00:36:58 <electrohead> ooooo
00:38:38 <T3sl4> oh yeah, saw that
00:39:44 <electrohead> hackaday always posts some really neat projects
00:46:52 <T3sl4> well, "always" might be overstating it a bit
00:48:58 <electrohead> :P
00:49:09 <electrohead> I like most of the content
00:53:11 <hsn> no ..
00:53:17 <hsn> u like most of the content that u see ..
00:53:24 <hsn> do u see all content ?
00:54:11 <electrohead> ??
00:57:16 <hsn> electrohead, meaning there are lots of content .. u might see 20% of it .. if u watch regulary ?
00:57:33 <electrohead> I visit hackaday nearly every day :P
00:57:35 <hsn> or u see them all ?
00:57:59 <hsn> dont they like post 20 or somthing per day .. do u see them all ?
00:58:09 <hsn> darn
00:58:20 <electrohead> hackaday, slashdot, ycombinator hackernews are my top three
00:58:45 <electrohead> I want to say yes, but I very well could miss a few posts, here and there
01:01:26 <hsn> ah then my point doesnt apply
01:04:22 <electrohead> all good :p
01:14:14 <T3sl4> i just scroll through hackaday.com/blog until i find where i last left off ;P
01:18:55 <electrohead> I normally do as well, but occasionally I take a break from the screens, and just don't care where I pick back up :P
01:19:12 <electrohead> that's.. actually due to happen
01:19:28 <electrohead> I literally stare at a screen every day, because I like using linux on my computers that much
01:19:29 <electrohead> :/
01:21:39 <hsn> i waste full day staring on my design https://snipboard.io/7LbVQu.jpg
01:22:42 <hsn> and im thinking which "items" i need to try and shove into the BOM .. i should try potting .. it looks nice
01:23:03 <hsn> some esd matts lol

04:26:21 <rust_collector> hoiioh
04:27:55 <electrohead> hey
04:28:12 <Kuschelpony> Hello
04:30:30 <rust_collector> hi h
04:30:34 <rust_collector> i
04:30:52 * rust_collector still should clean my keyboard
04:31:57 <rust_collector> Kuschelpony, did you figure out something for your plating power thingie?
04:44:14 <Kuschelpony> i put that thing on hold, have currently a bit more boring household stuff to repair
04:45:46 <Kuschelpony> thats also one of the reasons i get a bit more silent and slow to reply
04:46:54 <rust_collector> woohoo! fixing things are in some ways better than making new stuff you have to fix later
04:50:23 <Kuschelpony> btw: nevewr get a blob of mashed potatoes in the dishwasher (as i did)
04:50:55 <rust_collector> oh crap. how do you plan to get your pressure washer in there?
04:51:04 <Kuschelpony> that stuff left a coat everywhere that now slowly dissolves after the third run
04:51:49 <Kuschelpony> it dissolved in the cold water at beginning, then solidified from the heat later
04:54:29 <rust_collector> I used to work on the side, at a place that receive vegetables from the farms, and either prepare them for other factories, or make some things there. so they had made a filter out of dumpsters, where potato....stuff would settle, before the water was let out into the drain. That did not work very well, as the potato gloop turned into "concrete" and they never got that out
04:55:49 <Kuschelpony> yep
04:56:01 <rust_collector> But oh well. it is good to hear that other people also do clever things now and then
05:38:21 <hsn> I like this song https://www.instagram.com/p/CK_NjvRMNTZ/?igshid=33dokyab36wl
05:41:34 <hsn> https://youtu.be/PFLF57vDYcQ
05:42:40 <rust_collector> did you forget you do not like music?
05:45:43 <hsn> Yes
05:46:01 <hsn> Every rules has exception
05:47:01 <rust_collector> yes, even if there was no car stereos in the time of the prophet, it is still ok for is members to take a taxi

05:57:13 <electrohead> lmfao.
05:57:34 <Ampera> was he content?
05:59:31 <electrohead> the icing on the cake was when they called for emergency services
05:59:45 <electrohead> "this isn't a prank, it was for a youtube video"

