Huh, I haven't thought of that.

Openly and well communicated, that could be a good monetization scheme for this kind of software.

I like Feedbro (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/feedbroreader/). It's a Firefox add-on, so it should run on almost anything that runs Firefox.

I'm just not sure how they finance themselves, so maybe don't use it if you are on some three-letter agency's naughty list.

This gun design makes me irrationally angry ...

How the ... where the fuck is ..... just WHY*?

*AI needs no reasons, I know, I know, but ....come on! `:(

This is the only way for me.

No Amazon or Google or Nvidia stuff. Just an old PC, a cheap wireless keyboard with a touchpad and you are good to go.

Well .... you see, we would like to help, but there are just more important things in this budget.

Like the ~900m financial aid to India. (A country with a quite successful space program, and currently a part of Russia’s Oil laundering machine.)

Or like the ~600m financial aid to the PRC. (A country with a far superior space program than ours, and a weapons supplier to Russia.)

Oh and don't forget the measly but oh so important 24m financial aid for bicycle paths in Peru.

So you see, there is simply nothing we can do, ukraine is just not important enough ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Very Interesting, thanks!

Still I'm not sure if I would trust that system more than a handcount with at least six eyes present at all times.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Good point, thanks!

As long as the hand count is recognized as the actual result i would be fine with that.Knowing humans and our tendency to be lazy, i fear we would first reduce the redundant checks and then skip them completely. In the name of efficiency of course.

Also after witnessing the history of absolute fuckups my government (germany) produced in the field of software and IT, i don’t want them to use machines. They lost any trust i had in them with any kind of technology. Let them count and add up by hand, i’ll gladly pay extra taxes for that.

Maybe i’m just a bit to paranoid :/

Well, he's got that one right.

Elections should be as low tech as possible. Everything going on should be verifiable with your eyes and basic tools only.

Keep it simple and keep it monitored by at least 3 to 5 people at all times.

who cares if the counting takes a few days, as long as i can trust the results.

And dear fellows in the USA, for the love of god, move the voting day to a Sunday already.

Unfortunately the software we use(d?) to transmitt and add up the votes is abysmal:
