Discord alternatives?
  • There's not a great 1:1 replacement. I'd suggest some sort of hybrid approach. Personally, I use mumble for voip and matrix for text. I haven't experienced any significant stability issues with matrix, but self-hosting probably plays in my favor there.

  • Yes, and wasted taxpayer dollars trying to get involved in the Trump documents case for some reason and trying to delay sentencing in the hush money case.

  • Andrew Bailey is the absolute worst and wasn't even elected. He was appointed by the governor after his predecessor was elected to the Senate. Somehow it looks like he is going to win in November which is so depressing.

    Missouri politicians put a trick measure on the November ballot to silence your voice
  • The only current think close to ranked choice voting in the state that I'm aware of is in St. Louis City where a few positions are elected based on a double run off where the top two candidates of the first election have a subsequent run off.

    I read an article a little bit back where the politician championing it was quoted saying "it's too confusing" and that is the primary reason it needs to be banned in the state constitution. So that's the kind of people trying to push this through.

    What I believe they really want is to clamp down on any chance of local municipalities trying to use an alternative voting system to first past the post. Those in power would be threatened by people having more choice.

  • Credit Card companies (ie MasterCard or Visa) typically have a flat per transaction fee that is very small (like fractional cent small). The processors are the ones that take the percentage cut (PoS and your bank). It's been a bit since the last time I looked into it, so things could be a bit different, but I would be surprised if it was.

  • I'd imagine you would get some pretty horrible distortion in the picture. That has to be why we haven't done it yet.
