03:47:06 <Ampera> Halcyon, incoming casualties
03:47:10 <Ampera> well a casualty
03:47:14 <Ampera> of jspiros' wrath
03:47:37 Join: Nothing\ ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
03:47:41 <Nothing\> ah here we are
03:47:50 <Ampera> >:( no secrets revealed
03:47:52 <Nothing\> my new (hopefully less unpleasant) home
03:48:12 <Ampera> Welcome anyways.
03:48:21 <Nothing\> thank you
03:48:37 <Nothing\> yeah i've gotta say i've already got a nice vibe coming from this place
03:48:47 <Nothing\> or maybe i just have to pee
03:49:07 <Ampera> mmm, pee
03:51:42 <Ampera> EEVBlog time
03:51:42 <EEVBlog> Ah shoot, Doc! We've ended up at 03:57 Sydney time.
03:52:28 <Nothing\> heh i got universal ph indicator strips so i've been going nuts testing veerything i can think of
03:53:01 <Nothing\> these things were damn cheap, too, only about 80 cents for a pack of 80 strips, where walmart has them for $10 for a pack of 50
03:53:21 <Ampera> I have some of those laying around from science kits and such
03:53:22 <Nothing\> though i found a digital PH meter for $5 so i might just pick one of those up
03:53:48 <Nothing\> they're really neat but i'm partially colorblind so i can never tell exactly what it says with some of the colors
03:54:44 <Nothing\> i got litmus paper locally but i didn't realize litmus only works for phs of around 8-11 or something like that
03:55:19 * Ampera throws a purple cabbage at Nothing\
03:56:07 <Nothing\> lol Ampera
03:56:24 <Nothing\> actually that video i just showed you with the pomegranate juice, that reaction works the exact same way as red cabbage
03:57:01 <Nothing\> pomegranate jucie has anthyocyanins in it just like red cabbage so it chanegs colors with PH
03:58:08 <Nothing\> hrm i feel like doing something, but i don't for the life of me know what
03:58:24 <Ampera> Nothing\, oh and the bot monitors Dave's twitter
03:58:30 <Ampera> so if you like EEVBlog, you get updates in this channel
03:58:32 <Nothing\> actually i heard that cat5 cables are agreat source of breadboard jumpers, maybe i'll cut one up and make some jumpers
03:59:12 <Nothing\> nice, yeah i haven't watched his channel since the move to the new lab but i'd love ot get back into it once all the flooding and everything's dealt with
03:59:29 <Ampera> If you want to check the status, just do EEVBlog Status
03:59:29 <EEVBlog> If you keep saying that, I'm gonna hold you upside down and shake you until all the electrons fall out, Ampera!
03:59:40 <Ampera> he doesn't like it if you say heck
03:59:45 <Nothing\> lol just like dave
03:59:51 <Ampera> EEVBlog Status
03:59:51 <EEVBlog> EEVBlog's Latest Tweet: RT @ehtelescope: Scientists have obtained the first image of a black hole, using Event Horizon Telescope observations of the center of the…
04:00:02 <Nothing\> hello EEVBlog are you a soccer?
04:00:12 <Nothing\> apparently so
04:00:17 <Nothing\> :(
04:00:22 <Ampera> EEVBlog, fuck you
04:00:23 <EEVBlog> You can get that over fibre now?
04:00:49 <Nothing\> EEVBlog, -7.23523051231382020032505
04:01:10 <Nothing\> it's fun to give bots variable types it's not expecting
04:01:11 <Ampera> He doesn't do anything clever like that
04:01:13 <Ampera> whatever that is
04:01:25 <Ampera> You gave it a string
04:01:38 <Ampera> it's all strings, it just monitors for when its name is called and then sees if the string includes something
04:01:39 <Nothing\> well i once crashed a weather bot by using a float instead of an integer for the zip code
04:01:46 <Ampera> lol
04:01:52 <Ampera> Sadly he doesn't do weather, but he does do time
04:01:54 <Ampera> EEVBlog time
04:01:54 <EEVBlog> Ah shoot, Doc! We've ended up at 04:07 Sydney time.
