  • If any vote ever fails in our government, it triggers an instant re-election. It’s called the Vote of Non Confidence

    It’s probably one of the most key parts of why our government is a little bit more resistant to clown-showing, because even a small crack in the parliament triggers a new election.

    So bills can only be tabled if the gov is 100% confident it will have the votes.

    Which means the conservatives could table a bill if they knew the NDP + Bloc would side with them on it, as then they have the votes to pass it.

    But since it’s the NDP, a very progressive party, it means they actually hold that fine balance of mediating power between liberals and conservatives.

    It’s pretty solid actually, and makes it so everyone the entire term could pass a reasonable bill.

    Pretty sure this last term the conservatives and liberals did agree on some stuff and some bills passed with both approving it, iirc.

    I think forcing them to occasionally work together like that helps temper the fascism lol.






  • If it’s not too too heavy, I’m not opposed.

    Bigger screen will make touchscreen typing on a keyboard less of a PITA

    Some games require rarely typing into the on screen keyboard, and as much as I like my ROG Ally, the small screen makes the onscreen keyboard a real pain to type on

    Honestly what I’d like is a secondary N64 style center back handle that I can hold with 1 hand while I type with the other, to make the typing way more stable.

    Awkwardly holding it out on the left side way off center fulcrums it as I type, which makes it less stable. You need some genuine wrist strength to fight against that lever action while typing.

    So, instead, I usually awkwardly rest it in my lap while I try and type so it’s stable at least. But this moves the screen a lot farther away so now I gotta squint at the small ass letters as I aim and type. Makes me feel like a goddamn boomer having to adjust my glasses and squint at the screen.

    So… yeah I dunno, I feel like this is something that could use a better solution.

    I guess I could use my Tap XR… 🤔
