29:09 <electrohead> oh, that many days?
29:12 <electrohead> guh
29:19 * electrohead takes one, anyways
29:25 <Ampera> about as much, maybe more because I've packed it quite tight
29:33 <electrohead> that's what she said
29:34 <Ampera> it needs to completely dry all the way through
29:41 <Ampera> haha
29:50 <electrohead> :p

42:57 <Kuschelpony> lol: W5M the amplifier that you can use on both sides of the equator
57:37 <K> u wot
00:31 <Kuschelpony> a joke for the australians, "down under", just read the type number upside down and its the same
01:57 <K> oh.
02:06 <K> a solid dad-joke contender!
04:27 <Kuschelpony> hmm?
08:49 <K> nvm, im just tired and a tad irritated
09:23 <K> some ass decieded to smoke in the office garage and ventilation dragged it in :/
16:06 <Kuschelpony> today i learned:
16:26 <Kuschelpony> i have a crappy 7� USB soundcard with noisy output
16:52 <Kuschelpony> there were two unpopulated places for capacitors so i soldered 100nF on them
17:09 <Kuschelpony> result: the noise stayed the same, the music was gone
17:52 <Kuschelpony> seems to be more like a place for emc filtering and not for supply decoupling
18:23 <Kuschelpony> anyway, its back to be as crappy before now

39:21 <K> Kuschelpony - what kind of noise?
40:34 <Kuschelpony> hiss and 1khz pulses from USB data packets
41:44 <hsn> sound type noise ?

41:54 <hsn> some coil is vibrating ?
42:20 Join: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
43:04 <Kuschelpony> oops, literally pulled the power plug as well...
45:36 <K> tried usb cable with ferrite thing?
45:45 <K> i had similar issue with mic adapter
46:06 <K> helped a bit
47:46 <Kuschelpony> no, its not that kind of RF problem, just the usb soundcard itself has practically no filtering, i had bought the bottom end but did not expect it to be SO bad
48:05 <Kuschelpony> was just the only thing i could get last week in a food shop as we are still in lockdown
48:50 <Kuschelpony> as far as i know its a cm108 clone in COB blob, and built to absolue minimum withoput any decoupling
49:32 <K> ah.
49:58 <Kuschelpony> on the NF amplifier side i did good filtering around the TPA3118 boards, thats absolutely clean and even the weakest FM radio stations do not get additionally disturbed
51:49 <Kuschelpony> something tickles me to design some own good board for an usb DAC, but i have already choosen to fill this year with non-electronic projects

19:45 <Ysjoelfir> mornings
20:12 <Kuschelpony> good evening
20:54 <Ampera> hi Ysjoelfir how are you doing
20:57 <Ampera> hi TheDude how are you doing
21:02 <Ampera> hi Kuschelpony how are you doing
21:27 <Ysjoelfir> Mornings Ampera, I'm happy, my Hurdy Gurdy DIY Kit is being processed and being shipped soon
21:49 <Ampera> you're building a hurdy gurdy?
21:51 <TheDude> hey, good
22:03 <Ysjoelfir> Yes
23:53 <Ysjoelfir> first a DIY kit one (check out nerdygurdy.nl ) and I also ordered the book "Build wooden instruments with handtools" (free translation by me, its a german book), which also describes building one from scratch, which will be the long long long term goal. but I would like to learn playing, and there the nerdygurdy seems to be pretty good for the price
24:37 <Ampera> that's neat
26:15 <Kuschelpony> Ampera, still writing some messages to distant friends elsewhere, but soon going to bed early today, i do not have that much motivation for anything significant today anymore
27:04 <Ampera> That the kind of depressed, melancholy defeat that resonates deeply within my soul.
27:06 <Ampera> Have fun with that!
27:48 <Kuschelpony> mmh, im not sure if you have read my older postings today
27:49 * electrohead burns Ampera's soul
28:04 <Ampera> electrohead, what soul
28:20 <electrohead> oh oh, my bad, it's burned up already
28:23 <electrohead> :P
28:33 <Ampera> I'm not sure it ever really existed
28:46 <Kuschelpony> i choosed to fill the year mostly with non-electronic projects, beeing more on a tour to explore more of myself and go out into the world in crazier ways
28:48 <Ampera> even if it did, all I know is I'm not human
29:20 <Ampera> An eccentric year of self-discovery sounds like a great thing for covid to shit on
29:24 <Kuschelpony> doing bigger electronic projects feels the last few years barely anymore satisfying
30:02 <Kuschelpony> yes, a mix of self-discovery, trying to explore more of direct physical exploration and feelings

