00:00:22 <rust_collector> I have operated on chainsaws before...
00:00:37 <coppice_> I hate that when I have my greatest problems, the only way to deal with them is to see a doctor
00:01:00 <Ampera> coppice_, be glad that the only way to deal with them isn't to see a therapist
00:01:21 <Ampera> that's when you know you're /really/ in the hands of the hack
00:02:37 <coppice_> I don't think they are fundamentally any better than therapits. doctors only do better when they need to produce clearly tangible results. note how much better they do dealing with a large wound than dealing with things causing long term pain
00:03:28 <Ampera> the thing is a doctor can fix a lot of things with medicines and surgeries that actually work
00:03:40 <Ampera> therapists can't fix jack shit
00:04:12 <coppice_> they fix their bank balances rather well
00:04:40 <Ampera> aye
00:04:54 <Ampera> my therapist also beamed when he found he was out of network for my insurance
00:05:01 <Ampera> even though he was listed as accepting it
00:06:42 <Ampera> Anyways, class is starting, ciao
00:06:52 <rust_collector> have fun, lol

07:16:30 <Halcyon> While you breaders are busy changing poopy nappies, the gays will run the world ;-)
07:17:16 <gremlinz> i'm lesbian
07:17:42 <Halcyon> Meh, lesbians can go to the hardware store and fix everything up for us :P
07:17:52 * T3sl4 fries a breaded Halcyon
07:17:53 * Halcyon doesn't do power tools
07:18:00 <gremlinz> i work in hardware
07:18:04 <Halcyon> \o/
07:18:38 <Halcyon> I jest of course :)
07:18:43 <Halcyon> Also, good morning T3sl4
07:18:48 <T3sl4> o/
07:20:41 * T3sl4 gives Halcyon a pork chop sandwich https://i.imgur.com/YnuAcxq.jpg
07:21:00 <Halcyon> That looks delicious... mayo?
07:21:43 <Halcyon> The bread looks lovely too
07:22:09 <Halcyon> You have such nice hands, they look soft
07:22:54 * T3sl4 patpats Halcyon
07:23:04 <Halcyon> And paper plates? :P
07:23:04 <T3sl4> mayo, mustard, lettuce and chop
07:23:07 * T3sl4 nods
07:23:12 <Halcyon> Is that do you don't have to tidy up?
07:23:15 <T3sl4> and a table that's contaminated with lead :)
07:23:15 <Halcyon> *so
07:23:30 <T3sl4> no dishwasher, and fuck doing it by hand :)
07:23:32 <Halcyon> Meh, as long as you wash your hands, there is no issue
07:23:41 <Halcyon> Yep, fair enough. I couldn't live without my dishwasher.
07:24:16 <T3sl4> i have dishes, i just never wash them
07:24:34 <Halcyon> Actually at work, we have this special hand washing liquid soap specifically for handling lead (bullets etc...). Not sure what it does different to regular soap?
07:24:40 <T3sl4> huh
07:25:16 <Halcyon> http://www.cagroup.com.au/hand-soap/
07:26:08 <T3sl4> yeah, no info
07:26:12 <Halcyon> *shrug*
07:26:20 <Halcyon> Anyway I should go, later guys
07:26:35 <T3sl4> best i would guess is a surfactant that likes metal or oxide dusts better, or maybe a chelate l
07:26:45 <Halcyon> Thanks for showing me your meat T3sl4. That has put me in a good mood for the day.
07:26:45 <T3sl4> *hugs* /
07:26:50 <T3sl4> haha
07:55:16 <Ampera> hi Halcyon
07:55:57 Join: steve30 ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
08:01:03 <Ampera> eevblog time
08:01:03 <EEVBlog> Ah shoot, Doc! We've ended up at 08:01 Sydney time.
08:01:11 * Ampera sneezes on Halcyon
08:01:14 <Ampera> wake up ya sleepy cunt
08:03:27 <T3sl4> (2:26:14 PM) Halcyon: Anyway I should go, later guys
08:03:50 <T3sl4> ya just missed him, but i can cunt for ya
08:03:53 <T3sl4> oi ya wanker
08:05:03 * Ampera packages T3sl4 up in a box and ships him off to one of those countries where they may or may not kinda do that
08:07:42 <T3sl4> https://i.redd.it/f76to7i0y6441.jpg
08:08:52 <Ampera> T3sl4, somehow I think I'd manage to be worse at following programming bob ross than I would actual bob ross
08:50:42 <Guest|53236> does anyone know what dave's preferred way is for ordering a bm235 -- online store, or amazon?
08:51:18 <Ampera> Guest|53236, what do you mean by preferred?
08:51:53 <Guest|53236> i mean how he would rather i purchase one -- where he would rather i order from
08:52:32 <Ampera> Guest|53236, I presume he gets money from both
08:52:46 <Ampera> but I'd imagine there would be less monetary overhead on his store
08:53:52 <Guest|53236> i'm guessing so as well. but there might be other considerations, such as ease of returns for example?
08:57:54 <steve30> I can't speak from experience, but I understand he is fine with returns. He'd be obliged to deal with faulty stuff anyway.
08:58:03 <T3sl4> buy from both, return to both, and see which is easier, then buy one back

