01:34:12 <arch> huh, so optocouplers don't tend to be good for high freqs? looks like the PC817 is only good to about 100kHz before dropping out the voltage gain like crazy

03:45:34 <Nothing\> hey yall
03:45:43 <Nothing\> i think i may have damaged my 1tb hard drive
03:45:51 <Kuschelpony> Hello Nothing
03:46:02 <Nothing\> heya Kuschelpony how's it going?
03:46:20 <Nothing\> i accidentally let a fairly strong magnet snap onto the case of the HDD
03:46:35 <Nothing\> i know they're well shielded magnetically, but these were pretty strong magnets
03:46:55 <Kuschelpony> just the usuasl silent late afternoon, having dinner and staring at an empty sheet of papoer and a buch of pens for the case i need them to cath an idea
03:47:06 <Nothing\> maybe about 1in by 1in cylinder of rare earth magnet, not sure of the grade
03:47:14 <Nothing\> i just know it's strong enough to lift 20-25lbs
03:47:31 <Kuschelpony> ouch, thats a size of magnet i would never let snap to something
03:47:31 <Nothing\> heh i know what you mean
03:47:47 <Nothing\> i have dozens of pens in discarded tim hortons cups all over my house
03:47:52 <Nothing\> and dozens more just sitting loose
03:47:57 <Kuschelpony> hihi
03:47:58 <Nothing\> or in the spines of notebooks
03:48:16 <Kuschelpony> my best ideas usually come in the early morning in the trains
03:48:33 <Nothing\> the shop i go to for the juice for my ecigs gives their pens away for free and always say take as many as you want cuz they have such a surplus of them
03:48:41 <Nothing\> so i always make a point of grabbing 5 or 6 every time i'm there
03:48:57 <Nothing\> Kuschelpony, or while you're half asleep in bed
03:49:08 * Ampera hugs Nothing\
03:49:14 <Nothing\> the problem with that is in order to record them, you have to rouse yourself out of that state
03:49:21 <Nothing\> heya buddy, how's it going?
03:49:27 * Nothing\ tackle hugs Ampera
03:49:34 <Ampera> Alright
03:49:39 <Nothing\> eww one of the cats had a poop
03:49:42 <Kuschelpony> mmh, thats less an moment of good ideas but more a time of where my social fears turn around in the head
03:49:46 <Ampera> my dad is complaining of network issues, so just trying to figure that out
03:49:56 <Nothing\> aww jeez i dunno what it is, but their poops smell worse than people poops
03:50:00 <Kuschelpony> i menat the time when half-sleeping
03:50:14 <Nothing\> my one cat doesn't even try to bury it, the other one has to bury them for him cuz she doesn't like the smell either
03:50:19 <Ampera> As for your hard drive, run a test for bad sectors
03:50:24 <Ampera> if you find none, you're probably fine
03:50:41 <Nothing\> Kuschelpony, ah yes, it is also a great time for introspection, so long as it doesn't upset you.
03:50:54 <Nothing\> Ampera, yeah i should do that at some point
03:51:00 <Nothing\> atm it's not connected to anything
03:51:28 <Kuschelpony> not exactly introspection, more like a consciuos nightmare
03:51:42 <Nothing\> before i couldn't find any way to actually mount it in my computer so i just sorta shoved it inside the drive bay, not a drive bay but the newer kind they have, if you know what i mean.
03:52:00 <Nothing\> and it wasn't completely horizontal, so i felt like that might affect its longevity
03:52:10 <Nothing\> but then laptop HDDs deal with that all the time
03:52:21 <Nothing\> so ultimately i dunno if it would be a problem or not
03:52:40 <Nothing\> Kuschelpony, and that's how insomnia happens, unfortunately
03:52:43 <Nothing\> :/
03:53:29 <Kuschelpony> yep
03:53:51 <Nothing\> when i was still a functioning member of society whenever i'd try to sleep i'd just think "okay i've only got X hours to go until I have to wake up so i need to get to sleep"
03:54:12 <Nothing\> and just stay up for 2 or 3 hours staring at my eyelids, worrying about how much time i had to sleep and how it was dwindling away
03:54:39 <Nothing\> i was only getting maybe 2-4 hours of sleep a night
03:54:45 <Nothing\> no meds seemed to help
03:54:59 <Nothing\> at least until i got on a very low dose of seroquel and that did absolute wonders for it
03:55:28 <Nothing\> non-abusable, non-addictive (or so they say, but i'll get into that shortly), no tolerance develops so i was on essentially the same dose the whole 10 years i was taking it
03:55:52 <Nothing\> and it worked like a charm, keeping me fast asleep for a good 10-16 hours a night
03:56:16 <Nothing\> but yeah, they say it's not addictive
03:56:45 <Nothing\> but when i stopped taking it, i got the abosolute worst nausea i've ever had, plus vomiting
03:57:10 <Nothing\> like just looking at a dirty puddle was enough to make my brain imagine what it tastes like and thenmy stomach would get queasy
03:57:37 <Nothing\> ah Ampera
03:57:49 <Nothing\> i brought up the issue with my therapist yesterday with my psychiatrist
03:58:02 <Nothing\> he agrees at the very least i need a new therapist
03:58:18 <Nothing\> he wasn't so sure how fruitful a complaint would be since it's basically my word against his
03:58:31 <steve30> o/
03:58:50 <Nothing\> and frankly being a drug addicted, mentally ill, convicted (by plea bargain) sex offender my word doesn't mean shit
03:58:57 <Nothing\> hey steve30 how's it going?
03:59:27 <Nothing\> i have no doubt i coulda beat that case if i had a competant lawyer
03:59:30 <Kuschelpony> my problem is a different issue and probably unsolveable
03:59:58 <Nothing\> i could have had the charges thrown out on account of it took longer than 24 months for a trial to be set, which violates my right to a speed trial
04:00:04 <steve30> i was feeling good yesterday, but crap today
04:00:07 <Kuschelpony> think there are special circles of people, lets say about not so much sexual but otherwise adult lifestyle
04:00:13 <Nothing\> but my lawyer just shrugged it off and tried to say nobody ever got off on that
04:00:21 <Nothing\> meanwhile i found numerous case reports of people who did
04:00:30 <Kuschelpony> peiople who are very picky about who they wa<nt to talk with and totally run by gut feelings
04:00:36 <Nothing\> steve30, aw i'm sorry to hear that, man
04:00:43 <Nothing\> i hope you're feeling better soon
04:00:52 <Ampera> Nothing\, well I hope you can figure out how to get yourself off him
04:01:08 <Kuschelpony> and i am as the typical nerdy engineer just cant please them to be ever accepted
04:01:24 <Kuschelpony> steve, waht happened with you, can we halp you?
04:02:04 <Nothing\> Ampera, yeah i think first line of business is to make an in-person appointment with my probation officer and bring my mother in with me so we can both explain what we saw that day and bring up our concerns and that i'm planning on submitting a formal complaint against him
04:02:05 Join: ThunderSqueak ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
04:02:05 Mode: (by ChanOP) +o ThunderSqueak
04:02:21 <Nothing\> and that my psychiatrist's opinion is that i need a new therapist
04:02:26 <Nothing\> if i can get that in writing, i'm gold
04:02:50 <Ampera> hi ThunderSqueak, how are you doing?
04:02:56 <steve30> I stopped taking my medication a couple of weeks ago so I'm just suffering withdrawal effects.
04:02:57 <Nothing\> like i'm not trying to weasel out of it or anything. I would love to get an effective therapist
04:03:25 <ThunderSqueak> doing ok, I get vaccinated today o.o
04:03:27 <Nothing\> i just want to make sure 1. i no longer have to deal with this guy's BS and 2. nobody else can be a victim of his BS
04:03:36 <Nothing\> ThunderSqueak, nice
04:03:44 * Nothing\ high fives ThunderSqueak
04:03:49 <Kuschelpony> oh great
04:04:02 <Nothing\> steve30, that could well be causing your anxiety
04:04:07 <Nothing\> what meds were you on?
