29:24 <Nothing\> koo koo ka choo
31:03 <rust_collector> you could say that
31:04 <rust_collector> I see
31:15 <Nothing\> said the blind man
31:19 <Nothing\> to his deaf son
31:25 * Ampera hugs Nothing\ 
31:26 <Ampera> <3
31:34 * Nothing\ hugs Ampera <3
31:41 <Nothing\> Ampera, did i tell you the jail related news?
31:45 <Ampera> No you did not
31:51 <Nothing\> i never have to go back!
31:55 <Ampera> gg
32:04 <Nothing\> they've extended the shutdown until august 26th
32:04 <Ampera> you just have to spend the rest of the time under home arrest?
32:09 <Nothing\> my last day is augest 23rd
32:14 <Ampera> Hah.
32:15 <Nothing\> not the rest of my time, just the weekends
32:26 <Nothing\> saturday and sunday from 9am to 5pm
32:31 <Ampera> No more adult daycare for you.
32:43 <Nothing\> so out of a 90 day sentence, i served a total of 10 days
32:45 <Ampera> and Nothing\, don't do a fucky wucky with the law plz
32:55 <Nothing\> nah i wouldn't tempt fate
33:05 <Nothing\> ima be a good boy now
33:09 <Nothing\> :)
33:12 <Ampera> <3
33:27 <Nothing\> although the other week i accidentally went out on a saturday without realizing it
33:29 <Ampera> For the first time ever I am excited for my brother's birthday
33:38 <Ampera> Because me and my grandfather bought him a really really nice phone
33:44 <Ampera> and I'm excited to give it to him
33:45 <Nothing\> i lost track of what day it was and absentmindedly walked down the street to the store on a saturday
34:00 <Nothing\> nice that's pretty awesome
34:03 <Ampera> presumably they do not have you on an anklet
34:06 <Nothing\> how old is he/will he be?
34:09 <Ampera> 15
34:13 <Nothing\> nope, no real monitoring of any sort
34:20 <Ampera> good, pretend there is
34:22 <Ampera> :P
34:39 <Nothing\> they started calling me ever week or so and just asking if i'm abiding by the conditions, that's it
34:52 <Nothing\> but other than that, they haven't even checked in on me until about a month ago
35:29 <Nothing\> the irony is the crown actually offered me a plea deal where i would have only got house arrest, but the police wouldn't allow it. they wanted me to do some sort of jail time
35:51 <Ampera> then someone ate a bat.
35:52 <Nothing\> if they'd have just aggreed to the house arrest i WOULD have an ankle monitor and more thorough check ins and monitoring
36:44 <Nothing\> but instead, i served 1 day in a holding cell during my initial admitting procedure, and 5 weekends
36:48 <Ampera> I am currently writing an intricate series of instruction manuals describing exactly how to make a piece of software misbehave
36:56 <Nothing\> actually it wasn't even 1 day in a holding cell
37:09 <Nothing\> nice, trying to reproduce bugs or something?
37:15 <Ampera> Nothing\, if it makes you feel any better I can buy you Prison Architect on steam.
37:22 <Ampera> No, trying to find them
37:36 <Nothing\> lol i actually have prison architect, though i haven't played it
37:39 <Ampera> reproducing bugs is the job of the guy who has to fix them
37:50 <Nothing\> i also have this game called the escapists 2, which seems based on prison architect
38:01 <Ampera> I'll play the normal version, and then get bored, and then I'll play the sandbox, and get bored
38:02 <Nothing\> where you have to work out ways it escape from various joils and prisons
38:13 <Nothing\> yeah i've never been big on those types of games
38:25 <Nothing\> i got this game on my switch that's like theme hospital, if you remember that game
38:33 <Nothing\> i played it for about a week and haven't touched it since
38:43 <Ampera> hah, remember
38:46 <Ampera> I do remember it, and have played it
38:48 <Ampera> but it's older than I am
38:58 <Nothing\> indeed
39:04 <Ampera> you forget I am an infantile chimplet :P
39:15 <Nothing\> man i remember playing theme park on the playstation, that game was the shit back in the day
39:22 <Nothing\> before rollercoaster tycoon
39:32 <Nothing\> i loved the first person videos of the ride
39:33 <Nothing\> s
39:47 <Nothing\> man, taht's one thing you really missed out on
39:53 <Nothing\> is the transition from 2d to 3d games
39:58 <Ampera> Not really.
