00:27:15 <electrohead> o/
00:35:33 <Ysjoelfir> afterpreevenings, mr. head!
00:35:43 <electrohead> lol, hey man
00:40:10 <Ysjoelfir> Its so strange... our cat is snorring.
00:40:15 <Ysjoelfir> like... realy hard
00:40:35 <Ysjoelfir> sounds like me when I'm drunk and having a cold
00:44:07 <electrohead> hahaha
00:44:15 <electrohead> I've never heard a cat snore before
00:47:27 <T3sl4> i think i have
00:47:31 <T3sl4> but its been a while
00:48:31 <Ysjoelfir> should I try to record it?
00:48:52 * T3sl4 shrug
00:52:18 <electrohead> if you want :p
00:52:43 * T3sl4 sprinkles the channel in assorted chip inductors
00:54:09 <T3sl4> i'm building a filter, for once in a while
00:54:25 <T3sl4> wait, i might still need those
00:54:30 <Ysjoelfir> ew :D filters!
00:54:31 * T3sl4 sweeps the floor a little
00:54:43 * Ysjoelfir starts the robot vacuu
00:54:43 <Ysjoelfir> m
00:55:15 <T3sl4> i hope the vacuum has a filter ...well, now it does
00:55:44 <Ysjoelfir> :P
01:44:17 <Ysjoelfir> HAH! Got her. only from far as she woke up everytime I came closer with the phone, but I think its audible^^
01:45:48 <Ysjoelfir> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1m2pw6qM9TXvjG2MB0EtvyDAt39SURSVA/view?usp=sharing
01:46:00 <T3sl4> that must be really grating
01:46:42 <Ysjoelfir> its kinda cute. ^^ having such a small animal make such noises
01:47:16 <T3sl4> or that. to obsess over it enough to record it ;)
01:48:39 <Ysjoelfir> :P I was just curious if I could capture it^^
01:49:01 <T3sl4> well, it worked \o/
01:49:26 <Ysjoelfir> yes!
02:09:21 <T3sl4> hrm, well i probably shouldn't try and press on a freshly cut sheetmetal edge
02:09:34 <T3sl4> lest it, kind of sink into my thumbflesh like that
02:11:06 <Ysjoelfir> admit it, you just wanted to try how stable your thumb is.
02:11:58 <T3sl4> hey, that's another Kuschelpony joke
02:12:32 <Ysjoelfir> xD
02:18:56 <T3sl4> hm weird, i've got a very feeble tone at 1GHz
02:19:30 <T3sl4> it could be a harmonic of the 100MHz in this thing, but why that harmonic and no others?
02:22:00 * T3sl4 shrug

