00:00:11 <MrMobodies> tired/drunk looking people who are all over
00:00:38 <MrMobodies> being dazzled by super bright LEDS, on the road at night.
00:00:50 <Ysjoelfir> I paid fucking 1600€ and had to repeat the practical exam once because that dickhead driving instructor was like "ooooh, there was a pedestrian crossing way. didn't you see the elderly couple in 200m? what if they would have started to run now? you didn't pass the test."
00:01:16 <rust_collector> my grandpa had to borrow his brothers truck, to get to the local police station, go inside, explain that he wanted one of those new license things, police guy asked if he could drive.... oh, yes I see your truck there, sign, stamp here you go
00:01:31 <MrMobodies> 1600 euros... sounds a lot.
00:01:41 <MrMobodies> elderly people running...
00:01:47 <Ysjoelfir> thats cheap if you compare nowadays fees
00:02:02 <Ysjoelfir> my girlfriend is doing it right now. she paid 450€ only for the paperwork
00:02:21 <MrMobodies> can you drive... yes, please sign that you can drive... simple
00:02:54 <Ysjoelfir> then 35€ for every theoretical leseon (there are 12), 65€ for every driving lesson (at least 10) and 120 for every "special" driving lesson (like in the night, highways,... there are 6 of those)
00:02:56 <rust_collector> that was in 194x. you did not need to have a license, but you could
00:02:56 <MrMobodies> and it was the police..nice
00:03:30 * Ysjoelfir feels the urge to move to the toilet rather quickly
00:03:31 <Ysjoelfir> brb
00:04:05 <rust_collector> I don't even know what >I paid in the end, with the hgv stuff and all that
00:04:06 <MrMobodies> going to make some Lapsumg tea, the smokey stuff from China.
00:04:22 <rust_collector> smokey tea
00:11:12 <Ysjoelfir> re
00:11:21 <rust_collector> pq
00:11:45 <rust_collector> is the toilet ok?
00:12:45 <Ysjoelfir> I guess. But my rectum isn't.
00:13:02 <T3sl4> oh my
00:13:02 <rust_collector> mmm, must be a thing these days
00:13:18 <K> smokey the rectum?
00:13:44 <Ysjoelfir> xD that was predictable. as soon as someone talks about feces or ass they all come out of their holes
00:13:54 <Ysjoelfir> do you have a notification for such words or what? :P
00:14:16 <rust_collector> ssssh! the bot will hear you
00:14:25 <Ysjoelfir> ah damn! :X
00:16:37 <K> that is a trade secret, Ysjoelfir.
00:17:03 <rust_collector> export restrictions and stuff
00:19:33 <Ysjoelfir> ah, I understand.
00:20:21 <rust_collector> steam bicycle. that sounds... like a small train
00:21:17 <rust_collector> ok, I was wrong, it sounds like a damn lawn mower
00:21:57 <Ysjoelfir> at least it doesn't sound like one of those stupid leaf blowers
00:22:21 <rust_collector> hmm, you mean a jet powered bicycle?
00:22:23 <rust_collector> hmmm
00:22:29 <rust_collector> hm hm hmmmmmmm
00:22:50 <K> like that colin furze stuff?
00:23:06 <rust_collector> no, not a pulse jet
00:23:15 <Ysjoelfir> more like a blow jet?
00:24:02 <rust_collector> I think I saw mr furz getting a turbo, but I am not sure if I saw him use it for anything
00:24:03 <K> hm, aren't those pulse jets he makes/uses?
00:24:13 <rust_collector> yes, it is
00:24:26 <K> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsXWspo5hrc
00:24:36 <rust_collector> the trombome looking things
00:26:40 <rust_collector> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvS8wtnNQz4
00:38:47 <MrMobodies> I like the one with the stairs
00:39:43 <MrMobodies> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ya1iDTix8Js
00:40:05 <MrMobodies> I found that comedy when he ran up for the biscuits
00:47:34 <Ysjoelfir> T3sl4, did you talk some more with the guy from yesterday who was very... like... searching for answers to all possible questions?
00:48:11 <rust_collector> the guy I made ampera ban?
00:48:21 <Ysjoelfir> I don't know?
00:48:27 <rust_collector> joepubic
00:48:27 <T3sl4> haven't heard another word ;)
00:48:45 <Ysjoelfir> no, joepublic wasnt the one. don't remember the name^^
00:48:50 <rust_collector> ok
00:49:05 <Ysjoelfir> ah, ok. so we were passive enough to his 12476219745619286451927631 questions that he didn't bother anymore?
00:49:44 <Ysjoelfir> I mean, I like to help people... But that was.. a bit much.
00:50:15 <rust_collector> dockster
00:51:14 <Ysjoelfir> possible
00:51:49 <rust_collector> so? what about sportsweatherreligion then?
00:52:06 <rust_collector> I think
00:52:07 <rust_collector> maybe
00:53:10 <Ysjoelfir> The good old Sportweatherreligion. Thats my favourite topic! close to politics.
00:53:29 <rust_collector> polytics is ok too
00:53:55 * Ysjoelfir stuffs some foam into his ears...
00:53:58 <Ysjoelfir> The cleaning ladies arrived... with their vacuums... yay
00:54:22 <rust_collector> oh, a... not flood warning, but a high water level warning
00:54:27 <rust_collector> uhm, ok
00:55:26 <Ysjoelfir> I already have a wonderful headache from working with an 5kVA AC source the whole morning... that thing is teribly loud. had to hide in the workshop to not geting shot by the co workers when tutning that thing on.
01:00:06 <rust_collector> so, what are you doing with that?
01:00:47 <Ysjoelfir> I wanted to see if it has a negative output impedance
01:01:06 <rust_collector> designing a faster hand dryer for public restrooms, I get it
01:01:55 <rust_collector> well, did it?
01:02:29 <Ysjoelfir> I'm designing a reference impedance for flicker measurements that uses an AC source as... well, as the AC source. and regarding to the standards you have to take into account the impedance of the source, too.
01:02:30 <Ysjoelfir> calibrating the reference impedance is easier if the AC source can only have positive output impedances. and yes, it had. I couldn't get the source to behave like a negative impedance. which is good for me.
01:02:48 <Ysjoelfir> But the hand dryer thing would be applicable, too. at least if loudnes is the limiting factor.
01:04:30 <rust_collector> flicker, as in light?
01:05:11 <Ysjoelfir> that is what it comes down to. but in the standard it is described in the term of voltage fluctuations.
