This shit is why I resist proprietary apps like this as much as I can. Removing functionality from the website and hiding it behind an app is so shitty and I’m not playing along just so they can sell off the info they get from it.

It was enhanced (brightened) by the show Last Week Tonight.

Why doubt? The party has made it part of their platform to distrust the voting process. It sounds like a threat because it is one.

it is also somewhat misleading

…what? No it isn’t. Restricting the premise from infinite to any finite amount of time completely negates it. That doesn’t prove it’s “misleading”, it proves anyone that thinks it does has no idea what they’re talking about.

What are we supposed to do[…]?

All of these articles treat energy usage like a massive crime, but miss/ignore that the world’s energy use needs to go up as we increasingly turn to electric alternatives. The problem truly lies in how we generate electricity, not how we use it.

So the actual answer to your question is intense and rapid investment in sustainable, non-carbon energy production. An infrastructure revamp to rival any other in history.

Ranch it up!

This was my first thought too, hah.

I always see those with the tools cut off. Feels bad :\

Some states have lifetime DL terms, while others are still ridiculously long.

That’s fucking dumb. I hope you’re able to rectify it. Sorry you have to deal with that shit.

Won’t matter if it pushes it past Jan 6th and the vote isn’t certified.

It’s not “admitting” anything. It’s literally just creating text based on the last few things you said.

Their profit from the device was all worked out ahead of time in the contract, and no business is going to freely lessen their return out of a contract. What the person you responded to was suggesting is making the removal of the equipment a non-issue instead of just assuming a business will throw away money.

Profit doesn’t incur ownership or liability for property that’s not theirs.

No
