He donated on biden's inauguration day, a day when those funds are useless to increase turnout. Also he is in PA, a state with closed primaries. The only way to vote against trump, or trumplike politicians in the primary is to be a republican, at least on paper.

We don't currently have enough information to make a conclusive statement about his political leanings.

Local means Simi Valley, the californian city of 125,000, around 40 miles northwest of LA.

Local news often has confusing headlines when posted to international sites like lemmy. Any chance of adding the location to headlines when posting here or is that against the rules?

You can count numbers but they use < in maths. QED.

Tod let obsidian once. But also tod is now owned by phil so it might not even be his call.

Democrats have had many opportunities to push for ranked choice voting but chose not to. How is ftpt the fault of the parties that have never had the power to do anything about it?

... Is far easier to convince someone who hasn't already made up their mind. Spend your time productively.

I do not make threats. I have never made any threats. Your argument reads far more as encouragement to vote for an R instead of a D. That is an unwise argument to make if you care about maximizing the number of D votes.

But I'm voting G regardless. Goodbye!

People are far more likely to call out or blame third party voters than nonvoters, despite nonvoters having an order of magnitude larger effect on the outcome. I wasn't meaning to call you out specifically.

However, I think you should probably stop encouraging third party and nonvoters to vote for republicans. That doesn't seem to be in your best interest.

Computer code is very complicated, so when humans write code we write in a way we can understand. We name functions and variables with names that make sense, and we put comments in the code so we can understand how it works.

Compliers don't care about any of those things. Variable names are turned into numbers, and comments are ignored.

You can convert machine code back to source code, it will be missing all those human readable labels and explanations. You can recreate them, but its a major process. Reverse engineering is done sometimes, but there's a reason is not common.

There's also the issue of licensing. An important part of free and/or open source software is that you have permission to modify the source code. You probably don't have a license to use the code if its closed source. There are ways to do this legally but it adds extra hurdles and inconvenience to an already major process.

Is there a party without rich fucks? I would prefer that but I'm yet to find one.
