The Fair Representation Act has been re-introduced in Congress. This bold solution can stop gerrymandering and make Congress work for every American. 

The Fair Representation Act can solve partisan gerrymandering, make every congressional district competitive, and encourage politicians to represent all of us instead of just their base. It does this by combining three reforms: 

• Multi-member districts. In three- or five-member districts, nearly every voter will elect a candidate they support. Voters like Massachusetts Republicans and Oklahoma Democrats will be represented in Congress. Gerrymandering will become nearly impossible.

• Ranked choice voting for all U.S. House and Senate elections. RCV frees voters to support their favorite candidates, and encourages candidates to reach out to more voters for second-choice support. When RCV is used in multi-member districts, it is a form of proportional representation.

• Uniform rules for congressional redistricting 

The Fair Representation Act can be passed without a constitutional amendment. It truly has the potential to transform our political system and create a more inclusive and deliberative government which respects and empowers all voices.

Ideally, it be able to hold some weight and a pistol. I'm thinking something along the lines of a sling bag or daypack.

Gushing about CoreXY:

I finally got around to upgrading to a klipper based core xy machine and it is magic I went for the K1 Max, since it was $680 after discounts and it's 300mm^3^ (1.5X the size of a X1C)

Accelerations are 10x faster, print times are 4x shorter compared to my highly modded ender3 and cr-10. this build took about 12hr of print time, normally it was 2 full days.

NO sanding, NO filing, NO heating things up to make them fit right.

Every single piece came off the build-plate perfectly ready to go, aside from my intentionally under-sized pivot and takedown pin holes. I like to drill those out personally...

Now for the specifications:

• Daichi Upper + shroud (modified)
• DS1913 Lower v1.2 (modified)
• Slim Everytown mag (modified)
• Get Bent angled grip
• Mini hand stop
• sling mount is just the mount from SG22 brace
• Sling is a laptop bag strap 😆
• The muzzle device is an AKM compensator I modified to work for AR barrels. It works marvelously to prevent muzzle climb. Check the video how the gas is going up and forward.
• The binary is the mythical Invisibinary by Klaviermeister. It was taken down years ago but if you have half a brain you can find it still. Fosscad of reddit keeps making posts begging for the files every few months lol. they all give up and pay $400 for a storebought binary.

Wondering about reliability? I have thousands of rounds through this binary trigger. check out this clip of a mag dump at 600RPM: https://imgur.com/a/khxhymP

Edit - I've been informed in another thread that the mod message may have been misleading and my post was likely removed by Reddit admins. I certainly hope that is true and if so the mods there are not deserving of my misdirected anger.

What's up, all! First post here on Liberal Gun Owners of Lemmy. I thought I'd share my most recent addition. I've wanted one of these for a while but they were pretty scarce for the last couple years. When I saw the 5.56 back in stock I jumped on. I love that it takes AR mags and 5.56 ammo. It's not my most practical purchase but I'm happy to own it.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a light? I'm not even a thousand percent sold that I need one, but what should I be looking for?

I'm in the process of getting licensed, and have been thinking about this topic a good bit.

Sometimes the dog whistles get a little loud for my taste?

Oh, podcasts would be great too!

I guess someone has to be the first to say: hello world. Here's to hoping for an inclusive home for some special snowflakes.