25:44 <Ysjoelfir> *heavy reqs, don't know what I had in my mind with that word
26:13 * T3sl4 reqs Ysjoelfir
26:27 <Ysjoelfir> damn
33:25 <Halcyon> Morning all
33:36 <Halcyon> I'm not a bear Ampera :P
33:42 <T3sl4> requisition me a hug
33:51 * Halcyon hugs T3sl4 
33:54 <Ampera> Halcyon, yeah, I guess I thought you were a cooler gay than you actually were
33:56 <Halcyon> I'm tired
33:56 <T3sl4> \o/
34:10 <Halcyon> Hahah, you know what a bear is don't you? :P
34:10 * Ampera hugs Halcyon with caffeine pills
34:14 <Ampera> yes I do
34:23 <Halcyon> I have coffee, just waiting for it to kick in
34:38 <Ampera> I've been waking up with 100mg caffeine pills every morning now and they are quite nice
34:55 <Halcyon> Yep
35:04 <Ampera> in other news, I think the one thing I hate the most about Windows is simply how hard it is to package some fucking software for it
35:07 <Halcyon> I actually like the taste of coffee, which is why I drink it
35:10 * T3sl4 gives Ampera some pain pills
35:17 <Halcyon> I prefer bitter/savoury to sweet
35:19 <T3sl4> they're pain pills. they give you pain
35:24 <Ampera> I don't like hot drinks in general
35:32 <Ampera> but coffee gives me severe nausea
35:35 <Halcyon> You could be a hipster and drink cold brew?
35:39 <Ampera> like I'll be wishing I could vomit all day
35:45 <Halcyon> But you need good coffee for that
45:34 <T3sl4> why wish? eat a broccoli
45:52 * electrohead offers rice and eggs
46:46 <spark_gap> does anyone know why PIC18 is a weird thing
47:17 <T3sl4> yes
47:53 <spark_gap> cannot do rotate right through carry normaly
48:19 <spark_gap> sometimes unexpected results
48:51 <electrohead> what exactly is it doing?
49:22 <spark_gap> 0xFE -> RRCF -> sometimes result is 0xFF
49:39 <spark_gap> instead of 0x7F
49:55 <T3sl4> and carry was clear?
50:00 <spark_gap> this is driving me crazy
50:07 <spark_gap> yes i set carry clear
51:10 <spark_gap> does not matter ones or twice before operation
51:56 <spark_gap> also i BANKSEL to the register i am doing rotate right operation
52:22 <spark_gap> still getting same results
52:41 <electrohead> do you have another PIC18 to test it out, on?
54:03 <spark_gap> yes but perhaps will need to desolder current one from board
56:43 Join: Andre ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
59:38 <electrohead> shit :/
01:06 <hsn> What do u guys think of thunderf00t channel guy
01:08 <hsn> https://youtu.be/4TxkE_oYrjU
02:51 <T3sl4> he's ok... on the more sensational than even-handed side of debunking tho, i think
10:58 <spark_gap> BANKSEL	 STATUS
10:59 <spark_gap> CLRF	STATUS,	 C	
11:09 <spark_gap> how to properly clear carry flag? i do this way
11:30 <Ysjoelfir> ~Did you try turning it off and on again?
13:29 <spark_gap> BCF STATUS, C works
13:46 <hsn> Ysjoelfir: now u sound like my telecom company asking me to restart router and wait
13:47 <spark_gap> CLRF was wrong way of doing it
13:50 <hsn> XD
14:53 <spark_gap> I was messing with this pic18 for two days
15:20 <spark_gap> makes me wanna attach dynamite to it and repair this way
15:26 <hsn> https://photos.app.goo.gl/kRFwxzUJymRdQib3A
15:38 <hsn> spark_gap: lol i know ur feeling
15:40 <Ysjoelfir> Did you consider swapping the Pic with an Atmel?
15:59 <spark_gap> yes, on my net project
16:05 <spark_gap> next*
16:43 <hsn> spark_gap: did u try microchip customer support
16:47 <hsn> Its useful
16:54 <spark_gap> :D
16:56 <spark_gap> well
17:06 <spark_gap> they say "just read the datasheet"
17:10 <spark_gap> :D
17:27 <spark_gap> I mean i do read the datasheet
17:29 <Ysjoelfir> Is it? My only experience with those clowns was when I asked for a datasheet for something they asked> well, look in the datasheet.
17:31 <hsn> I did few submit a ticket and get useful info ..
17:34 <hsn> From them
17:43 <Ysjoelfir> *they answered I mean
17:56 <spark_gap> tried to register on their forum
17:58 <spark_gap> no luck
18:00 <hsn> One of them was a bug in their ASF library
18:49 <Ysjoelfir> I won't even try. when they bought atmel they fucked up so many links on the atmel site I don't think it would be worth the effort
18:58 <spark_gap> they just not sending me activation email when i am trying to register on their forum
19:23 <spark_gap> and they not responding my emails
19:31 <hsn> I didnt do the fourum but actual support ticket
20:26 <hsn> Ysjoelfir: yeah that is annoying
20:41 <hsn> Some links have w3schools lol
23:50 <spark_gap> searching for alternatives is also hard, when i just want simple MCU to control few relays, and dont need no ADC DAC, USART, nothing
24:16 <Ysjoelfir> atmega48 is cheap and works fine, despite having ADC, USART and whatnot.
24:21 <spark_gap> just simplest mcu with enough pins and ram and eeprom
24:24 <Ysjoelfir> alternatively attinys
24:57 <spark_gap> i never like complexity when not needed
25:16 <spark_gap> also pinout sometimes sucks
25:30 <steve30000> I did a little video project on my PowerMac G4. Its currently rendering at 3fps
29:05 <spark_gap> i see 16F59 never dying
29:38 <spark_gap> would be nice to find something like this but with deeper stack
33:47 <Ysjoelfir> steve3000000000000, you might want to build a cluster with 200 of those >D
34:36 <steve30000> I think I'll set up an emulator on my modern machine.
35:10 <steve30000> Although it was quite pleasant editing a video in OS9 with a 21" trinitron monitor and a nice 14" CRT preview monitor.
37:28 <Ysjoelfir> I always wanted to have two of those nice professional sony 21" trinitrons
40:17 <Ysjoelfir> Profile Visibility
40:17 <Ysjoelfir> Because you haven't earned money on Upwork in a while, we set your profile to "private."
40:17 <Ysjoelfir> If you want to switch your profile back to "public," either start earning again, sign up for a Freelancer Plus Membership, or contact customer support.
41:02 <Ysjoelfir> are they fucking kidding me? How can I do anything against NOT EARNING some money in a while? Should I go to some random guy and FORCE him to pay me!? Idiots... lets see what mr. cuystomer support says
46:53 <steve30000> Do they expect you to earn money with your profile hidden?
47:52 <hsn> Ysjoelfir: lol, wtf .. i never earned a project with these ppl ..
48:12 <hsn> So i expect im tagged "expiring soon" ? Lol