07:02:48 <hsn> Hello there Ysjoelfir
07:02:58 <hsn> And lol at microwave guy
07:03:08 <hsn> And rust i understood nothing
07:03:24 <rust_collector> there you go
07:03:26 <hsn> From prophet stereo taxi
07:03:47 <rust_collector> yes yes, it makes no sense
07:03:59 <rust_collector> how are things on the sand bank?
07:04:18 <hsn> Sand bank are crap
07:04:30 <rust_collector> YAAAAY!
07:04:40 <hsn> And green bank?
07:04:56 <rust_collector> maybe you need some long body furbies in your life
07:05:13 <hsn> Eevbot urban furbies
07:05:40 <hsn> I need a home
07:05:46 <hsn> Im homeless .. renting
07:06:11 <hsn> I cant live in piece
07:06:29 <rust_collector> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVdiOzbXbw8
07:08:46 <hsn> This is ur kid #1 rusty?
07:09:14 <rust_collector> nope, my kid #1 is slightly more masculine
07:09:46 <hsn> More Muslim?
07:10:00 <rust_collector> not even close.
07:10:08 <hsn> XD
07:10:28 <hsn> Ur kid #2 then?
07:11:12 <rust_collector> no, she looks different. but yeah, she could probably make a long furby
07:12:02 <hsn> Whats ur kids names rusty .. oxygen, hydrogen and fluorine?
07:13:26 <rust_collector> #1 is the first one, #2 is the second, and #3 is the last one. They are masters of darkness, cold, and suffering.
07:14:12 <rust_collector> heh, you people will have a great time, when I die, and they take over
07:16:36 <hsn> U think u will die?
07:17:14 <rust_collector> if I decide I will, I will leave this body, and find a new one.
07:17:27 <rust_collector> so, it depends on how you see it
07:17:34 <hsn> I ll convert ur first one into jew .. no more muslimine
07:18:00 <rust_collector> you can have the first one. he would make a good jew
07:18:45 <hsn> Yes he will visit ur grave with long hair and small cap
07:19:35 <hsn> U guys .. For how long u visit graves? Usually
07:20:10 <rust_collector> nah, he will probably sit on his ass and play some game. but i guess he would enjoy the wailing wall
07:20:32 <rust_collector> hmm, visit graves. It is very individual.
07:21:26 <hsn> Average .. median?
07:21:49 <hsn> Visit for first few years or something ?
07:22:11 <rust_collector> most graves are leased for 20 years. you can extend that 10+10 years, I think. But how much people actually visit them is very up and down. I guess most people go there maybe before christmas or something
07:22:46 <rust_collector> I am sure some people go there every weekend, or whatever
07:22:52 <hsn> I see. . and they go even after 20 years?
07:23:22 <hsn> Yeah we have every weekend also
07:23:37 <rust_collector> if they extend the lease, they probably will. But I don't really know
07:25:03 <rust_collector> i do not really go to any grave.
07:37:22 Quit: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) Quit: Verlassend
07:39:11 <rust_collector> Hmm, I do not really go to people who are alive. So visiting dead people is not very high on my list.
07:51:04 <Ampera> dead people visit me all the time
07:51:06 <Ampera> they scream at me
07:51:10 <Ampera> tell me that I am making a mistake
07:51:19 <Ampera> that my life is in danger, that I need help
07:51:25 <Ampera> I just laugh at them, they pretty funny
07:51:34 <Ampera> comedy just isn't the same as how it was when they were alive
07:52:42 <rust_collector> sounds better than netflix
07:53:45 <Ampera> Well that's not hard to do
07:54:16 <rust_collector> ok. i don't know. but it seems more popular than visiting dead people
08:02:06 <T3sl4> https://www.reddit.com/r/FoodPorn/comments/leoby7/shepherds_pie_muffins/
08:07:51 <rust_collector> hey! that is not legal!
08:26:14 <Ampera> all's legal in meat and potatoes
08:45:46 <rust_collector> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oMG4jsRckM1yUh_U6090Kuq7yYTpfhET/view
08:47:04 <rust_collector> that is legal, that other one... Not so sure?
08:51:08 * Ampera steals rust_collector's roast beef
08:51:32 <rust_collector> HAH! it is Ysjoelfirs...
08:51:35 <rust_collector> hope you like it
08:52:22 <Ampera> even better
08:52:32 <Ampera> it's more fun to steal from a filthy german!
08:53:07 <rust_collector> I can see that
08:53:37 <Ampera> of course, vikings have a long history of stealing from the germans
08:53:38 <Ampera> and the english
08:53:42 <Ampera> and pretty much everyone
08:54:15 <rust_collector> nah, I am not sure why people everywhere wanted to give us gifts all the time
08:55:08 <rust_collector> we just figured it would be rude to not accept their crappy gifts, so we had to haul all that stuff back home.
08:56:17 <rust_collector> reminds me of markets in places down south somewhere. "special price for you my friend"
08:56:41 <rust_collector> but I already have 5 pairs of sunglasses...
08:57:33 * Ampera snaps rust_collector's five pairs in two, now he has 10 sun monocles
08:57:55 <Ampera> so you can be extra fancy
08:57:58 <Ampera> while avoiding eye cancer
08:58:05 <rust_collector> cool. I can sell those to pirates, when the sun returns
08:59:41 <Ampera> I wonder why Halcyon_ never came on to say good morning
08:59:43 <Ampera> I think he hates us
08:59:44 <EEVBlog> And the horse you rode in on, Ampera!
08:59:46 <Ampera> yeah
08:59:58 <Ampera> wait, didn't you do that payload yesterday, EEVBlog?
09:00:08 <Ampera> EEVBlog, you stupid bot
09:00:09 <EEVBlog> If you keep saying that, I'm gonna hold you upside down and shake you until all the electrons fall out, Ampera!
09:00:30 <rust_collector> that one guy at work, that wants me to smoke a pipe, so I can use that to point at stuff... I think he would like me wearing a monocle
09:01:04 <Ampera> he just wants you to smoke so you get cancer and die
09:01:07 <Ampera> so he can take your job
09:01:34 <rust_collector> I do smoke, he just wants me to smoke a pipe
09:01:43 <Ampera> why do you smoke
09:01:45 <Ampera> are you a chimney?
09:01:53 <rust_collector> that is a very good question
09:02:06 <Ampera> I try
09:02:09 <Ampera> sometimes
09:02:12 <Ampera> not this time, I just got lucky

