00:00:38 <rust_collector> the hard bits of bmws tend to be good. it is just that you never know if anything electric will work that day or not
00:01:05 <hsn> yee
00:01:11 <Ysjoelfir> even my BMW motorcacle's electric system is crap
00:01:32 <rust_collector> I think that is a bike thing, really.
00:02:16 <Ysjoelfir> having a connector that is disconnected and bridged with a thick wire and that sparks as fuck when you remove the solid copper jumper and reconnect it?
00:02:46 <rust_collector> yeah, that would not surprize me at all,
00:03:07 <rust_collector> no no, it is user error
00:03:18 <rust_collector> nothing wrong with this design
00:03:28 <Ysjoelfir> one day I'll probably rip the wiring out and replace it with a homemade one
00:03:37 <rust_collector> oh, so there is something wrong here, damn parts suppliers
00:04:16 <rust_collector> that would probably work much better
00:06:08 <coppice> Ysjoelfir: system seems a grandiose term to use for the wiring in a bike
00:06:43 <rust_collector> yes, I think most of it is just a handy way to keep the parts from falling off
00:37:39 <T3sl4> https://i.redd.it/6q3knwdhbhz51.png
00:38:25 <Ysjoelfir> lol
00:48:30 <Ysjoelfir> https://youtu.be/r-XrjB0prFc?t=3118 I would be scared as fuck :D
00:48:40 <Ysjoelfir> that has to be A LOT of pressure
00:56:43 <rust_collector> meh... but why does he feel he has to push it down thru all that?
00:56:59 <Ysjoelfir> because he wants the piston out there?^^
00:57:22 <rust_collector> push it up?
00:58:17 <rust_collector> none of the ways are ideal in that case, but...
00:58:36 <Ysjoelfir> he decided against that as the back of the piston didn'T have that much surface to support pressure
00:58:46 <rust_collector> okeh
00:59:09 <Ysjoelfir> only the two "blocks" where the connection rod thingy between the piston and the.. rod goes through
00:59:26 <rust_collector> right...
01:00:34 <rust_collector> I feel he is pretty likely to collapse the ring land, but... I guess it does not matter much there
01:02:36 <rust_collector> oh well. so... I was out tacking some stuff on the onion van, and I had some sparks fly around my head, and down my neck, and burnt in somewhere down my back... which is ok... but somehow that happened 3 times. so I went inside to get more coffee
01:03:27 <electrohead> o/
01:04:09 <rust_collector> 'ola
01:04:23 <electrohead> e'yo
01:04:47 <T3sl4> i didn't know something could be stuck in something else, that hard
01:05:00 <T3sl4> without taking the trouble to make it a tapered fit or something
01:05:25 <rust_collector> a tapered piston would be cool, lol
01:05:58 <rust_collector> I guess it probably is, with the rust expanding, and crushing the piston
01:06:37 <Ysjoelfir> yeah, rust can make stuff stuck pretty badly
01:06:50 <rust_collector> but I have seen... not so much pistons, but the cylinders being pretty well stuck, enough that we had to torch them out
01:08:14 <rust_collector> when you get up to more than 80 tons on the press... well, it does not make sense to push harder, as other things will break before you get the part out

