00:01:13 <rust_collector> yeah, it flies away if you let it out, lol
00:17:57 <rust_collector> like coffee
00:20:53 <Ysjoelfir> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYBv6KXSfGI What a cute toy. I like that :D Would be another neat but useless addition for my cluttered desk
00:22:31 <rust_collector> that guy does have a thing for making even the most useless and boring things look interesting
00:22:42 <Ysjoelfir> indeed
00:26:54 <rust_collector> i never thought about having music on a floppy
00:27:10 <Ysjoelfir> no?
00:27:22 <Ysjoelfir> I had some midi music on floppy back than
00:27:42 <rust_collector> I guess I did not computer things back then
00:28:42 <rust_collector> I did not computer things between 1990 and 2005 or so
00:31:21 <Ysjoelfir> I did that not between..... 1990 and 2000 I guess. which is probably because I got access to a PC the first time with ~10
00:33:48 <rust_collector> i do have a new in box usb floppy drive...
00:34:48 <rust_collector> I am not sure if I have any floppys, I had a few boxes, but maybe they disappeared in one of the cleaning up raids
00:34:56 <Ysjoelfir> nice :D I don't have any drives left I thin :( but I have floppys.
00:35:26 <rust_collector> I wonder if Ampera likes sam and dave, lol
00:35:40 <Ysjoelfir> I dunno?
00:35:49 <rust_collector> I think he does
00:35:55 <Ampera> who?
00:36:00 <Ampera> no clue who that is

01:52:01 <rust_collector> ooofff

01:55:23 <Ysjoelfir> Wanna join in adding stock to my store? Thats probably exciting as fuck!
01:55:43 <rust_collector> WOOO!
01:55:48 <rust_collector> nope
01:56:21 <rust_collector> i would consider removing stock from me heads store
01:59:12 <electrohead> lol
01:59:14 <T3sl4> i thought this was the house of pain
01:59:44 <rust_collector> well, people party in different ways. one does not exclude the other
01:59:51 * T3sl4 brandishes a stale baguette
02:01:07 <rust_collector> Ysjoelfir, i think you have to get that store done soon, because... well, I am bored, I already looked at all of ebay

03:44:58 <Ysjoelfir> You should try FTL, rusty, its fun :)
03:45:02 <Ysjoelfir> mornings Squeaky
03:45:18 <rust_collector> fatter than lard?
03:45:30 <rust_collector> hi miss... mrs squeak
03:45:34 * ThunderSqueak hugs T3sl4
03:45:39 * T3sl4 glomps ThunderSqueak
03:45:48 <ThunderSqueak> rust_collector, I am married but there is no Mr in my life
03:45:49 <EEVBlog> 42, ThunderSqueak!
03:46:01 <rust_collector> so?
03:46:07 * Ysjoelfir is standing with open arms, waiting for his hug
03:46:13 <ThunderSqueak> the Mrs always reminds me of Mr
03:46:13 <ThunderSqueak> :P
03:46:18 <K> Mss ?
03:46:28 <ThunderSqueak> how about just ThunderSqueak :P
03:46:34 <K> no! not allowed!
03:46:39 <ThunderSqueak> yes
03:46:48 <T3sl4> you're a married woman! it would be improper!
03:47:06 <ThunderSqueak> I have an Dr of Divinity from the ULC, could be Dr ThunderSqueak :P
03:47:08 <rust_collector> I thought mrs was just married woman. I did not know it had anything to do with anything else
03:47:27 <T3sl4> oh indeed, it should be Dr
03:47:35 <K> does it hurt?
03:47:36 <ThunderSqueak> rust_collector, it implies I am owned by a man
03:47:49 <rust_collector> ok, well, sorry then
03:48:00 <rust_collector> dr squeak
03:49:25 <ThunderSqueak> you too can be a Dr :P https://www.ulc.org/minister-store/doctor-of-divinity-degree
03:49:26 <T3sl4> Mrs. Joe Squeak would certainly have that implication. Not sure about Mrs in general. I know the etymology of that ms/mr/mrs/... bs is overly complicated, as if to try and impress people with superlative titles
03:49:29 <ThunderSqueak> those used to be free :P
03:49:53 <rust_collector> i should invent a title I can use
03:50:05 <ThunderSqueak> the grand Yoda is taken
03:50:06 <ThunderSqueak> <.<
03:50:17 <rust_collector> aww
03:51:35 * Ysjoelfir is slowly rotting away while waiting for his hug
03:51:36 <ThunderSqueak> my job, after laying me off on the 30th, has me starting today and working another month, since I dont have a job yet, I accepted
03:51:50 * rust_collector hugs Ysjoelfir
03:51:51 * ThunderSqueak is eating.
03:51:55 <Ysjoelfir> \o/
03:52:11 <T3sl4> i just had scrambled eggs with green pepper and onion on toast
03:52:16 <T3sl4> and a tea
03:52:21 * ThunderSqueak offers Ysjoelfir some breakfast. homemade bread, and eggs with the yolks runny
03:52:24 <ThunderSqueak> over easy
03:52:41 <Ysjoelfir> yes please, two of that
03:52:43 <ThunderSqueak> well toast, I toasted the homemade bread
03:52:46 <T3sl4> nice
03:53:19 <electrohead> I'm thinking about getting another cat
03:53:21 <electrohead> :D
03:53:25 <ThunderSqueak> I try to bake 4 loaves of bread on weekends
03:56:36 <Ysjoelfir> Buy ALL the cats! And bake bread while doing that. :D Don't forget to share!
03:56:42 <rust_collector> electrohead, i am down to one cat. do you want it?
03:58:10 <T3sl4> just don't bake the cats
03:58:22 <rust_collector> well....
03:58:26 <Ysjoelfir> that could be tasty.