02:23:39 <Nothing\> holy fuck what a week
02:23:58 <Nothing\> how've you guys been?
02:24:50 * Ampera hugs Nothing\
02:24:58 * Nothing\ hugs Ampera <3 <3 <3
02:25:00 <Ampera> haven't seen you in a while, thought you might have accidentally gotten a life
02:25:02 <Nothing\> you're a good friend Ampera
02:25:05 <Nothing\> and a good man
02:25:08 <Nothing\> person
02:25:15 <Ampera> I don't know which I disagree with the most
02:25:24 <Nothing\> well you know what they say
02:25:27 <Nothing\> you are your worst critic
02:25:35 <Nothing\> but trust me, you are
02:25:36 <Ampera> so there are better critics?
02:25:37 <Ampera> man
02:25:42 <Ampera> I better step up my game...
02:25:56 <Nothing\> i wouldn't say there is any one person who is a better critic
02:26:07 <Ampera> There's more than one?
02:26:23 <Nothing\> but i think if the majority, or at least a bunch of people tell you you're a good person and a good friend that's pretty strong evidence in favor for it
02:26:30 <Nothing\> but i understand how difficult it can be to believe it
02:26:37 <Nothing\> i don't believe it about myself
02:26:38 <Ampera> You're the only one who usually says it, so
02:26:39 <Ampera> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
02:26:54 <Nothing\> given that i've been the cause of a lot of my problems, it's hard for me to come to terms with that and not hate myself for it
02:27:10 <Nothing\> i mean, i'd be livid with anyone else who did even a fraction of the damage i've done to my life
02:27:16 <Ampera> If you can acknowledge you have been the cause of your own problems, then you can know it is within your power to fix them too.
02:27:30 <Nothing\> it absolutely is, and i am fixing them
02:27:45 <Nothing\> i've fixed a lot of problems, i'm not at all the same man i was even just 2 years ago
02:27:59 <Ampera> I'm working hard myself. I don't know how I found it, but I know that I've found determination, and that is what is the most important.
02:28:03 <Ampera> When there is a will, there is a way.
02:28:05 <Nothing\> truth be told, my legal problems caused me to do a lot of growing as a person
02:28:29 <Ampera> Mistakes are the price one pays to learn.
02:28:45 <Nothing\> that, too. your perseverance is enviable
02:29:13 <Nothing\> then again, i've been dealing with my shit since i was younger than you
02:29:19 <Nothing\> since 99 at least
02:29:22 <Nothing\> when i was 14
02:29:33 <Ampera> was about to say, wow, you're over 99? then you ruined it
02:29:38 <Nothing\> lol
02:29:54 <Nothing\> but anyways what i was gonna bring up
02:30:04 <Nothing\> did i ever tell you i was seeing a therapist?
02:30:09 <Nothing\> am seeing a therapist
02:30:11 <Ampera> As far as I know you were seeing two
02:30:21 <Ampera> though it's possible one was a psychologist
02:30:23 <Nothing\> a psychiatrist, and a therapist who is not a doctor
02:30:25 <Ampera> or a psychiatrist
02:30:27 <Ampera> or whatever
02:30:40 <Ampera> idfk, it's all jungle medicine to me
02:30:57 <Nothing\> the therapist i'm forced to see and cooperate with as per my probation order. lest I be charged with breaching that order and go back to jail for not longer than 1 year.
02:31:07 <Nothing\> well anyways
02:31:50 <Ampera> You seem more on the upbeat side, so I'm presuming something good happened
02:32:08 <Ampera> Either that or I should call up the place I used to do acting classes with and recommend you as an expert :P
02:32:24 <Nothing\> he's just got this small office in a house by himself, very private. Last appointment he was under the impression it was supposed to be over the phone, so when my mum and i are just down the road he calls me to start the appointment and i tell him we're just coming up to his office. So he says to give him a few minutes.
02:33:01 <Nothing\> we get there, try the front door, it's locked, knock several times, no response. Stand around a few minutes to no avail and go around to the back where we find a door to get in.
02:33:03 <Ampera> I recall he reeked of weed
02:33:08 <Nothing\> YES
02:33:13 <Nothing\> thank you for saving me that
02:33:19 <Nothing\> i wasn't sure if i told you or not
02:33:24 <Ampera> anyways, you were planning on reporting him or something
02:33:26 <Nothing\> but anyways, i've formulated a plan
02:33:26 <Ampera> did you get him?
02:33:42 <Ampera> you told me, I don't recall the exact order, but you had a few avenues to deal with it
02:33:53 <Nothing\> yeah i've got the paperwork to file a formal complaint against him with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario regarding that
02:34:07 <Nothing\> and his constantly pressuring me to stop taking my methadone and clonazepam
02:34:32 <Nothing\> clonazepam being a med my psychiatrist prescribes me
02:34:39 <Ampera> Yeah, my last, one, and only therapist was a bit fun.
02:34:44 <Nothing\> even though he's not a doctor and has no business giving such advice
02:35:17 <Ampera> I had maybe three appointments with him, and got fuck all done each time, and the last one was where he said, oh yeah I'm gonna need 6-8 more appointments with you before I write you a letter of recommendation for HRT
02:35:19 <Nothing\> every therapist and mental health professional i've seen, save for my current psychiatrist (maybe) has wronged me and/or broken my trust in some way
02:35:25 <Nothing\> there's no way i'll ever trust another one again
02:35:32 <Ampera> which, might seem innocent enough, if a bit specific, but they guy was fucking with our insurance and forcing us to pay out of pocket
