Having the citizens select the precincts to be autided introduces an abstraction layer. Otherwise....what is the selection process for picking the precincts? Some software that can be manipulated? There aren't THAT many locally.
Citizens? Select all drivers licenses ending with 6. Shuffle so you don't get -0016, -0026, -0036. Start calling people until you get 10 to agree to do it.
It is not easy to devise a good election system. On the other hand France may not even be trying...
Think of this, though. A 'good election system' would mean, in France, that the powers that be (white middle aged Frenchmen) would lose power. More minorities would gain seats. It's not hard to see why they're not trying to change it.
Plug? I have zero connection with sillysoft.com. I just like their iteration. As for eyecandy....the slightly earlier versions are more visually loyal to the boardgame. I currently have v4.52 on my machine, as opposed to the latest release of v5.1.2.
And as far as 'most' eyecandy...there was an official Risk game that had not quite 3D (very annoying), waving flags, actual marching armies...same basic gameplay, but waaaay too much eyecandy.
With a press of the button the USA could disable a large part of the economy in every first world country they choose, nobody is going to take that chance.
And because in this global economy, everything is so interrelated, they would disable theirs as well.
Mostly incorrect. An application bug, not an NT bug. The exact same situation could have occurred no matter what the platform. Poor development, minimal training, and pretty much zero testing, was the cause.
"NT played no role in the Yorktown's LAN crash, Baker said." "The Yorktown is unique because it was a proof-of-concept [ship] put out to sea without formal testing and software certification, which our products normally go through," Baker said.
Mostly Chinese (coolies) worked for the Central Pacific even though at first they were thought to be too weak or fragile to do this type of work. The men worked for an average of between one and three dollars a day.
Why wouldn't these people be in favour of an.xxx domain?
Because.xxx would do nothing.
-Who enforces it?
-Who defines it?
-It adds an air of legitimacy to porn
-Blocking "xxx" at work would be no certainty of no porn. It would block some, but with no enforcement, certainly not all.
Road maintenance is generally tied to gas tax and to some extent vehicle license fees. That is why some states are looking into taxing by the mile instead of the gallon.
No. Some states are considering a mileage tax, because their overall revenues are down. Specifically, the portion that comes from fuel tax revenues is down.
Road maintenance and building fully funded by fuel tax and license fees? Excuse me while I laugh.
There are far more 'expenses' tied to the road system than simply filling potholes. To be fair, a lot of general income as well.

Select a group of 10 local voters, at random, and have THEM select 10% of the relevant precints to audit.

Played in realtime, lifesize, via mobile phone, in one or more major cities in each 'territory'.
Risk is quite possibly the classic 'world war' game. A few hundred years of seasoning, and it may be equivalent to chess.
Yes, courtesy of Lux.
Approaches to checkpoints are rarely a straight line.

Count the bodies along those rail lines, and then tell me what color the sky is in your world.
Right. Virtual slaves.
Who built the railroads in the west?
No...they ARE 'bound' by the Kyoto treaty. It's just that what they have to do, and what western countries have to do, is vastly different.
A treaty that benefits me, and others have to pay for it, is a good thing!
People earn a living writing and selling software? What a weird concept!
Broadband is not the only way to access the Internet.
Required how, exactly?
Defined by whom? One man's porn is another man's vacation pics is another man's swimsuit calendar.
Because .xxx would do nothing.

Basically, add another TLD, with no real benefit.
Unfortunately, the cost of gasoline is reflected in far more things that just your gas tank.

Less than the other $7bn estimated from this transaction.
I miss the days when all we cared about was who was blowing who in the big house.
And signing the DMCA into law inbetween those BJ's.
It's only an issue when you're not getting any.
Very true. My word 'developers' was meant to encompass the entire IT realm. Analysts, PMs, and the like.
And triple the input time. Putting them even farther in the hole.
How about...'it doesn't matter'.
This is probably the result of a crappy design, with little interaction between the developers and the eventual users.
It does what it was designed to do. The problem is the design and implementation does not match what it NEEDS to do.