01:10:08 <Ysjoelfir> plastic deformation can be pretty pretty sometimes
01:10:14 <rust_collector> sure
01:12:09 <rust_collector> I think I have a set of valves from an iveco. the timing belt broke, and it stuffed the valves closed. they are perfectly straight, it is just that they have a weird S shape just before the head
01:12:42 <Ysjoelfir> lol^^
01:12:48 <rust_collector> but they do look sort of pretty in an artsy way
01:14:04 Join: IceGuest_77 ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
01:14:25 <rust_collector> i have a feeling the guy was driving it italian style. the head was bent up between the bolts, so you could see light thru where the head gasket was
01:14:55 <IceGuest_77> T3sl4: You trying to hide from me? *tips hat*
01:14:58 <Ysjoelfir> eh? How could that even work? XD
01:15:10 Nick: IceGuest_77 is now known as Tezzers
01:15:15 * T3sl4 hugs Tezzers
01:15:26 * Ysjoelfir tazers Tezzers
01:15:26 <rust_collector> it didn't. that is why we got it in the shop, lol
01:15:27 * Tezzers hugs T3sl4, buhs.
01:15:33 <T3sl4> buh
01:15:34 <Ysjoelfir> ah :D
01:15:55 <Tezzers> T3sl4: Now I have to come here just to bitch and moan at you?
01:16:12 <T3sl4> fraid so
01:16:37 Join: slo ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
01:16:52 <rust_collector> ok, I am going back outside
01:16:59 <Ampera> rust_collector, take me with you
01:17:28 <Tezzers> T3sl4: Apparently I'm going to be playing electrician on this new project too. I get to remember how to bend 3/4 pipe and doing a bunch of intricate bends up in a boom lift. It's going to suck, months behind schedule of course :D Because I can't keep my mouth shut and let them get the union guys to do this.
01:17:35 <Tezzers> What's new in your world.
01:17:40 <Ysjoelfir> i'll be going outside in a few hours too, join me if yoiu want Ampera
01:17:43 <Tezzers> .s/./? >_>
01:17:51 <T3sl4> you should join the union, more pay :P
01:17:57 <Ampera> Ysjoelfir, you're allowed to leave the house there?
01:18:02 <Ampera> that's generous of the state
01:18:07 <Ysjoelfir> sure
01:18:07 <Tezzers> Ampera: You can join me on my trike in two hours or so, riding on the highwayy
01:18:17 <Ampera> no thanks I have an actual car
01:18:33 * Ysjoelfir will be going to fiy his bike later
01:18:34 <coppice> Ampera: you're allowed to leave your house in your will
01:18:36 <Ysjoelfir> *fix
01:18:47 <T3sl4> Tezzers, i made a blinkenlites https://imgur.com/gallery/OF4jAxh
01:18:49 <Tezzers> T3sl4: Union pays more? I'm making a whopping $31.50/hr. I "might" get promoted to salaried (non-exempt), maybe. idfk.
01:19:02 <Ampera> more than I make
01:19:04 <Tezzers> Ampera: I have a car and a tricycle.
01:19:11 <Tezzers> The tricycle is a lot more fun.
01:19:14 <T3sl4> could be 40+benes? idunno :P
01:19:16 <Ampera> coppice, you're obviously not a great supporter of home burials.
01:19:38 <Tezzers> T3sl4: That's miserable. Vacuum tubes? eugh x3
01:19:54 <coppice> T3sl4: do your vacuum tubes have red LEDs under them to enhance the cheery glow?
01:20:11 <T3sl4> says the guy who works alongside beam lines all day (for some value of "along")
01:20:14 <Ampera> I have no idea what the sparky union pays down in LI, where I live a journeyman gets payed 40+really nice benefits
01:20:16 <Ampera> starting
01:20:23 <Tezzers> In 6 months ish I think I'll be topping out the hourly wage worker pay grade.
01:20:30 <T3sl4> coppice: nope, 100% all natural free range valves
01:20:46 <T3sl4> or at least the mullards are valves, the RCA and GE are tubes
01:20:59 <Tezzers> Ampera: I'm not an electrician, and I'm not interested in being an electrician :shrug;
01:21:09 <Tezzers> And journeyman takes 5 years to get there
01:21:11 <T3sl4> although these all happen to be US brands, so nevermind that, but i have some others in the pile
01:21:13 <Tezzers> At least
01:21:15 <Ampera> why are you elechicken?
01:21:28 <coppice> T3sl4: you'll never make it in the guitar amp or audiophile business with that attitude
01:21:36 <Ampera> I would have gone off for an apprenticeship, but then I got hired to break things for a living
01:21:38 <Tezzers> T3sl4: Yeah, but I work on the new shit. I don't work with any PMTs.
01:21:44 <Ampera> and that seemed to be more in line with my skills and capabilities
01:21:53 <Tezzers> All the scintillators I work on are solid state
01:22:03 <T3sl4> ye
01:23:10 <coppice> T3sl4: those are some seriously vintage tubes. I wonder when Mullard made their last one? Come to that, I wonder when Philips made the last Mullard branded semiconductor?
01:24:04 <Ampera> interest rate for FHA loans with my CU is 3%
01:24:44 <Ampera> that's actually really good
01:25:25 <T3sl4> hmm, can't see any date codes on most of these, the writing is pretty worn off. one GE part says 61-04
01:25:35 <Ampera> if it was any lower they'd have to start paying me to buy the house
01:29:11 <rust_collector> I do not see a problem with that?
01:29:35 <T3sl4> rust_collector: Ampera is opposed to free handouts like universal housing
01:30:02 <rust_collector> oh right. I forgot
01:30:04 <hsn> hey ampera
01:38:17 <hsn> T3sl4: Ysjoelfir https://www.instagram.com/p/CHo4eNODu9b/?igshid=13apxm9xe21xh
01:38:59 Join: jpt9 ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
01:40:00 <Ysjoelfir> hehe :D
01:40:06 <Ysjoelfir> that was pretty obvious
01:40:44 <jpt9> Mornin'.
01:40:53 <Ysjoelfir> hi
01:41:47 <jpt9> If anyone's keeping track of how people found EEVBlog, I was looking for reviews of the Casio fx-260 Solar II. Didn't *need* another calculator, but I got one anyway.
01:42:41 <jpt9> (As for other geeky things, I'm into ham radio and modular synthesis. Have a soldering iron laying around, but haven't built anything yet.)
01:43:09 <Ysjoelfir> then you're very welcome
01:43:34 <rust_collector> YAAY! a person!
01:43:42 <hsn> hello jpt9
01:43:48 <Ysjoelfir> wutt? person? where!?
01:43:49 <hsn> where r u from if i may ask ?
01:44:06 <rust_collector> I like modular things. but I have no musicality at all.
01:44:16 <jpt9> Boston, MA, USA. (In the northeast.)
01:44:23 <rust_collector> I still keep looking at synth related things, lol
01:44:44 <rust_collector> what is it with that part of the us...
01:45:00 <hsn> jpt9, does that make you a biden or a trump person ?
01:45:09 <jpt9> https://i.imgur.com/bC1Bq4G.jpg . Also, https://i.imgur.com/NVRjhAs.jpg
01:45:10 <rust_collector> no, he likes radios
01:45:12 <jpt9> Nope.
01:45:22 <hsn> also welcome :P im troll guy ..
01:45:31 <jpt9> Biden, rather. Misread the question.
01:45:37 <Ysjoelfir> no, you're mr. sandman :P
01:45:43 <Ysjoelfir> rusty is mr. troll
01:45:47 <rust_collector> OI!
01:45:49 <hsn> correct ..
01:46:05 <Ysjoelfir> you even have a region called troll stairs, so don't oi :P
01:46:06 <hsn> sometimes i got so much sand that i think im another person :>
01:46:24 <rust_collector> a region? nope, it is a road....
01:46:36 <T3sl4> nice synth
01:46:45 <jpt9> Thanks.
01:46:56 <rust_collector> that does look very neat
01:46:57 <hsn> hey we are more than 500sqkm
01:46:58 <Ysjoelfir> true, its a road. a very nice one though
01:47:16 <rust_collector> ok
01:47:20 <jpt9> I've also got a few Rubik's cubes (https://i.imgur.com/6wlLkH6.jpg) and some chess sets (https://i.imgur.com/LuK5TsB.jpg https://i.imgur.com/KATF0kn.jpg). Not amazing at either, but fun at times.
01:47:43 <jpt9> Anyway, enough random geeky images.
01:47:49 <Ysjoelfir> the lemon guy would love the cubes :)
01:48:16 <jpt9> As for what it sounds like, see https://soundcloud.com/jptuttle
01:48:18 <Ysjoelfir> I love those chess figures :D
01:48:24 <hsn> jpt9, there is also a nice watch there
01:48:26 <rust_collector> ok, so what makes a keyboard 1v/octave anyway? I see things made for that, but I can not find a thing about the keyboard itself
01:48:56 <jpt9> hsn: Which one?
01:49:14 <hsn> right of the synthesizer
01:49:49 <hsn> thats right .. we all check everything on the imagges .. bcz thats us ..
01:49:50 <hsn> :D
01:49:51 <jpt9> Yeah. Timex Weekender -- got it earlier this year. My first analog one.
01:50:17 <jpt9> On the other side is my lovely light-up RF choke. /s
01:50:54 * hsn chokes T3sl4
01:51:13 * T3sl4 capacitates hsn
01:51:17 <jpt9> Currenty have on a different watch strap: https://i.imgur.com/EilXtDv.jpg
01:52:10 * T3sl4 sips coffee
01:56:52 <hsn> is it only me who dont know how to read IPA english ?
01:57:03 <jpt9> Nope.
01:57:19 <hsn> ok then i should continue in my ignorance :P ?
01:57:36 <rust_collector> why change now?
01:57:37 <jpt9> Oh, and I've got more calculators: https://i.imgur.com/YkQB86X.jpg
01:57:40 <coppice> hsn: IPA is only really useful for phonetics teachers
01:58:07 Join: DarthYoda (DarthYodaX`[email protected]) to #EEVblog
01:58:11 <hsn> coppice, i just wanted to know how to pronounce Heuristic
01:58:23 <rust_collector> nah, forget that
01:58:23 <hsn> i think im saying "bitch"iristic
01:58:48 <Ysjoelfir> I have a nice Privilet 853M calculator on my desk. would love to have a more scientific one with such a nice display.
01:59:11 Quit: Nothing\ ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
02:00:02 <hsn> these are my calculators : https://snipboard.io/YzT78Q.jpg
02:00:06 <hsn> :(
02:00:25 <hsn> btw ^ new update to ms calc graphic option
02:00:37 <jpt9> I've also got an HP 49g+ somewhere, and some sort of old scientific one.
02:00:38 <T3sl4> my calculators ;) https://www.seventransistorlabs.com/Calc/index.html
02:00:41 <Ysjoelfir> ms calc has an graphic option?
02:00:52 <jpt9> hsn: That works. Desmos is nice, too.
02:01:03 <Ysjoelfir> lol T3sl4
02:01:10 <hsn> nice ones T3sl4
02:01:13 <Ampera> HP 50g for the win!
02:01:16 <hsn> can i steal them ?
02:01:19 <Ampera> or HP Prime
02:01:20 <Ampera> both are good
02:01:22 <Ampera> or HP 48g
02:02:04 <jpt9> Admittedly, I bought the Casio graphing one partly because I missed having a graphing calcuator to play with, partly to have a Proper Embedded Device(tm), and party to stick it to TI for removing assembly programming.
02:02:06 <rust_collector> https://imgur.com/a/KEFgSnc
02:02:33 <jpt9> Needless to say, Casio's registration and survey pages don't have any of these reasons. (Or the 'I bought it to play with math' reason.)
02:02:35 <rust_collector> this one can at least add numbers together
02:02:59 <hsn> eevblog say hello to jpt9
02:02:59 <EEVBlog> Hello there, hsn!
02:03:02 <Ampera> HP is the only calculator
02:04:39 <hsn> rust_collector, whats 1 day ago ?
02:05:00 <rust_collector> nah
02:05:19 <hsn> tell me im noisy
02:05:19 <rust_collector> youtube video
02:05:25 <rust_collector> i know
02:05:43 <rust_collector> but I am old, so I can ignore you, when I feel like it
02:06:01 <hsn> :D and when u dont feel like it ?
02:06:27 Quit: DarthYoda (DarthYodaX`[email protected]) Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client
02:06:30 <rust_collector> then I post noisy music for you
02:06:51 <rust_collector> hsn hates music
02:07:30 <Ysjoelfir> hsn is not allowed to have enjoys, because mr. king doesn't like enjoyment for his subordinates
02:07:46 <rust_collector> right
02:08:10 <rust_collector> hsn, just because you asked: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBeNVcsyjPA
02:08:29 <hsn> https://youtu.be/sIQir_XqU3A?t=137 why im watching this
02:09:01 <hsn> rust_collector, for me it doesnt say "1 day ago"
02:09:13 <hsn> oh .. on the comments
02:09:17 <rust_collector> well, I don't care?
02:09:45 <hsn> dont u ?
02:09:51 <rust_collector> no
02:10:17 <hsn> u dont love me :( u never care
02:10:28 Join: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
02:10:30 <rust_collector> I do wonder if I should send some nordic sand, so you can compare to your baked sand
02:10:43 <jpt9> I've also got Free42 on my phone, but I mostly use it to calculate tips at restaurants. (Wrote a little program that does a 20% tip and total, showing both, cause 2-line display. Totally a good use for all this advanced technology.)
02:17:03 <hsn> is tip mandetory in europe like usa ?
02:17:15 <hsn> or the other way around ?
02:17:20 <rust_collector> no
02:17:57 <rust_collector> well, I don't know about all the places, but in general, people here get paid
02:18:02 <hsn> all europe or just few ?
02:18:04 <hsn> partial
02:18:13 <hsn> paid tip ?
02:18:18 <hsn> paid salary ?
02:18:22 <Ysjoelfir> depends on the region. IIRC its absolutely not nice to tip someone in rustyland, while here in germanistan its... kind of normal to give a SMALL tip (nowhere near 20%, more like.... 5% max), but also only in cheap restaurants, not in more pricey ones
02:19:05 <hsn> and does it go to the waiter
02:19:13 <hsn> or to the whole workers in restaurant ?
02:19:52 <Ysjoelfir> like when I go to a pub and drink a beer for 3.90 I give the guy 4 and tell him to keep the rest. but if I go to my favorite steakhouse where the cheapest meal is already like 30€ I pay the price and also give like 2€ max. like if its 38€ I give 40.
02:19:56 <Ysjoelfir> to the waiter usually
02:20:06 <rust_collector> it is ok to pay a bit here also, but it is often more to not get a few coins back, than anything
02:20:41 <Ysjoelfir> its basically like that as well, I give usually the amopunt I "need" to not get coins back^^
02:21:06 <rust_collector> but no one expect to get a tip here
02:21:10 <hsn> nowhere near 20%, more like.... 5% max
02:21:23 <hsn> i dont get it .. 20% max or 5% ?
02:22:16 <rust_collector> less than 5%
02:22:21 <Ysjoelfir> around here the only people "expecting" to get a tip (but not demanding it) are delivery guys (not post, but food delivery. like order from a restaurant, someone brings it to you, you give him a few coins. Or Drinks delivery)
02:22:26 <Ysjoelfir> yep, 5% max
02:22:56 <hsn> but what r u talking about 20%?
02:23:13 <hsn> actually . wait let me google "nowwhere" meaning
02:23:16 <Ysjoelfir> was refering to jpt9 's sentence
02:23:26 <Ysjoelfir> google "nowhere near" ;)
02:23:31 <hsn> ah
02:23:35 <rust_collector> not close to
02:23:48 <hsn> make sense now
02:24:15 <hsn> i was reading it like "now a days its near 20% .. but 5% is max" ..
02:24:47 <rust_collector> right
02:24:54 <hsn> ok i leave
02:25:00 <rust_collector> heh
02:25:00 <hsn> enough for today
02:25:12 <hsn> have to do some grilling
02:25:17 <rust_collector> hsn, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsYKbF-mgkA&list=OLAK5uy_kOon10biQm0egOvt_hd6Zky0ZD7YUmvak
02:25:22 <rust_collector> just for you
02:25:22 <hsn> we got nice weather now .. we can grill
02:25:33 <rust_collector> you always have nice weather
02:25:36 <hsn> thats so satanic
02:25:49 <hsn> Clear with periodic clouds
02:26:10 <hsn> https://www.weather-forecast.com/locations/Manama/forecasts/latest
02:26:28 <Tezzers> Any suggestions on how to make a non-plated D shaped hole in KiCAD?
02:26:28 <hsn> nice and cold
02:26:56 <Tezzers> I'm trying to just shoot a board off to a PCB fab that's literally just a 4HP blank plate to hold a bunch of BNCs in the back of a card cage >_>
02:30:13 <Ysjoelfir> have to go to the pharmacy.
02:30:20 <Ysjoelfir> later you people
02:30:32 <rust_collector> gnight
02:32:28 <hsn> Tezzers: idk sry
02:48:10 Join: arch ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
03:06:10 <T3sl4> Tezzers: idunno, however you do board cutouts
03:06:44 <T3sl4> if the D's have to be particularly sharp, remember to relieve the inner radius with extra depth
03:06:51 <T3sl4> also, deez BNCs
03:11:57 <Tezzers> T3sl4: idk how to do internal cutouts in KiCAD >_>
03:12:10 <T3sl4> that makes two of us :D
03:17:42 <arch> see if the latest nightly includes support for whatever it is you're looking for. apparently you can now toggle keepout areas under passive components, that way you dont get copper pours overflowing between the cracks of resistors and caps
03:17:55 <arch> who knows what else has been added
03:19:17 <T3sl4> i'd be shocked and embarrassed if they didn't have cutouts since forever ago
03:20:38 <arch> yeah, it was only added in the v6 (unstable/nightly)
03:21:03 <arch> im on v5 (stable), and i have to manually put keepouts sometimes if the overflow looks expecially ugly

