22:05:07 <Nothing\> but now i find he broke up with her, he's got pending charges for DUI and possession or some such, he relapsed on heroin and almost died after getting a shot with fentanyl
22:05:07 <Halcyon> Damn :(
22:05:07 <Nothing\> yeah really
22:05:07 <Nothing\> fucking fentanyl
22:05:07 <Nothing\> it's so stupid
22:05:07 <Nothing\> and carfentanil double so
22:05:07 <Nothing\> like, carfentanil is so potentent, a dose the size of a grain of salt could be fatal
22:05:07 <Nothing\> they gave me a variety of fentanyl for surgery called remifentanyl, i remember the dose was 1ug/kg so a total of about 70ug
22:05:08 <Nothing\> UG
22:05:08 <Nothing\> that's fucking insane
22:05:08 <Nothing\> and that was to knock my ass out for surgery
22:05:08 <Nothing\> and truth be told, even as an avid opioid addict, it wasn't terribly good feeling
22:05:08 <Nothing\> general anesthesia is weird
22:05:08 <Nothing\> it's what imagine death is like
22:05:08 <Nothing\> just absolute nothingness. deeper than any sleep you've ever had. no sense of anything. no dreams, no sense of time passing, nothing
22:05:08 <Nothing\> it's like they inject the drugs, you feel them creep up your arm vein up to your heart
22:05:08 <Nothing\> the next thing you know, it's don
22:05:08 <Nothing\> done

22:05:08 <Nothing\> what's the most interesting mathematical curve produced from a function you can think of?
22:05:08 <Halcyon> I don't do math

22:05:09 <Nothing\> man, negative linear resistance is trippy to ponder the implications of
22:05:10 <Nothing\> it's like it'd just be an infinite power generating device
22:05:10 <Nothing\> it'd make a nice addition to the sentient AI shirt that knows what you're thinking
22:05:10 <Nothing\> it doesn't do anything or use the information in any way
22:05:10 <Nothing\> it's just interested in people