02:36:00 <Nothing\> Ampera, yup
02:36:07 <Nothing\> that sounds about right
02:36:10 <Ampera> Nah, this guy just wanted an extension on his house or something dumb like that. He probably knew nothing about what was wrong with me or anything
02:36:19 <Nothing\> i've had dentists that took advantage of my insurance
02:36:25 <Ampera> I didn't even want to go to him to begin with, but I did because i hadn't tried it before
02:36:33 <Nothing\> putting in shoddy fillings that would fall out after less than 3 months so they could do them again
02:36:44 <Nothing\> then blaming my poor dental hygiene for it
02:36:52 <Ampera> I'm sure there are therapists who can help people, if there weren't, nobody would pay for them
02:37:01 <Nothing\> meanwhile not one single filling my new dentist has put in has ever fallen out in the several years i've been seeing him
02:37:04 <Ampera> but I probably knew more about my disorder than he did, which isn't a great starting point
02:37:26 <Ampera> My dentist is great, I go in, do the thing, get out
02:37:36 <Ampera> they'll tell me shit like go floss, but I ignore them and whatever
02:37:41 <Nothing\> Ampera, yeah this guy says i'm a drug addict and actually asked my mom at one point if i was using his bathroom to use drugs
02:37:42 <Ampera> haven't been to one since mid 2019 though
02:37:55 <Nothing\> because on account of being pre-diabetic and anxious, i go to the bathroom a lot
02:38:06 <Nothing\> this, despite him knowing i'm drug tested weekly at the methadone clinic
02:38:22 <Nothing\> and yeah, i know i abuse my prescriptions and do have a drug problem
02:38:29 <Nothing\> but he's referring to illicit substances
02:38:39 <Ampera> I gathered
02:39:00 <Nothing\> he seems to think i'm still abusing opioids, which i've actually managed to start taking my methadone as prescribed several months ago and have continued doing that
02:39:24 <Nothing\> as for my clonazepam, i now give my mother the bottle every time i get it filled so she can give me only what i'm prescribed for the day
02:39:29 <Ampera> Anyways, anything new to do with him, or are you still lining up paperwork to do him in?
02:39:55 <Nothing\> i'm still considering the paper work
02:40:03 <Nothing\> and whether i want to bring it up with my PO or not
02:40:21 <Ampera> I'd say the PO would be the first person I'd tell, but it's all up to you
02:40:31 <Nothing\> i expressed a great deal of anger towards him recently so i'm afraid they'll just assume it's an attempt at retribution for that
02:40:54 <Nothing\> but since my mom was there and smelled it and observed his paranoid behavior as well, i have her to back up my claims
02:40:56 <Ampera> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
02:41:16 <Ampera> You are the person who is in the best position to determine a course of action, I can only make small comments.
02:41:33 <Nothing\> and the papers for the complaint made it clean that it wouldn't be anonymous since they'd have to request the relevant patient files for the complaint
02:41:52 <Nothing\> personally, i think something should be done
02:42:19 <Nothing\> my one fear is that since he's not an actual doctor that he won't be registered with the College and i won't be able to make a complaint about him
02:43:41 <Ampera> "College of Registered Psychotherapists" doesn't sound like a doctoral institution to me
02:43:41 <Nothing\> anywho i'm gonna have some breakfast and try to forget about this shit. even though i've been ruminating about it forever
02:43:50 <Ampera> it sounds like, well, a college of registered therapists
02:43:57 <Ampera> Good idea
02:44:04 <Ampera> don't dwell on it until it's time to deal with it
02:44:13 <Nothing\> Ampera, it is, cuz they've also got a College of Physicians and a College of Pharmacists
02:44:24 <Nothing\> they're the governing bodies behind those types
02:44:31 <Ampera> but therapists aren't doctors
02:44:36 <Nothing\> some are
02:44:40 <Nothing\> psychologists are
02:44:49 <Ampera> but those are psychologists
02:44:54 <Ampera> not exclusively therapists
02:44:57 <Nothing\> yeah it's a tough call
02:45:03 <Ampera> well look it up then
02:45:19 <Ampera> presumably they say what their scope is, and wikipedia or something probably states how therapists are registered under canadian law
02:45:20 <Nothing\> yeah i know each doctor has an ID number with the college
02:45:27 <Nothing\> so they must do the same with the other colleges
02:45:54 <Nothing\> well, i was going to call them anyways before submitting the complaint to get more information
02:46:22 <Ampera> Anyways, enjoy your breakfast, I might go and make myself some food at some pint
02:46:39 <Ampera> or, if I'm particularly devious, order food out, as I've largely been fasting all week, so it might be a good time for a treat
02:47:35 <Nothing\> will do, thanks for the talk man. As always I really appreciate it. It helps a lot to have at least one person I can get this shit off my chest with.
02:47:44 <Ampera> no problem
02:48:00 <Ampera> no matter what the ordeal, always remember you will be better off having to go through it
02:48:18 <Ampera> If you want to see a better life, you will do what it takes, that is what I'm slowly learning.
02:48:22 <Nothing\> that's the only thing thought that kept me from offing myself after my ex left me
02:48:37 <Ampera> Glad it kept you
02:48:45 <Nothing\> me too

