00:00:02 <K> that is something you could bludgeon a person with
00:00:27 <rust_collector> the handle thing, yes
00:02:04 <rust_collector> https://i2.wp.com/learnantiques.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/L.M.-Ericsson-Skeleton-Telephone-No.-370AC100-c.1890.jpg?resize=300%2C300&ssl=1
00:02:12 <rust_collector> that is neat
00:02:26 <K> yeah
00:02:34 <Ysjoelfir> absolutely :D
00:09:47 <rust_collector> ok, I give up
00:09:51 <rust_collector> time for a nap
00:09:55 <Ysjoelfir> enjoy :)
00:10:00 <electrohead> o/
00:10:04 <rust_collector> hoi
00:10:08 <Ysjoelfir> hi mr head
00:10:16 * Ampera hugs electrohead, rust_collector, and Ysjoelfir
00:10:23 <Ysjoelfir> hi mr current
00:10:28 * Ampera gives K some prosciutto
00:10:33 <rust_collector> oh goodie, now I can sleep
00:10:38 <Ampera> good night
00:10:40 <K> oh, some meat
00:10:41 <Ampera> have fun
00:10:52 * electrohead hugs back
00:23:42 <Ampera> how are you doing electrohead

00:32:54 <electrohead> I'm doing
00:35:05 <steve30> Ysjoelfir, my Asterisk server is currently powering my GPO 746 and my modern Snom IP phone

00:37:21 <Ysjoelfir> hah, I assumed you would use such a thing :D
00:37:33 Quit: Lord_of_nothing ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
00:38:02 <Ysjoelfir> I was thinking I might install some phone server software on my NAS when I rebuilt that thing, as my solution I have now is a bit... working, but not working great.
00:38:26 <Ampera> your fritz box on the fritz?
00:38:45 <Ysjoelfir> Nah, the Fritz!Box is stupid when you try to add SIP phones.
00:39:33 <Ysjoelfir> you can only add one reliably, but I need two. and to add one you have to delete all other entries in the phone menu and add the SIP first and then re-add all others, which is just stupidly buggy and I want to get rid of that
00:40:25 <Ysjoelfir> I have 2 SIP phones, 1 Analog Fax + 1 Analog phone daisychained, and one DECT Phone, and three Numbers. I want it like that: Fax + Analog Phone have number 1, SIP1 and DECT has Number 2, SIP1 and SIP2 have Number 3.
00:40:28 <Ampera> I use Asterisk, but I don't use SIP at all
00:40:45 <Ysjoelfir> and off course I want to be able to use intercom
00:40:46 <Ampera> it's effectively an overly complicated analog exchange
00:40:52 <Ampera> but digital
00:41:16 <Ampera> it's a PBX with three internal lines and one external line
00:41:28 <Ampera> and pulse to DTMS conversion
00:41:30 <Ysjoelfir> all that isn't possible with my solution right now, having the SIPs connected directly to my ISP, the fax and the DECT to the Fritz!Box.
00:41:32 <steve30> My Asterisk is running on a Raspberry Pi
00:41:50 <Ampera> my Asterisk is running on a dedicated dual core AMD box (A4 APU or something) running FreeBSD
00:42:29 <Ysjoelfir> I would run that on my new NAS, which will be basically my old workstation based on y ryzen 1700x
00:42:31 <K> but is your refredgerator running?
00:42:37 <Ysjoelfir> yes
00:42:39 <Ysjoelfir> all four
00:42:56 <K> you better catch it before they all run away!
00:42:58 <K> to canada!
00:43:29 <K> and now im hungry.
00:43:43 <electrohead> asterisk is amazing
00:44:01 <Ampera> amazingly stupid
00:44:06 <Ampera> fuck the configs for it are a PAIN IN THE ASS
00:44:10 <Ampera> the documentation is SHIT
00:44:17 <Ampera> it makes me wanna FUCK
00:45:24 <Ysjoelfir> I FUCKED the last week every day. My dick feels numb now
00:45:36 <Ampera> FUCK the SHIT and SHIT the FUCK
00:49:04 <electrohead> lmfao
00:55:26 <K> you fuckers.
00:55:42 <Ampera> K, watch your fucking language.
00:55:51 <K> i fuckin will!
00:56:08 <Ampera> no fuckin problem then
01:26:25 <Lord_of_nothing_> omg...
01:26:41 <Lord_of_nothing_> Fuck the fucking fuckers!!!