10:54:18 <orzel> Halcyon: hello. I manage to connect, but from another computer/server
10:54:19 <EEVBlog> Hello there, orzel!
10:55:57 <orzel> Halcyon: it doesn't work neither from (yet) another server. It failt differently, stratght away at the start, with: Unable to connect server irc.austnet.org port 6667 [Cannot assign requested address: 172.105.241.14]
10:56:07 <orzel> (no idea what 'assign' means here, never saw that)
10:56:42 <orzel> So basically, it fails for me in 2 cases out of three
10:57:37 <orzel> Trying with another client on my own computer, i have a new message: You are banned from this IRC server. Please email [email protected] with the banned IP/host and reason
10:57:53 <T3sl4> ask gremlinz?
10:57:56 <orzel> i guess because of too many attempts (?)
10:58:43 <orzel> T3sl4: err.. yeps. He/she is a kind of op ?
10:59:02 <orbii> an wild orzel appears
10:59:49 <orbii> lolz austnet
11:00:22 <T3sl4> or damian is an admin too right? or i forget who else
11:00:32 <orzel> Hi everybody btw. I cannot connect to this irc from my computer, and was talking with Halcyon on the eevblog (web) forum about it
11:00:41 <T3sl4> o/
11:01:54 <orzel> I expected far more people here. Maybe irc is not trendy anymore ? Or maybe not in the electronic community ?
11:02:25 <orbii> irc hasnt been trendy or interesting since the mass exodus starting in about 2007
11:03:16 <T3sl4> still a lot of eevbloggers on the old server
11:06:06 <orbii> the old server is better
11:07:26 <orzel> Not sure i understand. what is the 'old server' ? Another irc server/chan ?
11:07:32 <orbii> yes.
11:07:48 <orbii> #EEVBlog @ AfterNET.Org
11:07:59 <orbii> where teh channel was originally hosted before Dave moved it here.
11:08:54 <T3sl4> it's still around, on account of being the informal (fan founded) channel
11:09:10 <T3sl4> this is actually the first and only truly official channel, go figure :P
11:09:33 <orzel> let's try that..
11:10:52 <orbii> 74 people vs. 34
11:16:12 <orzel> can't connect there, it writes 'password required' for every nickname i try. Even stuff like 'aofijoewfjaewaw'
11:17:21 <orbii> interesting
11:17:27 <orbii> what hostname did you use? just irc.afternet.org?
11:17:57 <orbii> password required tends to mean you're hitting a server you're not allowed to use (but there's a password there in-case you're an operator and need to bypass it)
11:18:44 <T3sl4> irc.afternet.org yeah
11:18:51 <T3sl4> should be just enter a username and no password
11:23:38 <orzel> ah, indeed, works better with irc. prepended
11:23:44 <orzel> T3sl4: thx ;)

20:29:46 <Halcyon> Yes I saw
20:30:06 <Halcyon> I don't really follow UK politics, is Boris popular or not (I mean he won, but is he any good)