03:32:19 <Ysjoelfir> re
03:33:17 <rust_collector> yep
03:34:32 * electrohead lights everything on fire
03:34:52 * rust_collector looks for hotdogs and a stick
03:36:28 * Ysjoelfir joins with marshmallows
03:38:30 <rust_collector> I just cut apart out old dining chairs. I think they will be good hammer handles and such
03:40:31 <rust_collector> but I have no idea where my spokeshave is...
03:40:35 <rust_collector> so not today
03:41:09 <Ysjoelfir> A spokeshave is still on my to get list. think that is a pretty usefull thing
03:41:18 <rust_collector> oh, it is
03:42:14 <rust_collector> even the cheap ones do ok. just clean up the blobs of paint they are dipped in, and sharpen the blade. They are not very picky things
03:44:59 <rust_collector> I did think about making a "sideways" handle for one of the planes, jsut to use on the shooting board
03:45:41 <Ysjoelfir> that would be handy? I think you have the european style planes up there too, so adding a handle should be easy
03:45:48 <rust_collector> because I have one plane that is pretty much useless as a plane, but it would work on its side, I think
03:46:04 <rust_collector> regular stanley sort of thing
03:46:11 <Ysjoelfir> oh. so no :D
03:46:29 <Ysjoelfir> meh, if its cast iron you could weld one onto there :P
03:46:38 <rust_collector> uhm,
03:46:46 <rust_collector> well, it is cast something
03:46:56 <Ysjoelfir> or drill and tap
03:47:00 <rust_collector> I am sure it has some iron in the mix
03:47:23 <rust_collector> but I was thinking I would use the regular bolt they come with?
03:48:10 <Ysjoelfir> speaking of tapping. We had the problem that our trainees at my soon-ex-company were to stupid to tap a single M3 thread into alu.. I found out why.
03:48:34 <rust_collector> he made a 3mm hole?
03:48:45 <Ysjoelfir> ah, well, why not? I thought you might want to be able to use it in its regular orientation :D
03:48:50 <Ysjoelfir> well.. that was mistake one
03:48:51 <K> fuck taping M3 by hand
03:48:55 <K> fuck it with a cactus
03:49:10 <rust_collector> nah, it is useless as a regular plane
03:49:29 <Ysjoelfir> mistake two was... some idiot put a M3.5 finishing tap into the 3 tap set.
03:49:35 <Ysjoelfir> guess how I found out
03:49:45 <K> "close enough!"
03:49:54 <Ysjoelfir> yeeeeahno
03:49:59 <rust_collector> yeah, it is just aluminium,
03:50:32 <rust_collector> I do not like taps smaller than 5mm
03:50:40 <K> yeah
03:50:47 <Kuschelpony> looks like a job to turn the drill into reverse, sprinkle some aluminium shavings over it and run it until the hole is melted close again :)
03:51:02 <K> haa
03:51:11 <Ysjoelfir> weeeeell... not sure if that works :P
03:51:21 <Ysjoelfir> whyt don't you like about small taps?
03:51:37 <rust_collector> because they are small?
03:51:42 <K> bitch to get stright
03:51:52 <K> snaps easily
03:52:04 <K> --> fuck with cactus
03:52:05 <rust_collector> nah, but they take close to negative torque to snap
03:52:12 <Tezzers> I guess I can just make a 9.7mm hole here instead of a D shaped cutout
03:52:14 <Tezzers> Buh
03:52:15 <Ysjoelfir> hm, i didn't hav too many problems with those yet. but yes, easy snapping is true
03:52:17 <Tezzers> https://i.gyazo.com/f18fe93dd343ee2461e3a3ac0b3ef849.png
03:52:25 <K> i had to hand tap 40 holes
03:52:35 <K> it can go and die in fire
03:52:56 <Ysjoelfir> K, thats what I did. with a cordeless screwdriver. only to find out that there was a M3.5 in that set -.-
03:53:25 <rust_collector> I think it is disturbing that m3.5 is a thing that exist, lol
03:53:29 <K> part goes to scrap eh
03:53:47 <K> M3.5 is a bit wonk, aye
03:54:04 <Ysjoelfir> M3.5 is crap, yes. But I just enlarged it to m4
03:54:11 <rust_collector> I would have to be doing something very special to need that
03:55:31 <rust_collector> I do have some pretty nice m5 and m6 self drilling taps. those are pretty nice if you are going into anything less than 8mm thick
03:55:55 <Ysjoelfir> those things scare me. I always think they are guaranteed to break
03:56:25 <rust_collector> yeah
03:56:34 <rust_collector> but they seem to do ok
03:58:22 <rust_collector> i got them from moms ex. I have no idea what he used them for, because I do not remember any tapped holes in his boat. but he had a little box full of them