40:10 <Nothing\> playing those first 3d games, it was like exploring a whole new world, a completely immersive experience
40:17 <Nothing\> even for the first gen 3d games
40:20 <Ampera> Much of my childhood was actually playing much of the same games as a kid in the 90's would have, even in almost the same order
40:23 <Nothing\> it was magical
40:28 <Nothing\> oh, nice
40:29 <Ampera> as I discovered emulation and such, since it was cheap and easy
40:43 <Nothing\> heh i still remember the first time i saw NES emulation
40:50 <Nothing\> it was on nesticle, if you ever used that
40:56 <Ampera> No, but I've heard of it
41:05 <Nothing\> it's not the greatest tbh
41:12 <Ampera> the first time I ever tried to use an emulator was a SNES emulator on a 486SX-25
41:21 <Nothing\> these days i use fceux cuz it has great debugging and hacking utilities on it
41:34 <Ampera> Nothing\, so you know how I bought a new phone?
41:47 <Nothing\> you can monitor memory addresses in real time, assemble/disassemble code, monitor the PPU and nametables etc
41:52 <Nothing\> Ampera, right
41:57 <Ampera> it can do gamecube emulation
42:02 <Ampera> like, playable gamecube emulation
42:02 <Nothing\> right on
42:06 <Nothing\> that's pretty tits
42:11 <Ampera> heck yeah
42:27 <Ampera> and with retroarch having all the emulators you'd ever want, I think I'll really enjoy making it a little portable gaming machine
42:39 <Nothing\> i have a gamecube... well not really emulator, but it's a homebrew app that plays gamecube games on my wii
42:41 <Ampera> I bought a Razer Kishi, which is a controller that snaps onto my phone
42:48 <Ampera> you mean Wii U
42:51 <Nothing\> since the wii can already play gamecube games it doesn't really need emulation
42:57 <Nothing\> nope, just a wii
43:00 <Ampera> ah, so it's just a game loader
43:05 <Nothing\> yep
43:21 <Ampera> The gamecube ROMs I have were actually ripped on a Wii
43:22 <Nothing\> it's pretty awesome cuz i never had a gamecube so i missed out on the handfulll of good games it had
43:24 <Ampera> my Wii, by me
43:35 <Ampera> all I have is wind waker and SMSS
43:37 <Nothing\> nice
43:57 <Ampera> https://www.razer.com/gaming-controllers/razer-kishi
43:59 <Nothing\> i have windwaker, but was never big on smash bros, except the one on the wii cuz it had that great single player mode
44:02 <Ampera> This is the controller I bought for my phone
44:14 <Ampera> Nothing\, not smash bros, super mario sunshine
44:17 <Nothing\> nice
44:20 <Nothing\> oh right
44:26 <Nothing\> that game's fucking hard, man
44:29 <Ampera> It is.
44:39 <Ampera> This controller, btw, plugs straight into the USB-C port onto the phone
44:41 <Ampera> and it looks really nice
44:51 <Nothing\> i played it up to a point but then i got tired of how difficult it was
45:03 <Ampera> I have it on disc
45:04 <Nothing\> that's good you got a controller, i didn't even think how the controls would work
45:12 <Ampera> Not well, is the answer
45:16 <Ampera> I hate soft controls
45:21 <Nothing\> that's one reason i never liked emulation on phones is cuz the lack of any tactile feel is just gross feeling
45:29 <Ampera> Unless a game is really designed to use the touch screen I just get annoyed trying to use it
45:37 <Nothing\> exactly
45:45 <Nothing\> you can't tell where your thumbs are at all
45:48 <Ampera> also those soft controls can damage the phone's screen
45:53 <Nothing\> really?