04:04:08 <Kuschelpony> im still waitingt, currently its approximately 5 months, until i can sign up for the vaccination
04:04:14 <Nothing\> if you don't mind my asking, of course
04:04:33 <steve30> citalopram 40mg
04:04:40 <Nothing\> ah yeah
04:04:48 <Nothing\> those SSRIs have some nasty withdrawal effects
04:04:59 <ThunderSqueak> ah, the native hospital here is vaccinating people as fast as they can get them
04:05:01 <Nothing\> or SNRIs or whatever citalopram was
04:05:34 <Nothing\> ThunderSqueak, i just read about the ex CEO of a Casino and an actress (canadians) traveling to a remote community in the Yukon to get a shot
04:05:45 <Nothing\> telling the mobile vaccination unit they live and work in the community
04:05:58 <Nothing\> good luck @ them trying to get their second dose
04:06:04 <ThunderSqueak> oh that is low :(
04:06:17 <Kuschelpony> here we are grouped from 1 to 4, the oldest, the sickest and the most system relevant youn are in group 1 now getting their vaccines, i am in group 4
04:06:22 <ThunderSqueak> like wtf is wrong with them, they allot only so many for an area at a given time
04:06:40 <Nothing\> yeah and i guess a lot of florida residents are angry because snowbirds (canadians who travel south for the winter) are getting vaccinated
04:06:47 <ThunderSqueak> some of the villages here are hit really hard :(
04:06:54 <Nothing\> but this is all accepted by the florida health unit or whatever
04:06:57 <Kuschelpony> best wishes you dont get it
04:07:13 <Kuschelpony> (the virus)
04:07:14 <Nothing\> they say whoever you are or where you're from, if you're part of this community, you're getting the vaccine
04:07:22 Join: coppice ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
04:07:40 <Nothing\> yeah i really hope i don't get it, but it looks like the chances are getting better and better
04:07:50 <Nothing\> especially with the UK variant being found across canada now
04:08:01 <ThunderSqueak> my wife went in yesterday for hers
04:08:21 <Nothing\> right on
04:08:27 <ThunderSqueak> I wanted her to get hers ASAP, her job is extremely high risk.
04:08:52 <steve30> Nothing\, citalopram = ssri
04:08:53 <Nothing\> ThunderSqueak, around here the hardest hit seem to be retirement homes and prisons because they take almost no precautions against spreading it
04:09:12 <Nothing\> like, retirement homes just let patients with covid wander the halls, no isolation or anything
04:09:17 <steve30> Nothing\, I did once have Venlafaxine, an SNRI which has far worse withdrawal effects
04:09:35 <Nothing\> and in prisons, they're housing inmates with covid in the same Gen Pop as people who haven't got it
04:09:55 <Nothing\> and in some cases, are even making people with covid cellmates with people who don't have it
04:10:22 <Nothing\> meanwhile in the juvenile system, the kids are made to spend 2 weeks in solitary as isolation to make sure they don't bring it in
04:10:38 <Nothing\> while solitary is illegal to use on juveniles
04:10:55 <Nothing\> steve30, ah yeah, i was on effexor once upon a time
04:10:59 <Nothing\> my brother takes it atm
04:11:05 <Nothing\> he almost seems to enjoy it
04:12:00 <Nothing\> personally i've been on zoloft, citalopram, effexor, paxil, depakote and some other variant of it
04:12:19 <Nothing\> and i had enough of the trial and error game, so i just stopped bothering
04:17:36 <ThunderSqueak> they opened the schools however without any of the teachers vaccinated, my wife is one. THey don't even have a plan in place to get them vaccinated. it is just stupid
04:22:38 <ThunderSqueak> we went through IHS instead
04:22:41 <ThunderSqueak> :/
04:27:28 <K> what is IHS ?
04:45:32 <arch> butts...according to my research, average joe optocouplers suck ass past about 60kHz

05:11:06 <Ysjoelfir> mornings
05:14:29 <ThunderSqueak> k, Indian Health Services (Native American Medical)
05:16:12 <Ysjoelfir> K, I wonder if you could get your hands on cyberflux flux. Seems to be hard to get in germanistan.
05:16:37 <Ampera> My saltpeter has shipped
05:17:18 <Ysjoelfir> do you want to build a bomb?
05:17:23 <ThunderSqueak> what are you doing with saltpeter?
05:17:36 <Ampera> Biltong
05:18:34 <Ampera> It's not strictly necessary, but I may eventually want to give people my biltong, so I want to eliminate even the remote chance it might grow botulinum while drying
05:19:11 <ThunderSqueak> ok, that is a better use then the other uses for that chemical
05:20:28 <Ampera> This is food grade stuff, much nicer than stuff I'd turn into a blackpowder mix
05:22:45 <Ampera> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/449968711789445127/803691320278253648/20210126_132159.jpg
05:22:49 <Ampera> This is how my current batch is looking
05:23:10 <Ampera> the piece on the lower right is a sacrificial piece I cut into in order to check drying progress
05:23:36 <Ampera> I will not be eating it due to aforementioned botulism risk, but the other pieces should be good, as they've been cured with salt and vinegar
05:23:43 <Ampera> (and not opened up)

05:30:55 <Nothing\> well, given i jsut got out of a meeting with a detective, i'd say that was rather harmless and nothing at all to have been anxious about
05:31:00 <Nothing\> wish i'd known that beforehand
05:31:41 <Nothing\> still shakey, despite anxiety meds, but it'll pass and i'll be fine
05:31:42 <Ampera> What did he want?
05:32:01 <Nothing\> just an update on my info, home address, new tattoos, changes in appearance, new photos
05:32:09 <Ampera> alright
05:32:20 <Nothing\> apparently i've gotta go in every year to do that until 2030
05:32:55 <Nothing\> dunno why they'd have a detective do that though. It seems like a waste of resources considering anyone coulda done that
05:33:11 <Nothing\> but according to my mom he was in on my case, so maybe that's why
05:33:16 <Nothing\> anyways enough of that
05:33:23 <Nothing\> how are you Ampera?
05:33:30 * Nothing\ tackle hugs Ampera <3<3<#
05:34:07 <Ampera> alright, was just monitoring my biltong
05:34:14 <Ampera> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/449968711789445127/803691320278253648/20210126_132159.jpg
05:34:52 <Nothing\> mmm that looks tasty
05:35:09 <Nothing\> you got a slow cooker? those look like they'd make some great babies with a slow cooker
05:35:09 <Ampera> not done yet, gonna leave it in there for about another 36 hours
05:35:16 <Nothing\> ah there ya go
05:35:16 <steve30> my right foot feels a bit sore
05:35:17 <Ampera> what
05:35:23 <Nothing\> Ampera, a crock pot?
05:35:36 <Ampera> you're not supposed to cook biltong
05:35:41 <Ampera> it's dry cured
05:35:44 <Nothing\> ah
05:35:47 <Nothing\> i did not know that
05:35:49 <Ampera> it'd be like slow cooking jerky
05:35:53 <Nothing\> it looks so tender in that picture
05:35:57 <Ampera> it's not
05:35:59 <Nothing\> like it'd just fall apart in your mouth
05:35:59 <Ampera> it's dry
05:36:14 <Ampera> if anything it'd be incredibly tough
05:36:28 <Ampera> if you took a bit out of it you'd probably leave a few teeth in it
05:36:34 <Ampera> *bite
05:36:48 <Nothing\> it's a shame, cuz i only have 9 molars left in my whole mouth, so i can't chew jerky anymore
05:36:51 <Nothing\> or fresh veg
05:36:59 <Ampera> You might like this, as it's cut very very thin
05:37:01 <Ampera> like shaving thin
05:37:13 <Nothing\> now that sounds more up my alley
05:37:17 <Ampera> so while it's chewy, it's very thin, and also cut against the grain
05:37:39 <Nothing\> i can't chew hard things or things that break up into smaller pieces like nuts, or hard things
05:37:46 <Ampera> so that means you don't have to chew through the grain of the meat
05:37:53 <Nothing\> it really sucks cuz that throws out a lot of good food i like
05:38:48 <Ampera> I'd be willing to send you some, but not this batch
05:39:14 <Nothing\> let's see on the left side i have 1 molar on the bottom and 3 on top and on the right side i have 3 on bottom and 3 on top
05:39:19 <Ampera> I'm only letting myself and maybe close family eat this batch, as it's the first time I've ever attempted it, and I don't have enough confidence to risk the liability
05:39:25 <Nothing\> hrm musta missed one of the first time
05:39:39 <Nothing\> but my point is i have like 1/4 the chewing surface area of a normal mouth
05:40:03 <Ampera> the future batches will be done with a known drying time, and will be cured with saltpeter
05:40:13 <Nothing\> saltpeter you say
05:40:23 <Ampera> saltpeter, potassium nitrate
05:40:28 <Nothing\> where'd you get that? just a meat shop or something? or some place online
05:40:32 <Nothing\> aye, i'm familiar
05:40:40 <Nothing\> i've always wanted some
05:40:54 <Ampera> From The Craft Butchers' Pantry
05:40:56 <Ampera> it's food grade
05:41:01 <Nothing\> ah nice
05:41:52 <Ampera> I also intend to try some other flavors too, such as worcestershire sauce, nutmeg, clove, some other things
05:41:58 <Ampera> some different sorts of vinegar
05:42:08 <Ampera> this is just a very basic recipe, it's salt, pepper, malt vinegar, and ground coriander
05:42:22 <Nothing\> right on
05:42:28 <Ampera> the meat is beef eye of round
05:43:05 <Ampera> It's actually been getting a very unique purple color, which is what I expected, but it'
05:43:08 <Ampera> s really unique to see
05:43:27 <Nothing\> anyways i should get to making some lunch. This conversation isn't exactly quelling my apetite lol
05:43:32 <Nothing\> huh that's pretty neat
05:43:39 <Nothing\> purple beef
05:43:40 <Ampera> Alright, have a good day. I'll probably go eat something soon
05:43:45 <Ampera> because I was intending to go running
05:43:49 <Ampera> but it's snowing, so I guess I won't
05:43:58 <Ampera> Nothing\, when I cure it with saltpeter it will keep a redder color
05:44:04 <Nothing\> I WILL NOT EAT YOUR FEET AND BEEF I WOULD NOT EAT THEM SAM THE QUEEF
05:44:05 <Ampera> more similar to a prosciutto or salami
05:44:12 <Ampera> ok
05:44:52 <Nothing\> I WOULD NOT EAT THEM ON A HILL, I WOULD NOT EAT THEM AFTER A KILL, I WOULD NOT EAT THEM SAM THE QUEEF
05:45:11 <Ampera> ok
05:45:14 <Nothing\> I think you just gave me idea for a chlidren's book
05:45:23 <Ampera> "children's"
05:45:39 <Nothing\> yeah, the successor to sam i am
05:45:45 <Nothing\> or green eggs and ham, rather
05:46:05 <Nothing\> only it's "my feet and beef"
05:46:26 <Nothing\> lol alright time to eat i think

06:46:33 <Andre> nani?