04:02:10 <Nothing\> you need provisions for other time zones
04:02:30 <Ampera> The point is to see what time it is for Dave, not for yourself.
04:02:36 <Ampera> I'm fairly sure people own a clock, and google is right there.
04:02:45 <Ampera> This is just a simple and fun way to get Sydney's time, where Dave works.
04:02:46 <Nothing\> heh
04:03:27 <Nothing\> i made this little lcd module with an arduino, as a proof of concept i just uploaded an example that displays the tim since the last reset, and surprisingly enough the little thing wound up being more useful tha any projenct i'd made
04:03:40 <Ampera> need to shave real quick, brb
04:03:43 <Nothing\> i use it to tiem how long i sleep, or how long since my last meds
04:03:47 <Nothing\> alright man, enjoy
04:05:39 <Nothing\> hrm i dunno about using cat5 cables for breadboard jumpers, these wires seem awfully thin
04:08:53 <DHess_US> You can get away with a lot if you properly separate common and ground.
04:09:31 <Nothing\> how do you mean?
04:10:09 <Nothing\> you know, i've actually heard that you can get speeds on a breadboard up to 100mhz if you put a metal sheet on as a backplane, that's crazy
04:10:47 <Nothing\> ugh this is impossible with just diagonal cutters, i need a scalpel
04:11:38 <Nothing\> yeah i think these wires are waaaay too thin to be used in a breadboard, the leads on my resistors are thicker
04:12:19 <Nothing\> at least now i've got a good source for high gauge, solid core wire
04:12:31 <DHess_US> You mean solderless breadboard? The parasitis are awfully high.
04:12:59 <DHess_US> I just buy spools of tinned copper wire in different gauges. 24, 22, 20, 18, 16
04:13:10 <Nothing\> yeah i've heard the capacitive coupling is awful at high frequencies, but i only ever use low frequency, up to audio at most
04:13:33 <DHess_US> solderless breadboard works fine for that unless you need low leakage.
04:13:37 <DHess_US> Or more than an amp.
04:13:50 <DHess_US> The nylon they use is awfully leaky.
04:14:01 <Nothing\> DHess_US: would you mind sharing your source? i've been trying to find a spool of wire on aliexpress for it but the best i could find was 30awg, which is just piss poor for breadboard jumpers, i figure 23awg would be ideal, whatever's closest to 6mm
04:14:25 <Nothing\> huh i didn't know leakage was an issue with breadboards
04:14:27 Join: Nurbog ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
04:15:18 <DHess_US> Oh, last time I bought tinned copper was from Mouser I think.
04:15:55 <DHess_US> I even have a photo of where I used it and the spool right here.
04:17:09 <DHess_US> https://i.ibb.co/Q6gNCPW/Capacitors.jpg
04:17:32 <Nothing\> ah i'd like to try some other places some time, since i took up electronics last october i went from primarily buying my parts on.. *shudders" amazon, but they're overpriced, $4.50 for a single op amp, $20 for 100 jellybean tranistors,
04:17:33 <DHess_US> 18 gauge and I had 16 and 20 but I wanted something larger than 20 and 16 wouldn't fit in the PC board holes.
04:17:36 <Nothing\> heh nice, DHess_US
04:18:06 <Nothing\> i buy primarily from aliexpress now, cuz you can't go wrong paying say 80 cents for 10 ap amps
04:18:08 <DHess_US> That is how it was originally designed. The two wires to each lead of the input capacitor remove excess lead ESR.
04:19:09 <DHess_US> I maybe should have used higher voltage parts to make them physically larger but it worked great anyway.
04:19:29 <DHess_US> I should have the purchase order for it somewhere.
04:19:53 <Nothing\> mmm meds are kicking in so i think i'll veg out and watch whatever episodes of the first 10 seasons of the simpsons i haven't seen yet
04:20:08 <Nothing\> lol when i was little i used to think the simpsons were non-human creatures
04:20:19 <Nothing\> and thet simpson referred to the species of whatever they were
04:21:47 <Ampera> I see friends have been made already
04:22:29 <Nothing\> what the hell, these wires are stranded, not solid core
04:22:37 <Nothing\> what the hell kind of cat5 cable uses stranded wires?
