anything, but it does look pretty promising. We’ll know better when DOME testing begins in 2026.

I second the request for a citation.

Feel free to refute this, but here’s an article I found that suggests there’s little evidence that Head and Shoulders is bad for your hair - at least the ones that aren’t Clinical Strength.

Minor anecdote: I used to have severe dandruff, then I started using Aveeno’s Apple Cider Vinegar products and that helped a LOT, but now I use the ACV H&S and I haven’t had any real complaints since the switch.

Dude, I suggested the earth was shaped like a velociraptor.

No, I didn’t miss the joke

Edit: Did YOU miss MY incredibly obvious joke? xD

Oh fucking christ, a flat-earther. You people are even worse than the fucking round-earther scum on this platform.

I swear you people will never accept a velociraptor-shaped earth, prolly cuz your brains just aren’t big enough to process the geometry.

Edit: I really hoped the /s would not be necessary…

If there’re no other alternatives, then I propose that going forward the new term for this should be “Crowd Striking”

Considering that this is an xkcd comic, I think it’s fair to suggest that most people who see this and know where it’s from will recognize that it’s mostly a joke.

The spirit of the comic is still pretty nice, though. I think that’s what really matters.

What about a price hike? If Netflix or Spotify increased their prices, would that be news?

Setting aside whether or not you were banned from reddit for legitimate reasons:

I think this thread, funnily enough, demonstrates that feedback from a community of actual people who might care about a subject is AT LEAST as good as ChatGPT.

Across 2 separate comments you were given both a succinct explanation for why the problem exists, and an acceptable solution for you. And it took way fewer words than all of what you show of the ChatGPT output, which AFAICT gave you neither, at least not in all the text of your screenshot.

Maybe not Splatoon specifically, but switch-exclusive single-player games run comparably or better on switch emulators running on the deck

Don’t take this person’s criticisms too hard. They posted a lot of strongly opinionated comments on this thread.

For whatever reason they’re being antagonistic mostly to people on this thread like you who clearly do care, at least enough to not do literally nothing. Not sure if that’s some sort of strategy, or bad social skills , or potentially just trolling.

I think what you’re doing is fine - it’s something I’ve done a couple times.

Fair enough. I didn’t watch 33 and 34 but I’ve watched some of S35. It hasn’t been great by any means but I loved E2.

I felt like that kinda fit the vibe of this video though - that new simpsons isn’t consistently good, but there are some gems in there so long as I’m okay with it not being like old simpsons.

I’m a fan of this guy’s work, but honestly when I saw that headline I figured he probably wasn’t gonna convince me.

Fast-forward an hour later and I gotta say…I think the Simpsons might be good again.

I think it just comes down to whether you appreciate more sunlight before school/work, or after.

I don’t really care how much sun there is before 8:30-ish. In fact, I hate when I try to get 1 more hour of sleep and I can’t b/c early dawn’s leaking in, so I actually prefer a later sunrise.

But when I leave work, I freaking LOVE bathing in sunlight for as long as I can, thinking “my biggest responsibilities of the day are done, and the day’s not even over yet”.

Where I’m from, standard time in winter means 6ish is pitch black - I prefer to at least have late dusk by that time.
