I love Benfey's table. I find it the most intuitive to interpret at a glance at what's actually going on with the electrons and the filing of the orbitals (in the version where they're marked) around the nucleus. Might be just taste, but it's my fave.

So it's not any different than Mastodon then.

I like the old logo more. It looks less commercial, more old-fashioned, and less sleek, which I think is a good thing for a museum.

I was honestly confused for a second why would you think the name had anything to do with a fetish (minus some mastodon content) until I realized you saw it as fe-diverse and not fedi-verse. I never saw it that way because I pronounce the "i" in it as "ee", not as "ay". I wonder what's more common now. Is this another gif/jif situation?

The people in charge quite possibly have crypto farms themselves, so... don't expect a solution until there are literal electricity blackouts due to shortages or the electorate gets really angry.

But if it were to be implemented, it would work. It wouldn't make the electorate happy either short-term, it would be like flushing out an infection with a fever.

Plus, with the delicate nature of the political situation, I wouldn't recommend Kosovo's institutions imposing brownouts on Northern Kosovo, or at least not just on Northern Kosovo.

Yup, I've missed it somehow. I'm also a fan of approval and particularly star voting compared to IRV. It's good they're gaining ground.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned yet a key (admittedly not only) part in making the US so polarized: first past the post voting system which inevitably leads to a two party system. Good luck having nuance in that system. It literally pits people against each other in two umbrella teams. The internet's echo chamber mechanic has only amplified this.

People need to challenge their own beliefs more often. You vote Democrat? Whatever. Who do you vote for in the primaries? Nobody cares... they should.

It might open the eyes to the foundations of disagreement not being dehumanizing.

Nobody is actually expected (emphasis on expected) to really know the third taught language beyond a couple phrases later in life. Many do, but it's not a universal fact.

It's more common for people to know two "local" languages (living near a border) and English, than the third language taught in school.

I don't know if what that person wrote is true, but drains exist and it's not like Vegas gets a lot of rain, it's literally in a desert, floods aren't really a big concern.

Isn't that what Librewolf is?
