During the 2000 election, the Diebold electronic voting machines used in many states stored results in an Access database. Kids today wouldn’t understand how disastrously insecure that was (Access DBs had an audit table that was manually editable). I have zero doubt that newer machines have similar “flaws” baked in (even if they didn’t use Starlink as was reported briefly), making the results absurdly easy to rig.
There’s also a huge huge risk of speaking with a master debater (yw). Smart people are everywhere. People who are genuinely good at debating are terrifying to argue with. It’s a rabid animal except they have facts and logic and easy to understand, well structured arguments. It’s infuriating.
What a shock. Jon wouldn’t hold back punches, and Musk knows that. Musk only goes on Podcasts where the host’s opinions change depending on the guest.
For me the weirdest moment was when Joe Rogan - before the election - said that Musk “saved us”. Not “is going to save us”, already saved us.
Drumpf also alluded to “he’s got the best coders, it’s just one line of code,” fElon will hand us the win! Before the election.
fElon also said before the election, “If he [Drumpf] doesn’t win, I’m probably going to prison,” [sic] alongside President Elect Drumpf

Wish my school has offered debate.