01:05:52 <rust_collector> mmkay
01:06:27 <Ysjoelfir> basically, if you design a device acording to that standard you want to make sure that the lights don't flicker if your device does what it does
01:06:42 <Ysjoelfir> like when a fridge starts the compressor, you don't want the bulb in the kitchen to go dim
01:07:06 <rust_collector> ok
01:10:46 <hsn93> i thought i saw that in one of dave's videos .. https://www.eevblog.com/forum/beginners/ucurrent-gold-trace-to-shunt-resistors-has-no-soldermask/

01:43:57 <rust_collector> Ok, I have to fix my brain thing now
01:44:04 <rust_collector> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WX8CqfpGwzw
01:57:19 <T3sl4> nice, soothing melody :)
01:57:37 <rust_collector> it is, if you play it loud enough
01:59:38 <T3sl4> it's an interesting strategy, to bury the melody in so much noise that you actually have to turn it up to hear it
02:00:17 <T3sl4> suspect my speakers don't have quite enough frequency range (just some bookshelf ones)
02:00:18 <rust_collector> yep. it just does not work until you crank it up
02:00:52 <Ysjoelfir> meeeeh.... the cleaning people are back, this time with that... floor polishing thing. you know, those that go like WOBWOBWOBWOB
02:01:10 <Ysjoelfir> I guess I'm leaving now before I go cpmpletely nuts because of the headache x.x
02:01:21 <rust_collector> techno!
02:01:30 <rust_collector> wobwobwobwob
02:01:32 <Ysjoelfir> i love techno, but not that one
02:01:57 <Ysjoelfir> anyways, I'm off for now.
02:02:03 Quit: Ysjoelfir ([email protected]) Quit: Farvel og har en hyggelige tid :)
02:03:26 <T3sl4> also suspect the noise level doesn't compress well; YT's audio is generally alright but this is probably pushing it
02:05:28 <rust_collector> I can not really listen to music now, as I have half of a nokia handsfree set
02:05:54 <rust_collector> they...it works much better than I thought it would, lol
02:06:00 <hsn93> ultra librarian seems to give a lot of wrong 3d models ?
02:06:35 <hsn93> or footprint .. im not sure which one now
02:06:53 <hsn93> but there pcb footprint doesnt fit their 3d models ?
02:07:44 <rust_collector> Did I write that ultra librarian thing?
02:08:02 <rust_collector> it sort of sounds like I did
02:10:24 <hsn93> totally my mistake this time :D
02:10:30 <hsn93> i imported wrong one

03:05:30 <rust_collector> well hello mr I am at home
03:15:42 <Ysjoelfir> You mean mr. Im at home but the girlfriend wants to go shopping so being away again x.x
03:16:04 <rust_collector> aah, yes, I am very sorry
03:16:24 <Ysjoelfir> I would appreciate that
03:16:33 <Ysjoelfir> I am suffering big time
03:16:47 <Ysjoelfir> just got a parking spot right in front of the flat :_:
03:16:58 <rust_collector> going out for indian food... what a horrible time
03:17:14 <rust_collector> ok, so you are walking?
03:17:34 <Ysjoelfir> your ass is on fire after your mouth was on fire before?
03:17:37 <rust_collector> you can not give up that spot
03:17:39 <Ysjoelfir> i would like to, yes
03:17:50 <Ysjoelfir> but she wouldnÄt be to happy i guess :D
03:18:52 <rust_collector> äæäæäæäæ tell her it is the green thing
03:19:04 <Ysjoelfir> that could work. let me try
03:19:45 <Ysjoelfir> nope, didn't work
03:20:18 <rust_collector> do you have a cargo bike?
03:22:04 <Ysjoelfir> I have built a trailer for my bike, when I'm shopping alone I tend to use that. but she doesn't like cycling. So I guess I have to move now xD
03:22:53 <rust_collector> ok. well, you don't have to go shopping that often now
03:24:03 <K> put her in the trailer
03:24:09 <K> and bike
03:24:26 <rust_collector> wife has a cheap electric bike. she says it works well. I am not going to try it.
03:25:14 <hsn93> http://80.229.80.165/tech_info/
03:25:14 <rust_collector> but I could use something like an electric bike with some kind of load....area
03:26:18 <K> what is that, hsn93 ?
03:26:42 <hsn93> i've no idea just found good stuff in this server..
03:26:54 <rust_collector> it is a trap, the robots wants you to follow the map

03:34:59 <rust_collector> I am not sure how I ended up here: http://www.mss.vatlib.it/guii/scan/link1.jsp?fond=Vat.lat.
03:36:48 <rust_collector> I made food
03:36:54 <rust_collector> I have supperpowers

03:41:45 <rust_collector> I am testing waterfox now, and it is sloooow
03:42:35 <hsn93> its not fire
03:42:50 <rust_collector> right
03:44:09 <hsn93> i've to leave
03:44:12 <hsn93> see u
03:44:32 <rust_collector> have enjoys mr sir
03:44:41 <hsn93> u2
04:03:49 <T3sl4> rust_collector: supperpowers, eh? if you won't eat a certain food, does that make it your kelptonite?
04:05:02 <rust_collector> very close.
04:05:27 <rust_collector> I do think I could try to eat kelp. at least if it was dried
04:11:09 <rust_collector> maybe mixed in with a lot of chocolate, for the best effect
04:17:46 <Ampera> rust_collector, multiple bot timezone is on the planning list, but timezones are a right pain in the ass.
04:18:12 <Ampera> I could be lazy and just have people configure a +UTC offset, but that makes it a pain in the ass on people using it instead.
04:18:21 <rust_collector> yeah, I agree, we should just agree on one timezone
04:18:25 <Ampera> As for Ed who was joinspamming, he's banned for 48 hours
04:18:38 <Ampera> Well we did, Sydney's time
04:19:20 <rust_collector> Ok, I have to adjust the clock at work slightly
04:19:52 <rust_collector> so, are you back home?
04:21:14 <Ampera> rust_collector, no I will be in about 32 hours or so.
04:21:21 <Ampera> tomorrow at around 8-9
04:21:23 <rust_collector> oh
04:21:24 <Ampera> EST
04:21:52 <rust_collector> hmm. which is..... what in new standard time?
04:22:26 <rust_collector> I thought we agreed on dave time
04:22:37 <Ampera> eevblog time
04:22:38 <EEVBlog> Ah shoot, Doc! We've ended up at 04:22 Sydney time.
04:22:54 <Ampera> my time is 12:22, and Syndey is +14 from me
04:23:11 <rust_collector> yeah, we should just use one time
04:23:25 <Ampera> so 21 + 14 = 15
04:23:30 <Ampera> er, no
04:23:39 <Ampera> 11.
