It’s honestly a shame. Indianapolis is a really fun smaller city that’s well laid out for visitors. It’s just swimming in a sea of suck.

God, Indiana sucks so much.
Fair enough. Time will bear out the truth.
Economy of scale is different from groundbreaking novel developments in the field.
China is also the runaway leader in false discoveries and purposeful fraud in academia.
Well, it’s a Chinese lab claiming to have it. So, I guess I’ll just wait for the proof.
-100 for aiming at the tiniest target anyone could think of.
Every step counts.
You couldn’t be more wrong. Plastic shampoo, soap, and conditioner bottles represent 30% of hotels’ plastic waste. Marriott’s US properties alone eliminated 1.7 million tons of plastic waste by moving away from mini plastic bottles, across only 1,000 properties. [Source]
How exactly does it reduce plastic waste?
By eliminating a major source of plastic waste in the hospitality industry.
Sounds like a great idea. We should ship it in its original container.
Welp that’s it folks. He can’t win and if he steps down all of the free world’s hopes are on the shoulders of a “tough on crime” one-term senator who couldn’t even make it to Iowa when she ran for the nomination.
Sole military superpower, largest economic power, global cultural hegemony . . . yeah, I have no idea
So this is basically just a recurring donation like a lot of us do for other projects? That’s fine. If it’s testing the waters for a product-line bifurcation, a la pfSense, that’s not fine at all.
That’s not what the article says. Bernie got his ass kicked. It was time to move on right years ago.
Same, I actually prefer a party-leadership and elected officials decide process to the primary system we have now. FiveThirtyEight did a series of podcasts about the history of the US primary system and it really brought me around to disliking the way we do it. There’s a reason that almost no other country votes on candidates for party nominations the way we do. Here’s the link: https://fivethirtyeight.com/tag/the-primaries-project/ I recommend listening to all four episodes, but the third in particular was excellent.
There hasn’t been a brokered convention in the modern era of the primary system (post-1968). It would 100% be a circus. Good for TV, probably exciting, almost certainly bad for the party and its candidate. My guess would be that everything would be handled by the prospective nominees before the convention itself to avoid looking like a hot mess in front of the nation.
The West Wing had a brokered convention that went like seven ballots. Was a good episode IIRC.
There are no constitutional implications to a party’s nomination process so long as it doesn’t violate the law with regard to discrimination and the like. If Biden withdrew you get a brokered convention. If he withdrew after being nominated, the party’s rules would place his VP nominee at the top of the ticket (although ballots would likely still have his name due to state laws and logistics).
They changed the superdelegate rules years ago. They don’t get to vote on the first ballot.
Parties are beholden to their internal rules, candidates can sue to enforce them as needed.
And the hits just keep on coming.
They’re BIOS locked and only accept Windows keys. On the plus side. Tuxedo is developing Linux notebooks with the same powerful, low-power ARM chips.
