11:56 <rust_collector> well, I have had the top of car batteries wrapped around my face before, I would not say it is ideal
12:16 <Ysjoelfir> I agree, that doesn't sound ideal
13:27 <rust_collector> so. today
13:31 <rust_collector> it is
13:32 <rust_collector> now
14:57 <rust_collector> I just read an article explaining the difference between cocoa and cacao, and I already forgot. and I know it is a thing I will never learn
15:21 <Ysjoelfir> there is a difference?
15:46 <T3sl4> cocoa is the prepared powder, cacao is the plant..?
16:40 <Ysjoelfir> also rusty, I managed to get the taper out of there, "shrink in" the new one and cut it to size. works great, now i have a tiny chuck for the lathe. :)
16:44 <rust_collector> no, both are powder, but one of them is the other, just with the fat removed
17:14 <rust_collector> yaay! tiny chuck!
17:31 <Ysjoelfir> well, adequate for the lathe^^ its 0-8mm I think
17:53 <rust_collector> You should probably find a nice cheap albrecht
18:10 <rust_collector> 8mm, well, I guess.
18:18 * Ampera chucks a tiny norris at Ysjoelfir 
19:52 <rust_collector> small norrises are annoying
23:00 Quit: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) Connection closed
23:26 <T3sl4> and slow lorises are freaky
24:29 <rust_collector> uhm, yes
59:34 <electrohead> o/
59:39 * Ampera kisses electrohead 
59:43 <electrohead> no
59:48 * Ampera punches electrohead 
59:56 * electrohead fights back

51:29 <hsn> lol
51:36 <hsn> should apply ? https://snipboard.io/zGbiMy.jpg
52:14 <rust_collector> yes
58:16 <rust_collector> hsn, you need to define what persian bread is....
58:58 <hsn> rust_collector, its bread from persia
59:09 <rust_collector> ok, so any kinds will do
59:11 <hsn> :P
59:21 <hsn> rust_collector, well i put it in picture
59:24 <hsn> not enough ?

02:30 <hsn> rust_collector, looks like it
04:34 <rust_collector> but that is thin, the ones you linked to are THICK

07:10 <hsn> hey T3sl4
07:10 <rust_collector> hsn, do you have cream rolls some times?
07:19 <hsn> cream rolls ?
07:29 <hsn> which one i linked it thick rust_collector
08:18 <rust_collector> the wikipedia tandoor bread. that is pretty thick, if you compare to the one in the video
08:33 <hsn> this bread it self without the cream inside i have it sometimes rust_collector https://images.app.goo.gl/s6sPTNuduQbARAQ58
08:48 <rust_collector> nice
09:39 <hsn> the one in video u linked .. is little different
10:01 <hsn> the one in wiki i linked (they have different thicknesses depending on the guy who squeeze them)

