I hate to say it, but FSR4 is AI powered https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/gpus/amd-plans-for-fsr4-to-be-fully-ai-based-designed-to-improve-quality-and-maximize-power-efficiency

What are these endless calls for funding? Do people only vote if they are saturated with adverts?

I will bitch about heat.,
I will bitch about cold.
I will bitch about sunshine,
and about growing old.
I will bitch about everything,
inside and out.
And if there is nothing,
Well I'll bitch about that.

Very good, I had a go at an alternate ending.

I didn't notice until you mentioned it!

So the top one in a house I don't recognise, and the bottom one on a web ... a black widow or red something ... As you maybe able to tell, I'm not really a spider fan!

All valid points, and I didn't realise the differences in outcomes based on the various counting methods!

That would be complex to explain to many people I'm sure. However, and I'm possibly biased here, there's a whole bunch of systems I don't fully understand (car engines, encryption methods, football tournament knock out rules) but I know they work and tend to accept them and at least understand their limitations and outcomes.

I can totally see how people would reject things they don't understand, and could be easily pushed in to rejecting a new system.

Also I agree that winning an election based on the change could be hard, and perhaps attempting to introduce this change later would work. Though I'm not sure the big parties (labour and conservatives in UK) really want to change a system that works for them!

I have no personal experience of explaining ranked choice.

I can imagine calculating ranked choice vote outcomes is probably pretty labour intensive (without computers).

However people generally understand the concept of how someone comes 1st, 2nd, or 3rd in a race, and I'm sure most people have thought about a ranked list of their favourite movies or football players, so it's not some completely alien concept.

Instead of just choosing who you want to win, you fill out the ballot saying who is your first choice, second choice, or third choice (or more as needed) for each position. https://time.com/5718941/ranked-choice-voting/

That seems pretty simple to me, unless I'm missing something?

And finally whole bunch of countries manage this without any issues ...

Internationally, it is used by voters in Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, Malta, Northern Ireland and Scotland. https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/politics/what-is-ranked-choice-voting-and-where-is-the-system-used/2638554/

Coming from a two party country (UK) the only real issue I see is the fragmenting of power and subsequent need to form endless alliances in parliament. (If I voted for the Greens but the Greens need the the votes of another party and end up doing deals is that really representing my vote..)

trying to combine helpfulness and knowitallness

I'm not sure where you get that idea M0DESTGOD

Is the person taking the photo thinking about trying to catch and eat me?

One fix that worked for me with Jedi:Fallen Order was to install on the internal drive and not the SD card... I'm not sure if that's always the case though

Where are the bedrooms or sleeping area?