28:15 <DogWomble> Yeah, those sites can be difficult to get yourself noticed on
29:14 <DogWomble> I did try and utilise Fiverr at some point to see if i could earn a bit of pocket money, you've basically got a saturated market of people doing a race to the bottom so trying to make yourself seen can be tough going

10:05 * Ysjoelfir puts that into his watchlist for tomorrow while working
10:18 <Ysjoelfir> how long did it take to render now?
11:45 <steve30> Not sure actually as I went and got my dinner while it rendered
12:11 <Ysjoelfir> ah, ok
13:59 <steve30> It looks better on my 14" CRT video monitor than it does on a PC tbh
14:33 <Ysjoelfir> thats obvious, the camera was made for those resolutions
14:42 <Ysjoelfir> its like watching a Laserdisk on a UltraHD TV
18:07 <steve30> I did export the video back to tape so I can go and watch it on our fancy TV downstairs and see what it looks like on that
18:56 <Ysjoelfir> you should get one of those rewritable laserdisc things and write that onto that. that would be cool
19:13 <Dmitry_Farad> what is the frame rate in the video?
21:04 <Dmitry_Farad> do you shoot videos in the old format?

00:00 <coppice_> T3sl4: that's only part of a story. someone paused it
00:28 <T3sl4> maybe they needed a still, to order prints
03:18 <Dmitry_Farad> guys, how are you with the weather?
03:45 <Dmitry_Farad> we have an apocalypse, snow is fucked
04:09 <Ysjoelfir> a mix of hail and rain... at roughly +-0... no thanks. I would prefer snow.
06:02 <T3sl4> a dusting of snow here, and from yesterday
06:12 <Dmitry_Farad> the snow also fucked up. and sometimes it sweeps the door
06:25 <T3sl4> got a good uh, 15cm or so a few weeks ago, been pretty chilly since (-18C ish)
06:36 <T3sl4> apparently -14 today
08:25 <steve30> Dmitry_Farad, that video is 50 interlaced fields per second, which I deinterlace to produce 50 frames per second for computer/youtube viewing.
08:33 <Dmitry_Farad> dude, we now have -13 feels like an asshole
08:59 <steve30> It was nice and warm here today, after a freezing weekend.
09:31 <Ysjoelfir> send some of that over, Dmitry_Farad. sounds blyatiful to me
09:50 * steve30 paws at T3sl4 
09:57 <Dmitry_Farad> It's very warm here, too, after -40, we are in siberia in the center of russia
10:15 <T3sl4> yeah, that'll do it
10:31 <Dmitry_Farad> Who are the guys from?
10:37 <Ysjoelfir> oy blin, -40, nice! I would love if it would get cold here some day..
10:44 <T3sl4> i know a few ppl in saskatchewan where it gets about that cold, don't think it's ever been that cold here at least
10:57 <Ysjoelfir> Germanistan here.
12:08 <T3sl4> trumpistan here