22:18 <Nothing\> omfg what a day yesterday was
22:28 <Nothing\> got myself a bowel impaction
22:30 <hsn> Nothing\, friday
22:43 <Nothing\> hands down the most painful thing i've ever experienced, i was actually in tears from the pain
22:58 <Nothing\> i've never been in tears from pain. At least as an adult. And I've been through some painful things.
23:33 <Nothing\> luckily i was finally able to go once my laxatives i took in the morning kicked in. But I was minutes from resorting to an enema
24:03 <Nothing\> it's like my body was all "oh hell, he's going for the enema! Let's get this out NOW"
25:01 <Nothing\> and when the impaction did come out, that was another of the most painful moments of my life. Definitely in the top 10 at least
25:45 <Nothing\> so i think from here on out, more regular exercise, more greens, more water and more laxatives
26:14 <Nothing\> and less junk food like frozen dinners
27:18 <hsn> https://youtu.be/6yWy0eHLPLs <-- we got a proffesor here
28:06 <Nothing\> huh
28:25 <Nothing\> that's like the one non-english language where they don't call capacitors uh... shit brain fart
28:30 <Nothing\> condensors
28:43 <Nothing\> usually in other languages it's some variation on the word condensor
29:08 <Nothing\> which, i always wondered why they chose that name initially, what are they condensing? Charge?
30:33 <Nothing\> btw, this site is cool as hell
30:34 <Nothing\> https://flightaware.com/live/map
31:24 <Nothing\> lets you see where planes are flying in real time, even gives info like speed and altitude, tail number, company if it's not private and other goodies
32:03 <Nothing\> i tracked an emergency helicopter the other day i saw flying overhead as it was making its way to an airport in a nearby city about halfway to toronto
32:09 <hsn> ah flight tracker ?
32:29 <Nothing\> yup, and you can even enter flight numbers somewhere on the site to track specific flights
32:48 <hsn> where they get all the flight data from
33:15 <hsn> can they show falling flight live ?
33:28 <Nothing\> i'm not sure. I'd imagine air traffic control or the instruments on the actual plane
33:59 <Nothing\> hsn: well, i watched the speed and altitude of the helicopter going down as it was landing so i would imagine you would
34:15 <hsn> i think its not that live
34:21 <Nothing\> you can even see a graph that shows the airspeed and altitude over time since its departure
34:23 <hsn> as some flights are clashing each other
34:29 <Nothing\> probably not 100% live, no
34:46 <Nothing\> i know there is a bit of a delay, at least with the airspeed and altitude data
35:02 <Nothing\> but i'd say it's no more than a couple of minutes
35:08 <hsn> i mean .. like 1H delay .. or worse
35:34 <Nothing\> nah not that bad
35:39 <hsn> if its minutes i think the planes in the map would be much less ? or less clashing ?
35:43 <Nothing\> at least not with the ones i've looked at
36:06 <Nothing\> hsn: well they fly at different altitudes, so one can fly over another
36:20 <Nothing\> plus if you zoom in more, you can see better that they're not so clumped up together
36:21 <hsn> oh there is that ?
36:39 <hsn> i mean they do that ?
36:59 <Nothing\> oh yeah, as long as there's enough distance between them
37:37 <hsn> and that would be different "airbus models" or just the pilot/flight control ppl choose
37:58 <hsn> i thought they dont even do the altitude .. just go to different route // or // time
38:07 <Nothing\> part pilot, part flight control people
38:26 <hsn> so there is possiblity that pilots can see each other in sky ? :)
38:30 <Nothing\> the pilot submits a flight plan, which air traffic control reviews and then makes any recommendations or changes if need be
39:07 <Nothing\> hsn: absolutely they can, there's a type of flying called VFR or visual flight rules where you navigate and avoid other planes purely by sight rather than using instrumentation
39:33 <Nothing\> well, i'm sure the navigation uses SOME instrumentation like the compass
40:17 <Nothing\> but it's not like those fancy Instrument Flight Rules flights where they can be in complete 0 visibility and still have their bearings and be aware of other planes around them and such
41:00 <Nothing\> there are a actually a couple of good channels where pilots answer stuff like this, I think you'd enjoy them. Lemme get the links
41:26 <Nothing\> https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC88tlMjiS7kf8uhPWyBTn_A
41:30 <Nothing\> there's captain joe
41:54 <Nothing\> and i'm trying to remember the name of the other one. gotta go through my subscriptions to find it
42:43 <Nothing\> here it is! 74 crew
42:44 <Nothing\> https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCovVc-qqwYp8oqwO3Sdzx7w
42:53 <Nothing\> hosted by a 747 pilot
43:21 <hsn> there is channel for everything hah
43:42 <Nothing\> personally I like this channel better than captain joe. It's a bit more "real" like he talks about the various exploits that pilots and other flight crew get into behind the scenes
43:47 <Ysjoelfir> EEVBlog convert 15 inch to cm
43:48 <EEVBlog> The result is: 38.1 cm
43:50 <Nothing\> like pilots getting into trouble in their hotels
44:28 <Nothing\> where captain joe is a slightly more technical take on the subject
44:51 <Nothing\> but not too technical, it's a good mix of technical and entertaining without having to dumb anything down
45:27 <Nothing\> and i haven't actually watched these for a while, so i think i'll watch some while i eat my breakfast eggs
45:35 <Nothing\> hope you enjoy them, too hsn
49:54 <hsn> i enjoy few non tech channels but i try to coupe with tech only .. as im allready low :P
49:58 <hsn> https://youtu.be/wvqyIr-4jBk
55:40 <hsn> haha this indian lady is angry makes me laugh
55:45 <hsn> https://youtu.be/wvqyIr-4jBk?t=778
13:36 <Nothing\> lol hsn
13:39 <Nothing\> check this one out
13:40 <Nothing\> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfOQsOOyRmw
13:48 <Nothing\> how to infuriate telemarketers with 1 word
14:01 <hsn> lol
14:11 <hsn> i just saw the :first yes
14:16 <hsn> and know where this is going
