00:00:34 <Nothing\> coppice, frankly i should write my MP about it
00:00:45 <Nothing\> but there have been a lot of things i've wanted to write my MP about lately
00:00:53 <Nothing\> and Doug Ford
00:01:05 <Nothing\> even though i know he's busy with the covid thing, you never know
00:01:17 <Nothing\> never hurts to go to all levels of government
00:03:28 <Nothing\> oh hey
00:04:05 <Nothing\> as it turns out, i've got like 10 satellite dish receivers here lol
00:04:19 <Nothing\> i'm thinking i could salvage some parts from them hopefully
00:04:49 <Nothing\> i got a really beefy totem pole configuration of BJTs on a huge heat sink out of this stereo receiver
00:05:06 <Nothing\> feels like the heatsink's made of steel though. it's really heavy
00:05:15 <Nothing\> is that usual?
00:06:25 <Nothing\> oh also, bit of a tangent i know. but i've noticed on my bench power supply, the black terminal puts out a positive voltage and the red one puts out the negative voltage
00:06:27 <coppice> Nothing\: what is more puzzling to me is the push by part of the fringe left the in US for abortions up to full term. In other words a baby would actually be born normally at 40 weeks, and the medical people would basically ask the mother if they should kill it. They are making this so extreme, they are creating momentum to reverse the Rowe vs Wade decision that made abortion available across the US
00:07:00 <Nothing\> yeah, i'm all for pro-choice
00:07:08 <Nothing\> but late term abortions are fucked up
00:07:39 <Ampera> I went to planned parenthood for an 18 year late abortion and they refused
00:07:43 <Ampera> so they just gave me some drugs :/
00:08:00 <Nothing\> once it's recognizable as a baby, acts like baby, it's safe to say it probably thinks like baby and has all of the other qualities of a baby. except maybe opaque skin and the ability to breathe on their own
00:08:10 <Nothing\> lol Ampera
00:08:33 <Ampera> My issue with abortion is I enjoy the idea of killing unborn babies, but I don't like the idea of giving women rights to their own bodies
00:08:36 <Ampera> so it's hard one for me
00:08:39 <Nothing\> you need to go to jack kevorkian for super late term abortions like that
00:09:09 <Nothing\> lol when i was in the mental health ward, my brother told me to tell my shrink that i masturbate with dead kittens
00:09:16 <Nothing\> i never did do that
00:09:29 <Nothing\> shit that reminds me i wanted to ask
00:09:36 <Nothing\> coppice, may know
00:09:46 <electrohead> aaaand, I think I came back at the wrong time
00:09:47 <coppice> Nothing\: late term abortions are complex. What if at 30 weeks the foetus is discovered to be horrible defective? That's so late its now a routine time for a premmie baby to be born, yet should we continue with a really messed up pregancy?
00:09:51 <electrohead> (lol)
00:09:53 <Nothing\> but is it possible to make a darlington pair type configuration out of vacuum tubes?
00:10:06 <Nothing\> i'm assuming it is, i mean i could see making out with a tetrode
00:10:11 <electrohead> hey Nothing\
00:10:18 <Nothing\> hey electrohead
00:10:19 <electrohead> hi coppice
00:10:21 <Nothing\> how ya doing buddy?
00:10:31 <electrohead> I'm doing, how about yourself?
00:10:41 <Nothing\> lol yeah you came in at an odd juncture in our conversation
00:10:41 <coppice> I think abortions should be limited to the first 1000 weeks. If the offspring is not developing well by then, you should have to put up with it
00:10:55 <Nothing\> i'm doing well. i'm hoping i slept enough cuz i've gotta move my brother today
00:11:12 <Ysjoelfir> is he so heavy that he can't walk by himself?
00:11:16 <Nothing\> and the way it's looking, it's gonna be 3 addicts and an elderly lady moving
00:11:31 <Nothing\> Ysjoelfir, no but i just wanted to help him move house is what i meant
00:11:33 <Nothing\> lol
00:11:37 <electrohead> lmao
00:11:40 <Ysjoelfir> :P
00:11:53 <Nothing\> Ysjoelfir, though in fairness, my uncle used to literally have to help my grandmother move sometimes
00:11:55 <electrohead> fun times moving, though
00:12:04 <Nothing\> like she'd fall off the toilet and he'd have to come over and help her up
00:12:11 <Ampera> This channel is such a fucking insane asylum and I love it
00:12:26 <Nothing\> cuz the people at the retirement home she lived at weren't legally allowed to touch their patients if any medical emergency came up
00:12:37 <Nothing\> which begs the question, wtf is their job then?
00:12:49 <coppice> Ampera: Watch out. Have you reached 1000 weeks yet?
00:12:51 <Nothing\> and what's the point of them being there
00:13:11 <Nothing\> i'm just glad my grandmother passed just before covid got real bad cuz she probably woulda wound up getting it
00:13:23 <Ampera> coppice, close to it
00:13:26 <Nothing\> not to mention all the falls she sustained
00:13:32 <Ampera> next year at some point
00:13:42 <electrohead> that reminds me of the christopher titus joke about late term abortions
00:14:05 <coppice> Nothing\: the only time I went to Canada was purely for the falls
00:14:48 <Nothing\> nice
00:14:52 <Nothing\> i've been there a few times
00:14:55 <Nothing\> very overpriced
00:15:04 <Nothing\> i'm actually not too far from niagara
00:15:27 <Nothing\> aren't they so much more impressive IRL than any film or picture could do them justice?