06:18:14 <Nothing\> man that's kinda scary
06:18:24 <Nothing\> i found both sodium AND potassium on amazon
06:18:25 <Nothing\> pure
06:18:31 <Nothing\> or close to it
06:19:00 <Nothing\> yet i can't find any ammonium perchlorate
06:19:05 <Nothing\> or any perchlorates
06:19:42 <Nothing\> you can buy chemicals that explode on contact with water, chemicals that explode on contact with glycerine, but god help you if you want to find a strong oxidizer
06:19:53 <Nothing\> even peroxide i could only find up to 12%
06:20:36 <Nothing\> which reminds me, now that i have pure isopropanol, i should add my purified peroxide i made to it and light it on fire
06:21:56 <Nothing\> i need some of those miniature pie plates to use as reaction vessels though. As is standard operating procedure for backyard chemists.
06:23:02 <Nothing\> though i've got some pretty grody beakers that i wouldn't have a problem with breaking
06:23:12 <Nothing\> or soiling
06:24:09 <Nothing\> i mean, i could just wash them. but that's too much work.
06:25:45 <T3sl4> i still have several kg of chlorates from back when i was doing electrolysis
06:26:30 <Nothing\> can you do electrolysis with AC? or do you need DC?
06:26:55 <Nothing\> cuz i always imagined with AC, the products would just form an equilibrium and just keep going back and forth, if that makes sense
06:28:16 <Nothing\> that's one reason i've never used mains for electrolysis. The other being safety since my set up involved having my hands in the water to catch the gases
06:28:41 <Nothing\> and i was too ignorant at the time to know how to do it safely
06:28:46 <Nothing\> probably still am
06:29:26 <Nothing\> i'm certain i've seen people use AC for electrolysis cells before though
06:35:10 <T3sl4> right, it mostly balances out
06:35:52 <T3sl4> possibly anodizing can be done with AC, that was once an easy way to make a shitty rectifier
06:37:02 <T3sl4> http://www.sparkbangbuzz.com/els/borax-el.htm
06:37:45 <Nothing\> damn, i'm watching a short documentary about the sprint missile
06:38:27 <Nothing\> it accellerated so fast that there was a layer of plasma surrounding the nose from the heat, which was 6200 (not sure if f or c)
06:38:37 <Nothing\> cuz it went from 0 to mach 10 in 15 seconds
06:39:00 <Nothing\> meant to shoot down ICBMs below 37 miles
06:39:22 <Nothing\> hence the requirement for great deals of velocity, or "need for speed"
06:40:08 <Nothing\> T3sl4, interesting. i only ever gave thought to electrolysis of water or salt water
06:40:29 <Nothing\> but there are easier ways to generate chlorine, like a bonefide chlorine cell with TCCA
06:40:44 <Nothing\> and i forget what acid they use to generate the chlorine
06:40:51 <T3sl4> you need an inert anode to do that, most metals just corrode
06:41:01 <Nothing\> i wanna say hcl
06:41:03 <T3sl4> which is a good way to make copper oxide
06:41:08 <Nothing\> or sulphuric
06:41:24 <T3sl4> either acid works on TCCA or hypochlorite, yea
06:42:17 <Nothing\> ah, been a while since i've watched anything requiring a chlorine generator. but vaguely remember from an explosions and fire video
06:42:24 <Nothing\> or maybe it was his other channel
06:43:02 <Nothing\> i believe he was making some variety of cubane
06:43:15 <Nothing\> or a precursor to it
06:43:27 <Nothing\> lately he's been working with it a bunch
06:45:48 <T3sl4> yeah he's working on it
06:53:57 <Nothing\> that's it
06:54:23 <Nothing\> meds have been screwing with my memory lately, i'd really like to get off of them
06:54:47 <Lord_of_nothing_> so
06:54:48 <Nothing\> they work great for anxiety though
06:54:55 <Lord_of_nothing_> does anyone here served there pervert needs?
06:54:57 * Nothing\ bows to Lord_of_nothing_
06:55:13 <Nothing\> no, not in quite some time
06:55:23 <Nothing\> i no longer masturbate, really
06:55:41 <Nothing\> except for utilitarian purposes to keep a healthy prostate and what not maybe once or twice a month
06:56:09 <Nothing\> i can't even remember the last time i watched porn
06:56:17 <Nothing\> months and months ago, that's for sure
06:57:23 <Nothing\> it's great, lets me use my time and energy for other things
07:16:10 * Ampera hugs Nothing\
07:23:25 * Nothing\ hugs Ampera <3
07:23:33 <Nothing\> hey buddy, how's it going?
07:23:34 <Ampera> how are you doing Nothing\
07:23:44 <Nothing\> i'm not too bad
07:23:47 <Ampera> my neighbor threatened to smash my dad's face in today
07:23:53 <Ampera> besides that not much
07:23:54 <Nothing\> finally got a good sleep, had a few good poops
07:24:10 <Nothing\> oh, lovely
07:24:15 <Nothing\> i had a neighbour like that once
07:24:28 <Ampera> what happened is they ordered food to be delivered and typed in the wrong damn address
07:24:33 <Ampera> so it went to us instead of them
07:24:42 <Nothing\> he thought my brother and his friend were throwing snowballs at his house, so he attacked my brother's friend with a pool cue
07:24:48 <Ampera> I'm not sure exactly what happened, but you can imagine what happened. I wasn't there, and my dad's face remains not punched in
07:25:16 Quit: arch ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
07:25:30 <Nothing\> that seems quite a petty thing to go to such lengths over
07:25:38 <Ampera> I was later told that apparently they haven't paid their rent in about a year and they regularly beat their children
07:25:52 <Nothing\> :(
07:26:03 <Ampera> and they can't be evicted because of the statewide eviction ban that's been in place and will be until next year
07:26:23 <Nothing\> i dunno what's worse, chomos, or people who beat children
07:26:39 <Ampera> that's a two family and we know the reasonably nice guy who lives in the other apartment in that house
07:26:42 <Ampera> must suck for him
07:26:50 <Nothing\> probably chomos cuz you still get the physical accosting plus the other shit
07:26:50 * T3sl4 hugs Ampera
07:26:57 <Ampera> oh hi T3sl4 thought you hated me
07:27:06 <Ampera> get over that yet?
07:27:09 <Nothing\> eitherway i can't stand for any sort of child abuse
07:27:39 <Ampera> Nothing\, most of our neighbors are really nice, but for whatever reason some proper trash has moved in recently
07:27:41 <Nothing\> i read a story once about a 15 year old who ran away from home and was kidnapped into the child sex trafficking industry or whatever
07:27:46 <T3sl4> so welcoming of you
07:27:48 <Nothing\> i could only read half of the article
07:27:58 <Nothing\> i was shaking and physically ill by that point
07:28:11 <Nothing\> i decided that was as much as i want to know about it all
07:28:20 <Ampera> T3sl4, storming out like a little shit and being a dick about politics wasn't exactly great.
07:28:23 <Nothing\> after that point, anyways
07:28:39 <Ampera> look, if you just want to put politics down that's fine, but you engage in this shit and then get upset when the conversations don't go your way
07:29:05 <Nothing\> Ampera, that sucks man. it's like my neighbours. as soon as they moved in, one of their 4 dogs had puppies so i had to listen to them constantly barking
07:29:27 <Ampera> Nothing\, I don't care if dogs are barking, whatever
07:29:31 <Ampera> there's way worse
07:29:36 <Nothing\> i actually called bylaw enforcement on them cuz the law says you can only have a max of 3 dogs per household but it didn't seem to do any good
07:29:40 <Ampera> just makes me wish I had an actual means of defending myself against people like this
07:29:44 <Nothing\> plus i felt kinda shitty doing it
07:29:50 <Nothing\> Ampera, indeed
07:30:10 <Nothing\> i lived in a motel for a few months and would often have to listen to my neighbour beating his wife/gf
07:30:19 <Nothing\> had to call the cops on them more than a few times
07:30:37 <Ampera> I find it depressing that you have to call cops on people like that more than once
07:30:51 <Nothing\> yup, she just wasn't going anywhere
07:31:01 <Ampera> our cops are probably useless anyways, I wonder if they'd even get involved
07:31:13 <Nothing\> i didn't know them personally. so i dunno if she had nowhere to go or if she was scared or too attached or what
07:31:17 <Nothing\> but it was sad
07:31:23 <Ampera> some cops abuse their power, everyone loses their shit, and now nobody can do their job
07:31:25 <T3sl4> Ampera, i haven't actually blocked you but you aren't making a great case against it
07:31:59 <Nothing\> T3sl4, well it's a step in the right direction i think
07:32:18 <Nothing\> it's nice when everyone can be cordial with one another and have a good time chatting here as they intended to do
07:32:46 <Ampera> T3sl4, is that supposed to make me feel bad about this? I like you, have always enjoyed talking with you, but I'm not gonna just pretend like you weren't a complete ass to me
07:33:21 <Nothing\> yeah, let bygones be bygones and make a fresh start. i'm sure things will go better.
07:33:28 <Ampera> Every single time we have a conversation that gets vaguely political you act like I'm a complete dipshit and inferior of your actual knowledge.
07:34:02 <Ampera> but as I said, if you just want to make an unwritten rule to just not talk about politics I'm fine with that
07:34:06 <Polesch> When will Trump's victory be announced?
07:34:23 <Ampera> Polesch, the election results are a complete clusterfuck this time because why won't they be
07:34:23 <Nothing\> chances are some of it was down to communication errors. i find a common source of strife online is just misunderstanding the emotional context of something that was said just because of how much more difficult it is to do that via text than face to face or even with voice.
07:34:44 <MrMobodies> Hello
07:34:58 <Ampera> A lot of people have done mail-in ballots this time around, which aren't counted in a lot of states until after elections close
07:34:59 <MrMobodies> ah sorry reading above
07:35:08 <Nothing\> Polesch, i read it will probably take a few days due to covid-19 and the mail-in ballots. plus people challenging their ballots being cancelled for a variety of reasons
07:35:26 <Nothing\> so help me out here, yanks
07:35:31 <Ampera> and oh boy there's no possible way that could /ever/ become something people turn into a problem.
07:35:46 <Nothing\> if you only need 270 votes from the electoral college to get in
07:35:54 <Nothing\> what good is the popular vote?
07:35:58 <Ampera> It's not.
07:36:02 <Ampera> There is no popular vote
07:36:28 <Nothing\> there was almost an election here the other week
07:36:42 <Nothing\> there was a vote of non-confidence against trudeau, but he beat it
07:36:50 <Nothing\> had he not, there would have been an election
07:36:56 <Ampera> yeah so here's the deal, 538/2 is 269
07:37:01 <Ampera> so there can be a tie
07:37:09 <Ampera> so yeah 270 to win
07:37:37 <Ampera> There is a movement making its way through various state congresses to eliminate the electoral college system
07:37:48 <T3sl4> hence "first past the post" because once that threshold is guaranteed, no point in further counting
07:37:48 <Nothing\> basically a vote of non-confidence is the other parties saying they don't think the leaders are doing a good job. so if the leaders lose the vote, there's a new election and they can potentially get voted out. or get voted down to a minority government.
07:37:54 <Ampera> part of the point of the electoral system is to bridge the urban vs rural divide
07:38:14 <Ampera> CGP Grey has a great video on why it doesn't exactly work out like that
07:38:28 <Ampera> yeah that doesn't happen here
07:38:29 <MrMobodies> just read the aggression to your family above. Sad they did that.
07:38:30 <T3sl4> Ampera, or as it was known at the time, the slave vs non-slave divide
07:38:43 <Ampera> T3sl4, are you trying to start an argument?
07:38:53 <Nothing\> and a minority government, apparently, is where no political party has the majority of seats in the legislature
07:39:18 <Nothing\> not sure what the implications of that are
07:39:30 <Nothing\> tbh i know more about american law and politics than canadian lol
07:39:48 <Ampera> MrMobodies, I don't think that has anything to do with the election
07:39:51 <Ampera> they're just deadbeat trash
07:39:52 <T3sl4> Ampera, it is well known among historians, political scientists etc that slavery motivated a lot of janky aspects of our system
07:40:01 <T3sl4> i'm not sure how you feel that's an argument
07:40:14 <MrMobodies> oh sorry I shouldn't have mentioned above.
07:40:25 <Ampera> T3sl4, if you're just gonna keep doing this shit please block me already so I don't have to deal with it
07:41:08 <Nothing\> i can see things are tense, so i will attempt to change the subject
07:41:16 <Ampera> Even at the time of the constitution's drafting there was a slavery/anti-slavery divide, so while there was influence there was also counter-influence
07:41:18 <Nothing\> did you guys know cats apparently can't taste sweetness.
07:41:37 <Ampera> and the argument isn't why was it made back then but if it's still necessary today, and what the point of it is
07:41:38 <Nothing\> they require 2 types of taste receptors to taste sweetness but lack one of the two
07:41:48 <T3sl4> is that why steve30 takes his coffee without sugar
07:41:53 <Nothing\> yet my cats in the past have still gone nuts for candy. especially cotton candy
07:42:00 <Ampera> Rural and urban populations have vastly different political desires and requirements, a strife that has existed for as long as the US has existed
07:42:19 <Ampera> even in states where slavery had been voluntarily illegalized
07:42:40 <Nothing\> i'm thinking, maybe they can't taste the actual sweetness with their tongue. but they can still get the variety of aromas that make foods tasty in other ways.
07:42:50 <Nothing\> especially with their heightened sense of smell.
07:42:54 <T3sl4> also sweets often have a lot of fat
07:43:07 <Nothing\> yeah, plus it's not good for their teeth
07:43:12 <T3sl4> though obviously not the cotton candy kind :P
07:43:45 <Nothing\> cuz they get the plaque and bacteria. but no real brushing or dental hygiene unless you specifically do it yourself.
07:44:12 <MrMobodies> Forgive me if mis understand but I thought they moved slave trade to China in another form and trump was trying to put a stop to that by bringing local jobs back to the states
07:44:29 <Nothing\> MrMobodies, hell if i know
07:44:37 <Ampera> MrMobodies, that's a take if I ever heard one
07:44:45 <Nothing\> don't ask me, i'm just a product of the american education system!
07:44:48 <Ampera> nobody really knows what Trump is doing
07:44:58 <Ampera> Trump doesn't even really seem to know
07:45:01 <T3sl4> well, wage slavery, a softer kind you could say
07:45:03 <Ampera> he just sorta does stuff
07:45:10 <T3sl4> but outsourcing has been going on for /years/
07:45:17 <Nothing\> yup
07:45:24 <Nothing\> i saw it myself first hand
07:45:29 <Nothing\> with the call centers i worked at
07:45:53 <Some_Person> Part of the reason the US seems so janky today is that the federal government was intended to *not* be very powerful. Power was intended to rest with the states, and things like highly variable election procedures and the Electoral College reflect that
07:45:57 <Nothing\> the one had an office based in manilla and eventually closed the office here
07:46:13 <Nothing\> i'm not sure if the company went under or if it moved over seas
07:46:18 <Nothing\> pretty sure tehy went under tbh
07:46:40 <Nothing\> lol yeah
07:46:49 <Nothing\> defunct since august 2007
07:47:41 <Ampera> "This is the first presidential election in which both the major candidates are over 70." -Wikipedia
07:47:46 <Ampera> that's the problem with this election
07:48:00 <Ampera> we have the choice between expired produce and expired produce
07:48:14 <Nothing\> ah, they sold the company
07:48:46 <Nothing\> Ampera, i can't say anything about biden, but i have no doubt that trump is subject to some level of dementia
07:48:54 <Some_Person> Eh... I don't really have a problem with an older president
07:48:57 <Nothing\> dubya seemed to be as well
07:49:03 <Ampera> I'd say Biden is worse in the dementia department
07:49:16 <Nothing\> yeah i dunno much about him
07:49:16 <Ampera> I get the impression he has no clue where he is and what he's doing
07:49:18 <T3sl4> Ampera, how many speeches of his have you watched?
07:49:26 <Nothing\> Ampera, and trump does?
07:49:28 <Ampera> in fairness I haven't watched anything political
07:49:29 <T3sl4> and from what sources have you seen them mentioned?
07:49:30 <MrMobodies> I found it unpleasant seeing them argue on television.
07:49:39 <Ampera> I derive my opinions from whatever
07:49:46 <Ampera> in the end I don't give a shit about any of it
07:49:52 <Ampera> discussions are philosophical meant for fun
07:49:52 <Nothing\> MrMobodies, isn't that the point of political debates?
07:49:58 <Some_Person> TBH... I don't see the idea that Biden is senile or has dimentia
07:50:10 <MrMobodies> well trump wouldn't give biden a chance to speak
07:50:23 <Nothing\> that's not surprising
07:50:32 <MrMobodies> he said something like "Shut up you stupid little man" that sort of thing
07:50:33 <Ampera> I have bits and pieces of both because I seriously do not want to surrender my life to politics and end up pissed and stressed by it
07:50:43 <T3sl4> right but then if your opinion doesn't count for "shit", why get mad about it
07:50:46 <Some_Person> Trump, on the other hand, seems to be an asshole who at times barely knows what he's talking about
07:50:54 <T3sl4> why drive people to anger over things you have no interest in
07:50:55 <Ampera> T3sl4, please stop.
07:51:11 <Nothing\> Some_Person, i've come to expect that everything trump says is a lie on some level
07:51:16 <T3sl4> Some_Person: he's rather better spoken that the opposition, that's for sure
07:51:17 <Ampera> I'm driving nobody to anger, you're the one who can't sit the fuck down and not be an ass about things
07:51:25 <Some_Person> T3sl4: I disagree
07:51:33 <Nothing\> twitter even had to put warnings on his posts saying their content may not be factually correct
07:51:35 <T3sl4> biden i mean is
07:51:41 <Nothing\> he wasn't happy about that one
07:51:45 <Some_Person> T3sl4: Ah, sorry, in that case, yeah
07:52:47 <T3sl4> didn't see your second message :P
07:52:51 <electrohead> o/
07:52:56 * T3sl4 heads hug
07:52:59 <T3sl4> erm, wait
07:53:00 <Nothing\> hey electrohead
07:53:04 <Nothing\> what's up
07:53:06 <electrohead> hey guys
07:53:17 <electrohead> nothing too much, at work chilling at stuff
07:53:19 <electrohead> and*
07:53:24 <Nothing\> right on
07:53:32 <electrohead> not being able to type properly as well, it seems :P
07:53:39 <T3sl4> works either way tbh
07:53:43 <MrMobodies> my thumbs seems to move
07:53:45 * electrohead heads T3sl4
07:53:46 <Nothing\> as long as it's coherent
07:53:49 <MrMobodies> involuntarily
07:53:59 <MrMobodies> left hand thumb
07:54:03 <MrMobodies> oops right sorry
07:54:15 <Nothing\> i wonder if in 10-20 years they'll have cellphone typing classes in school
07:54:23 <T3sl4> MrMobodies, benign tremor, essential tremor, or just a tic that started today or whenever?
07:54:29 <electrohead> MrMobodies: for me, it's all 10 fingers haha
07:54:36 <Nothing\> lol typing was the easiest credit i ever got
07:54:37 <MrMobodies> yesterday
07:54:40 <Some_Person> https://www.c-span.org/video/standalone/?c4546796/user-clip-donald-trump-sentence -- if you can derive any meaning whatsoever out of this clip from a Trump speech, props to you
07:54:46 <Nothing\> cuz i could type twice as fast as my teacher
07:55:06 <Nothing\> she just made me type out the alphabet and a few passages and there was my credit for typing
07:55:32 <MrMobodies> I am not feeling to good. Overworked lots of things to do but I am resting for a bit now
07:55:45 <Nothing\> MrMobodies, aww i'm sorry to hear that man
07:55:58 <MrMobodies> had a rotten couple of days and my phone package went up by £15 so that turned out to be an error
07:55:59 <Nothing\> exhaustion and especially sleep deprivation can be hellish
07:56:00 <T3sl4> self care is important
07:56:03 <Ampera> I'm particularly stressed because of my neighbor almost assaulting my dad
07:56:13 <MrMobodies> oh yes, that is worse
07:56:21 <Nothing\> T3sl4, there's a wellness saying they had in NA
07:56:26 <Ampera> and having to deal with one of my friends deciding to be an asshole about politics
07:56:26 <MrMobodies> Not very nice person to do that
07:56:27 <Nothing\> or acronym
07:56:27 <electrohead> Ampera: do a bunch of us need to show up and teach him who's boss?
07:56:30 <Nothing\> it was HALT
07:56:39 <electrohead> :p
07:56:39 <Nothing\> Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired
07:56:40 <Ampera> electrohead, probably
07:56:45 <MrMobodies> if someone said that to me I'd ask "What good will that do to smash a face in?"
07:56:57 <electrohead> speaking of, though - any riots yet up in your neck of the woods, Ampera?
07:56:59 <Nothing\> and being any of those would generally put a person in a negative state of being
07:57:01 <electrohead> none here yet, heh
07:57:03 <Ampera> electrohead, yet?
07:57:06 <Nothing\> physically and mentally
07:57:08 <Ampera> I doubt we'll get anything
07:57:31 <Ampera> Albany had some nonsense during the initial bout of protests this year, but Albany is a ghetto and the seat of state government
07:57:48 <T3sl4> i should go for a walk rn, just because i need a walk but also walk by the polling place and see how it's going. i wonder if they'll give me a sticker if i say i voted by absentee
07:58:09 <Nothing\> it's probably packed
07:58:18 <Nothing\> remember the lines last election?
07:58:18 <Ampera> That being said I would not want to leave my house for an evening stroll
07:58:34 <MrMobodies> stroll?
07:58:42 <Some_Person> I haven't heard of anything happening here, thankfully
07:58:46 <MrMobodies> oh evening walk
07:58:58 <Ampera> The best means I have to my own defense is my air rifle, I just hope one of my neighbors doesn't get any ideas.
07:59:09 <Ampera> but I'm just stressed and annoyed so I tend to get paranoid when that happens
07:59:19 <MrMobodies> why is your neigbour so nasty?
07:59:21 <Ampera> haven't felt like this since I nearly got doxxed years ago
07:59:22 <Nothing\> i'm spoon
07:59:26 <Ampera> MrMobodies, who the hell knows why
07:59:31 <Some_Person> A group of Republicans is trying to get my county's drive-thru votes thrown out though. So far, the courts keeps rejecting their case
07:59:51 <MrMobodies> Well I'm sorry you are in that position.
07:59:55 <Nothing\> Ampera, maybe he's in the process of castrating himself and has a rubber band tied tightly around his testicles
08:00:04 <Ampera> I heard at work today that around 450 lawsuits related to voting are going on in the nation
08:00:14 <Nothing\> that's crazy
08:00:18 <Ampera> Nothing\, no I've seen them around quite a bit
08:00:21 <Ampera> they're just terrible people
08:00:38 <Nothing\> maybe they're lactose intolerant
08:00:56 <Ampera> selfish assholes who would probably be the kind to cheat the elderly
08:01:04 <Nothing\> i hate those sorts
08:01:10 <Nothing\> well, not hate
08:01:12 <T3sl4> Nothing\: https://youtu.be/rcm-J7lQT3w?t=54
08:01:17 <Nothing\> but very much dislike and despise
08:01:24 <Ampera> No hate is a good word, I hate these people.
08:01:45 <Ampera> I know they're one of the chief people on the street who have started fights, screaming matches, and breaking people's property
08:01:46 <Nothing\> lol T3sl4 i forgot about that show
08:01:58 <T3sl4> i hardly remember it, but it's hard to forget
08:01:59 <Ampera> I think I even saw their car get repossessed
08:02:01 <T3sl4> SPOOOON!!!!!
08:02:11 <Nothing\> i should dl the series
08:02:32 <Nothing\> my only spoon related thing is "muh spoon is too big!"
08:02:47 <electrohead> I AM A BANANA
08:02:54 <Nothing\> lol you beat me to it
08:02:54 <electrohead> I mean
08:02:56 <electrohead> hey
08:02:58 <electrohead> lol
08:03:01 <Nothing\> i was wondering if i should do it or not
08:03:17 <electrohead> I haven't seen that in some time, now I need to watch it all over again
08:03:22 <MrMobodies> Tremor; caffinated drinks(likely in my case) and stress
08:03:25 <T3sl4> electrohead, https://i.imgur.com/6AtebqV.gif
08:03:28 <electrohead> have you seen "Billy's balloon"?
08:03:34 <Nothing\> indeed, it's much longer than you realize
08:03:37 <Nothing\> i've not
08:04:23 <electrohead> T3sl4: banana.
08:04:36 <electrohead> Nothing\: it's by the same person, Don Hertzfeldt
08:04:40 <Nothing\> i've had it's a long way to tiperary stuck in my head for like the last week
08:04:43 <Some_Person> I'm guessing the drive-thru voting case might even make it to the Supreme Court, although I doubt they'll throw the votes out considering that all other courts thus far have refused to do so.
08:04:44 <electrohead> think I spelled his last name correctly
08:04:52 <T3sl4> https://imgur.com/gallery/jmZz8Kk
08:05:03 <Some_Person> Before today, about 127,000 votes were cast that way
08:05:13 <Nothing\> i watched it's the great pumpkin charlie brown and while snoopy was being a WWI fighter ace, shroder played it on his piano
08:05:32 <Nothing\> and i haven't been able to get it out of my head ever since
08:06:40 <Some_Person> The only effect it's had so far is that all drive-thru voting locations except one are closed today, because the last judge who encountered the case pointed out that state law requires for in-person voting on election day to take place in a "building", rather than just a "structure" as is required for early voting
08:11:42 <DHess_US> Huh, bitchute down?
08:12:52 <electrohead> seems to be, DHess_US
08:13:07 <DHess_US> Some_Person, they don't throw the votes out because the punishes the voter who couldn't know. What they *do* do is invalidate the election, which means throw *all* the votes out.
08:13:30 <Some_Person> DHess_US: I really can't see that happening
08:13:53 <DHess_US> Some_Person, there are three remedies, and invalidating the election is the most fair one.
08:14:20 <Some_Person> DHess_US: This would be an extremely dumb reason to invalidate an election
08:14:30 <DHess_US> Usually that just means holding the election again but of course that doesn't apply to a presidential election.
08:14:54 <DHess_US> No, but it would be even dumber to enforce either of the other two remedies.
08:15:35 <Some_Person> So far, as far as anyone has decided legally, the procedures used in Harris County do not violate the law anyway
08:16:42 <DHess_US> I was just going to ask if you were refering to Harris County.
08:16:51 <Some_Person> DHess_US: Yup. I live in Houston
08:17:14 <DHess_US> Nobody has decided anything.
08:17:37 <Some_Person> DHess_US: The Texas Supreme Court has ruled on it 3 times. It's being challenged in federal court now.
08:17:51 <DHess_US> The Texas Supreme Court denied a writ of mandamus which means they did not rule.
08:18:55 <DHess_US> And here is a recent example where exactly what I said happened, https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/19/nyregion/nj-election-mail-voting-fraud.html
08:19:54 <Halcyon> Mew
08:20:03 <T3sl4> stupid Halcyon