04:45:54 <arch> bless ublock. found how to block elements containing "intern" from job searches. saving time like that :D
04:46:27 <electrohead> :D
04:46:36 <electrohead> ublock and noscript are saints
04:47:19 <arch> this saves me so much time. before, i would be pelted with unwanted sponsored listings and positions for unpaid internships and other trashy companies. now i just blacklist once and that's it--no more dumbfuckery
04:47:50 <arch> www.monster.com###SearchResults > section.card-content:has-text(/intern/i)
04:47:54 <arch> boom
04:49:34 <arch> gorhill deserves the nobel peace prize
04:49:37 <Ampera> I don't get the point of noscript
04:49:44 <Ampera> it's an absolute pain in the ass to live with
04:50:10 <Ampera> I'm sure you could set all sort of stuff and make it a blacklist rather than a whitelist, but I've seen my dad using it whitelist and it's just an absolute nightmare anyone ever sent him a link to something
04:50:19 <arch> nuh uh. have you seen 90% of the sites these days? fucking 30 different server requests to all sorts of shady data mining and social media companies
04:50:28 <Ampera> no shit
04:50:31 <Ampera> who cares
04:50:42 <arch> i do. i dont want my bandwidth and CPU cycles wasted
04:50:54 <Ampera> if they are I close the site and don't go back there
04:51:02 <arch> with noscript, you blacklist once, and call it a day. couldn't be more simple
04:51:05 <Ampera> if it's just being aggressive in its loading whatever, I have plenty to go around
04:51:17 <Ampera> for every site you ever go to
04:51:50 <Ampera> and maybe you're someone who never sets foot outside of facebook, but I tend to go to a variety of script heavy sites that I do not feel like individually vetting/banning scripts for
04:52:09 <Ampera> or playing the wonderful game of, which js did I just block that's broken the site
04:52:22 <Ampera> it's like the IE site whitelist on Windows Server
04:53:31 <Ampera> and honestly I'm not sure if I've ever seen a site juice my CPU like that, maybe I just don't go to as many scumbag websites
04:53:48 <Ysjoelfir> reading this discussion I wonder which browser one should use nowadays. I am an opera user since the old days, but since its all chrome nowadays anyways,... is there something special that stands out? And no, I won't use firefox.
04:54:08 <Ampera> That's pretty much all there is, chromium or deal with firefox's bullshit
04:54:19 <Ampera> I just stick with vanilla chromium, it works well enough
04:54:24 <arch> use links browser like richard stallman
04:54:34 <arch> and enjoy your full text only experience
04:54:46 <Ampera> I've considered changing to Firefox, as I was hoping they'd have a better hardware accelerated video decode implementation
04:55:04 <Ampera> and they probably do, but since this really is only important on a portable device, and my portable device can do CPU decode without bursting into flames
04:55:13 <Ampera> its only benefit to me really just isn't much of a benefit to me
04:56:11 <Ampera> The only alternatives that I'm aware of are Konqueror, NetSurf, and maybe Midori
04:56:24 <Ampera> There's probably others, but I can't think of any
04:57:13 <Kuschelpony> i liked to use Midori in the past, they made it easy to switch between different local profiles and even run several independ ones in paralell with independ settings, completely eliminating cross-site-tracking or such issues
04:57:15 <Ampera> apparently GNOME Web also exists, but you'll probably half to install half of the GNOME stack just to use it
04:57:34 <Ysjoelfir> I used Konqueror when I tried linux, but I doubt that its available for win? or is it?
04:57:41 <Ampera> Midori refuses to work out of the box for me and I don't care enough to get it to work. It just feels stiff and annoying to use it for occasional stuff
04:57:46 <Kuschelpony> but recently Midori turned 180 degrees and is now proud to synchronize different instances over the cloud
04:57:53 <Ampera> Ysjoelfir, who the hell uses Windows
04:57:58 <Ysjoelfir> I do.
04:58:02 <Kuschelpony> in XUbuntu, Midori works right out of the box
04:58:02 <Ampera> well stop doing that
04:58:10 <Ampera> fuck Ubuntu
04:58:12 <Ampera> Ucuntu
04:58:29 <Ampera> and yeah, Midori works, unless you want to watch a video
04:58:34 <Ampera> which is half the reason I use a web browser
04:58:39 <Ysjoelfir> I'll look into lonux again as soon as I have the time. but now I don't
04:58:59 <arch> Ubunturd
04:59:10 <Kuschelpony> well, i dont use Ubuntu...
04:59:15 <Kuschelpony> i use XUbuntu
04:59:22 <arch> Xubunturd
04:59:33 <Ampera> if I wanted Debian I'd use Debian
04:59:39 <arch> damn right
04:59:39 <Ampera> not a cheap bastardization of Debian
04:59:53 <arch> Ubuntu is an ancient african word meaning "i don't know how to use debian"
04:59:58 <Ampera> and Xubuntu just makes no sense to me, why do you need an entire other distro just to use XFCE
05:00:16 <Ampera> if I want Ubuntu but not whatever UI they're using this week, I'll just install it and swap
05:02:31 <arch> i remember using Slax, when i had a shitty Intel Pentium M 1.4GHz laptop with 256MB RAM only
05:02:32 <Ampera> get with it people, if you don't use the exact same things I use, you're wholly inferior to me and shouldn't even exist
05:03:03 <Ampera> I know what's best all the time, and anyone is just misinformed, wrong, and should probably be shut down, like T3sl4
05:04:33 * T3sl4 hugs Ampera
05:04:45 * Ampera hugs T3sl4
05:06:03 <Ampera> YouTube Music seems to love taking songs out of my playlists, and then replacing them with completely different songs that happen to have the same name
05:06:09 <Ampera> or different versions
05:06:40 <T3sl4> Ampera: your sarcasm is getting more advanced, but it's still easily detectable
05:07:19 <Ampera> My passive aggression not passive enough? Sorry, just trying to follow your example.
05:08:37 <Ampera> I swear MSSSMS is made by absolute gibbons
05:08:58 <Ampera> you right click on a database, and it will /hang/ while it goes and runs some query in the background to show you a menu that has no dynamic content
05:09:31 <Ampera> It also loves just hanging in the middle of you typing for no reason, like nobody who works at Microsoft has ever seen a machine with two threads before
05:54:10 <Kuschelpony> awesome, that guy built a digital clock with neon lamp ring counters https://pa3fwm.nl/projects/neonclock/

08:45:15 * Ampera stuffs a jerboa down hsn's pants
08:45:24 <Ampera> good night sweetie
08:45:47 <Hulk_Mullet> good evenight
08:49:49 <Hulk_Mullet> this will be a slow run home. people have ordered a lot of heavy stuff
08:50:49 <Hulk_Mullet> the trailer was 36 tons, we will see what the truck ends up at
08:51:46 <Ysjoelfir> 36 tons... so your truck is 4 tons max? :D sounds slightly unrealistic?
08:51:53 * steve30 snuggles up to T3sl4
08:51:59 <Hulk_Mullet> what?
08:52:30 <Hulk_Mullet> I am allowed up to 60...
08:52:36 <Ysjoelfir> oh :D here in germanistan truck + trailer is only allowed to have 40 tons max
08:53:17 <Hulk_Mullet> yea, well,, this is truck+trailer+trailer
08:54:00 <Ysjoelfir> THAT weould be especially not allowed ^^
08:54:15 <Hulk_Mullet> it is, some places
08:54:48 <Hulk_Mullet> max 25.25m
08:55:13 <Ysjoelfir> I doubt many drivers around here would even be able to drive that...
08:55:22 <Hulk_Mullet> as usual, just to get from denmark to holland, i think
08:56:01 <Hulk_Mullet> we are testing bigher things now, we will see
08:56:34 <Hulk_Mullet> the test is 32 or 34 meters, and 75 tons
08:57:06 <Ysjoelfir> I remember the time when I worked at the transport company as the IT guy... roughly every two weeks we had to rebuild a wall at my bureau because one of the drivers once again didn't manage to fit his truck (without any trailer) into the docking port thing
08:57:37 <Hulk_Mullet> it is a thing.... lol
09:00:52 <Hulk_Mullet> I just hope we get something with a real engine in to pull that
09:02:07 <Hulk_Mullet> we are still using little 500 horse trucks. it is not so bad around here, where it is pretty flat, but...
09:02:44 <Ysjoelfir> heh. that would be much around here.
09:03:18 <Hulk_Mullet> sure, but there is pretty very flat
09:03:24 <Ysjoelfir> true
09:04:12 <Hulk_Mullet> and you people have a thing for low power things. I am not sure why
09:05:20 <Ysjoelfir> don't ask me, I think its stupid
09:05:34 <Hulk_Mullet> As much as i would like an old ifa... I am glad I do not have one at work
09:10:00 <Ysjoelfir> well, you would suffer even more, which means even more money! \o/
09:10:05 <Hulk_Mullet> now I wonder why sandman wants to run a camera 1 meter back and forth
09:10:29 <Hulk_Mullet> ah, yes, there is that...
09:11:39 <Hulk_Mullet> hsn: should be sleeping now, because his confuser says "ding"
09:12:19 <Hulk_Mullet> aok, time to go... good night

09:55:32 <DaF> Hello everyone, I am new to the forum, I was looking inside a 5ish $ smartwatch and found a misterious HS6620C uC, which seems to be a low power soc with bluetooth, but other than that I couldn't find else
09:57:02 <DaF> I think I'll probe it and take some pictures to find if it is programmable or what, do you think it ts better for a project thread or microcontrollers?
09:59:30 <TheDude> microcontrollers, definitely
10:01:39 <coppice> DaF: http://www.onmicro.com.cn/portal/article/index/cid/40/id/231.html
10:03:17 <DaF> Thanks a lot coppice, one day I'll have to learn chineese for there things...
10:04:37 <coppice> I have no idea if there is any English documentation for their products. Their silicon are mostly used by people who prefer Chinese documentation
10:08:51 Join: arch ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
10:09:00 <DaF> Anyway it seems to be under nda, I will take some time to analyze test points to see if I find any indication of ARM programming or debugging interfaces, since a board with small screen, bt, battery and heart rate sensor for this low seems nice, I'll post progress in the forum!

10:25:54 <Nothing\> i was gonna recommend aliexpress but he left
10:25:59 <Nothing\> i hate it when newbs do that
10:26:21 <Nothing\> at least you were able to help him coppice
10:26:38 <Nothing\> but so often i see a newb come in, ask a question, then leave before anyone even replies
10:26:45 <Nothing\> sometimes within 1 or 2 minutes of asking
10:28:18 <coppice> he found what he wanted
10:29:54 <TheDude> Nothing\, all too common

10:35:14 <T3sl4> but i think battery is advanced so nvm?
10:36:14 <T3sl4> hey Nothing\
10:36:31 <Nothing\> TheDude, common westerners are too dependent on instant gratification
10:36:33 <Nothing\> myself included
10:36:38 <Nothing\> hey T3sl4 what's up
10:37:01 <Nothing\> i had a question for you earlier but damned if i remember what it was so i think it's lost for good
10:37:20 <T3sl4> heh, oh well
10:37:22 <Nothing\> it was one of those "i'm not sure who could answer it, but he could if anyone" sorta questions
10:37:39 <Nothing\> man, my mouth feels like i'm getting thrush
10:37:43 <Nothing\> all sort and irritated
10:38:09 <Nothing\> i have a mouthwash for thrush but don't wanna waste if if i don't have to
10:39:35 <T3sl4> the not-so-highly acclaimed prog rock cover band
10:40:44 <Nothing\> thrush?
10:41:04 <Nothing\> is that like a portmanteau of rush and some band i'm unfamiliar with?
10:41:16 <Nothing\> hey, T3sl4
10:41:25 <Nothing\> you know what i like about you, man? love, even.
10:41:47 <Nothing\> you always seem to be on the same level as me, intellectually speaking
10:41:51 <coppice> thrush - its a rush cover bad consisting of fun guys
10:42:07 <Nothing\> like i don't have to dumb down my speech so you'll understand it. or explain anything.
10:42:31 <Nothing\> you just get what i'm saying right away. it's not often i come across someone like that.
10:42:57 <Nothing\> and not just re: vocabulary, but also rather esoteric topics. Like the Bristol Stool Chart.
10:43:11 <T3sl4> eh, that's not so obscure
10:43:17 <T3sl4> lots of people love poop jokes
10:43:25 <Nothing\> well, you know what i mean though, i'm sure
10:43:36 <Nothing\> that was just the most recent thing i could remember
10:43:42 <T3sl4> and i mean, it's not like we're discussing quantum physics here
10:44:16 <Nothing\> well, we do sometimes
10:44:45 <Nothing\> btw i found out nothing freaks a cat out more than putting a mirror on the floor
10:44:49 <Nothing\> they treat it like a hole
10:45:37 <Nothing\> i used this little like 10x6in mirror and freaked my cat out with it
10:46:02 <Nothing\> i have one upstairs that's like 2x3 feet i wanna put on the floor for them, but it's so damned heavy

