Do you think an open Hario switch basically IS a v60?
It is. It's just a glass v60 with a seal at the bottom
Abolishing the monarchy would involve rewriting the constitution - if that was happening every province would want to slip in their own terms - Quebec would want specific French language rights and autonomy and if Quebec got their way Alberta would want something similar. We successfully altered the constitution back in 1982 - it took 2 years and the country almost blew up over it.
Basically it would be a total shit show. Considering the impact the monarchy has on our day to day life (basically zero) it's easier to just let sleeping dogs lie

This was literally the overarching plot for the last season of curb
There is no “list of citizens”, though. Well, there are things like social security, but they aren’t tied to where you live the way that voting has to be.
There is no need to have it tied to where you live though, which is the point. Every other democracy in the world is content to verify a) citizenship and b) proof of address independently, but it's just the states where you need to register ahead of time to a 3rd list specific for voting and remain vigilant that you haven't been purged off that list come election day
it’s just that most states don’t want to do it same-day since that bogs down the lines on election day
It literally doesn't though. 95% of the people at every poll station are known ahead of time because they still live at the same address they last procured government services from - they can move through the line at the speed it takes to verify their name and cross it off the list. Each station has a separate line for day-of voters, and it takes 2-3 minutes to get set up at most (I've done it at least a half dozen times)
My point is that “registering to vote” just means proving that you can vote, and no matter where you live, you have to do that somehow
This isn't disputed, the OPs question above is why it needs to be explicitly done as a separate step in the states. It's the only place in the world where stopping 2-3 ineligible voters from casting a ballot seemingly takes a greater priority than allowing dozens of eligible american citizens from participating in democracy
Canadian here.
if you moved across your country, how would you vote in those local elections?
I would literally just show up to the polls on election day and show a piece of ID and something (utility bill, etc) with my new address and tell them I want to vote. Or I would bring a friend and they would sign a statement affirming I'm who I say I am.
You may not see it that way, cause that "registration" may be dual purposed with some other act (like getting a new drivers license)
This is the problem, the list of citizens, and list of registered voters should not be two completely separate lists. You should be able to vote no matter what if you are a citizen
It's really not that complicated. At a high level:
- $5/mo for having the service turned on
- $5/mo for every TB storage above and beyond the first 1TB
- $1 for every TB of data transfer beyond the first 1TB in a month
And then divide those numbers because it's actually billed by the hour
Because fruit flies are literally one of the most studied animals in the world, and yes

That assumes that an adversary has control of the browser
No it doesn't, if they intercept an encrypted password over HTTPS they can resend the request from their own browser to get access to your account
The big reason you don't want to send passwords over https is that some organizations have custom certs setup
What is the problem with that? The password is secure and only shared between you and the site you are intending to communicate with. Even if you sent an encrypted password, they wrote the client side code used to generate it, so they can revert it back to its plaintext state server side anyways
It is better to just not send the password at all.
How would you verify it then?
If not sending plaintext passwords was best practice then why do no sites follow this? You are literally posting to a site (Lemmy) that sends plaintext passwords in its request bodies to log-in
Client side verification is just security by obscurity, which gains you very little.
If someone is capable of MITM attacking a user and fetching a password mid-transit to the server over HTTPS, they are surely capable of popping open devtools and reverse engineering your cryptographic code to either a) uncover the original password, or b) just using the encrypted credentials directly to authenticate with your server without ever having known the password in the first place
