idk i'm terrible at estimating time, but i assume the path to this is robotics- direct sensory experience of the world not seeing it through the human gaze

🫶 give humans telepathy for emotions and mental images with each other and with animals- less deception more coordination and empathy

first election I worked was the 2016 Presidential, which is always the most busy... we had ballots with blotchy edges from the printer, kept getting rejected by the scanner, sending voters back, confused why their vote wasn't accepted.... was utter chaos

not really, I kinda think our issues are upstream of actual voting regardless of exact methodology

true, but also.... having ppl who loved me motivated me to check myself into treatment, to try to everything before killing myself, but living for other people isn't really reason enough imo

no. the future I imagine is more ecological- AIs of various capabilities & resource requirements & motivations, competing and collaborating and feeding on each other

@EagleOnMars probably understands me the most, I think he's probably put in the most time listening to me talk about everything 😅

I run a precinct which includes an hour of paperwork to count & report & seal the votes & drop off the ballots at the courthouse

the vote counting process we follow makes it difficult for any one person to change the count of votes and for any single precinct to change the count by much- have detailed in previous threads the process we follow in Virginia... so yes who votes counts because of how we count…
