The Electoral College is an extra step that is redundant. It was a compromise made before anybody realized all of the party crap would happen.The parties then happened, and the redundancy became beneficial to them. The Electoral College, like much else, was worded vaguely in order for change to be possible, but why would the parties change it if it benefits them? 2 hours ago, Endless/Nameless said: I think the idea of an electoral college goes against everything democracy is supposed to be. If only the founding fathers didn't hate democracy so much that they reluctantly agreed on such a convoluted representative democracy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why can't we just have a majority vote for each state, and then tally up the states? Why do we need an electoral college? Mostly because some americans are to dumb to tie their own shoelaces. Hell, just look at how many parents leave guns around toddlers and then scream and rage that the gun industry is to blame.. Then again, can't say much.. we have a woman in holland who is suing the Tobacco industry because of her lung cancer (let's ignore the fact that she still! smokes 2 packs a day) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endless/Nameless Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) Aww shit, my internet is all weird. Some sites like twitter and IsItDownRightNow (ironic) refuse to load, claiming "the server can't be found", while other sites like Facebook and Reddit load just fine, albeit unusually slow. Also, I can't access my ISP's bill-pay site because it's rejecting my usual login, and attempts at resetting my ID send back errors. I'm currently in line to chat with a tech person, with.... 15 people currently ahead of me. Fuck you, Frontier Communications. So far, Phoenix is the only site that is completely unaffected.... EDIT: Never got to talk to that tech person, but sites are loading properly now and Frontier.com finally has a notice up that their billing system isn't working. Good to know it was't just my account. I wish I knew what was up with the sites not loading tho. My internet has been doing weird stuff lately... Like for example, almost every day theres a 5-10 minute stretch of not being able to access anything, even though the router is properly connected and can successfully ping the ISP. Restarting the router does no good and you've just got to wait it out. Our lines are in good shape to the best of my knowledge, and the router was replaced just a few months ago, so I don't know why i'd be having problems. It's probably on their end, but they sure don't bother to tell you that. I should have stayed on hold and ask the techies about it, but they're little more than trained monkeys at that outfit so I doubt they'd know. EDIT 2: Whoa boy, now it's randomly deciding to not load images on some sites. I don't need this shit. >:\ EDIT 3: Haha, now their Twitter support page is blowing up with Identical complaints coming in from every corner of the US..... How did they manage to fuck up their service for the entire nation?? I hate this company. Edited May 2, 2016 by Endless/Nameless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrGravitas Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Well, today was largely a bust. But, I did get to interview a prospective new team member! He seems like he'd be an excellent addition to the team (tomorrow's candidate has a really tough act to follow). He had a pretty cool necklace with a bear on it.

Crazy Lee Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Don't know why, sometimes, using Firefox, I'll have facebook up in a tab and it causes all my tabs and every website to refuse to load, as if my internet went down. The instant I close the FB tab, all the other tags will immediately load and the internet will work fine. It will basically act as if I unplugged the internet for as long as the fb tag is open. Close it, everything's fine. Also, speaking of FB, Target put up an ad for their Civil War toys. The REAL civil war is currently in the comments, where ignorant Americans bitch about Trans people in the bathroom. Keep whining you fucks, as you continuously remind me of how smarter I am than you as you open your mouth and stupid comes out. Literally. Listening to people be stupid actually makes me feel like the vast majority of humanity are primitive cockroaches, refusing to rise above their primitive animal instincts even though they have the brain capacity to do so.

The "Pebble" does sound like a good choice ($300 here) but I kinda like the extra functionality of the "Gear 2" ($500 here). The heart rate sensor, the APP support, the ease of use (that dial kicks ass) and having an IP68 water resistance rating is a selling point to me. The thing is, I don't consider myself a watch person, and it wouldn't be the sort of thing I wear every day even though they are appealing to me. The reason I usually don't wear one is because they feel uncomfortable, but the market is already flooded with smartphones and everyone has one of those, not to mention that they are still lacking any real innovation. I suppose this is my way of breaking free from the norm a little while still having something of the same equivalence, and I don't know anyone that actually owns a "Smartwatch". In any case, I might even go with an el-cheapo like the "Uwatch U8" just to see if I like the idea of having one... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrGravitas Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Two more interviewees today for the project. I honestly kind of enjoy the process (except when The Bureaucrat interrupts my interviewing process by asking follow up questions that I wanted to leave unsaid - what a candidate neglects to say can be as important as what they do say). It's also kind of neat to evaluate these people who were basically where I was at 6 (almost 7!) years ago and finally feel like I really have made progress in that time. Some days I feel like the years here have been a waste and I haven't grown at all; that I don't have a career but a dead-end job. Today was not one of those days. Oh yeah and the two other candidates weren't even close to on par with the bear-necklace guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they probably deserved it, I realize I'm a very impressionable person.

On some video about trans bathroom policy some woman commented "God doesn't make mistakes" which is what I hear a lot from small minded religious idiots. It's like their favorite catch phrase... it's not even a good argument yet they blurt it out and pat themselves on the back for "winning" the argument.
