Comment Re:May finally get servers updated... (Score 1) 118

Not all businesses are doing well enough or have enough capital to have everything broken for a while due to an upgrade.

Also, nowadays, there are so many online stores that if one goes down, people move on to the next.

In any case, in order to have sustainability, you need to survive the day-to-day stuff

Comment Re:I'd Like To See Electronic Voting Work (Score 1) 105

Internet voting sounds good in theory. But at the same time, I really feel that at least some effort should be made on behalf of the voter to actually cast a vote.

Honestly, there are many time periods to vote (early polls as well as voting day.) If people cannot be bothered to do this, do you really think that they will investigate any issues before voting? Heck, I still don't like that you can just check one box to vote a party in for all seats on the ballot.

We are already seeing the system rigged by busing voter blocks to the polls while offering food and other incentives. Why make it easier by not even requiring a physical presence?

That said, I think I'd be more in favor of electronic voting if we had more than two viable parties as it would be harder to game.

I were an American citizen I would file a complaint as instructed in the Tony Ortega post.
That's the right way to do it.

Posting as AC, because I already moderated the thread.

Why do you think we care the reason you are posting as AC? Do you think that providing an unprovable reason makes your post seem more trustworthy or authentic?