00:15:39 <Nothing\> oh wait nm lol
00:15:45 <Nothing\> i just heard the joke go over my head
00:15:50 <coppice> I just crossed the border for a few hours. I probably did buy more than a coke and an ice cream there.
00:15:51 * Nothing\ blushes
00:16:12 <coppice> oh, wait. I overpaid to go on that Maid of the Mist boat
00:16:16 <Nothing\> did you look at the horseshoe falls from the canadian side?
00:16:24 <Nothing\> imo that's the best angle to look at them
00:16:52 <Nothing\> there's this area with a railing over the ledge and a restaurant or some sort of building there where you can get a fantastic view
00:16:55 <coppice> everything is better on the Canadian side. The American side is like a pit of despair
00:17:09 <Nothing\> yeah you have the american falls which are like
00:17:14 <Nothing\> a waterfall?
00:17:27 <Nothing\> but the horseshoe falls have a fantastic shape to them
00:17:35 <Nothing\> that just adds to how great it is
00:17:52 <rust_collector> like a "u"?
00:17:53 <Nothing\> have you read about how erosion's played a part in the formation of the falls?
00:17:59 <coppice> you can't see the falls well from the American side, and the local town (Buffalo?) seems to be the set for a dystopian movie
00:18:16 <Nothing\> or see the pictures when they had to actually stop the falls at once or maybe a couple of points
00:18:37 <Nothing\> yeah, buffalo
00:18:56 <electrohead> coppice: are you from 'merica, or Canada?
00:18:56 <Nothing\> my mom's ex used to drive there a lot as an airport coach
00:19:06 <coppice> electrohead: no
00:19:15 <Nothing\> lol
00:19:25 <Nothing\> he's some sort of asian, everyone knows that
00:19:28 <Nothing\> =P
00:19:34 <electrohead> lol
00:19:39 <Nothing\> at least part of my brain won't let go of that idea
00:20:39 <Nothing\> rofl
00:20:53 <Nothing\> i showed my cat his tail and he immediately started going to town on it attacking it
00:21:20 <electrohead> you should get your cats to teach my cat how to eat dry food >.<
00:21:30 <Nothing\> they know how
00:21:37 <Nothing\> i can't stand wet food, it's so gross
00:22:09 <Nothing\> i felt bad cuz my one kitten was losing 6 teeth at the same time and would always be scratching at her face after she ate
00:22:43 <Nothing\> and yet the vet i saw tried to tell me she was older than 6 months old, despite everything i read saying they have all of their adult teeth by that point
00:23:04 <coppice> Our dog hates kibble, but we mix some jelly like dog food with it, and she's OK with it.
00:23:07 <Nothing\> and i know the person who rescued her so she had a pretty good idea when she was born
00:23:18 <Nothing\> coppice, what about gravy?
00:23:25 <Nothing\> though that might be kinda fatty
00:23:50 <Nothing\> just coat it in a light layer of gravy to give it the smell and flavor
00:23:58 <coppice> She gets lots of treats, though. I don't know how happy she would be with the kibble if she didn't get some of our food, and some dog treats.
00:24:23 <rust_collector> dogs can eat almost any kind of leftover crap. just not cat food
00:24:23 <coppice> gracy turns kibble into mush. the jelly stuff reduces the dryness without making mush
00:24:24 <Nothing\> yeah my cats wer egetting too many treats and too much kibble so we had to cut back
00:24:42 <Nothing\> like we'd have 3 different eating/drinking stations throughout the house
00:24:45 <electrohead> I tried mixing wet and dry cat food, but.. my cat ate the wet food, and spit all the dry food out. went out to the kitchen with a bowl full of dry food. didn't eat a single. fucking. piece
00:25:04 <Nothing\> kitchen, my room and my mom's room for at night when they were upstairs with us
00:25:20 <Nothing\> but the vet said only feed them something like half a cup of kibble a day
00:25:48 <Nothing\> i noticed they ARE starting to get pudgy but i figured that was just from being fixed and from being female
00:26:00 <coppice> electrohead. If we take a little of our food and mix it with the dog food, our dog will pick out all the human food and only eat the dog food afterwards
00:26:05 <Nothing\> they certainly do a lot of running and playing
00:26:20 <Nothing\> coppice, lol my one cat does that
00:26:47 <Nothing\> his food has these crunchy squares in it she likes, so she'll pick all of those out and leave the crappy pieces for the other cat
00:26:53 <hsn> Ampera, (eevblog convert 1 T3sl4-knowledge to hsn-knowledge) ---> x1000
00:26:53 <EEVBlog> I wasn't able to parse that correctly, please see EEVBlog Help for more details
00:27:12 <hsn> hah it doesnt have to be in start of sentence
00:27:18 <Nothing\> so i finally got my bench power supply to work
00:27:26 <hsn> bla bla eevblog version
00:27:30 <coppice> she LOVES a lot of human food. Not just the obvious stuff, like pieces of lamb or salmon. she's a big fan of broccoli
00:27:46 <Nothing\> i can't get constant current mode but i find if i set the voltage first, connect it, then set the current as needed it works like a charm
00:27:57 <Nothing\> but i fear i may have to get a better quality power supply
00:28:07 <Nothing\> i just one of those cheapo $100 units
00:28:13 <Nothing\> 30v 10A
00:28:38 <Nothing\> it's really nice after using batteries for 3 years
00:29:24 <Nothing\> i made especially sure to get one with a ground lead so i can set up dual supply op amps without dicking around with virtual ground and like that
00:29:54 <electrohead> lol, funny you mention vegetables, fucking cat won't touch dry food, picky about certain wet foods.. yet, human food? then it's game on. hell, she literally begged me to try a piece of raw zucchini, likes cooked broccoli, and goes crazy for really anything I make up from scratch
00:30:04 <electrohead> she's a weird one, but I still love her haha
00:30:27 <Nothing\> except all of the probes i have are either red or black, so the colors would be confusing
00:30:41 <Nothing\> electrohead, speaking of cat food and vegetables
00:30:48 <Nothing\> i saw this thing they have now
00:30:52 <Nothing\> "beyond cat food"
00:31:02 <electrohead> what make/model power supply is it?