11:13:28 <Nothing\> it's probably just usb 2.0 but still
11:13:51 <Nothing\> i don't think i could deal with those speeds for something THAT big
11:23:57 <Some_Person> Nothing\: I question if that's real

11:38:10 <Nothing\> but i don't see how a store can get away with selling a flash drive with spurious specs
11:38:45 <Nothing\> heh i remember one time i got a microsd card, not sure how big but it doesn't matter for the story
11:38:58 <Nothing\> so i cut open the package, pop it into my computer
11:39:02 <Nothing\> and nothing
11:39:15 <Nothing\> so after some fiddling around FINALLY my computer sees it
11:39:32 <Nothing\> and recognizes it as a something like 270mb unformatted drive
11:39:43 <Nothing\> wouldn't format it at all
11:39:55 <Nothing\> so i looked closer at the card and what not
11:40:17 <Nothing\> turned out i knicked the corner of it when i was cutting it out of the package and actually cut off part of it
11:40:25 <Nothing\> amazing that it still worked after that
11:40:30 <Nothing\> at least as well as it did
11:40:54 <Nothing\> it was barely a fraction of a millimeter i cut off, but apparently enough to do all that
11:41:36 <Nothing\> those microsd cards are probably just a die coated in something protective
11:41:56 <Nothing\> so i probably just cut a bunch of connections

11:52:50 <Nothing\> airforce pilot had to eject while going supersonic and the force basically tore his body apart
12:01:00 <T3sl4> that would suck
12:01:26 <T3sl4> there was the story of a SR-71 breakup, it basically disaassembled at three times that speed
12:01:49 <T3sl4> somehow, the cockpit / escape pod module survived and the pilots were recovered to tell the tale

12:02:31 <T3sl4> nah, i've heard it a few times
12:02:37 <Nothing\> nice
12:03:37 <Nothing\> yeah, you know more sr-71s were lost due to accidents than from enemies
12:03:50 <Nothing\> they were dangerous planes to fly
12:03:54 <T3sl4> yeah
12:04:19 <Nothing\> they had that one flaw, i forget exactly what it was, but it took the lives of many pilots
12:04:29 Quit: TheDude ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds

12:05:10 <T3sl4> i forget how many died and survived from those crashes
12:05:11 <Nothing\> some problem with the computer guided cone in the engine that's supposed to move back and forth depending on how fast it's going
12:05:51 <Nothing\> i think to limit the amount of air going into the engine. i forget how the whole thing worked.
12:06:15 <Nothing\> i couldn't even tell you the difference between a turbofan and a jet engine
12:06:26 <Nothing\> looking at a turbofan, you'd think it WAS a jet engine
12:06:51 <T3sl4> the core is a turbojet, the fan is just the huge front wheel

12:07:11 <Nothing\> yah i figured it was something like that
12:07:31 <Nothing\> some of the air goes into the jet part and some gets used as a turboprop would
12:08:01 <T3sl4> and for the supersonic one, there's a cone to start a shockwave, that decelerates and pressurizes (acting as a ramjet in part) the incoming air, so it can go through a conventional jet engine

12:09:58 <Nothing\> brb i've got some homemade soup that needs eating
12:11:36 <T3sl4> mmm, soup
12:13:00 <Nothing\> it's really just some chicken soup flavoured dumplings
12:13:09 <Nothing\> i think i told you about the dumplings, didn't i
12:13:31 <Nothing\> after a few days they absorb most of the juic
12:13:39 <T3sl4> i made, baked beans more or less, this morning
12:14:01 <arch> for a single layer copperclad PCB, should i strive for single point grounding at all times? how big a deal are ground loops if i surround the whole board with at least a few mm of ground pour on all sides?
12:14:11 <T3sl4> white beans, about 1/3 lb bacon, onion, chicken stock, a little garlic, molasses
12:14:24 <T3sl4> arch: that sounds terrible
12:14:44 <arch> you mean surrounding the whole board edges with ground?
12:15:47 <T3sl4> i mean doing anything other than stitching the ground as often as possible
12:16:04 <T3sl4> snake it between pins, you can even add jumpers
12:17:23 <arch> what i usually do is route the vcc above the ground pour with jumpers. do the same for grounds?
12:17:34 <arch> join ground islands with jumpers?
12:24:20 <arch> https://www.analog.com/media/en/analog-dialogue/volume-46/number-2/articles/staying_well_grounded.pdf
12:24:30 <arch> thats what i try following along to at least
12:26:00 <T3sl4> like, fig2 is missing exactly half of the picture
12:26:16 <T3sl4> the power supplies and signals all have inductances and resistances, and the inductances are mutual

12:30:14 <arch> "The use of “bus wire” is totally unacceptable as a “ground” because of its impedance at the equivalent frequency of most logic transitions" is what it mentions, so i was kinda hesitant. but i guess it all depends on how hi-tech you're going. im gonna do pretty low tech stuff
12:30:58 <T3sl4> this article is.... supplementary, but it's neither very basic, nor very comprehensive

12:51:20 <Nothing\> as an input or output for a circuit
12:51:51 <Nothing\> or data

13:02:11 <Nothing\> i may just be an amateur, but that sounds all kinds of wrong to me.
13:02:13 <Nothing\> heya rust_collector
13:02:19 <Nothing\> how's it going?
13:02:36 <rust_collector> mmh, not too too bad...
13:02:45 <Nothing\> good stuff
13:02:57 <rust_collector> how are things in new-france?
13:03:04 <Nothing\> i finally forced myself to eat some chicken soup so i feel good
13:03:12 <Nothing\> new france is quebec
13:03:22 <rust_collector> close enough, lol
13:03:31 <Nothing\> there is very little similar between english speaking canada and french canada
13:03:48 <Nothing\> in fact, a lot of french canadians are seperatists
13:04:14 <rust_collector> forced to eat chicken soup? I would not need to be very force-fied to do that
13:04:31 <Nothing\> there was a big thing a few decades ago where they had a referendum to separate from Canada that failed miserably.
13:04:49 <rust_collector> hmm, yes, I think I remember something about that
13:04:49 <Nothing\> But showed a lot of quebcois are pro-separatism
13:05:28 <Nothing\> rust_collector, it's tasty home made chicken soup with dumpings in it made from cream of wheat mixed with egg
13:05:55 <rust_collector> hmm, was it newfoundland that joined pretty late? there was some state anyway
13:05:58 <Nothing\> most of what i had was dumplings cuz after 2 or 3 days of sitting, they absorb most of the liquid
13:06:28 <Nothing\> yeah newfoundland i believe was the last province to join the confederacy
13:06:29 <rust_collector> that is the best part of soup, when it has...uhm, soaked in and mixed
13:06:47 <Nothing\> although nunavut was founded some time in the 90's, it's a territory and not a province
13:07:13 <Nothing\> and basically the most uninhabitable part of canada
13:07:30 <Nothing\> apparently they only just got their first case of covid-19 recently
13:08:06 <rust_collector> there are some places where you really wonder why people live
13:08:34 <Nothing\> well it's mostly indiginous people who live up there
13:08:54 <Nothing\> the umm... oh shit what are they called
13:09:23 <Nothing\> well, the eskimos
13:09:30 <Nothing\> much as i wanted to avoid using that word
13:09:37 <Nothing\> but you know what i mean
13:09:42 <Nothing\> i can't think of the name
13:09:54 <rust_collector> meh. eskimo is fine
13:10:18 <Nothing\> inuktitut
13:10:31 <rust_collector> uuuuh
13:10:39 <rust_collector> eskimo... yep
13:10:52 <Nothing\> heh
13:11:10 <Nothing\> we treat them like they're important up here
13:11:24 <rust_collector> I hope they all live in igloos and go clubbing every weekend
13:11:56 <Nothing\> like nunavut was an entire territory given to them. for them to govern over with relative freedom on the provincial level or whatever it's called
13:12:07 <Nothing\> i'm not sure how territories work exactly
13:12:17 <Nothing\> rust_collector, they really do-
13:12:40 <Nothing\> we even gave them their own coinage
13:12:46 <Nothing\> with the $2 coin
13:12:55 <Nothing\> well, we gave the polar bears the coin
13:13:26 <Nothing\> but i'm pretty sure i've seen an eskimo on a bank note before
13:13:42 <rust_collector> did the polar bear use it to buy ice cream?
13:13:48 <Nothing\> cuz he looked like robocop with those "snow shades" on, if you've ever seen those
13:14:00 <rust_collector> heh
13:14:03 <rust_collector> yes
13:14:05 <Nothing\> they're just like a piece bone with tiny slits carved into them them they wear over their eyes
13:14:41 <Nothing\> inuit!
13:14:47 <Nothing\> that's the word i was searching for
13:14:55 <Nothing\> that's the proper nomenclature for them up here
13:15:04 <Nothing\> like how we call indians natives
13:15:32 <rust_collector> right
13:15:56 <rust_collector> if you say that to an indian...
13:17:10 <Nothing\> if you called a native an indian here
13:17:18 <rust_collector> they say. sir, we have diskoverrd that your computer is virus, plis let me eelp you make it safe
13:17:21 <Nothing\> you'd be liable to get your head stomped in
13:17:36 <Nothing\> lol we have a lot of those here too
13:18:05 <Nothing\> most of them are actually unusually nice and hospitable
13:18:12 <Nothing\> almost to the point that it seems fake
13:18:19 <Nothing\> but it's genuine
13:20:08 <rust_collector> I have only had one call like that. it was some woman called "ruth" calling from windows support
13:20:54 <rust_collector> that was interesting
13:22:27 <Nothing\> ah man, now that's how hot chocolate should be

