    Do you have to live in Oregon?

    I think so.

    I'm waiting for them to verify my identity, so I can put some coin down for tonight's game. Broncos and the under

    It took two days, but I finally got in. Missed the Thursday night game, but I would have only gone 3-2 anyway so nothing lost.

    It's horrendous. I think they are running about a 50% success rate in people being able to sign up. All kinds of glitches. Thousands of dollars down the drain but this is expected from Oregon government.

    Shocking

    The 49th state in the country for education can’t figure out godaddy.com

    Why massive projects don’t do pilot rollouts to select groups to iron out these issues before go live will always baffle me

    Let’s see. Long ago, like in the ‘90’s, the State of Oregon put up almost $200 mill on a new software system for DMV that was never implemented.

    A few years back they paid Oracle around $300 million for Cover Oregon, which was supposed to be the state exchange website to sign up for Obamacare. They actually tried to get this up and running, but it fell on its face and was scrapped.

    Turned out you could just sign up on the federal site all along and it was really never needed.

    The poont is that besides all of that fuckery, the State of Oregon has also had massive data breaches in the last few months.


    I’m gonna go ahead and give it until next year until I trust the State of Oregon with custody of one of my bank accounts. It sucks but it’s the only sane move as far as I’m concerned.

    They said they did. If so it was a very small group. I finally got signed up but it was embarrassingly bad. Kate Brown can just go away, the sooner the better.

    I'm going credit card. No way I give them access to my bank. At least my credit card will flag out of lane transactions.

    instead of managing their money better the state resorts to this?

    Resorts? Everyone is legalizing sports gambling. As they should. Keep the money in the states instead of going to the Caribbean via shady online books.

    They did it to try to put a dent in the public employee pension liability.

    The fraud in that is that it was supposed to go the schools.

    State of Washington tech > State of Oregon tech

    Put that on the list of >'s for next year when those fuckheads need to be reminded which is the more superior State in this fine Union.

    Pump my gas, ducks.
