00:11:23 <Ysjoelfir> it smells like warm resistor. I like that smell.
00:14:45 <K> but how does it taste?
00:15:08 <Ysjoelfir> 'I would prefer not to lick it
00:16:01 <K> maybe the dep manager wants to
00:16:35 <Ysjoelfir> you mean I should shove his face into the case? could be fun. for me. :)
00:32:16 <DHess_US> 90C is pushing it but some power resistors are made to operate that hot or hotter.
00:33:49 <Ysjoelfir> just to be clear: we're not talking about those pesky 0207 resistors or the like. more like big lumps of cement-resistors
00:34:18 <Ysjoelfir> or even the golden 25W aluminium heatsink-casing things
01:08:01 <rust_collector> aaah, morning "humans"
01:13:16 <Ysjoelfir> hi rusty
01:13:43 <rust_collector> hola
01:14:18 <rust_collector> hmm, you people have used almost all the letters, I see
01:14:59 <Ysjoelfir> missing J, N, Q, T, U, V, W
01:15:33 <rust_collector> ßøöå
01:16:25 <Ysjoelfir> don't forget ü and ä
01:17:33 <rust_collector> yes, sorry, I just use y for ü so... I have no reason to remember it
01:17:57 <Ysjoelfir> and for ä... you have æ, don't you?
01:18:03 <rust_collector> yup
01:18:52 <Ysjoelfir> yeah! I'm intelligent!
01:19:22 <rust_collector> intelli..something
01:19:43 <rust_collector> that sounds so much better in swedish
01:20:25 <Ysjoelfir> how does it sound there?
01:20:30 <rust_collector> intelegent. I am not sure what legent means, but inte means not. so you would be not legent
01:22:29 <Ysjoelfir> nice^^
01:27:51 <rust_collector> I think I should try vi(m) again. I can not remember much of it
01:28:39 <K> ŽŽŽŽŽ!!!!
01:44:42 <Ysjoelfir> what is that supposed to be?
01:44:52 <rust_collector> czech
01:45:27 <rust_collector> it means sausage in polish
01:45:34 <Ysjoelfir> XD
01:45:46 <Ysjoelfir> Pølse!
01:46:46 <rust_collector> I have been looking at smaller vans for some time now. I wonder if I might end up buying a transporter. I have always hated them slightly, but...
01:49:25 <Ysjoelfir> didn't you want to get a MB100?
01:49:39 <rust_collector> well, sort of yes, but...
01:50:04 <rust_collector> they do not exist up here, and I am not going to pay to import THAT
01:50:21 <K> it's Latvian
01:50:33 <rust_collector> yeah, I think I said that
01:50:35 <K> but we took some inspiration czech
01:50:44 <rust_collector> same same
01:50:48 <hsn93> واووو
01:50:58 <rust_collector> 999|9
01:51:02 <rust_collector> close
01:51:06 <hsn93> ههه
01:51:09 <rust_collector> keep trying
01:51:16 <hsn93> ه = هــــــه
01:51:38 <hsn93> ماتقدر عليي :(
01:51:41 <hsn93> now ?
01:52:02 <rust_collector> eeh, no. maybe there is something wrong with my confuser
01:52:17 <hsn93> what font u guys use
01:52:32 <hsn93> because i've to change to arial but its not good
01:52:38 <rust_collector> I have no idea. whatever came installed
01:53:09 <hsn93> Consolas ?
01:54:29 <rust_collector> Noto Sans Regular, it says? (10.5)
01:55:31 <hsn93> hmm , i dont have that.. ok i changed to (monospace) now i can see the chars ..
01:56:26 <hsn93> so arabic letters get linked and shape change in the words
01:57:16 <hsn93> م = ممم ---------- ص = صصص ------------- ش = ششش ---- ج = ججج --- etc
01:57:34 <hsn93> this is one followed by same letter 3 times ^
01:57:57 <K> https://imgur.com/a/Dt5mDSv
01:58:16 <hsn93> nah thats not right

01:58:52 <K> added another screenshot
01:59:33 <hsn93> where
01:59:34 <K> right-to-left is wrong for me then
02:00:31 <hsn93> im not sure what is wrong, i usually suffer in movies subtitles

