    We need an alternate voting system, not a takeover of a major political party. At least ranked choice voting or maybe STAR voting.

    I live in a "first past the post" country that forces a two-party system and penalizes voting your conscience unless it aligns with one of those parties. While there may be flaws in Ranked Choice Voting that could emerge in fringe cases, it is so obviously superior to our current system that it is hard for me to worry too much about the nuance of how it might not be 100% perfect 100% of the time. Any (democratic) system is better than what we have now.

    The subsides are for getting an industry off the ground before it becomes competitive against traditional technology. EVs aren’t there yet because of inherent limitations to how our metropolitan areas are organized. Hybrids seem to be the best bet, until there’s a high voltage (1kv?) charger that doesn’t destroy the battery. Otherwise, society should investigate alternative fuel distribution.

    Yes I have a factory amp. I'll check crutch field. I also want to connect the manufacturer off the unit since they included the harness.

    Thanks, solved. That's why I'm thinking this is important to connect, although I'm not sure why it wouldn't have a female connector on it. All of the reading I've done said the amp power was the issue. Sure enough when I started following the wires, the amp control isn't connected. Blue has several labels on this unit, also bring the Bluetooth antenna wire.

    What is this metal connector?

    I'm installing a stereo head unit and don't have sound. This blue wire comes from the included harness and is the amp control wire. The control wire on the other connector at the unit also says amp control and isn't connected to anything. I'm assuming I have to connect the two wires and this thing (plus heat shrink wrap...?) will help. I'm unsure if I should use this or cut and strip the wires and find some wire nuts. How do I use this connector, (if it even is one)?

    So sacrifice Gaza to the whims of right wing Israel with unlimited firepower from Republicans? We don’t have a political system where various parties can have healthy competition. We should but we don’t.