45:57 <Ampera> yep
45:58 <Ampera> burn-in
46:00 <Nothing\> burn-in?
46:02 <Nothing\> ah
46:05 <Nothing\> huh
46:28 <Ampera> This phone has an absolutely amazing OLED display, but I am scared shitless about burn-in
46:46 <Nothing\> you know, i've been addicted to this cilcker game i got on steam, i know i know clickers are lame, but i couldn't help but feel like it was destroying my mouse/keyboard pressing buttons so many times so aggressively
47:03 <Ampera> I have a fairly decent keyboard+mouse, so I doubt those sorts of games would hurt them
47:09 <Nothing\> especially considering i've gone through 4 different mice that wound up with button bouncing issues in the last 6 months
47:17 <Ampera> that being said, I'm planning on, some day, some time, buying a new keyboard
47:23 <Nothing\> 01
47:25 <Ampera> potentially even getting parts together and assembling my own
47:41 <Nothing\> i wound up just getting a program that lets me set up macros
47:41 <Ampera> mostly because I use very very specific switches
47:52 <Nothing\> and set up a macro to tap a few keys constantly
47:57 <Nothing\> and just leave it on over night
48:22 <Nothing\> took forfuckingever to find a program to do that though
48:43 <Nothing\> every time i searched how to make macros, it'd bring up search results for how to make your own keyboard shortcuts
48:48 <Nothing\> or hot keys to open apps
48:58 <Ampera> autohotkey is classic for that
49:03 <Ampera> I actually use it on rare occasion for my job
49:10 <Nothing\> i wound up getting... let's see
49:19 <Nothing\> hot keyboard
49:34 <Ampera> I need to figure out something to cook and eat
49:40 <Nothing\> it seems to work pretty well and has good config options
49:47 <Ampera> I have really really nice sausages
49:50 <Ampera> maybe I'll do pasta with them
49:54 <K> sausage fest!
49:56 <Nothing\> i've got a frozen mac and cheese with bacon in the microwave cooling
50:13 <Nothing\> i've never been a big fan of sausage, despite my half german blood
50:14 <Ampera> maybe I'll do some pasta with it
50:28 <Ampera> This is Italian sausage, and very very nice at that
50:36 <Nothing\> actually i really should eat, my meds are burning a hole in my stomach
50:40 <Nothing\> i'll bbiab
50:46 <Ampera> ciao
50:47 <Nothing\> gonna eat and watch adventure time
50:49 <Ampera> will get cooking
50:50 <rust_collector> that would be annoying
50:51 <Ampera> bye
50:58 <Nothing\> yeah it doesn't feel great
51:12 <Nothing\> and i have more meds to take, so i need a buffer
51:16 <rust_collector> but, when you ploink down mode meds, and they just fall out
51:27 <rust_collector> arrrgh
51:54 <rust_collector> you need haggis
57:00 <Ysjoelfir> haggis? I would like to try that
57:46 <rust_collector> I know. I was talking to the guy with a hole in his stomach
09:40 <Nothing\> there, belly's all full of medication buffering food now
09:46 <Nothing\> Ysjoelfir, i would too
09:55 <Nothing\> i tried blood pudding once, i wasn't a fan
10:00 <Nothing\> it was all dry and unpleasant
10:11 <rust_collector> ooh, then you did it wrong
10:22 <Nothing\> but the weirdest thing i ate was goat testicles
10:26 <Nothing\> curried goat testicles
10:40 <Nothing\> i lived with a persian dude once who made them and shared some with me
10:44 <Nothing\> they were actually pretty good
10:48 <rust_collector> I think I dislike eyeballs more
10:51 <Nothing\> sorta like fleshy dumplings
10:57 <Nothing\> i've never had eyeballs
11:08 <Nothing\> but i also had a stew made from a goat's head which was alright
11:16 <rust_collector> not me either, and I probably wont
11:42 <Nothing\> yeah i've seen cow eyes being dissected and that's all i think about when i think of eating eyebals
12:05 <Nothing\> that and the gelatenous vitreous humour bursting out when i bite into it
12:57 <rust_collector> yes, they make me think of strawberries or something like that
13:19 <Nothing\> i like to watch videos of various animal and people parts being dissected
13:30 <rust_collector> ok
13:31 <Nothing\> and for some reason watching a human brain being dissected actually made me hungry
13:47 <Nothing\> a lot of it actually looks like real food
13:58 <rust_collector> well, it is. but...
