With votes that close there's plenty of luck involved in other ways. The weather, tv schedule etcetera.

It's definitely a problem, but it's not preclusive.

The alternative is equally terrifying - just a third of voters being the majority in the brexit referendum is unconsciable.

Of course I'm interested in Australian politics.

You might do well to take an interest in the politics of US allies yourself.

Just let them donkey vote. Who cares.

The point is almost everyone participates.

I don't have any interest in insulting you... and pretty much just too lazy to read your comment history.

I can't speak for other Australians, bit I'm fascinated by US politics. It's an absolute shit show and it serves as a cautionary tale for the rest of the world I think.

As to why we're passionate about supporting biden... this is just supposition but:

Firstly voting in Australia is compulsory, so the idea of voting even if you're not really enamoured with the options is more palatable. That said, we do have preferential voting so it's not really the same.

Secondly the US is a close ally. US international policies are in many ways our own defacto policies. In some ways we would be burdened by a trump presidency.

Thirdly, and this is probably more "me" than Australians in general but I strongly believe that most conservative voters here are voting against their own interests for the wrong reasons, yet we seem to be leaning further and further to the right like everywhere else. I see criticism of Biden more or less the same way. They may be valid concerns but you still need the guy to win.

Perhaps I'm mis-remembering account names, but it seems like every comment from you is trying to undermine progressive votes.

Perhaps. I'm not expert but I'm just not convinced you'd get good compliance across instances.

After all, even minimal non- compliance makes the whole thing pointless

It would be great if everything could be classified in this way, but is it practically possible to apply a more complex system like this across instances, given that we struggle with the simpler NSFW tag?

If you can't export / save / transfer codes then you need to regenerate all your 2fa codes every time you switch to a new device.

2FA doesn't need to be infallible, it just needs to be a second factor.

Idiots. I'm certain that absolutely no one wants this. What a shit show.

Of course there is, it's just not as far left as you would like.

That's a false dichotomy.

I've never licked a frog so I don't know.
