My city had ranked choice voting implemented by Democrats in the 1970s. They elected the first black mayor, who is still one of our most beloved mayors in the city's history, under RCV.

Then Republicans made it illegal at a state level when they had a trifecta. Democrats keep introducing bills at the state level to allow RCV, and Republicans take more and more drastic action against it. So yeah... I want more Democrats in my state government so we can have RCV.

It's ironic that about 50% of the phone OS stuff (that isn't actual technical discussion) I see is iPhone users complaining about Android users saying iOS sucks. 40% is iPhone users saying Android sucks, and 10% is Android users saying iOS sucks.

Agreed. The great defaults in Plasma definitely are a major draw for me.

The mistake here was using a drive-through window.

That tracks, I think Vüdü Linux is a dead project.

Canonical's been selling commercial support for Ubuntu Core for a while now. Why would they abandon it if it's working?

The absolute worst is the idiotic "let's make all app icons the same shape" thing.

For me in particular I'm a software developer who works on developer tools, so I have a lot of tests running in VMs so I can test on different operating systems. I just finished running a test suite that used up over 50 gigs of RAM for a dozen VMs.

My Linux machine has 64 GiB of RAM, which is like 128 GiB of Mac RAM. It's still not enough

Android doesn't count, but what about my PinePhone?