14:19 <Nothing\> like watching the torso of a cadaver being dissected, the various layers of abdominal muscle looked like strips of bacon
14:39 <Nothing\> if they ever found a way to make human mean in a lab, i'd totally try it
14:40 <rust_collector> how can that be
14:58 <rust_collector> you mean we are like other animals?
15:04 <Nothing\> well cuz they were just slices of muscles
15:11 <Nothing\> then sheets
15:50 <rust_collector> but I want to be special, not like other animals.
16:13 <Nothing\> i've gotta say though, the brains that did make me hungry were ones that were fixed in formaldehyde which makes them pale and stiff. i watched a rare dissection of an unfixed brain and it didn't make me hungry like the others
16:27 <Nothing\> an unfixed brain just has the consistency of a jello mold or something
16:48 <Nothing\> rust_collector, heh i remember when i realized taht humans were animals just like any other
16:53 <Nothing\> it was a very weird thought
17:06 <rust_collector> heh, I guess
18:07 <Nothing\> i alos remember when i realized that everything i experience, everything i am, my personality, my morals, the experience of my life was basically just electrical impulses modulated by chemicals
18:19 <Nothing\> that was a pretty deep realization
24:24 <Nothing\> lol i taught my cat how to play fetch last night
24:27 <Nothing\> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dR1_j_yxQQk
24:37 <Nothing\> he's only 4 months old and he's already figured it out
25:03 <rust_collector> teach it to play super mario, or program things in python
26:07 <Nothing\> actually he loves watching me play mario
26:24 <Nothing\> especially mario odyssey, but he also loves regular super mario bros too
27:03 <Nothing\> or i'll make scenes in algodoo, a 2d physics sim of balls bouncing all over in a pongesque fashion. he loves watching those
27:27 <rust_collector> that makes more sense
27:28 <Nothing\> or he really loves watching cyriak video, if you've ever seen one of his videos
27:53 <rust_collector> not afaik
28:07 <Nothing\> they're pretty good, music videos with trippy visuals
28:25 <rust_collector> oh
28:33 <Nothing\> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jX3iLfcMDCw
28:40 <Nothing\> there's one of his favorites
28:54 <Nothing\> they're actually really good videos
29:06 <Nothing\> i'm not big on music videos or music in general but i like his work
30:45 <rust_collector> I sense that he might not have much overtime on his job
31:59 <rust_collector> hmmm, charlie the unicorn....
33:06 <hsn> im not unicorn
33:15 <hsn> im unipopcorn
35:32 <Nothing\> i never really watched charlie the unicorn
35:48 <Nothing\> i think i watched one or two of them but they never really held my attention
35:49 <rust_collector> ARRRGH!
