Parliamentary elections turnout will easily exceed 50% so it'll be a huge cluster fuck to boycott referendum because people will likely be handed both ballots by default. It's illegal to take ballot away or destroy it. Invalid votes are counted toward quorum. So far it looks like we'll have to specifically refuse and have this on the record.
Right now all of the proposed questions are so bonkers that many people will get parliamentary elections ballot and ignore referendum. EU accession referendum is the only referendum ever that met quorum in Poland so putting that question on a ballot could potentially mobilize people.
PiS won't do it because their long term plan is to sow enough distrust to EU that they would have to "begrudgingly" leave the EU in a couple of years. They don't need a referendum for that either - previous government (led by PO) passed a law so that only a parliamentary majority is required for that IIRC.
Also worth pointing out: referendum campaign has less strict spending limits compared to parliamentary elections so this is one more way (on top of utilizing state media and state owned enterprises) that PiS can outspend competition in upcoming elections which are held on the same day.
People half-joke that coming to Fediverse is easy, all you need to do is select a provider like you do with e-mail.
In case of Lemmy this omits the part where you have to block dozens of communities because they shill for genocidal regimes and you can't block them and their users wholesale using instances. You also have to be on a lookout for trolls that coordinate on those instances and use alts from other instances. If you aren't careful enough your experience might be akin to a conspiracy Facebook group but obviously it's users fault.
Mastodon doesn't have this issue despite using same Activity Pub framework.
Kbin doesn't have it.
It's Lemmy developers and instances that somehow ended up with staggering amount of tankie trolls, to the extent that exceeds even alt-right trolls on Reddit.
Telling people to start their own instances is acknowledging that the issue is so widespread that there are no instances with sane policies.
It's the dishonesty that makes me despise those guys the most. How could you dislike them when they're so civil in their shilling for genocidal regimes, eh?
Modern day tankies are indistinguishable from fascists since they shill for fascist shitholes like Russia and China. I don't care about intent, everyone can lie about it. You can't lie about outcomes.
If you're at the extreme bottom there's little chance to move upwards in capitalism but it's comforting to have some undesirables who have it even worse than you.
Religion is not the goal of conservatives, it's a tool to preserve hierarchy in the society. Capitalism is another tool that achieves that.
The people that aren't wealthy but are conservative benefit from hierarchy enforced by religion. It ensures that they're not on the bottom of society - that place is intended for various minorities.
This client looks interesting but community groups seem to be very WIP at the moment. Posts in those groups are sorted by community (some arbitrary amount is pulled), then requested order (new, hot etc) and it takes ages to load so it's probably not very threaded. Regardless, this looks promising and I'll keep my eye on it - thanks!
Look into OpenCore Legacy Patcher. I updated my GFs 2012 Air to Ventura and it's running okay. A bit clunky around MacOS updates since you have to specifically run patcher again to get graphics acceleration again but otherwise fine. It's definitely worth it for security updates.
We wczorajszej serii tweetów i dzisiejszej kontynuacji widać niekontrolowane miotanie się i zarzucanie wszystkim wszystkiego, z wątpliwym zakotwiczeniem w rzeczywistości.
Za słownikiem Cambridge, nieformalne znaczenie słowa meltdown:
an occasion when a person becomes extremely upset and is not able to deal with a problem or situation
Można to inaczej ubrać w słowa, np.
Doprawdy korespondencje Giertycha ze słonecznej Italii nie wyglądają poważnie i nie świadczą dobrze o kondycji emocjonalnej gwiazdy palestry. - jak ujęto zwięźle w felietonie w Polityce.
Zaczął wychwalać Lidię Staroń, z którą jako niezależną kandydatką (ale efektywnie współpracująca z PiS) miał konkurować w Olsztynie. Staroń jest między innymi fanką obecnego stanu prawnego w temacie aborcji, a Stowarzyszenie Obrony Spółdzielców, z którego się oryginalnie wybiła po latach wygląda na równie umoczone jak układ, z którym walczyło.
Zarzuty i symetryzm do środowiska Trzaskowskiego to tak bardzo "???", że nawet nie wiadomo do czego pije i jak skomentować.
Giertych zaczyna też mieć problem z rozróżnieniem swoich fantazji i rzeczywistości twierdząc, że Lewica będzie miała problem z przekroczeniem progu 5%. Nie widzi problemu z PSL / P2050 i ich startem jako koalicja.
Rozbawiło mnie też:
Tak przestrzegałem w roku 2007, gdy ułatwiłem zwycięstwo opozycji. I niestety PiS wrócił.
TikTok is absolutely scummy in how they nag you for access rights to phone features / data but I don't think there's a way to do this without adding third "Popular" tab next to Following and For You.
If they had this as a setting then it'd have to stay this way. Industry standard is to withhold such setting and constantly default to algorithmic page in the attempt to trap you there or make you tired of switching feed constantly.
Holding elections and referendum together is kinda illegal but who's going to stop them.
EU is suing us because supreme court doesn't meet criteria for being independent and impartial. Constitutional court is even worse.
The questions are "have you stopped beating your wife yet?" themed and any participation legitimizes this circus unfortunately.
Yeah, 50% quorum required.

They're A-D masquerading because it has some plausible deniability.
My criticism of that idea is also documented there.
But defederating Threads was fine lol.
We need to stop recommending Lemm.ee to newcomers, it's hostile to normal folks.