02:18:45 Join: Lemon ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
02:19:02 <Lemon> I feel like I went through time D:
02:19:28 <Lemon> like I closed my eyes and openned them 4 hours later
02:22:36 <Ysjoelfir> :O oh god lemon, you should patent that principle!
02:22:56 <Lemon> yeah ? I might be onto something !
02:27:18 <Ysjoelfir> otoh, if you patent it, in 10 days there will be an asian company selling your invention
02:29:37 <Lemon> thats the main issue :/ speaking of that ! I was wondering
02:30:32 <Lemon> do you think a current somewhat decent lab psu, like rigol, siglent etc is much better or around the same, noise wise compared to an old one like sodilec, gossen konstanter, etc ?
02:31:01 <Lemon> has technology much evolved in that area ? or is it pretty much the same, as now most psu are switch modes ones anyway ?
02:34:07 <Ysjoelfir> I would say in terms of PSUs it's pretty much a question of personal preference. what mostly evolved was the user interface
02:34:16 <Ysjoelfir> also, many modern PSUs are switchers
02:34:28 <Ysjoelfir> which is perfectly fine for many uses, but not for every use case
02:34:38 <Lemon> yeah not for analog uses
02:34:44 <Ysjoelfir> depends
02:34:56 <Ysjoelfir> sensitive analog, yes. but ALL analog... no
02:35:21 <Lemon> so if I were to want a noise-less psu, an old linear one could do the trick ? and price wise, it will be a much better move than buying a 300 euros chinese one ?
02:36:24 <Ysjoelfir> I would say so, yes. I personally use several linear PSUs in the lab and one switcher. meanwhile on most designs I build I prefer switching PSUs
02:36:42 <Lemon> yeah more efficient, smaller
02:37:09 <Lemon> I will still use my switch mode one for things where I don't care about ripple/noise, but I do want a precise linear one]
02:38:31 <Ysjoelfir> why does it need to be "precise"?
02:43:14 Quit: hsn93 ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
02:46:34 <Lemon> well I'd like to be able to measure small voltages/current while playing around, and I like the idea of having the lowest possible noise :>
02:49:09 <rust_collector> hmm, that is weird. I prefer my noise as loud as I can get it
02:50:15 <Lemon> https://www.leboncoin.fr/equipements_industriels/1682286928.htm/ I found this old boi
02:50:45 <Lemon> not looking really good but heh, at that price I don't ask too much !
02:51:16 <Lemon> compared to my 50 euros switch mode chinese model, do you think it will be much better noise/ripple wise ?
02:52:26 <rust_collector> looks pretty sexy to me. But I have no idea
02:52:42 <Lemon> its a good ol linear model
02:54:08 <rust_collector> I like the way this thing looks: https://www.leboncoin.fr/vi/1730447944.htm/
02:54:25 <rust_collector> I wonder if it is just that it has the second meter...
02:54:43 <Lemon> its sexy :>
02:57:33 <Lemon> https://www.leboncoin.fr/bricolage/1679182961.htm/
02:57:39 <Lemon> sodilec seems to be a nice brand
02:57:45 <rust_collector> https://www.leboncoin.fr/equipements_industriels/1730529472.htm/
02:58:20 <Lemon> I do have some bigass trannys :>
02:58:31 <rust_collector> kinky
03:00:34 <rust_collector> that one looks like it has been very nice. do you need more than 1.2a? I guess, if you do, it would probably not be as sensitive, usually?
03:07:40 <Lemon> honestly I don't need a ton, if its really worth it precision wise I could do with that yeah
03:07:59 <Lemon> https://www.leboncoin.fr/bricolage/1737757815.htm/
03:08:00 <rust_collector> I mean, it is double, and stuff
03:08:03 <Lemon> I saw this one too
03:09:05 <rust_collector> hmm, yes. nice. I have no idea if any of these are any good, but that looks neat, it is also 4 times the price of the first one
03:10:34 <Ysjoelfir> it's a tracking psu, which is nice
03:10:50 <rust_collector> 2.5 channel, lol
03:12:10 <rust_collector> that is one of those things that I would buy, just because I like the way it looks.

03:26:42 <Lemon> I'll ask the dude how much is he willing to sell it with shipping :>
03:27:06 <rust_collector> how far away is it?
03:27:27 <Lemon> 3-4 hours by car :/
03:27:39 <rust_collector> oh ok
03:27:56 <Lemon> but first I wanted to focus on a waveform generator :>
03:28:02 <rust_collector> drive faster?
03:28:03 <rust_collector> ok
03:28:08 <Lemon> haha well
03:28:13 <rust_collector> FOCUS!!!
03:28:21 <Lemon> yes yes yes
03:30:36 <Lemon> that would cost like 12-15 euros in shipping
03:30:48 <Lemon> if he accepts to take down the price by 15-20 euros that could be a pretty nice deal
03:31:44 <rust_collector> well, shipping is expensive for bricks and boat anchors. I would be ok with the price as it is too
03:32:00 <Lemon> yeah its nice deal
03:32:04 <rust_collector> I just have too much money
03:34:39 <Lemon> https://www.leboncoin.fr/bricolage/1736657540.htm/ I wanted to buy this one
03:36:37 <rust_collector> ok, why is it still listed there?
03:36:52 <Lemon> how so ?
03:36:55 <Lemon> I don't understand
03:36:59 <rust_collector> looks cute, for being a 1987
03:37:13 <Lemon> yeah and theres some neat functions
03:37:15 <rust_collector> you wanted to buy it... it is for sale... why is it still for sale?
03:37:25 <Lemon> haaa well you know people take ages to answer :>
03:37:33 <Lemon> its been two days I messaged the dude
03:37:39 <Lemon> people suck for that here
03:37:50 <Lemon> most dont want to send items, they only want cashhh etc
03:37:54 <Lemon> I pay by paypal or nothing
03:38:05 <Lemon> or cash if its near me but it never happens
03:38:12 <Lemon> interesting things are far, thats a constant
03:38:16 <rust_collector> you need to send someone to knock on his door...
03:38:18 <rust_collector> yes
03:40:44 <Lemon> but yeah if I can get those two items, I'll have anice base to work on some projects, and learn properly by being able to see things
03:41:06 <Lemon> measure things, see waveforms, generate some, use a precise psu etc

03:56:30 <Lemon> pretty nice lab !
03:56:45 <Lemon> hoooo you found the manual thanks !
03:57:28 <rust_collector> probably more than twice your age
03:58:41 <Lemon> 0,5mv noise/ripple
03:58:44 <Lemon> sounds correct honestly
03:59:42 <K> selenium rectifiers in in iirc
03:59:59 <K> have not opened it up yet
04:00:35 <rust_collector> guy on the forum said some things about these things...