06:46:52 <Ysjoelfir> I thought we were raving together, mr. head?
06:47:21 <Andre> Scooter? Is that a request? ( as I'm currently doing an online radio show )
06:48:50 <Ysjoelfir> Oh nice! Yes, I would like to have Army of Hardcore. And a link to the stream so that I can enjoy it xD
06:56:12 <Andre> http://radio.blaatschaap.be ( stream is radio.blaatschaap.be:8000/blaatschaap-andre.ogg )
06:56:28 <Andre> Request wil be played after 22:00 CET (in an hour)
06:56:35 <Ysjoelfir> \o/
07:04:59 <Ysjoelfir> I wonder what that song is thats playing right now. sounds like santiano?
07:06:14 <Ysjoelfir> or maybe dartagnan? hm. whatever it was, I like it :D
07:08:07 <Andre> dartagnan - sing mir ein lied
07:08:40 <Ysjoelfir> Hey, second guess was right, not that bad^^
07:17:00 Quit: arch ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
07:29:20 <Ysjoelfir> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCg4nn2EzV0 Also not bad xD
07:34:00 * steve30 curls up on Ysjoelfir's lap
07:34:09 * Ysjoelfir pets the steve
07:34:23 * steve30 purrs
07:35:01 <steve30> I'm trying to put a CPC order together. I don't have the brain power atm for dealing with websites
07:35:15 * steve30 whacks the internet with a catalogue
07:35:42 <Ysjoelfir> I like catalogue
07:35:42 <Ysjoelfir> s
07:55:52 * steve30 fancies going to bed
07:57:43 <Ysjoelfir> Andre is playing lots of good songs. I should listen to that more often.
07:57:51 <TheDude> ahoy
07:58:23 <Andre> Ysjoelfir, I'll do a show every Tuesday starting at 20:00 CET
07:58:54 * Ysjoelfir notes that down
07:59:30 <Ysjoelfir> I alwayst thought you belgian guys only speak french and dutch, but I notice many german songs.
08:00:33 <Andre> I am Dutch, by the way
08:00:52 <Andre> I grew up near the Belgian and German border, in Limburg
08:01:18 <Andre> but back in the my student days, when I came up with the name BlaatSchaap, blaatschaap.nl and blaatschaap.com were both taken
08:01:31 <Ysjoelfir> Aaaah. I judged by the url^^
08:01:33 <Andre> Then I was like. Sheep go be (Schaap = sheep)
08:01:52 <Andre> But there is a part of Belgium that speaks German
08:02:02 <Ysjoelfir> is it?
08:03:00 <TheDude> dude
08:03:04 <TheDude> even I know that :D
08:04:53 <Ysjoelfir> I only know from that strange german/belgian tripple border thing. even though I was always living within one hour to the borders I somehow never had much to do with belgium - though I love the fries they have. nearly as good as Pommes Spezial from the dutch <3 Especially if you add a Frikandel to that.
08:08:20 Join: rc-IIV ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
08:09:53 <rc-IIV> this was also a day
08:12:49 <Ysjoelfir> was it?
08:13:01 <Ysjoelfir> also: \o/ Andre
08:14:00 <rc-IIV> i am getting used to city people not having faces. i think it was just a couple years ago, that they considered banning "masks"
08:16:43 <Ysjoelfir> Andre, mr. spouse was like "he had so nice, calm music, and then you wish for army of hardcore, seriously!?" XD
08:17:42 <Andre> gehehehe
08:17:58 <Ysjoelfir> rc-IIV - we did that actually. but they lifted that ban some time ago again
08:18:09 <Ysjoelfir> *mrs. spouse I meant xD
08:18:37 <Ysjoelfir> But well, Unheilig is not the most calm song either, so I think I'm fine here :P
08:19:11 <Andre> Well.... it is request hour! Come with your requests!
08:19:27 <rc-IIV> hmmm?
08:19:41 <Ysjoelfir> lol, mrs. spouse was just like "can I request something as well?"
08:19:51 <rc-IIV> ate you radio today?
08:19:56 <rc-IIV> are
08:20:08 <Ysjoelfir> rc-IIV - Andre has a nice stream running. if you can, try it :) radio.blaatschaap.be:8000/blaatschaap-andre.ogg
08:20:17 <rc-IIV> oh
08:20:38 <Ysjoelfir> Andre, mrs. spouse would wish for saltatio mortis - spiel mit dem feuer
08:21:20 <TheDude> Andre, orden ogan - gunman :)
08:21:34 <TheDude> let's annoy Ysjoelfir's spouse some more :D
08:22:36 <rc-IIV> what is this oirish country stuff?
08:22:40 <Ysjoelfir> hahaha :D I love you guys^^ also, rc-IIV, can you join from the phone?
08:22:44 <Ysjoelfir> ah. yes you can. :D
08:23:04 <TheDude> I'm just listening inside a browser tab
08:23:13 <rc-IIV> join and join, i can hear it
08:23:17 <rc-IIV> me too
08:24:14 <Ysjoelfir> whatever the song is, I love it. I know that it must be some version of Star of the County Down, but I wonder who sang this version.
08:25:45 <rc-IIV> so I guess i have to ask for gnae their tongues, nihilism tied up and burning. say hi to mrs wifey Ysjoelfir
08:26:06 <Ysjoelfir> I did and hi back :)
08:26:38 <Andre> Ysjoelfir, this was a version by 3JS
08:26:54 <Ysjoelfir> thanks :)
08:28:54 <rc-IIV> tjis thing does remimd me of something
08:31:09 <Ysjoelfir> Andre, if you want to annoy everyone, especially rc-IIV and mrs. spouse, you should play "Im Grunewald ist Holzauktion" by Das große Berliner Ballorchester as the last song xD But you might have less listeners than the next time^^
08:31:50 <rc-IIV> i lke lumber auctions...
08:34:56 <rc-IIV> i do not habe much problems with proper music, but the pop-country-drinking songs the wife always listen to is horrible. and any other country music, and especially reggae. that makes my brain curl up
08:35:52 <Ysjoelfir> I read that loud and mrs. spouse was chuckling. I think she agrees with you^^
08:36:15 <rc-IIV> good wifey
08:39:19 <Ysjoelfir> Whatever we are listening to now reminds me somehow of mindless self indulgence - shut me up. no idea why. I should listen to that one soon, its... strange but nice. you should try it as well, mr. rc-IIV
08:39:34 <Ysjoelfir> That was to the previous song though^^
08:39:57 <rc-IIV> mmm
08:40:44 <rc-IIV> how many are listenimg to this stream then?
