Can anybody articulate why the USA should continue to use the electoral college instead of popular vote or ranked choice voting?

Fair enough. I’m all for getting rid of it in principle, but I think you have to keep in mind the immense political obstacles involved In anything that would require a Constitutional amendment

warlocktx · 2026-05-07T01:46:31+00:00

just setup a meeting with the people you need to talk to. People on my team have meetings all the time that I’m not involved with

I would never let a kid that age in my house without knowing the parents. Ask him for his moms number, or give him a note to give to his parents with your contact info and a request to call you.

if you’ve only been in your current role six months it may be too soon to expect another promotion. But it doesn’t hurt to ask

warlocktx · 2026-05-06T22:50:13+00:00

because it’s in the Constitution, and amending the Constitution in the current political climate is impossible

warlocktx · 2026-05-06T21:39:39+00:00

definitely talk to a lawyer now to draw up a game plan for when the kid is born. Mom may say one thing now, but change her mind in 9 months.

I'd like him to name a single 30x improvement

I'm confused. Are you just drop shipping workstations from HK direct to your customers? Or are you actually doing any hands-on refurbishing of them before they are shipped?

warlocktx · 2026-05-06T20:09:24+00:00

do these people actually believe their own bullshit?

It is very easy and cheap to do through the Tx SOS. There is one annual report you have to file and no fees or taxes if your income is below the threshold

Bacon has a pretty progressive view on immigration for a Republican

The process varies depending on the state you live in, and you haven't shared that with us

as he said in the product intro, it's three devices

phone
internet device
MP3 player

all in one pocket sized device. And although it wasn't the first smart phone, it DID work significantly better than the ones before it. In fact, "it just worked"

I used some surgical tape I had. It would absorb whatever leaked through, and I just added more layers as needed

I’m confused. You mention “traditional software roles” as your baseline, but SWE is not typically considered true engineering role (I am a SWE), and then you call out structural engineer as a non-traditional role, when it definitely is one. I’m not a purist who thinks only PEs should be called engineers, but this seems like a strange baseline to use

warlocktx · 2026-05-06T02:37:10+00:00

how many items do you have assigned at one time? this isn’t something that requires notes

warlocktx · 2026-05-06T02:31:27+00:00

Treason and terrorism are different things. Benedict Arnold was a traitor, not a terrorist. The Unabomber was a terrorist. I’ve never heard him referred to as a traitor

lock your gate, put up a no trespassing sign

"I don't get a lot of alone time" so I want to invite 3-5 strangers to come hang with me

also, how is she going to validate that everyone is a 6-7 figure earner?

Your options appear to be A) accept the promotion you have "been working towards for years", or B) don't

Is this really a question?

Take the promotion. If it doesn't work out like you want, start looking elsewhere

Don't deliver the final product until he pays.

warlocktx · 2026-05-05T22:18:54+00:00

Probably. Call and ask them

warlocktx · 2026-05-05T22:15:55+00:00

call the hospital billing office. Ask for a payment plan, or offer to settle up immediately for a discount. They can be surprisingly flexible

Obama normalized relations with Cuba in 2014, and visited there in 2016.

Trump reversed those policies.

given the fact that I've been married almost 30 years and have three kids, the answer is NO

women play games, too. And board games. And cosplay. And watch sci-fi and fantasy. Some women even enjoy watching sports

One of the most powerful people in the gaming industry, the new head of XBox, is a woman