09:06:57 <rust_collector> makes sense
09:06:57 <Ysjoelfir> indeed
09:08:25 <Ampera> I'd suggest a coup, to make me the new Halcyon, but I'm not nearly gay, ancient, or upside down enough to be a good halcyon

09:18:19 <Ampera> speaking of that
09:18:23 <Ampera> how's that pinephone working out
09:26:54 <electrohead> it works well for home use, but still not using as my daily driver of a phone
09:27:37 <coppice> if you lost it would you pine for it?

09:48:31 <Ampera> so what you're saying is
09:48:33 <Ampera> you got dick on your mind
09:48:36 <Ampera> sounds pretty gay to me
09:49:53 <Ampera> today was a weird fucking day
09:50:12 <Ampera> felt like I wasn't even living it, was really spaced out for the entire day
09:50:50 <Halcyon> Morning all
09:52:26 <rust_collector> morning
09:53:04 <electrohead> I felt like that yesterday
09:53:12 * electrohead hugs Halcyon
09:53:24 * Ampera kisses Halcyon
09:54:10 <Ampera> It kinda felt like a stress induced catatonia
09:54:29 <Ampera> I wasn't completely catatonic, more dissociated
09:55:28 <Ampera> the shit my aunt is doing to my grandfather is getting to me, but not like it should be. It's like I've just got no more hope left, and it's just beating the shit out of me as I take it
09:57:35 <Halcyon> YAY! All the loves
09:57:54 * Halcyon cuddles Ampera
09:58:09 <Halcyon> I'm sorry to hear about your family :( It sucks when you're stuck in the middle of all this shit.
09:58:18 <Ampera> how are you doing Halcyon
09:58:29 <Ampera> yeah yeah I heard that shit two years ago
09:58:32 <Ampera> sucked then sucks now
09:58:41 <Halcyon> Yep
09:59:35 <Ampera> Then and now, the main thing keeping me down is my body. I'm sick and tired of being male.
10:01:06 <Halcyon> Is there any chance you and your grandfather can live together at some stage?
10:01:09 <Halcyon> I know you are very fond of him
10:01:52 <Ampera> no, I don't have a place to live myself right now
10:02:01 <Halcyon> Sure but when you do
10:02:02 <Ampera> well, I do, just not one of my own
10:02:09 <Ampera> when I do it'd be way too late
10:02:17 <Ampera> he'd have already have had to find somewhere else to live

