This sounds a little like the AT protocol (or my weak understanding of it). AFAICT on a protocol level your identity and personal data is decoupled from a content aggregator.

Australia’s system is IRV (for the federal government / lower house). Schulze is significantly better.

IRV has the tendency to eliminate moderate candidates in the first round (only first preferences count in the first round) which is often where Condorcet candidates lie.

IRV doesn’t enforce two parties like FPTP but it still promotes polarisation.

Debian votes using the Schulze Method, which is a Condorcet method..

Condorcet methods attempt to answer the question “who would win if we asked everyone to vote on every pair of candidates”. Most of the variations between methods deal vary only where there are cyclic preferences e.g. people vote B over A, A over C and C over B.

They’re broadly considered the fairest voting systems available and they permit a candidate that everyone thinks is okay to win over polarising candidates (unlike first past the post and IRV, but like approval voting).

Back to the numbers, the big table is the reconstruction of the pairwise votes (people actually vote by ranking candidates but the ordering is taken to show your pairwise preferences)

Below that is the Schulze process steps being carried out. At the bottom the “Schwartz set” is the set of top, cyclic candidates. There is no cycle so there is only one candidate remaining and therefore a Condorcet candidate wins (the one people in general vote over everyone else).

That’s disappointing to hear. Which core did you get?

It’s smaller than you’re looking for but I’d be remiss not to bring up the MNT Pocket Reform

XMPP is the standard messaging protocol. I recommend Conversations for android, but of course any worthwhile protocol has multiple independent frontends.

VLC can play anything because of its reliance on the amazing ffmpeg. MPV also uses ffmpeg, as does any video tool worth it’s salt.

It’s fine for input, but Logseq “.md” files are only suitable for import back into Logseq (at least if they have any links)

PCjs uses JavaScript to emulate a small collection of hardware and software that I grew up with in the 1970s and 1980s, allowing you to experience their slow CPUs, low-resolution displays, and primitive sound effects, all in the comfort and safety of your desktop or mobile web browser.

Over time, PCjs emulations have expanded to include selected IBM PC Compatibles and more classic machines, such as Minicomputers, Programmable Calculators, Terminals, and Arcade Games. To learn more or contribute to these very modest preservation efforts, visit the PCjs open-source project on GitHub.

Vim hasn’t been able to copy to the clipboard since I switched to Wayland. Now it can and hopefully will do so in general as I have unnamedplus enabled, making the system clipboard the default one.

full Wayland support (including clipboard support)

Woohoo! This limitation has significantly reduced the utility of vim for me in recent times, so it’s great to see

Hilariously this is the easiest way to get HDMI-CEC support on a (Linux) PC

Also known as gesture typing or swype, typing by dragging your finger for each word rather than tapping each letter.

Just a heads up, glide typing requires loading a closed source library in Heliboard. Instructions are in the readme and it’s pretty straightforward, but it’s something to be aware of.

HeliBoard let’s you move the cursor by swiping on the space bar. Is that what iOS does?

Check what version of Syncthing-fork you’re running. IIRC there was a major breaking change between 1.x and 2.x, so they published a new app to make sure people only upgraded deliberately.

AFAICT F-droid hasn’t built the new app (yet?). The redirect is on GitHub’s end. You can also install older versions through F-Droid if you prefer (but not 1.x, I don’t believe those are published anymore)

Ah, fair point. When someone says “org-mode” I think of the file format usually, but I guess that’s probably not what colournoun was saying.

But also, apparently Emacs is on android

There are at least two org-mode apps on f-droid

Sorry, works for me on both Voyager and the aussie.zone web interface. No idea what could be wrong
