The poll worker has a thing that activates the machine, and then it lets you go through the voting process, and at the end it deactivates and can only be reactivated by a poll worker.

Depends at what level the rigging is occurring. If you've snuck malware onto the voting machines you don't need the cooperation of the secretaries of state. And because of the way the electoral college works if you were strategic about it you wouldn't even necessarily need to do it in very many jurisdictions to change the outcome.

The electoral college is complicated. Various states have different laws binding their delegates to different degrees. For instance some states just say they have to vote a certain way, but provide no penalty if they don't. At least one state has a law that if a delegate votes for anyone other than the candidate who won that vote is invalid and constitutes the delegate's resignation, and the remaining delegates are to appoint someone else to fill the slot. To my knowledge none of them have ever been tested in court so it's unknown how enforceable they are. Each state gets one delegate for each member of Congress it has, so a total of 2 each for their 2 senators, plus however many Representatives they have (based on population). Most states are winner-take-all, so whichever candidate wins the popular vote in that state gets all the delegates from that state, but Maine and Nebraska give their 2 "senator" delegates to the overall state winners and then assign the "representative" delegates based on who won each congressional district.

1. Nearly all votes are cast on computers, and a good chunk of the computers have no paper printout ballot, meaning there is absolutely no way to verify their count, you just have to believe that they counted right. 2. Yeah... 3. Electoral College delegates are bound to vote certain ways based on the outcome in their state, so while the popular vote total for the country as a whole doesn't technically matter the outcomes in each state does. This potentially makes the election more susceptible to rigging though, because if you strategically hack the voting machines in a few key counties in a few key states you can potentially change the outcome of the election without actually altering the national totals very much.

I saw that one but was too nervous because at the bottom of the page it only lists Mac system requirements.

Amazon shipped it via UPS instead of the post office like they normally do for Prime, which means it won't be delivered until about 6 PM on whatever day it's delivered, so I'm going to be seriously disappointed if it's not delivered Thursday. If they'd shipped it via the post office like normal it would get here at like 10 AM, so Friday would be fine.

Obama: "I would advise Mr. Trump to stop whining"

No, I tried to force myself to keep playing, but it was just too damn frustrating trying to babysit her, so I gave up.

I once saw a documentary which was talking about black people living in Africa, who had never left Africa, and referred to them as African American.

Welp, Civ VI shipped, dashing my hopes of it going on sale somewhere else. It has, however, kindled all-new hopes that it might be delivered early.

But you're British! Categorization is up there with queuing as your national pastime!

I still have the physical Amazon preorder for that since with Prime you get 20% off, so I won't be getting mine until Friday. I'm still holding out hope though that it will go on sale somewhere before Amazon ships it.

I liked RE4 okay, even though I was a little off-put by how much more actiony it was, but then when it became a big escort mission I was done. Haven't played another RE since.

What was the issue in the Ring?

I'm hoping that Assassin's Creed thing is just that bullshit editing they do in trailers and that they're not honestly calling the Brotherhood "the Assassin's Creed".

http://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption2/ IT ONLY LISTS PS4/XBONE, NOT PC! Also it's actually called "Red Dead Redemption 2", so that's dumb as shit.

I'm crying...

Dishonored 2 is £34.99 on Gamesplanet, which after Brexit translates to like $1.63 in real money (actually $42.92 but it's still a really good deal).

I have Steam codes for Corporate Lifestyle Simulator, Huntsman, and Lifeless if anyone wants them.

I bought it and I've never heard of any of these games.

Too bad there's not a full list of what games might be in it. (I get that it's randomly selected it but it would be nice to know what's in the pool it's selected from.)

Yeah, the way you originally wrote it reads like you're saying Rockstar should release us, not release the game. @Thursday: Go to your profile, click "Edit My Profile" in the top right, and then click "display name" on the left.

Are you having word salad?

Yeah, that was my experience when I tried to play the GameCube remaster.