04:02:09 <Lemon> ha but thats the D version
04:02:17 <Lemon> I don't know if internals are the same
04:03:22 <rust_collector> no, but maybe keep it in mind, I guess
04:03:41 <Lemon> its still a nice one im sure
04:03:50 <Lemon> I actually prefer it without the digital display

04:08:20 <K> eh?
04:09:21 <Lemon> we found our missing cat !
04:09:48 <Lemon> he just came back to the attic somehow, he looks a bit afraid so we will give him a break
04:09:49 <Ysjoelfir> Just kidding K, the network wide banlist had my yesterday IP on it's index
04:09:58 <Ysjoelfir> nice :) gratz orange!
04:10:10 <Ysjoelfir> oh, you wanted to see the tube collection, didn't you?
04:10:26 <Lemon> yess :D
04:15:02 <Ysjoelfir> its uploading
04:15:10 <Lemon> thanks :>
04:16:09 <Ysjoelfir> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Bc2wZ8cF36BsEePfRkw4Xh2aormX0nFb/view?usp=sharing the tooooobs
04:16:29 <rust_collector> BOOBS!!=!!???
04:16:31 <rust_collector> oh
04:16:36 <Lemon> hoooo theres a fair lot of them !
04:16:42 <Ysjoelfir> and the PSU from my dad. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Bb80nFbMmkWeHkNpBanYynmZMIRs_SJz/view?usp=sharing
04:16:48 <Ysjoelfir> sadly no boobs rusty :(
04:17:00 <Ysjoelfir> yes, aroiund 1700 when i last made an index
04:17:10 <Lemon> its looking pretty good !
04:17:12 <rust_collector> Nah, I guess that is ok, they do not keep very well on a shelf
04:17:12 <Lemon> wow :O
04:18:24 <K> Ysjoelfir: https://imgur.com/a/AcWyM4E - psu on left is from my dad
04:18:48 <Ysjoelfir> wow, nice beefy case
04:18:56 <Ysjoelfir> well, nice gear all together :D
04:18:58 <K> selenium rectifiers
04:19:14 <Ysjoelfir> uaah
04:19:21 <Ysjoelfir> you know how we call those in germany?
04:19:23 <K> 30V/3A
04:19:34 <K> how do you call them?
04:19:37 <Ysjoelfir> thats pretty usefull :)
04:19:54 <K> sentimental value
04:20:58 <rust_collector> sentimentalen wert
04:21:17 <rust_collector> in german, maybe, I think
04:22:20 <K> dunno how "boat anchor" would be in german
04:22:29 <K> not that i have a boat
04:22:48 <Ysjoelfir> well, there is a german word "Seele", meaning soul. Selenium is "Selen". Rectifier is "Gleichrichter". Gleich in german means shortly and a "Richter" is someone who judges or executes someone. So... Its like Soul judge
04:23:00 <K> hehe
04:23:05 <Ysjoelfir> also, there is a second version. If you split "Gleichrichter" into three words it becomes "Gleich riecht er" which translates to "he will be smelling soon"
04:23:27 <K> haha
04:23:40 <Ysjoelfir> and sentimental value would be sentimentaleR wert rusty. so nearly perfect :)
04:23:41 <rust_collector> Ok, I will just use some diodes
04:23:53 <K> it doesn't smell, humms a bit though
04:24:01 <Ysjoelfir> a boat anchor is... well... I don't know, I use the word in german, too.
04:24:20 <rust_collector> ok, I am sorry that I mangled your language like that. I will do that again
04:24:26 <Ysjoelfir> it may not be smelling now, but it will be soon ;)
04:24:31 <Ysjoelfir> thanks, I appreciate that :P
04:30:59 <Ysjoelfir> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtavBdtZk2o aaaaah, those russians
04:31:02 <Ysjoelfir> how cute is that thing XD
04:31:34 <rust_collector> well, it is one of the cutest old style transits...
04:32:06 <Ysjoelfir> but watch what they do with it^^
04:32:13 <rust_collector> no
04:32:20 <Ysjoelfir> I mean, I don't understand why you would to that, BUT.... it's cute
04:32:24 <rust_collector> I have seen it
04:33:24 Quit: Lemon ([email protected]) Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client
04:33:34 <rust_collector> Meh, some people have a kind of brain damage. It is a pretty popular thing to do, but yeah, it is pretty pointless. Now, if they just took out a meter or so...that would be cool
04:35:06 <Ysjoelfir> interesting fact: one of my work colleges is from novosibirsk where those guys are from, too. he says it's not all to uncommon to see such strange things on the road there
04:35:57 <rust_collector> mmkay
04:36:37 <rust_collector> its a looong walk to novosibirsk, laaaa laaaa laaaa
04:36:45 <rust_collector> (guitar sounds)
04:37:05 <Ysjoelfir> :P
04:37:52 <rust_collector> or maybe accordion and clapping hands sound
04:39:51 <Ysjoelfir> lol. in the next video they drive that thing around town like a regular bus
04:40:06 <Ysjoelfir> peoples faces are brilliant
04:40:24 <rust_collector> just wait until you see the real bus drivers
04:40:48 <Ysjoelfir> lol XD just saw him
04:41:28 <Ysjoelfir> i bet they were thinking like "I would love to drive that thing."
04:42:15 <rust_collector> if I had to drive grumpy old people around all day, I would love one of those no seat buses
04:43:27 <Ysjoelfir> absolutely
04:49:20 <rust_collector> I have managed to not get the bus drivers license. I am not getting it, ever
04:50:06 Join: Lemon ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
04:50:07 <Ysjoelfir> I actually thought about getting it. but more to have tha license to drive a bus than to... drive a bus with people in it
04:50:21 <Lemon> alright the dude with the lab psu accepts to take the price down by 10 euros
04:50:27 <Lemon> and theres 12.5 euros of shipping
04:50:51 <rust_collector> I can drive a bus, as long as there are no people in it. (and I am 99% sure you can too)
04:51:06 <rust_collector> yay! happy...ps day