03:59:05 * ThunderSqueak has eaten cat before <.<
03:59:26 * ThunderSqueak has also eaten dog before... just been around the world a bit... *shrug*
03:59:52 <rust_collector> fried paws... yum yum
03:59:56 <Ysjoelfir> how does that taste? and now don't tell me "like chicken" :D
04:00:14 <ThunderSqueak> Ysjoelfir, dog is better, more fat
04:01:01 <T3sl4> interesting
04:02:06 <rust_collector> dog is like cheap chicken?
04:03:16 <rust_collector> more fat than meat. but it is cheap
04:03:23 <rust_collector> is dog cheap?

04:22:46 <rust_collector> pizza is almost done
04:22:58 <rust_collector> no pets
04:28:54 <Ysjoelfir> uh, I want some, too.
04:29:37 <T3sl4> Ysjoelfir will trade pets for foods
04:29:40 <rust_collector> ok, I will put it in a box. you can have it when you feel like it
04:30:28 <rust_collector> it is full of mushrooms, so it will only get better with time
04:31:23 <Ysjoelfir> lol^^
04:41:53 <Ysjoelfir> I think I'll have a 4 cheese pizza. we have one in the freezer IIRC
04:43:24 <rust_collector> i think you should have 2
04:51:20 <Ysjoelfir> would that make it an 8 cheese pizza?
04:51:52 <rust_collector> unless someone scammed you?
04:53:26 <coppice> do they clearly define what the 4 cheeses are?
04:54:23 <Ysjoelfir> yes
04:54:29 <rust_collector> he is in the eu, so I guess they are cheese
04:55:18 <coppice> you know, it could just be mozzarella from 4 different suppliers
04:55:39 <Ysjoelfir> its mozzarella, cheddar, gorgonzola and emmentaler^^
05:26:41 <T3sl4> hm, not a combination i'd have expected, but not unwelcome
05:34:01 <Ysjoelfir> its nice. could do with some ham and pineapple though
05:34:38 <rust_collector> peanuts
05:37:22 * T3sl4 kung paos rust_collector's chicken
05:37:55 <T3sl4> mmm, there aren't too many dishes that use peanuts in some form, but the ones that do are nice
05:38:26 <rust_collector> I like peanuts on pizza, when they are baked/fried in cheese fat
05:39:41 <T3sl4> hmm, they don't get too hard that way?
05:40:51 <rust_collector> no, they go soft

