[18:10:10] <chromas> FatPhil: He knows it's old; he's posted it several times—at least once a year :D
[18:20:03] <FatPhil> chromas: it appears in the newspapers almost exactly once per year too!
[18:20:34] <FatPhil> The 2015 story was repeated in 2016, ... and the new guy who did it in 2019 seems to be having it covered in 2020
[18:20:57] <FatPhil> I conclude that the slow news month is actually may
[18:23:34] <Bytram> FatPhil: that May be true.
[18:25:45] <chromas> Wow. 79 comments already on the Affirmative Action for States story
[18:30:20] <Bytram> Well, if the electoral college actually behaved as it was designed to, then Trump would most likely not be president. It was designed to have the electors act as a shield against charlatans and their rhetoric hoodwinking the general public.
[18:30:50] <Bytram> lunch time; biab
[18:38:48] <chromas> Yeah but what do you do when all the options are charlatans and their rhetoric?

[18:46:02] <Bytram> chromas: Good question. Write in somebody?
[18:47:02] <chromas> The real problem with America is after all this time of applying and reapplying and growing ivy up the walls, we still haven't upgraded to en electoral university :(
[18:47:49] <Bytram> looks like it's close between Scrabble, Irregardless, and Electors in comment counts.
[18:48:15] <chromas> from the bikeshedding dept.
[18:49:23] <chromas> I was just surprised how many comments there were already, while still being the latest story posted irredisgardlessness

[18:56:47] <chromas> Heh, now I just noticed someone highlighting their use of "irregardless" in the EC story. Need to get more crossovers
[19:03:20] <FatPhil> Bytram: I did an analysis of how 2016 would have gone if each *state* had to provide electors in proportion to their state's D/R/other breakdown, rather than just doing a state-wide block vote.
[19:04:18] <Bytram> Beware of Maine where each of the two districts gets an electoral vote.
[19:04:31] <Bytram> Went R/D IIRC.
[19:05:22] <FatPhil> NE also has independent EC votes
[19:05:54] <chromas> Well...? We're waiting
[19:06:13] <FatPhil> But yeah, if you've got 20 ECs, and 55% voted D and 45 voted Libertarian, then there would be 11 EC votes D, and 9 Lib.
[19:06:35] <FatPhil> find ~ -name *2016* is taking rather too long to find it
[19:11:41] <FatPhil> argh, that's not finding it, might need to get more inventive with the filename search
[19:13:43] <Bytram> find ~ -type f -ls > files.txt
[19:14:02] <Bytram> then just grep the .txt file?
[19:15:24] <FatPhil> the tree's in the dentry cache now, the finds are quick
[19:15:25] <Bytram> If you don't find it on the first grep, subsequent ones will be quick as you don't have the filesystem overhead of the original find
[19:15:28] <FatPhil> but I can't find it'
[19:15:48] <chromas> Put the files into a ramdisk
[19:16:05] <Bytram> found! --> "it"
[19:16:19] <FatPhil> Anyway, the final result woudl have been Idiot: N, Cunt: N-1, Loony: 1
[19:16:29] <FatPhil> work out who is who, yourself
[19:17:05] <Bytram> oh goody, here comes a thunderstorm
[19:17:36] <Bytram> all good people, I'm sure. :/
[19:19:41] <chromas> Ah, a start rack reference
[19:19:54] <chromas> or was it all good things?
[19:20:00] <chromas> all good $noun
[19:20:13] <Bytram> must come to an $end
[19:20:30] <carny> none of this political bread and circuses will change anything until politicians can be punished for not doing what they promised to do to get elected
[19:21:26] <carny> these idiots who are tearing down statues should be concentrating on politicians who are still alive
[19:21:48] <chromas> Yes. Once a politician's served, they get a trial with possible capital punishment
[19:22:26] <chromas> carny: but they love the politicians whose statues they would've torn down
[19:28:00] <carny> why wait until they've had years and years to do damage?
[19:28:34] <carny> have recall ballots on demand and immediate punishment if they fail
[19:29:30] <chromas> Sure but the post-service trial should be there no matter what
[19:29:45] <chromas> (even if you already hanged 'em for treason, still, do it again afterward :D)
[19:29:52] <carny> i'll buy that
[19:29:56] <carny> lol
[19:30:20] <carny> fine but you're the one who has to dig up the rotting corpse ;]
[19:30:56] <chromas> No bury; only trebuchet.
[19:39:33] <Bytram> chromas: why stop there? Go for a quaduchet or a quintuchet!