04:51:36 <Ysjoelfir> sure I can. but If I am allowed is another question
04:51:43 <Ysjoelfir> gra
04:52:00 <rust_collector> if you can drive it by weight, you can
04:52:02 <Ysjoelfir> memo to myself: before shaking your bottle with tea: close the lid
04:52:09 <rust_collector> just buy your own bus
04:52:17 <Lemon> 2x 30v/2amps + a fixed 5v3amps is nice honestly
04:52:27 <Ysjoelfir> I am not allowed to do that, sadly. 3.5 tons max
04:52:37 <Ysjoelfir> that sounds like a perfect psu leomn
04:52:39 <rust_collector> I want a big bendy bus, and I am going to rip all the seats out, and just drive it to work
04:52:47 <Lemon> and I guess its possible to parrallel it to get 4 amps, or in serie to get 60v
04:53:17 <Ysjoelfir> I would do exactly that
04:53:25 <Lemon> but damn I need to think about it so it can fit on the desk :>
04:53:32 <Ysjoelfir> :P
04:53:35 <rust_collector> The manual mentioned something about series or parallel things... look it up first
04:54:53 <Lemon> well honestly even 30v2amps is enough
04:55:04 <Lemon> so that will be 85 euros or around it
04:55:25 <rust_collector> ok, how do you want to get paid?
04:55:45 <Lemon> to pay it you mean ?
04:55:52 <rust_collector> nono
04:56:02 <rust_collector> ship that thing up here!
04:56:03 <Lemon> ha xd ok ok I see !
04:56:41 <rust_collector> it is the focus you talked about
04:56:53 <Lemon> I dont get it :>
04:57:00 <rust_collector> I can see clearly now
04:57:02 <Lemon> I'm tired, if thats a decent excuse x)
04:57:18 <rust_collector> oh, stop waking up so damn early then
04:57:30 <Lemon> well the problem is those freaking tooth
04:57:37 <rust_collector> oh
04:57:39 <Lemon> they keep me awake
04:57:56 <Lemon> I have a wisdom teeth that grows perpendicular from others
04:57:59 <Lemon> to others ?
04:58:21 <rust_collector> mmh, to, I think
04:58:30 <rust_collector> well, that is not ideal
04:58:44 <Lemon> yeah, last time I ended up inconscious because of the pain
04:58:57 <rust_collector> that is one way
04:58:57 <Lemon> to give you an idea, I take 240mg of methadone everyday
04:59:07 <Lemon> (because of a previous addiction)
04:59:14 Join: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
04:59:25 <Lemon> that itself is a pretty strong antalgic, but it does nothing
04:59:25 <rust_collector> doesn't really tell me much. I know what it is, but...
04:59:28 <Ysjoelfir> wtf
04:59:34 <Kuschelpony> a curious electronican says "Hello"
04:59:41 <Ysjoelfir> Kuschelpony? :D That sounds very german to my ears
04:59:41 <Lemon> 1mg per kg is enough to kill you if you never took any opiods
04:59:45 <Lemon> hello:>
04:59:53 <Kuschelpony> Ysjoelfir, yes right
05:00:02 <Ysjoelfir> Woah, ein landsmann!
05:00:04 <rust_collector> hey mr pony
05:00:16 <rust_collector> or ms pony
05:00:34 <Kuschelpony> i prefer the ungendered version :)
05:00:34 <rust_collector> or, being in this channel, both at the same ot different times
05:00:40 <Lemon> Ripple & Noise: CV: 0.5nV(rms), 4mV(p-p); CC: 0.5nA(rms), 4mA(p-p)
05:00:51 <Lemon> thats really low
05:01:35 <Lemon> for 85 euros including shipping, it looks like a really nice deal
05:01:36 <Kuschelpony> currently this is only a visit out of curiousity but when i have finished a costume project i will continue my electronics hobby and then get mpre active here
05:01:55 <Ysjoelfir> That would be cool :)
05:02:18 <Ysjoelfir> We should make more advertisments on the forums so more people join
05:02:26 <Kuschelpony> im already a silent watcher of the eev forum since a year
05:03:40 <rust_collector> same here. I do not feel I have much to add to the forum. So I just go here and type random words and letters
05:04:09 <Kuschelpony> well the problem might be that the todays young generation does non longer know IRC or is used to completely different habits
05:05:15 <Ysjoelfir> aah, those youngsters....
05:05:26 <rust_collector> hello
05:05:30 <rust_collector> ??
05:05:46 <Ysjoelfir> hm?
05:05:57 <rust_collector> what about those me?
05:06:14 <Ysjoelfir> ah. forgot that you are just short of 12
05:06:24 <rust_collector> mmhmm
05:06:48 <Kuschelpony> i meant, im already of the middle generation and the young people i know from other parts of my life either dont know IRC at all or are fixed to smartphones
05:07:02 <Ysjoelfir> define middle generation
05:07:12 <rust_collector> he is your age
05:07:14 <Kuschelpony> the 40s
05:07:16 <rust_collector> +3
05:07:16 <Ysjoelfir> I never can't realy decide if I already reched that ir if I did not
05:07:21 <Ysjoelfir> ok, so I did not
05:07:33 <rust_collector> in 3 years you will
05:07:41 <Kuschelpony> but with a passion to collect and fix the old stuff thats more than 50 years
05:07:45 <Ysjoelfir> that means at 32 you are middle aged?
05:07:56 <rust_collector> 43
05:08:17 <Ysjoelfir> that would be in 11 years for me
05:08:23 <rust_collector> hah
05:08:27 <rust_collector> kids...
05:08:33 <Ysjoelfir> aah, come on
05:09:07 <Ysjoelfir> a psychologist actually once told me that my mental age is around 10 years older than my physical age.
05:09:54 <Ysjoelfir> what I always wonder is... does that mean that I get dementia in my 50s?
05:10:31 <rust_collector> yeah, if you see a psychologist, you probably are 10+ years older than your age
05:10:56 <rust_collector> no, you get dementia when you are 62
05:11:04 <rust_collector> october
05:12:39 <Ysjoelfir> oh. ok. good to know