08:41:15 <Andre> 4 people on the ogg stream, 3 people on the mp3 stream
08:41:25 <rc-IIV> ok
08:42:34 <Ysjoelfir> \o/
08:42:43 <Ysjoelfir> mrs. spouse thanks you Andre^^
08:46:29 <TheDude> \m/ :)
08:46:36 <Ysjoelfir> lol
08:47:26 <rc-IIV> I am sensing some kind of theme to this
08:47:43 <TheDude> I'm guessing you're probably playing the music video, Andre
08:47:49 <TheDude> the video is... special :D
08:48:19 <Andre> I ripped it from youtube with clipgrab, audio only, being played in winamp now
08:48:59 <Ysjoelfir> TheDude, I have to say that mr. spouse enjoys it, and suggests Andre to accompany this nice song with Hallowed be thy name from Hammerfall^^
08:49:55 <TheDude> nice :D
08:52:10 <rc-IIV> Andre: do you do this often?
08:52:56 <Andre> I've been doing weekly shows since this pandemic started
08:53:24 <Andre> I used to do this from 2005 to 2009, and when corona started I resurrected by old hobby,
08:54:17 <rc-IIV> nice
08:57:05 <TheDude> Andre, I have another one for you
08:57:22 <TheDude> neelix - 1000 sterne
08:57:38 <TheDude> use the 3 min 48s version
08:58:10 <Andre> Neelix? As in, Star Trek Voyager?
08:58:27 <TheDude> yeah, the guy probably took the name after that character
08:59:26 <rc-IIV> very nerd
08:59:39 * Ysjoelfir enjoys the depeche mode song very much
08:59:57 <TheDude> ditto
09:00:41 <rc-IIV> me too, but i think people should figure out that they had several other songs also, lol
09:00:54 <TheDude> Andre, btw, I only hear your voice on the right channel... is that intentional?
09:01:46 <Andre> TheDude, my mixer is stereo, and my mic is mono... it's more on effect of my equipment
09:02:33 * TheDude brings out the soldering iron
09:02:36 <TheDude> :D
09:03:26 <rc-IIV> one of mr heads diode-pentagrams should sort that
09:03:34 <Ysjoelfir> rc-IIV - thats true. I like eg. blasphemous rumours from them very much, as well as photographic. I think those two are probably withing the 10 least played from them xD
09:03:39 <Ysjoelfir> lol
09:04:35 <rc-IIV> Wow they loades me in 6 minutes. must be someone watching them today
09:05:20 <Ysjoelfir> lol
09:06:04 <Ysjoelfir> thats roughly.... four times as fast as they managed in the old transport company where I worked
09:07:03 <rc-IIV> it is 25 minutes less than they usually do
09:09:07 <Ysjoelfir> hehe
09:09:31 <Ysjoelfir> Andre, another suggestion: Priest - History in Black
09:09:43 <TheDude> haha, what I love most about song requests is how genres change abruptly :D
09:10:08 <TheDude> back in the day, my grandma would love to send song requests for my birthday to a local radio
09:10:48 <TheDude> they did the song requests and reading of greeting messages on the local radio on sundays
09:10:53 <Ysjoelfir> Absolutely :D Its nice to see the difference in Mood between the two channels :D Seems like someone in the other channel is a bit sad atm. Send some cheers over to the people there from me :)
09:11:06 <Ysjoelfir> TheDude, Aww, thats nice :)
09:11:10 <TheDude> we would eat lunch and listen to the radio, waiting for grandma's song request/birthday wish to come
09:11:14 <rc-IIV> ok, have fun, i am going in the home-direction. play some joy division
09:11:33 Quit: rc-IIV ([email protected]) Quit: leaving
09:11:42 <TheDude> and you'd have some casual pop, perhaps some oberkrainer music
09:11:43 <Andre> TheDude, same where I grew up, sunday morning, there was this show "postbus 31" on the L1 radio
09:11:57 <TheDude> and then there would be a Manowar song, because that's what I told my grandma to ask for :D:D:D
09:12:12 <MrMobodies> Hello
09:12:12 <TheDude> that shit was so fucking awesome :D
09:12:17 <TheDude> hi
09:12:38 <MrMobodies> Just experimented with some distro with Openbox
09:12:54 <MrMobodies> then I realizsed that is also contaminated with GTK3
09:13:06 <MrMobodies> but that windowmaker I am pleased about
09:13:19 <MrMobodies> no warning messages
09:13:37 <MrMobodies> next to nothing animations
09:13:50 <MrMobodies> a bit different though but I don't mind
09:14:15 <MrMobodies> I am looking for something similar to Gparted that will read the file systems on there
09:14:30 <MrMobodies> It is on Freebsd
09:15:13 <MrMobodies> I installed some of the file managers and two of them did not have the scroll issue
09:15:33 <MrMobodies> where it would cycle through other directories when reaching the top
09:15:44 * Ysjoelfir immagines out local radio back than playing manowar and faily while doing so
09:16:17 <MrMobodies> local radio... I miss that
09:16:46 <MrMobodies> last time I tuned in I heard people screaming down the the microphone which ruined my day
09:16:50 <steve30> eww, GTK3
09:16:51 <Ysjoelfir> You pronounced it perfect, Andre :)
09:16:59 <Andre> ^^
09:18:02 <Andre> Ys and fir make me think, like Swedish, and oe, well... I read it like Dutch.
09:18:10 <MrMobodies> Ateve30, when looked further I saw that thing installed on the other distros
09:19:24 * steve30 passes MrMobodies a rant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoRzaZsaSLY
09:19:32 <MrMobodies> so now I am going try and make sure that whatever I install doesn't have GTK3 if it is going to persistently intefere with my concentration and my viewing of things
09:19:45 <Ysjoelfir> I wanted it to have kind of a nordic touch :) the name was actually created by rolling over my keyboard and then tweaking it to make it more readable and nicer. and for whatever reason it reminded me of Yggdrasil, so I kept that.
09:20:43 <MrMobodies> aaaah so the scrollbar thing is a GTK3 thing
09:20:53 <MrMobodies> from the video link
09:23:21 <MrMobodies> actually it is when I use the mousewheel reaching top of the results and it cycles to the other directory.
09:24:08 <Ysjoelfir> Andre, thanks for hosting this nice stream, we enjoyed it very much!
09:24:27 <Andre> Thanks for listening
09:24:30 <TheDude> Andre, thanks for playing my stuff :)
09:24:39 Quit: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) EOF from client
09:24:44 <TheDude> internet radios are fun
09:25:00 <TheDude> I had a nerd schoolmate back in primary school
09:25:13 <TheDude> he hosted a bootleg radio as well on the weekends
09:25:14 <MrMobodies> unfortunately I missed it now I see it: radio.blaatschaap.be:8000/blaatschaap-andre.ogg
09:25:47 <TheDude> but he was actually afraid that the government radio enforcement agency van would roll up to the house
09:25:55 <TheDude> because he used to transmit that on FM :D
09:25:58 <Andre> Next week Tuesday at 20:00 CET I'll be doing a show again
09:26:03 <Andre> And well... I'm a pirate
09:26:04 <MrMobodies> Is that some kind of a rock band playing?
09:26:15 <MrMobodies> I hear guitar strings
09:26:18 <Ysjoelfir> that should be dragonforce
09:26:21 <Andre> Now it's an automated playlist
09:26:43 <TheDude> yeah, herman lee is one of the rare people that can actually pull that shit off on the guitar
09:26:55 <TheDude> li*
09:29:37 <MrMobodies> I never heard of them before but they sing nicely and can play the guitar
09:30:17 <Andre> I'm off to bed. g'night
09:30:20 <MrMobodies> they seem to handle the instruments nice too
09:31:07 <TheDude> \o
09:33:28 <coppice> Herman Li seems to have created an entire career from one solo
09:35:17 <TheDude> are you talking about through the fire and flames?
09:35:44 <coppice> of course
09:35:56 <TheDude> I think calling that one solo is a bit of an understatement, but it's essentially exactly what it is
09:35:58 <TheDude> the whole song :D
09:36:40 <TheDude> but yeah, they gained a lot of fame because of that one
09:36:54 <TheDude> because of how ridiculously hard it is to perform
09:36:59 <TheDude> but they do have other songs, you know :D
09:38:19 <coppice> like being babymetal's backing band? :)
09:38:53 <TheDude> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

11:32:46 <rust_collector> aaand, re-morning
11:34:51 <Halcyon> Morning
11:35:09 <T3sl4> evening
11:36:42 <rust_collector> ok
11:36:54 <arch> butts
11:37:20 <rust_collector> MrMobodies, are you sure you want to avoid gtk3? sure you can, but... eeh
11:37:42 <rust_collector> time for breakfast! WOOHOO!
