@cstross @Nick_Stevens_graphics @notasnark MPs’ chairs in the Lithuanian parliament rotate but can only slide back and forth in a slot in the floor with a sliding cover to shield the gap. I don’t think I have a photo but I may look for an example. #Seimas
Here are details of my prediction for today's #Lithuania's #Seimas election.
I've used the same approach and model (and a lot of the same code) that I did in 2020.
None of the code, the website coding, or the text is very clean, but I'm tired and going to bed.
It may not have been a good idea to try doing my first #Quarto project with something that has a deadline - #ElectionPredictions are more interesting before the elections.

Lietuvoje - įprastas politinis ciklas: po krizių valdymo ir šiokio tokio augimo prie konservatorių (TS-LKD), naujam Seimo sezonui tauta pasirenka brazauskininkus (LSDP), kurie, tradiciškai, taškys išmokas ir pataikaus liaudžiai  Sugadinę visą ankstesnį progresą, kitai kadencijai žmones paskatins rinktis visiškus populistus. O po jų - vėl krizės ir konservatoriai. Ir vėl iš naujo - visada taip
