Sorry I garbled the tenses in that skeet; vote C Alexander. Because the information varies by length and pits and stuff the translation is via Variable Frequency Modulation (a la radio) rather than DA/VC which is like “okay I read 0101111001, that’s one pixel of red.” Tremendous engineering feats.

So I had to look this up, but basically: The laser is optically reads encoded information and translating that information into an audio/visual signal. Although there are similarities to the way the info is stored, CD/DVD/etc reads binary information whereas LD reads variable information.

Posting doesn’t make a difference. Casting a vote for President in a state with a 30% partisan voting advantage for one party makes a difference.

Mark Twain hated the Fourth of July. He was often invited to speak at Independence Day festivities. His audiences assumed that his reliably unpatriotic remarks were tongue-in-cheek jests. But he meant that shit. 1/9

Every day proves Thaddeus Stevens right: there should've been big Nuremberg-style public trials of leading Confederates, accompanied by seizures of the assets of all pro-Confederate large landowners and businessmen, which should then have been distributed to freed slaves as compensation.

Oh, 1 more: Republicans have won the popular vote ONCE since 1988! And the courts are this bad! The norms got us here! The constitutional EC got us here! The left instinctively doesn’t trust any of this! We’re getting preemptively yelled at for “hate to say I told ya so” when we haven’t said it!

energy is wasted arguing with people who had nothing to do with (gestures) ALL THIS, and who overwhelmingly voted for Clinton and Biden in crucial years. If we’re serious about both defeating right wing nihilism and making a better world, that means all of us. Idk. Think before you post, I guess.