08:35:44 <steve30> T3sl4, I'm sweet enough without sugar :p
08:43:57 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: Just realised I fell for a forum necro post, not once, but twice on the same thread with the exact same response from me word for word a year apart. It's one of those days.
08:51:29 <Some_Person> DHess_US: Okay, I wasn't aware that the state Supreme Court only denied a writ of mandamus. The case here seems very different from the Paterson case though. In Paterson, there were allegations of tampering with ballots. In Harris County, there's nothing like that going on. The only question is whether one must exit their car to legally cast a ballot.
08:52:23 <Some_Person> The county argues that drive-thru voting is distinct from curbside voting, and they do have different procedures for each of these, the former more closely resembling in-person voting
08:54:23 <Some_Person> It would seem pretty silly to me to throw out >127,000 votes just because the voters cast them from within their cars. I don't see how that would make the intentions of their votes any less clear than if they were cast outside the cars.
08:56:01 <Some_Person> and I don't like the idea of a do-over. That would just inconvenience everybody, not to mention probably severely hurt turnout
09:23:58 Quit: Dude ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
09:25:05 <DHess_US> The voting statute is very specific, and the county election guy was warned ahead of time that he was violating it.
09:26:09 <DHess_US> So invalidate the vote, and let that county vote again as applicable, and maybe hold their idiot officials responsible for fucking them over.
09:26:45 <DHess_US> The county officials had authority so they are responsible. Let the voters decide if they should be kept.
09:42:54 <DHess_US> Lol, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8oAc2v3DWGw&feature=youtu.be&t=642
09:43:45 <DHess_US> Wow, Bitchute really was taken down, https://twitter.com/bitchute/status/1323741461972594688

09:48:48 <T3sl4> \o/
09:48:56 * T3sl4 beers to refresh his post-walk
09:49:33 <Ampera> How was your walk anyways, T3sl4
09:50:56 <T3sl4> it's an extraordinary day, 70F and cloudless
09:51:27 <Ampera> 70F is more than we have here
09:51:29 <T3sl4> parking lot at the polling place looked pretty full so i didn't bother to snoop in and look around
09:51:36 <Ampera> fall is deciding if it wants to be cold or not
09:52:42 * Ampera gives T3sl4 some peanut butter mochi
09:52:43 <T3sl4> probably this weather will blow by you in a few days, and then it'll decide to change
09:53:01 <Ampera> actually I heard that it's supposed to get warmer in a few days, so you may be right
09:53:06 * T3sl4 gives Ampera falafels
09:53:17 <Ampera> I've never had a falafel
09:53:28 <Ampera> my guess is it's sorta like a bean hushpuppy
09:53:38 <T3sl4> it's vegetarian, but it's fried. guess i don't know if you'd like it
09:53:57 <Ampera> chickpeas and fava beans
09:54:04 <Ampera> deep fried, I'd probably not mind it
09:54:08 <Ampera> it wouldn't make me implode
09:54:27 <T3sl4> haven't seen it with fava beans, but i suppose you could
09:54:40 <Ampera> just going based off what Wikipedia says
09:54:53 <T3sl4> maybe it's a middle east vs indian thing? no idea
09:55:16 <T3sl4> think the stuff i used says chickpea flour, regular flour, crackermeal or something, spices
09:55:29 <Ampera> really sounds kinda like a hushpuppy
09:55:35 <T3sl4> being onion, garlic, cumin, cilantro
09:56:05 <T3sl4> i mean, a fried dough thing, yeah
09:56:19 <Ampera> well fried dough is very different to a hushpuppy
09:56:34 <Ampera> and iirc hushpuppies are made from a batter
09:56:41 <Ampera> but whatever, it's all fried stuff, it's probably good
09:56:53 <Ampera> reminds me I need to make some scotch eggs at some point
10:01:12 <coppice> T3sl4: fava beans go best with human liver
10:01:26 <Ampera> coppice, I'll have to try that some time
10:01:29 * T3sl4 confiscates coppice's chianti
10:01:32 <Ampera> I usually just make mine into pies

10:03:24 <rust_collector> uuh.. have an üppr night. and if not, make it so
10:05:53 <T3sl4> also dumped some charge into my car battery, it's less than a year old but with all this lack of driving it's taken a big hit
10:08:54 <Ampera> My car hasn't been driven in maybe a year and a half (more than an occasional turn on)
10:09:06 <Ampera> I don't expect the battery to survive much, I just hope the rest of the car does
10:09:32 <Ampera> I have the battery disconnected but it seems to leak charge anyways so it's probably low right now
10:09:41 <Ampera> worse case it's a couple hundred on a new battery
10:09:52 <Ampera> it's otherwise brand new
10:09:56 <Ampera> so it might do alright

10:23:47 <Nothing\> lol i was just reading about charles shulz's military career. he was part of a heavy gunner crew and apparently only got 1 chance to use his .50 cal towards the end of the war. Except he forgot to load it. But the German soldier he had it pointed at surrendered anyways.
10:24:09 <Nothing\> schulz
10:24:25 <Nothing\> the guy who made charlie brown and peanuts
10:24:39 <T3sl4> heh
10:25:19 <Nothing\> i'd probably do more than surrender if i had a .50 cal rifle pointed at me.
10:25:35 <Nothing\> i'd surrender my bowel and bladder contents

10:27:56 <T3sl4> a startling amount of the body can be turned to hamburger before the brain loses consciousness
10:28:20 <Nothing\> T3sl4, i know. it's terrifying how much the body can suffer before death occurs
10:28:38 <Nothing\> it's a hell of a lot more than most people would believe
10:29:02 <arch> carry some cyanide pills with ya. problem solved.
10:29:14 <Nothing\> i remember reading stories of people who are for instance cut in half by a train after falling while train hopping
10:29:28 <Nothing\> and they'd be perfectly coherent and conscious
10:29:35 <Nothing\> despite being cut in half
10:30:10 <Nothing\> and yet a person will bleed out in minutes if a relatively tiny artery (femoral) in your leg gets cut
10:30:16 <Nothing\> how's that work
10:32:00 <T3sl4> hemicorporectomy is even a standard medical term
10:33:26 <T3sl4> guessing in cases like that, the femoral or iliac arteries were somehow still mostly intact, or somehow crushed
10:34:01 <T3sl4> i guess the main line running down there is the abdominal aorta, which sounds very important
10:34:13 <Lord_of_nothing_> omg its 00:33 here any my black tee is emty

10:49:45 <damian> you disgust me
10:50:16 <T3sl4> garlic is good shit, what can i say

10:51:55 <T3sl4> AHAH!

10:53:58 <arch> this is a really nice book, 3000 pages, and open source too: http://www.ibiblio.org/kuphaldt/socratic/sinst/
10:54:02 <arch> Lessons In Industrial Instrumentation textbook
10:56:37 <MrMobodies> Well I am just organising things and running some more cables
10:57:45 <MrMobodies> then I am going to start from scratch
10:58:27 <MrMobodies> Can't ever have that thing happen to me again.
10:59:18 * T3sl4 hugs MrMobodies
10:59:23 <MrMobodies> hopefully next week I'll have it all perfect.
11:00:33 <T3sl4> remember to use one of these next time https://i.imgur.com/nycF2.jpg?fb
11:02:02 <MrMobodies> oh yes, I aim to do that on every port on that 48 port switch except for the port where the router goes.
11:03:09 Quit: rust_collector ([email protected]) Connection closed
11:03:10 <MrMobodies> I have setup another switch for management, and closed off the router IP and ports for Lan1 Lan2 and Lan3
11:03:34 <MrMobodies> suppose to set that up last year but got to do more

11:06:52 <MrMobodies> there is going to be another lockdown in England for a month (at least I think) starting Thursday.
11:07:32 <steve30> yup
11:09:56 <T3sl4> good idea
11:23:22 * steve30 passes T3sl4 some coronaviruses
11:24:05 * T3sl4 quarantines them in a decorative glass bottle on the shelf
11:26:14 <coppice> They're stopping all international travel out of the UK. It's not clear if people will be able to get home
11:32:35 <T3sl4> they should've thought of that before travelling to a viral reservoir
11:33:02 <arch> folks, i need to be able to supply both 5V and 12V in OR-ed config. can i use an ideal diode controller for the 5V line, and use just a plain diode for the 12V line (it doesn't need to be 12V precisely; can be a bit lower, like 11V)
11:33:20 <arch> or would i kill the 5V ideal diode controller?
11:33:37 <MrMobodies> I know someone who has a datacenter contract in Swizterland
11:34:10 <MrMobodies> they were going to pay for his trips and stay but I am thinking may not happen.
11:34:35 <coppice> T3sl4: which viral reservoir?
11:35:29 <T3sl4> it wouldn't be much of a diode if it died at 7V
11:35:40 <T3sl4> the one calling lockdown?
11:36:11 <coppice> ah, I meant its not clear if people outside the UK will be able to get back to the UK
11:36:29 <T3sl4> oh, that too
11:36:37 <arch> i mean, there's ideal diode controllers rated for 5.5Vmax
11:37:26 <coppice> my daughter has a ticket to return to the UK in the middle of Dec, which is after the current 1 month lockdown is scheduled to end.... but will it?
11:37:39 <arch> u know what, i think i'll just keep it simple and use two PMEG3030. has a hella low vdrop, 0.45V @ 3A
11:37:47 <arch> and cheaper too
11:38:19 <T3sl4> :/
11:39:20 <MrMobodies> My local newspapers mentioned about 4 people getting fined £10,000 each for house parties
11:39:24 <MrMobodies> last week
11:40:07 <MrMobodies> https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cambridgeshire-54631385
11:40:14 <damian> that's awesome
11:40:20 <MrMobodies> oh I thought it was four... oh well
11:40:25 <coppice> good thing too.
11:40:25 <damian> that was happening at the start of our lockdown as well until people started getting completely screwed over
11:40:48 <damian> and great news as well! there was a court case against the state government here saying that our lockdown laws / curfew / etc were 'unlawful'
11:41:05 <damian> i think after one day in court it got thrown out saying that they didn't have a leg to stand on and that everything was lawful
11:41:20 <damian> and now the government is charging the prosecuters for money lost because of the court case
11:41:22 <damian> it's so good
11:41:38 <T3sl4> hah
11:42:15 <MrMobodies> The NHS could do with the money generated from the fines.
11:42:53 <MrMobodies> last time I went out a month ago
11:43:02 <MrMobodies> someone waiting for good in front of my tablet
11:43:13 <MrMobodies> coughing right in front of me with no mask
11:43:36 <MrMobodies> and it was near my food
11:43:41 <MrMobodies> so I had to move
11:43:45 <T3sl4> people, what a bunch of bastards
11:43:49 <rust_collector> I doubt the money will go anywhere they need them, but... meh
11:44:16 <coppice> The NHS must have saved a fortune this year

12:30:00 <arch> what's the simplest way of transforming a 0V-12V signal into a signal that is 0V-3.3V? im thinking opamp
12:30:07 <arch> analog signal*
12:31:09 <arch> i guess make the gain 1/4th and we're good
12:31:30 <arch> dont really need the full 3.3v. 3v would work just fine
12:32:09 <arch> well, i guess i could use a resistor divider, but i dont know the impedance of the input, so was thinking of using an opamp buffer