04:23:31 <Nothing\> yeah these are just terrible for use with a breadboard, so much for that idea
04:24:57 <Nothing\> ooooh i know what i can do
04:25:01 <DHess_US> I always use stranded for CAT5. They just use a different connector.
04:25:06 <Nothing\> i'll make a micro version of a 555 timer
04:25:14 <DHess_US> The advantage is they are more flexible.
04:25:30 Join: Bluenote ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
04:25:35 <Nothing\> yeah i can see that, i was just under the impression they were all solid core
04:27:07 <Nothing\> heh for my macro version of the internals of a 555, i was thinking i ould use another 555 as the flip flop lol
04:30:28 <DHess_US> Huh, Digi-Key deleted my account.
04:34:32 Quit: Nurbog ([email protected]) Quit: My iMac has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…
06:04:23 <Nothing\> i think i'll finally tear down this vcr/dvd player hat's been sitting here for ages
06:05:04 <Nothing\> it ate the last tape my mom put into it and even though i've never even been inside a vcr before, i've watched enough youtube videos to think i know what i'm doing
06:05:35 <Nothing\> so hopefully i can fix it rather than having to resort to tearing it downoutright
07:03:45 <T3sl4> DHess_US, weird

08:48:53 <Halcyon> Morning all
08:57:34 * Halcyon prods Ampera
09:04:30 * T3sl4 prods Halcyon
09:04:37 <Halcyon> ;-)
09:04:38 <T3sl4> with a cattle prod
09:04:44 * Halcyon sips his first coffee for the day

09:22:59 * Ampera prods Halcyon
09:23:16 <Halcyon> :)
09:23:20 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: I had to check Aliexpress of course: https://t.co/fJR5n6w3r2 #NSFW https://t.co/UTpe6qVjS8
09:23:33 <Halcyon> I'm laughing at this flat earther video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XONAgf9Eg9U
09:23:58 <DHess_US> Launch scrubbed. :(
09:24:04 <Halcyon> This guy owns them so hard
09:24:41 <Ampera> I don't need to waste 45 minutes of my time to listen to a gay guy tell me how the earth is actually round
09:24:53 <Ampera> if it's round then why do I hate myself?
09:24:58 <Ampera> check mate atheists
09:25:04 <DHess_US> Looks flat to me.
09:25:29 <Halcyon> I know, it's just so amusing to hear the flat earthers speak
09:25:44 <Halcyon> It's so amusing
09:25:49 <DHess_US> If the Earth were curved, wouldn't our feet be curved also?
09:26:24 <Ampera> DHess_US, our feet are curved
09:26:35 <Ampera> unless those are two bricks you're hiding underneath your shitty ass shoes
09:26:35 <Halcyon> What I don't understand is, take all the physics, astronomy, geology... science away
09:26:58 <Halcyon> What they can't explain is if you sail from one "edge" to the other, how is it you come to be back at the location you started
09:27:43 <DHess_US> You actually sailed in a circle.
09:27:46 <Ampera> The earth is circular
09:28:02 <Halcyon> But what if you don't sail in a circle
09:28:07 <Halcyon> What if you sail in a line?
09:28:12 <DHess_US> You did because your compass kept turning.
09:28:20 <Ampera> It might appear you are sailing in a line, but you're sailing in a circle.
09:28:41 <Halcyon> Yes, my point is, it doesn't work on their imaginary flat earth model
09:28:52 <DHess_US> It does if you add enough corrections.
09:28:58 <DHess_US> Epycycles!