10:08:25 <Halcyon> I need more coffee beans :(
10:23:03 <MrMobodies> Hello
10:24:24 <MrMobodies> I have been a bit lethargically ill for about a week
10:24:35 <rust_collector> stop that
10:24:40 <MrMobodies> but experimenting with some virtual mchine stuff
10:25:15 <MrMobodies> I like Proxmox but a bit slow and the PCI passthrough don't work on certain controllers
10:25:43 <MrMobodies> The fastest one seems to be Vmware 5.5 for that HP ML350 G6
10:26:01 <MrMobodies> stop that?
10:26:08 <rust_collector> yes
10:26:10 <MrMobodies> the coffee or me being ill
10:26:24 <MrMobodies> I am feeling better now
10:26:26 <rust_collector> you being ill
10:26:32 <rust_collector> just stop doing ill
10:26:54 <MrMobodies> I wish I had a choice, it has been raining a lot but I got to go for a little walk
10:27:09 <MrMobodies> I want to compile this driver and make it work
10:27:58 <MrMobodies> https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/drivers/crypto/cavium
10:28:42 <rust_collector> ok
10:28:43 <MrMobodies> be interesting if I can get that to work
10:30:44 <MrMobodies> https://www.garlandcomputers.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/s-l1600-5.jpg
10:30:51 <MrMobodies> doesn't that look exciting?
10:31:16 <MrMobodies> behind the heatsink is this controller
10:31:17 <MrMobodies> https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/cavium/octeon_plus/cn5750-600bg1217-sp
10:31:32 <rust_collector> we all have different kinds of boobies to watch...
10:32:22 <MrMobodies> if I can get that to work (I doubt it) then it will be a great replacement for those four Alteon Acenics I have in the firewall
10:32:31 <MrMobodies> which are like beyond obsolete
10:33:02 <MrMobodies> good at what they do but can only do 660mbps or so throughput
10:33:17 <MrMobodies> and bugger all cpu usage
10:33:17 <rust_collector> what makes it so hard to make that on ework?
10:34:03 <MrMobodies> well need to be a registered to get the drivers many years ago, company brought it out, for a while there was linux support that got withdrawn
10:34:09 <MrMobodies> but now they are making acome back
10:34:18 <MrMobodies> to support Cavium Octeon stuf
10:34:36 <MrMobodies> https://www.newsbreak.com/news/1508572446041/cavium-octeon-driver-support-for-linux-is-coming-back-from-the-dead
10:35:11 <MrMobodies> I never compiled a driver on Linux before that's what makes it difficult fo rme
10:35:22 <MrMobodies> but in this case it'll be an incentive
10:35:58 <MrMobodies> you see I am very lazy unless there is incentive and opportunity in certain things
10:36:57 <MrMobodies> I was out shopping in Sainsbury's some days ago
10:37:09 <MrMobodies> for the first time it was really nice
10:37:23 <MrMobodies> not many people there and I have not become walking into
10:37:40 <MRiddickW_> Huh. I knew a guy who worked at Garland Computers.
10:37:54 Nick: MRiddickW_ is now known as MRiddickW
10:37:58 <MrMobodies> oh
10:38:10 <rust_collector> i have never been in sainsburys either.
10:38:44 <MrMobodies> I was going to buy a birthday cake for my dad but they didn't look good.
10:38:52 <MrMobodies> It is a British Supermarket
10:39:08 <rust_collector> i know. but I still have not been there, lol
10:39:32 <MrMobodies> There so much ingredients, tiny but so many under the large box
10:39:48 <MrMobodies> I find trying to read it was like trying to read a legal document
10:40:15 <MrMobodies> like the contracts I get when signing up for things
10:40:38 <MrMobodies> I wonder, what does that ingredient do, what is it for...
10:41:16 <MrMobodies> oh sugar, preservatives... okay, palm oil... extra fat... pork/beef gelatine.. make it set quicker...
10:41:51 <MrMobodies> this agent that agent, reconstituted this and that
10:42:02 <MrMobodies> lots of "e" numbers in there
10:42:20 <Halcyon> Cake shouldn't have all that garbage in it
10:42:23 <MrMobodies> in the end my mum just made one at home
10:42:39 <rust_collector> yep. otoh, lots of very common and normal things have E numbers.
10:42:41 <MrMobodies> ever seen "a plain egg sandwich" they sell
10:42:54 <MrMobodies> some of them are not very plain at all in the ingredients
10:43:22 <MrMobodies> they sell some good sandwiches with fewer ingrdients
10:43:30 <rust_collector> if they were, they could not leave them on a shelf for a week
10:43:53 <MrMobodies> but there are they nasty looking black plastic ones for a £1 that look dodgy and as in the ingredients
10:44:56 <MrMobodies> I see, it will keep on looking nice for the next "punter"
10:45:21 <MrMobodies> or person who gets taken in by it's chocolate looks
10:45:22 <rust_collector> well, pretty much

