19:41:08 <Halcyon> Hey Ampera
19:41:12 <Ampera> hi Halcyon
19:41:21 <Ampera> how do
19:41:27 <Halcyon> Not too bad, you ?
19:41:43 <Ampera> uh
19:41:53 <Ampera> however the status of thinking about being dead is
19:42:16 <Halcyon> ?
19:42:30 <Ampera> uh
19:42:36 <Ampera> me no like breathing?
19:42:45 <Halcyon> So normal day then?
19:42:52 <Ampera> eh
19:42:54 <Ampera> particularly sad today
19:43:09 <Halcyon> *cuddles*
19:43:13 <Ampera> :/
19:43:44 <Ampera> I think I'll go use my imagination a bit.
20:04:33 <Ampera> alright I've had enough of thinking of myself being hurt and killed for now
20:11:45 <rust_collector> some times, I think of good ways to hurt people. I think my favourite is to fry their feet. I have no idea if it is good or not, but... oh well
20:13:06 <K> like on a grill?
20:13:23 <rust_collector> like, in a deef fryer, like you do with fries
20:13:25 <Ampera> you and I think alike more than we might think
20:13:52 <rust_collector> oh crap, maybe we are both normal
20:13:55 <Ampera> most of the time when I think about dying I think about burning to death, among other painful means.
20:13:59 <Ampera> OH FUCK
20:14:02 <Ampera> NOT NORMAL
20:14:09 <Ampera> NORMIES GET OUT REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
20:14:10 <rust_collector> there you go
20:14:13 <K> HOWDY NORMIE?!!?!!
20:14:20 <K> (FELLOW)
20:14:23 <Ampera> OH FUCK OH SHIT
20:14:28 <Ampera> GET AWAY YOU HEATHEN
20:14:46 <rust_collector> ok, I have to go pick up some stuff
20:15:11 <K> BEEN NORMIN' STRAIGHT LATELY, YEA?
20:15:44 <rust_collector> I do wonder if burning might not be as bad as it seems...
20:16:04 <rust_collector> getting burnt, and surviving would suck
20:16:28 <Ampera> must ensure you don't survive
20:17:46 <rust_collector> I do know a guy that was near a transformer, up a pole, that exploded. he spent 4 years in hospital. Otoh, he does ok now. I dunno
20:18:35 <K> 4 years
20:19:04 <rust_collector> heh, he looks like he has zippers all over, where the stitches were
20:20:16 <rust_collector> I guess 4 years is what you get for working for the local maf... power company
20:21:42 <rust_collector> mmh. I really have to go pick up some stuff now. i got a set of 4 snow tires, used for a month, if I pick them up

20:49:54 <Halcyon> Hey Amps
20:49:59 <Halcyon> Sorry, was preparing dinner
20:50:50 <steve30> hi Halcyon
20:56:48 * DogWomble peers in
20:57:33 * steve30 wonders what's for dinner
20:57:45 <DogWomble> i believe food is for dinner :)
20:57:52 <Halcyon> I made pizza
20:58:48 <steve30> Halcyon, I spent the day with fetish guy yesterday
20:58:58 * steve30 looks innocent
20:59:03 <Halcyon> :P
20:59:07 <Halcyon> How's your butt today?
20:59:22 <Halcyon> And nipples etc..
20:59:33 <steve30> a tad sore/fragile
20:59:58 <Halcyon> I'm still waiting for those photos :P
21:01:45 <steve30> we took one yesterday which i think you'd like
21:02:16 <Halcyon> Mmmmm...
21:04:22 <steve30> No cumshot this week unfortunately. My anorgasmia kicked in :/.

21:53:37 <Guest|80257> I'm in Germany trying to locate the solder Dave uses. The closest I could find is this ( https://de.farnell.com/multicore-loctite/d626-250g-reel/l-tdraht-60-40-0-46mm-250g/dp/419308 ) but it does not seem to show all of the same information. Is this solder sufficient for SMD soldering?
21:56:48 <steve30> yes
21:56:57 <steve30> I've used similar for SMD soldering
22:00:17 * steve30 needs coffee
22:02:52 <Guest|80257> Thanks!
22:03:38 <steve30> I think the main issue for SMD soldering is the size of the solder. It needs to be thin.
22:08:02 <Guest|80257> yeah, that is why I need to buy more. All I have is .8mm and bigger. Would you recommend something else? I don't need a lot. It is just for DIY eurorack kits.
22:09:17 <steve30> The one you linked should be fine. Personally I rather like Rosin-cored 60/40, although some people prefer lead-free nowadays.
22:10:25 <Guest|80257> Is the one is listed lead free? I do not want lead free.
22:11:18 <K> i have a spool of loctite Crystal 400, 0.38mm, works fine
22:12:49 <K> i think i got it from farnell
22:14:47 <Guest|80257> Will check it out.
22:15:10 <Guest|80257> I have to go, but thank you all for the information. I truly appreciate the help!

22:34:01 <Ampera> Halcyon, you still around?
22:36:32 <K> maybe he is normal.
22:37:32 <Ampera> how do K
22:37:52 <K> you can never know
22:38:19 <K> wakes up one morning, and boom, normal as fuck.
22:38:19 <Ampera> I may never know, or I can never know?
22:38:35 <Ampera> I wish I was normal.
22:38:43 <K> yeah.
22:38:50 <Ampera> I have a double whammy right now, splitting headache, and nausea.
22:39:13 <Ampera> it's legit morning sickness, I might be pregnant
22:39:35 <K> craving pickles?
22:40:01 <Ampera> some sweet gherkins might not be too bad right now, but I don't feel like eating due to the aforementioned headache and nausea
22:40:29 <Ampera> I am using the best non-medicinal cure I am aware of, and listening to King Crimson
22:40:41 <Ampera> which tends to soothe my head and almost put me to sleep
22:41:05 <K> which album?
22:41:36 <K> "in the court of" is my favourite i think
22:41:37 <Ampera> I only have two songs in my collection right now, currently listening to In The Wake of Poseidon.
22:41:59 <Ampera> however King Crimson is actually one of two groups I own an album from, though mine is an "official bootleg"
22:42:15 <Ampera> only other group I own an album for is The Four Seasons
22:42:53 <Ampera> I'd love to own some ELO albums, on record or cartridge, but I have better things to spend the money I don't have on.
22:43:16 <Ampera> Now I'm listening to Starless.
22:53:28 <K> if you like progrock in general, look up band "Yezda Urfa"
23:03:24 <coppice> Interesting. I'd never heard of them. They must have been really obscure at the time, although communication was much less free in those days, and we had to get quite a range of things as imports from the US
23:04:08 <K> yeah, i do not recall how i stumbled upon them
23:04:40 <K> otoh it might not be for Ampera, not very soothing and such
23:05:52 <coppice> prog rock didn't seem to develop as much in the US as in the UK, although British prog rock bands made a lot of their money in the US
23:59:27 * T3sl4 rushes coppice's stage