09:29:07 <Halcyon> \o/
09:29:36 <Ampera> Halcyon, I see you don't understand the key philosophical concepts behind things like flat earth and last thursdayism
09:31:03 * Ampera gives Halcyon a Ticket to the Moon
09:31:44 <Ampera> ooo, it's available on a 12 inch single
09:32:13 <Ampera> the temptation to waste money on records I'll play once, maybe twice, and then never again is immense
09:32:42 <Halcyon> I only understand things that are real :)
09:32:52 <Halcyon> I was never really a creative kid
09:32:58 <Halcyon> I couldn't just make up bullshit
09:33:01 <Ampera> Halcyon, trust me you're not as bad as jspiros
09:33:13 <Halcyon> Shit, I should hope not!
09:33:14 <Ampera> His inability to deal with the abstract is why Nothing\ got banned.
09:33:23 <Ampera> well, peripherally.
09:33:25 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: RT @AngryManTV: Lined up, ready for donors. https://t.co/CqQmNI1vWX
09:33:25 <Halcyon> What did Nothing\ do ?
09:33:41 <Ampera> be "passive aggressive" to jspiros, and "act in bad faith"
09:34:07 <Ampera> in other words jspiros got upset that people told him that he had a problem with other people's perspectives, and decided to take it out on an innocent bystander
09:34:13 <Ampera> well
09:34:14 <Ampera> sort of innocent
09:34:40 <Halcyon> Yeh I've been on the receiving end of that before. I basically got told that I had to respect his "status" as an op and if I didn't, I'd get banned
09:34:50 <Halcyon> So *shrug*
09:34:51 <Ampera> Ot
09:35:01 <Ampera> It's strange, he gives way more leeway to some than others.
09:35:14 <Halcyon> Oh it was in response to something, I forget what now, but I basically disagreed with him
09:35:21 <Halcyon> So he turned it into me being "argumentative"
09:35:36 <Ampera> Like MatCat, he basically was a huge cunt to the entire channel and harassed everyone, to which jspiros received several complaints, and he did nothing
09:35:47 <Ampera> but Nothing\ gets a bit annoyed with him and that's a permaban
09:35:58 <Ampera> I even called jspiros a fat cunt straight to his face
09:36:03 <Ampera> and he didn't even really care
09:36:08 <Halcyon> *shrug* That's alright, if he wants to run his channel like that, more power to him
09:37:03 <Halcyon> He didn't like me because I called him out on his bullshit and hypocrisy.
09:37:23 <Halcyon> Occasionally I'd break him and he'd get angry, mostly he just stormed off to pout.
09:38:36 <DHess_US> https://www.movaglobes.com/flatearth/
09:39:48 <Halcyon> Their page doesn't appear to be loading for me
09:40:02 <Halcyon> Wait, there it goes
09:40:19 <Ampera> I'm gonna ask some people again if they want to come over to this channel, see what I get.
09:40:36 <Halcyon> *shrug* You can if you want. I think most people know it's here
09:40:51 <Halcyon> I didn't push too hard because I didn't want to step on jspiro's toes
09:40:53 <Nothing\> he didn't like the way i told him to look at himself before he judged others
09:40:54 <Halcyon> It's not my place
09:41:07 <Halcyon> Nothing\ - Fair enough I'd say
09:41:07 <Nothing\> certainly not
09:41:15 <Halcyon> If I was being a jerk, I'd expect someone to say that to me
09:41:29 <Ampera> I'm there because I like the channel. If he's gonna start being an asshole by banning people for no reason, I'm gonna start pulling shit
09:41:56 <Nothing\> same here, and i know i said some things to him that woulda pissed me off if i were on the receiving end but i woudn't have acted that severely
09:42:07 <Nothing\> he just has it out for me because he thinks i talk too much
09:42:14 <Nothing\> imagine that, talking in a chat room
09:42:22 <Halcyon> Aww damn, April fools :P
09:42:28 <Halcyon> It's a shame you can't really order one
09:42:30 <DHess_US> Tell them we have cake.
09:42:54 <DHess_US> Halcyon, you're the second person today who said that to me.
09:43:09 <Halcyon> Nothing\ that's just not on :P How dare you talk in a chat room
09:43:10 <Nothing\> yeah that channel was great, i really enjoyed the people there and they rarely if ever bickered about trivial things, unless matcat was around
09:43:36 <Halcyon> He had a go at me once for taking up 5 lines copying and pasting something (relevant to a conversation) and threatened to ban me if I did it again
09:43:41 <Ampera> I like Nothing\, he's a cool person.
