Some games/software expected/relied on a certain CPU speed to run correctly. If your computer was faster than that, the software would run too fast. The turbo button let you toggle between the maximum speed your computer could go, and the speed that the software needed/expected in order to run normally.
Basically, there was an actual reason for the turbo button, it wasn’t just marketing on computers.
I can’t complete the survey because of the questions.
Some questions are single choice but should allow for multiple, like 29.
Some questions are too broad, like question 17, “why?”.
Even for an AI image, that’s pretty low quality. The bricks don’t line up.
I saw this as Jo-ever, and not J’over.

The US election is an election of elections.
They break the election into smaller elections, based on where people live. It doesn’t matter if someone gets 99% of the votes in that area, or 50.0000001% of the votes. Winning is winning.
So if someone wins 49% of the smaller elections, but wins them with a high enough amount, they can have more total votes and still lose the whole thing.
Edit: Let’s say there are only 3 areas of 10 people each.
Area 1: Goes to Person A
Person A: 9
Person B: 1
Area 2: Goes to Person B
Person A: 4
Person B: 6
Area 3: Goes to Person B
Person A: 4
Person B: 6
So person B wins 2 of the 3 mini elections, which makes them win the whole thing.
Person B had 13 votes, Person A had 17 votes.
Person A would win if it was “popular vote”
