00:01:42 <rust_collector> ok, that was breakfastlunchdinner. Time to... avoid doing anything for a little bit
00:03:06 <Ysjoelfir> good plan!
00:03:37 <rust_collector> thanks. i am pretty happy with it
00:11:07 <electrohead> o/

00:29:16 <rust_collector> oh, that was fun. now I will maybe do something again
00:29:17 <Ysjoelfir> electrohead!
00:29:18 * Ampera hugs electrohead
00:29:24 * Ampera smacks Ysjoelfir with a smackwurst
00:29:41 <Ysjoelfir> woah! is that related to a Schmierwurst?
00:30:03 <Ampera> only the wurst traits of it.
00:30:17 * electrohead adds mustard on top
00:30:19 <electrohead> hey Ampera
00:30:30 <Ampera> hi electrohead, how are you?
00:30:37 <electrohead> just waking up
00:30:49 <rust_collector> why? it is a useless day
00:31:03 <rust_collector> go back to bed
00:33:47 <Ampera> ^
00:51:36 <electrohead> I work today
00:51:46 <Ampera> I'm broken like always

01:40:05 <Ysjoelfir> Mr. Pony, mr. Nothings King was looking for you
01:40:26 <Kuschelpony> yes, please

01:55:56 <Kuschelpony> sooo, just connected the TPA3118 boards and they run well on my laptop, but i consider getting an external USB soundcard to make it more self-contained
02:18:23 <Ysjoelfir> I hope you use a tube based soundcard!
02:19:51 <Kuschelpony> i have not yet rented an hall to build an ENIAC sized USB-device
02:20:09 <Ysjoelfir> damn!
02:28:53 <Ysjoelfir> mrs spouse had a great idea how I could dress with the mask to not look toooo creepy xD
02:29:03 <Kuschelpony> hihi, im curious
02:29:31 <Kuschelpony> btw:
02:29:41 <T3sl4> hrm, i'm not sure that you could create anything 100%-toob that would talk anything USB-related, even HDI might be too much
02:29:53 <Kuschelpony> i still have not registered here but if anyone wants to contact me i also have an XMPP @[email protected]
02:30:13 <Ysjoelfir> uuh, jabber :D thats been a loooooooooong time
02:30:25 * Ysjoelfir writes that down and considers reviving jabber
02:30:35 <Kuschelpony> mmh, i could imagine I2S well and maybe also uncompressed SPDIF but anything more modern will get into really lots of stuff
02:30:36 * T3sl4 ICQs Ysjoelfir

02:30:52 <T3sl4> yeah, PCM is ancient, as in toob-ancient
02:30:53 <Ysjoelfir> T3sl4: 238569195 IIRC
02:30:58 <T3sl4> haha
02:31:07 <Kuschelpony> i like Jabber, its one of the few well going messnegers that does not require an phone number
02:31:08 <T3sl4> i had a... 163M-something i think
02:31:46 <T3sl4> Ysjoelfir: chef, or shower cap?
02:31:46 <Ysjoelfir> I have no idea if my ICQ is even still alive. haven't used that for ages
02:32:12 <Ysjoelfir> mrs. spouses sleeping cap. its like a shower cap, but made from satin.
02:32:20 <Kuschelpony> i never used ICQ
02:32:26 <T3sl4> satan showers, got it
02:32:31 <Ysjoelfir> xD
02:33:09 * steve30 is 302620885 on ICQ.
02:33:16 <steve30> Never really used it though.
02:33:58 * Ysjoelfir has the impression that we're reviving old messengers here
02:35:08 <Ysjoelfir> HAH! that WAS my icq number^^ at least I could login with that and my ancient password
02:35:10 <Kuschelpony> steve, obviously you are the retro computer fan :)
02:35:36 <steve30> How I managed to learn that number I don't know, but i did
02:35:48 <Ysjoelfir> same here
02:36:12 <T3sl4> i'm sure i memorized mine at some point, but i unmemorized it over the years
02:36:46 <Kuschelpony> i still remember my mobile phone number i used until something 12 years ago
02:36:56 <Kuschelpony> before i went off mobile
02:37:21 * steve30 has had his mobile number for 16 years
02:37:40 <T3sl4> i remember my... oh maybe i don't quite remember our home phone number growing up
02:37:46 <T3sl4> think i do tho
02:39:03 <Ysjoelfir> I remember my old bank account number I haven't been using for five years, though I still haven't memorized my new one
02:53:48 <coppice> Ysjoelfir: remembering things from the old days, but not from the recent past means you are going downhill fast
02:53:59 <Ysjoelfir> yep, thats true
03:12:55 <Ysjoelfir> Everyone who can read german might be chuckling by the name of this swedish lamp :D https://www.raeer.com/shopexd.asp?id=19408