00:31:05 <Nothing\> it's basically like vegetarian cat food or something
00:31:14 * electrohead looks
00:31:18 <Nothing\> it is a... actually i'll see if i can dig up the page for it
00:31:31 <coppice> electrohead: with some foods I don't know how much its that she finds it yummy, and how much its her wanting to have what we have
00:33:01 <Nothing\> https://www.amazon.ca/Adjustable-Switching-Regulated-Spectrophotometer-0-10A-4digital/dp/B07GCGFDYZ/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=stp3010h&qid=1601562767&sr=8-2
00:33:08 <Nothing\> there's the power supply i decided on
00:33:23 <Nothing\> wtf is a "spectrophotometer"
00:33:31 <Nothing\> just looking at the URL for it
00:34:15 <coppice> Its a spectrum analyser for optical frequencies
00:34:35 <coppice> which seems to have nothing to do with that product
00:35:21 <electrohead> at all, lol
00:36:00 <electrohead> and, that roughly looks like the one PSU I have in the back room, untouched for some time, now
00:36:40 <electrohead> https://www.amazon.com/MASTECH-HY1803D-VARIABLE-SUPPLY-display/dp/B005112A2E
00:36:43 <electrohead> that guy
00:37:28 <K> poor guy
00:37:40 <Nothing\> electrohead, right on. you ever use it with dual supplies?
00:37:51 <electrohead> haven't used it in some time, because I made up a bench unit utilizing the DPS5005
00:38:05 <electrohead> I have not
00:38:06 <Nothing\> see i woulda got something like that, but i wanted something with a 3rd grounding lead so i could make dual supply circuits easier
00:38:21 <electrohead> K: :P
00:38:50 <Nothing\> but i mean i guess you could make them easy enough with one with 2 leads on it if you just make a voltage divider and reference everything to the middle voltage
00:39:26 Quit: spark_gap ([email protected]) Connection closed
00:39:32 <Nothing\> so if you have 10v, have a divider with 5v on each end and reference each end to the middle so one end gives +5 and the other gives -5
00:40:05 <Nothing\> you can do that with batteries but one battery inevitably drains faster than the other and you get uneven voltages on each of your rails
00:40:26 <Nothing\> and then one rail inevitably starts trying to power the weaker rail
00:40:52 <electrohead> speaking of, I have a frickin' Agilent 6624A just hanging out, that I got for pennies via ebay. not literal pennies, but picked it up for 60 or 80 dollars with shipping
00:41:06 <electrohead> was listed as 'broken'
00:41:06 <Nothing\> lucky
00:41:31 <electrohead> but, here.. the seller didn't know how to flip the damn voltage selection card over
00:41:35 <electrohead> lol
00:41:39 <Nothing\> haha
00:41:44 <electrohead> yeah, damn lucky indeed
00:41:45 <Nothing\> good score
00:41:56 <Nothing\> man i could go for some corn dogs
00:42:15 <electrohead> when I measured the voltage across the main input transformer, noticed it was half of what it should have been
00:42:49 <electrohead> scratched my head for only two seconds, did the 'el flippo', and poof, everything worked lmao
00:42:55 <electrohead> corn dogs sound amazing
00:43:00 <Nothing\> oh my mom tells me there still corn dogs in the freezer from 2 years ago lol
00:43:12 <electrohead> gah, they're good :D
00:43:24 <Nothing\> you live in america?
00:43:33 <electrohead> and if freezer burned, ketchup can fix that xD
00:43:38 <electrohead> pennsylvania
00:43:39 <Nothing\> heh
00:43:40 <electrohead> :P
00:44:02 <Nothing\> ah, we have a commercial brand of corn dogs here sold in the frozen foods section called pogos
00:44:10 <Nothing\> so we can get them whenever we want
00:44:58 <electrohead> Aldi's sells them for a decent price
00:45:11 <Nothing\> right on
00:45:25 <electrohead> err, the aldi's down the road a bit
00:45:33 <electrohead> only a five minute drive, down on the highway
00:47:24 <electrohead> gah, now I'm hungry, thanks
00:47:52 * electrohead steals some corn dogs from nothing's freezer

00:56:35 <electrohead> lol
00:56:46 <electrohead> I'm about to make some scrambled eggs up
00:56:54 <electrohead> and may possibly lay down for a bit, after
00:57:19 <electrohead> rust_collector: that sounds different
00:57:29 <Ampera> I may end up going to the supermarket for some food
00:57:33 <Ampera> which may or may not include beefaroni
00:58:25 <rust_collector> electrohead, it is what the junkies up here get fed in winter
00:58:36 <rust_collector> and it tastes ok too
00:58:37 <Nothing\> lol i just stained my hand red
00:58:56 <Nothing\> i poured a buncha red food coloring to fake an injury and freak my mom out
00:58:59 <Ampera> Fisting at that time of the month again, Nothing\?
