Some of those are absurdly strong. I have wild grapes in my yard that got ahold of an old clothesline with 6 lines across it. Now I didn't use said line so figured just let it be to feed the birds and such. Turns out it got thick enough that one winter when a particularly heavy snow came through the weight of the snow on the vine mat was enough to bend in the poles that are a good 3 inches thick.

For those willing to do a bit of CLI work there are even tools to pull your whole library automagically. Just make sure you got the space for it. Sitting at just over 1.5 TB here.

I wonder just how far down the road they think they'll get. The 'little free libraries' and ebooks, legal or less than, would be near impossible for them to push this show onto.

Information will be free, like it or not the stories will be told and you can't do a damn thing about it.

There are some use cases other than web page compatibility. One for me is in dealing with firewall and proxy policy, if the agent is a browser and comes in on specified explicit ports then force authentication, things of that nature.

Then when the 5th largest economy in the world decides they don't feel like playing with you anymore you get to find out what a budget deficit really means.

He knows just how badly she was able to pull his strings and play him like a puppet. Time and time again. The bit with poking at his rallys was priceless to see.

I'm going to try one more time here...

Nobody said 'deny' at any point in this exchange. The OP said mandatory/compulsory, aka force them to do so.

Deny and compel are NOT the same thing, they are in fact functionally the opposite each other.

What point is there to compel someone who self-selects as lacking in knowledge/interest in the process. You waste time and resources for the voter, the process administrators, enforcement personnel, everyone any anyone involved including the willing and eager participants by creating longer lines and a wasting their tax funds just to satisfy a mandate by having Cleatus write 'fuck you' on a ballot.

If that is too complicated to understand I can't help you.

One of the few places it could be posted on Lemmy without being down voted to the abyss, but only because it can't be.

No, it's not. Forcing someone who is not knowledgeable or interested to vote is in no way the same as testing whether someone is educated to determine if they should be allowed to.

You're mixing two opposite issues there, the literacy tests you mention where in an effort to exclude people from voting.

In this this topic your asking if we should FORCE the uninformed and disinterested to vote.

These are anything but the same.

Do you really want to force cousin cleatus to be involved in the leadership decisions for the country? There are entirely too many people out there with zero clue what the issues of the day even are much less to have an informed opinion on them outside what the nice person in the interwebs/TV told them is the answer.

Not to say anything against leaking it, but if it got traced back that someone internal did so then it's possible the gov takes away their deduction.

Now if someone happened to haxor in to leak it well, that's hardly the studio's problem...
