it looks like ballots can only be challenged before they’re counted, which matches with what you just said.

I mean, in the US specifically, and everywhere else, they can be disregarded for not being valid during the counting process, see :

or, if you're more degenerate:

EDIT : thank you for being polite, you're welcome for my explaination.

Afaik in most democracies, ballots are verified as from being legit people, then anonimised , then checked for being valid (not spoilt ballots) then processed to see what they voted for.

During counting you can remove a ballot for being spoilt but not due to its caster being dead.

I still haven't properly played, I pre-ordered. I had some ok fun when it came out, got tempted about the plot, saw the miles of posts saying "fuck going to the center of the universe, not worth it" and left it alone.

I'm still ok with having made the pre order, because my motives have always been "I liked joe danger , and the small team behind it say they've got the balls to procedurely generate an entire universe? OK, let's make it happen." and they did. As far as I'm concerned, I got what I paid for.

now I just gotta be in the mood to play a crafting exploration game. I've been waiting for quite a few years... I'm afraid to check how many, because it's going to make me feel ancient

a good portion will fall into the bin of “meh, who cares”.

Some atari games are already there, and I literally had a module called "history of video games" at university. Those games came out in 1977 ish.

i'm back your side fuck that airport

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

I only stopped there for transit on a flight to Mexico. Just before boarding my flight I was told that I need a visa for the US, which is extremely weird because normally airports have transit zones where you don’t need any visa. But apparently the US is special, so you actually have to enter the country before going right back into the airport. This nonsense made me miss my flight.

Not like that, they didn’t let me board my flight from Europe to Texas. Even though I had a connecting flight to Mexico few hours later.

I am no longer on your side. if your journey is :

European country X -> Somewhere in the US -> Texas -> Mexico

Then of course you're going through security controls, etc etc. You're going from the international processing and flights part of the airport to the domestic flights part of the airport, which is the zone where any asshole in that country can travel in, so you're properly entering the US. Of course you need proper clearance and visas and all that.

I initially assumed your journey was

Non US country-> Somewhere in the US -> Mexico

which you'd be completely right