05:19:10 <Kuschelpony> my next little project will be to repair and slightly mod a Monarch HAM1
05:19:15 <Ysjoelfir> while tha cat goes apeshit about a damn noodle I dropped on the floor
05:19:35 <Ysjoelfir> what do you intend to mod? :)
05:20:45 <Kuschelpony> mostly a switch between internal ferrite rod antenna, or shielded coil with input from external antenna
05:21:08 <Kuschelpony> also modifying the whole tuning stuff for two point tracking
05:21:47 <Kuschelpony> its a glorified AA5 radio on shortwave
05:24:03 <Ysjoelfir> ah, ok. so you are into RF stuff?
05:24:56 * Ysjoelfir is looking for the newly bought 3.5 to 6.3mm headphone adapters....
05:25:02 <Ysjoelfir> damn where did i put those?
05:25:11 <rust_collector> up on the shelf
05:25:32 <Ysjoelfir> nope, already looked there
05:25:45 <rust_collector> just kidding, they are thrown next to and behind the computer
05:26:00 <Kuschelpony> yes, tube stuff
05:26:34 <Ysjoelfir> i literaly just came up from under the pc desk, lookin exactly there, rusty XD
05:26:39 <Ysjoelfir> ah. another tube guy

05:35:09 <Ysjoelfir> damn I'm annoyed
05:36:03 <rust_collector> in the fridge?
05:36:48 <Ysjoelfir> I'm rather sure that that is one of the places where it is unlikely to be
05:36:58 <Ysjoelfir> otoh...
05:37:06 <Ysjoelfir> the gf already searched days for the telefone
05:37:22 <Ysjoelfir> when we noticed that the freezer doesn't usually make telephone sounds
05:38:20 <rust_collector> hmm, time for an upgrade... maybe install a little mp3 player and speaker
05:45:01 <Ysjoelfir> xD
05:50:38 <rust_collector> hmm, you should put those in many random places around the house.
05:51:10 <rust_collector> maybe put one in the water tank on your toilet, making cat sounds

06:41:20 <rust_collector> hmm, I found a pair of pliers. I can not remember these
06:41:59 <rust_collector> york, made in czechoslovakia...
06:42:18 <rust_collector> I guess they are not exactly new
06:42:26 <Lemon> speaking of pliers, I really need a pair of good sidecutters
06:42:32 <Lemon> like superknips or something
06:44:52 <Lemon> that and various banana 4mm cables, some crocodile too, of good quality
06:44:54 <Lemon> I might make my own
06:47:14 <rust_collector> you probably should.
06:52:29 <Lemon> some gold plated connectors, and quality cable
06:54:59 <Lemon> I wonder something
06:55:12 <Lemon> you know on audio amps, theres 4mm banana too
06:55:24 <Lemon> can I buy some of those kind ? https://www.amazon.fr/FosPower-Bananes-Speaker-Connectors-Haut-Parleur/dp/B06Y9129X1/ref=pd_sbs_201_t_1/258-4253929-9339311?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B06Y9129X1&pd_rd_r=9f9a53d0-a6a1-448f-96e0-48dd866fc986&pd_rd_w=WpBkw&pd_rd_wg=hDXyp&pf_rd_p=9b28d941-c13a-4c2b-b935-36854aa20020&pf_rd_r=885PTERY395294VE49Q7&psc=1&refRID=
06:55:24 <Lemon> 885PTERY395294VE49Q7
06:55:29 <Lemon> they look pretty decent
06:58:25 <rust_collector> they are probably fine. I dunno about those ones exactly, but... a 4mm plug is a 4mm plug, audio or not. They look like they have the "springy slot" sort of pin. but without the rotating piece that keeps junk in there.
06:58:48 <Lemon> ho yeah I took those as an example
06:58:56 <Lemon> for the wire, 18 awg is fine ?
06:59:18 <rust_collector> well, probably. at least for most things
07:00:07 <Lemon> https://fr.farnell.com/alpha-wire/6715-bk005/fil-eco-18awg-noir-30-5m/dp/1764953
07:01:05 <Lemon> or this instead https://fr.farnell.com/alpha-wire/3055-bk005/fil-noir-18awg-16-30awg-30-5m/dp/2290834
07:01:12 <Lemon> pvc should be better, more flexible
07:01:39 <rust_collector> pvc is not very very flexible. drain pipe is pvc.
07:01:54 <Lemon> even on cables ?
07:02:03 <Lemon> I thought it was the most flexible insulator on cables
07:02:13 <rust_collector> silicone, I guess
07:02:47 <rust_collector> pvc is like the usual cheap whatever thing cable
07:03:11 <Lemon> ho ok I might have mixed it up then
07:03:36 <coppice_> PVC is rather inflexible unless its quite warm. most flexy cables are silicone insulated
07:04:51 <coppice_> rust_collector: there are literally hundreds of types of PVC. They use especially stiff ones for pipes, and especially flexible ones for cables. They still aren't great when its cold, though
07:05:09 <Lemon> I'll go for silicone then, thanks :>
07:06:28 <Lemon> https://fr.farnell.com/tenma/76-1210/clip-crocodile-embase-4mm-fem/dp/2821790?st=crocodile I like those kind of crocodile pliers
07:06:44 <Lemon> better than the cheap ones with only a piece of heatshrink or sillicone like
07:06:47 <Lemon> that slips

