And by tying votes to voters you increase the odds of voter intimidation and vote buying. These were widespread prior to 1896 when the secret ballot was adopted pretty much nationwide.
The secret ballot did not increase fraud, it reduced it, dramatically.
"In 1888, Louisville adopted a secret ballot to reduce this voter fraud and intimidation. The city was one of the first jurisdictions in the United States to adopt the secret ballot. The Louisville law also prohibited anyone but voters or candidates from coming within 50 feet of the voting booth and forbade candidates or their agents who came inside the 50-foot zone from persuading, influencing, or intimating a voter as to the voter's selection.
The state of Kentucky followed suit, adopting its constitutional provision mandating a secret ballot in 1891.
These reforms — a secret ballot along with prohibitions on campaigning immediately outside the polling site — significantly reduced voter fraud and intimidation. Indeed, most jurisdictions across the United States followed Louisville's and Kentucky's lead, and by 1896 almost 90 percent of states had adopted the secret ballot. The secret ballot is largely credited with rooting out the most overt forms of voter intimidation."
If you can cite an increase in voter fraud and intimidation after 1896 then please do, but your otherwise claim, with nothing to back it up, is less then useful
heh, partisan politics has very little place in the actual function of government, When it gets down to things like this both sides gladly work together, usually to screw us.
There is a general rule that a court will construe ambiguous contract terms against the drafter of the agreement. But this rule only applies where one contracting party is in a superior bargaining position.
Clock speed and not core count is what you want for gaming. Few games make efficient use of multiple cores, and even the ones that do are not going to scale up to many cores well.
First, you do know that FTDI is a Chinese company, right? Second, it's not that they have to ensure they don't break chips, but that they were intentionally breaking chips.
No, what it's going to do is get FTDI into trouble. See we have these things called courts where you take your legitimate grievances to. You don't start resorting to vigilante justice as that tends to weaken your case and run you afoul of the law,
So let me guess, You grow your own cotton which you then turn into thread, that you then weave into clothes, with which you then make your own clothes? No? then shut the fuck up you self entitled prick. Your computer was built by the same small asian people as mine.
And it's funny to hear you clamoring on about propaganda when that's all your little speech was.
And I guess you don't vote, which in my mind means you don't get to complain since you instead let the "mindless masses" control your life for you.

Your understanding of history is a bit off.

No, they recognized the mining rigs as having value, and that they were either delayed to the point of obsolescence or never shipped at all.
They had a DIY garage called Hacker's Haven, along with the Good News Garage in Cambridge Ma.
Wait you could afford a $1500 Google Glass but you cannot afford a set of normal frames? You sir have screwed up priorities.
>Corporation Charters are given out by the US government,
No they are not, corporate charters are given out by State Governments.
FTC is not the FCC. Now granted it would be nice if they were on the same page, but that rarely happens.

What, you mean you thought the FTC would actually bring charges against a major corporation? Exactly who do you think they work for?

Guess who is in the superior bargaining position.

That's why I don't get it, when have their ever been ethics in in gaming journalism?
Or something like it, it could have, in large friendly print, the words "Don't Panic" on the cover.
That's only because we scorched the sky and they could no longer rely on solar power.
My bad, Scottish company
No they set it to 0 making it unusable in any OS
Well since no OS will mount a USB device with an ID 0 the chips and devices no longer work.

Before I get on a plane? No thanks, I really like to try and relax before my flight,
Until their stock goes up again.

Follow the thread. Remember discussion starts with the article but rarely ends there.
And then they should continue on to destroy the month and the year.