35:59 <Nothing\> they should make charle the unijunction transistor
36:52 <Nothing\> bah meds+4 hours of sleep=nodding too much
37:40 <Nothing\> i wish i could sleep longer on the days when i have to go to the clinic for my refills, but if i get there after 12 it's always so busy
38:09 <Nothing\> where if i get there at like 10am there's only maybe 1 person ahead of me, or otherwise he just sees me right away
38:58 <Nothing\> but considering i go to bed at 6-7am i don't end up with much sleep, and being loaded up with heavily sedating drugs just makes me so tired and almost narcoleptic
39:48 <Nothing\> and if i tried to have a nap, i just end up seleping until they wear off, which means waking up at like 19pm
40:13 <Nothing\> or the brunt of them wears off anyways, my one meds i can feel for upwards of 4 days after i take them
40:59 <Nothing\> actually, two of the meds will last for several days after i take them
41:29 <Nothing\> ooh actually i should make a coffee
41:37 <Nothing\> i forgot that's an option, i don't usually consume caffeine
41:59 <rust_collector> grab a spoon...
00:04 <hsn> why everybody keep telling me i have red eyes ?
00:05 <hsn> :)
00:18 <Ampera> hsn, because red eyes are cute
02:13 <Nothing\> hsn, maybe you're becoming posessed by evil demons
02:39 <Nothing\> man, i've really been getting into advance wars lately
02:49 <Nothing\> such a great series of turn based strategy games
03:06 <Nothing\> dunno which to play though, i've got 4 different ones
03:52 <Nothing\> oh yeah, my microwave's got this weird glitch to it
04:00 <Nothing\> i was wondering if any of you could explain it
04:03 <Nothing\> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6d1PR5Of9xk
04:55 * Ampera hugs Nothing\ 
04:58 <Ampera> how was your food
05:19 <Ampera> I had creamy worcestershire mushroom spaghetti with sweet italian sausage
05:31 <Nothing\> it was tasty, and more importantly buffered my meds wonderfully
05:44 <Nothing\> my stomach no longer feels like a hole's being burned into it
05:58 <rust_collector> Nothing\, it is probably a switch adjustment thing, just stop pushing the button just slightly
06:02 <Nothing\> even after the rest of my meds and my pomegranate juice, which usually makes me nauesou
06:15 <Nothing\> rust_collector, hrm
06:35 <Nothing\> it's just weird that the turn table and fan would have any connection to the button to open the door
07:06 <Ampera> mmm, pomegranate
07:17 <rust_collector> so, the door latch bar thing does not move at all?
08:18 <Nothing\> rust_collector, if i push it in just a bit, it'll turn the fan and turn table on
08:38 <hsn> this freak me out though .. as i only have one usefull eye ..
08:42 <Nothing\> but the door doesn't open
08:47 <Nothing\> hsn, how's that?
08:50 <hsn> and i use monitors a lot
09:03 <hsn> nothing\ from birth eye issue ..
09:11 <Nothing\> aw that sucks
09:18 <hsn> i see super blury from my right eye
09:26 <Nothing\> i had a friend who had to get a corneal transplant from a dead guy who donated his organs
09:27 <Ampera> My eyes are invincible, I've tortured them with displays my entire life and I only sometimes see voices in their static
09:50 <Nothing\> i've had to get glasses in my older age, but i never wear them
09:53 <Nothing\> although i should
10:38 <Nothing\> but it's not like i can't see without them. i basically equate it to the difference between SD and HD TV
10:40 <K> is the eye really red, hsn?
11:21 <rust_collector> I know snorting drugs is frowned upon down there, but i would prefer it to rubbing it into my eyes
11:42 <Nothing\> damn cat spilled my coffee and then tried to drink it
11:47 <hsn> idk, k .. i guess ..
12:08 <Ampera> ugh I have four more hours of this shit
12:11 <Ampera> AND THEN IT IS THE WEEKEND
12:23 <Ampera> AND I CAN STARE INTO A CORNER AND CONTEMPLATE THE PAIN OF IT ALL
12:23 <Nothing\> rust_collector, back in the day i used to read these trip reports on this site erowid.org that was all about drugs. trip reports being first hand accounts of peoples' experiences with drugss
12:44 <Nothing\> and this one guy wrote a report where he actually put a hit of acid under his eyelid
12:49 <Nothing\> like, the actual blotter paper
13:07 <Nothing\> i don't recall that he reported any effects other than severe irritation and redness
13:18 <hsn> hmm , from camera it look normal
13:29 <K> know i might sound bothersome, but if that is your only good eye, maybe showing it to a doctor is a good idea?