13:26:04 <Nothing\> T3sl4, not a fan of cinnamon cuz it doesn't dissolve so you get big clumps
13:26:16 <Nothing\> unless you mean a cinnamon stick soaking in it
13:26:34 <T3sl4> oh, just a little on top, or added when you start from dry powder so it ends up mushed in
13:26:41 <Nothing\> but yeah it's ilke the simpsons with mr burns
13:27:10 <Nothing\> "i wonder if this homer nixon has any relation to richard nixon"
13:27:16 <T3sl4> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3FUVDJtiSQ
13:27:30 <Nothing\> smithers: "I don't know sir, the names are spelled and pronounced differently"
13:28:04 <Nothing\> haha classic
13:28:12 <Nothing\> i should really watch the first season
13:28:39 <Nothing\> i generally discount it as... not exactly garbage. But compared to seasons 2-5 it is
13:28:51 <Nothing\> but it's still got some great moments in it
13:29:18 <Nothing\> though bart failing grade 4 and crying his heart out over it is a bit much
13:31:53 <rust_collector> https://www.finn.no/bap/forsale/ad.html?finnkode=197385486
13:32:24 <rust_collector> the stick on text there says: don't write on the instruments
13:33:02 <rust_collector> i wonder if it is a thing to write on test gear
13:34:16 <Nothing\> lol
13:34:25 <Nothing\> they just wanted to be a rebel
13:34:37 <Nothing\> i've always wanted to carve my name into a large boulder
13:34:54 <Nothing\> not for the sake of graffiti or anything, mind you
13:35:33 <Nothing\> but because i realize, next to metal, rock is one of the most permanent and abundant materials we have
13:36:11 <Nothing\> so by carving my name into a large rock, i can sort of preserve my legacy. at least to some degree.
13:36:50 <Nothing\> It's no journal of Samuel Pepys, but it's something to showe that I existed at some point
13:37:00 <rust_collector> someone had spray painted ... oh what was it... it was the names of 2 people. it was like if you sprayed " john and david" on a rock next to the road. it was there for many many years, and turned into a landmark
13:37:17 <Nothing\> weird
13:37:29 <Nothing\> i always thought it was stupid to use your name in graffiti like that
13:37:39 <rust_collector> blue, with white outline
13:37:56 <rust_collector> I am not sure if it was the persons name.
13:38:09 <Nothing\> like carving "<name> was here" into a desk at school when there's a seating plan that puts you right at that desk all year long
13:38:35 <Nothing\> there's a lot of graffiti in the bathroom stalls at the courthouse
13:39:03 <rust_collector> graffiti can be nice, but I do not like tagging
13:39:36 <Nothing\> actually i remember the one prison I was in... I think it was the courthouse, they had me in an elevator.
13:39:45 <rust_collector> I mean, taking a sharpie and writing BOB. that is not very cool, imo
13:40:21 <Nothing\> and the way the elevators work is they've got your hands cuffed and feet shackled, all that stuff and then inside the elevator is a little sorta jail cell that they lock you in, right.
13:40:44 <Nothing\> but somehow there was graffiti carved into the opposite walls from the little jail cell
13:41:00 <rust_collector> and especially when they write BOB BOB BOB BOB BOB BOB all along the wall, then on the next wall, and the bus shed, and garbage can, and some kids pram, and
13:41:31 <Nothing\> not even sure what they'd carve it with considering at that point you're wearing prison attire and don't have anything sharp on you at all
13:41:44 <rust_collector> well.....
13:42:00 <Nothing\> maybe the cuffs, but that would be painful
13:42:23 <Nothing\> those things really hurt your wrists, even when worn properly they'll still bruise you up pretty good after a few hours
13:42:57 <Nothing\> cuz for some reason the entire time you're in the courthouse they keep you cuffed and shackled
13:43:05 <Nothing\> not just when they take you out of your cell
13:43:32 <Nothing\> shackled being ankle cuffs
13:43:34 <rust_collector> they should have those chains with a ball on the end, lol
13:43:37 <Nothing\> and waist chains
13:43:51 <Nothing\> haha that'd be funny
13:44:00 <Nothing\> even if it was just a plastic one for show
13:44:19 <Nothing\> i looked those up the other day, apparently they didn't weigh THAT much
13:44:44 <rust_collector> maybe not, but I bet it made it difficult to run very far
13:44:47 <Nothing\> they were more meant to hinder movement than prevent it entirely. Which is what I always thought they were for.
13:45:17 <rust_collector> if that was the point, they would have a chain with an anvil, or a tractor with no wheels
13:45:27 <Nothing\> lol i remember when they took me to get my methadone. they'd already done the thing where they took my best and shoelaces etc
13:45:55 <Nothing\> and the one cop's like "now, you're not gonna run from us when we let you out, are you?"
13:46:32 <Nothing\> I'm like "you really think i'd get far? my pants would be around my ankles within 5 steps and i'd probably do a faceplant"
13:47:11 <Nothing\> that was while i was held at the station
13:47:19 <Nothing\> so these were just regular cops
13:47:47 <Nothing\> the guards at the actual prison in toronto were great. They were fun to joke around with.
13:48:49 <Nothing\> they always gave me a hard time cuz our jumpsuits had a pocket in the front that i'd keep some toilet paper in to blow/wipe my nose cuz it was always runny
13:49:12 <Nothing\> any time i went down for methadone they'd jokingly treat me like i've got drugs in there
13:49:46 <Nothing\> the one guard's like "alright man, so who gave you the crack? come on, you can tell me. who gave you the crack?"
13:49:53 <rust_collector> then one day you had smuggled in a rabbit...
13:50:01 <Nothing\> I'm like "ah man, you know what they say about snitches"
13:50:18 <Nothing\> and he goes "yeah, snitches get bitches. So out with it"
13:50:27 <Nothing\> rofl rust_collector
13:50:40 <Nothing\> they really went all out with the security in that place
13:50:47 <Nothing\> to the point of x-raying our rectums
13:51:41 <rust_collector> well, I guess there will always be a way... so the lesson is to not stuff a rabbit up your ass
13:52:06 <Nothing\> and if you failed that too many times they'd make you poop for them. and if you still failed, they'd take you down to the hole to what's called a dry cell. Which is a cell with no plumbing. Just a bucket for you to shit and piss into.
13:52:30 <Nothing\> and you don't come out till they get a shit and you pass the x-ray or the contraband comes out
13:53:06 <Nothing\> thing is, it's so damn cold in the hole. there's no way anyone can shit in that kinda cold.
13:53:18 <rust_collector> sure you can
13:53:38 <Nothing\> i couldn't. not with my stomach muscles all clenched up.
13:53:40 <rust_collector> you just save up energy as long as you can, and BOOM! done
13:53:56 <Nothing\> i can't even shit in the morning when my mum's got all the windows open and it's 10c out
13:54:04 <rust_collector> heh.
13:54:55 <rust_collector> I remember it was a very refreshing feeling to take a shit in -35. I did not spend much time doing that
13:56:08 <rust_collector> that was almost a gender changing experience
13:56:17 <Nothing\> heh one of my best memories was living on the shore of georgian bay, just off of lake huron.
13:56:47 <Nothing\> it was -40 the one day and i was only 2 blocks from this nice little lookout point on the shore. So I took a walk out there.
13:57:33 <Nothing\> And none of the water had frozen yet. So with the temperature difference between the water and the air, the water was pouring off all sorts of steam
13:57:46 <Nothing\> it looked like the entire bay was boiling
13:59:43 * Ampera hugs Nothing\
13:59:51 * Nothing\ hugs Ampera
13:59:53 <Nothing\> heya buddy
13:59:59 <Ampera> how are you doing Nothing\
14:00:00 <Nothing\> i knew you'd come around sooner or later
14:00:04 <Nothing\> i'm doing well
14:00:15 <Nothing\> yes, quite well indeed
14:00:26 <Nothing\> and you, my friend?
14:00:29 <Ampera> well I was hoping to sleep through to 2 in the morning, but I'm finding myself unable to go back to sleep
14:00:32 <Nothing\> whom i realized is my best friend
14:00:46 <Ampera> fuck, I am?
14:00:47 <Ampera> shit
14:00:48 <Nothing\> lol seriously i just realized of all my friends. you're the best
14:00:58 <Ampera> now I can't say I don't have any friends anymore
14:00:59 <Ampera> FUCK
14:01:06 <Nothing\> not just online, but all together.
14:01:20 <Nothing\> see, there ya go
14:01:34 <Ampera> Regardless, that's nice to hear, Nothing\. You mean Nothing\ to me, of course.
14:01:37 <Nothing\> that sucks though, about the sleep
14:01:50 <Nothing\> of course i do =P
14:02:02 <Ampera> oh yeah I could fix it lickety shit with some diphenhydramine but it doesn't work that great for getting my sleep schedule into the whack I want it
14:02:16 <Ampera> I want to be going to bed at around 6-8 and waking up at 2am, but I've just not been able to do it
14:02:25 <Nothing\> careful, that stuff'll bung you up
14:02:28 <Ampera> and I am a weakling, I do not like being up with little to no sleep
14:02:38 <Nothing\> if you take it on a regular basis that is
14:02:41 <Ampera> I know, which is why I'm not going to be using it, I only use it seldomly
14:02:51 <Nothing\> good stuff
14:02:54 <Ampera> I take it maybe a few times a month
14:03:17 <Ampera> just because I do have mild allergies some time (or some sort of reaction similar to allergies to something) and those do help better than cetrizine
14:03:20 <Ampera> which I do take regularly
14:03:26 <Nothing\> in general, when used in therapeutic amounts for short periods of time, the stuff has minor to no side effects.
14:03:32 <Nothing\> maybe some dry mouth
14:03:41 <Nothing\> and of course drowsiness
14:03:52 <rust_collector> hmm, that reminds me... I have to take my pill
14:03:53 <Ampera> I consider that it's main feature
14:04:03 <Ampera> er, its
14:04:20 <Nothing\> btw if you need some benedryl/diphenhydramine in a pinch (for anything but sleep) but haven't got any around
14:04:33 <Nothing\> motion sickness tablets like dramamine are the exact same thing
14:04:35 <Ampera> I have a 365 caplet bottle
14:04:45 <Ampera> yeah because I'm gonna have motion sickness tablets around
14:05:13 <Nothing\> they just add a mild stimulant to it to counteract the sleepiness. But from talking to people it sounds like it doesn't work very well
14:05:21 <Ampera> the one thing that is somewhat hard to keep in stock for me is calcium carbonate, magnesium hydrozide, and famotodine
14:05:24 <Ampera> just because I use so damn much of it
14:05:31 <Nothing\> but yeah seriously, benedryl and dramamine are the exact same drugs
14:05:35 <rust_collector> ok, wth is this stuff... di somethingsomethingium
14:05:47 <Ampera> rust_collector, an antihistamine, benadryl
14:05:49 <Nothing\> even though one's called diphenhydramine and the other's called dimenhydrinate
14:06:01 <Nothing\> they're the exact same drug
14:06:03 <Ampera> it's used for allergic reactions, but most people use it to send themselves to the shadow realm
14:06:26 <Nothing\> jut dimenhydrinate has that xanthine compound in it as a mild stimulant
14:06:53 <Ampera> I always wondered what would happen if I mixed 200mg caffeine with a double dose of benadryl
14:07:04 <Nothing\> Ampera, interesting factoid, the "trip" you get from overdosing on it is actually a form of toxicity
14:07:08 <Ampera> presumably I'd start seeing through space-time
14:07:20 <rust_collector> ok, Nothing\ what does this stuff do? diklofenakkalium
14:07:29 <Ampera> I've never overdosed on anything
14:07:31 <Nothing\> the technical term is anticholinergic toxidrome
14:07:36 <Ampera> maybe calcium carbonate, but it's not easy to overdose on that
14:07:53 <Nothing\> rust_collector, in terms of what? recreational effects? or therapeutic effects?
14:07:58 <Ampera> potentially famotodine too, but I try to keep an eye on my consumption of that
14:08:25 <Ampera> rust_collector, it reduces the body's production of histamine, which is I believe a hormone to do with your immune response
14:08:25 <rust_collector> more therapeutic. I can not afford this stuff for fun
14:08:41 <Nothing\> rust_collector, it's just for allergies
14:08:43 <Ampera> so if your body is going apeshit like with allergies it'll calm it down
14:08:50 <Nothing\> standard allergy medication
14:08:56 <Ampera> but it's also a strong depressant, so it has like a 50/50 chance of knocking you the fuck out
14:09:07 <Nothing\> but has a nasty side effect of making one quite drowsy
14:09:16 <Ampera> again, don't consider that nasty
14:09:16 <Nothing\> in some people anyways
14:09:29 <Nothing\> Ampera, if you take it for sleep it's not, no
14:09:45 <Nothing\> but if you're taking it for allergies it is
14:09:48 <Ampera> I figure if I'm that buggered to need it, I'm sleeping anyways
14:09:58 <Ampera> otherwise I usually take cetrizine, but you can only take a single dose of that in 24 hours
14:10:17 <Nothing\> certrizine?
14:10:24 <Nothing\> isn't that an antidepressant?
14:10:35 <Nothing\> i probably misspelled it too
14:10:39 <Ampera> no it's an antihistamine, but a more refined one that doesn't tend to cause as much drowsiness in as many people
14:10:48 <rust_collector> common allergy thing
14:10:48 <Nothing\> ah okay
14:10:56 <Ampera> it has a generic that starts with z, but I forgot what it's called
14:10:59 <Nothing\> like loratidine
14:11:05 <Ampera> it's not Zantec, that's randitine
14:11:07 <rust_collector> zyrtek
14:11:13 <Ampera> yeah
14:11:13 <Ampera> that
14:11:20 <Nothing\> zyrtex sounds right
14:11:23 <Ampera> didn't even need to go look at the bottle
14:11:30 <Ampera> it's zyrtek
14:11:34 <Nothing\> i'm glad i don't have allergies
14:11:56 <rust_collector> i have allergies every other time I go to get tested....
14:11:57 <Ampera> I don't, but I also do
14:12:04 <Nothing\> i mean, i know i'm allergic to something cuz i've had reactions in the past. One was quite severe. But I've never figured out what.
14:12:14 <Nothing\> i tested negative for everything as a kid.
14:12:16 <Ampera> I think I just tend to be in a dusty environment sometimes, so I'm not allergic to anything, I just get irritated
14:12:31 <Nothing\> but the one time, my entire body got soooo damn itchy.
14:12:31 <Ampera> Actually no I am allergic to one thing.
14:12:39 <Ampera> I'm allergic to the entire state of Connecticut
14:12:43 <Nothing\> itchier than i've ever been in my entire life
14:12:50 <rust_collector> ants?
14:12:52 <Ampera> last few times I've visited I was sneezing like a motherfucker
14:12:52 <Nothing\> i just wanted to scratch my skin off
14:12:59 <Nothing\> rust_collector, lol not this time
14:13:08 <Nothing\> then i started to break out in hives
14:13:27 <Ampera> ah yeah I broke out in a massive histemic rash once before
14:13:27 <Nothing\> so i sent my mom to the store to get benedryl since we had none and hopped in the shower for the itching
14:13:43 <Nothing\> when she got back, i took 2 of them and within 20 minutes i was better
14:13:49 <Ampera> which required a hospital visit as I was too young to go to a clinic without the supervision of a parent, for whom one was not near
14:13:53 <Nothing\> i could get out of the shower and the hives were going down
14:14:01 <Nothing\> i dunno what set it off but it was intense
14:14:08 <Ampera> yeah I tried taking benadryl and it didn't do jack shit
14:14:12 <Nothing\> i've never itched so bad in my life
14:14:15 <Ampera> like this was a serious reaction
14:14:27 <Ampera> I think I recall what it was though
14:14:45 <Ampera> my aunt and uncle had their trees in the back yard sprayed with mosquito repellant
14:14:55 <Ampera> but then I had cut one of them down they didn't want, and started burning it
14:15:22 <Ampera> so presumably whatever schmoo they had on the trees burned and poisoned me with whatever sort of bullshit
14:15:27 <Nothing\> i think i have an allergy to dust, cuz after cleaning under my bed, which gets really dusty and kicks up a lot of dust as a result, I get the whole watery eyes, runny nose, itchy face sorta thing.
14:15:50 <rust_collector> everyone is "allergic" to dust
14:16:01 <Nothing\> that's what i was wondering
14:16:09 <Nothing\> if it was just a natural reaction to an irritant
14:16:22 <rust_collector> not an allergy as such, but it does irritate avarything
14:16:24 <Ampera> I have a hankering for pepper right now
14:16:31 <Ampera> just, food with black pepper
14:16:40 <Ampera> I need to get a pepper mill actually, I was thinking of buying a peugeot
14:16:40 <Nothing\> make some peppered beef
14:16:47 <Ampera> I have no beef
14:16:47 <rust_collector> I used to have toast with butter and pepper
14:16:48 <Nothing\> peppered steak is soooo tasty
14:16:59 <Ampera> and what meats I do have are frozen cock stiff
14:17:00 <Nothing\> rust_collector, lol i used to eat raw bacon
14:17:07 <Ampera> I do that still
14:17:09 <Ampera> is delicious