05:42:32 <Lord_of_nothing> HEy
05:42:58 <Lord_of_nothing> Our Gov drive insane
05:43:31 <T3sl4> hmmm
05:43:41 <rust_collector> hey! well, what would you expect?
05:43:43 <Ysjoelfir> you mean because they finally think about a hard-ish lockdown instead of the fourth mini lockdown that does absolutely nothing?
05:43:56 * T3sl4 lockdown bombs Ysjoelfir's crew
05:44:04 <Ysjoelfir> :O
05:44:06 <Lord_of_nothing> there is no reasion to wear a mask
05:44:11 <Lord_of_nothing> since the do nothing
05:44:35 <T3sl4> they do nothing when you idiots leave your noses hang out
05:45:00 <rust_collector> right, they should do it like the chinese, and nail your doors shut. at least that works
05:45:01 <Ysjoelfir> ^
05:45:08 <Ysjoelfir> ^
05:45:09 <T3sl4> Ysjoelfir: i had a nice run the other day, with the crystal ship. the lockdown ability is op
05:45:14 <Lord_of_nothing> https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQWqzh6Wcc_2mkBJ5sy3SqA
05:45:28 <Ysjoelfir> I haven't unlocked that one yet :(
05:46:13 <T3sl4> could use the rock C too
05:46:36 <Ysjoelfir> I think I have that one
05:47:00 <T3sl4> pretty easy unlocking crystal with that, you dont have to find a crystal crew, just the warp event
05:47:08 <Lord_of_nothing> all my doctor refuse to give me an paper who say that i could not wear a ffp3 mask
05:47:24 <T3sl4> i also like to use hacking for its door locking ability, or on ships with a med bay, when the crew tries to run away and heal, i let them in, then crank it up and microwave them alive. mwahaha
05:47:51 <Ysjoelfir> thats probably a good thing to do. in which way are you disabled so that you can't wear it?
05:47:54 <Ysjoelfir> lol T3sl4^^
05:49:24 <Lord_of_nothing> i am way overweight and that limit my breath
05:49:33 <Lord_of_nothing> so its hard to breath in for me
05:50:07 <Lord_of_nothing> my o2 (?!) level is way to low even with out
05:50:12 <Ysjoelfir> I am that as well. Still do it. since you only have to wear it in shops its fine. you should distance yourself anyways
05:50:26 <Lord_of_nothing> i must wear it in public transport to
05:50:34 <Lord_of_nothing> and maybe on the street to soon
05:50:54 <Ysjoelfir> Just get a real gas mask. easyer to breathe in and actually protects you.
05:51:04 <T3sl4> maybe you should walk or take a bike then
05:51:13 <Lord_of_nothing> lol there is nothing who i need to be protected from
05:51:15 <T3sl4> solves two problems at once
05:51:22 <Ysjoelfir> that would solve two problems at once ;P
05:51:29 * T3sl4 high fives Ysjoelfir
05:51:32 <rust_collector> buy a bus
05:51:38 <Lord_of_nothing> the mask should not protect my the should protect the other
05:51:43 * Ysjoelfir joins the ^5ing
05:53:05 <Ysjoelfir> thats true. at least anything <FFP3 only slightly protects the others, but not you. so.. if you have a problem with that, get a GP5 with a P3 particle filter. easy to wear and easy to breathe.
05:53:40 <Lord_of_nothing> i have problem even with a cloth mask
05:53:50 <T3sl4> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCn03u_Jvuo
05:54:13 <rust_collector> you can get cheap sarin on aliexpress. then you will get free proper gas masks
05:55:59 <Lord_of_nothing> omg last time the us got it from monsanto + bayer
05:59:16 <rust_collector> uhm, well, that makes sense, no?
06:23:31 <electrohead> rust_collector: I'd love to take your cat, but it would have to go on an international plane ride, first :p
06:23:46 <rust_collector> monsanto monsanto monsanto the fire that doesn't buuuurn
06:24:07 <Ysjoelfir> thats fine, I'm sure rusty can pack it well
06:24:16 <rust_collector> yeah, I have a box
06:24:29 <rust_collector> and styrofoam peanuts
06:24:36 <rust_collector> all safe
06:25:23 <rust_collector> no, wait... it was agent orange... still monsanto tho
06:29:58 <hsn> Styro-whaaaat?
06:30:31 <rust_collector> the stuff you mix with gasoline, to put annoying children on fire

