Or maybe actually give them a civics education? I'm behind a free online basic civics class every 2y that gets you a $250 credit on your taxes or something. There has to be a reason to actually take it and pay attention.
I want to say he's always tilted in that direction, he was equally unloved as SF's mayor. He's old money, he's always looked out for his caste's interests.
Fair enough. IIRC there's a mandatory civics test to complete 8th grade nationwide which was, ostensibly, intended to prevent electoral problems like this
I honestly think we should have a 20 question multiple choice basic 8th grade civics quiz before people are allowed to vote. We no longer have an electorate that's informed enough to be capable of voting. Score 60% or higher on that quiz or get the fuck out of the booth.
Edit: I'm incorrect, there's no national requirement that I can find. In CA we can't finish 8th grade without studying and passing a civics test covering this material: https://www.ixl.com/standards/california/social-studies/grade-8. So yeah, I amend my opinion - these standards should be followed nationwide.
Don't just look at sdb hits in the log. Open up that entire session in journalctl kernel mode (journalctl -k -bN where N is the session number in session history) and find the context surrounding the drive dropping and reconnecting.
You'll probably find that something caused a USB bus reset or a similar event before the drive dropped and reconnected. if you find nothing like that try switching power supplies for the HDD and/or switching USB ports until you can move the drive to a different USB root port. Use lsusb -t and swap ports until the drive is attached beneath a different root port. You might have a neighboring USB device attached to the bus that's causing issues for other devices attached to the same root port (it happens, USB devices or drivers sometimes behave badly.)
Always look at the context of the event when you're troubleshooting a failure like this, don't just drill down on the device messages. Most of the time the real cause of the issue preceded the symptom by a bit of time.
Our legislature passed RCV here in CA and our Dem governor vetoed it. Can't be electing progressives over more big money neoliberal Dems, gotta keep that voting power bloc intact
And yet with all of that being true his response to covid was objectively better than Biden's for the reasons that were already written down when you decided to reply to this post and not that one
You realize that the entire reason COVID spread so fast and sickened so many is that Trump gutted the CDC (and more specifically gutted the CDC's pandemic task force) then aggressively pushed misinformation during the opening phase of the pandemic right? The few folks remaining at the CDC were under politically motivated orders to play down the pandemic the entire time Trump was in office so that Trump could try and pretend his economy (which he inherited from Obama) wasn't shitting the bed while he ran for reelection.
Remember the bit where Trump thought a big pandemic would be good for his voting numbers because it was supposed to hit the blue cities harder than his red state supporters? Remember how we needed freezer trucks as temporary morgues for a year as a result?
Were you not following the court's impact on public health policy at all? Every sane state passed a mask mandate and other public health measures to combat COVID spread, then the courts (appointed by Republicans no less) crushed those efforts
Ah, I'm wrong then. In CA we have to study and pass this in 8th grade: https://www.ixl.com/standards/california/social-studies/grade-8
That should be a national requirement.
