Diebold Leaks 2008 Election Results 196

Posted by samzenpus on Wednesday February 27, 2008 @01:07PM from the vote-early-vote-often dept.

samzenpus writes "With all the scrutiny that Diebold has received in past few years you'd think that they would be more careful but apparently due to a malfunction in some machines, they have leaked the results to the 2008 presidential race early. Hopefully this will be the nail in Diebold's coffin. Surely we have another company in this country that can run a sham election better."

Wow, embedding a flash movie directly on slashdot. Considering 90% don't RTFA this is going to be the worst /.ing that's ever happened!

Oh, that greyed out box with the NoScript logo is a Flash movie?
Glad it got caught by NoScript [noscript.net] rather than FlashBlock [mozdev.org]!
Yet, I wonder. Would AdBlock Plus [adblockplus.org] have caught it if those two were disabled?

Guess we know who woke-and-boke this morning. In the future, hit the bong after you've posted to /. for the day.

More to the point, why does Slashdot seem to be joining the whole "audio and video" trend? I had hopped that we were still a fairly literate group of people... if I want video and pics, I'll go to digg. I come here to read.
I would prefer a transcript of a video, than watching a silent show. Yes, I'm like most of you wasting my time at work and don't want to be caught by enabling audio on my workstation.

What smug comment? Oh, that's right, I don't see them because I use the Smug-Block extension.

Obama's support base goes asymtotic (Score:2, Funny)

I have finally devised the complex equation of Obama's increasing support, and I found that though his support is skyrocketing in Texas, it becomes asymtotic at around March 4. On that day around 2:42pm, his support goes to infinity and will form a black hole that will kill us all. Support Hillary before it's too late.