14:17:25 <Nothing\> or at least chew on it anyways. it's damn near impossible to chew raw bacon so it can be swallowed.
14:17:42 <Ampera> how so
14:17:45 <Ampera> I've done it plenty of times
14:17:48 <Nothing\> it's chewy
14:17:53 <Ampera> actually I have a pack of bacon I need to use up at some point
14:17:59 <Ampera> thanks for reminding me
14:18:12 <Ampera> maybe I'll make eggs and bacon tomorrow morning
14:18:18 <Ampera> if only I had bread for toast, oh well
14:18:57 <Ampera> I do have hash brown though...
14:21:14 <rust_collector> well, I have been dumb and said yes to do something tomorrow, so I guess I have to go to bed
14:21:18 <Ampera> I am hungry now though, it's just that I kinda don't want to make anything
14:21:22 <Ampera> and I have nothing easy to snack on
14:21:32 <Ampera> sorry rust_collector, have fun

14:21:45 <rust_collector> oh yes. much fun
14:21:57 <rust_collector> good night
14:22:09 <Ampera> ugh maybe I'll do an all night run
14:22:20 <Ampera> just inject enough liquidized caffine down my eyeballs
14:26:41 <Ampera> I think I'll crack for a smack of mac
14:26:49 <Ampera> with enough pepper to kill several horses