16:29 <hsn> "You're also a moron?"
16:30 <hsn> Painful silence ..yes
17:18 Quit: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) Quit: Verlassend
17:41 <Nothing\> lol yeah that was great
17:52 <Nothing\> ah, just bought a micrometer and a set of feeler gauges
18:07 <Nothing\> not a bad price either, $62 plus 13% tax for the lot
18:57 <Nothing\> it sucks, a lot of the vernier calipers they had came with free sets of feeler gauges, but I had to order these separate from my micrometer
21:12 <rust_collector> wth would you get feeler gauges with a micrometer? or calipers, I guess.
21:41 <Nothing\> rust_collector, being that they're a set thickness i figured i could use it test the accuracy
22:10 <Nothing\> plus i can use it for other things as well, of course
22:43 <Nothing\> not rightly sure what, yet. But I'm sure i'll find other uses
23:28 <rust_collector> sure, but having the two bundled makes little sense to me. they are two very different tools.
24:31 <Nothing\> i got this really nice pocket microscope last week. Usually pocket microscopes are shit quality but this thing's got smooth movement on the focus and magnification settings, a nice clear image even at the highest magnification, and it goes up to 120x, where every other pocket microscope i've had only did up to 80x or 100x
25:02 <rust_collector> pocket microscope, do you have a pic?
25:24 <Nothing\> rust_collector, what are feeler gauges usually used for? I just assumed with them being bundled like that they were for measuring the accuracy of and calibrating micrometers and vernier calipers and such
25:32 <Nothing\> rust_collector, i'll dig up the listing
25:48 <Nothing\> https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00LAX52IQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
25:51 <Nothing\> there you are
26:04 <Nothing\> and you can tell just by holding it, it's built a lot more sturdy than others
26:19 <Nothing\> it's actually got some gravitas to it as aVe would say
27:03 <rust_collector> well, they are used to measure clearances, back in prehistory, you would usually use them to set ignition points, and valve clearances. but they are in a different category than a micrometer,as they rely much more on feel
27:09 <Nothing\> of course though, that's the canadian version of amazon. So you might wanna try looking it up on the american site if you're interested in buying it.
27:33 <Nothing\> rust_collector, makes sense
27:53 <Nothing\> one of the pictures it showed seemed to be in some automotive context
28:04 <rust_collector> nah, shipping from america makes this probbaly more expensive than buying a leica or something over here
28:21 <Nothing\> oh, you're not a yank?
28:24 <rust_collector> yes, I think most of the time, it is a car sort of tool
28:30 <Nothing\> i can never keep track of who's from where here
28:31 <rust_collector> not exactly
28:47 <Nothing\> it's a lot more diverse than the other servers i've been on, which were like 99% yanks
29:00 <rust_collector> i live up in canada, just across the ocean, and on the other side of greenland
29:16 <Nothing\> ah i see
29:19 <Nothing\> so in iceland
29:21 <Nothing\> lol
29:47 <rust_collector> I like to say ON iceland, because icelanders really does not like that
30:02 <Nothing\> heh
30:37 <Nothing\> actually you know what
30:52 <rust_collector> well, yes I do
30:53 <Nothing\> i could just use a coin to test the accuracy of a micrometer, couldn't i?
31:04 <rust_collector> uh
31:11 <rust_collector> how?
31:22 <Nothing\> i mean, if i know the thickness of the coin, which can be looked up pretty easily, then i know what it should read
31:38 <Nothing\> or the width
32:06 <rust_collector> no, because a micrometer is a precision-ish device, coins are not really, and they are also worn from handling
32:19 <Nothing\> good point
32:35 <Nothing\> although newly minted coins wouldn't have much, if any wear
32:39 <rust_collector> you would use a standard, or a gauge block
32:47 <Nothing\> ah okay
32:53 <Nothing\> well, gauge blocks are expensive
32:54 <rust_collector> but they are still not ultra precise
33:04 <rust_collector> yes, because they ARE precise
33:07 <Nothing\> yeah, i can see gauge blocks changing depending on the temperature
33:30 <rust_collector> yes, same as your micrometer
33:36 <rust_collector> and everything else
34:21 <Nothing\> yeah i had a scale that was accurate to 1mg and once summer came around and it was suddenly 10c warmer in here and a lot more humid, the scale lost its precision
34:23 <rust_collector> that is one of the things when you use a micrometer, you should not handle them much, because your heat will bend them
34:42 <Nothing\> i checked it on a 20g weight and it came out to like 20.04
34:44 <rust_collector> make your measurement, then put them aside
34:49 <Nothing\> where when i bought it, it was 20 dead on
35:23 <Nothing\> rust_collector, seems you could insulate your hands with gloves or something
35:35 <rust_collector> yes
36:11 <rust_collector> you should, if you do actual precision work. but.. meh. just don't put it on a lamp or something
36:27 <Nothing\> yeah i don't think i'll be doing any actual precision work here
36:47 <Nothing\> frankly i just bought the micrometer for the sake of measuring various objects out of curiosity
36:52 <Nothing\> my penis, for one
36:56 <Nothing\> :P
37:10 <rust_collector> even most micrometers are not really super-precise, they are better than calipers, but... yeah
37:17 <Nothing\> that, and my calipers are crap
37:30 <Nothing\> they're made of some sort of carbon plastic or whatever
37:39 <rust_collector> mmhmm.
37:42 <Nothing\> but as a result, they'll twist and the jaws won't come together flush
38:06 <rust_collector> what? what would twist them?
38:11 <Nothing\> anything
38:15 <Nothing\> they're plastic
38:19 <rust_collector> yes?
38:30 <Nothing\> yeah so it twists real easy
38:37 <Nothing\> just from regular handling
38:50 <rust_collector> sure, but they are micrometers, not fucking c clamps
