    People always want this info. Please put it in the summary.

    What's your radical opinion?
  • That too. Faithless electors are a train wreck waiting to happen. some states have laws thankfully, but not all, and that's a huge issue.

    What's your radical opinion?
  • No, that's not how our system works.

    In our system you never vote FOR anyone. You are always voting AGAINST the worst candidate. That is literally how it is set up. That is the definition of a two party system.

    Voting against a worst candidate is not propping up that system. Because one of those candidates is going to win either way due to the electoral college.

    If everyone, literally everyone, that was Democrat decided to vote Green, then they'd still lose. Again, electoral college. Nevermind the fact that getting everyone to do it is literally impossible.

    What's your radical opinion?
  • No one supports the two party system. We recognize it exists and work within it to change it. But it's designed to not change, so it's hard.

    Stomping your feet and voting third party for president is performative at best, disingenuous at worst.

    Local elections, vote third party if you want.

    Is that bullying? I lost track of the line between facts and harassment.

    My daughter decides what we watch..
  • Just remember, the show is 7 minutes long. These are highlights of the day, where they spend less than ten minutes focusing on play and pretend.

    But yeah, that dog is amazing.

    And if I have to pretend one more time that my hand is Shaun the emu, I think I may lose my mind.

    What are these wires?
  • Thank you all! With a bit of testing, I've confirmed that the gray ones are speaker wires.

    I used the non contact voltage another first. Great advice.

  • I bought a house a few months ago and I'm still trying to figure out all the wiring. I found these coming out of a cabinet in the kitchen.

    I think (?) the black one is a cut-off coax cable. There's a LOT of coax in this house, so that seems straightforward (but I would still love if someone can confirm!)

    I'm not sure about the other ones. They don't look electric, as I'd expect electric to be black + white + copper, like the rest of the house.

    There is supposedly a speaker system in the house (I see speakers) but I haven't figured it out yet. Could that be power for the speakers? I'm not familiar with speaker wire setup. If it's speakers, why would there be so many wires?

    I'm looking for an inexpensive label maker that can print small labels. I need to label various things around my house for my sanity (outlet/breaker mapping, coax endpoint mapping, etc).

    I was going to buy a NIIMBOT D110, but then I saw in their FAQ that they put an IC (chip) into their labels and the printer won't print if it can't sense it. I really don't want to support a company that DRMs their consumables, if I can help it.

    Can anyone recommend a good, small, inexpensive label maker? Preferably one that doesn't have sketchy DRM embedded.

    I was reading about how the EU is thinking of reducing the lead used in ammunition because it's polluting the environment. I wonder if regular lead exposure at the firing range is addling people's brains.

    Exercise is hitting. My brain gives up way before my body does. Even when I try and listen to music or watch shows while exercising, I just can't keep at it.

    Has anyone found an ADHD friendly way to exercise?

    I know it was a thing on reddit, but how does everyone feel about peeing on your compost? Apparently it really helps, but I've never brought myself to do it.