11:39:04 <rust_collector> I think even xfce is moving to gtk3 now
11:52:10 <MrMobodies> Hello
11:52:29 <MrMobodies> oh it has I came across it
11:52:39 <MrMobodies> where it was dimming the inactive windows
11:52:52 <MrMobodies> and the text
11:53:02 <MrMobodies> which I found incredibly annoying and inconvenient
11:53:25 <MrMobodies> and I found this like with people complaining about it
11:53:28 <rust_collector> well, it will only do what it is told to do... so someone must have told it to
11:54:04 <rust_collector> so, what do you plan on using? fltk, qt?
11:54:08 <rust_collector> nothing?
11:54:10 <MrMobodies> https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=13140
11:54:29 <MrMobodies> well Ampera help me with that Windowmaker
11:54:33 <MrMobodies> and that is a start
11:55:00 <MrMobodies> different but doesn't make my blood level go up with the pressure in my head due to the frustration
11:55:15 <MrMobodies> and the PCMANFM file manager looks good too
11:55:23 <rust_collector> sure, but that is a window manager. it should not have much to do with gtk things
11:55:38 <rust_collector> pcmanfm, did he start working on that again?
11:55:39 <MrMobodies> aah qt
11:56:00 <MrMobodies> it was available on the catalogue
11:56:09 <MrMobodies> also another thng
11:56:48 <MrMobodies> when I scroll up, on a file manager, like Caja, go up further and switches to the next directory which is not what i want
11:56:56 <MrMobodies> not setting for that
11:57:24 <MrMobodies> I'll install if with this Windowmaker and see if it does the same (whether it is connected to GTK3 or not)
11:58:00 <MrMobodies> thanks for suggestiong FLTK and QT
11:58:05 <MrMobodies> I;ll note that
11:58:48 <rust_collector> I am not suggesting anything, i am asking if you have thought about what you want to replace gtk3 with, or if you will stay away from any such things
11:58:54 <MrMobodies> also I tried the last edition of TrueBSD and it does the same with the dimming
11:59:10 <MrMobodies> well I see I can still get GTK2
11:59:17 <MrMobodies> and see what works with that
12:00:22 <rust_collector> I figure it mostly depends on what programs you want to use, and what toolkit they use. some times, you can choose, but you might have to compile it yourself, or somehting like that
12:00:29 <MrMobodies> if it is going to interfere and do stuff like dim things such as inactive stuff that I may be looking at and i can't see mthem well
12:01:28 <MrMobodies> I read somewhere when I was digging down on the issue a developer stating "the features are frozen" if you want it changed compile it yourself.
12:02:32 <MrMobodies> I also read that they were complaining inthe past about other people's themes breaking the look of their "apps" as to why they wanted to stop themes
12:02:54 <MrMobodies> so they made their own and it does things I don't want it to do.
12:04:03 Quit: TheDude ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
12:06:08 <MrMobodies> It's called Backdrop
12:06:09 <MrMobodies> https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/777
12:06:49 <MrMobodies> "Emmanuele Bassi @ebassi said: First of all, GTK+ 3.x is feature frozen, which means no new settings/features, especially to control themes."
12:09:29 <rust_collector> well, you COULD just use a theme that does not annoy you...
12:10:08 <MrMobodies> If I come across one I'd surely find a way to install and test it
12:10:14 <MrMobodies> if it solves that issue
12:10:55 <rust_collector> that stuff seems to be a "feature" in gtk3, but still, if no one asks it to do use that feature, it won't
12:12:13 <MrMobodies> one of the two may have to happen, either I recompile it and remove the backdrop component (never compiled before) or find another theme that doesn't do that
12:12:22 <rust_collector> but, Imo, anything that comes from gnome should die
12:13:04 <MrMobodies> Any feature like that I believe should have an off switch, should be optional, not everyone needs or wants parts of the work space dimmed.
12:13:08 Quit: ThunderSqueak ([email protected]) Quit: Leaving
12:13:51 <MrMobodies> I remember Gnome in Ubuntu in 2009, 2010,
12:14:02 <rust_collector> it does look like it has a switch, it is just that the switch is wired backwards, when you are using it with someone elses extra stuff
12:14:26 <MrMobodies> and the last one I think took me a long time to get right in 2014. There was a thing I think called a fallback to Gnome 2 or so
12:14:42 <MrMobodies> I use was using it as a fileserver
12:15:01 <MrMobodies> it worked fine for a couple of years
12:15:41 <MrMobodies> but I don't remember loosing my temper like i do now because those thing I don't remember there to annoy me.
12:15:59 <rust_collector> I think I agree with ampera, forget the desktop, use a window manager. something that uses no such weird things, just Xlib,
12:16:19 <MrMobodies> okay xlib I';lk note that too
12:16:50 <MrMobodies> Thank you for suggesting stuff
12:17:13 <rust_collector> but yes, it really does depend on what programs you want to use, and if they will work without gtk, and things
12:18:24 <rust_collector> if you are using it as a server, you should not really need to have X at all, imo. but even if you do use X, you can still use console things, like file managers, and such
12:18:45 <rust_collector> no gtk3 if you don't have X
12:21:02 <MrMobodies> I plam on using a copy for mounting file systems
12:21:23 <rust_collector> yes
12:21:35 <MrMobodies> so I can bypass setting permissions on windows 10 when I want to remove stuff
12:21:47 <MrMobodies> and also mount the Pfsense drive when I want edit files
12:21:52 <MrMobodies> things like that
12:22:01 <rust_collector> you do not really need a desktop environment to mount file systems...
12:22:12 <MrMobodies> it is the file manager I need
12:22:23 <MrMobodies> and i need many of them opened at once
12:22:29 <rust_collector> ok. if you want to use a file manager, that is fine
12:22:30 <MrMobodies> so I can copy stuff quickly

12:24:54 <rust_collector> there are many file managers out there. some do more, some do less, some work without X. have you tried commandline file management?
12:25:12 <rust_collector> it is pretty quick, if you have some idea of where your stuff is
12:26:53 <MrMobodies> is that a package, I can't find it on Freebsd unless you mean file copying from the command line
12:27:19 <rust_collector> from command lne, yes
12:27:28 <MrMobodies> of course
12:27:50 <MrMobodies> BUT I find it easier, quicker and I can concentrate on looking at endless files and directories
12:28:11 <MrMobodies> using the file manages
12:28:47 <MrMobodies> when I want to compare stuff from different drives I find it easy doing it that way where i can have two file managers opened
12:29:18 <rust_collector> easy, yes
12:30:19 <rust_collector> so i guess the important thing for you is drag and drop between windows?
12:31:32 <MrMobodies> yep
12:31:51 <MrMobodies> I do that all the time
12:32:36 <MrMobodies> when I edit something with lots of text in, I just copy and paste it first just incase I make a mistake somewhere and don't see it
12:33:30 <rust_collector> have you tried rox-filer? it is a little bit different looking than most file managers, but it is more or less just a window with file icons, you can drag and drop, between windows, or to and from the terminal, which I guess is most of what you would use a file manager for
12:34:30 <rust_collector> I quite like it, but it is sort of weird in a way. but if it works for you, then... why not
12:35:28 <rust_collector> I am not sure if you can get it for the bsds, but I would think so
12:35:42 <MrMobodies> that looks alright
12:35:42 <MrMobodies> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ROX_Desktop#/media/File:Rox-desktop-2004.png
12:35:46 <MrMobodies> ooh its from 2004
12:36:06 <rust_collector> well, forget about the desktop. you needed a file manager
12:38:08 <MrMobodies> well I have tried a few, caja (mousewheel issue), Thunar (okay) and PCMANFM (more suited)
12:38:36 <MrMobodies> and PCMANFM search which is very basic in showing details but does the job
12:38:54 <rust_collector> at least you can split the window in pcmanfm, if I remember correctly. Unlike thunar
12:38:57 <MrMobodies> I am missing fields like date created which would be very handy
12:39:01 <MrMobodies> oh yes
12:39:07 <MrMobodies> it has button on the left
12:39:12 <MrMobodies> which opens a seperate tab
12:39:37 <rust_collector> I am pretty sure you can have it display dates, if you want that
12:39:38 <MrMobodies> I don't normal like tabs for that but in this case it works in my favour when I need it for something
12:39:56 <MrMobodies> there is "date modified" but "date created" would be nice
12:40:04 <rust_collector> oh
12:40:07 <MrMobodies> unless it is labelled under somethong different such as date
12:40:21 <rust_collector> not sure.
12:43:19 <MrMobodies> haaahhah when installing the KDE I see QT5 files in there
12:43:23 <rust_collector> yes
12:43:33 <rust_collector> all of kde is qt5
12:43:43 Quit: Some_Person ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
12:43:53 <rust_collector> what is funny about that?