00:59:00 <K> made up scrambled egs

01:01:54 <Nothing\> i really need to get back into 8052 programming
01:02:17 <Nothing\> it's just a pain cuz the only way i can do it is through a simulator on my pi
01:02:42 <Nothing\> which means switching over my mouse, keyboard, and hdmi and plugging in the power supply
01:03:04 Join: TheDude ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
01:03:18 <Nothing\> TheDude, do you abide?
01:03:41 <Nothing\> also i can see your real name
01:03:55 <Nothing\> you should fix that if you're not comfortable with your real name being public
01:04:00 <Nothing\> just your first name though
01:04:04 * Ampera smacks Nothing\
01:04:07 <Ampera> he knows that :P
01:04:15 <Nothing\> some people don't
01:04:32 <Ampera> well he's not Some_Person, he's TheDude
01:04:47 <Nothing\> ugh, 2 cats pooped at the same time
01:04:54 <Nothing\> it's ilke a gas bomb in here
01:05:02 <Ampera> That's a romance story and a half.

01:05:40 <electrohead> lol
01:05:45 <Nothing\> so after he poops, luci will go in behind him and properly cover his poop for him
01:05:58 * electrohead offers eggs with hot sauce
01:06:03 <electrohead> cheese as well, of course
01:06:09 <TheDude> hey
01:06:13 <Nothing\> hot sauce is the last thing i need
01:06:20 <Nothing\> heart burn to begin with from acid reflux

01:06:36 <Ampera> mmm
01:06:41 <Nothing\> plus a buncha pills that basically make my stomah feel like i'm digesting mint extract, burns like crazy
01:06:54 <TheDude> unless you see more than that... I'd need to fix that then :D
01:06:55 <Ampera> I'm planning on making spaghetti with fried pork, and a cream of chicken sauce

01:07:40 <TheDude> yes
01:07:41 <Nothing\> you bite into them and your mouth just floods with grease
01:07:45 <Ampera> meh, mushrooms are too watery for that
01:07:45 <Nothing\> sooo good
01:07:56 <Ampera> I've had them, not a fan
01:07:57 <Nothing\> not at all dude
01:08:08 <Nothing\> deep fried bok choi?
01:08:12 <TheDude> mushrooms filled with cheese and prosciutto, deep fried
01:08:13 <Ampera> too vegetal
01:08:20 <Ampera> TheDude, now that I can abide by
01:08:21 <rust_collector> nah, deep fried onions work pretty good, and they are more than 50% fat.
01:08:30 <Nothing\> TheDude, i can see burning my mouth on molten cheese
01:08:45 <TheDude> you don't eat it straight out of the oil, ffs :D
01:08:48 <electrohead> hey TheDude
01:08:51 <TheDude> hello
01:09:03 <Nothing\> i hate sausage as at is... well i'll tolerate it. but the one thing i REALLY hate is that sausage filled with cheese sauce
01:09:24 <Nothing\> cause you take a bite and molten cheese sprays all over your face, hands and lap
01:09:31 <Ampera> you...
01:09:32 <Ampera> hate sausage?
01:09:36 <Nothing\> i do
01:09:38 <Ampera> I don't think we can be friends anymore.
01:09:40 <Nothing\> and i'm german
01:09:43 <Ampera> ...
01:09:47 <Ampera> citizen?
01:09:50 <Nothing\> no
01:09:52 <rust_collector> Nothing\, maybe it is time to learn how to eat?
01:09:52 <Ampera> good
01:09:54 <Ampera> you heathen
01:09:57 <Nothing\> first gen canadian
01:09:58 * T3sl4 playfully squirts Ampera with his molten cheese
01:10:06 * Ampera gulps it up happily
01:10:23 <T3sl4> also i made chili, for which said cheese is an excellent pairing
01:10:39 <Nothing\> T3sl4, if your jizz is like cheese you've gotta fap more often lol
01:10:47 <T3sl4> haha
01:11:29 <Ampera> Man, Sony's phones are so fucking hot, but then they fall really flat on shit that I care about
01:11:32 <Ampera> like their screens
01:11:41 <Nothing\> i'm thinking of slipping my mom half of one of my anxiety pills
01:11:54 <Nothing\> she's getting super stressed out about helping my brother move
01:12:00 <TheDude> ...
