@Robusto with me everyone
It's just who he is, an old, grumpy man.
 
Robusto
Robusto
@Cerberus So it would appear. My answer was from 8 years ago, btw.
He has something like a 5:1 ration of down votes to up votes. Perhaps he was weaned on a dill pickle or something.

@Robusto and I like that his comments boil down to "you're not wrong, I tried really hard but I can't justify calling your answer wrong, but here's some random how or why that you missed"

@M.A.R. IMDB's favorite film.

@Robusto Yes

I like Cerb's starred message out of context
 
Robusto
Robusto
@M.A.R. Yeah. Like people asking me if I have a favorite song. I have like 15,000 tracks on my phone currently, plus Spotify and other venues, so how in the hell am I going to choose a favorite?
 
Mitch
Mitch
@M.A.R. "Why do they call you 'Red'?" "Because I'm Irish"
 
M.A.R.
M.A.R.
In fact I think movies like this are their own testimony to not being the 'best', they're often a 'best'.
 
Robusto
Robusto
@Mitch They call him Red because you're Irish?
 
Mitch
Mitch
9:09 PM
@Robusto OK man lighten up...just name the top thousand then.
 
Robusto
Robusto
@Mitch It's whichever song I'm listening to right now.
 
Mitch
Mitch
@Robusto That would make more sense than he movie

So a man going through a river of shit and then staying clean, yeah Shawshank is the best movie about that probably.

Robusto
@M.A.R. I put it on my "guilty pleasure" list. I like it, but I hate myself a little bit for liking it.
 
M.A.R.
M.A.R.
@Robusto why? Because it's a King adaptation?
There aren't many reasons I can think of for hating liking it
 
Mitch
Mitch
9:11 PM
@M.A.R. True, you don't want to get a cut swimming through all that
 
Robusto
Robusto
@M.A.R. Nah. I like Stephen King a lot of the time, but he has his limitations. He really doesn't write women well at all, for example.
 
M.A.R.
M.A.R.
I find Joan a neat name for some reason

Mitch
@Robusto the only woman in that movie was the poster
 
Robusto
Robusto
@M.A.R. Especially when it comes before Jett.
@Mitch What about his murdered wife?
Conspicuous in her absence.

@Robusto I don't think there was an actress on screen for that

@Mitch so the guy was doing it with a guy with makeup?

@Robusto another in a long line of artists who have invested heavily in eyeliner

That was illegal back then.

@Mitch I wasn't talking about that movie in particular. The conversation had broadened, in case you hadn't noticed.

Morricone never won a single Oscar
Then they had to give him two because they felt bad about it
@Mitch I think the journey is more important

@Mitch couple of months or weeks ago, I'm not that good at tracking time

@M.A.R. Time, like the Oscars, is overrated.

9:26 PM
Literally every shot is him black-and-whiting Whedon's oversaturated crap, and adding a couple of origin stories, and Henry Cavill's face doesn't look hilarious
It's still sorta funny.
@Mitch 4.9 out of 5
And it's 242 minutes

Batman - a bunch of cool gadgets and a car, has a valet, is an orphan. So what?

@Mitch and totaaaaally dies in the first frigging Avengers thing the heroes do. Totally.

Aquaman - plumbs the depths of who the fuck cares.
Imean you have to go swimming to appreciate anything he does.

@Mitch Snyder killed Superman in the first film of this "universe", BullvShit
I think you mentioned you've watched the movie?
 
Mitch
Mitch
@M.A.R. Oh. Once again a reference to something I can't remember well because I haven't seen it or plan to.
 
M.A.R.

Also another Oscars fact: They threw every one of the trash Star Wars sequels an Oscar at least.
@Mitch he sounds British and far away
One won two? I dunno
Also fact: TV shows are where it's at.
Speaking of superhero adaptations, Daredevil is a pretty bumpy ride.
Season 2 was so bad it killed the show.
Season 3 is so good it makes you sad at the cancellation
But the problem is so much happens at S2 that you can't just skip it

