And then you look at paintings from the Middle Ages and wonder how people evolved backwards

Exactly. At this point it can’t be about convincing undecided voters (whoever is still undecided won’t pay attention to any of this and will still be undecided). It’s more about whether or not people can be arsed to go out of their homes to vote.

Saying this: Please vote (as long as you are not planning to vote for the convicted felon of course)

From what I read is that republican led states usually make it harder to vote than democratic states, but I haven’t looked further into this.

Although maybe you technically actually are only voting for the elector in your state that then casts their vote on your behalf, I even read that there have been rare occasions where the state elector went against what their state voted for!?

This whole process of voting in the US seems very outdated to me (I am from Europe too). I know that it is hard to fundamentally change the system as long as nothing goes completely wrong. Germany had big loopholes in the constitution during the Republic of Weimar too. Changing this was easy after the total defeat during the Second World War. I have no idea how you could get through with updating the complete political system of a more or less „functional“ country. Even less if the country is as divided as the US is at the moment

I‘m not entirely sure, but I think a swan can break bones by hitting with its wings. So it might be not as easy as grabbing the neck

Took me a quick moment to realize that wasn’t a typo. Nice one

Might be. I am actually not quite sure about this

Maybe you need to put your tv in gaming mode so that the refresh rate is adapted to the input. Had the same problem with my AppleTV

Still cheaper than getting one from a paramedic

Yeah, but it is a cool proof of concept. I’m sure that in the following years the tech will get better and something like this might be a viable spying solution, but hdds are luckily dying out in private PCs

Thanks for pointing that out. I confused swappa with swappie

Definitely. It is still in alpha, so nowhere near a stable release. I believe that in the next year or so most of the things will get ironed out