14:31:38 <steve30> hi
14:33:45 <Halcyon> Hey steve30
14:36:37 <steve30> I've got a leaky pipe to fix later
14:37:31 <T3sl4> Halcyon can help you lay pipe, but i'm afraid he'll just make it leakier
14:38:35 <Halcyon> Isn't "laying pipe/rope" a euphemism for pooping?
14:38:40 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: I fail the Year 1 pencil grip test. https://t.co/H4tXDGNPQk
14:39:23 <T3sl4> rope probably?
14:39:44 <T3sl4> i thought the other one meant penising
14:40:01 <Halcyon> :P
14:41:00 <MrMobodies> is it dripping?
14:41:14 <Halcyon> Where is the pipe steve30 ?
14:41:24 <MrMobodies> copper or plastic?
14:41:30 <T3sl4> hot or cold
14:41:46 <steve30> Its the joint between a copper pipe and a flexible pipe that's dripping.
14:42:03 <steve30> (its the water supply for the washing machine)
14:42:14 <MrMobodies> I see it needs a bit of soldering
14:42:20 <MrMobodies> on he joint
14:42:31 <steve30> It also has a convenient valve on it, so after letting it leak all night, I just remembered to turn it off :)
14:44:33 <MrMobodies> I had a plumber once in 2012 during refurbishing my attic
14:44:38 <MrMobodies> everything he touched leaked
14:44:53 <Halcyon> Sex fingers?
14:45:05 <MrMobodies> well he lost hsi tempter one day an dhad a go at me
14:45:06 <Halcyon> Everything he touches, he fucks
14:45:10 <MrMobodies> apparently his wife left him
14:45:19 <MrMobodies> then his van got dented
14:45:23 <Halcyon> Maybe he was a jerk?
14:45:23 <T3sl4> well, he made you moist
14:45:25 <MrMobodies> in an acciden that day
14:45:34 <MrMobodies> I didn't employ him the builder did
14:45:45 <MrMobodies> he had two plumbers working for him before which did everything I asked
14:45:52 <MrMobodies> copper with no question
14:46:06 <MrMobodies> this man tried to use plastic pipes despite it saying copper in the contract
14:46:23 <Halcyon> I went with plastic in my house for the most part
14:46:25 <MrMobodies> all the men working told him as they knew me but he couldn't believe until we had an argument
14:46:32 <Halcyon> I found it had more benefits than negatives
14:46:39 <MrMobodies> the builder came in and put hi min his place
14:46:41 <Halcyon> And cheaper which was nice
14:46:51 <steve30> I know some people prefer plastic pipe these days
14:46:54 <MrMobodies> well I have some in this house
14:47:01 <MrMobodies> I am waiting to see how that will go
14:47:24 <steve30> we have all copper pipe in here
14:48:00 <MrMobodies> I once worked for a building insurance company I'd see claims for like 20- 40,000 pounds worth of damages when they break open
14:48:10 <Halcyon> The reasons I chose plastic was, it's easier to replace if I ever needed to, no water hammer and cheaper
14:48:17 <MrMobodies> most of the time the surveyer siad they wern't fitted correctly
14:48:23 <Halcyon> Yeh exactly
14:48:36 <T3sl4> thought you liked getting hammered Halcyon
14:48:44 <Halcyon> And as with everything, you want the decent brands with proper joints. No cheap Chinese shit/.
14:48:52 <Halcyon> T3sl4, nope :)
14:49:05 <MrMobodies> I think in some cases it gives the plumber an excuse to do shoddy work well I don't think it would matter with any material they use
14:49:31 <MrMobodies> there is something on the market that I find interesting
14:49:46 <MrMobodies> plastic backed copper for in cement
14:50:16 <T3sl4> backed as in coated or lined
14:50:30 <MrMobodies> a friend was using it so he didn't have to putstuff over the pipes to stop it the cement eating into it
14:50:44 <MrMobodies> I kind of like that idea
14:51:06 <MrMobodies> it look nice as well when it was laid
14:51:16 <MrMobodies> it was for his kitchen extension
14:51:33 <MrMobodies> but he didn't have to use the fluffly stuff to put over the pipes
14:51:55 <MrMobodies> I don't think it was normal plastic but I think he it had some additive to stop it rotting
14:52:33 <MrMobodies> that plumbler broke my radiator valve and that leaked
14:53:06 <MrMobodies> used crap screws that rotted in the toilet cistern, fitting the sink wrongly
14:53:21 <MrMobodies> he didn't seal the tank pipe and it leaked
14:53:47 <MrMobodies> and I though't I'd call someone I knew out, I didn't want any arguments with my builder
14:54:13 <MrMobodies> but the plans worked well, 7 good years in that bathroom before I moved
14:54:49 <MrMobodies> I had them, lay the pipes, tile it, fir the altrofloor
14:55:03 <MrMobodies> and put a drain so it if leaked I have nothing to worry about
15:02:02 <Halcyon> Ysjoelfir, you around?

15:07:24 <MrMobodies> Sorry Halycon, I didn't mean to hammer you.

15:16:54 <MrMobodies> well the ones downstairs
15:17:57 <MrMobodies> so the is nice and fresh now and they're sleeping so it shouldn't a be problem.
15:18:37 <steve30> i haven't had the window open for a few days
15:19:01 <MrMobodies> that's nice when you have fresh and and heat
15:19:14 <MrMobodies> instead of going from one extreme to the next

16:38:33 <Kuschelpony> Halcyon, yes its my native language
16:38:43 <Kuschelpony> how can i help you?
16:42:42 <Halcyon> It's all good Kuschelpony, between Google translate and watching the episodes, I'm slowly working it out
16:42:54 <Halcyon> I am ripping an Australian TV series that was released in Germany
16:42:55 <Kuschelpony> ah ok
16:43:27 <Kuschelpony> and i do breakfast, have decided to take a holiday and stay at home as the weather is unpredictable snow and ice
16:43:30 <Halcyon> It's an old one you can't get anymore, so whilst the titles are in German, they retained the original English audio track
16:44:42 <Kuschelpony> ah
16:45:38 <Kuschelpony> i dont know that stuff since i quit watching tv and movies two decades ago, trurned out i fit much better in an asynchronous text and static image based media
16:46:13 <Halcyon> Heheh Well this it from the 1990's
16:46:17 <Halcyon> Most modern stuff is shit
16:47:43 <Kuschelpony> i cant judge, i can only say my brain couldnt handle it anymore but thats more related to forced information speed, overflow and dealing with emotions