12:44:48 <rust_collector> gnome has gtk, kde uses qt
12:46:32 <MrMobodies> oh no I mean ah
12:46:36 <MrMobodies> mistyped
12:46:46 <MrMobodies> there is a Plasma thing too
12:46:48 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/UVTBSVag.jpg
12:46:51 <MrMobodies> that does the dimming
12:47:09 <rust_collector> plasma thing is the desktop environment, iIrc
12:47:16 <MrMobodies> as soon as something says "Polished" I smell bullsh*t.
12:47:48 <MrMobodies> I mean the description in the picture
12:48:08 Join: Some_Person ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
12:48:51 <MrMobodies> joke: well it is true they did polish inactive tab.
12:53:55 <rust_collector> you can change settings of almost anything in kde. At least on this install, there is no dimming, when I focus a different window
12:54:36 <rust_collector> but installing all of kde, is a lot of stuff, if you just want a file manager
12:55:55 <MrMobodies> well I am in my experimental phases
12:56:24 <MrMobodies> if I find something I like, I'll make set it up in a certain way and make a template out of it
12:56:33 <rust_collector> I am pretty happy with kde on this thing. it feels like a less annoying windows install
12:57:16 <MrMobodies> well that sounds good news to me
12:57:32 <MrMobodies> the first time I came across KDE was in 2002 I think
12:57:39 <rust_collector> I use almost nothing of it
12:57:55 <MrMobodies> it was at some computer shop in Chesterfield for businesses only
12:58:12 <MrMobodies> someone brought in this old AT case
12:58:35 <MrMobodies> the owner like the at case
12:58:41 <MrMobodies> but it kept on bending the motherboards
12:59:14 <rust_collector> yes, but it has changed a lot. in 2002, I am not sure what version it was. but they went up to kde3.5, which was an ok desktop, then they changed all the stuff, and made kde4, up to 4.4, I think, and that was imo unusable. kde5(plasma) seems to be much more sane
12:59:55 <MrMobodies> I am testing it now
12:59:59 <MrMobodies> waiting for it to install
13:00:36 <MrMobodies> another 341 out of 669 files to go
13:01:33 <MrMobodies> I remembered in 2009 or 2010
13:01:34 <rust_collector> if you want one more thing to try, install fluxbox on something. just start it with exec fluxbox in your .xinitrc, and startx to start it
13:01:43 <MrMobodies> fluxbox okay
13:02:27 <MrMobodies> there was a package called wine
13:02:40 <rust_collector> it is a window manager, similar-ish to openbox, in a way, but it has its own bar, and menus, and it uses normal text files, and not the xml stuff openbox uses
13:02:41 <MrMobodies> on Gnome 2 and it ran Unrealtournament very well
13:02:59 <rust_collector> wine is still around, and seems to be getting better
13:03:07 <MrMobodies> I noted that down and going to get a template prepared
13:03:33 <MrMobodies> I was surprised how stable it was and it worked well with Opengl
13:04:06 <rust_collector> it seems to work well, when it works, but some things just do not like running in a fake windows install
13:04:39 <Halcyon> Oh yay! We no longer have to wear masks at the shops from Friday
13:04:55 <MrMobodies> what country you from?
13:05:00 <rust_collector> oh yay! we never had to
13:05:32 <rust_collector> he is australian
13:05:38 <MrMobodies> I mean Halycon
13:05:40 <MrMobodies> oh
13:05:49 <MrMobodies> oh Dave's video in the shopping malls
13:05:53 <MrMobodies> they have been working hard
13:06:03 <MrMobodies> and keeping their distances
13:06:18 <rust_collector> working hard... australians... sounds weird to me
13:06:58 <MrMobodies> I thought Dave Jones was a hard worker
13:07:08 <rust_collector> i don't know the guy
13:07:21 <rust_collector> I am sure he has enough to do
13:07:22 <MrMobodies> Eevblog Dave Jones
13:08:02 <rust_collector> yes, I know who he is, but I do not stalk him, and see if he is working or not
13:08:12 <MrMobodies> he seems to put alot of effort and details into his videos
13:08:25 <MrMobodies> well I assumed he worked all the time
13:09:06 <MrMobodies> with all the stuff on his desks and that
13:09:48 <MrMobodies> oops i mean the broken stuff
13:10:28 <rust_collector> I have a lot of crap on my desk, that does not help much, lol. I am sure he spends a lot of time working.
13:11:48 <Halcyon> MrMobodies: Australia
13:12:00 <Halcyon> They made masks mandatory in parts of Sydney for the past few weeks
13:12:32 <MrMobodies> in England the infection rate is only just starting to fall
13:12:41 <MrMobodies> but masks still reqired in the shops
13:12:56 <rust_collector> well, it will go back up again, don't worry
13:13:29 <Halcyon> Yeh they brought in masks for shopping after a small cluster was discovered
13:13:44 <Halcyon> They didn't want it going nuts like what happened in Victoria
13:13:55 <MrMobodies> cluster?
13:14:02 <MrMobodies> ah cluster of people
13:14:38 <rust_collector> i am pretty impressed with the way you managed to burn all of victoria, and keep the journalists bust with other things.
13:14:44 <rust_collector> good job
13:14:45 <coppice> Good British innovation in COVID variants caused the infection rate to soar in December. Now its level off, because the British government always does its best to crush innovation
13:14:52 <Halcyon> We only had 2 cases in this state and both were from overseas travellers in quarantine
13:15:18 <Halcyon> Currently 39 known active cases in the state and those people are all quarantined as well
13:15:50 <coppice> Britain reached a milestone today. 100k COVID deaths.
13:16:04 <Halcyon> Oh congrats :P
13:16:10 <rust_collector> where did it come from, in victoria? When I think of going to australia, I think of nsw
13:16:25 <MrMobodies> I have yet to catch it again
13:16:52 <MrMobodies> well I believe I caught in January last year
13:16:59 <MrMobodies> before it was recognised
13:17:09 <MrMobodies> 6 weeks of hell
13:17:16 <MrMobodies> with constant pressure build up in my head
13:17:17 <Halcyon> Victoria happened because the government were slow to respond to increasing cases and because people were being fuckwits and ignoring the rules
13:17:36 <rust_collector> well, yes, but it had to come from somewhere

13:22:23 <Halcyon> I hate what society has become, apparently being an "Insta model" is a thing
13:22:34 <Halcyon> How does someone who just posts photos of themselves qualify as a model
13:23:22 <Halcyon> It's almost as bad as being an "Influencer"
13:23:23 <rust_collector> how does a bunch of people qualify as a society?
13:24:10 <arch> we live in a society
13:26:37 <coppice> The overused word I loath the most is "community"
13:27:16 <MrMobodies> I have noticed a few overused words over the years
13:27:30 <rust_collector> i have seen stuff about those, in old documentaries.