09:43:45 <Halcyon> Then, he goes and does the exact same thing
09:44:02 <Halcyon> I was so tempted to call him out on it, but I bit my tongue :P
09:44:08 <Ampera> you should have
09:44:11 <Nothing\> but then jspiros started holding a grudge against me for no apparent reason other than because i talk too much and because i ignored matcat which made matcat respond to things i said which weren't even said to him btw, and somehow that was my fault according to jspiros
09:44:28 <Nothing\> i don't mean to rant or anything but this stuff's been pent up in me for a while now
09:44:33 <Halcyon> *shrug* there are jerks in every crowd
09:44:36 <Ampera> I think he just likes and dislikes people, and will use his powers accordingly.
09:44:38 <Halcyon> For us it's Ampera :P
09:44:40 <Ampera> he sees the channel as /his/ now.
09:44:41 <Nothing\> i'm grateful for you guys to let me get this stuff off my chest
09:44:47 * Ampera jerks Halcyon's meat
09:44:54 <Halcyon> Nothing\, rant away
09:45:08 <Halcyon> You only get banned in here if you're a troll
09:45:12 <Nothing\> Halcyon: i appreciate it, i don't normally rant in such a way
09:45:28 <Nothing\> he definitely does seem to play favorites though
09:45:38 <Ampera> Halcyon, that's not true?
09:45:40 <Halcyon> I just think he's a bit immature
09:45:42 <Ampera> if so then why am I still here
09:45:45 <Nothing\> i've seen it before a million times on other channels
09:45:54 <Halcyon> Because you aren't a troll. Also because you have ops :P
09:46:14 <Ampera> I like jspiros as a friend, but as an op, he's awful.
09:46:21 <Ampera> His job is to regulate the channel, not dominate it.
09:47:08 <Halcyon> Some people just can't handle the tiniest amount of control, whether it be of an organisation or something as miniscule as an internet chat room. We have a Senior Sergeant at work who is a good guy, but is such an incompetent manager.
09:47:13 <Nothing\> i thought he was a nice guy and genuinely enjoyed talking to hi before he started harping on me every chance he got under some stupid pretense
09:47:30 <Nothing\> and he calls me passive aggressive
09:47:56 <Halcyon> Nothing\, I've noticed he tends to reflect his own traits and downfalls onto others
09:48:33 <Nothing\> yup i have too
09:48:50 <Nothing\> he's very hypocritical
09:49:05 <Halcyon> When he called me out for being "disrespectful to ops" and basically commanded me to respect him or leave, he didn't like it when I said people had to earn my respect, it wasn't automatic and that he was going entirely the wrong away about it
09:49:31 <Ampera> aw man I have to earn your respect now, Halcyon?
09:49:32 <Ampera> shit's gay
09:49:38 <Halcyon> Nah, you don't
09:49:42 <Halcyon> I respected you a long time ago
09:49:59 <Ampera> I'm not sure if I should thank you or call the police.
09:50:05 <Nothing\> honestly though, he did me a favor by banning me because it just means i'll never have to deal with him again
09:50:09 <Halcyon> I am the Police :P
09:50:21 * Ampera calls Halcyon
09:50:32 <Halcyon> I have a uniform... somewhere stuffed in the closet
09:50:33 <Ampera> hello rozzers, I'd like to report someone being too nice to me :P
09:51:15 <Halcyon> Nothing\, I'm sort of glad he didn't join us in here. It's less drama.
09:51:42 <Nothing\> you and me both
09:51:45 <Halcyon> Out of courtesy though, I offered him operator rights in here too, he declined
09:51:55 <Halcyon> Because hey, I'm a nice guy, that's what I do
09:52:38 <Halcyon> I'm a strong believer that there needs to be a balanced view, it can't just be about what Kim Jong Spiros says
09:53:08 <Halcyon> Anyway, I'm thinking about making chocolate brownies today....
