I’m curious, what are the other electoral systems you’re talking about?

Might be an issue with fonts?
Honestly, just use Debian. It can run under 200MB of RAM (default install), so it beats all distros on the list except for TinyCore and SliTaz, and it actually has packages.
Doesn’t look like more direct.
EP parties usually have a candidate for the Commission that they show during election, so voters know who they will support. On the other hand, the European Council members are usually chosen from internal politics and issues, and at different times.
Last time a union had president, it was quickly dissolved before first term ended.
That’s just a name though. The election would stay the same, even if it were called «First Janitor».
I don’t think having one person on position like this is good for union.
The position is the same.
Why? It would give citizens a more direct way to choose the Commission.
Honestly, no idea. The only solution I can see are NGOs. Specially at EU levels, you need to show that your opinion has support, and that you aren’t just pushing your fringe idea. And on that front I believe the EU hasn’t been lacking.
I think the EP would be a lot more accountable if it was elected on single member constituencies. This also has its own issues (main one being no minority representation), but it would allow a more direct connection with their electorate and people would know who to talk to when they want to push for something.
The only big change I can see will be Parliament proposing the Commission President, instead of the European Council. Apart from that, experience shows that motions of no confidence are rare, so I don’t think this will make the Commission less independent.
would perhaps not have been feasible to realize like they have been, if the European Commission couldn’t have the best commissioners for the jobs.
Those acts are approved by Parliament, which is where the Commission will be responsible to.
The solution is not to ban lobbyist (a big part of the EU legislative process is listening to outside organizations), but to put them on equal footing to normal people.
I’ve seen many references to TCP/IP as meaning IP + everything-on-top, usually when talking about other networking technologies like UUnet, OSI, etc. Also as the TCP/IP stack, usually meaning the (Free)BSD networking code used in other systems.
Not that I know of, but here are some between Lemmy and Mastodon:
Very nice, although I guess most communities in an instance are moderated by users from that same instance.
You can still subscribe to everything from Lemmy.world and your instance will remain up even when Lemmy.world is down.
I had no idea, just tried and you are right. Do you know if everything works the same, like moderation?
Your underlying model is not made out of words, but out of concepts. You can have multiple words that all map to the same concept, i.e. cosmos, universe, space. Or a single word that map to different concepts.
Aren’t the Olympics free?