12:42:47 <Halcyon> YAY! 2 weeks off work! *spins* \o/
12:43:01 <rust_collector> great waste of time
12:43:19 <Halcyon> It mostly rained the last 2 weeks I was on leave and I didn't get anything done outdoors I wanted to
12:43:28 <rust_collector> same here
12:44:22 <rust_collector> weather today was great, and I was up around 9, but then I spent too long waiting, then went for a nap, and managed to wake up at 18.29
12:44:54 <Halcyon> I had a nap too :D
12:45:59 <rust_collector> wife was going to wake me up, but she had someone visiting, so she forgot....
12:46:29 <rust_collector> so, I had 1 minute from I woke up, to when I was supposed to start at work

13:18:43 <electrohead> ehh, probably thursday I'm guessing
13:18:45 <rust_collector> or will you be waiting for parts
13:18:48 <rust_collector> ok
13:18:57 <electrohead> they already ordered the parts, from last week
13:19:18 <rust_collector> now you just have to hope they fit
13:19:34 <electrohead> lmao... please don't say it like that >.<
13:19:41 <David4> ㅤ
13:19:52 <rust_collector> well. subarus are in some ways similar to lego
13:20:00 <electrohead> I have some trust in this place, as all they work on are subaru's
13:20:11 <electrohead> nothing else
13:21:16 <rust_collector> you can swap almost any major part of almost any subaru into almost any other subaru, and it will bolt in. it is pretty nice in a way

13:23:05 * electrohead throws electrons at T3sl4
13:23:20 <rust_collector> well, I will just say that I would not make any plans for driving around on friday.....
13:23:23 <electrohead> the guys at the shop said they didn't need my accessport tuner
13:23:29 <electrohead> o.O
13:23:49 <electrohead> I could have sworn the accessport I have is essentially 'married' to my car
13:23:54 <electrohead> but, we shall find out
13:23:58 <T3sl4> mmm, delicious
13:24:14 <rust_collector> accessport...
13:24:26 <rust_collector> sounds like apple wifi or something
13:24:32 <electrohead> rust_collector: the programmer for changing the ECU mappings
13:24:39 <electrohead> Cobb Accessport
13:24:43 <electrohead> have you heard of it?
13:25:08 <rust_collector> nope. on the original ecu?
13:25:21 <electrohead> it installs over the original ECU software
13:25:28 <rust_collector> ok
13:25:50 <rust_collector> I didn't think that was much of a thing any more
13:25:54 <rust_collector> but ok
13:25:57 Join: David4 ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
13:26:01 <electrohead> it definitely is!
13:26:29 <rust_collector> how much cheap did you get that for?
13:26:30 * Halcyon spreads hot english mustard all over T3sl4
13:26:45 <electrohead> I need to get a mount for mine, then figure out a way to get both the accessport device, and a rasp.pi connected to the OBDII/CANbus at the same time
13:26:47 * T3sl4 throws elections at Halcyon
13:26:49 <electrohead> then I'll be set
13:27:04 <electrohead> it came with the car, when I bought it
13:27:14 <electrohead> bought it used for 14,000 USD
13:27:48 <T3sl4> that's an expensive OBD adapter
13:27:51 <electrohead> err, the car
13:27:53 <electrohead> sorry, lol
13:28:05 <electrohead> :P
13:28:13 <electrohead> yeah, that would be expensive as fuck, heh
13:28:19 * electrohead cracks another guiness open
13:28:36 <rust_collector> $650 or so, I see
13:29:12 <T3sl4> i was actually thinking of that in terms of, the ODB thingy is the important part and the car is the $14000 adapter that it connects to
13:29:25 <rust_collector> right
13:29:42 <electrohead> lol
13:30:23 Quit: David4 ([email protected]) Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client
13:30:37 <rust_collector> so, you can flash it, and remove the device?
13:30:50 <electrohead> once I get my car in good condition, get the dent in the fender fixed, the rear trunk to stop leaking, then I will focus on implementing a r.pi4 and a CAN bus solution, plus a media solution for music
13:30:59 <electrohead> rust_collector: yup!
13:31:26 <electrohead> but, I'm thinking about removing the electronics from the accessport, and custom integrating into the dashboard
13:32:04 <rust_collector> that is neat, as the stock ecu is fairly ok, and it mostly fits the car pretty well
13:32:41 <electrohead> then have the r.pi4 for CAN bus messages, then incorporate a wifi solution so that when I am parked outside, I can upload/download/edit mappings as I please, plus also upload/change my music within my car

13:33:59 <T3sl4> my celica is nearly fallen apart, but still runs somehow
13:34:08 <electrohead> I know a *lot* more nowadays, so I shall challenge myself and design up a solution for all of this

13:34:32 <rust_collector> that is how toyotas are.
13:34:51 <electrohead> mine was a 2004, 5 speed manual
13:34:54 <rust_collector> well, used to be
13:35:11 <electrohead> I was half asleep, and drove through a puddle in base housing...
13:35:29 <rust_collector> they just fall apart, because there is nothing left to keep them together, but it will start and run
13:35:33 <electrohead> well, the puddle was deeper than I thought, and since I had my intake within the fender, umm..
13:35:44 <electrohead> it sucked up water, and seized the engine
13:35:47 <electrohead> >.<
13:35:58 <electrohead> BUT, that was the start to how I got my subaru
13:36:08 <electrohead> fuck, I had a lot of money put into my celica :(
13:36:11 <T3sl4> ah yes, the last generation celica
13:36:20 <electrohead> dude I had that thing looking so nice
13:36:26 <electrohead> was a cop magnet, though
13:36:28 <electrohead> heh
13:36:31 <T3sl4> heh
13:37:06 <rust_collector> of all things... did you paint it pink and have god is gay on the sides or something?

13:37:18 <electrohead> rust_collector: lol, no
13:37:45 <electrohead> was going with traffic, then sped up a bit to pass a tractor trailor, and *pop*

13:38:09 <electrohead> $1,171 ticket, including "fees"
13:38:36 <T3sl4> ouch
13:38:43 <electrohead> I told the cop I was on my way to my second base, and he picked up quickly that I wouldn't be able to make it for the court date

13:45:42 <Nothing\> we've gradually been turning into a 3 party system
13:46:07 <rust_collector> Yes, but a real one, that would be elected, not that just exist
13:46:08 <Nothing\> as the 3rd underdog party starts getting more chairs in the legislature and thus more power

13:56:00 <steve30> Will David2 be coming too?
13:56:04 <Halcyon> Well initially I have suggested doing it unannounced, otherwise we will get all and sundry in here and it will become hell to moderate. I suggested to keep it to the regulars in here only (at least to start) and see how we go.
13:56:08 <electrohead> What Halcyon is really saying: If you fine gentlemen/gentlewomen want Dave himself to speak to (us), be nice and courteous.

13:56:22 <Nothing\> talk amongst yourselves
13:56:40 <Nothing\> you cheeky bum-lookers
13:56:47 <Halcyon> Hehe no David2 (yet)
13:56:48 <rust_collector> I don't know how much of a pervert he is
13:57:01 <rust_collector> now I have to behave until he is gone
13:57:22 <Halcyon> Heheheh I doubt it will be today. But if/when it happens, I'll let you all know in advance.
13:57:39 <Nothing\> Halcyon, awesome yeah i think that's a good idea
13:57:50 <Nothing\> it'd suck to have so many people in here you couldn't get a word in edgewise
13:57:58 <Nothing\> better to just keep it casual
13:58:24 <steve30> I was pondering going out for a walk, but I might go to bed instead
13:58:34 <Halcyon> Well that's the thing, a small handful of people chatting is one thing, but it can get really carried away very quickly. We would need to work out a way to filter and moderate the messages with a larger group
13:59:07 <Nothing\> Halcyon, well a channel limit would be a nice start
13:59:09 <Nothing\> and/or key
13:59:30 <steve30> I suggest keeping the riffraff on twitter/youtube comments
13:59:42 <Halcyon> Yes this is true. Perhaps for future sessions if he is keen. But the first one, I reckon, just a semi-random time/date and not announce it outside this channel.
13:59:58 <rust_collector> sounds good.
14:00:05 <Nothing\> agreed
14:00:12 <Nothing\> good call
14:00:14 <Halcyon> It would be more of a treat to you guys who have stuck around and are regular contributers
14:00:42 <rust_collector> contributing.... what? you mean T3sl4 and mr H?
14:00:49 <Halcyon> Haha
14:00:52 <Nothing\> lol
14:00:58 <Halcyon> And Ampera :P
14:01:05 <rust_collector> well...
14:01:14 <steve30> Purrs count as contributions :)
14:01:17 <Nothing\> keeping this place's pulse going
14:01:35 <Halcyon> steve30 is under the blankets most of the time :P
14:01:51 <Nothing\> know what i don't get
14:02:00 * Ampera hugs and kisses Halcyon
14:02:03 * Ampera hugs Nothing\
14:02:06 <Halcyon> Morning Ampera :)
14:02:06 * Ampera kisses rust_collector
14:02:07 <Nothing\> i used to be able to go under the blankets just fine as a child
14:02:13 * Nothing\ hugs Ampera <3
14:02:14 <rust_collector> WHOOO!
14:02:18 * Ampera gives steve30 a box of miniDV tapes
14:02:35 <Ampera> Halcyon, you're two hours early for morning
14:02:37 <Halcyon> Ampera, I have 4x5 boxes of DVC tapes next to me right now
14:02:38 <Nothing\> but as an adult, if i go under the blankets i feel like i'm suffocating after a couple of minutes
14:02:42 <Halcyon> I was only just looking at them today
14:02:56 * rust_collector does something nice to Ampera
14:02:58 <Ampera> was talking about the new Hummer EV in the AfterNET channel
14:02:59 <steve30> Nothing\, I like snuggling up in blankets
14:03:03 <Halcyon> Nothing\: Probably because we are so used to air conditioning and fresh air these days?
14:03:14 <Ampera> GM is saying it's gonna have 1000hp and 0-60 in 3 seconds
14:03:28 * steve30 winds some DV tape around Ampera
14:03:38 <Nothing\> i can't stand blankets. i sleep totally nude with no blankets or anything. i don't like the feeling of restriction.
14:03:59 <Halcyon> I sleep nude but I need a rather hefty blanket on top of me, but I like it cold outside the blanket
14:04:01 <Halcyon> It's weird
14:04:06 <rust_collector> I have to have something on me.
14:04:10 <Ampera> I find it hard to sleep without blankets, but I'm usually fine with a thin one
14:04:21 <Ampera> and I sleep either nude or clothed
14:04:21 <Nothing\> maybe a pillow between my knees at most to keep my spine somewhat aligned
14:04:22 <Halcyon> I get tangled in thin sheets/blankets
14:04:22 <Ampera> it depends
14:04:29 * steve30 passes Halcyon a high-definition steve30: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2XJ1N9mhkE
14:04:31 <rust_collector> it can be just a duvet cover, but it has to be something there
14:04:46 <Nothing\> Halcyon, a surprisingly high number of people die from that
14:04:47 <Halcyon> Awww Steve :)
14:04:53 <Nothing\> getting tangled in their blankets
14:05:05 <Halcyon> Heheh 1080 "aiiiii"
14:05:12 <Halcyon> You sounded black for a moment
14:05:39 <Halcyon> The audio is very nice, even front facing
14:05:57 <Nothing\> lol yeah i end up keeping my room super warm cuz for some reason i get cold when i sleep
14:06:18 <Halcyon> I do the opposite, cold room, warm under the covers. I like my head to be cool
14:06:37 <Nothing\> even if i use blankets. for whatever reason i get colder than normal when i sleep.
14:06:49 <Nothing\> Halcyon, i used to do that
14:06:53 <Halcyon> Well everyone's body temperature drops during sleep
14:06:55 <Ampera> "you sounded black for a moment"
14:06:57 <Ampera> what even
14:07:10 <Nothing\> i'd have my winodws open in the middle of winter when it's -20 out
14:07:17 <Ampera> TIL Halcyon has never seen or heard a black person :P
14:07:25 <Nothing\> with 3 or 4 blankets on me.
14:07:33 <Halcyon> We have black people here Ampera
14:07:37 <steve30> Does Jerry keep you warm?
14:07:53 <Halcyon> Hehehe Jerry wouldn't even keep your privates warm. He is a smallish bird
14:07:53 <electrohead> lmfao
14:08:09 <Nothing\> yeha it's funny i just assume everyone in here is white and european unless told otherwise
14:08:17 <Halcyon> Racist :P
14:08:26 <Nothing\> most other places i'd just assume everyone was a yank
14:08:38 <Nothing\> cuz they usually were
14:08:44 <Halcyon> Those geese are cute Steve
14:08:56 <steve30> :)
14:09:46 <Nothing\> i wonder how much it'd cost to buy a hammock of baby chickens from a factory farm
14:10:04 <Nothing\> i'd love to use them as a blanket
14:10:34 <Nothing\> something like 500 chicks
14:10:49 <Ampera> as I thought
14:10:52 <Ampera> my vote's useless :P
14:10:59 <Ampera> NY's initial polling results are strong blue
14:11:14 <Nothing\> yeah, biden's winning strong so far
14:11:19 <Ampera> not really
14:11:36 <Nothing\> he's got 40 votes on trump
14:12:24 <Ampera> Nothing\, no he doesn't
14:12:30 <Ampera> if you're looking at google those are not fina;
14:12:37 <Ampera> those are just best guess finals
14:12:44 <Ampera> because Google doesn't actually display the results
14:12:52 <Nothing\> https://globalnews.ca/news/7440074/us-election-trump-biden-polls/
14:12:57 <Nothing\> he's starting to catch up
14:13:05 <Nothing\> but still, ~35 behind
14:13:20 <Ampera> Nothing\, there have only been around 70 million votes counted
14:13:22 <Ampera> still plenty more to go
14:13:23 <Nothing\> but yeah i'm aware they're not set in stone
14:14:02 <Halcyon> I am disappointed you didn't chase the geese steve30
14:14:06 <rust_collector> steve30, it looks like your camera does ok, and I like the view of the..... uhm... landscape
14:14:31 <Ampera> Half reporting in Virginia with a Trump lead, maybe they'll end up being a red state this time around
14:15:07 <steve30> There are quite a lot of compression artifiacts due to the video clips being reencoded several times.
14:15:23 <steve30> Halcyon, hehe, I just leave them to mind their own business
14:15:29 <Ampera> I absolutely love the quality of my phone's camera
14:15:59 <Halcyon> Yes but your camera doesn't take tape Ampera
14:16:16 <Ampera> it shoots in 8K though
14:16:24 <Ampera> 4K60 too
14:16:32 <Ampera> and 1080P120
14:17:09 <Ampera> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PG4QahJQZdw this is a worst case example, poor lighting, lots of very dark objects as focus
14:17:14 <steve30> I was capturing stuff from my SVHSC camcorder earlier
14:17:20 <Ampera> it'd probably look great in HDR
14:17:54 <Ampera> you can see the AF is snappy and fast though. My only main complaint about it is it seems to have a really narrow, er, focus range?
14:18:02 <Ampera> the distances within which things are in focus
14:18:03 <steve30> yay, Halcyon's favourite species :D
14:18:15 <rust_collector> steve30, are you from that area? or, I guess, is your accent from there?
14:18:27 <Ampera> It's the only 4K60 video I have on youtube at the moment
14:18:31 <Halcyon> Focal length Ampera
14:18:41 <Halcyon> And that's because of the physical depth of the glass
14:18:48 <Ampera> it makes sense
14:19:00 <Ampera> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=us8y6M3aNQE
14:19:04 <Ampera> this is 8K footage I've shown before
14:19:44 <Ampera> that 8K footage really came out well actually, I'm quite happy with it
14:19:53 <coppice> It looks just like 4k :)
14:20:04 <Halcyon> It's kind of lost on my 4K monitor
14:20:07 <Halcyon> Also, stupid cats
14:20:15 <steve30> rust_collector, that's about half a mile from here. I don't particularly have a 'Yorkshire accent' though.
14:20:54 <Ampera> well yeah because people outside of yorkshire can understand a word of what you say
14:21:12 <rust_collector> heh
14:21:37 <coppice> Ampera: there are surprisingly few people around here with a Yorkshire accent
14:22:13 <Ampera> maybe Yorkshire is becoming an extinct language like Manx or Cornish.
14:22:35 <steve30> hmm, Ampera has more Youtube subscribers than me. Must be the kitties.
14:22:57 <Ampera> I suppose I used to do streaming, which is where I got most of those
14:25:16 <Halcyon> I am watching your bunny Ampera
14:26:36 <steve30> I wonder if anyone other than Halcyon would watch a live stream of me
14:26:55 <Halcyon> :P
14:27:07 <rust_collector> I think it depends a bit on what you are dong
14:27:14 <rust_collector> with an i
14:27:25 <Halcyon> Dong on the brain? :P
14:27:30 <rust_collector> sssh!
14:27:37 <steve30> :D
14:28:15 <rust_collector> better than "amperas bunny" just because you said that, I think there is something wrong
14:28:18 <Ampera> I just played games and spedrun half-life 2
14:28:23 <Ampera> nobody really watched and I was shit at all of it
14:28:36 <Ampera> rust_collector, no I actually have a bunny
14:28:54 <Ampera> rust_collector, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_GjAuS46S4
14:29:11 <rust_collector> yes, but when halfcyan says something, I never know if it is a bunny or something kinky
14:29:23 <Halcyon> When am I ever kinky?
14:29:30 <electrohead> you are now :P
14:29:32 <electrohead> lol
14:29:35 <Halcyon> Am not
14:29:39 <Halcyon> You are
14:29:54 <rust_collector> you were born, and I think you were kinky from around that time, probably?
14:30:27 <Ampera> Halcyon, you've been kinky continuously since the invention of the wheel
14:30:42 <Halcyon> Pfft
14:30:43 <Halcyon> Lies
14:30:52 <rust_collector> and dirt and magnetism
14:30:57 * electrohead throws kinkiness at Halcyon
14:31:06 <Halcyon> I feel like ice cream
14:31:12 <Halcyon> But it's burried under stuff in the freezer
14:31:27 <Halcyon> *buried
14:31:32 <rust_collector> I wish I could feel like ice cream
14:32:42 <rust_collector> well, have a good...time I am going to bed
14:33:34 <Ampera> Halcyon, sounds like old man complaints to me
14:33:58 <rust_collector> yes, just order some delivered
14:34:27 <steve30> I wouldn't let silly things like that get in the way of food
14:34:30 * Ampera hands rust_collector an ice cream tub full of C4
14:34:32 * electrohead hands Halcyon chocolate peanut butter chocolate
14:34:41 * electrohead hands Halcyon chocolate peanut butter ice cream *
14:34:55 <electrohead> I so fucked that up, and I haven't been drinking, I swear.