04:21:47 <Kuschelpony> soo, after some hours listening
04:22:15 <Kuschelpony> 80% of my already very selected music collection s.... on my new speakers
04:22:24 <Kuschelpony> 20% are GREAT!
04:24:56 <Ysjoelfir> I decided to delete lots of music recently. was a shitty idea when I found out that amazon music is a) not downloadable, b) sounds shit
04:27:41 <Kuschelpony> i can agree about the second part, thats how people want music to sound today :(
04:28:19 <Kuschelpony> about downloading from amazon, no idea, either i get it with youtube-dl (also works on Bandcamp and Twitter) or its inaccible for me anyway
04:28:53 <Kuschelpony> i never deal with advertising and trackers, have not even an idea how Youtube website would look after 10 years of not usinf it
04:28:53 <steve30> I purchased an MP3 from Amazon back in 2008.
04:29:06 <steve30> That was the one and only time I have purchased a music download
04:29:13 <Kuschelpony> mmh
04:29:37 <Kuschelpony> i would happily purchase some special songs if i get specific versions that have been mixed my old engineers
04:30:03 <Ysjoelfir> absolutely yes
04:30:41 <Kuschelpony> ironically, what you can download today from Youtube is better than CDs bought a few years ago
04:31:09 <Ysjoelfir> which is very sad. or great if you view it from youtubes perspective
04:31:25 <Kuschelpony> the reason why phono records sound mostly better than CDs is so often just how different the production was even if its supposed to be identical albums
04:31:45 <Kuschelpony> phono records = old recording engineers
04:32:06 <Kuschelpony> CD = a generation of "i want it to sound like all the other blaring things in the radio"
04:32:19 <Kuschelpony> Youtube = sometimes much closer to the original tapes back
04:33:06 <Ysjoelfir> true
04:35:24 <Kuschelpony> as far as i hear and mentally (as well as on the scope :) ) analyze music, the large dynamic compression is only the second worst problem, even worse (at least for my ears) is the short time constant limiting of peaks, which makes thesound aggresive to me
04:37:16 <Kuschelpony> on the positive side, a good pair of wideband speakers with mostly constant group delay is a very sharp tool to listen to music
04:38:04 <Kuschelpony> hope i can get tomorrow in some way a pair of capacitors to finish the low frequency equilization for a more balanced sound
04:42:01 <Kuschelpony> sorry for flooding the chat with my brain dump
04:42:17 <Ysjoelfir> I wonder why they even started with this whole compression shit. I know about the loudness war and why that was, but.. I can't immagine that this is still a thing nowadays
04:42:22 * electrohead dumps Kuschelpony's brain
04:44:15 <Kuschelpony> i DO have ideas
04:44:43 <Kuschelpony> one reason was that you should get the music stronger on sh... ehm small kitchen radios and such
04:44:57 <Kuschelpony> and in the car where there is huge noise floor
04:45:17 <Kuschelpony> so dynamic compression was used to make it easier listenable to the majority of people
04:45:39 <Kuschelpony> those of us enjoying a classic Hi-Fi were just falling out of commercial consideration
04:46:04 <Kuschelpony> at the sametime, digital mastering allowed to do tricks that were just too expensive and insane i nthe analog world
04:48:10 <Kuschelpony> its stil lgoing on today, the only positive is that youtube is set up like that too compressed music sounds even shittier and less loud than better mastered, so even if i dont like the company i have to say the brought us slightyl better music back
04:53:22 <Ysjoelfir> I hate that. I enjoyed listening to music over headphones or with my great speakers on my grundig hifi system, but I notice that its getting worse and worse.
04:53:59 <coppice> Kuschelpony: at the other end of the scale are classical recordings that maintain the full dynamic range of a performance in a concert hall, which can only be listened to with a remote control in hand. You need to turn them up to be able to hear the quiet passages, then turn them down as the music gets loud before the neighbours complain
04:54:10 <Kuschelpony> i just enjoy it back a bit more since today
04:55:13 <Ysjoelfir> coppice, thats basically the sensation I have with every modern movie. I absolutely hate that.
04:55:16 <Kuschelpony> coppice, well fully agreed, but i am hapy to have music where the pianissimo parts get under the noise level of a quiet home while fortissimo stil ldoes not annoy too much neighbours :)
04:55:25 <Ysjoelfir> especially since my amp doesn't have a remote control
04:55:55 <Kuschelpony> but i can even enjoy music where this kind of coarse dynamic has been slowly compressed
04:56:16 <coppice> Ysjoelfir: movies in 5.1 or more definitely require a detached house
04:56:18 <Kuschelpony> for me the thing is the fine dynamic that gets killed by limiters
04:58:53 <coppice> with most music sold in the form of downloads, you should be able to download the "small flat with whiny neighbours" edition up to the "detached house on a very large plot" edition
04:59:47 <Kuschelpony> hihi
05:00:18 <Kuschelpony> the problem is probably that the producers or in worst case even the artists say THAT is the sound that we want to make
05:01:03 <Kuschelpony> some years ago i tried to give many independ single artits and mini bands feedback, some were happy to hear if i enjoyed their "raw" sound
05:01:28 <Kuschelpony> in one case, the sound was only good because they were clueless how to "master" it in the modern way :)
05:01:55 <Kuschelpony> but also many said they just want that "radio sound"
05:02:16 <steve30> Even Stereo seems to be going out of fashion nowadays.
05:02:21 <coppice> in an age when few people listen to the radio
05:28:56 <Kuschelpony> hmmm, i think i have found a very good example of the bad... Uria Heep with "Lady in black"
05:29:33 <Kuschelpony> you see on the scope how the peaks are cut, even after MP3, and you of course hear it
06:22:50 <rust_collector> mornings, again
06:23:14 <rust_collector> meh, if you notice the neighbors complaining, it is not really loud
06:28:21 * steve30 watches techmoan's app-controlled curtains
06:28:33 <coppice> rust_collector: if only the neighbours responded to our remote control
06:28:58 Join: hsn ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
06:29:19 <rust_collector> you should get remote controlled curtains, maybe they would get your hint
06:29:20 <hsn> 🫂
06:29:23 <coppice> steve30: I don't want the curtains to be stuck open if the internet is down
06:29:40 <hsn> Get what
06:29:46 <rust_collector> hint
06:29:58 <steve30> I think by the time i'd faffed around with a smart phone or similar, I could have just opened or closed them myself
06:30:08 <rust_collector> HeY sAnDmAn
06:30:18 <hsn> Hi rust man
06:30:40 <rust_collector> are you ready for bed?
06:30:41 <hsn> What is going with ur life
06:30:49 <hsn> Im ready for shower
06:30:51 * steve30 is