16:54:00 <Kuschelpony> hmm, i hope i can explain right
16:55:31 <Kuschelpony> its a saying, i hope to explain it right that its one or two levels below a curse, that says "oh these people, always they force their opinion that they know something better"

18:01:36 <steve30> hi
18:01:47 <Halcyon> Hey steve30 :)
18:01:56 <Halcyon> Hey Ysjoelfir
18:04:18 <Ysjoelfir> hi Halcyon
18:44:23 <Ysjoelfir> oh and hi steve :D
19:12:31 <Ysjoelfir> so I wanted to go for a ride with the car. noticed that that won't happen today.
19:12:38 <Ysjoelfir> or in the upcoming days
19:12:51 <Ysjoelfir> at least not without having a blowtorch at my disposal
19:23:07 <Halcyon> Oh?
19:24:03 <Ysjoelfir> yep. And no, the volvo didn't spontaneously into a hot-bulb engine, but it has a 5mm thick ice coating on the whole thing
19:24:14 <Ysjoelfir> *evolve into
19:25:02 <Halcyon> It's just preserved :P
19:25:10 <Halcyon> Doesn't that kill batteries though?
19:25:45 <Ysjoelfir> I just put a new one in a few days ago, it'll be fine. its a gel type as well, so I don't think freezing is THAT bad on those nowadays
19:26:08 <Halcyon> It never gets cold enough here to bother thinking about that
19:28:48 <Ysjoelfir> usually it doesn't do that here as well (well, not anymore for some years.) But this week there is some kind of arctic whooshy air thingy going on and meeting warm air from the sahara, basically splitting germanistan in half. the north gets more snow than they have ever seen, the south can go sunbathing in january (seriously, its supposed to go up to +15!) and the splitline gets nice medium-low temperatures around ~ -10 with freezing rain
19:28:48 <Ysjoelfir> and a bit of snow on top
19:30:21 <Halcyon> We are having a mild (and wet) summer. But it is La Nina, so it's to be expected
19:30:54 <Ysjoelfir> La Nina was up here a few months (?) ago as well. but in autumn. was interesting as well
19:31:17 <Halcyon> I guess it's a gradual thing that creeps in and out over several years
19:31:38 <Halcyon> What's the cycle between La Nina and El Nino? Like 4 years or something?
19:31:49 <Ysjoelfir> I think so, too. Would love for it to stay a bit colder though.
19:31:55 <Ysjoelfir> yep, I think it was roughly 4 years
19:32:00 <Halcyon> I miss the heat
19:32:19 <Ysjoelfir> I miss the cold. :P
19:32:22 <Halcyon> Although that being said, it will help my electricity bill that I haven't really needed air conditioning yet, apart from a few days.
19:32:47 <Halcyon> I was supposed to have batteries installed last month, but there is a delay on components :(
19:32:53 <Halcyon> And a bigger solar array
19:32:58 <Ysjoelfir> I am rather happy that I didn'Ät have to carry the aircon down from the attic this year. It was hot, but not THAT hot.
19:33:30 <Halcyon> I have ducted here. Either that or a split system is almost mandatory in Australia
19:33:38 <Ysjoelfir> I have a spare, barely used Volvo starter battery for you! 460Ah, 12V, 1998 vintage!
19:33:41 <Halcyon> Very few places don't have some kind of system installed
19:33:51 <Halcyon> Oh gees! 1998!
19:33:56 * steve30 fires a snowball at Halcyon
19:34:04 <Halcyon> I'd be surprised if that held much of a charge anymore
19:34:43 * Halcyon fires... ermm... beach water at steve30
19:34:45 <Halcyon> *shrug*
19:35:15 <steve30> yay beach water
19:35:20 * steve30 gets the surf board out
19:35:33 <Halcyon> I enjoy the beach, but I wouldn't want to live near it