07:21:04 <MrMobodies> So far this PfSense 2.5 has been stable no crashes as of yet apart from one where I turned off the WAN1 by mistake.
07:21:19 <MrMobodies> I find I cannot change gateway like I could with 2.1.5
07:21:43 <MrMobodies> but I can make another one and disable the gateway that is created automatically,
07:22:26 <MrMobodies> and no problems with the irq sharing with the hex port cards apart from a bit more cpu time being used between sharing
07:23:35 <MrMobodies> I was recommended Pfsense from a place that seems to no longer exists. It was called Gamersvault.net and I think they could no longer afford to run it.
07:23:55 <MrMobodies> that was back in 2009
07:26:28 <MrMobodies> memory usage 10% of 4044mb and I think that is a little more
07:27:24 <rust_collector> I think newer versions of any software will use more of allthethings. Well, pretty much always
07:33:03 <MrMobodies> I did have a problem with a release above 2.1.5 so I went back and I was thinking it will slow it down or lack support but in this case I am surprised this time
07:34:15 <MrMobodies> I think there was issue with one release where when I team the wans up it eventually stop working but it didn't work on the one before
07:47:42 <MrMobodies> Here some pictures https://imgur.com/a/wGwKous
08:21:36 <rust_collector> that is a lot of stuff
08:26:28 Quit: Lemon ([email protected]) Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client
08:39:19 <MrMobodies> well there's more where they came from
08:39:20 <MrMobodies> https://imgur.com/a/vi1FqRn
08:39:53 <MrMobodies> the benefits of stock piling the good stuff I find are like a form of security, when they break they're spares already there.
08:40:40 <rust_collector> hmm, interesting.
08:40:54 <rust_collector> in my case, if I have a spare, they just never ever break
08:42:04 <rust_collector> like, my car has a bad wheel bearing. it is not horrible, but it makes a little noise. but I have a new bearing, so it never gets any worse. It has been rumbling for a year or so now
08:42:41 <MrMobodies> the good things about spares too... when I want to experiment I just get them off the shelf
08:42:50 <rust_collector> yep
08:43:03 <MrMobodies> I may have customers too that that might come in handy attimes
08:44:13 <MrMobodies> Oh the yes picture, that KVM switch and laptop all prepared until I finish the firewall stuff.
08:46:25 <MrMobodies> by the time I am finished with the Pfsense firewall, they'd be a switch, I plug in a router to test and it gets a public IP address using NAT 1:1 of course from either the ones allocated from both lines, no port forwarding or messing about.
08:47:41 <MrMobodies> looking all exciting and with the 8 additional ports to play with.
09:00:51 <rust_collector> well, have fun with that. I am going to bed.
09:02:53 <MrMobodies> Thanks it also keeps me sane too.
09:03:09 <rust_collector> ehm... well...
09:03:24 <MrMobodies> when you're lonely and they're there just there
09:04:46 <MrMobodies> going to bed? is it late in your place?
09:04:55 <MrMobodies> It is about 10pm
09:05:05 <MrMobodies> in England
09:05:20 <rust_collector> yeah, it is just 1 hour difference here
09:05:26 <rust_collector> so 11
09:06:54 <rust_collector> but I am getting up around 6, so I guess it is time for a nap. I have my "late" shift tomorrow, 7.30 to 7 or so
09:08:15 <MrMobodies> so you work overnight
09:08:17 <MrMobodies> sometimes
09:08:51 <rust_collector> not in the last year or so. my early shift starts at 3.30
09:09:22 <MrMobodies> until I find work, I am up in the night and sleep in the day
09:09:50 <MrMobodies> I spend my time learning off Youtube
09:11:14 <rust_collector> yeah, and when you do find a job, you will be up too much in the night, and spend your sleeping time at work, so when you get home, you are completely useless, then you try to stay awake so you can go sleep, but end up on youtube of reading all of wikipedia, and then you have to go to work again
09:12:12 <MrMobodies> oh yes that happened to me many years
09:12:25 <MrMobodies> it was like an habit
09:13:19 <MrMobodies> but it was the excitement of getting things up and working and bring them in that kept me awake and with the help with coffee.
09:13:47 <MrMobodies> also when it makes people at work happy

12:30:01 <DHess_US> Just had the electric element in my oven short out. The conversation went "Why don't you fix that tomorrow?" "I'm hungry now."
12:30:23 <steve30> :(
12:30:54 <DHess_US> The electric element turned into an arc welder so it was pretty spectacular until I shut the power off.
12:32:33 <DHess_US> Took the bottom element from the bottom oven to fix it but the overload broke the oven mode switch.
12:32:46 <T3sl4> yummy
12:33:25 <DHess_US> So now BAKE doesn't work. But TIMED BAKE works so I set the timer so it is on and it will stay on because the clock is broken anyway.
12:34:29 <DHess_US> Hmm, fish sticks flavored with arc welding fumes ...
12:34:37 <T3sl4> set it to 4:20, should do

13:24:13 <DHess_US> It takes someone who loves cars to include something like that.
13:24:19 <DHess_US> I mean, I recognized it.
13:24:52 <DHess_US> That is unusual attention to detail for a movie.
13:27:40 <coppice_> car makers put a lot of money into get actual car door sounds right. it seems its a big selling point for cars, especially luxury ones