06:31:00 <rust_collector> oooh
06:31:34 <hsn> How is Ysjoelfirs
06:31:44 <rust_collector> my life... well, I have been pushing snow off 2 caravans.
06:31:56 <hsn> Snow is good
06:32:02 <hsn> Make snow man
06:32:04 <hsn> For me
06:32:14 <steve30> our snow has melted now
06:32:20 <hsn> And his nose
06:32:31 <hsn> And eat his nose
06:32:33 <coppice> steve30: it really warmed up last night
06:32:44 <rust_collector> you can buy snowman noses in the store here
06:32:54 <hsn> My seeds are getting melt
06:33:13 <rust_collector> i did warm up a bit here also, yesterday
06:33:31 <hsn> Witted .. feeble .. weak
06:33:36 <hsn> Idk the correct word
06:34:12 <rust_collector> did you give them the stuff they want?
06:34:18 <hsn> https://photos.app.goo.gl/VpQ8qfpzLachgmRh6
06:34:44 <hsn> Sun and water
06:35:26 <hsn> And my love .. Nothing more i can provide to the basterds ..
06:38:07 <rust_collector> not that I know what your weeds like, some like more water, some like less, some tends to do better if you give them... special weed-vitamins.
06:38:51 <rust_collector> some want shade, some like sunny-sun
06:38:52 <hsn> Yeah .. i ve no idea but i think they need more space
06:39:19 <rust_collector> maybe
06:39:28 <hsn> rust_collector: if they not gonna live the winter
06:39:38 <hsn> The life here isnt made for them
06:39:53 <hsn> They better die .. life is harsh
06:40:30 <rust_collector> yeah. that is why I never buy flowers for the wife. I just end up feeling sorry for the damn things
06:40:38 <hsn> No spoiled kids .. https://images.app.goo.gl/xs32rrxKBJx65Ug88
06:43:26 <rust_collector> 0.0000017% of the internet is about gardening in various versions. go figure out what your olants want
06:47:21 <Ysjoelfir> nice hsn :) the plants I mean
06:48:01 <rust_collector> maybe you should go to the local bar, and steal those little umbrellas...
06:50:05 <rust_collector> think of how happy your little weeds would be, if you gave them small colourful umbrellas
06:50:49 <hsn> Hey Ysjoelfir
06:51:16 <hsn> Some of these kids i would hit if i were their parent https://youtu.be/7BdVVeLLdAI
06:51:49 <hsn> Ysjoelfir: how is ur dad to be life going
06:51:50 <rust_collector> some of them I would hit, even if I am not their parent
06:51:59 <hsn> rust_collector: +1
06:52:47 <hsn> I remember there was cuzn kid that though i wouldnt hit him bcz he is young and he thinks he can just mis behave with others
06:52:57 <hsn> Thought
06:53:12 <hsn> He got the surprise response
06:54:06 <rust_collector> his grandpa slapped him and cut of both of his arms?
06:54:19 <rust_collector> I bet he did not expect that
06:54:31 <hsn> Nah .. i slapt him
06:54:43 <rust_collector> prfffft... ok
06:55:15 <hsn> Arms are in their place though
06:55:34 <rust_collector> maybe you should just twist them off some day
06:56:13 <hsn> 90degree?
06:56:20 <hsn> 360?
06:56:53 <rust_collector> no degrees needed, twist them until they fall off
06:57:58 <rust_collector> Ok, I know you are engineer-ish, so I will give you a number. twist them 800 degrees
07:01:59 <hsn> Nah u r just aggressive
07:04:17 <T3sl4> BUH!
07:05:21 <rust_collector> me aggressive? nah. But I think even violence is worth doing properly, if it is deserved
07:07:17 <coppice> What is the right place for an arm? Next to a wireless modem?
07:07:18 <electrohead> "violence beats violence"
07:08:05 <rust_collector> Ysjoelfir, I got pancakes too!
07:09:23 <T3sl4> come to the dark-syrup side
07:09:34 Quit: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) Connection closed
07:12:22 <rust_collector> if you leave the arms out in the sun to dry, you can do some neat things with resin, and make nice cup holders
07:13:03 <coppice> the sun dries things slowly. use an oven and have an arms race
07:13:18 <hsn> Ah i just love hot showers
07:13:57 <T3sl4> from one of those electric showerheads i trust
07:14:43 <hsn> I dont know what u mean but i smell that U trust wrong
07:14:49 <rust_collector> I guess he could just have a coil of pipe on the roof
07:14:53 <coppice> T3sl4: nah, I think he means the golden kind
07:15:08 <rust_collector> yes, that is pretty hot
07:15:10 <T3sl4> rust_collector, i certainly do
07:15:36 <rust_collector> nice
07:16:02 <hsn> Nah we got somthing like 50l heater
07:16:18 <hsn> Somwhere in building
07:16:20 <rust_collector> hmm
07:16:34 <hsn> Which has maybe 60-70c water
07:17:17 <hsn> And it flows to shower by head pressure/ gravity .. whatever it is
07:17:51 <rust_collector> we replaced ours a few years ago. the new one is very quick, but it is also quite a bit smaller.
07:18:19 <hsn> I usually stick my head under it for long time
07:18:24 <hsn> Until u get daisy
07:18:34 <hsn> And the bathroom becomes foggy
07:18:44 <hsn> Ah .. porn
07:19:00 <rust_collector> I think the new one is 250l. old one was 400. i miss the old one, even if it took a long time to heat up
07:19:07 <hsn> The vibration it gives to your neck
07:19:23 <hsn> Its like im cheating my wife with hot water
07:20:02 <T3sl4> if you have one of those pulsating showerhead wands, she might be cheating on you too
07:20:29 <hsn> And every 5 mins .. u just tickle the mixer so it becomes just little bit hotter
07:21:40 <hsn> Erm
07:22:09 <hsn> T3sl4: https://images.app.goo.gl/euNvpKdfmtP5ptP58
07:22:12 <hsn> This?
07:22:30 <T3sl4> sorta
07:23:27 <hsn> Does ladies masterbute with what u just said?
07:23:31 <rust_collector> http://johnnyvagabond.com/travel-tips/survive-suicide-shower/
07:24:16 <T3sl4> the pulsating kind, sure
07:25:11 <hsn> T3sl4: it looks like mens masterbute on it also
07:25:15 <hsn> https://images.app.goo.gl/3sqFbKWHH4r1bpth6
07:25:18 <T3sl4> get one and try it
07:25:39 <T3sl4> that looks like a scene they would've used in star trek
07:26:07 <T3sl4> like on a vacation/resort planet

