OK, care to show me the sources that estimate those millions of South Americans crossing the US border every year? Because I did look at the numbers from more than one source, and they were nowhere near those.
Hyperbole is the use of exaggeration as a rhetorical device or figure of speech. It may be used to evoke strong feelings or to create a strong impression, but is not meant to be taken literally.
It depends on the kind of keyboard and your experience. My teenage brother can type that before you even finished reading it, but he types dozens of SMSs per day.
For most people, yeah, QR codes are probably faster.
Can an accelerometer make do as a poor mans' GPS by keeping track of all movements from the factory?
Even assuming that somehow the phone never lost power, accelerometers are nowhere near as precise as to keep a decent position over more than a few meters.
According to a Russian newspaper, Kommersant, there was a source in the Ukranian ministry confirming that the raid was scheduled to coincide with the Prime Ministerâs trip to the United States, where he would be discussing copyright infringement.
I think it could not be more clear, even if the "source" is fake.
There's nothing wrong with using a public tracker; it's where you pick the magnet link that matters. Trackers don't do anything but tell you where the peers are.
Even if parent was saying that - which he isn't - being a citizen of Kenya wouldn't prevent him from being an US citizen, much like I'm a citizen of both Spain and Portugal.
Murdoch's News Corp (he owns 12% of shares but controls 40% of voting), Google (the founds control more than 50% of voting thanks to owning shares that give them 10 votes each), LinkedIn, Zynga and Groupon.
Fair game, are you serious? You people treat this like it's a sports match or something? Of course the experience of a candidate for President of a country is "fair game". Why the hell wouldn't it be?
And why exactly does "Obama and his minions" have to do with the AC who criticized Romney?
If your solution depends on keeping a 200 million people LAN closed from the outside, I can tell you right now that it won't work.
But how is MITM a problem? Issue everyone a smartcard (many countries already did it) and a $20 card reader with PIN, then use the card to sign the vote, and encrypt it before sending it. There, MITM avoided.
Unfortunately, there are much bigger problems with online voting.
Or, hang with me, have you consider helping them instead of bitching because the software they're gifting you doesn't work like you need it to?
And no, you don't need to be a programmer, just use a small portion of the money you'd be paying the proprietary vendor if the FOSS solution didn't exist.
Well, if you switch do Debian proper (they don't support derivatives), try the IRC channels. They have hundreds of people always on, and a few of them are real Debian gurus ready to help.
It seems pointless to me when there's Debian (which I use in all my systems), unless you want to keep the system without upgrading to a new version for more than three years, which we don't.
That said, it's not that annoying either. And I actually like Upstart, for now, at least.

Of course, that's a crime in most jurisdictions, so any startup would get their website shutdown and their asses in court.
Most websites nowadays require you to validate any email address, even if it wasn't the one you used when registering.
So millions turn into less than 200k? I was wrong, your problems are in basic math, not geography.

Weak on geography, are we? Central America != South America.

For many people I know, that would be leaving their chars and taking a plane ride.
Not that they're much interested in reading textbooks anyway.

Seriously, you people have issues.

My post is replying to an AC which is now at -1 :)
Not true, and my salary proves it.
Or, hang with me, have you consider helping them instead of bitching because the software they're gifting you doesn't work like you need it to?

I may be biased, but I have to agree.
I work for a FOSS based software company; we charge for installation, support, training and custom development of a GPL licensed ERP solution.
Our clients get a much cheaper solution and we contribute back to the platform (bug fixes, new FOSS modules, etc).
I won't plug my company, and the restaurant is probably not based on our country anyway, but I'd consider this approach.
Why would you build it from scratch, as opposed to using an existing solution and just paying for installation, support, etc?
Criticizing Mitt Romney makes one automatically an Obama fan?
I guess that's what happens when your mind is distorted by a de-facto two party system, though thankfully not every American has succumbed to this.
The US is not the world, but they do have a huge influence over it.

I use Ubuntu server at work, does that count?
