ITT we post and discuss conspiracy theories. Any and all are welcome.
The strained relationship between Israelis and Palestinians understandably fosters paranoia. So it’s not surprising to learn that conspiracy theories about Israeli involvement in Gaza abound. What might be surprising, however, is the form some of these theories take—like the one about Israel feeding Viagra to Palestinian schoolgirls. In 2009, a Palestinian man alerted the authorities when his teenage daughter started, how shall we put this, acting like an adolescent just discovering her sexuality. The authorities traced the source of the complaint to a stick of gum allegedly bought across the border and decided that Israel was attempting to corrupt the territory’s youth with sex-drive boosting sweets. In other words, it was paranoid claptrap on an epic scale, yet some still continue to believe that Israel spends thousands of dollars each year with no other objective than to make schoolgirls horny.
John Kerry is married to Teresa Heinz, part of the family controlling Heinz ketchup. John Kerry negotiated a deal with Iran that was strongly opposed by Israel. Soon after, Israel forced Heinz to stop labeling their product as "ketchup." They had to use the label "tomato seasoning." This puts Heinz at a competitive disadvantage in Israel, lowering profits, stock prices, and in turn, John and Teresa Kerry's net worth.
Diebold Inc., the manufacturer of most of the electronic voting machines in the U.S., rigged their machines so that they could engage in what is known as "weighted elections," whereby certain votes count more than others.

Every election since 2000 has been rigged via these machines.

"Quick follow up to this. The number of decimal places displayed for each candidate is three, not two. The number of decimal places in the total for the candidates is two.
The observant will note that the percentages shown in JResultClient work this way as well. The percents are shown with two decimal places, while the total is 100.0.
The reason it works like this is for esoteric statistical reasons. 12.23 might actually be 12.234, and 12.24 might be 12.237. When you sum a list of floating point numbers, the sum has one less decimal place of significance than the elements. Or just trust me -- I didn't like stats in school any more than you did.
The number of decimal places should all be configurable, but weighted races are really just a one-shot thing for Sacramento right now. When we get more weighted customers, this will be enhanced.

"Its a tough question, and it has a lot to do with perception. Of course everyone knows perception is reality.
Right now you can open GEMS' .mdb file with MS-Access, and alter its contents. That includes the audit log. This isn't anything new. In VTS, you can open the database with progress and do the same. The same would go for anyone else's system using whatever database they are using. Hard drives are read-write entities. You can change their contents.
Now, where the perception comes in is that its right now very *easy* to change the contents. Double click the .mdb file. Even technical wizards at Metamor (or Ciber, or whatever) can figure that one out.
It is possible to put a secret password on the .mdb file to prevent Metamor from opening it with Access. I've threatened to put a password on the .mdb before when dealers/customers/support have done stupid things with the GEMS database structure using Access. Being able to end-run the database has admittedly got people out of a bind though. Jane (I think it was Jane) did some fancy footwork on the .mdb file in Gaston recently. I know our dealers do it. King County is famous for it. That's why we've never put a password on the file before.
Note however that even if we put a password on the file, it doesn't really prove much. Someone has to know the password, else how would GEMS open it. So this technically brings us back to square one: the audit log is modifiable by that person at least (read, me). Back to perception though, if you don't bring this up you might skate through Metamor...

... There might be some clever crypto techniques to make it even harder to change the log (for me, they guy with the password that is). We're talking big changes here though, and at the moment largely theoretical ones. I'd doubt that any of our competitors are that clever.
By the way, all of this is why Texas gets its sh*t in a knot over the log printer. Log printers are not read-write, so you don't have the problem. Of course if I were Texas I would be more worried about modifications to our electronic ballots than to our electron logs, but that is another story I guess.
Bottom line on Metamor is to find out what it is going to take to make them happy. You can try the old standard of the NT password gains access to the operating system, and that after that point all bets are off. You have to trust the person with the NT password at least. This is all about Florida, and we have had VTS certified in Florida under the status quo for nearly ten years.
I sense a loosing battle here though. The changes to put a password on the .mdb file are not trivial and probably not even backward compatible, but we'll do it if that is what it is going to take.

This website explains in further detail why "rounding errors" aren't just errors, and how weighted elections means rigged elections.

Or you can check wikipedia's definition:
"Weighted voting systems are voting systems based on the idea that not all voters should have the same amount of influence over the outcome of an election."

Our shit is being using used to produce methane and then the methane is being used to create jenkum which the government sells on the black market.
Trump is the reincarnation of Hitler, and is plotting to build a wall with Mexico (Berlin wall) and get rid of (Take to death camps) all of the immigrants (Jews) and make America great again! (Make Germany great again!)
The reason why abortion is legal is because everyone in the government is a reptile, and they believe egg laying is superior to live birth. That's why killing a fetus is legal, but killing an egg is illegal.
The American government is working alongside a race of alien species for their technology in exchange that the alien species can do experiments on random citizens.
I am just a brain in a jar and my whole world is just a fabrication of various signals being sent to my brain by simulation equipment in a laboratory somewhere.
Big Pharma has been blamed for causing addiction to opioids and selling cut-rate drugs to poor people, but it turns out one rumor was true- Bayer's blood clotting drug made it easier to transmit HIV, and they knowingly sold the tainted drug just to make a profit.
Instead of destroying the drug after discovering this HIV transmission problem they sold it to Latin American and Asian countries, causing at least 100 people in Hong Kong and Taiwan to contract AIDS.
And as for the U.S. government stealing babies- it was all because of one Dr. Willard Libby, who wanted to study "the absorption of strontium-90 in human tissue, primarily bone".
Dr. Libby decided dead bodies would make the perfect test subjects, since the living don't like it when their bones are removed during testing, so around 1955 he initiated a dead baby collection program dubbed Project Sunshine.
From around 1957 to 1978 tests were conducted in secret on recently deceased babies sent to labs in the UK and US, and yet Dr. Libby won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1960.

>Berlin wall
The bait would have been subtler if you had left out all the retarded parentheses and just compared the mexican and berlin walls after the hitler statement

Earth is the first layer of hell. Life is a just a test and salvation from some sort of entity is the only way out.