07:11:49 <rust_collector> yeh, but at least it is slow
07:11:55 <rust_collector> it is monday
07:28:09 <rust_collector> I think I need a box and some confuser fans
07:28:47 <rust_collector> it is a bit weird, but I have more fans than boxes
07:28:59 <Ysjoelfir> why?^^
07:29:10 <rust_collector> I am hungry?
07:29:48 <rust_collector> or, i am guessing I will be hungry in a few days, also
07:31:33 <rust_collector> meh. i don't have any meat anyway. I can forget this until...the next time
07:31:54 <Ysjoelfir> XD
07:34:02 <rust_collector> looking at the internet, those dehydrator things can be pretty cheap. maybe I will use the fans as filler material in a box or something
07:37:04 <rust_collector> or maybe mr electrohead can smuggle some regular jerky... I bet he knows some place that has it
07:37:18 <electrohead> yeah, over in australia
07:37:20 <Ysjoelfir> get me some as well
07:37:30 <electrohead> lol
07:38:00 <electrohead> seriously, I got sent some reaper pepper jerkey, and it was amazing <3
07:38:21 * electrohead offers a twisted monkey
07:38:27 <electrohead> err, a beer, rather
07:38:47 <Ysjoelfir> yes please, I take that as well
07:39:05 <rust_collector> we're not gonna take it
07:39:12 <rust_collector> oh, no, that was something else
07:39:29 <rust_collector> monkeysister
07:40:01 <rust_collector> well, ok, put some beer in the package as well
07:40:23 * T3sl4 unfreezes a pizza as well
07:42:38 <electrohead> https://victorybeer.com/beers/twisted-monkey/
07:43:16 <rust_collector> oh, I can not see that page
07:43:21 <rust_collector> weird popup thing
07:43:30 * T3sl4 hugs electrohead
07:44:38 <electrohead> I have javascript disabled, so not sure what you're seeing
07:44:42 * electrohead hugs T3sl4
07:44:46 <electrohead> hey man
07:44:46 <rust_collector> hmm, do you have brass monkey?
07:44:53 <electrohead> nah, lol
07:45:22 <rust_collector> I think that is a plan for next weekend
07:45:55 <T3sl4> that monkey monkey
07:51:05 <electrohead> the golden monkey is pretty wicked
07:51:10 <electrohead> three of those, and you're toast
07:51:13 <electrohead> lol
07:52:05 <rust_collector> mmmmmmmmdidtheyputdrugsinthat?
07:52:29 <rust_collector> wth? banana and clove?
07:52:53 <electrohead> golden monkey is 9.5% alcohol
07:52:56 <electrohead> xD
07:53:05 <rust_collector> eeh...well.
07:53:06 <rust_collector> uhm
07:53:34 <rust_collector> not bad for a beer, I guess
07:58:56 <rust_collector> https://www.vinmonopolet.no/Land/Norge/Berentsens-Stelliger-Divum-Jule%C3%B8l/p/1830302
08:00:46 <rust_collector> nah, that is a bit weird. but I remember we used to get warsteiner on the ferry, that was 11.something. that was pretty nice, even for me, who is not a beer guy
08:02:07 * Ysjoelfir hands rust_collector some Absinth
08:02:43 * rust_collector woohoos, and thinks mondays can be ok after all
08:02:49 <Ysjoelfir> lol
08:02:56 <electrohead> absinthe? damn, I remember bringing some of that back from overseas, heh
08:03:19 <electrohead> that's some wicked shit, that's for sure
08:03:57 <electrohead> one of the guys I was there with, almost lit the day room on fire, lmao... because "let's see if it's flammable"
08:04:13 <Ysjoelfir> it is.
08:04:16 <rust_collector> I think it depends... mostly on which day it is. for me, it is like tequila. some times it does "nothing" some times I don't remember at all
08:04:21 <Ysjoelfir> Sambuca is also nice :D
08:12:40 <rust_collector> I never remember what that is
08:12:56 <rust_collector> I do look it up, every time someone mentions it
08:13:10 <rust_collector> that does not help
08:18:32 <rust_collector> I remember I had a bottle of ouzo, that I had for years. that was horrible. I finally managed to force some guys from up north to drink that
08:18:50 <Ysjoelfir> Ouzo is simmilar to Sambuca. I like both
08:19:30 <rust_collector> I have had ouzo that was good. I just happened to have that one which was really awful
08:19:59 <rust_collector> it has a weird aftertaste of soap
08:25:18 <Ysjoelfir> ew :X
08:26:15 <rust_collector> hmm, I wonder what the cheapest thing I can buy is, lol
08:27:05 <rust_collector> 24 kr
08:27:07 <rust_collector> heh
08:27:26 <rust_collector> not cheap, but the lowest amount of money
08:27:56 <rust_collector> https://www.vinmonopolet.no/Land/Danmark/Tempt-Quick-%27N%27-Dirty-Granat%C3%A6ble/p/3882803
08:28:02 <rust_collector> 2cl...
08:28:28 <rust_collector> half a shot. that is impressive
08:28:46 <Ysjoelfir> lol^^ hey, ebtter than nothing