04:23:48 <rust_collector> this is like being back in school, and I had a tendency to go do something else
04:24:08 <Ampera> and I disagree, while I understand the use of a unified time, my mind and schedule is oriented around local time's numbers.
04:24:20 <Ampera> I'm used to it, I'm used to time zones, just deal with it
04:24:42 * T3sl4 hugs Ampera
04:24:48 * Ampera chugs T3sl4
04:24:49 <rust_collector> I want change, just for the change
04:25:10 * T3sl4 differentiates rust_collector
04:25:10 <Ampera> rust_collector, that's the kinda progressive attitude that resulted in Nazi Germany and the global scourge of communism.
04:25:32 <rust_collector> It will probably be really expensive, and annoy a lot of people for some time, which is good
04:26:00 <Ampera> kinda like communism
04:26:03 <Ampera> and facism for that matter
04:27:12 <rust_collector> that is ok, I can be your hitler. just fix the time
04:28:05 <rust_collector> just set it to your time, My internal clock is borked anyway, so I don't care

04:52:09 <rust_collector> Ysjoelfir, would you come on a short 3-4 day vacation, to where hsn93 is?
04:53:07 <rust_collector> just for food and to look around
04:56:08 <Ampera> I don't know what Bahrain is like, actually.
04:56:28 <Ampera> I know it's a bit of a generalization, but so long as the laws are decent enough, I wouldn't mind going
04:56:37 <Ampera> That holds true for most places.
04:57:34 <rust_collector> I don't know too much about that place either.
04:58:00 <T3sl4> knowing the local language a bit would help
04:58:05 Join: AndrevS ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
04:58:27 <T3sl4> guessing they don't speak much english there (tho if they do, that's certainly helpful)
04:59:16 <rust_collector> I think they do, at least a bit, but I don't know
05:02:54 <Ampera> T3sl4, apparently English is a recognized language, but the main language is Arabic.
05:12:36 <T3sl4> not bad
05:14:26 <DHess_US> I think I'm giving up on the various NAS distributions. I am going to install Gentoo on this box and setup a NAS manually, or create Skynet and destroy human civilization, whichever is easier.
05:26:01 <rust_collector> why gentoo?
05:26:40 <DHess_US> I like the idea of being able to compile from source, and the system is a Pentium4.
05:27:06 <rust_collector> hmm, ok then
05:27:07 <Ampera> FreeBSD is a venerable option for NAS usage.
05:27:08 <DHess_US> Too many other distributions have dropped x86.
05:27:22 <DHess_US> Yea, I might still go with FreeBSD.
05:27:24 <Ampera> and gives you easy to compile everything from source with good makefiles
05:27:32 <Ampera> plus, ZFS
05:27:44 <DHess_US> ZFS works on Gentoo also.
05:27:46 <Ampera> though that might be a bit much for that poor Pentium 4
05:27:53 <DHess_US> No, should work fine.
05:27:55 <Ampera> It does, but you have to use a custom kernel.
05:28:19 <DHess_US> Pentium4 with 2G of ECC RAM. It's my old workstation.
05:28:26 <DHess_US> And CSA networking
05:29:01 <DHess_US> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Communication_Streaming_Architecture
05:29:06 <DHess_US> So not your average Pentium4.
05:31:15 <rust_collector> well, good night
05:31:23 * T3sl4 pops corn on Ampera's kernel
05:31:26 <Ampera> 2GB is not much, is my point
05:31:40 <Ampera> ZFS likes to be memory hungry.
05:36:03 <DHess_US> Only if you use deduplication. ZFS has a reputation for needing memory because of memory cache growth.
05:36:35 <DHess_US> But you can limit it to values much lower than 2G in which case it runs like every other file system with lower amounts of read cache.
05:37:42 <DHess_US> And no matter what the performance hit is, it can't be slower than fucking Windows 10 Storage Pools on modern hardware.
05:38:28 <Ampera> I suppose so.
05:38:55 <DHess_US> Even Linus in a recent video was amazed at how slow Windows 10 is.
05:39:37 <DHess_US> The developers over at Microsoft are smoking crack if they think they are competitive.
05:44:04 <DHess_US> I need to test the hard drives so got it running DBAN in verify mode.
05:44:53 <DHess_US> which is more effective than wiping with zeros or doing a surface scan
05:52:33 <Ampera> DHess_US, it dismays me how impossible Windows 10 is to use on a hard drive
05:52:41 <Ampera> and honestly I have no clue why, it doesn't do anything special.
05:52:59 <Ampera> I can't even get a Linux box to junk that slow.
05:53:50 <DHess_US> It isn't even that but Microsoft does not know what features are supported.
05:54:14 <DHess_US> Reading through the customer support for Storage Pools shows that it is just broken.
05:54:50 <DHess_US> I suspect they outsourced too much development to India and such.
05:55:41 <DHess_US> Cause management is saying "yes, completely supported", customer support is saying, "that should work", and the developers are saying, "we never implemented that."
05:57:18 <Ampera> DHess_US, reminds me of Verizon, whose FiOS PR and support are hot garbage.
05:58:40 <DHess_US> AT&T U-Verse isn't any better.
06:02:40 <Ampera> DHess_US, I've heard it's worse.
06:03:04 <Ampera> and do absolutely retarded things like lock router/modems to their own supplied units
06:04:31 <DHess_US> I had IPv6 working great on U-Verse for many years. Then AT&T blocked third party tunnels so I switched to the multicast tunnel. Then AT&T blocked that so I switched to the manual tunnel. Then AT&T blocked that and said if I wanted IPv6, I had to pay extra.
06:04:33 <DHess_US> Fuck AT&T.
06:05:20 <Ampera> lolwhat
06:05:37 <Ampera> okay, in terms of IPv6, I suppose you can be worse than Verizon
06:05:55 <DHess_US> They gave multiple reasons for blocking IPv6. We had to for law enforcement (I believe this one). We blocked it because otherwise customers could get a static IP without paying. IPv6 tunnels are obsolete.
06:06:37 <Ampera> lol, to get a static IP without paying
06:06:38 <DHess_US> I suspect they blocked it to meet CALEA. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communications_Assistance_for_Law_Enforcement_Act

06:11:56 <Ampera> anyways, I'm happy with my /48, the speed is good, and I have IPv6 now.
06:21:17 <Ysjoelfir> re.. and finally more or less done cooking :X
06:37:00 <Halcyon> Morning Ampera
06:37:14 <Ampera> Hi Halcyon
06:37:16 <Ampera> how do
06:37:26 <Halcyon> Tired, you?