14:35:49 <rust_collector> ok, still going to bed....
14:36:51 <Halcyon> Night rust_collector
14:37:26 <Ampera> I think I might go to bed and try to dream about a good dicking
14:37:28 <Ampera> good night
14:37:39 <Halcyon> Night Ampera
14:37:49 * Halcyon slaps Ampera with a large weiner on the way out
14:40:25 <steve30> I'm going to go out for a walk. Back soon.
14:41:21 Quit: David4 ([email protected]) Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client
14:42:21 * electrohead walks away from all of this
14:42:34 <Halcyon> Fine :P
14:43:06 <electrohead> I swear, I join the weirdest online communities
14:43:08 <electrohead> lol
14:43:31 <Halcyon> There is nothing weird in here
14:43:35 <Halcyon> Well... except Ampera :P
14:43:41 <electrohead> :P
14:43:51 <Ampera> I want to be penised :/
14:44:04 <Halcyon> Nothing wrong with that
14:44:09 <Ampera> why not
14:44:18 <Halcyon> Because it's not illegal anymore!
14:44:23 <Halcyon> Also, fun
14:44:29 <Ampera> you mean not illegal yet
14:44:37 <Halcyon> Soddomy used to be illegal
14:44:44 <Ampera> used to be?
14:44:51 <Ampera> still illegal here
14:44:59 <Halcyon> Wouldn't be surprised :P
14:45:13 <Ampera> I appreciate your low view of my home
14:45:18 <Ampera> it makes me feel happy to live here
14:45:22 <Halcyon> It's because you have cats
14:45:28 <Halcyon> I wouldn't mind it so much otherwise
14:45:44 <Ampera> you literally have a broken smoke detector as a pet
14:45:48 <Ampera> shut up
14:45:49 <Halcyon> This is true
14:45:51 <Halcyon> :P
14:46:44 * electrohead replaces its battery
14:47:10 <Halcyon> He means my birb
14:47:14 <Halcyon> He doesn't shutup
14:47:21 <electrohead> :P
14:48:20 <Ampera> penis
14:48:38 <Halcyon> I thought you were going to bed?
14:56:27 <electrohead> I am, now
14:56:33 <electrohead> goodnight, all o/
14:56:36 <Halcyon> Not you
14:56:37 <Halcyon> :P
14:56:43 <Halcyon> But goodnight
14:57:04 <electrohead> I have work tomorrow, and we have a truck coming of at least 4 or 5 pallets, yay
14:57:09 <Halcyon> Fun
14:57:12 <electrohead> at least we have extra help :)
14:57:13 <Halcyon> I wish I could help you
14:57:32 <electrohead> all good, an extra person will be there tomorrow
14:57:43 <electrohead> just hope he can keep up with me >.<
14:57:46 <electrohead> heh
15:01:19 <electrohead> alright, bed time for this goof
15:01:23 <electrohead> g'night o/
15:13:00 Join: Dave ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
15:13:16 <Dave> Hello world
15:13:31 <Halcyon> Oh so you got my email ?
15:14:56 <Ampera> oh dear
15:15:02 <Dave> Got it!
15:15:14 <Halcyon> Ampera, I thought you were going to bed?
15:15:20 <Ampera> I am in bed.
15:15:28 <Ampera> laptops are great
15:16:10 <Halcyon> There were a few around earlier Dave... T3sl4, rust_collector, steve30 etc...
15:16:28 <Halcyon> But it's that weird time of day where the Aussies are up but the rest are off doing other things.
15:16:43 <Ampera> I mean most of Europe and the US are sleeping right now
15:17:08 <T3sl4> lies, i never sleep
15:17:27 Mode: (by ChanOP) +v Dave
15:17:28 <T3sl4> wait, i thought Dave swore off IRC for ever?
15:17:32 <Ampera> you just check your eyes for holes on occasion
15:17:37 <Dave> Not a single person in the US is sleeping right now I'm sure...
15:17:42 <T3sl4> mmm, eye holes
15:17:59 <electrohead> O.O
15:17:59 <Ampera> Dave, most of us wish we were :P
15:18:11 <Halcyon> Nothing\ was around too but not sure where he is from
15:18:15 <Ampera> er, eyelids
15:18:17 <T3sl4> toronto
15:18:18 <electrohead> I got "a notification" .. and I woke right up, and came back to the laptop
15:18:21 <Ampera> too tired to make humor
15:18:35 <Halcyon> Put some pants on electrohead, we have guests
15:18:40 <Ampera> gdi
15:18:51 <T3sl4> lies, you never wear pants Halcyon
15:19:06 <Halcyon> I have nothing to say to that :P
15:19:20 <Ampera> is there a concept of no contest in the australian legal system?
15:19:39 <Halcyon> Yep, not sure what the legal definition is
15:19:56 Quit: arch ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
15:20:19 <Ampera> Wikipedia "In the Commonwealth countries—such as England and Wales, Canada, and Australia—the plea of nolo contendere is not permitted. The defendant must enter a plea of "guilty" or "not guilty". If a defendant refuses to enter a plea, the court will record a plea of "not guilty"."
15:20:22 <Halcyon> Dave, did you end up deciding on a new laptop, or are you more confused as ever now?
15:20:43 * electrohead waves hello out of respect to Dave
15:20:54 <Halcyon> Well yes, black and white, but there are some "buts"
15:21:22 <Ampera> Halcyon, I'm not sure if this is in reference to court or your pants
15:21:23 <Dave> Leaning heaving toward to Lenovo Legion 5. Just deciding how much to spend.
15:21:45 <Ampera> Halcyon and I are using a Lenovo
15:21:49 <Ampera> though mine is AMD
15:21:52 <Halcyon> I bought a laptop to replace my desktop about 4 or so months ago (it's my daily driver now). It took me weeks to decide.
15:21:53 <Dave> I should stop being a tight arse, I just saved $40k a year moving back to my old lab.
15:22:22 <Ampera> not sure what Lenovo has for AMD, but if your goal is pure CPU grunt, AMD chips are thrashing Intel's mobile offerings right now
15:22:25 <T3sl4> so you're gonna buy a flight sim setup next year with that right?
15:22:27 <T3sl4> ;)
15:22:30 <Dave> Yeah, leaning toward the Ryzon 7 version with the RTX card, but it seems unavailable at present.
15:22:34 <Halcyon> That being said, I did treat myself and spent about $5k in today, which included all the accessories and a 4K monitor to go with it.
15:22:49 <Halcyon> *in total
15:22:54 <Ampera> T3sl4, you misunderstand, 40k in australia is the price of lunch.
15:23:14 <Dave> The Lenovo Legion 5 comes in both Intel and AMD version, and also GTX vs RTX video variants.
15:23:17 <T3sl4> or dinner in canada
15:23:18 <Ampera> my laptop is worth 800 bucks because all it does is watch youtube and prevent me from sleeping
15:23:19 <Halcyon> All tax deductable of course ;-)
15:23:57 <Dave> When you are a Youtuber EVERYTHING is tax deductible :-D
15:24:00 <Ampera> Dave, have you checked Amazon? They on occasion have stuff stocked Lenovo doesn't
15:24:12 <Dave> Yeah, nothing.
15:24:21 <Ampera> that's where I bought my laptop, they even had an upgraded model with 20GB of RAM Lenovo didn't even list
15:24:23 <Ampera> that's a shame
15:24:34 <Halcyon> Oh by the way Dave, Ampera built the bot in here. Everytime you make a tweet, it's re-broadcast in here. It also does a few other nifty things.
15:24:40 <Halcyon> eevblog time
15:24:40 <EEVBlog> Ah shoot, Doc! We've ended up at 15:24 Sydney time.
15:24:50 <Ampera> Dave, just make sure when you get mobile Ryzen, it's Ryzen 4000
15:24:54 <Dave> Sweet, thanks!
15:24:55 <Ampera> as those are the newer ones that are worth buying
15:24:59 <Ampera> EEVBlog status
15:25:00 <EEVBlog> Latest EEVBlog Tweet: If I did a live stream now I'm wondering how many would actually show up? LOL
15:25:11 <Ampera> EEVBlog Convert 12 inches to cm
15:25:11 <EEVBlog> The result is: 30.48 cm
15:25:40 <Ampera> made with only the finest patchwork java
15:25:59 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: Testing the EEVblog IRC channel bot, which should repost this on the IRC channel.
15:26:08 <Halcyon> Oh gawd, now you've done it :P
15:26:09 <Ampera> nice
15:26:36 <Dave> It's a Ryzen 7 4800H
15:26:46 <Ampera> should I mention the slight caveat that if he posts multiple tweets in rapid succession it might miss one?
15:26:58 <Ampera> Yeah those should be good
15:26:59 <Halcyon> Shhhh, that's a 'feature' :P
15:27:20 <electrohead> Dave: cheers from Pennsylvania, USA. Don't know what else to say, but hello, and have been watching your videos for a while now. Because of you and a few other people on the youtubes, I have converted my apartment to a lab plus more, and dedicate most of my time to electronics and radio.
15:28:18 <Ampera> See? Even the Amish are getting into electronics because of you!
15:29:17 <Halcyon> The Amish are probably laughing whilst you guys are all locked down with your 'rona
15:30:12 <T3sl4> which, i think they're doing pretty well with it, considering? haven't seen full blown stats for them tho
15:30:21 Join: l_nicooo ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
15:30:26 <Halcyon> The Amish?
15:30:31 <Dave> Hey @electrohead nice to hear.
15:30:43 <Ampera> T3sl4, well they'd have to communicate those stats via smoke signal
15:30:47 <Ampera> so they might just not have gotten around to it yet
15:30:53 Part: electrohead ([email protected]) from #EEVblog (/dev/null)
15:31:01 <Halcyon> Oops, we killed him
15:31:03 <Ampera> congrats you killed him
15:31:18 <T3sl4> to the bitbucket even, got damn
15:32:03 <Halcyon> And I thought our internet was crap
15:32:29 <Ampera> as I said, Amish country
15:32:34 <T3sl4> that amish internet, it'll get ya
15:32:53 <Ampera> tin can telephone relay network, ox plow must have struck the line
15:32:54 <Halcyon> It's called the NBN
15:34:28 <Halcyon> Dave did you happen to recall a mailbag item from me in a plasic Austpost satchel? The tracking details are borked. It's just you might want to yank the batteries out before they leak :P
15:35:01 <Halcyon> I can't remember what brand I stuck in there but it was left on, for reasons which will be obvious once you read the note.
15:35:42 <Ampera> nice, you sent him a gift that will self destruct if he doesn't open it
15:36:08 <Halcyon> Well it doesn't really matter if they do leak, it's not really that useful as an item. Just that no one like crusty batteries
15:36:22 <Ampera> according to what statistics
15:36:28 <Ampera> where's your source?
15:36:32 <Ampera> was there a vote?
15:36:40 <Halcyon> Anecdotal
15:37:18 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: Utter madness. Although lagging behind the negative madness in other countries. https://t.co/378ymYQ7Xi
15:37:23 * Ampera throws a turnip at Halcyon
15:37:55 <Dave> Got it, it's on the shelf
15:37:59 <Halcyon> Perfect!
15:38:05 <Ampera> Halcyon, what do you think, should I take a vacation starting tomorrow?
15:38:25 <Halcyon> I guess it depends... ? Is Trump going to win?
15:38:31 <Dave> When in doubt about a vacation, take it.
15:38:32 <Ampera> nobody's going to win
15:38:39 <Ampera> Dave, sounds like good advice
15:38:41 <Halcyon> Well, this is true
15:38:52 <Dave> Was looking like Trump would win a few hours ago, now it looks like Biden
15:39:03 <Dave> Super close it seems.
15:39:16 <Ampera> Dave, it's misleading, our election system is quite odd
15:39:27 <Ampera> and technically this isn't even the actual election
15:39:33 <Ampera> this is just electing the electors which elect for us.
15:39:43 <Halcyon> 'murica!
15:40:07 <Ampera> current votes counted is 110 million, I'm not sure what the current voting base is, but that's actually pretty significant
15:40:28 <Ampera> if you're looking at google though, they haven't called a good number of notoriously red states
15:41:07 <Ampera> that being said, it's incredibly close even in the normally blue northeastern states
15:41:33 <Dave> We don't even get to directly vote for a leader
15:41:49 <Halcyon> True, it kind of just happened
15:41:53 <Ampera> that's what I find funny, people complain about our voting system when most countries don't even have one
15:41:57 <T3sl4> 24 hr election reporting is such a statistical joke, i ignore it anyway
15:42:08 <Dave> Was thinking about running in my electorate just for shits and giggles and so I can vote for myself :-D
15:42:11 <T3sl4> but at least you get your erection sausage
15:42:13 <T3sl4> election*
15:42:19 <Ampera> ...
15:42:28 <Halcyon> Dave: Why not join John Cadogan... he wants to "Make Australia Less Shit"
15:42:34 <Ampera> I refuse to believe that was accidential
15:42:40 <Halcyon> He's up in Richmond or Kurrajong somewhere :P
15:42:47 <Ampera> Halcyon, that's a terrible platform, I want the nation to be more shit!
15:42:47 <EEVBlog> And the horse you rode in on, Ampera!
15:42:52 <Ampera> yeah!
15:42:58 <T3sl4> Ampera, but it's a delightful coincidence if so
15:43:00 <Dave> But seriously, it pisses me off that my local electorate does not have an independent candidate to even vote for.
15:43:17 <Halcyon> I keep telling you Dave... #MountainLife ;-)
15:43:23 <T3sl4> what is it, by party?
15:43:37 <Dave> I think if you get 5% of the vote or something they give you $5k to run again next time.
15:43:41 <Ampera> Halcyon, how's that mountain VDSL going for you
15:44:12 <Halcyon> 100/40
15:44:23 <Ampera> my phone gets better than that
15:44:24 <Halcyon> Well... 105/40
15:44:51 <Dave> Is he running for the senate?
15:45:16 <Ampera> maybe he's running for his life
15:45:18 <Halcyon> Heh, no, but he keeps joking about it. He is a journalist that went off on his own. All into cars and such.
15:45:45 <Halcyon> Used to work for 2UE and Seven (?) I think until he pissed too many bosses off
15:45:47 <Dave> Yes, I watch his channel sometimes.
15:45:54 <Ampera> Those automotive types are real shifty.
15:46:07 <Halcyon> Oh gees Ampera
15:46:30 <Ampera> Halcyon, didn't mean to drive you crazy.
15:46:43 <Halcyon> I'm going to hang the towels out
15:46:50 <Halcyon> Think about what you've done
15:47:08 <T3sl4> well this conversation has turned a corner
15:47:09 <Ampera> I'll do it again! I won't let you steer me wrong.
15:47:22 <Halcyon> *sigh*
15:48:00 <Ampera> Your dismay only fuels me.
15:48:18 <Ampera> I'll never tire of this.
15:49:11 <T3sl4> time to pump the brakes
15:49:42 <Halcyon> You guys suck. Honestly. The one time Dave comes in and it's not even about electronics.
15:49:52 <Halcyon> I guess it could be worse...
15:50:33 <T3sl4> it could be worse. we could be talking about electronics.
15:50:38 <Ampera> Halcyon, it could always be worse, we could be clutching at straws
15:50:54 <Ampera> Give us a brake.
15:51:15 <Ampera> You can't spell engineer without engine
15:51:28 <T3sl4> ingenur
15:51:38 <Ampera> alright even I'm starting to hate myself now, I'll stop
15:52:56 <Halcyon> :P Well you guys have fun. I'm going to clean Jerry's cage out.
15:53:03 <Halcyon> (Jarry is a bird)
15:53:06 <Halcyon> *Jerry