13:45 <Nothing\> K, if it's been since birth i'm sure he has
13:52 <Nothing\> at least i assumed so
13:56 <hsn> yeah .. i should ..
14:00 <K> or does visit to a doctor cost you a fortune there?
14:21 <hsn> hmm , for govermental hospital ,, no
14:25 <Nothing\> phew it's getting warm in here
14:33 <Nothing\> i think i may have to turn on the blessed AC
14:47 <Ampera> I hate countries with civilized healthcare
14:53 <Ampera> I don't want poor people to live
14:57 <Nothing\> i got a second AC unit for my upstairs, but unfortunately i could only get one of those portable ones that are terribly inefficient
14:57 <Ampera> they should fucking suffer for being poor
14:58 <hsn> https://photos.app.goo.gl/kpLgKiyRSJdJj6BN8 < it looks ok
14:59 <Ampera> the worthless fucks
15:02 <hsn> for me
15:14 <Nothing\> Ampera, for what it's worth, our healthcare system here is still shit
15:15 <Ampera> doesn't look red
15:19 <hsn> yeah
15:27 <Ampera> Nothing\, so is ours, the different is we pay for it
15:31 <Nothing\> it's free, yes, but severely understaffed
15:38 <Nothing\> there's been a doctor shortage for ages
15:39 <Ampera> so if you want your shit healthcare you better fucking mortgage your house
15:42 <hsn> i guess in real its different as i've seen my self before and tried to capture red eye in phone it doesn show
16:00 <Ampera> hsn, unfortunately your pupils seem to be missing
16:03 <Ampera> which might be a problem
16:16 <Nothing\> what we have at the clinic i go to now is you see these "nurse practitioners" which ar ebasically like nurses who can write prescriptions and requisition tests and what not
16:20 <K> hm, does look a bit red to me
16:24 <Nothing\> so a nurse with the power of a doctor
16:54 <hsn> i hate hospitals and get really boared from them
16:56 <Ampera> wish a doctor would just euthanize me, would solve all my problems
17:15 <K> too bad you can't afford it haha
17:20 <Ampera> I pretty much have never been (really) admitted to a hospital
17:24 <hsn> i'd done hernia surgery after 7 years of knowing that i have hernia
17:26 <Ampera> because if I were to injure myself, I'd finish the damn job
17:26 <hsn> hahah
17:32 <Nothing\> damn cat's getting bitey
17:41 <Nothing\> i was thinknig we should have named him bytey
17:43 <Ampera> not do it half-way like some sort of normie
18:08 <hsn> hospitals are just borring place
18:11 <K> but arn't we all a bunch of normies, really?
18:13 <Nothing\> i've never been admitted to a hospital, except a 3 week stint in the psych ward
18:28 <Nothing\> and a 5 month stint in an actual psychiatric facility
18:35 <Nothing\> which was actually pretty fun
18:42 <Nothing\> i learned to play guitar while i was there
18:56 <Nothing\> one of my friends brought his guitar in and taught me to read tablature
19:13 <hsn> lel nice
19:15 <Nothing\> ah my cat wants to play fetch
19:29 <hsn> feed her a mice
19:32 <Nothing\> but yeah, it was set up where each unit was a cottage that held maybe 12 of us
19:51 <Nothing\> him and yeah i do
20:01 <Nothing\> he just figured out fetch last night and i gave him a load of treats after
20:09 <hsn> u give him mices or rats
20:22 <Nothing\> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dR1_j_yxQQk
20:24 <Nothing\> there
20:28 <Nothing\> playing fetch with kitty
20:42 <Nothing\> his name's smokey, he's only 4 months old but sharp as a tack
21:16 <Nothing\> he's currently been trying to learn to drink from a faucet
21:29 <hsn> this cat looks one of the smart ones
21:44 <Nothing\> he's part maine coon
21:55 <Nothing\> so he can be viscious sometimes
22:23 <Nothing\> apparently they're really good mousers
22:49 <Nothing\> but my hands and feet/legs ar ecovered in scars from being scratched and bitten
22:59 <Nothing\> he gets really violent when he plays sometimse
23:25 <hsn> naughty child is always smart child
23:28 <Nothing\> it's hard cuz we just adopted another kitten and he has a habit of using her as a chew toy
23:28 <hsn> :p
23:41 <Nothing\> it really is just like having a child
23:47 <Nothing\> i had to kitten proof my whole house
24:01 <Nothing\> stuff towels under the reclining coucth so he wouldn't get into it
24:04 <Nothing\> and under the glider
24:06 <Nothing\> rocker
24:23 <Nothing\> heaven forbid he should get a leg caught in the inner worknigs of it
24:30 <hsn> does he pee everywhere?