13:27:46 <MrMobodies> Brexit right up until covid, now covid
13:28:14 <MrMobodies> there was a point where mostly every sentence had the word "brexit" inthere when watching the news
13:28:33 <MrMobodies> but that has passed
13:28:48 <arch> until you brought it up...ironic
13:29:44 <MrMobodies> well now it's covid
13:29:53 <coppice> covid is the most bigoted scum in history. Its racist, sexist, classist, homophobic, and doesn't even like our grannies
13:29:56 <MrMobodies> but now as much used as the other though
13:30:11 <Halcyon> Heh
13:30:18 <MrMobodies> I mean covid
13:30:32 <MrMobodies> I don't see it as much as in every sentence
13:30:43 <MrMobodies> like the brexit word
13:30:57 <rust_collector> I really like it when there has been some kind of disaster, as I can hear about something else for a day or two
13:31:07 <MrMobodies> I think it's peak was in 2018 to mid 2020
13:32:38 <MrMobodies> Insta models Instagram models
13:32:52 <arch> instahoe
13:33:24 <rust_collector> for all the people who like pictures of excavators
13:33:28 <MrMobodies> https://www.google.com/search?q=insta+model&source=lnms&tbm=isch
13:33:49 <MrMobodies> women but no men
13:34:06 <MrMobodies> and some of them do that thing where they wriggle? their bums around and that
13:34:07 <arch> no shit. google gives people what they want
13:34:26 <MrMobodies> it reminds me of when I for mt first digital tv tuner in 2010
13:34:32 <MrMobodies> there were these channels
13:34:56 <arch> if i wanted "male models in underwear", that's exactly what i would put inside google, but i will not, because i'm not gay *glances around*
13:34:58 <MrMobodies> that id see when auto tuning
13:35:16 <MrMobodies> and they'd be these women half clothed also wriggiing their bums around but all night
13:35:31 <MrMobodies> and for £1.50 phone a minute I could talk to then, what a cheek
13:35:36 <arch> hahah
13:35:56 <coppice> the ones who wiggle their bums are the backhoes
13:35:56 <MrMobodies> tey that in public, would i pay to talk to someone because they wriggled their backside to me
13:36:03 <arch> now, they've outsourced that so you can talk to "Sally" all the way out in India
13:36:36 <Halcyon> :P
13:36:58 <MrMobodies> someone laughed at me for that
13:37:04 <MrMobodies> and told me I needed to do so more research
13:37:11 <rust_collector> ELLO! yes mr sir, I wery happy to taLk too yoo
13:37:26 <MrMobodies> so I did and found it started froma program called "the games network"
13:37:30 <MrMobodies> on channel 4
13:37:53 <MrMobodies> it wasn't popular but they had in there and that was popular for some reason so they gave them a channel to do their wriggling
13:38:16 <MrMobodies> but for that to happen there must be a large enough audience
13:40:14 Quit: arch ([email protected]) Connection closed
13:41:06 <MrMobodies> I don't use my tv tuner anymore, apart from the glimps of the news in the lounge
13:41:52 <rust_collector> I don't use my tv any more. well, I sort of do, it keeps the wife over there in the livingroom
13:41:53 <MrMobodies> I only use to see 4 channels until 2 of them put their station logos on the picture
13:42:43 <Halcyon> I actually don't mind the Odysee interface, very clean and simple
13:43:05 <MrMobodies> BBC channel logos "Dogs" digital on screen graphics are part of the digital revolution.... not anymore not with online videos
13:43:07 <rust_collector> we had 3 channels here, but that is just because we live sort of close to sweden, so we got sweden 1 and 2
13:43:14 <MrMobodies> Oh yes
13:43:23 <MrMobodies> I was pleased about that too
13:43:33 <MrMobodies> Odyseey
13:43:46 <MrMobodies> I did hide a few things but not as annoying as the youtube player
13:44:24 <rust_collector> odysee looks ok, but it seems like their speed is a bit up and down. some days, I can not use it, some days it is fine
13:44:54 <rust_collector> trying to find anything there was annoying
13:45:10 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/4Rwr4E9.jpg
13:45:21 <MrMobodies> It does have ONE loading spinner but that's it
13:45:23 <coppice> rust_collector: its probably another victim of rapid expansion in the last few weeks
13:45:26 <MrMobodies> don't often come on
13:45:56 <rust_collector> coppice, but i htink it has been working better in the last weeks, so that has to be a good thing
13:46:02 <MrMobodies> I can pause and play/seek and no play pause animations popping out
13:46:07 <MrMobodies> in the centre
13:46:27 <MrMobodies> I think I hid a few placeholders and it's all good
13:46:51 <Halcyon> rust_collector: Yeh that's the decentalised nature of it
13:47:02 <Halcyon> Seems to work OK for me most of the time, very little buffer time at the moment
13:47:28 <MrMobodies> also it doesn't put dimming overlay stuff when it is paused so it's really good
13:47:45 <MrMobodies> no gradients on the edges
13:48:01 <Halcyon> And no ads (not that I have Youtube ads on my desktop PC)
13:48:18 <rust_collector> the thing that annoyed me, was that I could not just pause it, and let it load, because that just stopped it completely. But I think it will be ok after some time
13:48:37 <MrMobodies> if Youtube bans Dave Jones, I'll stop paying for Premium and donate it to them instead
13:49:05 <MrMobodies> but he needs 3 strikes first
13:49:20 <Halcyon> Which wouldn't be too hard to get
13:49:51 <MrMobodies> I remembered I posted a comment asking about his NAS thing during the move or something like that
13:49:56 <MrMobodies> and i found a video of him showing it
13:50:13 <MrMobodies> then he got in trouble for that and it was an old video
13:50:28 <MrMobodies> so I don't know when I saw the video a bot picked up on it
13:51:00 <MrMobodies> I didn't know it was against their terms and conditions to show people how to download youtube videos which I think was the issue
13:51:24 <Halcyon> Well, largely the reason why youtube-dl is "illegal"
13:51:28 <Halcyon> Which is a load of shit
13:51:28 <MrMobodies> and he couldn't stream for a month or so
13:52:20 <MrMobodies> well there is palemoon which ha sa downloader that seems to do it well
13:52:31 <coppice> sounds like a serious urinary infection
13:53:06 <MrMobodies> ohnonop
13:53:35 <MrMobodies> that was DownloadThemAll and I took it from Firefox 21 and it just happened to work
13:56:04 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/Ky2Letag.jpg
13:56:23 <MrMobodies> and FlashGot
13:56:54 <MrMobodies> actually it gets the file sizes wrong
13:57:00 <MrMobodies> but it download the whole thing
14:00:10 <MrMobodies> yep it still works
14:00:20 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/EKIBYNUg.jpg
14:00:44 <MrMobodies> and it is the correctly file size
14:05:59 Quit: coppice ([email protected]) Quit: Konversation terminated!
14:10:44 <rust_collector> time for more breakfast
14:11:44 <Halcyon> What's for brekky?
14:12:37 <MrMobodies> I like scrambled eggs in a bit of bread every morning
14:12:47 <Halcyon> Yummy
14:12:48 <rust_collector> i had spaghetti and meatballs, and now I have grilled cheese on bread, with half a burger meat in the middle, then a second layer of cheese
14:12:49 <MrMobodies> my mum makes it for me
14:13:01 <Halcyon> MrMobodies, seriously?
14:13:06 <Halcyon> Wait... how old are you?
14:13:10 <MrMobodies> yes
14:13:11 <rust_collector> 75
14:13:22 <MrMobodies> no I am 37
14:13:24 <Halcyon> I meant him, not his mother :P
14:13:28 <MrMobodies> oh
14:13:32 <rust_collector> close enough
14:13:44 <Halcyon> Are you not much of a cook MrMobodies ?
14:13:56 <MrMobodies> my cooking skill are poor
14:14:02 <MrMobodies> my mum does all the cooking
14:14:04 <Halcyon> Aw
14:14:14 <Halcyon> I love cooking, it's my favourite
14:14:18 <MrMobodies> and she tries to cook healthily
14:14:25 <Halcyon> Eggs are healthy
14:14:27 <MrMobodies> with the lowest amounts of sugar and fat
14:14:47 <MrMobodies> I still live at home with my parents
14:15:02 <Halcyon> I think I would go mental if I lived with my mum
14:15:08 <Halcyon> My dad is pretty good, he is chill
14:15:08 <MrMobodies> I can't afford to move out, I could but I don't want to have to claim
14:15:22 <MrMobodies> well I have my own parts of the house
14:15:37 <MrMobodies> we moved to this large the house with a workshop
14:15:42 <Halcyon> Oh nice
14:15:45 <rust_collector> and a food lift, down to the kitchen
14:15:47 <MrMobodies> before I had just the attic and my old bedroom
14:15:50 <Halcyon> Having your own quarters helps a lot
14:16:00 <MrMobodies> I can make as much noise as I want
14:16:09 <MrMobodies> in the other house I couldn't even close a draw
14:16:12 <MrMobodies> without waking them up
14:16:19 <Halcyon> I grew up in a two-storey, 7 bedroom house, but it still felt like my mother was always hovering over me
14:16:20 <MrMobodies> so thingsa got left on the ground
14:16:46 <MrMobodies> did you have cement floors in your 7 bedroom house?
14:16:55 <rust_collector> I guess I sort of live home still, as it is moms house, that I rent. but at least she moved out
14:16:55 <Halcyon> No, wood
14:16:58 <MrMobodies> I know some properties do and a lot better
14:16:59 <MrMobodies> oh
14:17:11 <Halcyon> Well the slab is cement, but wood floors on top of that
14:17:21 <Halcyon> Upstairs was wooden beams
14:17:28 <MrMobodies> I went to a school 200 miles way and that had cement floors
14:17:38 <MrMobodies> and the upstairs too
14:17:53 <Halcyon> Yeh they would have been those pre-fabbed concerete walls and floors?