06:37:37 <Ampera> Getting ready to go tomorrow
06:37:55 <Halcyon> YAY
06:39:09 <Halcyon> Ampera, someone came up with a suggestion earlier about the eevblog time box
06:39:10 <Halcyon> bot
06:39:16 <Ampera> yes I saw and replied to it
06:39:33 <Ampera> It's in the plans, but timezones are a right pain in the ass to program for
06:40:08 <Halcyon> I'd imagine initially it would just need to be a small "database" of the common users
06:40:30 <Halcyon> You, me (same as Dave), Steve, T3sl4 etc...
06:41:22 <Ampera> Well the thing is I could program it so that people could enter in their own timezones in +UTC offsets
06:41:25 <Ampera> but that's not user friendly
06:41:45 <Ampera> I suppose I could simply do the common zoneinfos that Linux/BSD operate on.
06:41:46 <Ysjoelfir> we don't care about user friendliness here
06:41:57 <Ampera> Ysjoelfir, explain all the hugging then.
06:42:11 <Halcyon> Yes and Ampera constantly trying to come onto me
06:42:17 <Ysjoelfir> XD
06:42:20 <Halcyon> And T3sl4 being a prick tease
06:42:29 * T3sl4 slaps Halcyon with his cock
06:42:31 <Ampera> Halcyon, I believe oyu mean "into" not "onto"
06:42:33 <Halcyon> See
06:42:45 <T3sl4> https://i.imgur.com/pkVB9Ly.jpg
06:43:30 <Halcyon> Oooh no added MSG :)
06:43:31 <Halcyon> Nice
06:44:06 <Ysjoelfir> But MSG tasts sooo nice. Ask the asians!
06:44:26 <Halcyon> I'm sure it does, but it makes my nose itchy
06:44:33 <Halcyon> (In larger amounts)
06:44:35 <Ampera> bullshit
06:44:57 <Halcyon> No bullshit, if I eat a moderate dose of MSG, my nose pisses me off
06:45:05 <Halcyon> Small amounts don't have an effect
06:46:00 <Halcyon> Anyway I need to poop and go to work. Later guys.
06:46:05 * Halcyon licks Ysjoelfir on the way out
06:46:20 <Ysjoelfir> have fun :)
06:46:28 * Ysjoelfir rubs himself dry
06:46:34 <T3sl4> mmm, dry rub
06:46:56 <Ysjoelfir> yeah. I especially love "Butt glitter rub"
06:46:56 * T3sl4 gives Ampera's meat a dry rub
06:47:26 <T3sl4> https://i.imgur.com/b0CwuS1.mp4
06:47:49 <coppice_> east asia kinda separates into places where they put huge amounts of MSG in everything, where every noodle bowl is left with the soup still in it, and places which use MSG sparingly, where noodle bowls are left empty
06:50:52 <T3sl4> you'd think they'd want to save costs by using less
06:51:13 <T3sl4> i wonder how the cost of MSG compares to the cost of the noodles themselves
06:51:26 <coppice_> well, the MSG that permeates the noodles does make them more tasty
06:51:27 <T3sl4> is it cheaper to feed people with MSG than actual food?
06:51:57 <Ampera> MSG is not expensive, it's similar to salt iirc.
06:52:48 <coppice_> Since Ajinomoto cracked making MSG at a very low cost its everywhere
06:52:52 <T3sl4> certainly less nutritious, though if they used glutamic acid rather than the sodium salt, it might not be quite as toxic
06:53:54 <Ampera> MSG isn't really toxic to begin with.
06:54:02 <T3sl4> i mean the sodium is
06:54:12 <Ampera> well we salt out foods too
06:54:18 <Ampera> *our
06:54:25 <T3sl4> NaCl is toxic to the tune of about >100g being a fatal dose
06:54:35 <Ampera> that's a lot of salt though
06:54:49 <coppice_> if you put the amount of sodium on your food that MSG adds, you'd consider it brine and refuse to eat iy
06:54:58 <T3sl4> if you can imagine choking down a half pound of salt at once, or a pound of MSG at once, you'll be in about the same place
06:55:20 <Ampera> again, that's way more than anyone would ever use, so I wouldn't be worrying about the toxicity.
06:55:24 <coppice_> the whole point of MSG is to make massive amounts of salt palatable
06:55:34 <coppice_> amounts of sodium
06:55:40 <T3sl4> hm, i wonder how much nutrition you can obtain from a given amino acid, i.e. since you still need to eat other required things including carbs (actually, maybe not carbs, huh?), fats and other amino acids
06:57:22 <Ampera> well glutamic acid is produced in the body
06:57:34 <Ampera> it's a non-essential amino acid, iirc

15:58:36 <T3sl4> if we can get our administration changed quickly, and they theirs, the world will be just a slight bit nicer
16:04:38 <T3sl4> also, this comment https://www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/eo891n/iran_anchor_resigns_after_lying_for_regime_for_13/fea2zi0/
16:28:18 * Ampera overthrows T3sl4
16:28:34 * T3sl4 enslaves Ampera
16:28:37 <Ampera> I think our regime is fine, I'm one of the few people who thinks that really.
16:28:56 <Ampera> I don't think it's great, I don't think it's bad, I think the US government works best when it's a little bit on fire,
16:29:12 <Ampera> that means they're too busy worrying about their own petty squabbled to do any real damage.
16:33:20 <T3sl4> you must not know very much about it to realize the fire is spreading
16:34:18 <Ampera> People have been shouting fire fire, it'll destroy the nation, for the past uh
16:34:21 <Ampera> late 1700's
16:35:17 <T3sl4> and sometimes it did
16:35:20 <T3sl4> 1812 for example
16:35:24 <Ampera> I only get worried when the government starts doing a lot of shit unopposed. Kinda like a skyscraper where the mass dampener disappears
16:35:29 <Ampera> lol

20:51:37 <hsn93> yes Halycyon
20:51:41 <Halcyon> I'm surprised
20:51:45 <hsn93> why
20:51:49 <ThunderSqueak> 93 is so young
20:51:54 <ThunderSqueak> or, I am old
20:51:56 <ThunderSqueak> <.<
20:52:06 <Halcyon> Pretty much every guy in their 20's and 30's think about sex/masturbation
20:52:07 <hsn93> im 26 now .. not so young anymore ?
20:52:13 <ThunderSqueak> but yeah, I am going to marry this one before she gets away ^^
20:52:22 <Halcyon> Why would she get away?
