Aramis posted:You've got it backwards. Impossible is pretty much indistinguishable from a regular basic beef patty. I find Beyond meat to have a distinct taste/texture that sets it apart, and makes it at least interesting. Neither of them really replaces a well made ground chuck patty, but beyond meat is perfectly satisfying enough that I don't miss it when home-cooked. Yeah, if you season Impossible and place it on charcoal, it's REALLY close to a mediocre burger. Beyond is its own flavor entirely, which is fine.

Push El Burrito posted:Here we get a little scantron type sheet and we put it into the machine and we do our vote and then it gives us the sheet back and it has who we voted for so we can look and go "hey why does my sheet have 14 votes for Trump?" and then we feed it into another scanning machine which I assume just shreds it and then my vote doesn't count. here we fill in the bubbles on a scantron sheet and feed it into the machine that counts them and drops it in a bucket at the end of election day they pick one voting machine per precinct (the most full one) and audit it to compare the machine's tallies to the papers and then they keep all the paper ballots until any disputes have been settled

OwlFancier posted:The issue with having the machine at all is that you're still reliant on it to even suggest whether there has been fraud. Which is why I'm a strong proponent of the watched ballot box approach. You have multiple people at all times and from multiple political positions watching the ballots all the time, so that's both your verification system and also your guarantee against tampering to begin with. Even if the electronic option can be verified you presumably wouldn't have any way of knowing whether it should be unless the result seems intuitively wrong to the people in charge? I suppose, although in a non-FPTP parliamentary system generally no one party is going to have that kind of power, anyway (either to commit massive fraud or to declare that everything is in order despite widespread irregularities). Look, keeping all of my money in a sock under my bed is more secure, too, but I'd still prefer to use a bank card, no matter how crucial money is in our society. That's why I don't think this is an argument that can be resolved. All I can say once more is that, if you're at the level of justified suspicion where performing basic actions electronically is a major cause for concern, then there's something rotten at the core of the (financial, electoral, whatever) system in question, something that can't be solved by switching to paper.

Seven Hundred Bee posted:I mean, I have malt vinegar in my cabinet for fries. its not that uncommon yea of all the non-american food affectations I think malt vinegar for fries is up there with dipping in mayo based sauces. I doubt there's any reason for McDonalds to ever offer little satchels of vinegar but most sit down burger joints tend to have it as an option.

Embarrassing childhood belief incoming: as a young kid I thought you could either eat your fries with malt vinegar, or with ketchup, but not with both at the same time. I would always pick ketchup. Now that I am older I know you can have both on your fries!

Phlegmish posted:As I said earlier, I have honestly never even looked at electronic voting from a security perspective. The idea that someone in a position of power would deliberately tamper with the results is unthinkable to nearly everyone where I live, I have never seen anyone at all bring it up, regardless of political position, from the far left to the far right. If that is happening, or you consider it so likely that you start to become paranoid about the possibility, at a basic cultural level your society has far bigger problems with democracy than choosing one particular voting method over another. I don't think anyone would intentionally try to rig it. I can't even imagine anyone trying. I just feel they would generally screw it up and do something dumb like reuse a key/counter pair in AES-CTR mode, or truncate a hash, or not space out counters based on plain text size, or some other highly technical bit of idiocy. Crypto is hard and I just don't see the government being willing to spend the time and money to get it right.

Space Gopher posted:Now add "easily verifiable by the voter" to the mix. This can absolutely be done without the voter needing to understand it but overall you are correct. Doing it correctly would require a level of time, money, effort, and technical competency from the local officials that I just don't see happening. Paper is just easier to work with for 99.9% of people.

spite house posted:In-N-Out's fries suck because they only fry them once. You can't just dump raw potatoes in oil to get a good fry; they need to be fried at least twice at different temperatures to stabilize the starch. Fast food outfits usually handle this by par-frying at a central location and finishing the job on-site, but In-N-Out has a No Pre-Made Anything gimmick. Sometimes standing on principle gets you a garbage result (feel free to use as political metaphor, or not) They're pretty good as a vehicle for animal sauce.