01:12:04 <TheDude> dude
01:12:18 <Nothing\> i wouldn't really
01:12:30 <TheDude> I fucking hope not
01:12:30 <Nothing\> i'd never give somebody something without their knowledge or consent
01:12:31 <Ampera> when TheDude says dude, you know you've fucked up
01:12:39 <TheDude> ^
01:12:39 <electrohead> lol
01:12:47 <Nothing\> i won't even sell people drugs
01:13:01 <TheDude> how incredibly virtuous of you
01:13:01 <Nothing\> for an insane profit
01:13:36 <Nothing\> like my methadone, i could sell it for like $100 or $200 a bottle if i wanted to
01:14:25 <electrohead> that was good (the eggs). the hot sauce could be spicier, but I don't have anything hotter right now
01:15:04 <electrohead> "if your jizz is like cheese you've gotta fap more often"
01:15:07 <electrohead> lmfao
01:15:23 <electrohead> love this channel, hahaha
01:15:50 * T3sl4 squirts some cheese on electrohead's eggs
01:16:04 <electrohead> so yummy
01:16:24 <electrohead> Ampera: can the bot record quotes?
01:17:39 <Ampera> No, but that's a good idea
01:18:29 <T3sl4> ah yes, quotebots in streamer chats are often amusing
01:18:34 <Nothing\> man
01:18:55 <Nothing\> i've got 1gb of datasheets, app notes and various PDFs pertaining to EE and CS
01:19:12 <Nothing\> yet i've probably read onyl a handfull front to back
01:19:26 <Nothing\> thank you very much ADD
01:19:28 <Ampera> I might want to set up a quick and simple database for the bot, but I'd be concerned about SQL injection
01:19:31 <Ampera> and securing that shit
01:19:33 <Ampera> and whatever else
01:20:13 <Nothing\> it's a bitch of a problem, i have really bad ADD and the only treatment for it is something like ritalin, which acts in the brain the same way cocaine does, or amphetamines which are literally speed
01:20:29 <Nothing\> they even prescribe literal meth to some people for ADD/ADHD
01:20:51 <Nothing\> but i have suhc bad anxiety, none of those meds are any good for me
01:21:07 <electrohead> oh shit - any south park fans in here? https://www.southparkstudios.com/video-clips/2eflzd/south-park-the-pandemic-special
01:21:07 <Nothing\> i can't even tolerate caffeine, nevermind having speed
01:21:28 <Nothing\> even though i've had good results with ritalin in the past, it also caused me terrible anxiety
01:21:49 <electrohead> Nothing\: the last medications I was ever on was paxil and seroquel, but took myself off of those, fuck all that
01:21:59 <Nothing\> electrohead, i used to like south park up until the 20th season or so when they started focusing more on pop culture references
01:22:13 <Nothing\> i just don't get them cuz i'm reclusive
01:22:19 <electrohead> lol
01:22:28 <Nothing\> how much seroquel?
01:22:33 <Nothing\> taht stuff was a wonder drug for me
01:22:37 <Nothing\> in low doses
01:22:40 <electrohead> I honestly forget how much
01:22:43 <Nothing\> like 25-50mg
01:23:00 <electrohead> Ampera: maybe use something pre-existing that's known for good security, etc?
01:23:05 <Nothing\> i had terrible insomnia since i was 12
01:23:08 <electrohead> only a thought
01:23:19 <Nothing\> and some time around my mid 20's somebody tried me on seroquel
01:23:25 <Nothing\> and it worked wonders
01:23:27 <rust_collector> Nothing\, whyyyy do you even remember all about how much of whatever weird name drugs you used to have?
01:24:02 <Nothing\> rust_collector, because i'm fairly well versed in pharmcology for a lay person
01:24:13 <K> byee.
01:24:37 <rust_collector> so?
01:24:38 <Nothing\> and i manage my health on my own as much as i can
01:25:09 <Nothing\> rust_collector, so i remember what doses of what drugs i was on at most points in my life
01:25:13 * electrohead waves bye to K
01:25:24 <rust_collector> but you have some issues remembering some things, right? but that stuff seems to be stuck in your brain
01:25:27 <Nothing\> but anyways i had terrible insomnia since i was 12 that nothing would touch
01:25:38 <electrohead> the military docs put me on effexor XR, and over time, that just made me worse, gah
01:25:45 <Nothing\> rust_collector, my long term memory is decent, short term not so much
01:25:49 <Nothing\> my meds give me amnesia
01:25:55 <Nothing\> literal amnesia
01:25:59 <rust_collector> mmh
01:26:05 <rust_collector> perfect
01:26:23 <Nothing\> but anyways nothing would put a denti in my insomnia
01:26:26 <electrohead> worse part about the effexor for me, was that I couldn't fully get off, if you know what I mean
01:26:29 <electrohead> >.<
01:26:45 <electrohead> my dick would literally just give up on me, lol
01:26:55 <Nothing\> i'd tried everything from sleeping pills to holistic medicine, exercise and diet changes, stuff like that to no avail
01:27:00 <Nothing\> then comes along seroquel
01:27:18 <Nothing\> as what's his face says
01:27:25 <Nothing\> "babies don't sleep this well"
01:27:52 <electrohead> I've heard that psych wards love putting people on seroquel
01:27:55 <electrohead> heh
01:28:07 <Nothing\> yeah but instead of the 25-50mg they put me on
01:28:18 <Nothing\> they put psych patients o like 400-800mg
01:28:28 <Nothing\> which has really nasty side effects
01:30:09 <Nothing\> earplugs helped me sleep better than any drug ever did, too
01:31:12 <rust_collector> some times I think I was made to be up for 2 days, and sleep one day.

