Hard not to bitch when, as a citizen of another country, I could never vote, and yet people here still have to deal with the consequences.

You better believe the rest of the world will be bitching.

My experience with it has been mostly positive, however the laptop I’m running it on is aging and now doesn’t have support for hardware accelerated video decoding for some of the newer codecs. Watching some streams and videos has been a painful experience. Not sure if there’s a way around that.

we definitely want the fourth column to remain independent from government funding

“among rich countries, the United States is a biiiiiiiiig outlier [in per capita spending on public broadcasters]”

“Germany spends $142.42 per person on its public media. Norway spends $110.73, Finland $101.29, Denmark $93.16. Leave Scandinavia for Western Europe and you see the U.K. at $81.30, France at $75.89, and Spain at $58.25. Heading a bit east? The Czech Republic’s at $60.08, Estonia $55.70, and Lithuania $32.71.

Only trust the Anglosphere? Try Australia $35.78, New Zealand $26.86, or Canada $26.51. How about Asia? Japan spends $53.15, South Korea $14.93. Africa? Botswana’s at $18.38, Cabo Verde $15.22. 

And then there’s the United States — which spends $3.16, per person, per year, on public broadcasting.”

Fund PBS and NPR.