08:09:40 <MRiddickW> Benchtop power supplies. I'm working on a project where I need around 100 VDC, 0.5 A. Would you be looking for a single output that can supply that, or a multi-output supply that you just daisy chain together to get that voltage?
08:12:25 * T3sl4 crackles electrically at MRiddickW
08:12:45 * MRiddickW touches T3sl4 and gets an afro
08:12:49 <T3sl4> :D
08:12:58 <T3sl4> i mean, in a pinch, i'd just put a big fat cap on a bridge rect on a variac and that's that
08:13:12 <rust_collector> i would have one dual and 2 singles
08:13:21 <T3sl4> give me a double double
08:13:42 <MRiddickW> T3sl4: Not sure I'm that desperate yet. :p
08:13:48 <rust_collector> then I would forget what I was doing and look at boobies on the internet
08:15:21 <MRiddickW> I have a 40V supply and a 60V supply that I was running in series, but the output of the 40V died last night. So now I'm toying with buying a new supply so I can just keep working on this project and repair the 40V on my own time.
08:15:24 <T3sl4> i love looking at boobys on the internet! https://i.imgur.com/s1l9zAD.jpg
08:15:42 <T3sl4> series stacking is good, yes
08:19:08 <rust_collector> heh, I was looking at power supplies today, on mouser, I think it was. a lot of the bk, and keithley ones had some restrictions, and was not officially sold here. I thought that was a bit weird
08:19:19 <T3sl4> huh
08:19:39 <rust_collector> I mean... a power supply...
08:19:45 <MRiddickW> T3sl4: You took the words right out of my mouth
08:19:47 <rust_collector> sounds weird to me
08:20:25 * T3sl4 looks at the slobbery words, puts them back in MRiddickW's mouth where they belong
08:20:34 <MRiddickW> Eww
08:20:36 <rust_collector> i could buy all kinds of hp and lecroy and other ones...
08:21:23 <T3sl4> most likely explanation, some sort of sales policy, or prohibition even
08:21:43 <MRiddickW> ITAR?
08:21:47 <MRiddickW> When in doubt, ITAR.
08:22:03 <rust_collector> yes. but I still think that power supplies would be a bit... eeh. whyyyyyyy?
08:23:12 <T3sl4> not ITAR, something more mundane than that
08:25:34 <rust_collector> meh, it only says they do not sell this product in your area.
08:25:56 <rust_collector> which is fine. I would have to sell the neighbors car to buy one anyway
08:25:57 <T3sl4> i mean like there might've been a court order barring them doing business somewhere
08:26:29 <T3sl4> sometimes trademark law does that

