[07:48:01] <SoyGuest21826> why do no US sites have a "swingometer"?
[07:54:03] <SoyGuest21826> I guess this is saying about a 6% swing: https://ichef.bbci.co.uk
[07:54:58] <SoyGuest21826> had to enable JS from 13 sites in order for that png to be displayed statically on the webpage I grabbed it from!?!?!

[09:14:36] <Bytram> SoyGuest21826: Thanks for that! I don't recall ever seeing a "swingometer" graph before... took a bit to grok it, but now that I get it it's quite illuminating.
[09:14:54] <Bytram> hmm

[09:15:12] <Bytram> lol
[09:15:23] <takyon> I've had significant problems with the web-based IRC
[09:15:24] <Bytram> #g swingometer

[09:15:30] <takyon> I got it to work recently but I guess it didn't last
[09:15:46] <Bytram> strange!
[09:16:09] <Bytram> My only trouble with the web-based IRC has been when IRC was down. ;)
[09:16:19] <takyon> I don't think it's uMatrix or anything but eh who knows
[09:16:25] <Bytram> takyon: I just had ~25 #fites and it was running just fine
[09:18:47] <takyon> yeah I'm not saying it's a problem with IRC, just a problem between web IRC and my computer
[09:18:53] <Bytram> nod nod
[09:19:12] <Bytram> I'm curious... what browser and OS do you use?
[09:19:28] <takyon> it's a Chromebook with Chrome
[09:19:49] <Bytram> FWIW, the font is nearly microscopic, but I've used it with Chrome on an Android phone
[09:19:57] <Bytram> home box is Pale Moon on Win 7 Pro
[09:20:13] <Bytram> how does the problem manifest?
[09:20:17] <takyon> the obvious choice for my problem is one of the several addons I have like uMatrix, but I think I disabled them
[09:20:18] <takyon> hang on
[09:20:40] * Bytram hangs... out

[09:20:51] <soycowtakyon> welp
[09:20:52] * Bytram waves at soycowtakyon
[09:21:07] * Bytram waves at the ocean
[09:21:20] <takyon> are you experiencing a blue wave?
[09:21:50] <Bytram> trying to avoid the breathless predictions and give reality a chance to shine through
[09:22:42] <takyon> prediction time is mostly over. Dems won the House, Republicans gained seats in Senate
[09:22:58] <Bytram> fun times ahead
[09:23:05] <Bytram> final house tally?
[09:23:53] <takyon> unknown
[09:24:48] <Bytram> k
[09:26:38] <Bytram> yes, it is way-dark-thirty over here and I should be back in bed.
[09:27:34] <Bytram> woke for a bio break, saw the story queue had run dry, and a title capitalization issue, and couldn't help myself from getting on here and taking care of a few things.
[09:28:21] <takyon> CNN has 221 Dems, 199 Reps, with 16 more races still open. 218 needed for control
