FPTP guarantees that out come so get hype. We are pretty much there now. We just need a few more cycles of left splitting before people get tired of that and then our transformation will be complete.

tempestto Toronto•Toronto councillor Anthony Perruzza wants speed cameras shut off until September. "I want to get to a place where these cameras are visible"3·15 hours agoLol, aside from the obvious burden I think it would be fun to make drivers retest every 4 years or so. I bet a lot would fail. I’m sure it would have basically no impact of they failed though because they would just be allowed to take it again because this society views driving as a right.
Did you know blur is just an anagram for band?
tempestto PC Gaming•Forza Motorsport "is no more", claims former Turn 10 employee, following Microsoft cutsEnglish4·22 hours agoI have not played a Forza game since the first one. What did they do to muck it up? I assume the usual live service / micro transactions cancer.
It doesn’t need it. That hardware is just what was available.
tempestto Steam@lemmy.ml•Valve's reported profit-per-head from Steam commissions is out there, and at $3.5 million per employee it makes Apple and Facebook look like a lemonade stand6·1 day agoI laugh whenever some one thinks the government is “inefficient” and that the company will be more efficient. I’ve watched publicly traded companies waste a tonne of money on various boondoggles.
Usually the company survives despite the incompetence for other reasons.
It does not but the game industry has a lot of parallel to the movie industry l where some parts are very unionized.
Any male dominated channel that ever “gives advice” gets shunted into that pipeline by algo pretty consistently.
I like stand up comedy and it’s a full time job keeping Rogan out of my suggestions.
tempestto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•why are website language switchers in the current language?402·3 days agoIt’s more like “localization is hard and you have a week to add support for it”
How many wine making regions does the US even have? California and maybe new York is all I see on the East coast.
Most of their domestic wine production is probably consumed domestically.
This stuff is like sweet flavored vodka. You can drink it pretty quick for sure.
EB Games is Canada as well and I know exactly what you mean.
I feel like Funko pops are like an opportunistic infection. When ever you see them it’s not a good sign for the host.
The problem is it is rarely an easy proposition to just “pay more and get a better product” especially when it comes to home appliances.
In most big box stores every option will be shit. Companies know that there are consumers at every price point and so they have a product for every price print.
The problem is the expensive isn’t really better, it’s the same fridge with the same compressor as a cheap one except it has a wifi dongle or a tablet in the door.
Of course there are the Vikings and Thermidors and whatever but those are Velben goods that priced so high that you could get 5 to 10 of the cheap options for the price of one.
- they are often “cheaper” then what you would have paid in the 80s and they are built to that price
- they are more efficient, which means every thing has tighter tolerances and thus more likely to break
- they are more complicated due to the above which means more to break
- with the above efficiently they use way less water but in my experience that means they clean worse
tempesttoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Early Picture of the Florida Concentration Camp1·5 days agoThat’s a good choice, I bet it hides dirt really well.
You joke but my dehumidifier has an automatic comfort mode of some sort.
I guarantee that next run will have that button with screen print AI something something above it instead.
It’s funny you say that because one of the first comments I got from a designer when I started as a software developer was to change the colors of a graph I implemented. He referenced an ISO that I have now forgotten but the colors ended up being mustard yellow, maroon and navy blue.
tempestto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Duke University appears to have lost research grants because they used the prefix "trans" in reference to disease transmission, transgenic material, translational studies and signal transductionEnglish71·6 days agoI don’t know, sounds like someone who uses the wrong bathroom to me
tempestto World News@lemmy.world•Temperatures reach 46C in Spain as Europe heatwave continuesEnglish71·7 days agoHonestly if they spend that on weapons and then use it lower the population it could help.
Shoot maybe Thanos was right…
Not even roads, parking lots man, tons and tons of empty unused space