38:55 <Nothing\> i don't mean a whole lot of twist, but enough to throw off the measurements
39:05 <Nothing\> no no, this is my vernier calipers
39:42 <rust_collector> as long as they are calibrated, it is not an issue, but you do have to use the same pressure every time
39:55 <Nothing\> i have a solid steel one from my grandfather, but it's only imperial and not digital, so it's really hard to read the measurement
40:10 <rust_collector> you can easily skew the measurement by a lot, just from slight thumb pressure
40:26 <Nothing\> yeah i noticed with calipers it can squeeze the object, or even the plastic jaws a bit
40:44 <rust_collector> well, you can on a steel one as well
41:10 <Nothing\> yeha i could see a steel set squeezing the object being measured a lot more
41:23 <rust_collector> they bend
41:28 <Nothing\> i always try to use gentle pressure
41:44 <Nothing\> enough to get flush contact, but no more
41:50 <rust_collector> right
42:15 <Nothing\> micrometers have a sort of ratchet mechanism, don't they?
42:18 <rust_collector> but calipers are just a quick ballpark sort of tool. so it should be fine
42:56 <rust_collector> good micrometers usually have a "clutch", so when you are at the correct oomph, they let go
43:06 <Nothing\> yeah that's one reason i wanted the micrometer, cuz they're accurate to 0.001mm where my calipers are only accurate to 0.02mm
44:39 <Nothing\> come to think of it, wouldn't fluctuations in room temperature affect measurements that fine as well?
44:45 <rust_collector> yep
45:08 <Nothing\> i figured that, i mean if it can affect a milligram scale it's probably the same deal
45:21 <Nothing\> but i've pretty much decided that scale's garbage now
45:28 <Nothing\> there's no way to calibrate it and it's way off
45:39 <Nothing\> like i'll put a sample on it, it gives the weight
45:49 <Nothing\> then when i add to the sample, it doesn't register any weight change
46:04 <rust_collector> heh
46:05 <Nothing\> unless i add a significant amount of weight, like 50-100mg
46:13 <Nothing\> where i'm trying to measure 15mg
46:47 <rust_collector> but does it show 15mg more, if you add that, and poke it with your finger?
47:32 <Nothing\> not that i've noticed. but i'm not 100% if i tried that or not
47:45 <Nothing\> i was working with pure drugs so i didn't want to touch it too much
48:10 <Nothing\> nothing abusable, just noopept which is supposed to help with memory and cognition and such
48:22 <Nothing\> they even sell it in russia as a prescription, i think for dementia
48:42 <Nothing\> part of a group of drugs called nootropics, or "smart drugs"
49:02 <Nothing\> pretty interesting class as far as the potential goes
49:58 <Nothing\> when i did take it on a regular basis i was just learning piano and i found it actually did help a bit in learning it. But not a huge amount.
51:41 <Nothing\> i remember maybe 20 years ago reading in scientific american about a group of nootropics called ampakines that will apparently allow you to stay awake for days at a time while still staying alert and functional, but without the psychosis and heart problems and intoxication of amphetamines
51:49 <Nothing\> i thought that was really cool
52:11 <rust_collector> I have no idea of how you would measure if it did help in piano playing....
52:16 <Nothing\> there's one my old friends were always buying called modafinil that does the same thing
52:29 <Nothing\> rust_collector, yeah i mean it coulda been a fluke for all i know
52:55 <Nothing\> i'm just saying, qualitatively, it seemed to help a bit
52:55 <rust_collector> or maybe t was just that you spent time learning to play... so it would be tricky
53:13 * Ampera hugs Nothing\ 
53:14 <Nothing\> yeah and it's not like you could really have a control
53:19 * Nothing\ hugs Ampera 
53:24 <rust_collector> mmhmm
53:26 <Nothing\> heya buddy, how you doing?
53:27 <Ampera> how are you doing Nothing\
53:33 <Nothing\> better, today
53:37 <Nothing\> i was in the hospital yesterday
53:41 <Ampera> alright, going to go to a pp clinic soon to restart HRT
53:42 <Ampera> nice
53:42 <Nothing\> bowel impaction
53:45 <Ampera> nice
54:08 <Nothing\> it was hands down the worst pain i've ever experienced. I was actually in tears. Which I've never had pain cause me to be in tears as an adult.
54:19 <Ampera> nice
54:35 <Nothing\> but luckily i was able to pass the impaction before i had to use the enema they sent me home with
54:41 <Ampera> nice
54:59 <Nothing\> but that was excruciating as well
55:02 <Ampera> nice
55:15 <Nothing\> i actually screamed in pain cuz it hurt so much coming out. Thought I tore myself or something.
55:20 <Ampera> nice
55:25 <Nothing\> lol indeed
55:50 <rust_collector> keep it blocked out, so you will have more room the next time
55:56 <Nothing\> but yeah, i'm feeling a lot better today after that, and another BM after that. But the doc says I need to take a lot more laxatives and just clear myself right out.
56:25 <Nothing\> rust_collector, heh i think my intestines have been stretched as much as they're gonna go
56:41 <Nothing\> Ampera, in unrelated news, i just bought a micrometer
56:43 <rust_collector> nah. you can do more. it just takes time
56:49 <Ampera> nice
56:51 <Nothing\> accurate to 0.001mm
57:11 <Ampera> isn't that the definition of a micrometer?
57:17 <rust_collector> hah
57:22 <Nothing\> lol you would think so
57:36 <Nothing\> i was actually just thinking the same thing
57:54 <Nothing\> and i got a really nice pocket microscope
58:22 <rust_collector> that one actually look sort of nice
58:50 <Nothing\> all of the ones i bought before were so cheap feeling, but this thing feels nice and solid. Smooth action on the knobs, clear image, and goes up to 120x magnification.
59:11 <Nothing\> rust_collector, yeah compared to what you usually get for pocket microscopes, this thing is great.
59:52 <Ampera> my saltpeter comes in today
00:28 <Nothing\> rust_collector, here's the one i had before
00:30 <Nothing\> https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32602476781.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dhHornM