Say what you will about Nazi's, but at least they're consistent
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
10:04 PM
Well that's not the thing. The thing is that he's literally too stupid to even make a solid Nazi argument.
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
@Mitch It is no stable democracy.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
He could stop for a split second and think, and he'd have one. But that's too much work. What he picks instead basically amounts to standing in the middle of the marketplace and shouting "I'm a nazi nazi nazi, a nazi is what I am".
Like, that's not even an argument at all.
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
@Mitch A fun story.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
@Cerberus on that note, when are you planning to read the Asimov in your tab No. 415274993.
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
Oh, uh.
When I get to it hehe.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
10:21 PM
@Cerberus so I've been thinking about that for a while but in the end it's kinda a purely academic point really.
A democracy is only as stable as the society itself.
But the same is also true of a monarchy. Or an oligocracy. Or whatever China wants me to call it that they have. Or any other system.
Stability trumps all.
And democracy, by design, is much more unstable than the others. Because everyone is expressly free to completely change their opinion, and because there's constantly a new generation of voters growing up ready to declare any and all values of their parents nil and void.
So by design it is easier for a stable democracy to slip into stable totalitarism or whatever, than the other way round.
As long as China are doing as well as they are, there's no point in dispatching of the party. Just like for as long as the Netherlands are doing as well as they are, there's no incentive for you to dispatch of the king.
But even in the stablest democracy you'll always have people voting Genghis Khan. Simply because they're dissatisfied. Or because they're still just kids trolling for teh memez.
@Robusto brace yourself, this is my stupidest question yet. Do you have an idea on the ambitus of the slide whistle?
I've checked the wiki but the wiki sez nothing.
So now I'm just watching random videos on YouTube trying to figure it out somehow. There must be a smarter way.
Short of buying one, that is.
 
Mitch
Mitch
10:47 PM
@RegDwigнt Now that guy was a real leader.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
@Mitch I didn't want to invoke Godwin. Or Trump.
 
Mitch
Mitch
@Cerberus If it wasn't clear, I didn't -mean- to do it, it's just that when you tell a little kid to relax while jabbing him with a needle, he may not relax.
The best part is that I didn't spray myself.
Little satisfactions.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
I thought a kid in English was an it.
 
Mitch
Mitch
@Cerberus Oh. huh. Was democracy one of the criteria?
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
Well yeah it was. It literally said "I think most rich countries are still fairly stable democracies. "
Like. It was the only criterion apart from the stability. Duuude.
 
Mitch
Mitch
10:50 PM
It's not like China was the most stable over the past hundred years. But my expectation going forward is that it'll change little.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
Tbh, nothing was the most stable over the past hundred years.
 
Mitch
Mitch
@RegDwigнt Oh. I thought it was just stability that was n question.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
Hence the duuude, dude.
 
Mitch
Mitch
you can keep adding little things to it, but that seemed to be the one that was necessary
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
Yes, like Cheddar.
On second thoughts, don't.
 
Mitch
Mitch
10:52 PM
cheddar is great as long as you don't have too high expectations
 
Xanne

Well, stable democracies get rich. Gotta figure what’s the cart and what’s the horse.
 
Mitch
Mitch
jumping into a threshing machine is great as long as you don't have too high expectations
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
@Mitch Well yes, that's what happened to the American democracy once they added cheddar.
Now it's sold in cans.
Hence my proposal to not add cheddar.
 
Mitch
Mitch
@Xanne China has eradicated (for whatever they like to set the bar at) poverty in their country over the past ... well over the past few years.
 
Cerberus

RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
10:54 PM
@Mitch Well, not all of China is Shanghai, technically speaking.
 
Mitch
Mitch
@RegDwigнt To be fair, the stuff that is in cans is only cheddar-like in sentiment.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
Is me point mate.
First you add cheddar, then you lower your expectations.
That never happens if you add parmesan.
 
Mitch
Mitch
@Cerberus I read that as "Only Arabia and China are not (-democracies-)" given that what we care about is stable countries as the primary criterion.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
That's why Berlusconi keeps getting re-elected every five years. Total stability because parmesan.
 
Xanne
Xanne
@Mitch Eradicated poverty?
 
Mitch
Mitch
10:57 PM
@RegDwigнt They've had a very good record in creating roads and bridges and high-rise apartmens and automating agriculture and all those things the European countries did to move people out of the countryside and in to urban white collar jobs (or more manufacturing or service)
@Xanne 'eradicated' may be too strong a word
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
@Mitch Yes, indeed.
@Mitch Hmm I think there is still a ton of poverty in China?
 
Mitch
Mitch
@RegDwigнt sends in startup idea to AngelList
@Cerberus Quite a bit less percentage wise than 20 years ago
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
@RegDwigнt I mean stable as in, existentially stable.
 
Xanne
Xanne
Much less sice Deng, who encoraged capitalism.
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
Established democracies have havoc and mayhem, but they are generally not overthrown.
@Mitch Yes, to be sure.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
11:01 PM
@Mitch the fuck is AngelList.

@RegDwigнt In a stable, well functioning democracy, it's not such a big problem if Genghis Khan is elected into parliament or something.

@Xanne Well, a constitution can be part of that.

@Cerberus well yes, that's what I'm saying. One year you're an existentially stable democracy, six years later you're invading Poland.