09:55:20 <Nothing\> it's funny cuz i just left another server that used to have somebody in there exactly like jspiros
09:55:24 <Nothing\> well almost exactly
09:55:30 <Halcyon> IRC is full of them
09:55:37 <Halcyon> I remember back in the 1990's, it was MUCH worse
09:56:19 <Nothing\> except he was a hick from west virginia addicted to painkillers and got high on over the counter cough syrup 5 times a week, among other things i,m
09:56:30 <Halcyon> Really?
09:56:38 <Nothing\> yeah he was really messed up
09:56:53 <Halcyon> I suppose that explains quite a bit
09:59:13 <Halcyon> Oh yay, my credit score is in the top band
09:59:46 * Ampera runs over Halcyon with a marching band
10:01:19 <Halcyon> You are so mean
10:03:18 <Ampera> and you're a clown
10:03:46 <Halcyon> *shrug*
10:04:02 <Ampera> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4OhbzSFpnk
10:04:22 <Halcyon> Riiiiiiight
10:04:35 <Ampera> This is what the cool kids on the internet are laughing about now.
10:04:43 <Halcyon> It's stupid
10:08:43 <Halcyon> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CI4pZofq7DI
10:09:06 <Ampera> Now that's what I call stupid
10:09:18 <Halcyon> It
10:09:22 <Halcyon> s animals :)
10:09:52 <Ampera> stupidest fucking song
10:09:59 <Halcyon> Oh yeh it's a shit song
10:10:06 <Ampera> you're a shit song
10:11:22 <Halcyon> This guy looks like David 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFbkUAgxK4Q
10:11:41 <Ampera> looks more like a coon than a person
10:11:47 <Halcyon> Heh
10:11:58 <Halcyon> Coon has a different meaning here
10:12:10 <Ampera> and what is that
10:12:26 <Halcyon> https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=coon
10:12:32 <Ampera> no it means that here too
10:12:34 <Halcyon> It's basically "Nigger" in Australia
10:12:41 <Halcyon> Usually when talking about aboriginals
10:17:34 <Halcyon> I should go shopping for dinner bits
11:21:02 <Halcyon> Ahh crap I forgot to buy dijon mustard
11:29:48 <coppice> Halcyon: its not specifically Australian
11:32:04 <T3sl4> does it cancel out if you call someone a "coont"?
11:36:34 <Halcyon> Yeh so I've found out
11:36:58 <Halcyon> It's also unfortunate we have a very popular brand of cheese called "Coon"
11:37:06 <T3sl4> Ah, so equivalent to using the soft-R "Nigga"~~
11:37:09 <Halcyon> http://www.coon.com.au
11:39:29 <coppice> Halcyon: when I was a kid the bakeries in the UK sold "coon cakes"
11:40:55 <Halcyon> What were they
11:41:36 <coppice> small chocolate sponge cakes, with a thick layer of sticky chocolate icing on the top
11:42:39 <Halcyon> Hm
11:42:45 <Halcyon> They sound delicious
13:11:36 * Ampera twiddles Halcyon's knob
13:16:18 <Halcyon> Hah
13:16:36 <Halcyon> I think you've been hanging out here too long Ampera, you never used to be this dirty :P
13:24:12 <Ampera> No I have, I just usually reserved myself more.
13:24:19 <Ampera> You should see the pinned messages in my Discord server
13:24:24 * Ampera throws a guitar amp at T3sl4
13:24:36 * T3sl4 feels all amped up
13:25:19 <Ampera> I'm gonna try to learn how to do the strum thing
13:25:44 <T3sl4> become a strumlord?
13:28:44 <Ampera> a strum hero
13:34:47 * T3sl4 flails at Ampera, Thereminingly
13:35:47 <Ampera> I do actually have a theremin
13:35:56 <T3sl4> oh?
13:36:13 <Ampera> mhm, it's in the other room, works too
13:37:53 <T3sl4> hard to play? :P
13:39:05 <Ampera> It's like whistling with your fingers.