04:27:04 <Kuschelpony> good evening
04:32:07 <T3sl4> o/
04:43:04 <Ampera> good odding, Kuschelpony
04:43:43 <Kuschelpony> i prefer symmetry which usually leads to even numbers of th ings
04:52:10 <Ysjoelfir> good preafterevening mr. pony
05:09:29 <Andre> good evening
05:32:52 <T3sl4> Ysjoelfir: oh cool, two mantis and a rock are enough damage to take out an ion drone exactly when it fires. they end up stunned by its charge, at the same time it dies
05:33:13 <Ysjoelfir> lol^^ nice
05:36:24 <T3sl4> on a related note, defense drones can shoot down missiles, moments after they themselves have been destroyed. apparently the drone's fireball is still active
05:38:44 <rust_collector> zzzzzz
05:43:50 <T3sl4> i see you're sawing lots of logs, very impressive rust_collector
05:44:26 <rust_collector> thanks, I am pretty happy with it so far.
05:55:08 <Nothing\> oh joy
05:55:22 <rust_collector> yes!
05:55:31 <Nothing\> got a letter saying i've gotta go to the police station and register for some stuff re: my arrest through some detective
05:55:36 <Nothing\> not my idea of fun times
05:56:02 <Nothing\> been trying to get a hold of him to no avail but i've got till the beginning of february to do it, lest i be charged again
05:56:03 * Ampera hugs Nothing\
05:56:10 * Nothing\ hugs Ampera <3
05:56:13 <Nothing\> thanks buddy
05:56:38 <Nothing\> you know Ampera, I literally had nobody to confide in in stuff like this until I met you
05:56:43 <Nothing\> until I met all of you guys
05:56:59 <Ampera> ok
05:57:04 <Nothing\> you guys have been such great, and understanding friends and I just want you all to know how much I appreciate that.
05:57:09 <Ampera> ok
05:57:23 <Nothing\> i know, praise feels weird lol
05:57:27 <Ampera> ok
05:57:29 <rust_collector> meh, ok
05:57:42 <Ysjoelfir> So. I'm having a norwegian dish today
05:57:49 <Nothing\> Ysjoelfir, surstromming?
05:57:50 <Nothing\> lol
05:57:55 <Ysjoelfir> no, thats swedish
05:57:57 <Ampera> that's Swedish
05:57:57 <Nothing\> wait, is that norwegian?
05:58:01 <Nothing\> yeah that's what i thought
05:58:25 <Ampera> Norway is Sweden if Sweden got fucking curb stomped by Germany in the 40's
05:58:38 <Ampera> er, might have been late 30's
05:58:41 <Nothing\> when i hear norwegian, i picture the Inuit in the north eating raw whale blubber
05:59:05 <Nothing\> i wonder what, if anything is the difference between blubber and fat
05:59:09 <Nothing\> i should find out
05:59:22 <rust_collector> yes, you should, lol
05:59:22 <Nothing\> oh speaking of questions, i had one regarding how to control RGB LEDs
05:59:29 <Ampera> it was 1940, so I was right originally
05:59:34 <Nothing\> but first, i'll recreat a diagram of how i set it up
05:59:56 <rust_collector> use your phone?
06:00:17 * Ampera faxbombs rust_collector
06:00:18 <rust_collector> that is the best way to control rgb! you can do it over the internet
06:00:23 <Ysjoelfir> I made Fiskepudding. Its nice. But what they say (traditional norwegian food can be a bit bland) seems true in that case.