13:28:45 <DHess_US> I don't think they did that with the original Mustang doors. They sort of rattle.
13:28:58 <DHess_US> Which is what caught my eye when I heard it in the movie.
13:29:03 <DHess_US> err, caught my ear
13:29:25 <DHess_US> My father has a 64.5 with the Tripower HP 289
13:29:31 <steve30> WHy do people get obsessed with those hand sanitizer things? What's wrong with soap and water?
13:29:32 <coppice_> ah, but did they rattle more or less than similar cars of the same era?
13:29:37 Quit: noobor ([email protected]) Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client
13:29:51 <DHess_US> coppice_, they rattled uniquely.
13:29:56 <DHess_US> Which is why I recognized it.
13:30:05 <coppice_> steve30: soap doesn't sanitise effectly, and isn't as easy to use on the move
13:30:19 <DHess_US> What? Soap is a great sanitizer.
13:30:52 <DHess_US> Reducing surface tension and emulsifying is a great way to destroy pathogens.
13:30:54 <steve30> I have never used a hand sanitiser, and it has never resulted in me being ill.
13:31:30 <coppice_> if you want to sanitise your hands for any medical purpose you need to used proper medical sanitising soap and several minutes of scrubing

13:31:40 <DHess_US> Hand sanitizer is more useful for where you don't have room for soap and water.
13:31:59 <DHess_US> Yet if you did the same thing with just "soap", it would be 90% as effective.
13:32:12 <coppice_> steve30: have you never had an infection?
13:32:50 <steve30> Yes, I've had infections, but its impossible to say whether they were directly the cause of not using hand sanitiser.
13:33:29 <coppice_> so, how can you say the non use of hand sanitiser has not resulted one or more of your infections?
13:33:42 <steve30> educated guess

13:34:44 <DHess_US> Because the people who advertise and sell hand sanitizer have their own agenda.
13:34:59 <steve30> I do wash my hands with soap though
13:35:10 <coppice_> SARS and avian flu did wonders for hand sanitiser sales in HK

13:36:15 <DHess_US> I bet. Like I said, hand sanitizer has its place where you don't have access to soap and water.
13:37:52 <coppice_> I expect HK is back to the old regime this week. Plastic sheets taped over elevator button panels, replaced daily; lots of places like washrooms wiped with steriliser hourly; etc
13:39:56 <DHess_US> Not a bad idea but mostly, um, epidemic theater?
13:40:03 <coppice_> SARS created some fantastic buying opertunities for property in HK :)
13:41:03 <steve30> Hospitals here have loads of hand sanitizer. When I've been in a hospital I just wash my hands in the sink after I've been to the toilet

13:41:42 <DHess_US> In HK? If the property is worth something, the Chinese government will steal it.
13:42:20 <DHess_US> The rules are simple. Wash your hands at every opportunity. Don't touch your face.

14:35:19 <MrMobodies> I brought 5L of alcohol but not because of the Corona Virus.
14:35:25 <MrMobodies> It was to fill up my 1L bottles
14:36:01 <steve30> I have a 250ml bottle.
14:36:08 <dkudriavtsev> i'm wondering how that ebay seller managed to find pure 100% isopropyl alcohol
14:36:09 <MrMobodies> handy stuff
14:36:15 <MrMobodies> I got some too
14:36:21 <MrMobodies> no Acetone
14:36:39 <steve30> I bought one 10 years ago and just finished it the other day, so I'll need to open the new bottle next time i need some
14:36:41 <MrMobodies> I had a few accident when it spilled and moulded the plastic
14:36:57 <MrMobodies> I just spent some hours packging things up
14:37:01 <MrMobodies> I have just noticed Onebill in the letter expecting me to pay for returns
14:37:19 <MrMobodies> So I packaged the routers up one that has been here since last October
14:37:44 <MrMobodies> and sent an email requesting a repaid form and that it isn't fair to expect me to pay
14:38:04 <MrMobodies> I did ask them on the phone, no returns pack and they said not to bother sending them back
14:38:27 <MrMobodies> I got that letter last week date on 20/12/19 but the other router arrived before that
14:39:18 <MrMobodies> BT has taken soo long to sign off the job the system cancels the order and when they restore it another router gets sent out
14:39:58 <steve30> have you been sent surplus routers?
14:40:04 <MrMobodies> Yes
14:40:13 <MrMobodies> and I kept on asking if they wanted them back
14:40:28 <MrMobodies> they said to keep it and ignore emails
14:40:34 <MrMobodies> as not returns pack came
14:40:46 <MrMobodies> but he last one dated 20/12/19 came last week
14:41:16 <steve30> what routers are they? Could they be worth keeping as spares?
14:42:04 <MrMobodies> Thomson Technicolor DWA0120
14:42:28 <MrMobodies> to avoid having to find packaging and send them back, I asked how much they wanted for them
14:42:47 <MrMobodies> I was told they would have to charge RRP is which the £79.99
14:44:29 <MrMobodies> No SYSLOG, couldn't find a way to decrypt the config file, for the NTP, SYSLOG settings and turn off the port 80 which is a bit stupid?
14:45:20 <MrMobodies> you can reach router's webserver from any ip from port 80 and this was an issue with an older ADSL technicolor I came across 10 years ago.
14:45:33 <MrMobodies> time for some tea
14:46:27 <dkudriavtsev> here in the US you have telcos that have an option to use a customer supplied router, but then at the end of the service period forget that this was selected and demand that the customer send back their nonexistent router
14:46:43 <dkudriavtsev> or put in a collections charge
14:49:34 <MrMobodies> oh that's a bit bad
14:49:39 <dkudriavtsev> yes