16:24:52 <arch> T3sl4 sensei, is this a valid option for unused opamps? i just need 1 opamp, so i put the other as unity gain: https://i.imgur.com/XhDGMEH.png
16:25:10 <T3sl4> wastes BW and offset
16:25:29 <T3sl4> the follower wiring is fine, just tie +in to GND or whatever
16:25:31 <arch> well, i dont really need fast response
16:25:39 <arch> ok
16:25:41 <steve30> I'd just leave the unused ones
16:26:19 <arch> according to googlefu, that's apparently a bad idea according to TI and Maxim appnotes
16:26:29 <arch> you can apparently blow out the chips somehow
16:28:21 <arch> https://www.ti.com/lit/an/sboa204a/sboa204a.pdf
16:29:08 <arch> well, whatever, i'll waste two resistors. no big deal.
16:29:41 <Halcyon> Right, Jerry's cage is clean
16:30:00 <T3sl4> bahahaha i just noticed the datasheet shows layout example for the TO-39 package
16:32:12 <Halcyon> Is that a terrible joke I missed T3sl4 ?
16:32:27 <T3sl4> Halcyon: the metal-can packages are archaic and expensive
16:32:46 <Halcyon> Yes, but the look... soviet
16:32:53 <Halcyon> *they
16:33:06 <arch> actually, why don't i do this? the increased current draw is maybe a few dozen nanoAmps, so it shouldn't really matter, right? https://i.imgur.com/gtIfwwV.png
16:33:19 <arch> on the opamp input*
16:33:26 <T3sl4> arch: bahaha, the SEM picture what even is that, some random MOSFET?
16:33:57 <arch> i dont really know what that is lol
16:34:17 <T3sl4> opamps don't blow up from saturating, and if they do then apparently that's a damned good reason to avoid the OPA2325?
16:34:35 <arch> lol
16:34:40 <T3sl4> arch: increasing capacitive loading, but that's fine too
16:34:57 <T3sl4> but notice if UNIV_THING goes to zero, it's still grounded :^)
16:35:31 <steve30> I think its bedtime soon
16:35:36 <arch> yeah, im cool with added capacitive loading. univ thing is just a DAC output. it varies from 2.2V typical (minimum brightness) to 3.3V (max brightness)
16:35:59 <arch> sorry i mean 2.2V to 5V
16:36:06 <arch> i dont need the full 5V range
16:36:26 <T3sl4> ah
16:37:53 <arch> yeah, the universal LCD driver board has a DAC that outputs from 2.2V to 5V to the backlight ADJ pin of the CCFL inverter. i am not using the CCFL inverter, but rather the PSU and CCFL inverters onboard the TV. and the TV uses 2.2V to 3.3V DAC instead, which is why i put the resistor divider
16:37:55 * steve30 curls up next to Halcyon
16:39:25 <Halcyon> :)
16:39:32 <Halcyon> Why don't you do a live stream Steve?
16:39:46 <Halcyon> Q&A with Stee... I'm sure others apart from myself would watch
16:40:12 <steve30> I'm not geared up for live video. It might be doable at some point though.

16:46:32 <arch> donarudo is 20% lagging behind. still too early to call it.
16:46:44 * arch stops selling his MAGA merch for pennies on the dollar...temporarily
16:46:50 <Halcyon> :P
16:47:08 <Halcyon> He should have gone with our slogan... Make America less shit

18:54:51 <Ysjoelfir> mornings Halcyon
18:55:48 <Halcyon> Hey Ysjoelfir
19:03:13 <rust_collector> hsn, you should learn this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWOUi0PVTXw
19:04:27 <hsn> rust_collector, aus tirol .. do u have sand version ?
19:05:49 <Ysjoelfir> so my power company just send me an e-mail, demanding that I tell them the electricity counters current value, stating that I didn't yet report to their last question to that. I checked - there was no question from them before. So I went to the counter, checked the value, went back to the PC, typed it into the form they provided - "You can't add this value at this date as it can't be added to the current bill!" - checked the mail
19:05:50 <Ysjoelfir> which arrived yesterday: "You have to add this to the bill before november 5th 2020!"...... Idiots
19:06:07 <Ysjoelfir> oh no, not Anton aus Tirol :D
19:06:30 <Ysjoelfir> If you realy need Dj. Ötzi please at least look at "Servus die Wadln".
19:07:39 <rust_collector> abdul of sand was a good song, but it does nto teach you much german
19:08:43 <Ysjoelfir> anton aus Tirol doesn't either :P thats german with an austrian ( Nevoness, shame on you!) or bavarian accent, which is equally not german! XD
19:09:32 <rust_collector> yeah yeah... same same
19:10:35 <rust_collector> I did not think he would survive the shame of watching rammstein videos
19:10:59 <Ysjoelfir> hahaha :D
19:11:53 <Ysjoelfir> then maybe that? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19RE_GTO3n0
19:12:34 <Ysjoelfir> or is that to sexual for hsns king?
19:13:33 <rust_collector> probably, it would be ok if she had a bag over her head
19:13:43 <Ysjoelfir> xD
19:13:48 <Halcyon> Ysjoelfir: I want beef
19:14:36 <Ysjoelfir> By the way, you se that this is totally playback. She's one of those artists that can't perform live. I hate that, so many people making music just can't sing and HAVE to have autotune
19:14:58 <hsn> <Ysjoelfir> which arrived yesterday: "You have to add this to the bill before november 5th 2020!"...... Idiot
19:15:06 <hsn> i understood nothing .. but yeah .. idiots ..
19:15:15 <rust_collector> I don't have a problem with that. but they can stop trying to perform live, if they can not
19:15:23 <rust_collector> I like vanilla ice too
19:15:25 <hsn> as its 5th november didnt came yet
19:15:30 <hsn> noobs
19:15:54 <hsn> maybe they need some dates Ysjoelfir
19:15:57 <hsn> :D
19:15:57 <Ysjoelfir> [09:15:15] <rust_collector> I don't have a problem with that. but they can stop trying to perform live, if they can not <-- thats exactly my oppinion
19:16:16 <Ysjoelfir> I won't share my date cookies! Bad enough that I already put half of them aside for rusty xD
19:16:29 <hsn> wait where is the opinion ? .. meh .. /me joins the opinion gang
19:16:48 <hsn> i agree with all
19:16:52 <Ysjoelfir> hehe^^
19:17:06 <hsn> also the lady dancer

19:17:27 <hsn> my king would enjoy
19:17:41 <Ysjoelfir> having her in his harem?
19:20:27 <hsn> kings here are not very religious

19:21:10 <hsn> idk .. about harems

19:21:14 <Ysjoelfir> oh :D
19:21:19 <T3sl4> you have your own election sausage, don't ask Ysjoelfir for one

19:26:06 <damian> wat
19:27:08 <hsn> lol wtf
19:27:22 <hsn> this is song or griefing
19:28:13 <rust_collector> he is from denmark, you have to excuse them, as they are unable to speak. But it is a good night story

