Found in my Calishat Snaps: YES WE SCAN. “Got an old USB scanner your computer can’t talk to? This web app is for you. … How it works. Your web browser emulates a whole PC running Linux with open-source scanning software (SANE). It connects that to your scanner via WebUSB.” George MacKerron, who created this site, made a similar one for using old printers called Printervention.

"Last week Heathrow completed a massive security upgrade that allows travelers to keep their electronics in their bags and to carry liquids in containers with a volume of up to two liters, far more than the long standard limit of 100 milliliters. Thank technology: better imaging and software have pushed checkpoints from two-dimensional x-rays to computed tomography (CT) scanners that build a three-dimensional model of your bag."

@SonofaGeorge @ZenHeathen @northernlights @CStamp @pinhman @gemelliz PS: Another reason not to use #ballot #scanners is the massive cost of transporting them to the many fly-in communities we have in Canada. And then bringing them back. As you always need a backup, that means at least two machines per community. Wasteful.

@SonofaGeorge @ZenHeathen @northernlights @CStamp @pinhman @gemelliz
Keep in mind: federal #elections are simple but huge. 1 choice per #ballot. Easy & quick to count. But over 340 parallel elections. Candidate representatives & individual voters can watch the count. An open process.Municipal elections usually have many choices per ballot. Those are complex, but small elections. Fewer scanners you may rent, fewer staff to train, but lots of choices to count.
#scanners don't scale well.

@SonofaGeorge @ZenHeathen @northernlights @CStamp @pinhman @gemelliz #Ballot #scanners are expensive. You'd have to buy tens of thousands of them, ship them, train staff how to use, provide redundant electricity, handle the data storage afterwards (or provide and secure data connections), ship them back to warehouses where they would then sit for years, rinse repeat. All the while protecting them against tampering both in the field, during transport, during storage.
An insane undertaking.

@SonofaGeorge @ZenHeathen @northernlights @CStamp @pinhman @gemelliz Doug, the feds have noticed #ballot scanners. They are not good.
They are s l o w. I've worked an election (CRD, BC) where voters had to go to the machine, ballot in hand. That created the longest lineup in any election I have ever seen. After making their choice, Viet had to wait in line over 90 minutes. There were several scanners, but they are finnicky. Some voters had used their own pens - doesn't work.

Scanners / The Brood Second Sight WARNING — contains spoilers for #Scanners, The Brood and also (oddly enough) Nightbreed. My first introduction to the work of #DavidCronenberg may not have been ideal, but it was probably fitting. It was through that classic promo shot of a dude with his head exploding from Scanners, in the pages of a much-thumbed copy of (I think) Starlog which got breathlessly passed round my classroom at school before event… #filmreview https://freq.org.uk/reviews/scanners-the-brood/