00:51 <Ampera> someone is frying bacon
00:54 <Ampera> and IT'S PISSING ME OFF
01:10 <rust_collector> well, stop frying bacon?
01:13 <Nothing\> and that's pretty much the same sort I'd always get. I've had probably 2 or 3 different ones over the yeras
01:16 <Ampera> I'm not, rust_collector
01:23 <Nothing\> Ampera, lol you sound like my dad
01:28 <Ampera> uh oh
01:31 <Nothing\> he used to get so pissed off any time somebody made popcorn
01:40 <Nothing\> he hated smells
01:40 <rust_collector> heh. someone else is cooking? that has to be annoying
01:42 <Ampera> no
01:46 <Ampera> I love the smell
01:49 <Ampera> it makes me want to eat
01:54 <Nothing\> ahh lol
01:55 <Ampera> but I'm going out to eat later today
02:03 <Ampera> so if I eat now I'll be full then
02:50 <rust_collector> I put a bunch of baking powder on the chicken today. it turned out nice enough. But I have to try it again, to see if it was that or just random good chicken
05:18 <Ampera> Biden apparently has declared that all vehicles owned/operated by the US government will be replaced by American made electric vehicles
05:40 <rust_collector> heh, by when?
05:59 <Ampera> Article doesn't appear to say
06:30 <rust_collector> well, good luck to him, I guess
06:42 <Ampera> it's gonna be one of those things where one administration comes up with the idea, starts on implementing it, falls out of power, someone else comes, and axes it
07:18 <Ampera> I can see the pattern like I'm wearing tartan shades.
07:28 <rust_collector> Unless I missed something, they should find a way to get reliable electricity to most areas, before he tries that

