I'm watching these videos about the Georgia Phone Call and they're talking about if Dominion did any kind of weird hacks, and all I'm thinking is:
I need to get a voting machine.
Oh yeah, get a screwdriver and make a voting machine play DOS games."
What are they today? Linux on arm? God, are they android?
(possibly on arm, though.)
The 6502!
A very versatile chip, and it's still manufactured today.
Is there complicated glitch injection lurking in dark silicon?
Has the microcode been updated to calculate some things incorrectly?
At any point, inspectors can walk up to a machine and yank chips out to verify they're running the code they're supposed to.
Georgia probably has a bunch they won't need by the end of the week.
You basically have a product that no one needs, except every two years or so they need a couple million of them.
Of course, being an Apple II, you can only vote for Carter or Reagan.
Vice President: Rick Astley
Party: MS-DOS
Campaign slogan: "You are huge! That means you have huge guts!"
That was Daisy, Doomguy's pet rabbit.

My piece in the NY Times today: "the Trump administration is denying applications submitted to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services at a rate 37 percent higher than the Obama administration did in 2016."
Based on this analysis: "Denials for immigration benefits—travel documents, work permits, green cards, worker petitions, etc.—increased 37 percent since FY 2016. On an absolute basis, FY 2018 will see more than about 155,000 more denials than FY 2016." https://t.co/Bl0naOO0sh
"This increase in denials cannot be credited to an overall rise in applications. In fact, the total number of applications so far this year is 2 percent lower than in 2016. It could be that the higher denial rate is also discouraging some people from applying at all.."
Thanks to @gsiskind for his insightful comments. The increase in denials, he said, is “significant enough to make one think that Congress must have passed legislation changing the requirements. But we know they have not.”
My conclusion:
