Make ballot-by-mail and online voting special-case-only (eg, registered expats; those on deployment; etc.) and such a small scope that it's not worth the coordinated, targeted investment in massive hack schemes, then secure using the best, reasonable internet-encrypting technology.
Both ballot-by-mail and online voting are meant to increase the convenience of voting, which should be as easy as possible to do.
If you want to keep those limited to specific groups and scenarios, fine. But let's expand the voting period beyond just a single workday --- ideally over the span of Friday--Sunday.
In fact, he said almost the opposite.
From the transcript:
I think that -- now, I don't think I've ever said this publicly, but I'm going to go ahead and say it now. We shouldn't be making it harder to vote. We should be making it easier to vote. (Applause.)
And what I haven't said -- I've said that publicly before. (Laughter.) So my Justice Department is going to be vigorous in terms of trying to enforce voting rights. I gave a speech down in Selma at the 50th anniversary that was incredibly moving for me and my daughters, and the notion that this day and age we would be deliberately trying to restrict the franchise makes no sense. And at the state and local levels, that's -- you can push back against that, and make sure that we're expanding the franchise, not restricting it.
In Australia, and some other countries, there's mandatory voting. It would be transformative if everybody voted. That would counteract money more than anything. If everybody voted, then it would completely change the political map in this country, because the people who tend not to vote are young; they're lower income; they're skewed more heavily towards immigrant groups and minority groups; and they're often the folks who are -- they're scratching and climbing to get into the middle class. And they're working hard, and there's a reason why some folks try to keep them away from the polls. We should want to get them into the polls. So that may end up being a better strategy in the short term.
Long term, I think it would be fun to have a constitutional amendment process about how our financial system works. (Applause.) But, realistically, given the requirements of that process that would be a long-term proposition.
So what he was really discussing was "How do we make it easier to vote?" And that if everyone voted, things would really change â" that everyone voting would "counteract money more than anything."
He did say that mandatory voting, like some countries have, might be good in the short term simply to get people to the polls -- but that a better plan, albeit one that is long-term, is meaningful reform of campaign finance.
The iPhone has a setting that automatically wipes the phone after 10 failed passcode attempts.
By default it's 10 and you can toggle it on or off, not adjust the number. You can adjust it through the Configurator utility, all the way down to 1 wrong attempt.
I'm sure Android has a way to do this. Probably other phones.
I've been a Mac user for 20+ years now and an iPhone user since 2007. Quite frankly, the hardware and software has never been better from my own experience. Go do a Google search and you'll quickly find that every new software release Apple has put out is "the worst ever." Same goes for hardware. Every time Apple has had a keynote, there have been torrents of negative reactions about how they're losing their way and going downhill. "No wireless. Less space than a Nomad. Lame." Remember that?
Those are just a few. The point is, over all Apple's QA is improved dramatically. The problem is that the iPhone is far more popular than anything else Apple has ever made. It's not that the software has gone downhill; it's that there is far more scrutiny on it -- particularly in the media. "It just works" is truer today than it ever has been.
If you just think of "smart watches" as watches, then of course it seems absurd to have to charge them regularly. Traditional watches don't need to be charged for years at a time because pretty much all they do is tell time. But smart watches aren't really comparable to traditional watches. The only similarity they have is that they are worn on your wrist (and can tell time).
Once you stop thinking "watch" and start thinking "tiny wearable computer", the charging isn't really an issue.
There is no way to tell these sort of apps apart from some scummy Skinner box which hits you up for cash after you're sufficiently hooked.
Sure there is. On top of "Offers in-app purchases" being displayed right next to the Download button, all of the available in-app purchases are listed on the app's page along with their prices.
The App Store rules also require that IAP purchase descriptions must "accurately describe what each item and how the item is used within your app".
Apple had live streams for events over 10 years ago. They streamed the Macworld keynotes at least four times and also had a live stream of their event in September 2010.
No the summary is not correct. It did not happen "hours ago" from any reference frame. Other articles written about this got it right; this one did not.
Matt Rogers, who oversees the department's loan programs as a senior adviser to Energy Secretary Steven Chu, said Fisker was awarded the loan after a "detailed technical review" that concluded the company could eventually deliver a highly fuel-efficient hybrid car to a mass audience. Fisker said most of its DOE loan will be used to finance U.S. production of a $40,000 family sedan that has yet to be designed.
Please find attached confirmation that your proposed military exercises to be held on Feb 29th have been authorised. I look forward to evaluating the performance of our strategic defences in a full-scale battle simulation.

"Unlimited" here means "without artificial limitations." At least that's what it used to mean when they first advertised it.
About 11 years, as a matter off fact. Better pace yourself!

Just make it as insincere as possible and write it in legalese ("Pursuant to court order 54522451A-L, requiring me to offer written apology...").
No one can force you to BE sorry, even if they force you to apologize.
I never made a big deal out of it, but then you insisted I was wrong.

I'm pretty sure it exploded about 21 million years ago.
If a supernova were close enough to be seen within hours of its explosion, we probably wouldn't be here.

What happens when there's a false alarm?
You can watch a video here of it in action.
Developmentally challenged.

Oh...pun intended.
if you are not doing anything wrong, why should you worry about it? If I am not doing anything wrong - then why should you be looking in my house?

Apparently, George Bush is now British.
Well, Apple now has the full Steve Wonder collection on iTunes. I am sure Stevie is THRILLED with the new iPod Video!