37:26 <rust_collector> it "just works"
37:37 <rust_collector> 18 hours of surgery

38:22 <rust_collector> ok
38:28 <Nothing\> like, you'd expect it to be sorta like sleeping
38:40 <Nothing\> but it's much deeper than that. It's literally just non-existance
38:49 <Nothing\> like you blink, and it's over
39:09 <Nothing\> no concept of time or anything
39:37 <Nothing\> it's kinda interesting. Sorta what I expect death to be like. Only without the waking up later.

28:21 <Ampera> no
28:27 <Lord_of_nothing> hi everyone
28:31 <Ampera> planned parenthood is the name of the clinic

42:54 <rust_collector> nah
42:57 <hsn> in ur link
42:58 <hsn> Researchers have also suggested that red wine, in particular, might protect the heart, thanks to the antioxidants it contains.
43:15 <hsn> thats only because red wine look like pomogranate juice .. nothing more :)
43:36 <rust_collector> i really really do not care, lol
43:57 <hsn> oh :(
44:00 <hsn> please care
44:21 <rust_collector> squirrel hunting is also very good for the heart, feel free to prove me wrong
44:42 <hsn> can i feel free to not prove u anything ?
45:27 <rust_collector> well, ok
45:34 <hsn> escaping from pomogrenades is also good for heart
45:43 <rust_collector> hat is true
55:30 <Lord_of_nothing> well i like to eat banas
59:45 <Ampera> I eat very many spuds
59:52 <Ampera> they taste yes
00:56 <Nothing\> hey rust_collector
01:05 <Nothing\> are you familiar with vectors and complex numbers?
01:16 <rust_collector> no
01:20 <Nothing\> ah
01:22 <hsn> ew
01:31 <rust_collector> I am not mathish
01:43 <Nothing\> i was always under the impression that vectors WERE complex numbers, but my calculator treats them very different
01:50 <hsn> but u r familier with complex right ?
02:09 * Ampera hugs Nothing\
02:16 <Nothing\> at least when the complex number is in polar form
02:25 * Nothing\ hugs Ampera <3 <3 <3
02:37 <Ampera> currently at the pp clinic
02:47 <hsn> pee pee
02:51 <Nothing\> oh yeah? gl with that
02:56 <Ampera> nice
03:01 <Nothing\> i hope you get what you need out of it
03:11 <Ampera> I hope I don't die too
03:17 <hsn> i hope u get out with 1 kid
03:29 <Ampera> hsn, if I do, I'll sell him to you
03:38 <rust_collector> cheap
03:41 <hsn> thanks .. for -1M $ ?
03:47 <Ampera> packed in ice, sent via diplomatic mail
03:56 <Ampera> for free
03:58 <Ampera> as a gift
04:06 <hsn> i only buy with negative money these days
04:19 <Ampera> that's a strategy that can pay big
04:42 <hsn> cool
04:54 <hsn> name him ali before u send him
05:29 <Ampera> no problem
05:34 <rust_collector> ali from bali
05:43 <Ampera> do you want catsup with that?
06:10 <hsn> catchup ?
06:26 <hsn> ie blood ?
06:48 <hsn> https://images.app.goo.gl/mMtiFPsXsLuTYGdEA
07:19 <Ampera> I just forgot, these people will want a urine sample....
07:35 <Ampera> I should have come needing to piss
07:41 <hsn> it a pee pee !
07:44 <hsn> how u forget
08:51 <rust_collector> if you have a tiny bit of baby food in the glass, they will get some very strange readings
11:13 <Nothing\> Ampera, just poop in the cup instead
11:18 <Nothing\> it's just as good
11:40 <Nothing\> lol i did that in the mental health ward once
11:49 <Nothing\> first, it is really hard to do that without making a mess
12:01 <Nothing\> second, they took away basically all of my privileges for a week
12:14 <Nothing\> they were not impressed
12:16 <Ampera> lol
12:32 <Nothing\> and gave me a lecture about bacteria and cleanliness and what not
12:34 <Ampera> Nah, I'm just gonna have to squeeze hard, again
12:44 <Ampera> they don't need much, thankfully
12:52 <Nothing\> Ampera, shy bladder?
13:12 <Ampera> no
13:15 <Ampera> lack of urine
13:25 <Nothing\> ah you're lucky in that case
13:34 <Ampera> how so
14:11 <Nothing\> between my urinary retention and having a shy bladder it's pretty well impossible to piss for a urine sample unless i hold my breath until my body's panicking for air
14:30 <Nothing\> and before i learned that technique, i needed more catheters than i can count
14:53 <Ampera> In other news, I now get to wait to see how long /they'll/ be late in my appointment
15:09 <Nothing\> oh yeah that's always fun
15:29 <Ampera> five minutes past the time so far
15:30 <Nothing\> like my pp clinic where they open at 9, but the doctor doesn't show up until 9:45
15:39 <Nothing\> even though he's supposed to be there when they open
15:51 <Nothing\> then he's out for coffee before 11
15:55 <Ampera> they made me wait maybe an hour past the time last time
15:58 <rust_collector> Ampera, s there anyone else waiting there?
16:05 <Nothing\> take him a good 45 minutes cuz he likes to go to starbucks
16:11 <Ampera> rust_collector, couple people it seems
17:00 <rust_collector> ok, tell them stories. if you do that enough, a few times, they will send you straight in the next time
17:04 <Nothing\> anyways i'm nodding off so i think i'll play some gta v to wake myself up
17:12 <Nothing\> still waiting until i finish story mode to try gta online
17:29 <Ampera> have fun
17:37 <Ampera> don't die yourself
17:45 <Nothing\> lol i'll try
18:21 <Nothing\> that reminds me, now that i've stopped smoking pot and have a couple hundred bucks of disposable income each month, i was thinking of saving up for a VR headset
18:40 <Nothing\> are occulus rifts still the gold standard? or has something else come along that's better?
19:43 <rust_collector> the non-virtual ones are pretty good
19:48 <Ampera> nope
19:54 <Ampera> oculus rifts are terrible
20:02 <Ampera> they force you to maintain a facebook account
20:22 <Ampera> Get an HTC vive or windows mixed reality headset
23:44 <Nothing\> alright, i'll keep those in mind
23:47 <Nothing\> thanks man
23:53 <Nothing\> now, on to gta
25:04 <Nothing\> holy shit
25:13 <Nothing\> $1700 for an HTC Vive kit
25:22 <Nothing\> i could get another computer for that
25:54 <rust_collector> but that would not give you a vr headset
26:16 <Nothing\> indeed
26:20 <rust_collector> You could also buy a small older tractor for $1700
27:46 <Ampera> Nothing\, you're looking at the wrong one
28:02 <Ampera> the HTC Vive has been discontinued, get it second hand
28:25 <Nothing\> https://www.amazon.ca/HTC-Virtual-Reality-System-Tracker/dp/B0748ZY323/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=htc+vive&qid=1612034885&sr=8-3
28:27 <Ampera> heck, if you're willing to wait a while, I'll sell mine to you when I get an Index
28:27 <Nothing\> this one?
28:30 <Ampera> no
28:45 <Ampera> You'll need to get it off ebay
29:09 <Nothing\> ah well ebay's a no-go for me
29:21 <Ampera> or some second hand retailer
29:37 <Ampera> if you need new, the valve index or vive pro is probably your best bet
29:42 <Nothing\> ah well i've got some time to research and decide
29:43 <Ampera> or windows mixed reality
30:05 <Ampera> or, just ask me when you plan to buy, and I'll consider selling you mine
30:38 <Nothing\> will do
30:42 <Nothing\> alright, on to gta