So, the USA and the USSR saved the world from the Nazi’s (and Japan and Mussolini) so socialism is wonderful.
Actually the 20th’s main problem was totalitarianism.

@Xanne Thank you. I was taught as much in primary school, but these days kids refuse to believe smh.
@Xanne also the clothes. Shudder.
 
Xanne
Xanne
Clothes? What clothes?
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
Mostly the 90s, the 80s, the 70s, and the 40s. I'm kinda okay with the 20s and the 50s.
 
Xanne
Xanne
Oh, you mean the whole century. Yes 20s were the best.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
Anyway. There's like 30% nazis in Eastern Germany again, so it's high time Putin started gathering some troops at the Western border or something.
I hope he reads this chat.
I don't have his whatsapp.

There are more flavours of far right than Nazism.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
Well for one, AfD failed to get rid of the nazis. For two, I'm not even talking about the AfD.
There's more flavours of nazism than AfD.
Certainly in Eastern Germany. Every which flavour in the world.
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
But not 30%.
At any rate, I'm glad there aren't that many Ossies.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
@Cerberus not everywhere no. Certainly not Berlin. But Saxonia and Thuringia? Oh yeah.
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
11:24 PM
How would you define Nazism, then?
I would say it requires the glorification of violence and dictatorship.
The essence of fascism.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
Disposing of democracy, free press, immigrants, the Euro. And yeah what you said.
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
Violence?
And what would they put in place of democracy? A strong leader?
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
That is a very good question.
For that they have not.
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
Then I think I would not call that Nazism.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
But if anything that only makes it worse. They don't have an alternative. They just want to see burn what is there.
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
11:27 PM
Still, a worrying type of far right.
So I expect the Verfassungsschutzpeople will keep a tab on them and act when necessary.
Or what do you call them.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
@Cerberus that's a weird point to make. Can't I hold nazi views in despite of nobody else holding them?
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
I don't understand.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
@Cerberus yeah they do that for the worst offenders, and even started doing that recently for the AfD. It's still up in the air.
@Cerberus well you said that if I don't have a leader you wouldn't call my nazism nazism.
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
I think what those people are is different from Nazism. I think it does no good to conflate terms. What will you call real Nazis?
@RegDwigнt No?
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
That's a no-true-scotsman type of question. I cannot answer that. In fact that's the main line of defense of any Nazi: insisting that they are not.
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
11:32 PM
I think it's very simple: you pick a definition, then you call people x if they fit it, otherwise you call them something else.
Picking a definition forces you to think about it, and it allows others to understand better what you mean.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
Well if you shout "Deutschland den Deutschen, Ausländer raus!" in my face, that's my personal definition, mkay.
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
In addition, you prevent discussions from devolving from the core issue to terminology. Because you know that is what OCD people like me will do.
@RegDwigнt 1. Why? 2. That's vague.
 
RegDwigнt
RegDwigнt
1. because you asked for my definition. What do you mean why. 2. that's not vague at all. I know a life-threatening situation when I'm in one.
 
Cerberus
Cerberus
Why pick that definition?
It's unclear to me.

Hold on, someone's trolling me back right now.

Earlier tonight someone on MuseScore posted, "I will make any score for you in ten minutes and send you a link to it on my Google Drive. You don't need to buy Pro. Just tell me the piece that you need and I'll send it to you."
So I replied "Bruckner, Mass in F minor, please. I've been begging everyone for ages, but no one seems to have the ten minutes. Thank you!"

Perhaps he has some wacky computer programme.

Now they're replying back "Sure thing, can you send me the link to the score".

You can send a link to a Youtube video?
 
RegDwigнt

That's a good idea actually.
Nope, nothing on YouTube.
That's a bummer. I would've totally sent them the link.
You have the best ideas. Sadly, they are completely infeasible! Why oh why.

I saw that one. No score in there.
No score in any of the others, either.
Though maybe it's only funnier that way if I still send it to them?
I'll save it for my next reply.

Oh, I thought he was going to send you the score.

That was pretty much exactly what I replied just now.
Also going by the profile picture it's a she.
Like, as in, what seems a genuine picture of them.

A they, then.

@RegDwigнt Why should there have to be a score in the video?
She didn't ask for a link with a score.
If she does, you can say you award the video with a score of 10/10.

@Cerberus I amended that bit just now because they did and you're right it makes no sense if I leave it out.

I'm glad the élite at Muse Score continue to entertain you.

@Cerberus that's a bit too on the nose. You should know by now that my trolling levels have far surpassed that.

No comment.

Any sufficiently advanced argument is indistinguishable from trolling.
