    The article doesn’t say that. This is what it says:

    parts of southeast Brooklyn and Queens where Cuomo won comfortably. [My emphasis.]

    You’re not doing the bare minimum to arrive at an accurate picture of things. This makes this discussion a waste of time.

    For anyone who’s actually curious, this map shows the results for each election district.

    What hardware do you currently use and what software do you intend to run on the new machine? And what’s your budget situation?

    In any case, I would always recommend to buy used or refurbished hardware. Even if it’s not necessary financially, it’s better for the environment.















  • Some thoughts (as someone from Germany): There is a way in which wins like this can turn into disasters for socialism: if he wins the mayoral election, but then fails to build the administrative platform that he would need to succeed in his tasks. New Yorkers should not take for granted that he will be able to improve things just because of the powers of the office. I’m saying this because I hope that as many New Yorkers as possible will see the necessity to support him along the entire way, and to continue growing their own community efforts.







  • Gebrauchte Bücher sucht man am besten über eurobuch.de, das als Metasuchmaschine quasi alle großen Plattformen für gebrauchte Bücher (auch international) abdeckt.

    Man kann sich auch Suchagenten einstellen, sodass man z.B. eine E-Mail bekommt, sobald ein neues Angebot unterhalb eines bestimmten Preises gefunden wird.

    Nur aufpassen, dass mit AbeBooks und ZVAB mindestens zwei sehr große Plattformen zu Amazon gehören.




  • There’s a provision that says the trust structure can be changed without everyone’s consent if the intended change is in the interest of all trustees. Rupert, Lachlan and their team want to exploit this by arguing that the ongoing financial success of the media empire is dependent on it retaining its staunchly conservative editorial line, so that it is in fact (from a financial point of view) in the interest of the three non-conservative children if they don’t get to have any influence. The first judge wasn’t buying it; let’s hope that the others will rule the same way. (One argument in their favor is that the $787 million settlement that Fox News has to pay to Dominion Voting System due to a defamation lawsuit was a consequence of Rupert’s or Lachlan’s die-hard conservative messaging.)

    What’s less good: I remember dimly that, should Rupert live long enough (past theö year 2030?), he can change the trust at will again.
