00:10:24 <Nothing\> nice, i've got one of those kicking around some place
00:10:41 <Nothing\> one day i'd like to turn it into a musical instrument, but that's a long ways off
00:10:52 <Nothing\> it's about the only use i'd have for it though
00:11:13 <Nothing\> either way, it's a cheap source for a stepper motor
00:30:28 <K> you can throw it at someone

01:02:59 <DHess_US> <Nothing\> this wiki article says an ESD needs 40kv/cm to occur, but if you assume a cloud height of 2,000m or 6,000 feet, that works out to 80 million volts, which seems a tad high
01:03:09 <DHess_US> Breakdown is non-linear because of things like corona discharge.
01:03:52 <DHess_US> So cloud strikes actually break down at lower voltages.

19:21:00 <damian> an untracking number, speshal
19:46:45 <K> hello

19:49:37 <K> but thanks
19:49:45 * T3sl4 passes it along to steve30 then
19:49:57 <T3sl4> :D
19:50:28 <steve30> :p
19:57:28 <Ampera> Ahh, it's a day I do nothing on
19:57:44 <Ampera> time to sleep in for the entirety of it, and then stare at my computer all night thinking of new and interesting ways to die
19:58:16 <K> yay!
19:58:23 <Ampera> at least someone gets it
19:58:25 * T3sl4 puts Ampera into a VR Doom session
19:59:09 <Ampera> Aw man, 30 bucks?
19:59:12 <Ampera> I can't afford 30 bucks
20:03:08 <T3sl4> mmm, sandwich with horseradish sauce
20:03:49 * Ampera prefers horse relish
20:03:57 <Ampera> aom
20:03:58 <T3sl4> mmm
20:04:02 <Ampera> ain't no stock like horse stock

20:30:02 * steve30 gets more coffee
20:31:55 <K> steve30, also known as the squirrel from over the hedge
21:07:41 * Halcyon licks Ampera
21:07:46 <Halcyon> Aww I missed him :(
21:08:19 * Halcyon licks steve30 instead
21:12:49 <steve30> tasty?
21:14:43 <Halcyon> Yup :)
21:14:48 <Halcyon> Sweet, yet savoury
21:15:09 <T3sl4> yet slightly bitter with hints of caffeine ;)
21:20:51 <Halcyon> Nom :)
21:28:01 * T3sl4 yawns
21:28:10 <T3sl4> doing inventory is boring
21:28:30 <Halcyon> Meh, sometimes mind-numbing work is fine
21:28:40 <T3sl4> but i want to finally do it, so i can buy things as needed without having to check each time
21:28:42 <Halcyon> Some weeks I just feel drained and feel like being a burger flipper
21:28:56 * steve30 fires the coffee hose at T3sl4
21:29:02 <T3sl4> \o/
21:29:15 <Halcyon> Black coffee for me thanks
21:29:19 <Halcyon> No sugar
21:29:41 <K> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNs0i5fmqTQ
21:29:52 <T3sl4> on that note, i had two coffees yesterday while sorting resistor packs, which didn't quite make the process difficult ;)
21:30:31 <Halcyon> Is this you own gear you're sorting?
21:30:40 <T3sl4> K: a little amazing that made it on TV
21:30:51 <T3sl4> yes, my stuff
21:30:51 <K> it is marvelous
21:31:11 <Halcyon> Hahah
21:31:12 <T3sl4> just a few drawers of mostly baggies of SMTs
21:31:20 <Halcyon> Are you labelling and/or barcoding too?
21:31:22 <Halcyon> I love labels
21:31:33 <T3sl4> up to about 400 items so far
21:31:42 <T3sl4> barcode would be cool but nah
21:31:43 <Halcyon> I bought a proper thermal label printer
21:31:54 <T3sl4> the baggies are mostly from distributors, so still have MFG/PN on them
21:32:40 <K> Halcyon, which make/model?
21:33:02 <Halcyon> Dymo Labelwriter 4XL
21:33:10 <Halcyon> It's not quite industrial grade but it's brilliant
21:33:34 <Halcyon> I like it mainly because I can buy just about any sized label and the rolls are easy to swap out
21:33:45 <steve30> If I make labels I prefer to use a typewriter and type onto plain labels
21:33:59 <Halcyon> I wish I had a type writer
21:33:59 <steve30> Thermal labels never really appeal to me
21:34:34 <Halcyon> I would normally agree with you Steve, but I can automate tasks like set up number series and tell it to print x number of labels with sequential numbers
21:34:50 <Halcyon> It also does graphics and barcodes
21:35:46 <Halcyon> (Which you'll see on Ashens' channel if he ever does a video on my box)
21:36:54 <steve30> Yeah, that's not useful to me personally
21:37:04 <K> I was looking at those portable ones
21:37:07 <Halcyon> Fair enough
21:37:30 <K> but not conviced, as cartidges are more expensive

23:02:03 <T3sl4> hah