10:50:42 <MRiddickW> I replaced the fuse in my power supply.
10:50:48 <MRiddickW> And now my 40V supply is outputting 70V.
10:51:46 <T3sl4> w00t!
10:53:13 <electrohead> \o/
10:55:16 <MRiddickW> I was just kind of staring at the voltage readout thinking "well obviously it still doesn't work since turning the dial isn't affecting the output."
10:55:24 <MRiddickW> And then something started smoking
10:55:41 <T3sl4> https://i.imgur.com/6NfmQ.jpg
10:55:41 <MRiddickW> Hooked up my multimeter to it and yes, it is indeed outputting 70 V.
10:58:48 * Halcyon prods electrohead
10:59:20 * electrohead gets prodded
10:59:23 <T3sl4> MRiddickW: guessing it's a linear supply design, and the pass transistor is borked, and probably some other stuff attached to it hence the smoking
10:59:38 <T3sl4> easy enough to go through and find all the burnt bits, replace them and have it probably work
10:59:39 <electrohead> Yo I'm still pissed that damn full size rack sold >.<
10:59:44 <Halcyon> :(
10:59:45 <electrohead> that was a damn good price
10:59:47 <electrohead> heh
11:00:01 <Halcyon> There will be others
11:00:15 <electrohead> and to be honest, I'm not sure if I could track down one locally that's being thrown out or etc
11:01:07 <electrohead> but, I shall keep looking!
11:01:21 <Halcyon> What else is happening?
11:01:23 <MRiddickW> T3sl4: I'll give that a try, thanks for the tip on where to look!
11:02:04 <electrohead> MRiddickW: ouch, magic smoke
11:02:21 <electrohead> Halcyon: nothing too much, just got home from work not long ago