10:23 <hsn> How does that feel
15:05 <rust_collector> cat?
38:40 <hsn> Katze
39:58 <rust_collector> katz katz katz
40:26 <rust_collector> cat deflector truck
40:47 <rust_collector> lololololololoooo lalalalalalalalalalallaaaa
49:22 <Ampera> hsn, if you killed my cat, chicken won't be the only white meat I store in my fridge
51:06 <hsn> Ur gonna store dead cat in ur fridge?
51:24 <rust_collector> it has to be somewhere...
51:41 <hsn> What is cat deflector
52:06 <rust_collector> uhm. what does it sound like it is?
52:15 <rust_collector> it deflect cats
52:36 <hsn> The closest word i know is reflect
52:42 <rust_collector> ok
52:53 <rust_collector> it is not exactly the same as that
53:23 <hsn> Its like light going throw water
53:40 <hsn> Change in angle = deflated light?
53:52 <rust_collector> deflated?
54:04 <hsn> Deflected
54:23 <hsn> Well also deflated if flat is 180deg
54:51 <rust_collector> well, I guess, change in angle is... sort of related
56:56 <rust_collector> so, if you have a cat shot towards you, the deflector will send the cat in a different angle.
57:06 <rust_collector> very handy
57:52 * steve30 puts the Clivestream on
58:07 <rust_collector> now? that is a bit late

26:44 <rust_collector> well, I guess I will stay with the normal fish, that I usually don't grill either
27:01 <rust_collector> but it could be fun to try some time
28:33 <Ysjoelfir> it absolutely could, yes
29:01 <Ysjoelfir> you should catch them yourself, for extra nom-ness
29:13 <rust_collector> talking about that. I wonder if there is any fish to catch here now
29:36 <Ysjoelfir> why wouldn't there be any?
30:01 <rust_collector> I dunno? maybe they went on holiday to spain
30:15 <Ysjoelfir> lol

39:58 <Ysjoelfir> rusty, I think I remember you once said you would be interested in kinda ok-ish scope?
41:38 <rust_collector> hmm? well, you know... kind of maybe.... uhm.
42:15 <Ysjoelfir> thats not very clear^^
44:12 <rust_collector> I do have 2 sort of halfass-ok scopes. but I am not against one more, but I guess it would need some kind of feature(s)
45:11 <rust_collector> I mean, the kikisui is just 20mhz, and has close to no features at all (but it looks great, imo)
46:09 <Ysjoelfir> I wonder if it would be worth it to list the Hameg HM1507-3 which needs just the encoders cleaned to be in perfect working condition in my shop
48:14 <rust_collector> ooh, digital analog. hmm
49:00 <Ysjoelfir> I mean, those are... rather expensive on ebay. but I am not sure if I want to go through the hassle to fix it and sell it for the full price
51:53 <rust_collector> well.. if it has encoders, I guess it would be easier to take apart than something with weird axles and springs, and cable on pulley stuff
52:23 <Ysjoelfir> yep.
53:15 <rust_collector> it does look like a pretty neat scope.
55:16 <Ysjoelfir> it is. I like it, have used it with the wanky encoders for quite some time
01:38 <T3sl4> mmm, egg sandwich
02:18 <Ysjoelfir> I take one as well, thanks
07:01 <rust_collector> hmm well, i probably won't buy anything for a bit of time, see if you can get anything for it, I can always see if it is still there, when buying stuff season is here again
08:34 <Ysjoelfir> ok :)
08:52 * T3sl4 eggs on Ysjoelfir
09:03 <Ysjoelfir> eh
09:08 <Ysjoelfir> not quite what I had in mind
09:10 <T3sl4> rust_collector can have a little egg too. as a treat
09:21 <rust_collector> kinder egg?
09:29 <T3sl4> no, those are illegal here
09:36 <rust_collector> I am not there
10:59 <T3sl4> what am i supposed to do, buy one there?
11:33 <rust_collector> I guess we should buy cases of kinder eggs, eat them, and send the empty boxes to you, so you can make videos and take pictures with them in the background
11:41 <rust_collector> well, yes?
12:01 <rust_collector> what other kind of small egg did you think of?
12:02 <T3sl4> UGHH
12:16 <T3sl4> fine, i'll get off my ass, walk 10,000 miles and pick some up! happy!?
12:30 <rust_collector> sounds good, thanks
12:56 <rust_collector> i will do like usual, and put a towel down on the beach
13:17 <T3sl4> hrm, i wonder how long i can hold my breath
14:11 <rust_collector> I used to sit on the toilet, and see how long I could hold my breath. it was not very impressive, lol
14:30 <rust_collector> I think it was just a bit over a minute
15:06 <T3sl4> oh, well no wonder, you're doing it wrong
15:14 <T3sl4> try holding your head in the toilet, then see
15:21 <T3sl4> may need someone else to assist
15:37 <rust_collector> but I no longer have a clock. meh
16:13 <Ysjoelfir> hmm... let me check how long I can do it. I'll start when I send this message to have a timestamp and type something when I stop again.
16:34 <rust_collector> (implode sounds)
17:15 <Ysjoelfir> srdfg
17:24 <Ysjoelfir> jep, a minute
17:36 <T3sl4> sounds about right
18:11 <Ysjoelfir> I should start training again... managed to do 2:18 like 15 years ago
18:38 <rust_collector> I should start training too, but not holding my breath, lol
21:03 <Ysjoelfir> hehe
21:52 <T3sl4> i'll be patient, but not holding my...you know
22:38 <rust_collector> I am usually pretty patient when I hold my you know.
22:53 <Ysjoelfir> ......
23:29 <rust_collector> I like it. it keeps my hand warm
26:47 <Ysjoelfir> sounds like a valid use case
27:22 <rust_collector> yep, moobs are pretty handy