19:32:01 <hsn> Ysjoelfir, yes the english part
19:32:14 <Ysjoelfir> activate the subtitles :)
19:34:31 <Ysjoelfir> Maybe thats easier, as it has text and only simple words. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isDcz-5fAF0
19:34:45 <Halcyon> Beaver
19:34:47 <Halcyon> ?
19:35:21 <hsn> ur nice from inside in danish Ysjoelfir
19:35:41 <Ysjoelfir> notice that the danish one (red) sounds very muffled, which is why the rustilandish people always make fun of them. :P
19:36:26 <Ysjoelfir> It gets very noticable here https://youtu.be/isDcz-5fAF0?t=124 xD
19:36:34 <rust_collector> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cq1lYz_Q0Ko
19:36:39 <hsn> ah
19:36:40 <Ysjoelfir> If I would try to say it like that I would already have swallowed my tongue
19:36:43 <hsn> i see
19:36:51 <hsn> which one is the one making fun of mr rust
19:37:35 <hsn> Its a: "das Würstchen Bitte" sign
19:37:44 <Ysjoelfir> blue is swedish, grey is norwegian, red is danish
19:37:55 <Ysjoelfir> grey and blue make fun of red :P
19:37:58 <hsn> rust_collector,
19:38:03 <rust_collector> OI!
19:38:10 <hsn> do u know which material is this die made from
19:38:11 <hsn> https://www.indiamart.com/proddetail/pyramid-type-jewellery-die-19867394897.html
19:39:17 <rust_collector> with any luck, it is tool steel
19:40:42 <hsn> how hard is it to make jewerly dies .. like does it require lots of machine investment ?
19:40:58 <Ysjoelfir> hehe :D I enjoyed that clip rusty :D it seems strangely familiar
19:42:24 <hsn> i've a friend who has jewerly workshop .. with this exact machine
19:42:26 <hsn> https://images.app.goo.gl/NGsRjb8cHgc48tuf7
19:42:27 <rust_collector> it is not hard, you can make dies with a drill and a file, or if you are really into it, you can rub a piece of steel with pebbles until it has the correct shape. I would consider hardening it AFTER shaping it with pebbles
19:42:35 <hsn> with lots of dies that he imports from india ..
19:42:57 <rust_collector> get a milling machine, and you can do a lot
19:43:30 <hsn> just like https://images.app.goo.gl/XeNsUrK9FP8Ru2jMA
19:43:51 <rust_collector> heh, it is fun to see a fly press again. I thought they were only a thing in a special corner of youtube
19:44:25 <rust_collector> what material would you press in that?
19:44:35 <hsn> gold
19:44:38 <hsn> silver
19:44:56 <rust_collector> hmm. so not too too hard stuff.
19:45:03 <hsn> nah
19:46:04 <hsn> one pin is embosing ..
19:46:06 <rust_collector> well, I think you need a bit of tools to make many of those, but it is not too too much stuff either
19:46:08 <hsn> the second cutting
19:48:04 <hsn> does it have to be the "strong one workshop green heavy duty" ..
19:48:10 <hsn> or somthing like this can do https://www.mekanika.io/shop/product/cnc-milling-machine-1685
19:50:39 <rust_collector> that is not a milling machine.... it is a router. and it is probably not ideal for this
19:51:19 <hsn> so this
19:51:20 <hsn> https://images.app.goo.gl/qjDxdpVYRkzkzHza7
19:51:51 <rust_collector> it does not need to be huge, but it is important that it is painted ral classic 6011
19:52:57 <K> that is not a milling machine, that is a cnc router
19:53:14 <rust_collector> https://www.indiamart.com/proddetail/mini-vertical-milling-cum-drilling-machine-18936985830.html
19:53:20 <rust_collector> something like that would do
19:53:28 <K> yes
19:54:01 <hsn> K can a cnc router act like a milling cnc machine though ? no ?
19:54:01 <rust_collector> it is still small and sort of budget friendly-ish
19:54:10 <rust_collector> to some degree it can
19:54:45 <hsn> ^ but this is not great for cad design right ?
19:54:53 <K> eh, in the sense that proper mill can also work with plastic and wood (ugh) - yes
19:54:55 <hsn> requires somone to adjust lots manually
19:55:19 <K> will that puny thing work with steel - nope, it is going to die.
19:55:48 <hsn> yes it will .. agreed :D
19:56:20 <rust_collector> some more heavy routers can get it done, sort of, but that thing looks more like a reconfigured inkjet printer
19:56:20 <K> you prolly have some companies offering cnc services in your area
19:56:28 <K> ask around
19:56:39 <hsn> https://hotonmachinery.en.made-in-china.com/product/RKomkTBEOtUN/China-Bench-Geared-Head-Auto-Feeding-Drilling-Milling-Tapping-Machine-ZX45-.html
19:56:40 <K> or better, ask your mechanical department ppl, they prolly know
19:57:06 <K> that is not cnc
19:57:14 * Ysjoelfir just adds an in my oppinion excellent video about the language thing for hsn to understand nordish languages https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onduQjgAj8Y
19:57:26 * Ysjoelfir disappears again to not disturbe the discussion
19:57:30 <rust_collector> yeah, the 40 or 45 will do fine. but it is still a manual machine
19:57:46 <hsn> K i've trust issues to lots of ppl here locally .. they tend to give bad answers fast if u dont know specially ...
19:57:47 <K> not sure how well those convert into cnc without extra hassle
19:58:15 <K> hm, that is bad.
19:58:30 <hsn> rust_collector, yes u right .. manual but with keypad to enter numbers...
19:58:43 <rust_collector> meh, it should be fairly straight forward, but... if it is worth it... cnc more for production work, imo, and that thing is not
19:59:02 <K> numbers entry is for digital readouts
19:59:14 <K> you still ned to turn knobs an levers with your hands
19:59:23 <rust_collector> hsn, that is a dro, digital readout, it is very handy, but it does not move the machine
19:59:33 <K> dro is a must though for any mill
19:59:33 <hsn> ok so i would guess it doesnt worth to invest in cnc milling .. i dont think one jewerly workshop will do lots of design and utilize its value
19:59:40 <rust_collector> it just show you how far the machine has moved
19:59:59 <Ysjoelfir> its basically like screwing a caliper to your mill
20:00:04 <hsn> ok ,, understood .. just feedback .. no control
20:00:04 <Ysjoelfir> a digital one
20:00:08 <K> a very good and precise caliper
20:00:16 <K> 3 of them
20:00:17 <rust_collector> well. some are cheap
20:00:55 <Ysjoelfir> I actually think about adding Calipers to my new lathe. for the precision I need the cheap 10€ ones will be good enough
20:01:34 <K> eh
20:01:38 <K> maybe
20:02:06 <rust_collector> the cheapo calipers tend to have a "serial port".... just saying
20:02:41 <hsn> ok .. so the other question .. if i design this .. how much it would take to manufacture it .. as a service : https://images.app.goo.gl/uuWytGAkFvhVX83Q8
20:03:11 <rust_collector> the best answer is... probably... yes!
20:03:28 <hsn> as he buy them from india .. 50$ per die .. without shipping ..
20:03:39 <K> https://kamelrechner.eu/en
20:03:42 <K> (meanwhile)
20:03:51 <K> probably more than 50$
20:03:52 <K> hello
20:03:53 <EEVBlog> Hello there, K!
20:03:57 <hsn> not stainless steeel ^
20:04:05 <hsn> ah ok so 50 is cheap
20:04:20 <rust_collector> making the blocks should be cheap-ish, but if you need to "engrave" something in there...
20:04:21 <K> but is just my guess
20:04:39 <K> do not know whole lot about die making
20:04:41 <hsn> the ingrave part is very small
20:04:47 <hsn> engrave
20:04:58 <rust_collector> sure, but it is still most of the work
20:05:09 <hsn> ah yes ..
20:05:10 <K> if that is a manual work, then that will cost soe
20:05:13 <K> some
20:06:00 <K> like - placing the part in the machine, puttin in the code for it, taking the part out, inspecting, postprocessing - that all is manual labour
20:06:21 <rust_collector> K is still in cnc land, lol
20:06:27 <K> that 50$ seems reasonable to me
20:06:42 <K> well, without cnc you would have to get out the file and pebbles eh
20:07:12 <rust_collector> well, it depends on the shapes you want to make, I guess?
20:07:25 <K> prolly,
20:07:29 <K> translates to machine time
20:07:33 <rust_collector> even a dremel will do a lot.
20:07:44 <K> dremel will do "art", no doubt
20:07:54 <K> unique and special!
20:08:04 <rust_collector> yes, but this is sort of art things... how many times will each thing be used?
20:08:21 <K> doorstops dont wear out that fast
20:09:38 <rust_collector> I guess it is a fairly low force thing, as he uses a fly press.
20:09:56 <hsn> I worth 57 camels ?;
20:10:31 <rust_collector> hsn, how often does he have to replace these things?
20:10:40 <hsn> the dies ?
20:10:43 <rust_collector> yes
20:11:01 <hsn> hmmm he told me a number yesterday but i forgot
20:11:05 <hsn> lemme ask
20:11:06 <hsn> again
20:11:30 <K> weak
20:11:39 <Ysjoelfir> mrs spouse is worth 51! I should consider that
20:11:50 <hsn> or he probably didnt .. bcz he is new into stuff but want to expand his process ..
20:12:19 <Ysjoelfir> and I am 62 camels worth!
20:12:31 <rust_collector> expand by adding shapes, or number of presses?
20:12:31 <Ysjoelfir> aaand my ex girlfriends....
20:12:46 <K> 49 cammels for me
20:12:49 <hsn> every shape they order new die ..
20:12:59 <rust_collector> yes,
20:13:14 <hsn> and i dont think they do so many rinnggs ... i guess dies stay there for long time
20:13:16 <Ysjoelfir> ex 1 is 49, so I made a good deal by swapping her for mrs spouse!
20:13:23 <K> idea that EDM would be a good process for this pops in my head
20:13:32 <rust_collector> yea, it would
20:13:36 <hsn> EDM ?
20:13:42 <Ysjoelfir> damn
20:13:47 <Ysjoelfir> ex 2 is 71 >_>
20:13:49 <K> would work with hardended steel like noones business
20:13:52 <hsn> spark
20:13:53 <hsn> machining
20:13:55 <hsn> ?
20:13:56 <K> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_discharge_machining
20:13:59 <K> yea
20:14:10 <rust_collector> you throw sparks at a block of metal until it sparks away enough to get the shape you want
20:14:30 <K> how much is a camel worth in some monetary units, though?
20:14:44 <Ysjoelfir> EEVBlog convert 71 camels to euro
20:14:44 <EEVBlog> I can't seem to convert between those two units.
20:14:46 <Ysjoelfir> hm
20:14:50 <hsn> oh is it the wire cutting type ?
20:14:57 <Ysjoelfir> Ampera, I am very disappointed.
20:15:15 <rust_collector> there is wire edm, but it is not used as a wire as suchhhhhhh
20:15:45 <rust_collector> it is an electrode, and it "burns" the metal away
20:15:53 <rust_collector> sort of

20:17:32 <T3sl4> Also known as Electrical Dance Machining
20:17:36 <hsn> oh crap thats nice and lot
20:17:47 <Halcyon> Heheh Durchfluss
20:17:54 <Halcyon> I love German words
20:18:30 <rust_collector> in theory, there is just one german word, that they split up into the part they need
20:18:57 <Halcyon> Mmm ?
20:19:24 <rust_collector> every german word is really just a part of the german word
20:20:23 <Ysjoelfir> Composita!
20:20:35 <Ysjoelfir> erm
20:20:37 <Ysjoelfir> *Komposita
20:20:41 <rust_collector> is that also a moldy tea?
20:20:46 <Ysjoelfir> or in english Composite words!
20:20:59 <Halcyon> I was watching this Ysjoelfir: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LseK5gp66u8
20:21:41 <Ysjoelfir> yep, thats correct. and thats actually not to far from where I was born.
20:22:53 <rust_collector> it could actually be his fault... but we should not talk about his childhood
20:23:00 <Ysjoelfir> lol
20:25:48 <Ysjoelfir> Halcyon https://snipboard.io/qXrD3Q.jpg the red dot is where the guy from the video is, the S is where my mum is (and where I grew up), and down where the green flag is is where I live right now
20:26:03 <Halcyon> YAY now I can stalk you :P
20:26:13 <Ysjoelfir> lol
20:26:18 <hsn> K depends if the camel is kim kardashian it will worth millions
20:26:33 <rust_collector> YAY! now I can stalk your mum
20:26:41 <Halcyon> Hahahaha
20:27:10 <rust_collector> we have sort of exchanged greetings, so that is fine
20:27:12 <hsn> https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-01-05/saudi-camel-beauty-pageants-tradition/10283310
20:27:36 <Ysjoelfir> hehe^^
20:27:47 <Halcyon> You're terrible
20:28:09 <rust_collector> yes, he is. notice that sarcastic hehe?
20:29:04 <rust_collector> hmm, how long does it take to go to luxembourg?
20:29:06 <K> oh my
20:29:09 <K> yall terrible
20:29:16 <rust_collector> hey K!
20:29:53 <rust_collector> at least t4mKdz is not here rubbing everyone with garlic yet
20:29:57 <Halcyon> I love this old vending machine with the nixie tubes: https://youtu.be/f7wYH1FvsA0?t=422
20:30:23 <rust_collector> ooooh
20:30:45 <Halcyon> I have a fascination with Japanese vending machine food. It always seems to look quite good.
20:30:52 <Halcyon> And the variety is amazing
20:31:12 <K> too bad an apple costs an arm and a leg there
20:31:25 <K> or so i am told
20:31:28 <rust_collector> well... there are other things there
20:33:23 <rust_collector> I do wonder why all the very weird stuff always happen in japan
20:34:03 <hsn> https://www.centroidcnc.com/compactmill.htm
20:34:13 <rust_collector> not only weird game shows, but...
20:34:42 <rust_collector> they like kei cars, but they have a racing series for dodge vans...
20:34:50 <Halcyon> Sydney to Osaka is about $930 return
20:34:54 <Halcyon> (For economy)
20:35:50 <hsn> https://youtu.be/O0KtxgDNt_0 oh nice
20:35:54 <rust_collector> beats walking there
20:37:45 <rust_collector> hsn, I think you should buy a 5 axis cnc mill-lathe, work will find you. and most of the work-work in on the confuser...when you are done learning how to use it
20:38:18 <Halcyon> Ampera: https://http.cat/
20:38:29 <Halcyon> Actually T3sl4, you suck enough to like that too
20:38:48 <T3sl4> stupid Halcyon
20:38:55 <hsn> rust_collector, i wanna one for tiny DIY home desktop poor guy :D
20:39:34 <rust_collector> you might as well buy a proper big one, so you can make stuff someone wants to pay money for
20:40:14 <rust_collector> and when you are not using it, you can put a mattress in it, and live in it... which I guess you would have to, if you bought one
20:41:00 <rust_collector> for diy desktop things, get a router
20:42:02 <rust_collector> just stay with aluminium or softer materials, most of the time.
20:42:18 <Ysjoelfir> rust_collector, to luxemburg from my place its.. roughly 3 hours
20:42:48 <rust_collector> hmm
20:42:52 <rust_collector> interesting
20:43:18 <Ysjoelfir> But driving in luxemburg is like I would immagine driving in shittown
20:43:25 <rust_collector> oh, I know
20:44:26 <rust_collector> my ex-ex-ex boss has a house there, we used to go there when we were stuck in that area
20:45:07 <hsn> Fck win updates

20:46:10 <rust_collector> it was better than bouncing thru belgium, imo
20:48:11 <rust_collector> I just have some issues with estimating distance on maps
20:48:46 <Ysjoelfir> xD
20:54:08 <hsn> rust_collector, when u say ex-ex-ex boss
20:54:25 <hsn> is is porn boss "xxx boss" ?
20:54:27 <hsn> or
20:54:34 <Ysjoelfir> hahaha :D
20:54:58 <hsn> is it "ex boss of the ex boss of your ex boss"
20:55:00 <rust_collector> I guess it is not a problem, as you are not allowed on half of the internet anyway?
20:55:48 <rust_collector> I never did anything in print...
20:55:56 <hsn> rust_collector, my mind scratches if i dont know which one :D

20:57:47 <rust_collector> what?
20:57:56 <hsn> :D
20:58:09 <rust_collector> OOH little doggie
20:58:14 <hsn> i know .. but he is answering based on his usage .. he wont know
20:58:38 <rust_collector> oh, right
20:58:38 <hsn> Pixies - Where Is My Mind
20:58:51 <rust_collector> try this trick
20:59:04 <rust_collector> and spin it
20:59:20 <hsn> trick ?

