DaemonFC | and if you can tell me that, where does degrees F work better than degrees C | Jun 23 20:28 |
DaemonFC | of course there probably are situations where that's true if you can point out situations where the first statement is | Jun 23 20:28 |
DaemonFC | and if you can't, what's your point? | Jun 23 20:28 |
DaemonFC | B-) | Jun 23 20:28 |
MinceR | DaemonFC: all SI units except the kg are defined in natural constants, afaik | Jun 23 20:28 |
MinceR | actually the SI uses K, not C | Jun 23 20:29 |
MinceR | and K has the advantage of being based on absolute zero temperature | Jun 23 20:29 |
MinceR | not some random starting point | Jun 23 20:29 |
DaemonFC | the weather channel says it's 80 degrees F out there right now | Jun 23 20:29 |
DaemonFC | that's what I think in | Jun 23 20:29 |
DaemonFC | that's what I know | Jun 23 20:29 |
MinceR | the base points of the F scale are especially stupid | Jun 23 20:29 |
DaemonFC | that's what I'll use | Jun 23 20:29 |
MinceR | i could say they're F'ed up ;) | Jun 23 20:30 |
DaemonFC | it doesn't matter what the base points are on any measurement system | Jun 23 20:30 |
DaemonFC | they're arbitrary | Jun 23 20:30 |
DaemonFC | that much has been the basis of joke measurement units you know? | Jun 23 20:30 |
MinceR | "The zero point is determined by placing the thermometer in brine: he used a mixture of ice, water, and ammonium chloride, a salt." | Jun 23 20:30 |
MinceR | seriously? | Jun 23 20:30 |
MinceR | this is non-arbitrary to you? | Jun 23 20:30 |
DaemonFC | if I say the DamonFC degrees are 0 degrees water freezes, and a billion degrees water boils, and divide the difference to get incremental units | Jun 23 20:31 |
DaemonFC | then I have a scale, with reference points | Jun 23 20:31 |
MinceR | sounds like you've just invented the 100/billion °C unit | Jun 23 20:31 |
MinceR | congratulations | Jun 23 20:31 |
DaemonFC | yay | Jun 23 20:32 |
-BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[doctorow] Hey, @mpjamesmoore inventing justifications for digital locks doesn't qualify as "creative labour" #ImACreatorNotAnExtremist | Jun 23 20:32 | |
DaemonFC | it's still not more practical than measuring your degrees of temperature variation differently | Jun 23 20:32 |
DaemonFC | in fact, that's what I hate about the Celsius scale | Jun 23 20:32 |
DaemonFC | there's a lot of difference between a degree C but not a degree F | Jun 23 20:32 |
MinceR | (i wouldn't mind if they changed SI to define g as the base unit, not kg. having a prefix in it is silly.) | Jun 23 20:33 |