32:29 <rust_collector> wow, that one is exactly what i have no use for
33:50 <Ysjoelfir> you should get it!
34:43 <electrohead> speaking of multimeters, I'd like to get a benchtop/desk meter eventually
34:58 <rust_collector> well, just because it comes with leads... I guess will buy that one

45:01 * Ampera snaps latex gloves near electrohead's rear end
45:17 <Ysjoelfir> hehehe
46:04 <rust_collector> oof, now I see images of the vet
49:28 <Ampera> slightly amusing anecdote from my pp visit, last time I went they gave me some tablet with a magstripe reader so I could sign in and pay the copay
49:42 <Ampera> but this time around they never gave me a tablet, and instead had me sign in on my phone
50:06 <Ampera> so when I was leaving, I asked the reception desk how I should pay the copay, and they said I could do it right there, and I could pay any way I wanted to
50:14 <Ampera> so I asked them if they took checks, they said no
50:30 <Ampera> so I guess I couldn't pay any way I wanted to
51:05 <electrohead> what trips me out a bit, is that most places that say you can pay with anything, don't accept checks. yet, some places, like the DMV here in my area, don't accept anything but checks or money order
51:07 <electrohead> o.O
51:22 <Ampera> lol yeah, when I got my passport I had to pay in checks or money order
51:25 <Ampera> which is why I ordered checks
51:33 <Ampera> but now I have like a hundred of the damn things, so I gotta use them up at some point
51:55 <rust_collector> go buy ice cream
52:11 <Ampera> hahaha, show up at the local ice cream place and say, yeah can I pay with a check
52:34 <rust_collector> $2
52:39 <Ampera> or be that one fucking person in the supermarket who is writing a fucking novel on their check just to give their chicken scritch ridden bad check to the cashier
53:56 <Ampera> nowadays with this space age technology and suck, I went to olive garden after my pp visit, first time going to one actually
54:08 <Ampera> and they had the sort of digital table kiosks thing that sit there, and I paid for my meal with my watch
54:09 <rust_collector> always pay for your weekly groceries with coins
54:33 * Ampera slams bucket on checkout belt
54:40 <Ampera> 250 bucks in pennies
54:43 <Ampera> count em and weep
55:19 <rust_collector> I don't like how you can pay for things with a card, and no pin or anything.
55:29 <rust_collector> well, i can't, but.
56:50 <Ampera> here credit cards don't have PINs
56:59 <Ampera> only debit cards do
57:12 <rust_collector> yes, debit.
57:20 <Ampera> they're separate systems, with the Visa/MasterCard systems utilizing signatures rather than PINs
57:40 <Ampera> however most people here use credit cards, as they are more secure than debit cards
58:02 <rust_collector> but if you buy things for less than around $350 or so, you don't have to use the pin
58:22 <Ampera> Here it depends, and I believe can either be set by the customer, or is set by the provider
58:32 <rust_collector> just put the card next to the reader, and POP money gone
58:47 <Ampera> doesn't work here. half the readers don't support radio cards
58:58 <Ampera> some of them don't even support chips, magstripe only
59:06 <rust_collector> I do not have that feature, but yea, that is ok.
59:09 <Ampera> some are them are chip, but for debit cards only
59:31 <Ampera> My phone has radiocard payments as well as MST, which is a big electromagnet that can activate a magstripe slot
00:17 <rust_collector> I am pretty sure my phone can pay for things as well, but. I like cash, I guess
00:39 <rust_collector> or bags of salt, or glass beads
01:09 <Ampera> Today I carried all common forms of payment, credit and debit cards, a phone which can use NFC and MST payments with that, a watch which could do NFC payments, as well as cash and checks
01:32 <electrohead> I'll never use a phone as a method to pay for something
01:49 <Ampera> why not

16:10 <rust_collector> he is too old. us old people can not allow such things to happen
21:45 <electrohead> because I don't trust it, plain and simple
21:55 <electrohead> plus, if I lose my phone, that's a huge security risk
48:28 <Ampera> you can remote wipe a phone easily
48:36 <Ampera> it's a bit harder to cancel a card
48:51 <Ampera> and unlike phones, cards has little authentication
48:55 <Ampera> *have
49:03 <rust_collector> if I am in a store, and my pants fall down, I don't want to mess with getting my phone out of the pocket, just to pay.

43:17 <rust_collector> yes. it is a bit meh
44:18 <rust_collector> but I think all the energy drinks I have tried has been less than great
