You can end a sentence in a preposition, and whom isn't a preposition anyway. It's a pronoun.

It's always great to learn more. Next you can relearn colons.
"In modern English usage, a complete sentence precedes a colon, while a list, description, explanation, or definition follows it." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colon_(punctuation)
What happens in California and Texas isn't the problem so obviously one wouldn't start there. They'd start with swing states.
As above, those things don't matter. You say "simply get rid of the electoral college" as if that is the easier solution, but having a handful of states change laws fully under their control is far, far simpler than having numerous states agree to a change to the constitution, but the two things have the same effect. Do you want to stop having an unpopular president elected in the next 20 years, or the next 80 years?
It is a common misconception that disproportionate power of states is what has resulted in the winner of the popular vote losing the electoral college. That isn't what has caused it in the past, despite the possibility. What has caused it is the fact that nearly all states allocate 100% of their electors to the simple majority winner. If three candidates get 49%, 48% and 3% of the vote, the top candidate gets 100% of the delegates. That swings the electoral count out of alignment, and if that happens in enough big states, then the popular vote winner can get fewer delegates.
That historically has been what happened. If you were to imagine elections where all the states had equal power but still allocated their delegates that way, as far as I know, not a single election result would change.
If however you were to imagine states allocating delegates in proportion to the votes they received, that would have changed election results. There are different ways to do that, but the details are not that important. It's the solution. Is unequal power among states fair? Not really. But it hasn't had any impact in the past, so let's focus on something we know has unfairly altered multiple outcomes.
States should be doing this. Currently only two do: Maine and Nebraska I think. It wouldn't take a lot of states for this to fundamentally change elections. Five key states are all that's necessary. There's no reason to allocate all delgates to the simple majority, and no one likes it. It's unfair to the minority in locked down states, and it's stressful in battleground states. It results in candidate pandering to battleground states and ignoring everyone else. This is something people should be aware of and talk about more.
They have chosen as thier candidate the least popular president in recorded history. He had a decent shot when he was running against the second-least popular president. But now ...
They should have gone with Haley. She'd be a powerhouse at this point.
Google is genuinely bad now. I switched to Ecosia which is just Bing with a simpler front end and they use their profits to plant trees. I don't think Ecosia is particularly special though. Duck Duck Go, Bing whatever, they're all better than Google.
Whenever I set up a new computer then search for something, I'm always surprised at first seeing the awful layout and quality of the search results before I realize that I haven't changed the default search from Google. It's awful now. Seriously, how are people using it?
My new favorite way to search is perplexity.ai. It's an AI search tool that summarizes the loads of crap out there so you don't need to read through the junk that people write. It provides sources, unlike using ChatGPT, which is incredibly valuable. All AIs make shit up, so having links to double check it is a must. Unlike Bing Chat, or whatever Microsoft calls it this week, you can ask follow up questions to home in on what you want.
I think you've confused vegan with strawman.
It's easy enough to record using Zoom. Start a meeting with only yourself. I've used OBS too and it's fine, but not necessary if you're just looking to record something simple.
You'll almost certainly want something to edit the videos. Rather than trying for a perfect take, if i flubbed something I would start over from a convenient place and edit out the bad part. I hated Adobe Premiere. Reaper isn't really ideal for this stuff, but at least it isn't Premiere. I dont remember if OBS had anything. LightWorks was OK.
You'll want a good mic. Although lapel mics are ideal for your use, Bluetooth tends to suck. This webcam has an OK mic. https://www.logitech.com/en-us/products/webcams/c920s-pro-hd-webcam.960-001257.html
For unrelated reasons, I had an audio interface (Scarlett 4i4) and a cardiod mic (MXL 770). The Scarlett is very nice. I don't love the 770, but it's better tham a webcam. These are not critical but if you plan to do this a lot, these would make it sound noticably better, and maybe someone has a better mic recommendation, and again lapel would be perfect for lectures. Somewhere I got a baffle like this for $20 to $30. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1116780-REG/primacoustic_p300_0101_voxguard_vu_vocal.html
It makes a difference and for a low price it's nice to have if you aren't using a lapel mic. I wouldn't pay $100 for one.
You might need to update. Occasionally Google changes how YouTube works which requires NewPipe to change. You can get the latest version faster by adding the newpipe repository to fdroid. https://newpipe.net/FAQ/tutorials/install-add-fdroid-repo/
It sounds neat. Offline maps. If Google hadn't banned it I would have never heard of it. It's on F-droid too for those who don't want to download and install an apk.
I doubt it accounts for much, but a lot of authors pay up front now for open access. If the majority of authors did that, then subscriptions wouldn't make sense for most people. I don't think it's anywhere near the majority of publications now though.