15:15:05 <Halcyon> I found an LS-120 drive
15:15:14 <Halcyon> I don't have any disks to test in it though
15:15:23 <steve30> cool
15:18:05 <steve30> I should try and get out for my shopping this morning
15:20:18 <Halcyon> What are you buying?
15:20:36 <steve30> coffee and food

15:38:04 <Halcyon> YAY
15:38:07 <Halcyon> Herro Ampera
15:46:09 * steve30 meows at Halcyon
15:48:06 * Halcyon puts the cat outside
15:48:20 <steve30> *hiss*
15:48:23 <steve30> outside is cold
15:48:33 <Halcyon> :P
15:48:39 * Ampera rehugs Halcyon
15:48:42 <Halcyon> It's about 25-26 degrees inside today
15:48:47 <Ampera> how are you doing Halcyon
15:48:49 <Halcyon> Almost time for air conditioning
15:48:53 <Halcyon> I'm doing OK, how about you?
15:49:15 <Ampera> terrible
15:49:16 <steve30> I put the AC on earlier to warm me up. I'm impressed how hot the AC gets in winter.
15:49:24 <Halcyon> Why terrible?
15:49:36 <Ampera> insomnia, shouldn't be up for another two hours
15:49:44 <Halcyon> :(
15:49:45 <Ampera> oh well
15:57:49 <Halcyon> *sigh* I don't want to go to work tomorrow
15:59:00 <steve30> Come and snuggle up with me instead then :)

16:11:11 <MrMobodies> Hello
16:11:41 <T3sl4> Halcyon, sushi duh
16:11:51 <Halcyon> Looks like cat food
16:11:52 <MrMobodies> I moved my shelf in the cabinet and the network cable fell out
16:12:01 <MrMobodies> only noticed it now
16:15:16 <MrMobodies> despite the lockdown death rates seem to be the same as they were last year at the beginning
16:15:28 <MrMobodies> in the uk I mean
16:15:28 <MrMobodies> https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/deaths
16:17:53 <steve30> that's good to know
16:23:53 <MrMobodies> Can sleeping in my chair cause back and shoulder pain?
16:24:05 <MrMobodies> I am having that right now in my left shoulder
16:24:08 <steve30> probably
16:24:48 <MrMobodies> well I got my experimet up and running with that KVM switch through the firewall
16:25:24 <MrMobodies> https://imgur.com/a/PzJ8Wnh
16:25:53 <MrMobodies> I am trying to make it so I can share a KVM with 2 people
16:26:00 <MrMobodies> plus the console
16:26:47 <MrMobodies> I ordered another fan for that G6 as it was getting noiser and noiser
16:27:15 <MrMobodies> the lowest fan levels were defaulting but seems alright now
16:27:45 <MrMobodies> it had 3 fans instead of four as it only had one 1 cpu populated
16:27:59 <MrMobodies> I got a large cache memory with a battery (well it is a capacitor one)
16:28:44 <MrMobodies> I have this quad port network card called a Fanuc by GE, and it has a Cavium in it
16:29:14 <MrMobodies> https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/cavium/octeon_plus/cn5750-600bg1217-sp
16:29:54 <MrMobodies> and I found a Freebsd drive that I am going to see if it works
16:30:15 <MrMobodies> https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux/+/4333a9b0b67bb4e8bcd91bdd80da80b0ec151162/drivers/net/ethernet/cavium

