[06:38:36] <FatPhil> Bashkortostan? That's Russia, now. Close neighbours to Tatarstan. That's also Russia now. Welcome to the world of exotic places. That are all Russia now.
[06:40:31] <FatPhil> Not a part I'm particularly interested in, as it's Turkic. I'll let the Mongols fight for their rights, I'm more interested in the Ugrimugri parts of the empire like the Chuvash and the Nenets. Who aren't neighbours. But are both Russia now.
[06:41:28] <FatPhil> (OK, Nenets are Uralic rather than Finno-Ugric, but no-one's proved they're not connected yet, so minorities stick together)
[06:50:35] <janrinok> I don't think that there are many in a position to challenge your statement!

[07:01:29] <FatPhil> Now I'm not saying that the Russian Empire needs to split up and return autonomy to the dozens of conquered peoples, of course.
[07:02:02] <FatPhil> I'm saying that Russia needs to admit it's actually still just the Russian Empire, and rename itself appropriately.
[07:02:06] <FatPhil> And then the above.
[07:04:40] <janrinok> I was referring to your identification of the different ethnic groups
[07:06:45] <FatPhil> We have an ugrimugri culture fest each year (minus covid years). It's always nice to welcome over musicians from exotic parts of Russia. The nenet yoikers were fantastic - couldn't have been taller than 1m40, and about as wide.
[07:07:57] <janrinok> lol
[07:08:47] <janrinok> And coming from somebody who admits to be on the 'stout' side of average is amusing in itself :)
[07:29:47] <FatPhil> did someone mention stout? is it beer time already?!?
[07:34:11] <janrinok> yes, somewhere

[08:50:47] <janrinok> I would tell you to put that in your journal but......
[08:52:36] <janrinok> s/tell/suggest/
[08:52:36] <SedBot> <janrinok> I would suggest you to put that in your journal but......
[08:53:09] <SoyCow1508> And what is wrong with my journal?
[08:56:32] <janrinok> nothing - but it will not get published on the front page
[08:58:03] <janrinok> We have been suggesting that people post such things to their journal for many years, but they still submit them which is a waste of their effort.
[08:59:20] <SoyCow1508> Judgemental much? How was I supposed to know it was a waste of effort before I submitted it?
[09:01:02] <FatPhil> because you have a bra^W^W^W^Wscratch that
[09:01:18] <janrinok> because we do not print stories such as that on the front page, we never have done unless there is a clear technical or topical link
[09:01:56] <janrinok> I am not being judgemental - I am advising you how to save some of your time.
[09:02:43] <SoyCow1508> Sounds pretty judgemental! Almost like you do not want any submissions. OK, I can take a hint.
[09:03:14] <janrinok> Of course we want submission - there is a list of topics that we cover which is available to everyone.
[09:04:16] <janrinok> we concentrate on STEM plus related topics. If you can show a link to STEM then by all means submit it.
[09:05:26] <janrinok> You have been on this site long enough now I would have thought that you had noticed that.
[09:06:15] <SoyCow1508> I just found this place today.
[09:06:59] <janrinok> Well go to the front page and click on the Topics link at the top left Navigation window.
[09:07:43] <janrinok> "if" you have just arrived, learn what the site is about before jumping in with both feet. It will save you feeling hurt when your submissions are not accepted.
[09:09:08] <janrinok> And if you ask me "what is wrong with my journal" you are actually telling me that you have an account. Your even posted you account name the other day in a discussion.
[09:09:43] <SoyCow1508> Or, maybe I just learned that this is a very judgemental site, and I have no idea what you are talking about.
[09:10:08] <janrinok> Well go to the front page and click on the Topics link at the top left Navigation window.
[09:10:55] <janrinok> If you are feeling hurt already you either jumped in with both feet - or you are simply trolling again.
[09:11:30] <SoyCow1508> No, about my account name. How could I have posted it the other day, if I only created it today? Judgemental, and confused.
[09:11:42] <janrinok> Troll
[09:11:57] <FatPhil> w.b. alzheimstarchus
[09:12:16] <janrinok> You haven't created an account today - I have all the new accounts displayed in front of me
[09:12:23] <SoyCow1508> I have learned that this is not a nice place for new people. Cancel my account, please.
[09:12:48] -!- SoyCow1508 has quit []
[09:12:48] <janrinok> you haven't got an account - what account name do you 'think' that you have?
[09:14:10] <FatPhil> We cancelled his 50 Fuck You Niggers accounts, didn't we? And the Fuck You Kikes ones? Probably the Fuck You Fags ones? Have I forgotten any?
[09:14:38] <janrinok> nah, you got the most important ones
[09:15:25] <FatPhil> So we've done what he wanted. I'm glad everyone's now satisfied.
[09:15:30] <FatPhil> That's service for you.
