His "bullying bluster and evasion" prevents his enemies
And as an American voter you are his enemy. Think about how you've been treated by him for a bit - exactly like those rubes he wants to fool and fleece.
Yes, I'm for Trump simply because he wants to reverse that trend.
So how is he going to do it? Yell at someone to fix it? He's got nothing and the party he is supposed to be representing is not going to listen to him anyway since they think he's come in from outside like a Cuckoo.
At this point Hillary's mouth is her worst enemy. Keeping quiet while Trump is busy attacking Republicans is better for her than saying something else that's stupid at the last minute.
"It's things like that which call for doing it all independently on a Federal level with competency instead of things like Florida 2000 that the world is still laughing at." Doing things on a local level results is a long list of stories like yours. Food safety is handled at the level, why not protecting the Democracy/Republic?
Of course I'm one of those freaks that think everyone should participate in an election even if they just leave the ballot blank. Proportional representation is nice too especially given the current circus where so many people do not like either offering.
I think if they had someone like you at MS instead of cycling through teams of kids then the UI of MS Windows 10 would not be so fucked up. Nobody seems to be doing product testing before release these days.
In related news, the $10k per year per seat scientific software used where I work is made in Pakistan. As a client we have to test each new version inhouse for a few weeks before rolling out - we are doing the QA testing they should have done before release.
The USA in the 1800s had some rich people, but the economy didn't really get going until there were a vast number of people who were not poor. As we see in parts of the third world, a few billionaires in a place just means a tiny number of people doing well in a shithole - "trickle-down economics" is an extremely obvious lie told to the gullible. You may not agree with the extreme "trickle-down economics" bullshit but some here are either gullible enough to fall for it or want us to be gullible enough to fall for it.
More simple than that. When you hear about a vendor with "back-ups, disaster recovery plans, multiple data-centers, and multiple peerings per data center" going down for an entire day due to a fucking leap year bug or one of their customers having no email for TWO WEEKS due to a DNS typo on an internal network it's a good idea to have another option to fall back on.
At the time I actually had a 70 year old former electrical transmission engineer rant at me about how shit the Pentium 4 was. He never designed microprocessors and even graduated before the transistor came out but he could list half a dozen problems with it that turned out to be correct - it turns out they were almost newbie mistakes.
pointing at the crypto sourcecode as a prime example of what couldn't be moved outside the US
I know a couple of people who got outsourced to BECAUSE the crypto couldn't be let out of the US, and because the customers were banks that needed to use the stuff internationally that meant the code had to be worked on outside of the US. Because of the law at the time it meant no Americans could work on it if it was for export - how stupid is that? However since the above example is Israel they are so tight an ally that rules about US eyes only are ignored, they'll have the code whatever the laws say.
Actually, no, the source I'm using for that nuclear death estimate number explicitly includes deaths from accidents in making material for nuclear weapons, waste handling, uranium mining
Well that is a pleasant change and the first time I've seen someone here arguing this point doing such a thing.
I usually get people trying to push the "fly ash is more radioactive than nuclear waste" angle at me, which is ridiculous on so many levels especially since the heavy metals (apart from mercury) end up in the bottom ash.
BTW, I'm referring more to how inconsistent things are than your local polling place that ran things well. If it was all like that everywhere then I wouldn't have anything to talk about on the issue other than describing a different system that also functions.
I really don't know how more simple you could possibly make it
Pencil. Paper. Or India's very simple cheap mechanical voting machines that max out on a low number of votes because ballot theft and fraud is actually an issue there.
When you've got voting machines, the lines depend heavily on the number of machines allocated to each precinct
Exactly. It doesn't scale. Yet another reason why the machines are a fucking stupid (and expensive) idea which probably would not have been adopted if Diebold wasn't such a major donor. It's not hard to do properly Pencil. Paper. Lots of people (scanners help too).
i still believe the justice departments and law enforcement authorities
They would not get a say with your suggestion. They follow the laws as drafted and your suggestion would require those who benefit from the current situation to pass new laws that remove that benefit. See also how hard it is to get rid of a Gerrymander situation.
Did you really have to drag in the completely irrelevant touchscreens in an attempt to support your view? I've taken up your suggestion of imagining a new vi user with context changing key labels and have come to the conclusion that it would confuse them even more and make them less able to operate without the changing labels.
For specific cases where a workstation is mostly using a single application, as others suggested here (photoshop or something), I can see a point and the optimus keyboard or this new suggestion would be good. However for general use with a fashion for applications to keep on changing key labels I think it would be very annoying.
Consider the case where you change mouse focus to another window and suddenly your keyboard layout changes.
While that is very likely to be the case the newest version of e-ink is plastic flexible screens. That might be what is used even though it's still rare. It's probably still hard enough.
While this will look cool and sounds cool we really do not have to look at the keyboard - we want to look at the screen. This is just a shiny hi-tech version of those per application cardboard templates people used to have on their keyboards in the 1990s when on-screen menus were shit. I can see this being fun for five minutes and then annoying as fuck - just like all those menus which change with context only on a keyboard that we've got used to thinking is static. See the annoyance of "soft keys" on monitors and other situations you are already familiar with.
With the greatest possible respect, I suggest you consider the likelihood of those charges occurring when the failure to deliver on time benefits the incumbent. If you see corrupt activities it does not make a lot of sense to report it to the corrupt and expect them to sort it out.
Here's the thing - when someone gets hysterical about a total non-issue your mental alarm bells should ring and you should check to see if they are using it as a distraction to get their hands on your wallet. Of course you already knew that, you can not be anywhere near as stupid as you keep pretending.
It's "seasteading" with a mailing address in space. It's not about space colonisation but instead about staying on the ground and pretending that you have diplomatic immunity to most laws and all taxes.

Come on now, the still isn't worth all that much moonshine boy so why are you worrying?

FFS - in that year you could have trained someone instead of impotently waiting for someone to fall in your lap.

The idea is about being immune to laws.
As I wrote above, quite pathetic.
It's "seasteading" with a mailing address in space. It's not about space colonisation but instead about staying on the ground and pretending that you have diplomatic immunity to most laws and all taxes.
Quite pathetic really.
You quoted it yourself, he's a doctor. He's dumbing things down to very simple examples for the consumption of you and I.
