ATLANTA — President Donald Trump’s executive order seeking to overhaul how U.S. elections are run includes a somewhat obscure reference to the way votes are counted. Voting equipment, it says, should not use ballots that include “a barcode or quick-response code.”Those few technical words could have a big impact.Voting machines that give all voters a ballot with one of those codes are used in hundreds of counties across 19 states. Three of them — Georgia, South Carolina and Delaware — use the machines statewide.Some computer scientists, Democrats and left-leaning election activists have raised concerns about their use, but those pushing…

I freakin’ love bone conduction headphones, which keep my ears open so I stay alert to traffic while I’m walking, or bears while I’m kayaking, or far more frequently, fellow shoppers when I’m stomping around the grocery store.

I’ve been using the OpenRun Pro 2 for the better part of…