06:00:27 * Ysjoelfir adds tons of salt
06:00:48 <rust_collector> yes, that is filler material
06:01:27 <Ysjoelfir> very nice filler actually
06:02:39 <rust_collector> I guess you could use small bits of it in soup
06:02:55 <Ysjoelfir> I made two versions, as the one from the kokeboken basically screamed "I'M BLAND!" into my face. But I wanted to try it the exact way they suggested. For my version I added... well, spices. When I finished this plate I'm curious how the Ysjoelfir-Version is.
06:03:16 <Ysjoelfir> I assume you can, yes. that could be a nice addition ot a fish soup. or potato soup. or potato-fish-soup
06:03:26 <rust_collector> thai-pudding.
06:03:31 <rust_collector> interesting
06:03:43 * Ampera serves rust_collector tie pudding
06:04:00 <Ampera> allsorts of ties, neckties, bowties, cable ties
06:04:07 <Ampera> zipties
06:04:29 <Ampera> in a nice tie dye sauce
06:04:44 <rust_collector> a non-vegetarian alternative to tofu
06:04:57 <rust_collector> oh, nice, thank you you
06:05:37 <Nothing\> https://tinyurl.com/yxqmu7ey
06:05:48 <rust_collector> Railroad ties will be fill of fiber, and antioxidants. and cheap.
06:05:54 <Nothing\> alright, there's the circuit I had for controlling the color of an RGB LED
06:06:08 <Nothing\> only imagine the 3 seperate LEDs are the RGB LED
06:06:08 <Ysjoelfir> does it work with whale blubber?
06:06:20 <Nothing\> for some reason when i used the circuit, it started smoking
06:06:31 <Ysjoelfir> I think I know why
06:06:34 <Nothing\> i thought maybe it was because i had the POTs in parallel
06:06:58 <Nothing\> but playing with this, it doesn't look like changing the resistance of one POT affects the resistance of the others
06:07:19 <Nothing\> unless that's a problem with the software
06:07:28 <Nothing\> Ysjoelfir, what do you think went wrong?
06:07:52 <Ysjoelfir> I am almost certain that you did something wrong.
06:08:06 <Ysjoelfir> maybe you even made a mistake.
06:08:15 <rust_collector> how much current does a rgb led.. uhm.
06:08:16 <Nothing\> perhaps even, an error?
06:08:21 <rust_collector> handle?
06:08:25 <Ysjoelfir> that could well be the case
06:08:47 <Nothing\> rust_collector, I assumed 20ma for each element, but they were recieving less than half of that, or should have been anyways.
06:09:07 <Nothing\> and I think it was the POTs that were smoking. You'd think if an LED were smoking it would burn out
06:09:57 <Nothing\> in fairness i have no clue how much current the POTs can handle, but like I said it was less than 10ma I was putting through it
06:10:02 <Nothing\> they were 10k POTs
06:10:31 <Nothing\> with a 1K resistor in series to prevent overcurrent when the POT's turned all the way down
06:10:46 <Nothing\> which i forgot i to include in the diagram but oh well
06:30:35 <steve30> I'm up to 9 subscribers on PornHub.
06:31:20 <rust_collector> WOOHOO!
06:34:17 <rust_collector> Ysjoelfir, today is pizza day, as you should know. I tried kebab dressing under the cheese today. we sill see if someone ends up crying