20:52:26 <ThunderSqueak> hsn93, you are a kid :P
20:52:32 <hsn93> im married :D
20:52:44 <ThunderSqueak> Halcyon, she probably wont, considering she wants to marry me XD
20:52:49 <Halcyon> \o/
20:53:05 <ThunderSqueak> she told me already I am family, and part of her clan
20:53:10 <ThunderSqueak> she is native
20:53:15 <Halcyon> Native what?
20:53:18 <ThunderSqueak> her mom likes me
20:53:21 <ThunderSqueak> native alaskan
20:53:29 <Halcyon> Different
20:53:34 <hsn93> i know the big flexible flobby disk .. am i still kid :( ?
20:53:45 <ThunderSqueak> hsn93, 26 is still a kid
20:53:52 <Halcyon> hsn93: I have a box of 8" floppy disks at work
20:53:59 <ThunderSqueak> still lots of learning and growing to do...
20:54:00 <Halcyon> Hah ThunderSqueak; I'm not that much older :P
20:54:11 <hsn93> yup
20:54:13 <ThunderSqueak> I am 42 in a couple weeks XD
20:54:40 <Halcyon> Old fart :P
20:54:49 <ThunderSqueak> heh

20:55:35 <hsn93> wait thats real u ?
20:55:39 <hsn93> lol ok
20:55:39 <Halcyon> hsn93: There are quite a few gay/bi/trans people in this industry
20:55:54 <Halcyon> No idea why
20:55:59 <ThunderSqueak> I know why
20:56:03 <hsn93> why
20:56:04 <Halcyon> I think the gays are slowly taking over the world :P
20:56:12 <hsn93> Age: 29 and holding
20:56:35 <ThunderSqueak> because when you are young, and the world rejects you... you often hide in your room when you are a kid, or spend those hours reading books... you learn
20:57:18 <ThunderSqueak> Halcyon, honestly, if all the LGBT people left the USA, I think it would go back into the dark ages.... we invent, control, and maintain almost all the underlying tech in the USA
20:57:35 <Halcyon> The Chinese think they are going to win... they have a rude shock coming :P
20:57:51 <ThunderSqueak> reminds me of something....
20:58:07 <Halcyon> hsn93: We like the straighies anyway :P
20:58:16 <Halcyon> You guys have an important job
20:58:21 <hsn93> :D
20:58:24 <Halcyon> *straighties
20:58:50 <hsn93> straighties who r intrested in anything ?
20:59:01 <Halcyon> I'll be back soon, got to cook chicken
20:59:03 <Halcyon> clear
20:59:19 <hsn93> ok
20:59:43 <ThunderSqueak> remember when the argument was "If you don't like what's out there, go and make your own?" and we did... and now they are like "what's all this gay shit?!?!"

21:15:29 <hsn> Hello there
21:15:39 <ThunderSqueak> oh, you are playing with the bot
21:15:44 <hsn> yeah
21:15:55 <hsn> i have no idea what r it commands
21:16:03 <hsn> man eevblog
21:16:17 <hsn> man ampera
21:16:26 <hsn> :D
21:17:38 <hsn> i used to join (Evilzone) irc chat they had cool bot
21:18:12 <ThunderSqueak> ah
21:19:30 <ThunderSqueak> I have been lurking on IRC networks for way to long to admit too <.<;;
21:19:50 <hsn> https://github.com/EvilzoneLabs/BeastBot
21:20:53 <hsn> i dont understand how its still live :D
21:22:43 <ThunderSqueak> irc networks never die
21:23:15 <ThunderSqueak> going to bed as soon as I can put stuff in the dryer o.o
21:23:21 <ThunderSqueak> *waits for laundry*
21:23:41 <hsn> enjoy
21:23:50 <hsn> i've to go
21:23:54 <hsn> for now
21:23:56 <hsn> its a brake
21:24:00 <hsn> break
21:24:03 <ThunderSqueak> ah
21:24:06 <ThunderSqueak> have fun
21:29:08 Join: Ysjoelfir ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
21:30:16 <Ysjoelfir> hsn - no, I don't do emc measurements, but I build the tools to do them :)
21:30:44 <hsn> like lisns ?
21:32:09 <Ysjoelfir> we buy those from extern. but we build a high precision power analyzer that can measure emc
21:33:27 <hsn> nice
21:33:40 <hsn> u r the yokogawa enemy
21:33:41 <hsn> ?
21:33:42 <hsn> :D
21:34:15 <Ysjoelfir> the company I work for is (as far as yokogawa says) the biggest competitor, yes ^^
21:35:10 <hsn> Tinkertubes Lab
21:35:10 <hsn> is u ?
21:35:35 <Ysjoelfir> yes. but that is not the company I work for, that is just my hobby^^
21:47:37 <hsn> do u ever use gears that u salvage ?
21:48:30 <Ysjoelfir> I collect many of those, but have rarely used some. which is why I gave a whole lot of those away to a workmate recently
21:49:21 <hsn> yeah, i thought these gears are always (being collected) but never used
21:52:09 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: I just cracked the Top 10 list of the biggest channels on @LBRYio W00t! https://t.co/4J3Uc5o3kj
21:52:35 <Ysjoelfir> what is @LBRYio?
21:53:12 <Halcyon> Ysjoelfir: It's an alternative to Youtube
21:53:15 <Halcyon> Dave posts his videos there
21:53:43 <Ysjoelfir> ah
21:53:54 <Ysjoelfir> Did you make your tea eggs?
21:54:00 <Halcyon> Not yet
21:54:19 * Ysjoelfir slobbers on his eggs
21:54:28 <Halcyon> :P
21:54:32 * ThunderSqueak hands Halcyon a stick.
21:54:41 <Halcyon> What's the stick for?
21:54:55 * ThunderSqueak sits back and observes the confusion.
21:54:56 * Ysjoelfir ducks
21:55:06 <K> stick if for the drop bear.
21:55:10 <Ysjoelfir> XD
21:55:14 <Halcyon> Heh
21:55:30 <K> stay safe!
21:55:39 * ThunderSqueak should try sleeping again
21:55:43 <ThunderSqueak> I hate insomnia
21:55:48 <Halcyon> I should go to bed
21:56:04 <Ysjoelfir> I would love to sleep right now, but it isn't even lunchtime
21:56:11 <ThunderSqueak> its 2am
21:56:19 <Ysjoelfir> its 11:56
21:56:19 <Halcyon> It's 2200 here
21:56:34 <K> its 12:56, you insensitive clods!
21:56:48 <ThunderSqueak> nah
21:56:52 <Ysjoelfir> hsn, what time is it at your place? :D
21:57:13 <hsn> 13:57
21:57:17 <hsn> 2pm
21:57:26 <ThunderSqueak> so 12 hours difference exactly o.o
21:57:36 <Ysjoelfir> ok, we need some more people to get a full circle :)
21:58:02 <hsn> full circle ?
