@natecull Depends on the state - there isn't one "american" system, there's 50 state systems and a federal one, each of which is independent. (And each with their own failure modes.) Some places they do, other places they can't.

@natecull Typically, "needing votes" means you need them to vote for it. That's not really the case here - if all republicans vote against, the law still passes.

Hi everyone--we've had a big influx of spammers and trolls lately, so far all on other servers. Please report them when you see them, and make liberal use of the block button.
This current wave is pretty obvious trolling with blatantly racist content. I encourage folks to report the account and not respond. We will suspend these assholes as the reports come in.

<< Professor Douglas Hartree.. told me that, in his opinion, all the calculations that would ever be needed in this country could be done on the three digital computers which were then being built—one in Cambridge, one in Teddington, and one in Manchester. No one else, he said, would ever need machines of their own, or would be able to afford to buy them. >>