01:42:24 <Nothing\> so, if memristors are supposed to be a passive device
01:42:38 <Nothing\> does that mean you can couple something memristorly
01:48:15 <rust_collector> good night people.
02:13:11 * Ampera went to the store
02:13:15 * Ampera didn't find beefaroni
02:13:18 * Ampera is disappointed
02:14:34 <electrohead> rust_collector: good night
02:15:09 <electrohead> Ampera: I imagine it shouldn't be too hard to make it homemade?
02:15:23 <Ampera> I want it in a can >:(
02:15:27 <Ampera> that's the point of beefaroni
02:15:28 <Ampera> to be lazy
02:15:38 <Ampera> though a homemade beefaroni doesn't sound bad
02:15:57 <Ampera> On the bright side I got truffle mac & cheese, more bratwurst, mushrooms, and boneless skinless chicken thighs
02:16:07 <Ampera> and some shells & cheese too
02:16:17 <Ampera> I've been enjoying fried bratwurst slices in mac & cheese recently
02:17:23 <electrohead> mmm
02:17:29 <electrohead> what is truffle mac and cheese?
02:17:49 <Ampera> it's just mac & cheese flavored with a little bit of truffle
02:17:50 <Ampera> it's delicious
02:18:52 <electrohead> I've never tasted truffles yet
02:19:33 <Ampera> No clue how truffle it is, as I've never had truffle, as I'm not made of money
02:19:38 <Ampera> but it's good mac & cheese regardless
02:20:20 <electrohead> heh, seeing that apparently they are expensive as hell
02:23:31 <Nothing\> ah i'm playnig this puzzle game called TIS-100 where you use TI MSP-430 assembly to solve various puzzles
02:23:46 <Nothing\> also i just spent $100 on my kitties
02:23:57 <Nothing\> and i'm fixin to spend another $150-$200
02:24:49 <Nothing\> got them some kick ass toys, but i'm looking for one of those thing with the hammocks and dangly toys that they can climb up that are like 6 feet tall
02:25:03 <Nothing\> locally they're like $300 but theyr'e half the prize on amazon
02:25:58 <Nothing\> okie doke, this place is getting to be too distracting so i think ima take off
02:26:12 <Nothing\> you guys have a good day and take care of yourselves
02:26:17 <Nothing\> much love <3

09:23:08 <electrohead> how goes it?
09:35:06 <mb> boring as usual, i made myself some tea
09:35:21 <mb> how about you ?
09:52:01 <rust_collector> HEY!
09:55:24 <rust_collector> electrohead, be awake!
09:55:59 <electrohead> gah, I had to get something to eat, it's my fault!
09:56:02 <electrohead> :P
09:56:32 <electrohead> mb: it goes. drank a wee bit much last night, and now I'm slightly paying for it today. don't get drunk much too often, so, was worth it haha
09:57:36 * electrohead solders rust_collector's parts into a pentagram looking thing and hides
09:57:40 <rust_collector> I was just thinking that I could get paid for some repairs in vodka tomorrow... that would be nice
09:58:08 * rust_collector hangs pentagram looking things in the window, next to the others
09:58:23 <electrohead> lol
09:58:37 <electrohead> back when I smoked weed, some people would straight up pay me in weed for repairs
09:58:40 <electrohead> heh
09:58:48 <rust_collector> well, why not?
09:58:58 <electrohead> exactly
09:59:35 <electrohead> nowadays, I just ask for money, so then I can fulfill my even greater addiction - buying electronics >.<
10:00:04 * Ampera hugs electrohead
10:00:16 * electrohead hugs Ampera
10:00:28 <Ampera> weed rots your soul and alcohol is a sin >:(
10:00:29 <rust_collector> right now, I have 6 cars to fix, and when that is done, I am taking a looong break from that stuff
10:00:38 <Ampera> vices lead to the great vice of satan cracking your balls like walnuts
10:00:41 <rust_collector> Ampera, that is fine
10:01:28 <electrohead> yeah, we're cool with it, lol
10:01:31 <electrohead> :P
10:01:50 <Ampera> you sinners
10:02:02 <Ampera> I pray for your souls, like I don't pray for anything actually
10:02:02 <electrohead> will alcohol still be a sin once you turn 21?
10:02:10 <Ampera> Yes.
10:02:14 <electrohead> ok :p
10:02:15 <rust_collector> I am not sure why a city in korea would rot if I smoke weed, but sin is great
10:02:27 <electrohead> hahaha
10:02:59 <Ampera> I've known too many alcoholics in my life, I don't like alcohol
10:03:02 * electrohead adds the e
10:03:04 <rust_collector> otoh , I have never tried that, so...
10:03:13 <Ampera> I wish they had simply continued poisoning people back in prohibition days until all those fucking rot drinkers perished.
10:03:28 <rust_collector> Ampera, I do not really disagree, it can be a really bad thing
10:03:35 <electrohead> definitely
10:03:50 <Ampera> They shouldn't have busted speakeasies, they should have barricaded the entrances and exits, and then burn the buildings down with all inside.