08:41:26 * Ampera has indomie special chicken noodles with fried bacony spam

09:18:43 <rust_collector> 5v 2a good times
09:20:43 <Ampera> modern USB-C is capable of delivering upwards of 100W with the right equipment
09:21:06 <Ampera> I believe one of the USB-C ports on my monitor does 90W power delivery, along with video and a USB hub down the same wire
09:21:13 <Ampera> don't have a machine that can make use of it, but oh well
09:22:56 <rust_collector> sure, but it is still a tiny little plug
09:23:11 <rust_collector> this one is just a little 65w
09:36:12 * steve30 makes cheesy pasta
09:36:21 * Ysjoelfir wants some, too
09:36:54 <Ysjoelfir> I feel like I already ate a ton of stuff, but I'm still hungry
09:37:28 * T3sl4 pats his tummy of pizza
09:37:29 <Ampera> my noodles were good
09:37:34 <Ampera> I think I am going to do a bed sleep thing now
09:37:36 <Ampera> good nights
09:37:51 * Ampera hugs Ysjoelfir, pets steve30, and gives rust_collector a rusty 2 stroke saab
09:37:54 <T3sl4> noods
09:38:06 <rust_collector> good night
09:38:28 <Ysjoelfir> enjoy Ampera
09:38:49 <Ysjoelfir> T3sl4, why do you pet my tummy?
09:39:05 <T3sl4> our tummy
09:39:21 <Ysjoelfir> oh, I didn't notice that this is a colaboration
09:40:05 <T3sl4> it's no abberation
09:40:56 <Ysjoelfir> xD
10:10:29 <rust_collector> ok, I give up. this stuff is too small for me
10:12:48 <Ysjoelfir> which stuff?
10:14:42 <rust_collector> a broken in half usb c plug thing
10:15:07 <Ysjoelfir> sounds small
10:15:51 <rust_collector> on a charger, it only uses 3 chunky wires, to a tiny pcb/adapter board to solder the connector to
10:17:31 <rust_collector> but.... yes, it has I think 5 pins in the middle, and they are just too small for me. and the tracks are pulled off, so I would have to put a little jumper to the power and the whatever signal pin. i managed the negative pretty well, lol
10:20:13 <Ysjoelfir> hehe^^ You might would think about getting a new one :D
10:20:23 <rust_collector> hmm, I wonder if a magsafe charger would work....
10:27:52 <DHess_US> That's what she said!
10:29:07 <T3sl4> oh no, DHess_US caught ligma!
10:37:30 <rust_collector> Ysjoelfir, https://www.finn.no/bap/forsale/ad.html?finnkode=204971620
10:38:59 <Ysjoelfir> sweet :D take it!
10:39:17 <rust_collector> that is the kind I would almost consider
10:40:16 <Ysjoelfir> you should get it :) it looks like a nice project
10:43:11 <T3sl4> hrm, seems i have lots of squirries in this project, and the only cure, is more cowbell
10:43:40 <T3sl4> or more specifically, the opposite of resonant things like cowbells, the use of ferrite beads
10:43:53 <rust_collector> ferrite cowbell
10:43:55 <rust_collector> ok
10:44:23 <rust_collector> black dress for sale, can be used backwards, lol
10:52:13 <rust_collector> that sounds like when I put my underwear inside out
10:53:20 <T3sl4> hmm, more termination on this one line also seems to help
10:55:41 * Ysjoelfir terminates T3sl4
10:56:28 * T3sl4 ceases reflection

