The letters just stopped...

They never called back...

They don't reply to my IMs...

They ignore my texts...

Their last price hike they lost 3-5% of their subscribers, the 30% price hike made up for it.

I'm sure they did the math they've calculated that the increases will offset the loss is subscribers. From the article it looked like the royalties will increase so less subscribers paying more is even more profitable.

Airplane mode will work. The alerts are sent out via the mobile network. When airplane mode is turned off there is a good chance the alert will sound. There was a tornado that went through my area, the basement had no cell signal, as we were all coming out from the basement everyone's phones started going off.

All you got to do is get a job in the public sector that has unions, then do something remarkably stupid and you're on easy street.

The only amazing part is that they admitted they made the wrong call. At some point all the bad calls, referees assaulting players, ... adds up and you can no longer deny there is an underlying issue.

On a commerical scale the super brine may be economical to harvest the lithium. I know systems were getting close to being able to economically extract lithium from sea water. A more concentrated solution should make it easier.

I'm not arguing about technicalities, everyone's vote counts, except in the minds of election conspiracy theorists.

Your points are not about making everyone's vote equal they are about making the outcomes more granular.

Did the 6006429 people that voted for Trump in California didn't have their votes counted?

You've yet to address how votes in states that lose are not counted. I can see 6,006,429 people in California voted for Trump in 2020 so their votes were counted.

Swing states are not the only votes that make a difference. If enough people believed that in a solid state and didn't vote the outcome would change ie their vote counts.

Your vote should go to your choice, not the opposition.

Your vote doesn't get changed based on the outcome it stays the same. It is still counted.

Issue voting is winner take all and unless I missed it you don't have a problem with that.

What you are asking for is a more granular representation for votes, not to "make everyone's vote count".