22:05:10 <rust_collector> mornings
22:29:36 <electrohead> o/
22:39:23 * electrohead randomly dances
22:39:43 <rust_collector> hi mr dancing head
22:39:48 <electrohead> lol, hey man
22:39:57 <electrohead> good morning
22:40:11 <rust_collector> I guess it is an ok day over there?
22:40:28 <rust_collector> or do you have a sad dance?
22:44:38 <electrohead> haha
22:44:41 <electrohead> it's a good day :P
22:44:50 <rust_collector> nice
22:44:59 <electrohead> already got a few things done around the apartment, and it's 0845 in the morning
22:45:06 <electrohead> so, definitely a good day, I have energy
22:45:14 <rust_collector> hehe, just wait
22:45:32 <rust_collector> well, go do stuff before you run out
22:45:38 <electrohead> well by later on, the energy levels will definitely decrease
22:46:01 <electrohead> yet, I have something exciting coming in the mail today, so that has me going for now
22:51:33 <electrohead> I'm not saying what it is, until I get it and start playing with it :P
22:51:48 <electrohead> shall definitely post audio demos over time here in the channel, if people don't mind
22:52:14 <electrohead> that said, I also have a fuck ton of 555 timers on the way, so I can have a go at making my own home-made mini synthesizer
23:05:36 <rust_collector> Some days, I wake up really early, and I... say I clean the kitchen, and do things, then wait until the neighbors wake up, because I don't want to make too much noise in the morning, then I never get going again
23:06:08 <rust_collector> hmm, 555 synth...
23:07:07 <rust_collector> mom just called. we were invited to grandpas birthday next week.
23:08:04 <rust_collector> that is a thing. he is almost prehistoric
23:09:50 <rust_collector> so, are you thinking you want to use one 555 on each "key"?
23:10:23 <coppice> do you chat with him about hunting t rexes in his youth?
23:11:13 <rust_collector> that was one of the things he did in his midlife crisis, as they did not have motorbikes back then
23:13:30 <electrohead> lol
23:13:33 <electrohead> haha
23:13:35 <electrohead> g'morning, coppice
23:13:39 <rust_collector> he did say something about t-rex tacos being much better than the chihuaua tacos they make now
23:14:04 <electrohead> and, not sure what I want to do, yet. still learning a lot about what needs to be done, in order to get a full synth setup
23:14:35 <rust_collector> that depends on what you mean by a "fyll synth setup"
23:15:23 <rust_collector> if you want a toy piano, or half a wall of modules that you hook up in different ways?
23:18:56 * Ampera sneezes morningly at electrohead
23:19:42 <electrohead> I never said anything about a toy piano
23:19:43 <electrohead> :P
23:19:48 <electrohead> hey Ampera
23:19:58 <Ampera> that's some real honky tonk shit I'm hearing :P
23:20:05 <Ampera> how do electrohead
23:20:06 <electrohead> lol
23:20:14 <electrohead> it's does, how you do as well?
23:20:15 <electrohead> haha
23:20:36 <Ampera> I do ado eghjioa gi awgenio
23:20:39 <Ampera> jieao
23:20:41 <Ampera> fkawp
23:20:45 <Ampera> and other such nonsense
23:21:11 <electrohead> we're deep in the yonders of the south today :P
23:21:24 <electrohead> ok that sounds funny
23:21:33 <Ampera> I'm headed out for a walk as soon as I stop being lazy
23:21:39 <Ampera> so anywhere from five minutes to five hours from now
23:22:28 <electrohead> rust_collector: for now, I'm just wanting to build up something minimal to start with, end goal would be nice to half a wall/half-wall full of home made synth gear, to include sequencers, filters, etc, the whole works
23:22:42 <electrohead> the youtube channel 'look mum no computer' inspired me greatly to try it out, now
23:22:43 <electrohead> wee
23:22:49 <Ampera> oh just realized we're talking about analog synth
23:23:00 * Ampera smacks electrohead over his electro head with a soundfont
23:23:12 <electrohead> Ampera, lol, well it is saturday, you could just say 'the heck with a walk' until tomorrow or monday :P
23:23:24 <electrohead> heh
23:23:30 <Ampera> no because I am sorta kinda on call for work tomorrow
23:23:39 <electrohead> ahh, damn
23:23:43 <Ampera> I may bribe myself with some subway
23:23:48 <electrohead> tell them you changed your mind XD
23:23:58 <Ampera> I can't, and for reasons I'm not allowed to go into :P
23:24:04 <electrohead> :P
23:24:06 <Ampera> safe to say, a lot of people have lost their weekends at work
23:24:16 <Ampera> I'm unimportant enough to not matter in this situation
23:24:30 <electrohead> important enough to be called in though, yah? :p
23:24:31 <Ampera> only thing I can do is PM you something and you can do your own research.
23:24:39 <Ampera> so long as you don't tell anyone else :P
23:24:46 <electrohead> lol
23:25:37 <electrohead> in reference to your soundfont comment - maybe eventually I shall look into the full digital side of creating sounds and effects
23:25:53 <electrohead> but, analog sh'tuff is more fun
23:26:05 <Ampera> I enjoy digital and sample based synth, but the soundfont system is old and decrepit
23:26:27 <Ampera> VSTs are far nicer, but few of them support Linux, which is what my DAW runs on
23:26:48 <Ampera> Someone probably figured out how to use Wine to run VST's though, so I should look into that some day
23:27:10 <Ampera> what I like the most is DSP effects, as I have a couple of guitars
23:28:34 <electrohead> among my collection of pedals, my pride and joy of effects is the Boss GT-8, got this baby quite some years ago
23:28:45 <electrohead> endless amount of fun :D
23:29:17 <Ampera> I have a couple of pedals, just reverb and distortion
23:30:24 <rust_collector> electrohead, I thought you were into dm, so you would have a hm2?
23:30:47 <coppice> I have a couple of pedals, brake and accelerator
23:31:13 <electrohead> coppice: lol
23:31:22 <electrohead> rust_collector: to be honest, not sure if I have that or not
23:31:23 <Ampera> coppice, no clutch?
23:31:24 <Ampera> lazy
23:31:30 * electrohead looks
23:31:32 <coppice> Ampera: its 2020
23:31:46 <Ampera> I know it's 1980, what about it?
23:31:53 <rust_collector> the classic swedish dm sound is a hm2 with everything turned to max
23:33:37 <electrohead> rust_collector: lmfao
23:33:42 <coppice> I did actually buy a clutch in 1980, along with the rest of the car
23:33:51 <rust_collector> what? you do not believe that?
23:33:56 <electrohead> my WRX has a clutch :)
23:34:12 <electrohead> oh I believe it, just funny you said it like that :P
23:34:26 <coppice> I can't even buy my current car with a clutch
23:34:53 <rust_collector> my -67 plymouth has a bunch of clutches
23:35:23 <Ampera> Well my car doesn't have a manual gearbox either, but it's 90's GM so
23:35:44 <rust_collector> and it has a big heap of clutches
23:39:38 <electrohead> old clutches you had to replace over time? :P
23:40:43 <rust_collector> automatic boxes has a lot of clutches
23:41:42 <electrohead> oh oh, ok
23:43:37 <rust_collector> unless you mean one of those modern manuals that are automatic, they usually have just 1 or 2
23:44:22 <Ampera> my car has overdrive :3
23:44:37 <Ampera> and a fuel consumption rivals aircraft
23:45:45 <coppice> I wonder how much these rev matching systems in a lot of modern cars extends the life of the clutch?
23:47:26 <rust_collector> for most people, probably a lot
23:48:29 <coppice> they can't avoid the wear from crawling. I wonder what percentage of total wear that is for a typical car?
23:48:49 <electrohead> my car is tuned for 93 octane, so I feel you, Ampera
23:50:27 <coppice> I miss the good old days of 102 octane
23:50:29 <Ampera> my car is tuned for moon water
23:50:38 <coppice> my car is tuned for diesel
23:52:39 <electrohead> never heard of 102 octane before
23:52:52 <rust_collector> when I look at moms dropping off kids outside kindergarden or school, I do not think crawling by using the clutch is done much any more
23:53:05 <electrohead> lol
23:53:36 <Ampera> This is (similar, same model, just different trim/year) my car https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buick_Regal#/media/File:Buick_Regal_(W-body)_gray.jpg
23:53:44 <Ampera> though mine is a 4 door
23:53:57 <Ampera> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buick_Regal#/media/File:Buick_Regal_2_--_10-30-2009.jpg this is closer
23:54:04 <Ampera> mine is silver/grey
23:54:36 <electrohead> I really don't miss my old buick electra
23:54:39 <electrohead> heh
23:54:49 <electrohead> giant orange tank with a fucking white vinyl top
23:54:50 <electrohead> xD
23:55:00 <Ampera> It has a decent enough engine, V6 231cu
23:55:18 <rust_collector> the 3.8 is a pretty good engine