21:05:32 <Ysjoelfir> hsn
21:05:42 <hsn> yes darling
21:06:06 <hsn> is darling only used for "love" ?
21:06:23 <Ysjoelfir> I'm watching that language guy while working right now and came acros a video that should explain why you were so confused about german / dutch :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWVKzdyWRps
21:06:56 <hsn> yess
21:06:58 <Ysjoelfir> darling is used for... sweetheart, my love, stuff like that. basically you say that to your spouse, or to a good friend when joking :)
21:07:47 <rust_collector> or if you are an older english bloke wearing a kai-hat,
21:08:02 <rust_collector> ordering a pint
21:08:34 <hsn> The pint is a unit of volume or capacity in both the imperial and United States customary measurement systems. In both of those systems it is traditionally one eighth of a gallon
21:09:24 <hsn> Ysjoelfir, this guy inserts sounds of different ppl
21:09:30 <hsn> in his video
21:09:32 <hsn> is annoying
21:10:19 <Ysjoelfir> I watch that gui for quite some time. some while back he explained why
21:10:22 <Ysjoelfir> *guy
21:10:50 <hsn> es ist sonnnig
21:10:56 <rust_collector> this guy inserts sounds https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xL4mhSW8KdI
21:10:59 <Ysjoelfir> the idea is, that he doesn't want to make a mistake when educating about languages, so he uses native speakers to have the perfect pronounciation
21:10:59 <hsn> lol it has been always es ist sonnning

21:23:53 <rust_collector> it is an age thing...
21:24:03 <Ysjoelfir> probably
21:24:09 <Ysjoelfir> but its annoying.
21:24:39 <Ysjoelfir> I have a question for you guys.
21:24:43 <rust_collector> hmm, do you get enough... hmm what was it... zink? it was some metal
21:25:04 <rust_collector> magnesium?
21:25:07 <Ysjoelfir> magnesium IIRC. and no, probably not
21:27:09 <Halcyon> T3sl4: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/El99U7hVkAE8xyP?format=png&name=large
21:27:32 * T3sl4 nod
21:27:42 <hsn> question
21:27:44 <hsn> for us
21:28:28 <Halcyon> Do it
21:28:29 <Halcyon> :P
21:29:29 <Ysjoelfir> I applied for a job at german government and they invited me to a initial talk. I would have to travel 500km for that. I personally don't realy feel comfortable immagining myself working there and I would agree to stay at least five years. it involves an 18 month education with pretty piss poor payment. since its a government thing I wouldn't pay into the retirement insurance so I would have at least five years not paid, which mea
21:29:29 <Ysjoelfir> amount of money I would miss out on, if I decide to leave that job ever again. I could get moved at their free will around germany and into conflict zones if neccessary. OTOH I would have a 100% safe job.
21:30:48 <Ysjoelfir> Mum and Spouse are like "you have to try at least and talk to them to see how it is working there" - but I applied for a government agency some years back already and as its the same application type I already know that I won't see anything of the stuff I would be working on before I signed the contract.
21:30:49 <rust_collector> is it in any way somethign that is interesting to you?
21:31:09 <Ysjoelfir> it could be interesting, but I doubt its something I would want to do my whole life
21:31:39 <rust_collector> it is at least 25 years since people got jobs for life
21:32:19 <rust_collector> if you can get by while training... mmh, yes, go talk to them
21:33:28 <Ysjoelfir> indeed. this is one of the last jobs in germany that have the "Verbeamtung" (according to the dictionary [appointment as a tenured German civil servant] - working for the government with special privileges)
21:33:38 <Ysjoelfir> or better, one of the last employers
21:34:54 <Ysjoelfir> but I realy don't feel comfortable and can't immagine myself in that job forever... and also, a big part of my depression therapy went around not bending to what people think is best for me, but deciding myself. and again I ask for advice :X damn... xD
21:35:44 <hsn> can u imagine ur self for 5 years ?
21:35:54 <hsn> in that job ^
21:36:45 <Ysjoelfir> five years is a long time... I don't think so. but otoh I would love a good safe job for life XCD
21:37:57 <rust_collector> tomg goes fast when you look back at it... I have had this shitty job for 15 years now, and it just feels like 20
21:38:07 <rust_collector> time, damnit
21:39:00 <rust_collector> but having a job that you have is worth something...
21:39:24 <hsn> is it good "time wise" ?
21:39:43 <hsn> in here goverment jobs are much less working hours than private .. u feel u still have a day
21:39:57 <hsn> after work
21:40:13 <Ysjoelfir> nope, its completely identical in this case.
21:40:40 <rust_collector> hmmm. government and Ysjoelfir combined... maybe you will get to mess with some very large vacuum tubes
21:41:11 <Ysjoelfir> heh. no, not in this agency. I would end up in a bunker in iraq maybe.
21:41:17 <Ysjoelfir> doubt they have toobs there
21:41:24 <rust_collector> hmmm
21:42:48 <rust_collector> I think.... if it was me... sure I would go to iraq, but I would not be there for very long, I think.
21:44:02 <rust_collector> if I would spend a year and a bit before going to iraq for not very very long... I don't think so?
21:46:50 <Ysjoelfir> I can't realy immagine how long I would be there, if at all. If WW3 strikes it would be very possible that I would be wherever that happenes to be. Or any other conflict where germanistan is involved
21:47:05 <rust_collector> hsn, I think you people just work longer days than government people, because government people work regular times, like the decadent west.
21:47:16 <Ysjoelfir> probably^^
21:47:35 <rust_collector> meh, ww3 will happen on email, it will be fine
21:47:48 <Ysjoelfir> lol
21:48:04 <rust_collector> a very nasty thread on reddit, probably
21:50:26 <rust_collector> ok, my vote is.... probably no....
21:50:54 <K> no on what?
21:51:01 <rust_collector> the only positive thing I can see, is that you would have a job
21:51:06 <K> Ys going to Iraq?
21:52:13 <rust_collector> having 1.5 years of crap pay to learn to do something he probably do not really want to do. no matter where it is
21:52:32 <K> ah :/
21:52:43 <hsn> rust_collector, yes that .. except they dont really work :D
21:52:55 <hsn> cya took half day .. im flying home
21:53:08 <K> can you "nope, bye" while in that training?
21:53:13 <rust_collector> hsn, I know, I am after all government owned
21:53:23 <Ysjoelfir> what rusty said, and potentially going to some conflict areas.
21:53:31 <Ysjoelfir> K - nope. if I sign, then I'm in
21:53:36 <Ysjoelfir> for 5 years minimum
21:53:40 <K> sounds like army
21:53:47 <Ysjoelfir> and the 5 years are on top of the 1.5 years training
21:54:05 <rust_collector> sounds like other agency, working where the army also is, imo
21:54:11 <Ysjoelfir> yes, the army would be the employer. but I wouldn't be a soldier
21:54:15 <rust_collector> but that is details
21:56:08 <rust_collector> otoh, you could make dried banana slices with crusty sugar in the sun
21:57:01 <rust_collector> do you have any idea about how long you would be away, and how long you would be home?
21:57:51 Quit: MrMobodies ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds

21:58:31 <rust_collector> well, yea, but...
21:58:51 <rust_collector> blah
22:04:18 <rust_collector> hmm, what did you get again, was it a bachelor or master, or?
22:08:13 <rust_collector> Ysjoelfir, ?
22:09:28 <rust_collector> https://ec.europa.eu/eures/portal/jv-se/jv-details/MTI0NjUtNTQwNTE4LTEtUyAx?jvDisplayLanguage=de
22:09:42 <rust_collector> I guess you have seen that anyway
22:23:56 <Ysjoelfir> bachelor, sorry, had to clean the staircase as mrs. landlorlady arrived
22:24:45 <Ysjoelfir> but I haven't seen that yet, nor this website in general. I will look into it
22:24:47 <Ysjoelfir> thanks
22:26:34 <rust_collector> there is also an internship at infineon, in munchen.... but it looks more computer-ish
22:32:44 <Ysjoelfir> nah. I hate southern germany. don''t want to go tzhere
22:33:01 <rust_collector> I have noticed that...
22:33:41 <rust_collector> I was just thinking that it is easier to get on the train from munich then from iraq
22:33:54 <Ysjoelfir> lol
22:37:10 <rust_collector> psssshttt, I need to make more coffee
22:37:20 <Ysjoelfir> make some tea for me, too, ok?
22:38:43 <rust_collector> it is roasted bean tea
22:39:02 <Ysjoelfir> I prefer fermented leaves :P
22:39:07 <Ysjoelfir> with milk and lots of sweetener
22:39:16 <rust_collector> yes, but I am trying to fix you
22:40:39 <rust_collector> crap, the weather is awesome today. I migh thave to do something a bit later
22:40:48 <Ysjoelfir> ew, doing stuff
22:40:52 <rust_collector> I know
22:41:43 <rust_collector> I should paint the window trim, now that the window is replaced, and it is not raining sideways
22:45:31 <rust_collector> and all the other things
22:45:40 <rust_collector> but now it is time for bean tea
22:47:23 <K> nothenr savages
22:50:09 <rust_collector> hell-o
23:00:58 <Ysjoelfir> I decided.
23:02:58 <rust_collector> good. so good luck with that
23:04:25 <Ysjoelfir> No, I decided against it. I won't go there
23:04:46 <rust_collector> I don't care. as long as you figured i tout
23:05:52 <rust_collector> so, good luck with that
23:06:03 <Ysjoelfir> heh. typical nordmen :P
23:06:14 <rust_collector> eh?
23:06:25 <Ysjoelfir> Other people? Pf, not my business^^
23:06:48 <rust_collector> nah, but it was your thing to figure out, and you did, so that is good
23:07:11 <Ysjoelfir> I know. Just wanted to make a joke to... dunno, kind of cheer me up perhaps?
23:07:35 <T3sl4> hrm, made good progress on this encoder
23:07:43 <rust_collector> yeah, just make fun of the uneducated
23:08:00 * Ysjoelfir hands T3sl4 an enigma
23:08:12 <rust_collector> TA DAA!!!
23:08:15 <T3sl4> i'm adapting https://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/T3sl4co1l/st7735_gfx/blob/master/compr.html for encoding bitmap fonts
23:08:41 * T3sl4 belchly parks at Ysjoelfir
23:08:45 <K> what does it encode?
23:09:00 <T3sl4> K: the stuff dreams are made of.
23:09:03 <K> eew, html
23:09:09 <T3sl4> look closer
23:09:17 <T3sl4> it's the trifuckta HTML CSS JS
23:09:18 <rust_collector> whatever you stuff into it
23:09:20 <T3sl4> >:D
23:09:46 <rust_collector> dream snuff...
23:09:54 <rust_collector> goo times
23:10:07 <T3sl4> snuff films are a goo time
23:11:40 <T3sl4> but now that i've molded most of the boilerplate into suitable form, i'm a bit tired to write the actual codec
23:11:51 <T3sl4> perhaps i'll return in the morn
23:39:38 <Ysjoelfir> I wonder... has someone made his own small telephone central thing? like using Asterisk or whatever? the steve30 maybe?
23:40:44 <rust_collector> you have wires with banana plugs... make an old style switchboard
23:41:01 <rust_collector> hello? can I have number 4 please?
23:42:20 <Ysjoelfir> xD I would love to still have that. I like the old telephones with the hand crank thing, or the battery powered ones that were just a stick with a funnel to shout into and a second funnel on a wire you hold to your ear
23:43:32 <rust_collector> grandma had a big box on the wall, with the shouting funnel on the side, and the hand stick to listen to
23:43:41 <rust_collector> ericsson
23:44:32 <rust_collector> i rememeber it had some scary stuff inside, and also some nice horseshoe magnets
23:49:18 <Ysjoelfir> I love old phones.
23:50:49 <rust_collector> I think this one had plain steel wires, from the top, and up to ceramic "knobs" near the roof, and into a hole in the wall
23:51:06 <rust_collector> it was some kind of bare wires anyway
23:53:15 <Ysjoelfir> yeah, old phones worked that way. just ~60V for the ringer, direct wires to the distribution, done.
23:53:29 <rust_collector> http://www.telephonecollecting.org/Bobs%20phones/Pages/AustPostOffice/TeleNo1.htm
23:53:52 <Ysjoelfir> Even though I never witnessed it in person I would love to have talked with the "Fräulein vom Amt", as the girls doing the connections at the switchpanels were called here
23:54:05 <Ysjoelfir> that thing looks massive
23:54:13 <rust_collector> it is
23:54:38 <rust_collector> but yes, it has a regular-ish hand...thing
23:54:47 <rust_collector> I wonder where that thing went
23:57:09 <rust_collector> now I wonder where I saw the phone with the yell-into-funnel on the case
23:58:06 <rust_collector> i like how it had a little desk with a little clip, to hold some paper
