what exactly is hard about voting anyway? u go to your local polling station, hand over your reg card, get given a slip, go and put a cross next to some idiot or other then go and put the folded slip in the box w/ the slit. then go home. maybe we need to stop a trend to computerising everything otherwise we'll end up never walking anywhere... and all weighting about 800lb
terminals in polling stations is fine, but then allowing voting from home? wouldn't that mean people without a computer and connection would be excluded?
i wonder if e-voting is a good thing, ppl tend to think second on the net, flames start up because of the lack of reality in cyberspace and the instantness of discourse
would e-voting be the same? one click and theres the vote for Adolf Hitler Jnr, opps i changed my mind... too late!
traditional media voting at least gives u a few seconds more to ponder the voting decision and if necessary rip up or spoil your slip

wouldn't the programmer hours be better spent employed on writing apps and/or games for Linux as a whole instead of trying to port it to a games console for no good reason?
what u mean they can change their name because someone already registered a domain name using their registered company name? how about the person who registered that domain thinking of something original and registering that instead?!
something someone said a few days ago about Linux users having zeal like born-again religious ppl. i guess its like this, after years of being unsatisfied with their OS lot they have found the thing they were waiting for (the fact they could have found it a few years earlier w/ BSD is another issue but anyway...) so now they are so enthusiastic and bright, and giving it da big hype
however Linux is not for everyone, but if it can help you do your job better or help you learn something better or improve your enjoyment of your computer then go ahead.
i on the other hand use MacOS because it is the best

card authenticated terminal voting at polling areas could be a first step to electronic voting
what advantages are there of using this instead of good old paper slips, apart from the obvious cost saving?
they'd all vote for someone who sleeps with horses
you can vote in your pyjamas with real voting too, you'll just get some funny looks

unfortunately a lot of GPL ppl really do seem they are some kind of socialist heroes of the working class. to real socialists its kind of amusing