21:58:25 <hsn> T3sl4 time now ?
21:58:26 <Ysjoelfir> someone for every hour of the day
21:58:44 <hsn> because usually he comes after 2 hours :D
21:59:02 <Ysjoelfir> Ampera should definitely implement the timezone database for the bot.
21:59:15 <ThunderSqueak> ... I just learned of a product that is on the market... by watching masterchef
21:59:24 <Halcyon> Mmmm ?
21:59:41 <Ysjoelfir> It can't be as good as chef excellence
21:59:47 <ThunderSqueak> https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/547a0d81e4b07ee9b5be1a8c/1532967469805-4DNF4LNSJH2P9F4AWF4F/ke17ZwdGBToddI8pDm48kDLQdTssnjLuDUZANbYIHkF7gQa3H78H3Y0txjaiv_0fDoOvxcdMmMKkDsyUqMSsMWxHk725yiiHCCLfrh8O1z4YTzHvnKhyp6Da-NYroOW3ZGjoBKy3azqku80C789l0q-2qSIFamD7xsZmrBIbUDxMcjKt2kbKAtmfSC3owXNASjxhK1Ef3Ux1yglAH72BbQ/parmela-creamery-mozerella-cheese-shredded.png
22:00:03 <Ysjoelfir> Oo
22:00:17 <Halcyon> Haha you a fan of Ashens too Ysjoelfir ?
22:00:20 <Ysjoelfir> that sounds like fraud to me
22:00:22 <ThunderSqueak> aged nutcheese
22:00:24 <Ysjoelfir> sure i am :D
22:00:28 <Ysjoelfir> @hal
22:00:39 <Halcyon> ThunderSqueak, funny you should say that, I'm watching this right now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aW3_qgYe8Xc
22:01:13 <ThunderSqueak> Halcyon, I can't eat that, would kill me
22:01:26 <ThunderSqueak> but yeah, the name just made me snort
22:01:28 <ThunderSqueak> <.<
22:03:52 <hsn> im tired
22:08:23 <ThunderSqueak> night
22:08:36 Quit: ThunderSqueak ([email protected]) Quit: Leaving
22:08:44 <hsn> see ya
22:11:34 <Ysjoelfir> I hope Squeaky finds sleep now
22:11:51 <Ysjoelfir> while I'm waiting - again - for pulsonix to render a 3D model
22:12:21 <hsn> ;')
22:13:22 <hsn> can i ask about somthing simple
22:13:35 <Ysjoelfir> I investigated its... "slowness" a bit more. that stoopid software uses only one of the 16 cores my machine has. and it renders every fucking via despite me activating that it doesn't need to export vias...
22:13:54 <Ysjoelfir> if i delete every via - boom, fast(er)
22:14:14 <Ysjoelfir> depends on what you want to ask? :)
22:14:34 <hsn> just protection stuff
22:14:45 <hsn> https://snipboard.io/D0189a.jpg << i want to replace the zener diode with clamping diode to 5v rail ..
22:14:49 <Ysjoelfir> you should always use a condon
22:14:54 <Ysjoelfir> *condom
22:14:54 <hsn> :D :D :D
22:15:03 <hsn> im fine with having kid
22:15:43 <hsn> then i've to put protection tvs on the 5v rail right?
22:16:28 <hsn> then i've to go to all components connected to that 5v power rail and check if they accept the voltage that TVS will have at some clamping current ?
22:16:58 <Ysjoelfir> you mean you want to clamp the input to a 5V rail and protect that instead of the input itself?
22:17:49 <hsn> yes becasue protecting the input = leakage current
22:18:03 <hsn> so redirect with diode ..
22:20:45 <hsn> like this : https://snipboard.io/3nTLCR.jpg
22:20:51 <Ysjoelfir> if the input level doesn't exceed your diode voltage and if the diode is fast enough I would assume that it should be possible and simmilarly effective. But I personally prefer to protect the inputs independently, so I haven't tried that yet. T3sl4 could give a definite answer I guess?
22:21:16 <Ysjoelfir> oh wait
22:21:18 <hsn> but this will direct surges to 5v rail ..
22:21:19 <Ysjoelfir> I did try it
22:21:59 <Ysjoelfir> I nearly forgot about that project because it didn't work, but that protection part worked.
22:22:31 <Ysjoelfir> So, I would assume: that should work, if you don't have super sensitive parts to be protected.
22:22:50 <hsn> and if i've ?
22:22:56 <hsn> what would be the soloution
22:23:28 <Ysjoelfir> well, a lm358 isn't what I would call sensitive ;)
22:23:29 <hsn> lets say i've part that has max abs (6.5v) on the 5v rail
22:24:21 <hsn> no, im talking about all the components that are connected to the 5v ..
22:25:38 <hsn> for example i've TPS2113PWR
22:26:00 <Ysjoelfir> that would be dependant on the layout. if you route (eg.) the protection diode straight to a VCC pin of a sensitive part while your TVS is half a mile away on the opposite side of the board I could immagine situations where a surge could kill that part
22:26:41 <hsn> hmm, but diffenetly i've to have tvs on 5v right?
22:27:06 <hsn> bcz this diode isnt clamping anything its just redirecting to 5v
22:27:46 <Ysjoelfir> you could use other protection methods as well, but if you intend to redirect a surge to a supply rail I personally would feel bad not protecting the supply rail itself.
22:27:56 <Ysjoelfir> but also, that is highly dependant on the surge you suspect
22:28:25 <hsn> other method = leakages ?
22:28:45 <hsn> other methods = inaccurate of the signal i mean right?
22:29:24 <hsn> btw, i've no problem in the current design even with zener leakage i've good results but im curious what if this was senstive high impedance signal..
22:29:47 <Ysjoelfir> if you are talking about thousands of volts I wouldn't go without any surge protection. but if instead we are talking about... maybe a 12V surge because some dickhead connected the input to a car battery, that could be ok-ish, depending on the rest of the circuit
22:30:24 <Ysjoelfir> (lunchtime :) brb)
22:30:36 <hsn> enjoy ur launch
22:32:50 <rust_collector> lunch, haha
22:33:20 <rust_collector> I am done working, and back home. and I feel that is ok
22:39:55 Join: steve30 ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
22:40:13 <rust_collector> why would I connect the input of that to a car battery?
22:41:09 <K> for shits and giggles!
22:50:20 <Ysjoelfir> rusty, can you explain why you say lunch (lunsj) to breakfast? I never understood.
