00:24:00 <demob> i had a fitbit charge HR for a couple of years, it took a ton of abuse. in the end something came loose and it got wet, but putting up with 2+ years of abuse from me is pretty impressive
00:30:00 <demob> https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/cecil-mabb-sentenced-over-2021-campground-abduction-of-5yo-girl-in-tasmania/ar-AARniPE?ocid=BingHPC what the fuck, 4 years, including time served?!
00:30:00 <demob> he should be put UNDER the jail
00:33:00 <demob> what a strange world. no wonder young couples dont wanna have kids so much anymore
00:34:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> fuck me
00:34:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> matt damon moment
00:34:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> i was trying to figure out why my microphone wasnt working
00:34:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> i accidently hit a button last night that i never knew i had lol
00:34:00 <demob> hehe
00:35:00 <demob> i was looking for my headphones a couple of days ago and i had them on
00:35:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> lol
00:53:00 <demob> bored and caffeinated

00:57:00 <demob> the blonde one i mean. theres 2 french actresses in it i think but one is only as a photo, cos shes dead
00:58:00 <demob> not really dead. just in the james bond plot

01:06:00 <demob> nice guy. i think hes in the states now
01:07:00 <demob> you can probably hear his SA accent
01:08:00 <demob> people from vic, nsw say vowels different
01:08:00 <demob> also people from nsw sound a bit lispy
01:08:00 <demob> lithpy
01:08:00 <demob> i dont know enough TAS accents to be able to spot on
01:08:00 <demob> e
01:10:00 <demob> i remember when 2 microsoft guys from USA flew to Adelaide because this BBS "The Cove" had copies of windows before it was released. it went down fasssst
01:10:00 <demob> microsoft are not kind with teh lawyers and court
01:10:00 <demob> the guy wasnt trying to profit, it was just an underground thing
01:12:00 <demob> i had way too much caffeine today., im laying down and have been for 30 minutes and my heart is doing 120bpm
01:15:00 <demob> what are you up to snoop, u at work?
01:15:00 <demob> wheres bonny?
01:16:00 <demob> https://www.msn.com/en-au/money/news/your-next-fridge-or-phone-could-come-with-a-rating-of-how-long-it-s-expected-to-last-if-lawmakers-endorse-a-new-productivity-commission-report/ar-AARmUvk?ocid=BingHPC
01:17:00 <demob> we had a fridge that was 30 yrs old, and when we sold it, it still worked great. i bought a mini bar about 10 years ago, it died within 5 years
01:22:00 <demob> i might have broken it or damaged it with what i thought was a pure sine inverter but wasnt, its modified sine and not for stuff with motors
01:23:00 <demob> i blame china not myself. they labelled it as pure sine
01:23:00 <demob> and snoop
03:00:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> wait why you blaming me ffs
03:10:00 <demob> haha
03:10:00 <demob> shrug,. sounded good at the time
03:12:00 <demob> https://youtu.be/Cnqu_8Lfv9s i want this
03:12:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [YouTube] � No such video!
03:12:00 <demob> your script is broke
04:05:00 <demob> https://7news.com.au/news/crime/us-parade-carnage-suspect-demonised-c-4794218
04:05:00 <demob> the crime he was just out on bail for was hitting a woman with his car
04:05:00 <demob> "the system is broken" yes it is! he shouldn't have been let out!
04:49:00 <demob> damn i love rPi's
04:50:00 <mr_MoOse> rPi's ?
04:51:00 <demob> raspberry pi
04:51:00 <demob> SBC's
04:51:00 <mr_MoOse> the teensie computers
04:52:00 <demob> ever used one? it still trips me out this 10$ raspberry pi zero W does way more, has way more power than any of the computers i owned when i was young
04:52:00 <demob> yeah the raspberry pi zero's are even smaller. the rpi 3 and 4's are about the size of a packet of cigarettes
04:52:00 <mr_MoOse> i thought about getting the kit at the local store
04:52:00 <demob> do it
04:52:00 <demob> oine mistake i made when i first ordered was not getting the official power supply
04:53:00 <mr_MoOse> was too busy keeping my 64 yr old motorcycle going
04:53:00 <demob> sure you can buy cheaper ones that have a micro usb port, and claim theyre enough power but they arent and it tells during boot its not powered enough
04:53:00 <demob> my stepdad is into vintage bikes - what have you got? norton? bsa? ural?
04:54:00 <mr_MoOse> no subsitute of radequate power
04:54:00 <demob> i love motorbikes too
04:54:00 <demob> not on-road tho. offroad is what i liked
04:54:00 <mr_MoOse> 1959 triumph tiger 110
04:54:00 <demob> dirt bikes
04:54:00 <demob> ah sweet. i bet the parts arent cheap for that
04:54:00 <mr_MoOse> the tiger could do either one
04:55:00 <demob> sure
04:55:00 <mr_MoOse> mount the pipes high for off road
04:55:00 <demob> and chunky tires on it
04:55:00 <mr_MoOse> parts not too bad
04:55:00 <mr_MoOse> the tyres we use are semo chunky
04:55:00 <mr_MoOse> semi
04:55:00 <mr_MoOse> good for road riding too,not to slippery off road