19:35:38 <Halcyon> Sand gets EVERYWHERE
19:37:34 <Ysjoelfir> why would you be surprised, Halcyon?^^ it was a unsealed lead acid type, and it had only seen roughly 477.000km service use. Thats just barely used after all xD
19:37:43 <Ysjoelfir> Also, I hate sand.
19:38:07 <Halcyon> Don't they degrade over time?
19:38:13 <Halcyon> Especially over that kind of time?
19:39:47 <Ysjoelfir> yes, absolutely. Sometimes you get lucky and the owner takes good care of it, refills it every now and then and doesn't overdischarge it. Since the old man I bought the car from brought it to the mechanic for every little thing (like changing wiper blades and refilling washer fluid) I think they took care of it. But yes, it started to have trouble starting which is why I exchanged it.
19:40:16 <Ysjoelfir> I would have opted for an unsealed one now, but there were non available at the moment, so I had to take the sealed gel version
19:41:46 <Halcyon> We have to be careful of high charging temperatures. A lot of our car battery chargers have 2 modes. One for under 24-25 degrees and one for above
19:42:16 <Halcyon> Not sure what the difference is, maybe lower current ?
19:43:15 <Ysjoelfir> I think a slightly different voltage maybe? so that the battery doesn't tend to outgass as much in the summer?
19:43:29 <Halcyon> Yeh maybe
19:43:33 <Halcyon> I didn't read the manual :P
19:43:40 <K> hello salts
19:44:08 <Halcyon> Hello mayo
19:44:22 <K> ill take it
19:44:24 <Halcyon> I'm liking all your food references K :P
19:45:00 <K> was more referring the salt they put on pavements so pedestrians dont slip and break their bones
19:45:12 <K> -15C here
19:45:33 <Ysjoelfir> hi pepper :) Also, speaking of outgassing Halcyon... you know when you jumpstart a car you are supposed to connect plus first, then connect your ground to the chassis of the receiving car. Wanted to jumpstart a friend of mine yesterday, she has a ford focus. that stupid things motor.....area is completely covered in plastic, there is just NO place to connect the jumpstart cable to the chassis oO I had to connect it directly to the battery,
19:45:33 <Ysjoelfir> which scared me a bit
19:46:06 <Halcyon> I've always just connected it straight to the battery
19:46:33 <Halcyon> Especially since a lot of cars have a big fat earth strap direct from the battery to the body. I don't see the difference?
19:46:35 <Ysjoelfir> I did that as well, until my uncle managed to blow a battery right into his face while doing so
19:48:17 <Ysjoelfir> the difference is subtle: if the battery is outgassing a lot of hydrogen you want to be as far away from the battery as possible when you connect the second cable (and creating a spark doing so and potentially igniting the hydrogen/oxygen mix).
19:48:26 <Halcyon> Fascinating: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bNGi4SQuHo
19:48:40 <K> we need to outgass Halcyon ?
19:48:44 <K> wot?
19:48:50 <Halcyon> K: Talking about car batteries
19:48:52 <K> ah.
19:49:20 <Halcyon> But Ysjoelfir if there is plenty of ventilation (like you would normally have with an open bonnet outside), it can't be that bad
19:49:21 <Halcyon> ?
19:51:00 <Ysjoelfir> I don't think its a common thing, but I have "seen" it happen, so... better be safe than sorry, don't want any of that nice acid on your face
19:51:28 <Halcyon> Don't put your face in there :P
19:51:42 <Ysjoelfir> XD
20:19:10 <steve30> I think i fixed my leaky pipe

