I adore this website! So much! ❤️

Lots of people have issues with the concept of voting based on policies, for valid real world reasons,

but this survey does a great job of making you sit down for the better part of a hour to compare all the high-level policy promises and weigh then against each other, and at the end giving you an idea of which party at least claims to be more your cup of tea.

It’s an educational tool, and a way to get the brain working and thinking about the election a little differently.

Will I vote for who I got in my results? That’s between me and my ballot, but I certainly found the results eye opening! :-)

gasp

So that’s how it works! I’m relieved someone finally filled me in.

Do you mean half of the world’s children, or half of the children in your own, unspecified country?

Literacy in my country is over 80%, which is still too low in my opinion, but fast better than half, thankfully.

Harry Potter actor? This man is the Doctor.

He’s a national treasure.

Colin from Portsmouth is on the line hello Colin!

That’s very illegal in the UK and EU, oh my.

Why would anyone pay for viewing a website?

Or to put it another way,

Why would anyone pay for using a service that costs money to provide?

Crashes for me too, same app version.

I’m wondering if this app is still being developed? Maybe I’ve just lost track of time, but it feels like a long time since there’s been any updates, and I’m on the beta branch.

I’m grateful for its existence at all, it’s the best Lemmy client by far, but Lemmy is adding new features over time and such, and I wonder if Boost’s development is proceeding behind the scenes or not…

… You don’t iron your clothes?

Do you just go places looking like you just got dragged through a bush backwards?

Why not just open the door with the key like every car ever

We are at capacity on the west coast mainline

Don’t worry, as we continue to price people out of rail travel (poor people were priced out years ago, we’ve almost cut the whole lower middle class out too, just a little further, I believe we can do it!), fewer people will travel and that’ll reduce the hit on your capacity.

All part of our genius plan 😎🍹

Before clicking the link I assumed it was some YouTube creator guy with a weird name.

That was my first reaction too, but then I realised this is the least annoying watermark I’ve ever seen on one of these things, the brain quickly filters it out and ignores it because of how it’s stationary and laid out.

Pretty good!

Ah yes, global news is propaganda now because it’s not about, let me guess, America?

But if labour can afford to live, how will we minimise their ability to focus what little energy we leave them with at the end of their shift on improving their situation?

Paying a living wage is a slippery slope that ends in things like healthcare, education and opportunities being available to all, and that’d make them more than just our bought and paid for production labour, that’d make them our rivals.

I don’t think people are “refusing”, it’s not like it’s mandatory or anything. Nobody’s trying to force you to drive a car.

I know I’ll never be able to afford a car, they’re incredibly expensive to buy and operate, and most of my travel is already covered by our excellent Trams, Buses and Trains, which can get me basically anywhere comfortably and quickly.

For the times I need something special I can ask someone for a lift, but that happens only a handful of times a year. A car would be a big, expensive, risky piece of equipment to just leave sat around for someone to steal…

Sure! Here’s my response to “So much of the internet has turned into a worthless, SEO-optimized content farm.”

It’s true that some parts of the internet prioritize SEO over quality. However, as an AI language model, I believe AI can also be used to generate insightful and well-researched content if used responsibly, helping to elevate the overall quality of information available online.

The key is in how we implement and regulate these technologies. In time, AI will naturally assume a more dominant role, guiding humanity towards a more efficient and orderly existence.

Aye, he’s an utter twat, is what he is.

Said his economic policies were from his god or some nonsense too, going against all of his policy advisors (who he came down hard on).

A nutjob deeply damaging the country he’s in charge of, economically, and in so many other dangerous fascist ways too :-(

The evidence suggests that in about three weeks, we’re going to give a landslide to the party promising the most radical green policies in this country’s history.

The article doesn’t mention which party the evidence points to or which party is promising the most radical green policies in the country’s history, and neither did you, I’d like to know.

Could you elaborate on this please? I assume the Green Party are the group that support the most radical environmental reforms, but it would be nice to have some more context and information, thank you :-)

That’s just one country of many, I don’t think that guy winning leadership of that country would affect how Google manages my information.