DaemonFC | so I ignore it | Jun 23 20:36 |

DaemonFC | case closed | Jun 23 20:36 |
schestowitz | -32 | Jun 23 20:36 |
schestowitz | not 4/9 | Jun 23 20:37 |
DaemonFC | 32 degrees and 212 degrees are easily remembered as the freezing and boiling points of water | Jun 23 20:37 |
DaemonFC | 0 and 100 are not "better | Jun 23 20:37 |
schestowitz | They are | Jun 23 20:37 |
schestowitz | I'll tell you why | Jun 23 20:37 |
schestowitz | Weight | Jun 23 20:37 |
schestowitz | Metric system defines a litre to be 1 kg | Jun 23 20:37 |
schestowitz | 10x10x10 | Jun 23 20:38 |
schestowitz | one gram of water is a squared centimeter | Jun 23 20:38 |
schestowitz | Ounces are not as consistent across units of different physical properties | Jun 23 20:38 |
schestowitz | So it's hard for you to think | Jun 23 20:38 |
schestowitz | You encumber thought with weird units | Jun 23 20:38 |
schestowitz | Like stone=14 lb (here) | Jun 23 20:38 |
schestowitz | and t14 | Jun 23 20:39 |
schestowitz | 14 | Jun 23 20:39 |
schestowitz | and then there's base 12 | Jun 23 20:39 |
schestowitz | Couldn't get any worse when you add the different between UK pound and US pound/ounce | Jun 23 20:39 |
DaemonFC | stone isn't even a measurement here | Jun 23 20:39 |
schestowitz | Gallon vs Pint | Jun 23 20:39 |
DaemonFC | just so you know | Jun 23 20:39 |
schestowitz | I know | Jun 23 20:39 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jun 23 20:39 |
DaemonFC | yes, the biggest problem with the Imperial/US measurement units is they were defined by statute | Jun 23 20:40 |
DaemonFC | but the statute for the modern US measurement system is pegged against the Metric system I believe | Jun 23 20:41 |
DaemonFC | so it's really just a different way of referencing metric units, with a different set of units that are just at precise because they're mapped anyway | Jun 23 20:42 |
DaemonFC | it's a mess | Jun 23 20:42 |
DaemonFC | :P | Jun 23 20:42 |
DaemonFC | but only because there are two systems | Jun 23 20:42 |
DaemonFC | not because one or the other is more accurate | Jun 23 20:42 |
DaemonFC | keeping them in sync is the real problem | Jun 23 20:43 |
DaemonFC | if the system you're basing your measurements on changes, your system is thrown off too | Jun 23 20:43 |
DaemonFC | so the only thing really really "wrong" with the US system is if the defined metric units change | Jun 23 20:44 |
DaemonFC | so the laws pegging the units specify that they are pegged to the metric units they were pegged to at the time the pegging was done :O) | Jun 23 20:45 |
DaemonFC | it all makes so much sense | Jun 23 20:45 |

DaemonFC | with no border crossing | Jun 23 22:29 |
DaemonFC | he should have just walked back into Canada from the many hundreds of miles of unmonitored unfenced area | Jun 23 22:30 |
DaemonFC | don't even need a passport | Jun 23 22:30 |
DaemonFC | sneaking into or out of Canada is not hard | Jun 23 22:31 |

MinceR | DaemonFC: the internal FoF system is instinctual and imprecise, and as such it needs to be overridden | Jun 23 22:31 |
MinceR | DaemonFC: such overrides are the way to civilization. | Jun 23 22:32 |

DaemonFC | MinceR: So is the urge to have sex | Jun 23 22:32 |
DaemonFC | it doesn't stop anyone that gets the chance | Jun 23 22:32 |
DaemonFC | provided that certain physical parameters are met | Jun 23 22:33 |
DaemonFC | and there's consent | Jun 23 22:33 |
DaemonFC | sometimes | Jun 23 22:33 |
DaemonFC | B-) | Jun 23 22:33 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: Nobody is worried about what's "right or wrong", everyone is concerned with how a situation can go badly for them | Jun 23 22:34 |
DaemonFC | and that "might" stop them | Jun 23 22:34 |

DaemonFC | people are really only strongly motivated to act based on what could happen to them | Jun 23 22:35 |
MinceR | DaemonFC: and they don't even think that through | Jun 23 22:35 |
MinceR | and that's why this planet is such a shithole | Jun 23 22:35 |
DaemonFC | groupthink | Jun 23 22:36 |
DaemonFC | litter attracts litter | Jun 23 22:36 |
DaemonFC | yes | Jun 23 22:36 |
schestowitz | MinceR: oilhole | Jun 23 22:36 |
schestowitz | BP found the G-spot | Jun 23 22:36 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: Society is limited to the lowest common denominator inside their sphere of influence | Jun 23 22:36 |
DaemonFC | litter attracts litter is one example | Jun 23 22:37 |
DaemonFC | a good example | Jun 23 22:37 |
schestowitz | BP: drilling Earth's dark anus under water | Jun 23 22:37 |
MinceR | DaemonFC: not everyone throws litter over litter | Jun 23 22:37 |
DaemonFC | if the place is already trashed by someone, what's one more pepsi bottle? | Jun 23 22:37 |
MinceR | so that theory fails | Jun 23 22:37 |
MinceR | well, maybe you think like that | Jun 23 22:37 |
MinceR | i don't | Jun 23 22:37 |
DaemonFC | graffiti is another interesting thing | Jun 23 22:38 |
DaemonFC | once any of it appears, more is on the way | Jun 23 22:38 |
DaemonFC | and the crime rate goes up too | Jun 23 22:38 |
MinceR | the PalmOS writing recognition? :> | Jun 23 22:38 |
DaemonFC | it's a signal that the law in that area is not well enforced | Jun 23 22:38 |
DaemonFC | people get more bold because they figure the police won't stop them anyway | Jun 23 22:39 |
MinceR | another thing you're getting wrong | Jun 23 22:39 |
DaemonFC | it fosters the mindset that you're more likely to get away with committing a crime there | Jun 23 22:39 |
MinceR | well, who else could stop them if the state maintains a monopoly on violence? | Jun 23 22:40 |
DaemonFC | MinceR: and schestowitz wonders why I carry a gun most often | Jun 23 22:40 |
DaemonFC | can you understand? | Jun 23 22:41 |
DaemonFC | the police won't help me, then it's my problem | Jun 23 22:41 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jun 23 22:41 |
MinceR | i can understand | Jun 23 22:41 |