20:14:17 <K> as long it is not swearing or inapropriate language. i'd also check for spelling/grammar errors if anyone else is going to read it
20:15:06 <hsn> K, so im refering to "craziness" as tricky thing .. would u say "inappropriate language" ?
20:15:15 <hsn> for that comment
20:15:22 <K> hm, i would not use that word
20:15:36 <K> but that is just me
20:15:41 <hsn> ok ,, sometimes i write "hsn be careful" xD
20:15:48 <hsn> is that .. not cool ?
20:16:00 <hsn> i guess its not .. i shouldnt talk to my self ..
20:16:05 <K> / there be dragons
20:16:45 <hsn> playing with fireballs
20:16:45 <K> talking to yourself is kinda strange
20:17:03 <hsn> K, its like "todo list" .. but stupid way
20:17:41 <hsn> i should prolly implement proper #todo list that notes the compiler at compilation time or somthing
20:20:01 <K> mmmaybe
20:59:46 <Ysjoelfir> re
21:10:39 <Halcyon> Hey guys... question...
21:11:02 <Halcyon> With MOVs, do they generally fail open or fail short when they've copped too many surges?
21:14:44 <Ysjoelfir> MOVs usually fail short
21:15:41 <Halcyon> So, with lightning protection, do they use a different technology?
21:15:59 <Halcyon> I understand the goal is to divert the surge to ground, but there would also be some residual currant right?
21:16:04 <Halcyon> *current
21:16:19 <Ysjoelfir> The lightning protections I opened up usually used either GDTs or a combination of MOV and GDT
21:16:30 <Ysjoelfir> yes, MOVs have a residual current in normal use
21:16:40 <Ysjoelfir> and yes, thats the goal :)
21:16:42 <Halcyon> Okies, thanks :)
21:17:09 * Ysjoelfir expects T3sl4 to pop up and whack me because I have missed some obvious thing XD
21:17:41 <Ysjoelfir> you can get MOVs from silicium oxide (?) though that are better in terms of residual current and, IIRC, they also fail usually open
21:21:12 <K> You like to MOV it, MOV it?
21:23:43 <Ysjoelfir> yes!

21:25:06 <Halcyon> Heheh well done K
21:30:06 <Halcyon> I honestly don't get the attraction: https://www.news.com.au/sport/more-sports/hulking-195cm-bodybuilder-shows-off-his-out-of-this-world-daily-intake/news-story/db8eaa04f4517c8c1add1ca207ca5a76
21:30:09 <Halcyon> He looks fucking awful
21:30:51 <K> eew.
21:31:34 <Halcyon> Imagine when he is older, he will be so flabby and loose. I honestly don't find that kind of thing attractive in the slightest. I will take a dad bod over that any day.
21:40:26 * hsn checks around .. no armpera exist to share instagram link

21:42:18 <Halcyon> Random
21:42:33 <hsn> hsnsRandomShit
21:42:54 <Ysjoelfir> lol. I think its cute
21:45:53 <hsn> Ysjoelfir, and maybe tvs?
21:46:03 <hsn> gdt and tvs , gdt and mov and tvs ?
21:47:36 <Ysjoelfir> sure, those are a thing as well
21:51:48 <Halcyon> I should go to bed
21:53:03 <Ysjoelfir> no, you should stay with us
21:55:07 <K> forever!
21:55:08 Join: TheDude ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
21:58:48 <hsn> Halcyon, if god converted me to a lightening strike and gave me well to choose my next attack i will attack ur bed so stay away ..
22:04:03 <K> eh?
22:04:21 <Halcyon> My bed isn't very well grounded
22:04:24 <Halcyon> It's wood
22:09:21 <hsn> i can find my way as lightening strike
22:09:46 <Ysjoelfir> so you strike his errected antenna while he's in bed?
22:12:36 <hsn> no Ysjoelfir its i follow least impedance not least resistance :D
22:12:47 <Ysjoelfir> hahaha :D
22:13:14 <Halcyon> You guys are terrible :P
22:13:17 <Halcyon> Goodnight
22:13:20 <hsn> gn
22:13:27 <Ysjoelfir> gn8^^
22:27:49 <hsn> Ysjoelfir,
22:27:55 <Ysjoelfir> yes
22:28:02 <Ysjoelfir> hurry up, I'm going home now :P
22:28:05 <hsn> if a tvs/mov failed short ..
22:28:09 <Ysjoelfir> yes
22:28:10 <rust_collector> good night
22:28:16 <hsn> it can cause fire if u dont have fuse
22:28:16 <Ysjoelfir> hi rusty
22:28:19 <Ysjoelfir> yes
22:28:27 <hsn> but if u have fuse that surge will kick the fuse ass ?
22:28:36 <hsn> even if it didnt fail the mov, tvs
22:29:19 <hsn> for example 30A attacking a MOV for few micro second can burn the fuse ? .. but not the MOV ? ..
22:29:53 <hsn> mr rust salut
22:30:34 <K> prollydepends on fuse type
22:31:08 <K> for some reason i think movs require use of slow fuses
22:31:41 <hsn> K, so meaning , the fuse selection here is critical .. if u dont want to send some maintanance every strike happens .. to replace a stupid fuse
22:33:12 <K> yea
22:39:08 <Ysjoelfir> yes, it can. and you would use a resistor before the mov, usually, to limit the surge current. but yes. so. I'm off for home office. later :)
22:39:49 <rust_collector> off for home office...
22:47:25 <hsn> spit spater ..
22:47:31 <hsn> i forgot
22:47:39 <rust_collector> too late
22:48:03 <hsn> bis spater
22:48:13 <hsn> nothing is late for me rust_collector
22:48:33 <hsn> also .. the owner want me to go to him at some time ... idk why i should go or what to talk
22:49:01 <rust_collector> ok, what are you talking about?
22:49:34 <hsn> rust_collector, yesterday the company owner saw me
22:49:34 <K> to where? to his house?
22:49:50 <rust_collector> owner of?
22:49:54 <rust_collector> oh
22:49:54 <hsn> and said .. hoi i didnt see u long time .. come at some time lets chat etc etc..
22:50:17 <rust_collector> ok
22:50:32 <hsn> K, no .. to his room .. usually if he want to meet me he want me to snitch on my boss xD .. i guess but not sure
22:50:57 <hsn> no .. he just wants to hear .. from me .. like anything related to work
22:51:27 <K> oh.
22:53:02 <rust_collector> make it a lunch meeting, so you at least get something to eat
22:55:28 <hsn> i dont launch
22:56:01 <rust_collector> launch meeting lunch meeting... close enough
22:56:03 <hsn> im thinking to tell him last few months i stopped working and start chatting on IRC
22:56:04 <hsn> xD
22:57:51 <K> westerner influence!
22:59:00 <hsn> well .. idk and i dnt like this feeling of me going to him to either snitch or bullshit
23:12:43 <rust_collector> well, maybe not say you have quit doing anything, but tell him there has been less useful things to do lately?
23:17:13 * rust_collector is cooking pasta tube things
23:36:19 <hsn> rust_collector, i keep telling them to hire someone so i set on my chair and give orders
23:36:33 <hsn> and i promise them that im busy for next 2 years
23:36:35 <hsn> allready
23:36:57 <hsn> it wont make sense to tell him less useful thingy are there xD
23:37:41 * T3sl4 elbows rust_collector
23:38:05 * rust_collector is used to that, and ignores it
23:39:00 <rust_collector> ok, tell him you are overworked, and need a vacation at the companys resort in the alps?
23:43:35 <hsn> rust_collector, yeeeeh now we talking
23:45:33 <K> and some bing for your canmel
23:45:39 <K> bling for camel
23:47:03 <hsn> my bmw ?
23:47:06 <hsn> is my camel
23:47:16 <hsn> ylaaa habibi
23:48:19 <T3sl4> mmmm, caramel
23:48:27 <hsn> K, https://snipboard.io/GNuc8g.jpg
23:49:53 <K> crap no good
23:50:28 <K> use of "0x2" is confusing, i would use some constant or somthing like that
23:51:04 <hsn> im full of constants ... but yeah i got u
23:51:27 <hsn> the thing is full of these : typedef enum{
23:51:27 <hsn> fillingstate_none=0,
23:51:28 <hsn> fillingstate_filling1=1,
23:51:28 <hsn> fillingstate_filling1_done=2,
23:51:28 <hsn> fillingstate_filling2=4,
23:51:28 <hsn> fillingstate_filling2_done=8
23:51:30 <hsn> }filling_state;
23:52:35 <hsn> i think i might make 0x2 to 2 .. it makes sense .. without constant
23:52:50 <hsn> dealing with it as counter ..
23:53:03 <rust_collector> hsn, I think you should consider writing that thing in basic
23:53:27 <hsn> ew basic .. idk that
23:53:40 <hsn> i barely stand c .. :D
23:53:49 <hsn> which is sexy language tbh
23:53:52 <T3sl4> BASIC is more basic, as its name implies
23:55:17 <K> i would name constants with uppercase letters, more readable because does not mix up with variable names
23:55:29 <K> cosntants/enum members
23:56:33 <T3sl4> const HSN_IS_A_SILLY_BOY = 1;
23:56:56 <T3sl4> if (hsnMentalState == HSN_IS_A_SILLY_BOY) {printf("lul\n")}
23:57:37 <K> looks like lua
23:58:17 <T3sl4> is lua also in the c-style braces family?
23:58:21 <T3sl4> i never used it