22:50:37 <rust_collector> I don't
22:50:54 <Ysjoelfir> You don't say that or you can't explain?
22:51:24 <rust_collector> I can not explain, because I do not say lunsj when I am talking about frokost
22:52:25 <Ysjoelfir> seems legit
22:52:32 <rust_collector> so, we have had a bit of weather here
22:53:25 <rust_collector> there is a truck that has... somehow fallen over on its side, on the ferry. Or "lost balance" as the newspaper person wrote
22:53:40 <Ysjoelfir> how does that happen oO
22:55:22 <rust_collector> well, you use an unstable ferry, and an unstable truck, then you load it all wrong, and put all that stuff out there in the waves
22:56:24 <Ysjoelfir> that... sounds somehow logicaly
23:00:48 <rust_collector> they have places to chain down the trucks, but I do not think they have ever used those on this boat
23:00:55 <steve30> I went to the gym this morning. I feel better for it. I've been a bit stuck at home for the last few weeks.
23:01:20 <rust_collector> gym
23:01:26 <rust_collector> oh yes
23:01:31 <rust_collector> I remember that
23:02:52 <rust_collector> If i get a job where I do even less than now, I think I have to give up, and go to the gym
23:05:01 <rust_collector> how long does it take to get to the gym, from your home?
23:05:58 <steve30> by bike about 45 minutes. By Bus, 30 minutes, plus 10 minutes walk to the bus stop.
23:06:40 <rust_collector> hmm, ok. that is like a second workout
23:06:49 <steve30> yup
23:07:28 <rust_collector> So I guess you hate yourself on the leg days when you did ride your bike?
23:09:38 <steve30> nah
23:09:59 <rust_collector> no? well... uhm
23:10:12 <rust_collector> something is not right
23:12:38 <MrMobodies> Hello. yes.. something is not right. I have got a bad cold.
23:13:02 <rust_collector> great! congratulations
23:13:09 <MrMobodies> I can't lie down. Too much pressure in head.
23:13:32 <MrMobodies> Go out in the cold. pressure drops but I feel uncomfortable
23:14:02 <MrMobodies> No gym around here so I am going to get some weights.
23:14:48 <rust_collector> people give away old pianos, they have a lot of weight
23:15:14 <MrMobodies> That's an idea... I have got space.
23:15:39 <MrMobodies> I have been lifting up lead acid batteries and using a bike that needs a lot of service
23:15:41 <rust_collector> actual weights are expensive
23:16:28 <MrMobodies> I wouldn't pay full price for them
23:16:37 <rust_collector> no ok
23:16:59 <steve30> When I started doing some weight lifting years ago to help my dodgy shoulder, I used a camera lens, then progressed to a small lead acid battery
23:17:01 <MrMobodies> I have seen them down bootsales but they're a long a way away where I moved.
23:17:38 <rust_collector> ooof, shoulders are the worst things
23:17:38 <MrMobodies> I have a few 12v 7a
23:19:12 <steve30> My dodgy hip seems to cause more problems than my shoulder does these days.
23:19:19 <steve30> In fact my shoulder has been fine recently
23:19:50 <MrMobodies> I did some years ago trip up on a pothole
23:19:54 <rust_collector> well, that is good, I am just saying a shoulder joint is a weird design.
23:20:19 <MrMobodies> after wearing the boot,I had 6 months of cramps, muscel spasms because of the single boot.
23:20:42 <MrMobodies> I could only stand up not lie down
23:20:56 <rust_collector> oh, so the same as now
23:21:04 <MrMobodies> went into physiotherapy and some could stand but then as least they could sleep
23:22:38 <Ysjoelfir> I had problems with my back giving me pain every now and then after sitting for to long. changed to barefoot shoes, now I don't have that problem anymore (well, at least it reduced from daily pain to once a week..)
23:22:52 <MrMobodies> My second phone line has cut out again. I just hope when the engineer gets here the fault will still show.
23:23:25 <rust_collector> barefoot shoes...
23:24:34 <MrMobodies> it was a single shoe. I wanted another one as it was an inch big and asked if that would cause me problem when I broke my foot in the pothole. They insisted it will be fine.
23:24:51 <MrMobodies> instead of plaister of paris
23:28:21 <rust_collector> when I broke my foot, They decided my regular shoes with an alloy sole in it would be enough. that was interesting
23:28:29 <Ysjoelfir> yeah, barefoot shoes :) sounds strange, but that is actually a thing.
23:29:13 <rust_collector> that is like a hoverboard. it does not hover, and it is not a board either
23:29:42 <Ysjoelfir> well, a barefoot shoe is at least a shoe.
23:29:48 <Ysjoelfir> but you are not barefoot, yes.
23:30:06 <MrMobodies> did they give you two or one shoe for your broken foot?
23:30:37 <rust_collector> just one, it was just a 2-3mm thick piece of aluminum
23:30:54 <rust_collector> and I had shoes already
23:31:20 <MrMobodies> The one I had was like an inch tall
23:31:36 <K> aluminium shoes?
23:31:37 <MrMobodies> when I stopped wearing it my should looked like it was
23:31:38 <K> wat
23:31:38 <rust_collector> yeah, well, I used my regular shoes, so...
23:31:41 <MrMobodies> unbalanced
23:31:54 <MrMobodies> when it put back on it was level
23:32:12 <MrMobodies> that was when I had a the muscle cramps a day after I stopped using it
23:32:27 <MrMobodies> I could stand with little pain
23:32:31 <MrMobodies> sit down with some pain
23:32:41 <MrMobodies> lie down and the pain gets worse
23:32:48 <MrMobodies> I had to sleep in a car seat for a week
23:32:50 <rust_collector> K, no, an aluminium sole, to put inside a shoe
23:32:56 <MrMobodies> oh
23:33:13 <rust_collector> rust my regular shoes
23:33:18 <rust_collector> or just
23:33:27 <rust_collector> maybe with rust
23:33:35 <steve30> Ysjoelfir, I pondered getting some barefoot shoes. Never did though.
23:33:43 <Ysjoelfir> NOOOOOOOO! The great god of Pulsonix is done generating the 3D Preview... but I missed the checkbox "export .STEP while generating" :'( Now i have to do it again.... narf.
23:34:04 <Ysjoelfir> steve30, try them, you either love the feeling or hate it :)
23:34:07 <rust_collector> It is done, except I forgot to start it
23:34:33 <Ysjoelfir> basically. now it just shows me the rendered model in its preview window without any way to save a step file
23:34:43 <steve30> It usually feels pleasant walking with no shoes. Until I find the surface is too hot or too cold or too rough
23:34:45 <steve30> etc
23:35:17 <rust_collector> I did watch a show about the load on your knees, iIrc, when running in shoes, and without. it was pretty interesting, and it did make a huge difference
23:35:38 <MrMobodies> Barefoot shoes, is that what runners use? I once had a shoe like that and it hurt me in the back of my foot
23:36:04 <MrMobodies> I could feel the metal digging in the top
23:36:33 <MrMobodies> It was metal and they had spikes to grip the grass.