24:39 <Nothing\> no that's one thing he's great about
24:58 <Nothing\> he was litter trained from from the get go cuz he was fostered by my cousin's wife
25:06 <Nothing\> she fosters rescue cats for a shelter at her house
25:37 <hsn> so when he move to new house do u train him to new toilet path?
25:53 <Nothing\> i showed him the litter box and that was about it
25:57 <Nothing\> he used it right after
26:02 <Nothing\> same with the second one we got
26:06 <hsn> ok
26:14 <hsn> nice
26:30 <Nothing\> i remember as a kid when we got our cats, we'd have to lock them in a room with the litter box for a day or two to get them to use it
28:18 <Nothing\> i feel bad cuz we have to keep the younger cat locked up in my mom's room constantly cuz otherwise the older one, smokey beats up on her and bites the shit out of her
28:30 <Nothing\> then they end up in a 69 rabbit kicking eachother in the face
28:48 <Nothing\> her yeowling like she's being killed in typical cat fashion
29:14 <Nothing\> but then she'll run from him, stop, and look back to make sure he's following her
29:31 <Nothing\> i think a lot of it is liebenspiel
30:07 <Nothing\> i've noticed he even does the classic cat mating move where he gets on top of her and bites the back of her neck
30:19 <Nothing\> despite being recently fixed and only 4 months old
30:33 <Nothing\> she's just under 3 months, but orly half his size
30:54 <Nothing\> and like i said since he's part maine coon, he can be especially aggressive
31:17 <Nothing\> but we let them get together a couple of times a day to try and get used to eachother
31:31 <Nothing\> plus the seem to like being together
32:03 <Nothing\> the best is when they get into the bath tiub, i'll thorw a few ping pong balls in and they just have a field day playing with them in there
32:29 <Nothing\> or he'll just sit there and watch her play

46:26 <rust_collector> I went outside, and looked hard at the thing I was going to do, then gutted a microwave oven.
47:18 <rust_collector> I wonder if that fan motor would be a good magnetizer and demagnetizer thingie
47:39 <rust_collector> it is probably sort of weak, I guess
30:16 Join: PsySc0rpi0n ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
41:51 <Ysjoelfir> I think those motors could well be used for creating magnetic fields
53:27 <Ysjoelfir> T3sl4, you here?
53:53 <T3sl4> buh
54:48 <Ysjoelfir> I think that its simmilar in CS and real altium and since you know everything... maybe you know what I accidentally pressed. usually when you move a part the ratsnest connecting to it is still displayed. I somehow disabled that, no Idea how and how I could reactivate it. any ideas?
55:10 <Ysjoelfir> also, how are you and what are you up to? enjoying the upcomming weekend? :D
56:43 <T3sl4> why all the questions
56:47 <T3sl4> i have a right to my privacy
56:51 <T3sl4> *slams door*
57:01 <Ysjoelfir> XD
57:16 <Ysjoelfir> you hurt my feelings </3
58:27 <T3sl4> does it say hidden vs dynamic reconnect mode
58:32 <T3sl4> and was it N you hit?
