Do you have more information on that claim that Starship was being used for tabulation in swing states?

I believe it's "... comes monsters", if you're talking about the Francisco de Goya aquatint. But I'm being pedantic. You're point stands.

Agreed. When I said "install," I meant everything, really. R&D, design, manufacturing, installation, etc. Even so, touchscreens are not a suitable replacement and never will be.

It had nothing to do with being a good idea. It was just the more profitable idea. Tactile controls cost more to install than a cheap touchscreen with a dogshit GUI. Bonus being you have a proprietary part, the consumer can't easily swap out later if they want. So you've baked in some nice obsolescence to boot.

Ain't capitalism great? Race to the bottom.

No, only because the next verse references god. And NDT doesn't buy into that.

Many places won't sell M rated games to minors without a guardian present. It also allows guardians to make better informed decisions about what they're about to buy for their children. It may not be a silver bullet, but it might start to put some pressure on studios to think twice about putting gambling in games targeted towards children.

I got mild food poisoning after eating one of these. Was not ideal.

Ew, the Waltons? No thanks.

Oh easy, cuz he's filthy rich.

Yeah but before science was really established, he was directly involved all the time. Now he's too lazy to do the smiting himself? Seems like there might be a correlation there...

Of course. But it'd be nice to put these losers in their place.