DaemonFC | MinceR: Of course I hope I never have to shoot anyone | Jun 23 22:41 |
DaemonFC | it's a visual warning more than anything | Jun 23 22:42 |
DaemonFC | like MAD | Jun 23 22:42 |
DaemonFC | or a snake coiling up and baring fangs | Jun 23 22:42 |
DaemonFC | get the hell away from me or I have the potential to fuck up your whole day | Jun 23 22:42 |
DaemonFC | B-) | Jun 23 22:42 |
DaemonFC | if you live with savages, you have to be more of a savage than you would personally like to | Jun 23 22:43 |
DaemonFC | if violence is the only thing that they respect, you have to appear to be violent | Jun 23 22:43 |
DaemonFC | and the law of self defense is narrow enough that I know I better be sure that I'm under attack before shooting someone | Jun 23 22:44 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz likes the "walk up and shoot someone" caricature | Jun 23 22:45 |
DaemonFC | because it makes him more "civilized" | Jun 23 22:46 |
DaemonFC | not knowing that civility is a contrivance | Jun 23 22:46 |
schestowitz | http://www.linuxtoday.com/news_story.php3?ltsn=2010-06-21-018-35-OP-UB-AP-0000 "... is getting presented in a straight-forward, non-intimidating manner, on sites like Salon, rather than on the big "technology journalism" sites or in computing-oriented "portals" like ZDNet, PC Mag. et al..." | Jun 23 22:46 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz is a Nazi Superman!!! | Jun 23 22:47 |
DaemonFC | zomg!!! | Jun 23 22:47 |
DaemonFC | run!!! | Jun 23 22:47 |
schestowitz | [22:45] <DaemonFC> schestowitz likes the "walk up and shoot someone" caricature | Jun 23 22:47 |
schestowitz | I can follow some statistics | Jun 23 22:47 |
schestowitz | Like gun crime stats from the US | Jun 23 22:47 |
schestowitz | That proves my case better | Jun 23 22:47 |
DaemonFC | yeah, they pull a knife, I shoot them | Jun 23 22:47 |
DaemonFC | they pull a gun, I hope I shoot them first | Jun 23 22:48 |
schestowitz | And also, this shows that death penalty is not proven to be suppressant of crime | Jun 23 22:48 |
DaemonFC | there's some gun stats | Jun 23 22:48 |
DaemonFC | of course it's not | Jun 23 22:48 |
DaemonFC | the liberals have watered it down to where it's next to impossible to get | Jun 23 22:48 |
DaemonFC | and you're more likely to die of old age waiting for it | Jun 23 22:48 |

schestowitz | [22:49] <DaemonFC> the death sentence deters me from committing a crime that carries it | Jun 23 22:49 |
schestowitz | So provide proof | Jun 23 22:49 |
DaemonFC | death sentence is a stronger deterrent than prison | Jun 23 22:50 |
DaemonFC | which is already pretty strong to a rational person | Jun 23 22:50 |

schestowitz | He debunked some people re death sentence | Jun 23 22:50 |
DaemonFC | the banks rob you and get rewarded | Jun 23 22:50 |
DaemonFC | it's just how the law works | Jun 23 22:51 |
DaemonFC | the golden rule | Jun 23 22:51 |
DaemonFC | those with the gold make the rules | Jun 23 22:51 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: I mock people who bring up the golden rule by saying that | Jun 23 22:51 |
DaemonFC | "You mean the one where the people with gold make the rules?" | Jun 23 22:52 |