13:39:18 <T3sl4> yes

15:32:56 <Halcyon> I don't have a landline :P
15:33:16 <Halcyon> I'm just fiddling with IPv6
15:37:32 <Halcyon> I can't seem to get any IPv6 traffic through, but I can resolve IPv6 addresses

16:14:54 * Ampera ~'s Halcyon
16:15:02 <Halcyon> I can't work this shit out
16:15:03 <Halcyon> :(
16:15:20 <Ampera> have you tried push up
16:15:26 <Halcyon> ?
16:15:31 <Ampera> you want to work out
16:15:33 <Ampera> push up
16:15:45 <Halcyon> Very funny
16:15:55 <Halcyon> I can't get IPv6 traffic to pass from LAN to WAN
16:16:05 <Halcyon> I can resolve addresses just fine but everything else fails
16:16:12 <Halcyon> I can ping internal IPv6 addresses
16:16:29 <Ampera> I need to learn how to IPv6 one of these days
16:16:58 <Halcyon> This is the first time I've seriously sat down and tried to get my head around it. It all looked too hard before.
16:17:23 <Halcyon> What shits me is they've changed the terminology of things that have existed forever. For example "Subnet mask" is now "Prefix" WTF
16:18:01 <Halcyon> What makes it more stupid is you put the "prefix" at the end of the address as per usual slash notation
16:23:06 * Ampera popcorns Halcyon
16:24:56 <Halcyon> Are you offering me popcorn or are you pointing a hot air gun at me?
16:25:03 <Ampera> offering
16:25:09 <Halcyon> \o/
16:25:15 <Halcyon> Mmm salty

20:00:50 <Halcyon> Holy shit, whoever thought of this IPv6 concept fucking sucks
20:01:15 <Halcyon> It is honestly kicking my ass and I can't work out why shit isn't routing
20:06:22 <K> hello
20:06:30 <Halcyon> Howdy K
20:06:53 <Halcyon> Oh I see they finally got Assange
20:08:47 <K> huh
20:09:10 <Halcyon> He was arrested after he was booted from the Eqcuadorean embassy
20:09:50 <Lartza> Well not booted, he was arrested inside
20:10:18 <Lartza> But surely now nothing happens since there is no rape charge right :,)
20:10:30 <Halcyon> Wasn't he being kicked out of the embassy? They'd have enough of his nonsense
20:10:39 <Lartza> They cancelled asylum and invited the police in
20:10:48 <Halcyon> I guess that's one way to do it :)
20:10:50 <Lartza> It's nitpicking but :P
20:11:38 <Lartza> Also yet another brexit extension it seems
20:11:44 <Lartza> Oh UK
20:11:59 <Halcyon> Oh dear

21:22:38 <steve30> hi
21:22:54 <Halcyon> Heya :)
21:25:04 <steve30> i had plenty of sleep :)
21:25:08 <Halcyon> YAY!
21:25:58 <Halcyon> I've been banging my head against the wall most of the day trying to work out IPv6 on my network
21:27:24 <Lartza> I stayed up way too late waiting for Falcon Heavy and then slept until noon >.>
21:27:30 <Lartza> But luckily nothing to do today
21:28:52 <steve30> I've never really used IPv6
21:29:18 <Lartza> I never really got 6rd working well so ipv4 yaaaay.......
21:29:26 <Lartza> Even when it worked it was sluggish
21:30:11 <Halcyon> My ISP supports it on the WAN side so I figured I might as well bite the bullet and learn it
21:30:56 <Halcyon> It's very very different
21:31:48 <Lartza> Yeah new terms and stuff
21:32:04 <Halcyon> Not just that but every NIC has 2 addresses
21:32:05 * steve30 coffees
21:32:14 <Halcyon> I got all that working but routing it all broken
21:34:50 * steve30 cuddles up to Halcyon

22:17:05 <Halcyon> Nobody breathe so it doesn't change :P
22:21:33 <steve30> nice
22:23:25 <steve30> I've put a fish cake in the oven
22:25:29 <Halcyon> Your house will smell fishy :)