08:11:24 <rust_collector> I guess I have the evening off. as usual
08:14:19 <Ysjoelfir> nice :) I am jealous
08:14:58 <rust_collector> oh, are you being forced to watch some important movie again
08:17:33 <Ysjoelfir> no. but I would like to have more time to tinker.
08:26:57 <rust_collector> I am looking at my truck tracking device. I have to figure out where I can power it up. it has a bunch of pins, for various things, and power, on the same connector
08:27:56 <Ysjoelfir> I like those trackers actually. though our drivers hated them, back in the time I worked at a transportation company

08:29:44 <Guest|62908> https://solarenergy3.com/solarpo1444278962
08:32:47 <Ysjoelfir> Hello to you as well!
08:33:08 <rust_collector> yeah, they are nice, in a way
08:34:05 <rust_collector> they were almost unusable, when we got them, but it sort of works well now
08:34:58 <rust_collector> the older ones, like the one I have, are in a box, and has a little touch screen you can put where you want it, the newer one uses a tablet

08:42:12 <steve30> free energy eh?
08:42:51 <rust_collector> yeah, why not? thanks for offering that
08:44:26 <rust_collector> I would like a small power plant behind the house
08:46:02 <Ysjoelfir> I take a big one
08:46:05 <Ysjoelfir> otoh
08:46:14 <Ysjoelfir> no, thanks. producing energy is costly in germanistan
08:46:52 <rust_collector> hide it in a pizza oven
08:54:58 <Ysjoelfir> that sounds like a plan
08:55:33 <rust_collector> hire some albanians to run the pizza store, to cover up your free energy business
08:59:12 <Ysjoelfir> I'm not sure if our local quality albanian guy store is equiped for that
09:00:19 <rust_collector> put some in your store. it would be like the government, just moving non-money between different budgets. so you end up with very low cost albanians
09:00:41 <rust_collector> tax free and all
09:00:57 <rust_collector> I bet you can find then cheap on ebay
09:04:22 <Ysjoelfir> probably xD
09:05:15 <rust_collector> Oooh, you know... albania... I think all those little igloo shaped "bunkers" are the start of a great pizza chain
09:06:03 <rust_collector> or you can add skewer racks, and... hmmm
09:18:12 <DHess_US> Huh, I wasn't the only one who noticed, https://support.google.com/websearch/thread/93732196?hl=en

10:01:13 <Ysjoelfir> yes.
10:09:09 <rust_collector> i really do not think i want to do anything today. So far, I am doing ok.
10:09:48 <rust_collector> it sounds like we are going to the wifes trailer, to push the snow off the roof
10:10:04 <rust_collector> maybe tomorrow, maybe monday
10:15:46 <rust_collector> hmm, there is a mouse on my desk. i wonder who put it there. it is not mine
10:16:12 <T3sl4> yaaaayyyy
10:31:24 <rust_collector> ok little mouse, into the bin you go.
10:33:58 <electrohead> alright, it finally slowed down here at the shop
10:34:08 <electrohead> I can chat/say hi for a tiny bit, before more people come in

12:21:42 <electrohead> Halcyon: hey, that full size rack sold before the dude got back to me >.<
12:22:02 <electrohead> I'm a tiny bit sad about that one, he was selling it for $50 or best offer, guh
12:23:12 <rust_collector> what is included in a rack? it is just the frame to mount stuff in?
12:24:22 <Halcyon> Oh no :(
12:24:27 <Halcyon> There will be others
12:24:32 <Halcyon> They pop up all the time, check ebay too
12:29:34 <electrohead> the one listed came with a KVM of some sort, but not many details were shared
12:29:43 <electrohead> and yeah, it was the whole frame, sides, back panel, and the door
12:29:51 <rust_collector> i wonder if phone networky racks are the same size
12:30:12 <electrohead> as far as ebay - ehh, no cheap used full-sized racks on there, plus shipping is a fuck ton
12:30:20 <electrohead> rust_collector: I don't think they are?
12:30:32 <rust_collector> I have a feeling they are larger
12:33:10 <Halcyon> Meh, you don't need a KVM, you use Linux :P