20:24:09 <hsn> no bones in my chicken

21:02:14 <steve30> I have operated one with different gloves and it worked OK, but one of those gloves does actually have a hole in the finger
21:02:27 <steve30> Why they need touch screens fro an ATM I don't know.
21:03:35 <Halcyon> I haven't used an ATM for many many months
21:03:48 <Halcyon> The last time I used one was to get cash out for a mate who's cards were stolen
21:06:47 <steve30> I did get some money from the cashier a few weeks ago in the building society, using my dot matrix printed passbook. They were incredibly reluctant to give it to me.
21:07:54 <Ysjoelfir> why that?
21:09:35 <steve30> I suspect it may have been out of spite. I don't think they wanted pesky customers coming in wanting access to their own money.
21:09:51 <steve30> Though they were more than happy to accept the cheque I gave them for depositing.

21:28:44 Join: Nero_ ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
21:30:13 Nick: Nero_ is now known as NeroTHz
21:31:01 <Ysjoelfir> WOAH! Its a NeroVeryFast!
21:31:46 <NeroTHz> tis
21:32:02 <NeroTHz> havent been very acive in a while cause work work work
21:32:25 <Ysjoelfir> I noticed^^
21:32:28 <NeroTHz> with ¨in a while¨ I mean like half a year lol
21:32:36 <Ysjoelfir> indeed ^^
21:32:45 <Ampera> I don't notice anyone leaving or going, I barely know who any of you even are
21:32:59 <NeroTHz> this quarantine stuff really fucks with my peception of time
21:33:08 <Ampera> I have a set of flash cards I review every day just so I can recall who some of you are every day
21:33:08 <Ysjoelfir> But Ampera, I thought there was something special between us ;_;
21:33:21 <Ampera> the only thing special here is you
21:33:31 <Ysjoelfir> Aww <3
21:33:40 <Ampera> alright then
21:34:26 <NeroTHz> I´m doing RFIC design these days
21:34:30 <NeroTHz> 100 gbit transmitters
21:34:41 <NeroTHz> same old same old Iguess
21:35:00 <Ysjoelfir> nice. so you evolved from antennas to things that should not behave like an antenna? :D
21:35:29 <NeroTHz> yea
21:35:52 <NeroTHz> mostly designing transformers to be honest
21:37:07 <Ysjoelfir> as long as it makes money that sounds fine to me
21:43:25 <K> how did that IC conference thing end up, NeroTHz?
21:55:18 <T3sl4> NeroTHz!
21:56:20 <NeroTHz> K, you mean ISSCC? we got rejected, which was to be expected to be honest
21:56:43 <NeroTHz> thing is, there was a (much shorter range) link submitted to the same session that had 2ce our thruoghput
21:57:39 <hsn> hello NeroTHz
21:57:44 <hsn> good day to u sir
21:58:15 <NeroTHz> so our meager 50 gbit/s was not enough to get in. I did get into two other conferences though, European microwave and IMS
21:58:38 <NeroTHz> Hey T3sl4
22:04:00 <NeroTHz> fun thing is now I get to come up with new topologies
22:04:15 <NeroTHz> folded cascode AM modulator with inductive degeneration for frequency peaking
22:05:30 <T3sl4> well, new for the fab i guess?
22:06:16 <NeroTHz> nah, I´m back to CMOS, not sigebicmos
22:06:51 <NeroTHz> the annoying thing is that the MPW runs for ST SiGe-BICMOS take over 6 months to get back from tape-out, which is just too long
22:06:57 <NeroTHz> means you have to think over a year in advance
22:07:06 <NeroTHz> the TSMC runs are <3 months
22:07:18 <T3sl4> lovely ;)
22:08:08 <NeroTHz> yeah, itś a huge difference to be honest. Too bad, ST´s BiCMOS is amazeballs
22:09:40 <T3sl4> bicmos sounded a bit archaic for a moment there, until i realized yeah with SiGe
22:10:44 <NeroTHz> they have an Ft/Fmax of like 380 GHz, compared to the ´true´ fmax of our CMOS which is just over 300
22:10:52 <NeroTHz> It would make my life a heck of a lot easier
22:11:01 <NeroTHz> but challenge breeds creativity or whatever they say
22:12:54 * hsn slam his head into wall because understand no MOS
22:13:35 * hsn runs on 50Hz brain 100nuerons only
22:16:29 <NeroTHz> STs BiCMOS is also lovely because it doens´t really comprimise on the CMOS part. You have BiCMOS technologies from places like IHP and TowerJazz, but the CMOS part there is not even competitive with the state-of-art from 25 years ago. Huge devices, poor leakage... only good to do basic ´digital tuning´ of your analog
22:16:40 <T3sl4> in spanish, it's "no mas"
22:16:59 <NeroTHz> but ST has their full 55 nm CMOS technology capacity, so you really can do some really cool mixed-signal things, RF dacs and so on
22:18:43 <NeroTHz> but sacre blue no ziggeh-bicimosz pour moi
22:19:41 <NeroTHz> how is everyone here doing
22:20:41 <T3sl4> i just got up

23:10:52 <NeroTHz> Coil has too much losses ->¨Hmm guess I should make my winding a bit thicker¨ -> Coil now has more losses
23:11:12 <Ysjoelfir> perfect! :D
23:11:56 <Ysjoelfir> Make it smaller - fuck, it burnt.
23:12:34 <NeroTHz> haha nah, don´t really need to worry about that
23:12:43 <K> "more" is better than "much more", no?
23:12:58 <NeroTHz> but it´s just odd, I wonder why. Only think I can imagine is that capacitive substrate-coupling has increased
23:13:12 <K> geometry changes?
23:13:22 <NeroTHz> nah, its the same trace, just thicker
23:13:31 <K> it thicc
23:13:47 <NeroTHz> tis, full 8um
23:13:56 <NeroTHz> #chiplife
23:13:58 <K> chungus-trace
23:28:06 <Ysjoelfir> inductances in themselves are odd. I remember when working on my bachelors thesis I used a way to trim a power inductor by using its stray field, eg. winding more turns around the whole coil. worked great, but only to a very specific point: the moment you add one more winding than what fits into the opening of the iron packet the trimming starts to go into the opposite direction pretty quickly.
23:35:34 <T3sl4> can you make thicker metallization BTW?
23:36:10 <NeroTHz> I can stack, but that is an absolute pain to do and simulate, because you need to deal with the oddness of vias in EM sim
