System Informer is a nice, more modern take on Process Explorer. My favorite feature is the filter which supports RegEx and searches the process name, command args, path, etc. Really nice for monitoring a few important processes.
This will help you a bit to answer your own question: www.270towin.comYou can play with scenarios there.
how much does she have to win by to flip the electoral college to her side?
This misunderstands how our elections work. If you win a state by one vote (offer not valid in Nebraska and Maine), you get all that state’s electoral votes. If you flip several thousand votes in a few states, Trump wins the 2020 election even though Biden had around 7,000,000 more in the popular vote total. Also, if you’re from the UK, Americans are a little idiosyncratic in their voting. A good deal of people do the equivalent of voting for a Tory even if they wanted Labour in power. It’s called vote splitting, and it’s generally a terrible idea.
I believe this is the last election where Maine will have split electoral votes, since they joined the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact earlier this year.

I’m going to pile on to your good answer.
Since you only need 51% to win all of a state’s electoral votes, any additional votes beyond 51% could be considered excess votes that are not helpful. The system rewards candidates whose supporters are spread around, and punishes candidates whose supporters are heavily concentrated in a handful of states.
For example, in 2016 Hilary Clinton got 4,269,978 more votes in California than Trump. That’s 4,269,977 more than she needed to win the state. Meanwhile, she lost Michigan by 10,704 votes, lost Pennsylvania by 44,292 votes, lost Florida by 112,912, etc. Hell, she lost Texas by less than a million votes. If Hilary’s supporters in California had been spread around in other states she would have won the national election easily.

This is part of why I haven’t left Ohio, have beat back on the argument that “I should just move [to somewhere that’s more politically aligned with my beliefs]” (which I’ve heard that line enough, I fully believe it’s a GOP driven talking point), and I’ve encouraged other left-leaning folks to stay or come back.
The sneakers thing you mentioned was interesting. When I needed a new pair, I deliberately went to a local store because of the service. Did I know I would end up paying a bit more? Yes. Was it worth it because of the better service I got, and the knowledge that I was supporting a local business? Also yes!
Large retailers are going to have to adapt or die.
If you want to create a community you need to use the web Interface of your instance. In the top bar is a button called “create community”. Creating it from Jerboa directly is not possible.

To the extent that talking about something can help, it can be helpful. It brings it to the top of mind so maybe individuals err on the side of safety when they otherwise wouldn’t. Or it reminds workers of policies already in place.
To the extent it conflicts with the bottom line, it’s a waste of time. Unless the company is willing to legit sacrifice profits for the benefits of HSE, it’s just a nothing bullshit paper you have to sign.
Oh, yeah. I’ve been saying since I got here thats a good idea to impliment on a personal user basis. So that YOU see communities you combine into one bigger community, and anything you post could be posted on both (or more) at once.
joins open source decentralized community that’s part of the FOSS social media alternatives advocating for a more open internet
is annoyed that communities can be split across the different instances of lemmy since there is no one central authority
is annoyed that there are a lot of leftists driven off the big platforms by the rise in aggressive centrist or center right moderation to cater to advertiser demands
is annoyed people there really like the largest open source operating system
While I can agree that the tankies are horrendous and echo chambers don’t lead to good communities, it’s an unfortunate side effect of just not being big enough to invite enough mainstream opinion. At least two of those can be solved in time if Lemmy grows in popularity.
The European elitism though, yeah, that’s a shitshow everywhere, we’re a stupid bunch.