11:05:28 <steve30> Just had a brief power cut
11:05:37 <T3sl4> cut it out
11:06:38 <steve30> Not sure what the fault was. Our RCD tripped. It usually does that when we have a power cut.
11:32:45 <rust_collector> maybe you should buy some power saving plugs
11:35:06 <steve30> good idea, then i can save the power for when the mains goes out
11:35:23 <rust_collector> yep
11:39:33 <steve30> Maybe I'll try and go on the bus for my shopping later this morning, since I didn't manage it yesterday.
11:42:41 <rust_collector> do you really need to?
11:43:00 <steve30> I need to go at some point this week, otherwise i'll run out of coffee
11:43:10 <rust_collector> wednesday is the best shopping day for coffee
11:44:15 <rust_collector> I guess it could be time to start a new thing... I hear there is a shortage of coffee. if you see coffee in the store, buy all you can
11:44:33 <rust_collector> it is more valuable than toilet paper was last spring
11:47:26 <rust_collector> oh, you posted a video with some (now) old people. that is nice
11:48:06 <steve30> They will be 10 years older than they were when the video was taken
11:48:09 <steve30> *20
11:48:27 <rust_collector> mmhmmm
11:48:38 <rust_collector> and they were around 30?
11:48:48 <steve30> Don't know, probably
11:48:58 <rust_collector> OLD people now
11:49:17 <rust_collector> maybe it is time for a reunion
11:50:15 <rust_collector> Ysjoelfir, did you get some stuff on your shelf yet?
11:53:27 <steve30> rust_collector, I can't help but wonder how many people still have that particular VHS tape in their collection.
11:56:25 <steve30> Its intriguing that Pop Medley 2001 off the same tape has accumulated over 100 views since I uploaded it in november
11:58:26 <rust_collector> I wonder if you maybe should try to put the city name in the title?
11:59:14 <rust_collector> hmm, I don't know. but I guess some people look for local things
12:00:08 <rust_collector> but if people still have vhs now, they will probably always have it
12:00:52 <steve30> Probably. My experience seems to be that people willingly dispose of their VCRs, but not the tapes.
12:01:03 <rust_collector> yep
12:01:35 <rust_collector> I am not sure if we still have the player, but I know we have a few tapes somewhere
12:02:01 <steve30> I have 3 VCRs. One needs repair due to having sat unused for years
12:02:32 <steve30> Protip: Don't put a valuable tape into an untested VCR.
12:03:03 <rust_collector> well, it probably needs a good cleaning, and maybe a belt? there is not much in there, is there? maybe the rubber rollers get sticky and weird?
12:03:25 <rust_collector> I don't really remember how they look inside, lol
12:03:34 <steve30> That particular one dates from the early 90s, and has a lot more in it than a newer one.

12:36:42 <MrMobodies> Hello
12:36:47 <MrMobodies> I have a VCR that still works
12:36:51 <steve30> morning
12:36:57 <MrMobodies> I picked it up at a bootsale 10 years ago.
12:37:11 <steve30> cool
12:37:12 <MrMobodies> It is a Panasonic very similar to one I had before a tape got stuck in there
12:37:15 <steve30> Mine were all bought new
12:37:20 <MrMobodies> I think it was the model up
12:37:22 <MrMobodies> oh that's nice
12:37:38 <MrMobodies> but there is a problem with it
12:37:47 <MrMobodies> and the one before had the same issue
12:37:57 <MrMobodies> the aerial out sticks out I think
12:38:04 <MrMobodies> and it is damaged
12:38:04 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: The BIG ugg boot, Huxley to scale. https://t.co/TBh8FhCjIB
12:38:08 <MrMobodies> it needs resoldering
12:38:13 <rust_collector> I remember I bought a new vcr, then figured out that my tv had nowhere to connect it...blah
12:38:37 <MrMobodies> well those ones, I had had a coax out
12:38:53 <MrMobodies> I think this one also had an RGB out I'd have to unpack it and check
12:39:25 <MrMobodies> I think it has 4 heads
12:39:28 <MrMobodies> Nicam stereo
12:39:30 <steve30> My good Sony VCR is sat under my desk
12:39:45 <steve30> And it needs its clock setting due to this morning's power cut.
12:39:46 <MrMobodies> what model is your sony
12:39:52 <MrMobodies> ah power cuts

