Ya, they absolutely could/should. A good example today is how a judge is present in a trial to explain the process, law, what’s required for jurors. You could have a similar advisory body which provides recommendations based on their expertise.
Athens had sortition, which was interesting. Everyone participated in the government via a lottery and the average person’s issues would be likely (statistically speaking) to be focused on and addressed.
We still use it today to select jurors. But it was originally for everything. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sortition
It’s been tried a few other times much later in history, but they always limited who could be chosen in the lottery (generally, only rich people). The original system which worked well selected among everyone.
Be aware that receipts (or any thermal paper) are toxic and leech through your skin. I’m not sure how they affect cats, but I certainly wouldn’t recommend holding them longer than you need to.
What a terrible day to be able to read.
After seeing how JD “couch-fucker” Vance used the American military base in Greenland to threaten them, I wouldn’t want American troops or bases anywhere near my country.
Babe wake up, new Linux socks just dropped.
Oh good, I’m glad we’re finding time for this as the global economy collapses.
It’s my understanding that most insurance doesn’t cover “acts of terror.” So wouldn’t this mean Herr Trump and Musk will need to cover these costs out of pocket, based on their own words?
I like the idea of using a notebook and using my phone less. I’ll give it a shot.
I use a calendar and reminders constantly. For everything. Anytime someone says something I need to remember, I whip out my phone and create a calendar event or a reminder right then and there.
The US is actively threatening Denmark/Greenland. It’s time for Denmark to shut down the US military bases there.
$4k/mo, plus utilities.
Get fucked, Donnie
Dems right now.
What could a banana cost, Michael?
PebbleOS was awesome, though. Such a well thought out system for end-users, and it already has tons of apps. Developing for it (in C!) is also super easy because it has an amazing SDK.
They’re corrupt because there’s no competition for their seat.
Until now. Primary the lot of ‘em.
Trump doesn’t care about Palestinian protests. He cares about people not being able to protest HIM. This is the trial run.
I prefer carbon steel. You get the same seasoning of cast iron and easy care, but it’s lighter so it heats more quickly and evenly. It’s a bit more expensive than cast iron but much cheaper than an All-Clad stainless pan.
I only use stainless for acidic foods, like tomato sauces.