59:04 <Ysjoelfir> ha! most likely. thank you very much.

27:53 <Halcyon> Stupid cat
28:06 <hsn> its 2:27am i need to sleep
28:17 <Halcyon> Yes
23:19 <Halcyon> I might do teriyaki beef in the slow cooker for dinner tonight
25:36 <Halcyon> Hey T3sl4, you mentioned in a post on the forum not to solder crimped connectors, why is that?
26:52 <T3sl4> not sure how significant it is. maybe just because it's bad strain relief on stranded wire?
28:06 <Halcyon> Ah OK. The reason I ask is I made up a short grounding lead from an ethernet surge protector that connects to the mains grounding pin. The crimp connectors I used weren't crash hot (possibly slightly too big) so I just finished them off with some solder.
28:33 <T3sl4> yeah
28:59 <Halcyon> It's in a fixed position and will never move (the gear is fixed to a wall)
00:15 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: It's interesting to note the lack of new cases in NSW even though we are now many weeks into school being fully back, & gyms open for 2 weeks now. Both some of the leading traditional breeding grounds for flu spread. Everyone is talking about VIC rise, but it's still quite low. https://t.co/wxKEXzWcVb

09:08 <hsn> why meshing the plane????
10:04 <T3sl4> likes the look
10:30 <T3sl4> i did that a few times, back in the day, because it gives better toner density for toner transfer etching
12:01 <hsn> was that manual process or pcb manufacturing
14:33 <T3sl4> a particularly good example https://www.seventransistorlabs.com/Images/ClassD_4.jpg https://www.seventransistorlabs.com/Images/ClassD_5.jpg
15:40 <T3sl4> most of the ones i made, the layer alignment sucked, and the toner density on pours was weak
20:26 <hsn> toner density = thickness?
21:18 <T3sl4> maybe
21:23 <T3sl4> porosity in any case

32:55 <DL3CE> Good afternoon ..
33:22 <T3sl4> o/
33:26 <DL3CE> I declared one of my parts deales to be offically crazy ..
33:43 <DL3CE> T3s14 .. I'm not THAT kind of german ;)
34:27 <DL3CE> Sorry, I know that it's supposed to be a wave, but I can't help that association ;)
35:59 <DL3CE> Back to that .. wanted to buy some THT 1/4W resistors. They offer them .. at 11 cents per piece .. I may accept that in small numbers as a handling fee, you have to pay the person counting it out for you.
36:15 <DL3CE> But .. yeah .. Minimum order: 1000 pcs.
36:20 <DL3CE> at this price?
36:51 <DL3CE> They expect me to pay 110� for a bag of resistors?
37:58 <T3sl4> hah, oh dear
38:35 <DL3CE> It gets better ..
39:13 <DL3CE> they want 8cents for an 0805 too. Also at least 1000 pcs.
39:34 <DL3CE> You can get multiple full reels for that?
39:53 <T3sl4> so just go to digikey.dk or something, screw them? :P
40:05 <DL3CE> I think so.
40:12 <hsn> yes, bolt them
41:30 <DL3CE> They DO have their cheap offers, though.
42:06 <DL3CE> I ordered my new multimeter (for work, paid by work) there and they had the best offer I could find.
42:44 <T3sl4> so buy the cheap things that are cheap, and go somewhere else for the expensive things
42:52 <T3sl4> that's how competition works :P
45:43 <DL3CE> Yes. I think I will just order the 5W wirewounds there (they are cheap, and they are original Vitrohm, too) and grab the other stuff somewhere else.
46:09 <DL3CE> Hmm .. regarding the multimeter ..
46:27 <DL3CE> I think I will spend an hour or two at work measuring things on Monday.
46:49 <DL3CE> Hey, I have to check if it works before I have it paid. :D
47:06 <DL3CE> (Yeah I just want to play with it .. Fluke 289)