04:56:00 <mr_MoOse> easier to get than new HD parts right now
04:56:00 <demob> i can vouch for this company - neve rlet me down https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi.html
04:56:00 <demob> ah right
04:56:00 <demob> are they loud on the road tho?
04:56:00 <mr_MoOse> a little, not too bad
04:57:00 <demob> those thick-tyre mountain bikes look awesome but... they are not easy to ride
04:57:00 <mr_MoOse> the roaqds here are pretty rough so we don't notice much
04:57:00 <demob> i have a bike.. as in bicycle. im impoverished but not complaining so much. i love this bike. its made for downhill mtb the most
04:57:00 <demob> what state are you in mate? im in sa
04:57:00 <mr_MoOse> mainly cow paths with a bit of asphalt on top
04:57:00 <demob> unfortunately
04:58:00 <mr_MoOse> ohio-kentucky border region
04:58:00 <demob> ahh ok! thought you were in oz
04:58:00 <demob> some nice places in ohio
04:58:00 <mr_MoOse> it's not bad
04:58:00 <demob> im more into forests, i think theres a big forest in ohio
04:58:00 <mr_MoOse> gets cold though
04:59:00 <demob> i love camping
04:59:00 <mr_MoOse> southern ohio is half forrest
04:59:00 <demob> i bet hehe. never gets below 0C here where i am, i much would prefer a place where it at least snowed, like tasmania
04:59:00 <mr_MoOse> as is northern kentucky
04:59:00 <demob> niiice. pine forests are my favourite of favourite
05:00:00 <demob> that brian laundry guy wasnt there ppl looking for him in ohio?
05:00:00 <mr_MoOse> these are deciduous
05:00:00 <demob> aha
05:00:00 <mr_MoOse> oaks, walnut, elm, tulip
05:00:00 <demob> niiice
05:00:00 <mr_MoOse> maples, lots of it
05:01:00 <demob> those rea;l old, really big trees in cali look nice. saw some old fotos of lumberjacks cutting down massive trees, was heartbreaking
05:01:00 <mr_MoOse> tulips also called poplars
05:01:00 <mr_MoOse> fire is the enemy for the old trees now
05:02:00 <mr_MoOse> there is a small army base in michigan, used to be a clear cut area
05:03:00 <mr_MoOse> the secondary growth forrest is thick and nice after 80 yrs
05:03:00 <demob> :( Fires suck
05:03:00 <mr_MoOse> they do
05:03:00 <mr_MoOse> they also preserved an area of the original forrest
05:03:00 <mr_MoOse> we were not even allowed to fly over it
05:04:00 <mr_MoOse> the trees there are more than 8 fooot diameter
05:04:00 <demob> they banned drones from flying near fires in aust
05:05:00 <mr_MoOse> they might hinder the fire fighting aircraft i guess
05:05:00 <demob> yeah thats why i think
05:05:00 <demob> there was a plane that crashed in the bushfires we had in australia not loing ago, it was american firefighters
05:06:00 <demob> not sure what happened but their plane went down, they died
05:06:00 <mr_MoOse> i don't see drones much here, too close to the local airport
05:06:00 <mr_MoOse> i used to worry agout hitting power lines, during low helicopter flights
05:07:00 <demob> i saw a few hot air balloons hit power lines
05:07:00 <mr_MoOse> it happens
05:07:00 <demob> i mean, on video
05:07:00 <demob> a lot actually. no way would i go up in one of them
05:08:00 <mr_MoOse> helicopters have two choices in a contested area
05:08:00 <mr_MoOse> realy really high
05:08:00 <mr_MoOse> or low and really fast
05:08:00 <mr_MoOse> other wise holes magically appear in the aircraft
05:08:00 <mr_MoOse> :)
05:09:00 <demob> least u can steer helos tho. even when the engine stops
05:10:00 <mr_MoOse> unless the nail the tail rotor
05:11:00 <mr_MoOse> then the death spin
05:11:00 <demob> i dont know what would happen if the tail rotor stops. i guess it might spin
05:11:00 <demob> yah
05:11:00 <mr_MoOse> wooob woooob wooob wooob kerpow
05:11:00 <demob> but i think you can still steer
05:11:00 <demob> i dont know im not a pilot
05:11:00 <mr_MoOse> not very well
05:11:00 <demob> i would love to take flying lessons tho
05:11:00 <mr_MoOse> sgt moose was just the observer
05:12:00 <mr_MoOse> safer job than it was these days
05:12:00 <mr_MoOse> the new birds have mast mounted sites
05:12:00 <mr_MoOse> stick it up over a hill top
05:13:00 <mr_MoOse> bird not exposed to fire that way
05:14:00 <mr_MoOse> kind of like a submarine periscope
05:15:00 <demob> sgt moose?
05:15:00 <mr_MoOse> retired
05:16:00 <demob> oh you were a sgt?
05:16:00 <mr_MoOse> yes
05:16:00 <demob> did you serve?
05:16:00 <mr_MoOse> 1978-2006

05:19:00 <demob> i shattered my right patella into 9 pieces in the early 00s. had 2 surgeries, its still bad
05:19:00 <mr_MoOse> wish it was bigger but what the hell
05:20:00 <demob> could have been worse
05:20:00 <mr_MoOse> sounds like my biker buddies
05:20:00 <mr_MoOse> we have to avoid deer in the roads here
05:21:00 <mr_MoOse> i had a friend wrecked his old bike on a trip to forida
05:21:00 <mr_MoOse> florida
05:21:00 <mr_MoOse> got a new bike
05:21:00 <mr_MoOse> hit a deer on the way home from the dealer
05:22:00 <mr_MoOse> 1/2 mile from his home
05:22:00 <demob> ouch
05:22:00 <mr_MoOse> just the fairing was damaged
05:22:00 <demob> lucky!

05:23:00 <mr_MoOse> and $1000 USD
05:23:00 <mr_MoOse> poor bastard
05:23:00 <demob> ouch
