[08:19:12] <SemperOSS> Mr-Late-to-the-Party is at it again: FatPhil, it's a bit of a coincidence as I have recently started using Seinfeld as an easy time-filler when I am engaged in activities where the hands may be engaged but a bit of surplus brain capacity is available, like eating dinner, doing rocket science, programming and such.
[08:19:55] <SemperOSS> It all started with Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee for me.
[08:22:24] <FatPhil> that's just rollergirl without the sex?
[08:24:01] <FatPhil> I think about 6 months ago I heard an interiew with JS and/or LD, and they kept repeating that when they stopped it, it was the most successful comedy program ever. So I thought perhaps I should give it a chance.
[08:43:48] <chromas> Speaking of LD, https://www.youtube.com

[10:15:27] <FatPhil> we do a splash of rochester ginger in our instant coffees sometimes
[10:16:16] <FatPhil> we used to grind some black cardamon into real coffee when we had a massive excess of the pods.

[14:07:21] <FatPhil> one down, one to go: https://www.zerohedge.com
[14:07:22] <upstart> ^ 03Billionaire David Koch Dies At 79
[14:11:14] <Sulla_> Koch was interesting
[14:11:32] <Sulla_> he was spending tons of money pushing the type of voting where you list your top five choices
[14:16:00] <FatPhil> he supported the electoral college system, that's about as negative thing as one can say about anyone's views on actual democracy.
[14:22:14] <Sulla_> Other than not liking him for putting money into politics, i generally agree with him on policy. Socially liberal and generally libertarian. I suppose it probably helps that I like the electoral college as well, but thats just because it seems to protect me from California
[14:24:12] <AndyTheAbsurd> wat.
[14:25:11] <AndyTheAbsurd> The electoral college gives outsized weight to Wyoming and Vermont and other states with ridiculously small populations.
[14:28:25] <Sulla_> I have an irrational hate of California so anything that keeps them limited is enjoyable to me
[14:28:58] <AndyTheAbsurd> oh, I read it wrong.
[14:28:59] <FatPhil> But from an electoral system point of view, that's not its problem.
[14:29:18] <AndyTheAbsurd> "protect me from" somehow entered my eyeballs but not my brain.
[14:29:19] <FatPhil> That's simply the current instantiation of its problem.

[14:30:34] <Sulla_> The electoral college college gives undue influence to the aggriculture states when it comes to the executive branch becaue of what they lose when it comes to congressional power
[14:30:41] <FatPhil> It is a system that lets, theoretically, 0.00001% of the population's vote outweigh 70% of the population's vote.
[14:32:07] <Sulla_> Yeah
[14:33:02] <Sulla_> Im open to suggestions on better methods of weighing the power of urban vs rural
[14:33:16] <Sulla_> because their interests have pretty much never aligned
[14:33:23] <Sulla_> and often work against eachother
[14:34:13] <FatPhil> USexit!
[14:34:19] <Sulla_> Even without the slavery issue the Civil War was on the verge of breaking out over trade
[14:34:54] <FatPhil> Slavery was as much an excuse as a reason. Way too much weight is given to it.
[14:35:05] <Sulla_> Well
[14:35:13] <Sulla_> it was the reason that the majority of southern states quit
[14:35:26] <Sulla_> but the only state that matters to me as far as being interesting is virginia
[14:36:39] <Sulla_> Virginia was in the process of voting to be a free state, but got so ticked off at Lincoln's demand to raise three regiments and send them south that they usexited
[14:38:33] <Sulla_> I always see it as three sides. The South which I care nothing about but was way too into slavery, the North that wanted a pretense to put more power over rural states, and Virginia/Maryland that actually debated the subjects
[14:39:36] <Sulla_> I need to get bck to work thouhg, have been awake for more than 24 hours at this point and if i work fast can get home and sleep in another 8
[14:39:41] <Sulla_> afk
[14:46:45] <FatPhil> Certainly it was about states rights and liberties, but to say it was about slavery is like say brexit was about getting #350 million to the NHS every week.
[14:47:38] <FatPhil> maintaining slavery was one of the states' rights that was an issue, it was an open would that could be used for leverage (for recruiting in particular).
[14:47:51] <FatPhil> (hence the similarity to the borisbus)
[14:50:31] <FatPhil> "specious humbug", gotta love Dickens. I wonder what he'd have made of Brexit.

[18:27:13] <janrinok> its Friday evening here. Just had a beer and spending some time on IRC and the site. Various jobs around the house over the weekend but mainly taking it easy, with some coding in between.
