“or maybe George Floyd ;)”
I see what you did, there!!
Thanks :)
This sounds pretty complicated for people the Democrats tell us are incapable of getting an ID.
When you sign up to be a voting delegate to the state convention you take a pledge not to vote for a different candidate than the one chosen.
Division or Multiplication...subtraction or addition?
***********************
Your question brought back a memory of a Dennis the Menace cartoon. (Yes, I clipped it out of the newspaper and still have it - somewhere.)
Apparently, Dennis’ pet rabbit died, and his remark was “I thought they were supposed to multiply not subtract.”
Theses treasonous fake Rs aren’t delegates though. I think any candidate running for office for the Republican Party needs to sign a pledge supporting conservative principles - if they ever subsequently support any other party or non-Republican candidate without resigning from the party then they should be expelled publicly so they can’t claim to still be a Republican yet be a speaker at the Dem convention for example.

Scientists have discovered a ground-breaking bio-synthetic material that they claim can be used to merge artificial intelligence with the human brain.
The breakthrough, presented today at the American Chemical Society Fall 2020 virtual expo, is a major step towards integrating electronics with the body to create part human, part robotic "cyborg" beings.
Connecting electronics to human tissue has been a major challenge due to traditional materials like gold, silicon and steel causing scarring when implanted.
Scars not only cause damage but also interrupt electrical signals flowing between computers and muscle or brain tissue. The researchers from the University of Delaware were able to overcome this after various types of polymers.
"We got the idea for this project because we were trying to interface rigid organic microelectrodes with the brain, but brains are made out of organic, salty, live materials," said Dr David Martin, who led the study.
Could potentially heal those with traumatic brain injury yet also pose a potential for great harm. That's why there needs to be oversight...

This brings up another somewhat overlooked issue: Chief Justice John Roberts is in charge of FISA, yet he has never, to my knowledge, called for accountability. Does this make him a co-conspirator? Does this make him vulnerable to impeachment?
I rather hope so. Roberts needs to be removed from SCOTUS, not because of his beliefs but because he is a fraud and has been from the start.
Next on his play list will be Blazing Saddles...
Just looking for the right hook...

Nite, lj. Rest well.
I would love that.
Honest question: can a president pardon a non-citizen who hasn't been convicted in a U.S. court? He was indicted but not convicted.

Yep
Just too be clear, I am not a blockchain expert - just someone with a tech background who has read up enough to understand the basics as shared here. Also, blockchain provides an important element of a secure voting system - the distributed and secure database - but a full voting system would include many other elements which would need to be defined.
I skimmed over the 47 page USPS patent application and it describes to a number of potential implementations. But to the point about sending ballots out to every voter, I think this can be viewed as at least two distinct processes. One is the voting process itself, acquiring, transmitting, and totalizing the votes for each voter on each ballot item. This is where the secure distributed database provided by blockchain comes in, and a number of implementations are described. This is basically a technical issue where blockchain seems to be a very good solution.
The other process is that of verification and authentication to determine that an individual is eligible to vote in a given election. I think we all would agree this is a weakness today (even outside Chicago!) and blockchain technology would not directly address this issue because it is a functional issue, not a technical one. However, blockchain provides the tools by which identitity services could be securely implemented. It’s a bit like deciding to build a house out of brick, but the mason has to be given plans to work from. But the combination of a good design and brick construction will produce a more durable house than one made from wood.
It seems to me that moving to a blockchain-based secure voting system is a way of forcing the weaknesses in the voter authentication process to be addressed, while the blockchain technology itself provides the robust infrastructure upon which to build it.

Seems like we are seeing major pronouncements of spying and the subsequent punishments almost weekly - perhaps to make the derps’ bowels squeeze....

They’re all (former) FBI staff who are guilty of malfeasance, and they’re listed in reverse order of their place in the hierarchy, suggesting there’s a domino effect coming.
