There were shadowy conspiracists lurking in the dark alleys of Washington, and hiding from the glaring sun in the High Desert of California, but they were laughably easy prey when the Martian lizard people, the subterranean Vril-empowered mole-men, and the globalist pedophile Commies did show up.
If there is no winner in the second round, the candidate with the most votes wins.
If that is the absolute majority, all is fine.
If there is no absolute majority, the President has the option to appoint the candidate who got the most votes or dissolve the parlament and call for new elections.
The AfD could obliterate trust in him by voting for him, though.
No one would believe he didn’t make a deal with them, since he has leaned on them for a vote against the former government twice already, causing a huge scandal.
Worst possible outcome would be if in the 2nd vote he gets a majority that shows all of the far right AfD voted for him, too.
Especially since he already did a back room deal to get their support in a vote before.
No one would believe him when he says he didn’t make a deal with them.
Damn, we have a celebrity here!
It’s a bike with only one gear with a freewheel. Lets you coast without pedaling.
They’re more popular than fixed gear where I live, cause you can ride them like a normal bicycle.
The reason is less maintenance and fewer things to break. I guess they work well for utility cycling in flat areas, but some people are crazy enough to compete in Mountainbike races with them.
Can I combine this with my water-cooling setup?
One can also have endless arguments about the color turquoise. Is it rather green, or rather blue?
The answer to that question is “no”.
It’s turquoise. You wouldn’t argue about whether orange is yellow or red, either.
Look, just don’t, OK?
Damn, that’s an impressive number of down-votes!
Fixed Gear advantages:
Drawback:
Geared Bike advantage:
Drawbacks:
Single-Speed bikes can do none of the things fixed gear bikes can do, and also can’t switch gears.
The “cost” of maintaining trees is paid by the city to people living, buying things and paying taxes in the city.
People who don’t have a college education and get to make a living working outside, improving their neighborhood.
The fake trees are likely put up and maintained by a tech corporation from out of state.
I love this about lemmy.
Like someone stumbling into the wrong house and still being welcomed.
It’s a lot more informal and relaxed than on the piss page of the Internet.
Single-speed bicycles suck.
They combine the drawbacks of a geared bike with the drawbacks of a fixed gear bike.
Just tried setting no country, then ducked “wine”.
Results were definitely still from my country first.
When I set display language to US English, results came up from the US, instead.
When I set it to French, it shows French websites at the top.
So the language you set affects what websites you are shown in the results. That sucks.
But you can actually just turn off ads in the settings. That’s pretty fucking neat!
What’s a url?
actually, yes. It’s what gets recommended to redditfugees to avoid dumping them all in .world
Is there a source that isn’t “US analysts”?
That’s about as reliable as “Russian analysts” or “Chinese analysts” right now.
You shouldn’t smoke inside a Russian car, they’re known for leaky fuel lines.
When Israel has “cleared”, flattened and militarized the entire West Bank and Gaza, they will realize that Palestine will still not be gone, and neither will the Palestinian people. A lesson they could have learnt a lot easier and quicker by looking at their own history.
In Catholic Church politics, he was the middle-of-the-road candidate.
On the one side, he protected priests who sexually abused children.
But on the other side, he was never caught diddling kids himself.
A true moderate.