23:37:22 <Ysjoelfir> then it could be something for you, steve30. that was what I noticed, too. I love walking barefoot, but out on the streets with al the dirt and debris.. not so much.
23:37:30 <Ysjoelfir> MrMobodies no, it's a different thing
23:37:40 <rust_collector> spikes does not sound like anything barefoot-ish
23:38:40 <MrMobodies> https://duckduckgo.com/?q=barefoot+shoes&t=h_&ia=images&iax=images
23:38:54 <Ysjoelfir> it's basically a shoe with a very soft, thin sole that doesn't constrict any movement of the foot. you feel the ground without touching it and your foot can move freely.
23:39:17 <MrMobodies> so it is firm
23:39:21 <Ysjoelfir> but you must (or should) learn how to walk in those. regular shoes have made us walk on the rear end of the shoes, which is not what evolution wanted^^
23:39:26 <rust_collector> so it is a bag
23:39:52 <MrMobodies> I'll see if I can get hold of one
23:39:53 <rust_collector> a foot bag, that is nice
23:40:25 <rust_collector> https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=http%3A%2F%2F2.bp.blogspot.com%2F-CdPbICLO63A%2FT4z6To91WrI%2FAAAAAAAAFOI%2FuGG3S30R83Q%2Fs1600%2Fcrazy-shoes3.jpg&f=1&nofb=1
23:40:28 <Ysjoelfir> right now I wear those. don't mind the german text, but the pictures show the amount of "softness" of those. http://gruenwiegras.blogspot.com/2016/06/immer-barfu-unterwegs-mit-barfuschuhen.html
23:40:55 <MrMobodies> That could surprise a few walkers
23:41:10 <Ysjoelfir> xD nice one rust
23:41:57 <rust_collector> we had a plumber, who was always barefoot. he was also crazy, and a pretty hardcore alcoholic
23:42:18 <rust_collector> but yeah, he was barefoot in snow and mud and shit
23:42:40 <rust_collector> I guess you get used to it
23:43:00 <Ysjoelfir> I also have those, but it isn't cold enough to wear them everyday. https://www.zaqq.de/expeq-bash-waterproof/
23:43:13 <rust_collector> wth? vegan shoes?
23:43:27 <Ysjoelfir> yeah, i thought so, too. but I don't care.
23:43:44 <MrMobodies> The problem with me...I am too lazy to tie shoe laces. So I have the velcro straps.
23:44:01 <Ysjoelfir> it's a good shoe, no matter if its made from real or artificial leather. though I would have prefered real leather
23:44:33 <Ysjoelfir> MrMobodies, the ones I wear right now are so soft that I don't untie them... I'm lazy, too. that's why I don't wear the winter boots right now
23:44:59 <rust_collector> I have not tied a shoe in... decades
23:45:11 <rust_collector> well, when I got to sunerals and such
23:45:12 <MrMobodies> I find I spend more time tying them up when they become loose
23:45:15 <rust_collector> funerals
23:45:20 <MrMobodies> than the trip itself
23:45:32 <rust_collector> well, tie them properly
23:45:47 <MrMobodies> I also had someone do it for me, then it comes apart
23:45:58 <MrMobodies> no others complain so it is me
23:47:04 <Ysjoelfir> I have a double knot on those... works for me
23:47:15 <rust_collector> tie them nice, and just a little drop of superglue
23:47:48 <MrMobodies> oh those. I have tried double knot and it becomes a nightmare to undo. I just can't tie shoe laces.
23:48:23 <Ysjoelfir> well, I don't need to undo those. I just slip in and out
23:48:24 <MrMobodies> I do a knot but they seem to unloosen as I am walking.
23:48:25 <rust_collector> then just don't undo them
23:48:42 <MrMobodies> I think I took them out as I was tripping on them
23:48:46 <rust_collector> well, I guess we use different shoes
23:48:49 <MrMobodies> and I chanfed to velcro
23:49:09 <rust_collector> I can not find shoes with velcro
23:49:49 <MrMobodies> https://www.chums.co.uk/Products/MJ367/mens-cushion-walk-touch-fasten-shoe?
23:49:52 <MrMobodies> it is a bit like that
23:49:57 <MrMobodies> the strap is velcro
23:50:18 <MrMobodies> It stretches too which means I don't have to loosen/unloosen it.
23:51:26 <rust_collector> do they have them in grownup sizes too?
23:51:35 <MrMobodies> oh yes
23:51:48 <MrMobodies> wide foot for my feet at Clarks shoes.
23:52:04 <K> a widefoot
23:52:18 <MrMobodies> my feet are wide
23:52:40 <MrMobodies> so a bigger size will fit but too much of space
23:52:46 <rust_collector> Mine are not very wide, but they are... high?
23:52:49 <MrMobodies> so they call it is a wide fit size
23:53:00 <rust_collector> right.
23:53:02 <MrMobodies> the shoe isn't long just extra wide
23:53:55 <rust_collector> I have problems, because most shoes that look normal stop at eu size 46, whatever that is in uk/us
23:54:38 <Ysjoelfir> Welcome to my world. which size do you need?
23:54:50 <rust_collector> 48
23:55:00 <Ysjoelfir> same here. sometimes 47 fits
23:55:15 <MrMobodies> I f25.5 by 10cm
23:55:18 <rust_collector> yeah, I think I need a 47.5, but that is not a thing
23:55:43 <MrMobodies> for many years until I found those it was a burden on me
23:55:56 <Ysjoelfir> a friend of mine had 56.... in school year 10. so that would be... 16 years old
23:56:16 <rust_collector> yeah, some people are deformed
23:56:29 <MrMobodies> 56 is big?
23:56:55 <Ysjoelfir> 56 is very big.
23:56:56 <rust_collector> 56 is probably similar to uk size 18 or 20 or something
23:57:27 <Ysjoelfir> he had to go to a shoemaker for every shoe he needed as you can't buy that size normals
23:58:41 <MrMobodies> Clarks Flexright uk 8.5 us 9.5 eu 42.5 cn 260(3.0) Made in Vietnam
23:58:55 <MrMobodies> oops Clarks Flexlight
23:59:33 <rust_collector> you could probably sit in a size 56, and float around on a lake
