We have a lot of smart plugs that we use for plant timers. They are way more accurate than the old school notched wheel ones and we can set them to actual sunrise and sunset. They also can just be turned on and used like a switch if the internet goes out
Dishwashers use a combination of enzymes (in the detergent) that breakdown food, heat, and abrasion to clean dishes. Don't put anything nonstick in one unless you like Teflon poisoning or your nonstick items to be stick items. Steel is fine, and aluminum will oxidize and look bad, but will still work. I assume the basket isn't plastic, so no worries there, but don't put melamine in the dishwasher either.
Oh, mind you I agree, no gods no kings. I just meant I'll have to look into the Canadian system to see how much power they have. Like personal research, not "Hmm, wonder if it is good." Sorry if that wasn't clear, that was before coffee
Thanks for the info. I had read the Nicky Case summary previously but not the Jason Quinn one. I'll check it out after work today, but from how I read it Nicky's conclusion is we need to try thing is real world scenarios. Honestly I am down for any alternatives, and agree that approval would be better than RCV. I think there is a situation where you can pass some kind of election reform like RCV, see if it works, then either vote for a new method or keep it based on the real world info. Well, I see that situation as previously possible. I'm really not sure what the next 4 years will bring, but I do know what they've said they want to do, so...
Huh, I always thought the monarchy was a figurehead role in Canada's government. Seems to me that should be an elected position, not one granted by birth, but that is just my first gut response. I'll for sure have to look more into it, thanks for the answer.
I haven't looked too deep into all the options, but from my view they all have advantages and disadvantages. At the very least RCV is better than what most places in the US. Riding the wave of popularity might be the only way to get things changed too.
I am honestly kind of flabbergasted by that declaration. If you don't mind me asking (seriously tell me no if you don't want to open the discussion), in what way? Like do you believe that monarchy is the best form of government or believe in hereditary rule? Sorry if that is a really basic question, but I have never encountered someone declaring themselves a monarchist.
Ah cool, a TERF making a weird christian moralist claim. Wish I could physically put this article in the trash.