18:43:54 <Guest|91833> hi
18:45:34 <Guest|91833> Is there anyone ?
18:46:10 <Ysjoelfir> jep, sort of
18:47:31 <Guest|91833> I wanted to some intensity variation for my grow lights. Should i do it with PWM using 555 ?
18:48:54 <Ysjoelfir> depends. is your weed sensitive to flicker?
18:49:44 <Guest|91833> strawberries ?
18:50:01 <Ysjoelfir> I'm not sure?
18:50:02 <Ysjoelfir> however
18:50:48 <hsn93> strawberry weed seems legit
18:51:03 <Ysjoelfir> to be serious: that depends very much on your grow light. how does it work, does it allow rapid switching, or does it even has a in built dimming possibility?
18:51:15 <Guest|91833> weed, ha ha
18:51:51 <Guest|91833> It doesn't have builtin dimming. We are designing on our own
18:52:22 <Ysjoelfir> you are designing the whole light, or just repurpose an existing desihn?
18:52:48 <Guest|91833> We are designing the whole PCB for the need
18:53:17 <Guest|91833> as per the number of LEDs required and umol stuff
18:57:19 <Ysjoelfir> so which topology do you intend to use?
18:57:29 <Ysjoelfir> 230V to xV for the LEDs?
18:57:38 <Ysjoelfir> switching regulator, linear supply,...?
18:58:41 <Guest|91833> thinking of 230V to xV, because the total voltage would vary than the standard supplies
18:59:16 <Ysjoelfir> and do you use a switcher or a linear supply to achieve that?

21:15:05 <Ysjoelfir> judged by their skill in maneuvering that thing it will happen soon
21:24:40 <Halcyon> I'm sorry to hear :(

21:27:51 <Ysjoelfir> oh, i'm fine, thanks :) and you?
21:28:09 <Halcyon> Yeh not bad, just making dinner
21:28:14 <Halcyon> Doing chicken kievs :)
21:28:37 <Ysjoelfir> Nice :)
21:29:06 <Ysjoelfir> My brain is always like... "wtf... dinner at 11:30?" or "he's drinking wine in the morning?".... until i realize that you are sitting on the other side of the globe
21:29:24 <Ysjoelfir> oh, speaking of wine... I found something in a local Aldi! let me upload it quickly
21:31:19 <Ysjoelfir> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BuuzIrDU9DyBUyGpSbTTzVYlQA9mMyb5/view?usp=sharing
21:31:26 <Ysjoelfir> I'm sure it can't be good at that price
21:34:23 <Halcyon> eevblog time
21:34:23 <EEVBlog> Ah shoot, Doc! We've ended up at 21:34 Sydney time.
21:34:25 <Halcyon> Yup
21:34:45 <Halcyon> You would be surprised at Aldi wine. Some of it is quite decent
21:35:03 <Halcyon> Wolf Blass is what I would consider "entry to lower-mid tier"
21:35:25 <Halcyon> But still very drinkable, usually much better than crappy house or table wine
21:35:31 <Antarez> some aldi wine is surprisingly good
21:35:45 <Antarez> I recommend the Primitivo from german aldi
21:36:46 <Halcyon> However, don't compare Aussie wines to Wolf Blass. There is *much* better out there
21:37:05 <Halcyon> My recommendation is to chill it in the fridge for 30-60 minutes before consuming, then let it breath a bit
21:37:26 <Ysjoelfir> ok? maybe I will try it as soon as the wage comes in. even though it is advertised as a dry wine and I usually don't like dry wines at all. I will give it a show :)
21:37:40 <Halcyon> Do you normally drink red or white?
21:37:48 <Lemon> hey guys, I bought the power supply ! The guy will send it this afternoon :>
21:37:55 <Halcyon> Nice Lemon
21:38:03 <Halcyon> What did you end up getting?
21:38:05 <Ysjoelfir> when I drink wine I usually prefer red.
21:38:19 <Lemon> ho and red wine, please open it and leave it a few hours in a 14-16 degrees area !
21:38:24 <Lemon> before drinking :>
21:38:38 <Halcyon> Ysjoelfir: Shiraz/Syrah is quite dry and bold. If that isn't your style, maybe go for a blend or something like a Pinot Noir which is much lighter
21:38:55 * hsn993 drinks white coffee
21:38:56 <Halcyon> Aussie reds in general are on the dryer end
21:39:25 <Lemon> haa shiet the dude just removed the page, its the topward tds 4000, in perfect shape, 2x 30v/2a outputs + a fixed 5v3 amps !
21:39:30 <Ysjoelfir> in my nongenderspecificcave I have a fridge that is about 12C (for aging my cheese :)). that should work for tempering, shouldn't it?
21:39:33 <Lemon> 83 euros with shipping
21:39:36 <Halcyon> However I do find chilling it helps. People look at me weird when I order wine with ice cubes, however don't forget, our "room temperature" is 24+ degrees C
21:39:42 <Halcyon> It's WAY too warm for red wine
21:39:48 <Lemon> yeah 12 is alright, no less id say
21:40:45 <Halcyon> Yeh any less than 10-12 reds start to loose some of their character. Still nice, especially if you don't like big, bold wines, chilling them might be a good way to start
21:42:11 <Lemon> yeah thats what we do for not so great wines, to make them drinkable :>
21:42:17 <Lemon> also heres the supply I bought https://www.valuetronics.com/product/tps4000-topward-dc-power-supply-used
21:42:22 <Lemon> I cant find a better picture
21:45:26 <Lemon> Im really happy, because if I wanted a new one with those kind of specs, the price would have been horrible
21:45:35 <Lemon> like 350-400+

22:10:32 <Ysjoelfir> I like it, too. it's a small tradition for me to eat some, everytime I go to a flea market. there is usually at least one person selling it
22:11:46 <Ysjoelfir> And I like - even though I'm usually not a fan of convenience food (and even though again, this is not meant to be convenience food) - Erbswurst. Translates to pea sausage and is basically dried and pressed pea soup tablets.
22:11:57 <Ysjoelfir> just boil that and you get a nice, rich, creamy pea soup

23:52:41 <Ysjoelfir> sounds strangely familiar, just with your hip instead of my back