10:03:58 <electrohead> I simply can't drink all the time like that, letalone drink to get wasted constantly
10:04:03 <Ampera> They shouldn't have chased bootleggers, they should have fucking iced them proper
10:04:16 <rust_collector> but then, I tend to limit myself to a single bottle in a night
10:04:30 <Ampera> We should have invaded Canada to put an end to their hedonistic alcoholistic society
10:04:35 <electrohead> lol
10:04:49 <Ampera> same with Mexico, and shot anyone who we find drinking so much as a shot
10:05:12 <electrohead> I get to look in eyes of alcoholics 50% of the time, at least two or three times a week, at the store
10:05:23 <electrohead> can definitely tell which ones are true alcoholics
10:05:37 <rust_collector> trve as
10:06:20 <electrohead> this one guy that shows up all the time, he shakes tremendously as he gives me his money
10:06:33 <electrohead> doesn't show up at the store drunk, though, so that's good at least >.<
10:06:36 <rust_collector> but yes, why didn't you people invade the rest on mexico?
10:07:00 <Ampera> Idk, I think the MBTA subway system might be cooler than the MTA's
10:13:40 <mb> I've worked with alcoholics about 10 years ago. Our team always take care of him.
10:13:58 <mb> Doing his work etc...
10:14:26 <mb> I guess we have a pitty to him and dont want to lose his job
10:15:58 <rust_collector> I used to have an old alcoholic as a helper at work. he did ok, but he got really angry if we were late to the store, so he had to open his "secret" stash of beer. and he had a thing for hot jägermeister. like left in the sun on dashboard all day hot.
10:16:21 <rust_collector> I think his biggest issue was that he was into football, or soccer, I guess
10:16:51 <damian> did you see that ludicrous display last night?
10:17:09 <rust_collector> probably not?
10:17:42 <damian> the thing about arsenal is, they always try to walk it in!
10:18:30 <rust_collector> OH NO!! you are one of "them"!
10:18:43 <mb> arsenal as soccer team ? or arsenal as armory ?
10:19:31 <damian> i hate you people
10:19:39 <mb> ok i shut up
10:19:50 <damian> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yN2H3--1aw
10:19:51 <rust_collector> we all hate us, it is fine
10:19:54 <damian> educate yousalf
10:19:55 <damian> :P
10:20:17 <Ampera> fuck graham linehan
10:20:22 <Ampera> the uptight cunt
10:20:38 <damian> i mean if that's your fancy, i prefer the lady variety of human myself
10:20:53 <rust_collector> I can only understand that darker guys language. but I think it is because of his body language
10:20:57 <Ampera> normally cunts are only weilded by ladies
10:20:59 <Ampera> so whatever you say
10:27:23 <electrohead> lol

17:31:25 <Ysjoelfir> hello K
17:43:33 <Ysjoelfir> K, I restarted the game yesterday as the duke of Courland. I managed to conquer estonia, samogitia and parts of lithuania, before the king of the now united kingdom of minsk and novgorod decided to just conquer me. XD
17:43:55 <K> yay!
17:44:29 <K> fwiw the novgorodians unvisely tried to conquer livonia at one point
17:45:07 <K> it ended up with livonian knights and tribes going all the way to their bigger cities and razing them
17:45:36 <Ysjoelfir> lol :D like "wtf? no, you won't conquer us! bugger off!"
17:46:45 <K> yeah
17:47:05 <K> novgoridians did capture and kill one of leaders of tribe
17:48:18 <Ysjoelfir> I immagine they didn't like them doing that?
17:50:01 <K> nope
17:52:02 <Ysjoelfir> its actually an interesting mechanic in that game, being conquered. now I'm councilor of them and can basically inject my family in the kingdom, trying to make them become heirs and then destroy the kingdom from the inside :D

18:40:39 <Nothing> and he actually seemed sober for first time in about 25 years
18:42:35 <Nothing> it's funny cuz he had a furniture store growing up, so I was saying how weird it is that we'd all get together to move furniture again after so long
18:43:33 <Nothing> even my mom was there helping, and she and my dad have been divorced forr 20 years with quit a lot of animosity
18:44:14 <Nothing> overall, it was a pretty fun and prodictive day and i'm glad i could help my brother out

18:54:05 <Nothing> like once i (3# atm) went for a walk with my brother (40) with his two daughters who were 13 (twins) we just walked out of the apartment complex and down the road to a video game store to see what they have, right
18:55:11 <Nothing> a while later the police showed up and said somebody called them saying we were spraypainting a substation by the apartment. cuz it was covered in spraypaint.
18:55:44 <Nothing> thing is, that graffiti had been there for months. and was dry as a bone.
18:55:54 <Nothing> plus none of us had backpacks.