13:35:28 <electrohead> but, I do need to get to bed earlier tonight, than last night
13:35:38 <electrohead> need to wake up way earlier, as I open the shop tomorrow
13:35:40 <Halcyon> Soz
13:35:48 <electrohead> Soz?
13:35:52 <Halcyon> Sorry
13:35:59 <Halcyon> I feel bad for keeping you up

13:36:53 <Halcyon> Yep
13:36:57 <electrohead> hahaha
13:37:23 <electrohead> I want to be at the shop by 1030 tomorrow, just so I can be open for 11
13:37:28 <Halcyon> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8hrQA7vvfE
13:37:37 <Halcyon> That's cool. I want this
13:37:44 <electrohead> technically, our sunday hours are from 12-6, but I like to open early, as the previous sunday person did that
13:37:47 * electrohead clicks
13:37:51 <Halcyon> Best of both worlds, original hardware but unlimited storage
13:38:08 <electrohead> err.. /me copies, and pastes into a new terminal, and plays with mpv
13:38:21 <Halcyon> mpv ?
13:38:40 <rust_collector> sort of like mplayer
13:39:36 <electrohead> I think it's a bit better, in terms of features
13:39:50 <rust_collector> still, it is a similar thing
13:40:24 <electrohead> Halcyon: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv
13:40:39 <electrohead> I like the built-in support for youtube-dl
13:57:52 <rust_collector> that is interesting in a weird way too. I wonder what version of windows I had back in those days. it was 3.something
14:01:22 <rust_collector> not that I used it for anything. i think I had a game or two that ran in windows, but most stuff was dos
14:01:47 <rust_collector> I think alley cat was in windows

14:34:16 <electrohead> I remember windows 95, and win98 second edition
14:36:21 <rust_collector> I had an old olivetti pc, that mom borrowed from work. that was in... the later 80s some time. i never actually used 95 or 98 for anything. My first windows pc was on xp
14:37:44 <rust_collector> that old olivetti had dos something, and windows something, a few games, word perfect, and autocad.

16:50:08 <EEVBlog> Hello there, MrMobodies!
16:50:41 <MrMobodies> I ordered another KVM HP 601A switch with some VGA splitters for my experiments
16:50:43 <MrMobodies> https://imgur.com/a/PzJ8Wnh
16:51:57 <MrMobodies> I can invite get 2 or 3 later to test it out and then I can start testing those PCI cards with some that I am willing to give away.

16:56:04 <MrMobodies> thought it would be an opportunity for a bit of fun since I can't go out anywhere due to the lockdown.
16:56:48 <MrMobodies> also the dongles i have include USB media sharing.

23:09:17 <Ysjoelfir> mornings
23:14:29 <rust_collector> hmm, yes
23:18:31 <Ysjoelfir> I just made blins. They were a taste.
23:19:18 <rust_collector> a taste is good. making stuff like the noodles I am working on, and having them not taste is boring
23:19:28 <Ysjoelfir> indeed
23:19:57 <rust_collector> which is the bad side of cheap noodles, I guess
23:21:39 <rust_collector> so, did you have any interesting experiences with your blinmaking? did you use the blinmaker program?
23:22:50 <Ysjoelfir> No. I used a cast iron skillet. that was nice.
23:23:56 <rust_collector> but how can you figure out how many blins you can make, if you do not use the blinmaker program?!!? crazy germans
23:24:23 <Ysjoelfir> we're enschineeeers. we can calculate.
23:28:36 <rust_collector> I have 7 egg
23:28:50 <rust_collector> but I am already making the noodles
23:29:52 <Ysjoelfir> did you try the recipe I gave you recently?
23:32:59 <rust_collector> nope... the chinken thing? still no... just making sure I did not miss anything
23:33:39 <Ysjoelfir> yes, exactly that
23:34:02 <rust_collector> I have it pasted somewhere, lol
23:35:25 <Ysjoelfir> lol
23:36:53 <rust_collector> make butterless chicken, add butter in the middle of process... yes, that was the one
23:37:45 <Ysjoelfir> yep, roughly ^^