12:56:01 <MrMobodies> The top worked until the tapes got scrunched up inside
12:56:13 <MrMobodies> and the one in the cabinet I got in 2009 for 50p down a bootsale
12:56:54 <MrMobodies> Shame I can't read the model number. I'll find it later.
12:57:26 <MrMobodies> but what I like they both had stereo RCA in and out with the coax.

13:16:05 <MrMobodies> ahh the advert skipping feature
13:16:07 <MrMobodies> that's nice
13:17:49 <MrMobodies> oh sorry
13:17:50 <MrMobodies> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_recorder_scheduling_code
13:18:31 <MrMobodies> I remembered the old one that broke had this remote, with a led at the end
13:18:40 <MrMobodies> and it came with these sheets of barcodes to scan
13:19:15 <MrMobodies> https://images.australialisted.com/nlarge/panasonic_nv-f65_stereo_hifi_vhs_vcr_19876725.jpg
13:19:33 <MrMobodies> and it had a tiny lcd under a flap in the middle
13:19:41 <steve30> cool
13:19:49 <steve30> What were the barcodes for?
13:20:05 <MrMobodies> I think they were for recording at certain times
13:20:18 <steve30> My Grandparents had an old panasonic where you would programme the times on an LCD on the remote, then it would transmit to the VCR. Didn't have barcodes though.
13:20:33 <MrMobodies> probably the same type
13:21:18 <MrMobodies> I'll have to ask my dad, I was only about 5 or 6 when he got it
13:21:18 <steve30> It was a similar type to that with the flipdown control panel on the front
13:21:31 <MrMobodies> with the play and recording stuff
13:21:34 <MrMobodies> and seeking too
13:21:40 <MrMobodies> it was good at that
13:21:49 <MrMobodies> seeking like frame by frame
13:21:49 <steve30> That particular one got thrown out in 2003 along with their old TV when they got a modern "IDTV"
13:22:09 <MrMobodies> that's a shame, they were reliable
13:22:23 <MrMobodies> that one started to scrunch up tapes in 2006
13:22:44 <MrMobodies> where the tape got stuck inside, I'd open it release, maybe i shouldn't have thrown it out
13:22:46 <steve30> This particular one broke. Don't know what was wrong with it. I didn't have the electronics expertise back then that I do now.
13:24:32 <MrMobodies> I'll find that one, I still have many things in bubble wrap in the house
13:26:11 <MrMobodies> I am experimenting with a HP KVM console and need some remote testers
13:26:27 <MrMobodies> I can get two remote users
13:26:31 <MrMobodies> anybody interested?
13:26:47 <MrMobodies> I have hooked up something already to it
13:27:32 <MrMobodies> It does need Java runtime 7 at least to run and the HP KVM from the website
13:27:41 <MrMobodies> but also has a built in webserver

14:00:34 <MrMobodies> I think in the Uk that is tailgating when they get so close
14:00:38 <rust_collector> meh, they have freedom to damage themselves.
14:01:54 <MrMobodies> I like that... freedom to damage themselves.
14:02:32 <rust_collector> I wonder why anyone cares, lol. at least they are not busy giving freedom and democracy to some other random country. let them do their thing over there
14:04:06 <MrMobodies> I find it a bit amusing when they are trying to bully a great big vehicle with their tiny cars.
14:05:42 <rust_collector> well, maybe the big vehicle guy is not a complete idiot. if you don't care too much about your car, you can easily stop a bus or truck.
