Has anyone been able to get folding@home running properly on a cloud server? I've attempted it twice so far to no avail

Is that the same as associating drive letter Z:\ to Dropbox and installing f@h on drive Z?

betamax: Pretty hilarious how many UKIP party websites are dead because the domains are no longer registered.
-
Wayward-
I thought UKIP party was dead
-
Wayward-
most people running it departed on bad terms anyway, so probably those same people who registered them.
-
JAA
They still exist, but yeah, pretty much.

'In the 2021 local elections, UKIP lost all the seats they were defending from the previous elections in those council areas.'

That's quite an achievement.

Wayward-
UKIP had competition too

Can someone explain to me why this happens? (Tom and Jerry Movie 1992 aspect ratios; cropped footage)

To distribute it for different screen sizes?

Turns out the total region is a 16:10 aspect ratio, which is more perfect than 16:9, and even my 10.1" tablets are 16:19. Wonder if I should hold my breath for a re-release.

JAA: yes, UKIP has splintered considerably since brexit in 2016, with voters often going back to Labour / Conservatives
-
betamax
Amd there's also the Reform UK party (formerly the Brexit Party), which probably didn't help

I did notice some trends when searching for twitter usernames to add to the list (I went through around 500 candidates):
-
betamax
Smaller parties, with the exception of the greens, and independent candidates, tended to have no twitter presence, while candidates from the large parties (Labour, Conservative and SNP) did have twitter presence.
-
betamax
This surprised me because typically when people vote for the large party, they're voting for the party, rather than a candidate. So I would have expected independents to have much more presence on twitter, since they have no other way of 'getting their message out'.
-
betamax
But then again, if you're backed by a large party, you probably have staff / volunteers that can manage the twitter account for you.
-
Wayward-
betamax: maybe they were removed from twitter for being rasis
-
betamax
Possible but unlikely - I searched through tweets (including those several years old) and didn't find many mentions of old accounts that no longer exist
-
betamax
For UKIP, I suspect that the lack of twitter presence is because the target audience isn't on twitter
-
Wayward-
Carl Benjamin was indeed banned from twitter.
-
Wayward-
Candidates who talked about closing the borders, rape grooming gangs, were banned from twitter.
-
Wayward-
A ton of speech is illegal in the UK.
-
Wayward-
I expect perhaps large party candidates only tweet press releases prepared by their PR department.

betamax: did you see any of the single issue parties?
-
HCross
Often present in individual towns
-
HCross
like we've got the: "Stadium Yes, Town Council No" party here
-
HCross
and then also the "Abolish The Town Council" party ... who stood in, the town council election
-
betamax
Yes, there are quite a lot of those.
-
betamax
Unfortunately they're also the ones most likely to not have crowdsourced details about their website / social media.
-
betamax
(We also had the 'Abolish the Scottish Parliment' party standing for election to the Scottish Parliament, and the same for Wales)

Hm. The AT wiki page on Medium mentions there were problems saving Thinkprogress due to its use of medium, but the thinkprogress page doesn't mention what the difficulty was

Out of curiosity (and maybe to add it to the wiki page), what was the issue with the Thinkprogress save, and how is it related to the general difficulties with Medium?
