19:28:57 <Halcyon> Steve
19:30:08 <Halcyon> I'm making these for dinner: www.taste.com.au/recipes/cheesy-bacon-zucchini-fritters/rzsovbc0
19:31:08 <damian> can yo ubring me some please
19:31:12 <damian> they look delicious
19:31:15 <damian> at least show us when you're done
19:31:22 <Halcyon> I can do that :)
19:31:26 <Halcyon> (Show you that is)
19:32:38 <damian> damnit
19:35:07 <Halcyon> I'm adding chilli though, everything needs a bit of spank
19:35:40 <Halcyon> Fucking NBN
19:39:17 <damian> i disagree
19:40:16 <Halcyon> Hey damian, do you know if regular data cablers are allowed to work on copper lines outside the premises?
19:40:27 <Halcyon> Or does it have to be someone contracted to NBN Co. ?
19:40:59 <damian> as far as i know it has to be NBN unless you're doing a dodgy
19:41:09 <Halcyon> I'm so sick of it
19:41:15 <Halcyon> I am tempted to replace the copper myself
19:41:20 <damian> i mean if you ask and they say no, you can always offer them a slab of beer and see if they say yes
19:41:42 <Halcyon> I guess I can always offer the NBN techs a bribe?
19:41:51 <damian> but you have to find one first
19:42:02 <Halcyon> If I induce a fault to get them out here?
19:42:05 <damian> depending on the area it might actually be a stupid one as well
19:42:30 <damian> i think NBN purchased / lease lines from optus and telstra, depending on the technology, so you might go to NBN and they will have to go to Telstra/Optus
19:42:43 <damian> yeah, do some digging and see what happens
19:43:09 <Halcyon> There is an intermittent open circuit somewhere along the line
19:43:27 <Halcyon> As long as the wind doesn't blow, it's not enough for the RSPs to log a fault with NBN Co.
19:43:49 <damian> hahah
19:44:11 <damian> find it and DESTROY IT
19:44:18 <damian> man i am hammered
19:44:30 <Halcyon> ;-)
19:44:35 <Halcyon> Friday afternoon beverages?
19:46:20 <Halcyon> Aussie Broadband advises this: " For NBN to investigate a fault this profile needs to be applied and a minimum of 5 dropouts recorded over a 24hr period on NBN's systems before a dropout fault can be raised."
19:46:41 <Halcyon> I wonder if that's their subtle way of saying "randomly disconnect your modem 5 times and we'll log a fault with them"
19:46:42 <Halcyon> :P
19:47:15 <damian> yeah, once i get up i'm going to pop a couple of codein and have a glass of grappa
19:47:31 <damian> hahahah
19:47:39 <Halcyon> You sleeping on the couch again?

19:48:09 <damian> i went from the first to the second today
19:48:24 <damian> 2.5sqm dirt, 1.5sqm wood chip
19:48:26 <Halcyon> Oh well done
19:48:27 <damian> i. am. knackered.
19:48:30 <Halcyon> Come and do my yard
19:49:05 <Halcyon> Fuck me, how close do they build houses these days?
19:49:11 <Halcyon> Can you even walk down the side?
19:53:49 <damian> nah, there's no space between them on these ones. entrace to the back yard is through the garade
19:53:51 <damian> garage
19:54:17 <damian> except for them putting the hot water service on the wrong side of the house when building, it's not an issue
19:54:25 <damian> just can't get a wheel barrow through there, which is a shit
19:54:43 <damian> so a couple of months ago i had to cart 3sqm of dirt through the house to the back yard :P

20:25:51 <K> hello
20:28:02 <T3sl4> hi
20:36:06 <Halcyon> Hey T3sl4
20:36:41 <Halcyon> I'm looking at stepdown transformers, there are toroidal ones, then cheaper ones that don't specify
20:36:44 <Halcyon> What's the difference?
20:39:32 <K> i would assume the others use regular E core ?
20:39:50 <Halcyon> *shrug* would it matter for a consumer appliance?
20:40:22 <K> hm, depends
20:41:25 <K> i think toroidal ones have less emissions, and are more compact for same VA than regular E or U cores
20:42:07 <K> but are more expensive to manufacture
20:42:46 <K> T3sl4 probably knows more
20:44:16 <K> what type of consumer appliance? step-down transformer usually means linear psu
20:45:13 <T3sl4> for what, replacement?
20:45:36 <T3sl4> toroids perform better in many ways yes
20:46:27 <damian> urmom does
20:47:18 <T3sl4> not that you could afford her
20:52:44 <damian> burn!
20:52:47 <damian> i'm poor :(

21:03:50 <Halcyon> His face is saying "Just wait until my legs are better"
21:05:23 <T3sl4> yeah coyotes aren't friends
21:05:43 <Halcyon> We don't have them here, but even I can tell that isn't a dog
21:06:56 <T3sl4> are mongoose wild enough?
21:07:11 <T3sl4> or, i forget what else is a generalist down there that would be comparable
21:07:24 <Halcyon> Hmm
21:07:29 <Halcyon> Don't think we have those either?
21:07:41 <Halcyon> They kind of look like large ferrets
21:08:02 <T3sl4> oh
21:08:14 <T3sl4> wrong continent ;p
21:09:34 <K> couldn't you comapre a coyote to a dingo or somth?