18:56:27 <Nothing> but the cop already knew the graffitti had been there for some time
18:56:35 <Nothing> so she knew whaw was up
18:58:29 <Nothing> half the people in that building wanted me kicked out just because i smoked put. I'd never wronged them in any way. I was never anything less then cordial with everbody i met. My Mom's bf as good friends with a bnnich of them. But they had it out for me cuz I guess cuz I was young and nmoked pit
18:58:42 <Nothing> like they'd even file complaints if i went out in the middle of the night
18:58:59 <Nothing> or try to say i was smoking pot on the elevator
19:00:08 <Nothing> buncha old busy bodies with nothing better to do, i guess
19:00:22 <Nothing> i'm just glad i got out of there

20:26:48 <Nothing> i same soe piece of mm wave equipment on amazon today and thought of you, nero
20:26:58 <NeroTHz> that is cool
20:27:01 <Nothing> not sure what it was doing there
20:27:13 <coppice> when things like whatsapp finally kill off normal voice calls, they might regret tying things to a phone number :)
20:27:14 <NeroTHz> they show up now and then for god-knows-what-reason
20:27:22 <Nothing> lemme see if i can it, inever actually clicked the recommendation
20:27:44 <Nothing> ah so you know what i'm talking about
20:27:45 <NeroTHz> coppice, Whatsapps´ insistence on tying it to a phone number is such a frustrating point to me
20:28:43 <NeroTHz> These Picoscopes are cool
20:29:06 <NeroTHz> 99 bucks gets you a 2-channel 10 MHz scope with a 100 kHz AWG that is actually arbitrary (and not a glorified digital functiongenerator)
20:29:20 <NeroTHz> ideal for students
20:29:37 <Nothing> that sounds nice
20:29:46 <Nothing> nicer than that jyetech thing
20:30:05 <Nothing> i'd never ever heard of these
20:30:23 <NeroTHz> pico is a better-known name, not some rando-small startup anymore
20:30:57 <NeroTHz> kinda remind me of CopperMountain in the ´VNA´ space, and SignalHound when it comes to spectrum analyzers
20:35:26 <Nothing> right on, i'll have to check them out
20:35:34 <Nothing> as these DSO? or analog?
20:36:10 <NeroTHz> digital, obviously
20:36:14 <NeroTHz> why would anyone still use analog
20:36:28 <Nothing> yeah, that's what f igured
20:36:35 <mb> because it feel so goooood
20:36:44 <NeroTHz> analog is slow
20:36:59 <Nothing> i don't like the XY function on DSOs
20:38:43 <mb> I used to have a Siglent 100Mhz and At some level, if you generate a pulse(spike) it begin to show some staircase signal :(
20:39:37 <coppice> analogue is for people who can't grasp the maths behind the squiggly lines
20:39:38 <mb> When you change level or timing, everything turn back to normal
20:39:58 <K> it is a different instrument
20:42:30 <K> it is like eating mashed potatoes with that cake slice pickup thing - has a handle, functionally it works, and for some circles it can even be a sign that one appreciates finer things in life.
20:42:54 <NeroTHz> I struggle to see any real-world usecase for an analog scope that a digital does not do better
21:15:40 <K> boat anchor
21:15:42 <K> (ducks)
21:17:08 <Ysjoelfir> I still lvoe my Tektronix 502A
21:17:17 <Ysjoelfir> which is a pretty special analog scope
21:30:09 <Ysjoelfir> I'm sure there is no DSO that could replace that! XD

21:30:56 <Ysjoelfir> I don't like the 7k series.
21:31:32 <Ysjoelfir> I'm basically a general fan of the 500 or 600 tek series, but thats just me, the 7k are great scopes

21:59:20 <coppice> the 7k scope suck big time
21:59:36 <Ysjoelfir> \o/
21:59:40 <Ysjoelfir> I never used one
21:59:52 <coppice> The are great when they are working, but they are so unreliable
22:00:15 <Ampera> Trump has tested positive for COVID-19
22:00:20 <Ysjoelfir> well, except the super cheap and crappy 7503 (?)
22:00:41 <Ysjoelfir> seriously? great! :D
22:00:56 <Ysjoelfir> but thats probably only a lie from the press Ampera
22:01:02 <coppice> they spent a fortune crafting fancy mechanisms to put many functions on each control, but many of those operate crude <1 cent switches on the PCBs
22:01:10 <Ampera> Straight from the horse's mouth, he said it himself on his Twitter account
22:01:16 <Ampera> which the press wish they could get him to stop using :P
22:02:46 <Ysjoelfir> just read it up Ampera ^^ I usually am not happy when someone is sick but... LOL :D
22:03:01 <Ysjoelfir> "It'll be gone at the end of the year!" and so on, right?
22:03:17 <K> old news! we know that for 6h already!
22:03:33 <Ysjoelfir> oh. sorry for not knowing :D
22:03:49 <Ysjoelfir> I was occupied watching videos of some guy building wood stuff while pretending to be working
22:05:03 <coppice> "building wood stuff while pretending to be working" sounds like the most popular pastime for a lot of people
22:05:09 <Ysjoelfir> lol. suddenly 2 percent of you guys bet onto mike pence as they expect Trömp to die before the election. I find that strangely ironic
22:05:34 <Ampera> sadly Pence would tip the fucking scales as being the one guy who isn't completely mental
22:06:02 <Ampera> also BOTUS guarantees my vote if Pence runs instead
22:06:08 <Ysjoelfir> coppice, well... when your employer is like "we don't have work for you"... and kick you out because of that... why would I try to convice them they are wrong? :D
22:06:20 <Ysjoelfir> Ampera I don't know that guy, so... meh.

22:07:16 <Ysjoelfir> lol
22:07:21 <Ysjoelfir> I like that^^
22:08:10 <coppice> "Trump's positive Covid test is a surprise that many saw coming" - this is the standard of current Journalism
22:08:41 <Ysjoelfir> a surprise that one can see coming doesn't seem so surprising to me?