14:18:03 <Halcyon> Very common in commercial buildings
14:18:11 <MrMobodies> I ccould still hear the people upstairs but not their foot steps
14:18:17 <MrMobodies> which was nice
14:19:17 <MrMobodies> there two buildings, the main school and a holiday resort they converted that also had cement flooring
14:19:32 <MrMobodies> no creeking and it felt homely
14:20:11 <MrMobodies> with where i live now, the workshop is an extension on the size of thre house which also has bedrooms above
14:20:33 <MrMobodies> with the cavity wall in the muddle I don't here that loud music my dad plays anymore
14:20:56 <MrMobodies> so it was a good move I think
14:21:19 <MrMobodies> there are some things on my walls
14:21:27 <MrMobodies> strange looking things that I never seen before
14:21:33 <rust_collector> I have a "silent" room downstairs. it is pretty...quiet
14:22:59 <MrMobodies> https://imgur.com/a/3wnInv5
14:23:12 <MrMobodies> they are hollow when I tap them
14:23:47 <rust_collector> I am 13% sure it is space for the roof beams
14:24:21 <MrMobodies> the extension's roof is a bit lower than the rest of house
14:24:30 <MrMobodies> maybe it had to come down a bit and they put that cover on it
14:28:38 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Retweet: Some team of engineers (and others) actually held a meeting and came to the conclusion that this was the best solution. I wonder how many engineers bit their tounge... :Which was quoting: Tube Time: cursed connector. it's like PS/2 keyboard connecter but the pins all migrated randomly to one side. https://t.co/pKGnebGPGc
14:29:04 <Halcyon> Heh: https://youtu.be/39fC1EzAhbQ?t=387
14:29:09 <rust_collector> I htink I asked about this before, but do you have a water tank in the attic?
14:29:16 <Halcyon> That would scare the crap out of you
14:32:06 <rust_collector> you should wake up
14:37:03 <MrMobodies> I have some enormous ones that the previous occupants put in
14:37:16 <MrMobodies> one for the hot water and the other for the central heating
14:37:31 <MrMobodies> a date code 2015 but guess what they didn't put a cover over it
14:37:53 <MrMobodies> so we had pump it out I still have to find one or even building something
14:38:22 <MrMobodies> there was bits and sand in the water when I first moved
14:38:23 <rust_collector> but it is a pressure tank, not a water "bucket"?
14:38:33 <MrMobodies> there is one a red thing in the middle
14:38:35 <rust_collector> oh
14:38:39 <MrMobodies> I'll some pictures tomorrow
14:39:12 <MrMobodies> rather than hook my electric shower too the tank with a limit/regulator they connected it to the tap feeding the tank
14:39:22 <MrMobodies> using plastic pipes as well
14:39:38 <rust_collector> I think I saw something about english houses having ie a "bucket" of water in the attic, sort of like the tank on a toilet
14:39:58 <MrMobodies> oh yes the long flush type cisterns
14:40:13 <MrMobodies> that were high up onth ewall
14:40:20 <rust_collector> yes, but for the whole house
14:40:54 <MrMobodies> https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fc8.alamy.com%2Fcomp%2FGME84F%2Fold-fashioned-toilet-cistern-swindon-railway-works-england-GME84F.jpg&f=1&nofb=1
14:40:57 <MrMobodies> oh
14:41:25 <MrMobodies> maybe a system I have to discover
14:42:03 <rust_collector> I thought it was a weird idea, but I believe it was used a bit in england, probably not any more
14:51:30 <MrMobodies> I don't know if it has anything to do with this

14:56:52 <MrMobodies> Okay... that looks promising
14:57:19 <MrMobodies> a few little niggles but not too bad
14:57:55 <MrMobodies> I think that is KDE5
14:58:24 <rust_collector> no, it was plasma desktop, which yes, is "kde5"
14:59:19 <MrMobodies> aah plasma that I put in the .Xinitrc
14:59:47 <rust_collector> do you need an .Xinitrc in that?

15:03:21 <rust_collector> ok, do you have a login manager thing?. if you only use startx, then yes, you need it
15:03:34 <MrMobodies> yep

15:03:48 <MrMobodies> just went to the greeter
15:05:12 <rust_collector> oh well, whatever works
15:05:22 <MrMobodies> I think I found what I am looking for that and the WindowMaker
15:05:43 <MrMobodies> I had difficulties in the past trying to get that KDE installed but seems like it was worth it
15:05:53 <MrMobodies> thanks to all of you for helping
15:07:08 <MrMobodies> I sometimes smile when things go well like right now and it's not often that happens.
15:07:11 <rust_collector> kde or windowmaker. that is a bit... here and there, lol
15:07:25 <MrMobodies> I am going to try and run both
15:07:33 <MrMobodies> on separate virtual machines
15:07:47 <MrMobodies> each will have purpose
15:08:01 <MrMobodies> depends on what I can do with them and i am sure
15:08:14 <MrMobodies> I like the calculator the comes with Windowmaker
15:08:32 <MrMobodies> reminds me a bit like Derive from Texas Instruments
15:08:52 <rust_collector> windowmaker comes with a calculator?
15:08:54 <MrMobodies> nice plain window full of room for calculations

15:13:23 <rust_collector> oh, bc
15:13:27 <MrMobodies> Hey, if you want to have a play around with it, I can connect you to the KVM unit
15:13:37 <MrMobodies> can take 2 remote users
15:14:06 <rust_collector> meh. I am almost on my way to bed. If I manage to wake up tomorrow, maybe?

15:14:35 <MrMobodies> Its a HP af601a and they still have the viewer which has a built in version on Java runtime
15:15:29 <rust_collector> https://linux.die.net/man/1/bc
15:16:50 <rust_collector> do you have xeyes installed?
15:20:35 <MrMobodies> nope I'll take a look
15:20:36 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/0mr3iKL.jpg
15:20:45 <MrMobodies> I have two af601's
15:21:08 <MrMobodies> some vga spliiters and three remote donglkes so three people can control it
15:22:40 <MrMobodies> yep installed
15:22:49 <MrMobodies> only 10kb in sixe of xeyes
15:23:00 <rust_collector> have you tried it?
15:24:16 <MrMobodies> A remote mouse thing?
15:24:18 <MrMobodies> I haven't yet
15:24:33 <rust_collector> no, well, sort of, maybe
15:24:42 <MrMobodies> no
15:24:52 <rust_collector> just type xeyes in a terminal, and it is up and running
15:25:07 <rust_collector> then just ctrl-c to kill it
15:25:29 <MrMobodies> okay a box with eyes that follow the cursor
15:25:49 <rust_collector> this is real unix fun, right?
15:25:58 <MrMobodies> yes
15:26:09 <rust_collector> oh
15:26:10 <MrMobodies> you are showing me things and they work
15:27:21 <MrMobodies> nobody has ever shown me things like this not in about 20 years I had to find out myself and struggle
15:27:34 <rust_collector> well, sure. I just think xeyes is one of the least useful things, but it is for some reason "always" installed when you install x
15:27:58 <rust_collector> you also have xcalc, and xclock
15:28:00 <MrMobodies> aah so it was suppose to be including with Xorg
15:28:06 <rust_collector> yes
15:28:38 <rust_collector> if you install x, you tend to get twm, window manager, and some little things like that
15:29:21 <rust_collector> maybe you should try twm, it is a bit weird to get into, but it is not a bad window manager. it has almost no features
15:29:49 <rust_collector> not hard to get into, but hard to get used to, if you are used to normal things
15:31:15 <MrMobodies> yes some things are not in the menu
15:31:24 <MrMobodies> but can be launched from the command line like xterm
15:32:09 <rust_collector> I think it usually has a key binding. maybe alt+enter, or something like that
15:33:23 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/QyrRYDHg.jpg
15:33:40 <MrMobodies> alt enter goes to full screen for the console
15:33:49 <rust_collector> ok
15:34:14 <MrMobodies> going to make some time in rejoice
15:34:20 <MrMobodies> oops *tea
15:34:25 <rust_collector> well, I am going to bed. have fun
15:34:32 <MrMobodies> okay good night
15:34:40 <MrMobodies> thanks for helping me
15:35:08 <rust_collector> no problem, I just hope I am not just confusing you
15:38:47 <MrMobodies> not at all

23:08:52 <rust_collector> well, have fun with your testing
23:09:23 <rust_collector> I still wonder when you plan on grilling things on the beach again
23:21:07 <hsn> rust_collector, its not bad idea i've to talk to family and arrange that again
23:21:27 <rust_collector> I thin kit is a thing you need to do every few months
23:21:32 <hsn> we did few beach grills .. maybe 4-5 .. but non since 2021
23:22:41 <hsn> so i ll whatsapp the family to arrange one prolly next weak or the one after .. just need to check my covid result first :P
23:23:14 <rust_collector> that is a thing
23:23:54 <rust_collector> I still think it was interesting to see your bamboo coal
23:27:08 <hsn> hah
23:27:19 <hsn> do i still have that thing
23:27:48 <hsn> it was hard to "light it up" and also when its burning its doesnt shrink ..
23:27:51 <hsn> kept for hours
23:33:59 * steve30 should get some 18650 holders
23:34:21 <rust_collector> yes, he should
23:35:16 <rust_collector> jUsT3dPriNt Some

23:35:54 <rust_collector> good boy!
23:36:04 <rust_collector> keep it that way. they are evil