16:32:28 <MrMobodies> and it looks exciting. I read somehwere it was used for packet capturing
17:00:13 * Ampera sneezes at Halcyon
17:11:15 <Halcyon> I was just about to type the same thing :P
17:11:20 <Halcyon> Get out of my head Ampera
17:16:12 <Ampera> how are you doing Halcyon
17:16:29 <steve30> now i think i'd rather go to bed than go to the shop
17:16:44 * Ampera tucks steve30 in for a nice morning nap
17:17:04 <steve30> mmm
17:20:33 * Ampera thinks Halcyon needs IRC for his phone, so he doesn't come in here on and off so much :P

21:24:28 <Ysjoelfir> indeed. though I would like it a bit less burning I think.

21:33:08 Join: DogWomble ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
21:34:01 <rust_collector> Ysjoelfir, did you get any of those reamers?
21:36:06 <K> Ysjoelfir is gonna ream somebody a new one?
21:36:15 <Ysjoelfir> yes!
21:36:32 <K> all nice and round
22:11:54 <Ysjoelfir> https://www.digikey.de/products/en?keywords=828-1091-1-ND Hm. "Due to temporary constrained supply, Digi-Key is unable to accept backorders at this time." Do they produce that thing in britain?
22:13:38 <Ysjoelfir> Also, Bosch, friends, you are just a bunch of idiots ._. I wrote to them requesting when they will be available again, since digikey, mouser and arrow all told me "I dunno. We can't get that atm. Ask Bosch." answer from Bosch: "Please ask our authorized distributors for delivery times." -.-
22:14:33 <rust_collector> expected 6/3, says mr mouser
22:14:52 <rust_collector> not that that means anything
22:15:12 <Ysjoelfir> do they now? at least something. when I wrote the mail like 2 weeks ago there was no information at all
22:15:49 <rust_collector> just looking on the site. i guess they might say "no idea" if I asked them properly
22:16:55 <Ysjoelfir> probably^^
22:17:18 <rust_collector> they have almost 15000 orders, it says. so maybe bosch will make a few some day
22:18:02 <Ysjoelfir> I hope so. mr. customer is not pleased
22:18:42 <rust_collector> hmm, i wonder if this company down the road uses something similar. they did design the first reasonably priced crash sensor for airbags, that was not complete crap.
22:19:14 <Ysjoelfir> that could well be the case.
22:19:24 <rust_collector> well, tell mr customer to order 250000 of them, and I guess they would make some for him
22:19:42 <Ysjoelfir> probably :D
22:21:23 <rust_collector> i am still a little bit annoyed that I can not order keithley things here. not that I would, but...
22:21:53 <Ysjoelfir> why can'Ät you order that? Oo
22:24:07 <rust_collector> well, at least not thru mouser. they do not sell that in my location
22:24:32 <rust_collector> keithley and.. was it bk? i don't remember
22:27:12 <rust_collector> I guess some other company has this area maybe
22:31:49 <Ysjoelfir> hm. strange
22:32:22 <rust_collector> ah ffffffff....
22:32:54 <rust_collector> cat just jumped off the table, and grabbed my foot
22:32:58 <rust_collector> wth?
22:33:20 <rust_collector> she is old and weird, but usually does not do...anything.
22:35:00 <Ysjoelfir> lol^^ isn't that what cats are supposed to do? hunt feet?
22:35:43 <rust_collector> I thought they were made to push things off the edge of the world?
22:41:10 <Ysjoelfir> yes, that as well. and of edges of tables.

23:57:30 <rust_collector> you can seal it, so it does not go anywhere, and it is ok