24:35 <Dmitry_Farad> how are you doing with the radiation situation?
26:33 * Ampera is from cuomostan
26:44 <Ampera> a very disparate place with an impending ice storm
26:45 <Ampera> yay
31:07 * T3sl4 winterizes Ampera
32:15 * Ampera ices T3sl4 
32:32 <Ampera> iced, smoked, and served for a summer picnic
32:43 <T3sl4> \o/
32:48 * T3sl4 feels beautiful again
33:44 <Ampera> again?
33:54 <Ampera> y/n should I pay 220 bucks and buy a 1TB uSD card for my phone
34:52 <Dmitry_Farad> what for?
34:55 <Ampera> ech, I don't think I will. It's so tempting because it's fucking cool, and because I could store my entire movie collection on it
35:12 <Ampera> buuuuuut, I'm also not in favor of just flushing 220 bucks down the drain like that
35:49 <Ampera> I'll just get a 512GB one which is much cheaper, and I can probably store most, if not all of my collection on my phone after that anyways
35:53 <Ampera> or at least everything I care about
36:32 <Ampera> 823G in total is my video collection it seems
37:54 <steve30> that reminds me, i need new HDD/SSDs
42:21 <steve30> I must say I like the GUI of Adobe Premiere 6 better than that of Kdenlive. Premiere also comes with a nice detailed printed manual which explains just about every function in detail.
42:57 <steve30> Of course Kdenlive has the advantage that it can work with just about any format, including modern ones.
47:59 <Dmitry_Farad> How does Kdenlive work on weak systems?
49:02 <steve30> I used to use it on my Core2Quad and it was fine; but it depends on what you are editing.
49:40 <steve30> If you are editing DV it will be dead easy. If you are editing Full HD 60fps h264, then it will struggle.
50:27 <Dmitry_Farad> щл
50:29 <Dmitry_Farad> ok
53:41 <Dmitry_Farad> What time is where you are right now?)
53:57 <Dmitry_Farad> I have 6:00 in the morning
54:09 <steve30> 22:54
54:37 <Ysjoelfir> 23:54
54:51 <Dmitry_Farad> and where are you from?)
55:01 <Ysjoelfir> as stated before
56:02 <Dmitry_Farad> ok
56:21 <steve30> England
56:48 <Ysjoelfir> You mean Not-anymore-EU-Land?
56:55 <steve30> yup
57:05 <Dmitry_Farad> how is the weather in england? how about the rains?
57:51 <Dmitry_Farad> no. iam from Russia, from sibiria Krasnoyarsk
58:23 <steve30> It was below 0 over the weekend, and we had snow last week.
58:45 <steve30> Today it is 12C and sunny. Its forecast to be approx 10C all week.
59:38 <Dmitry_Farad> I envy you very much)))
01:49 <Dmitry_Farad> please tell me how are you doing with the legalization of marijuana?
02:39 <Ysjoelfir> I dunno. If they do I don't care and wouldn't approove at all
02:57 <steve30> Well, I think it is legal for medical use if you are prescribed it by a doctor (it would have to be a specialist).
03:26 <Ysjoelfir> THAT is true for here as well, and the only use case I agree with that should be legal
04:45 <Dmitry_Farad> 79 / 5000
04:46 <Dmitry_Farad> Результаты перевода
04:52 <Dmitry_Farad> yes, I agree with medical use, as cancer patients, we are completely prohibited
05:15 <steve30> There's this thing, which is for people who use it illegally for a medical condition
05:16 <steve30> https://www.cancard.co.uk
05:40 <Dmitry_Farad> however, it is better to use marijuana than alcohol, it is much better
08:37 <steve30> I've never used it so wouldn't know
09:23 <Dmitry_Farad> better not try)
15:14 <Ysjoelfir> I once "sucked" on one joint. Puked mz brains out. will never ever touch that horrible stuff again

17:21 <rust_collector> YAAY!
17:31 <rust_collector> horrible greetings, electrohead
17:45 <electrohead> horrible indeed
17:47 <electrohead> lol
17:49 <electrohead> hey
18:44 <rust_collector> is it time to play videogames?
25:04 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Retweet: Science girl: Listen to the power surging through these lines when the transformer went down In Louisiana Video by Chris Fitzmorris https://t.co/BqmFcp8U3G https://t.co/oTt51WLvby
25:20 <DogWomble> it's always time to play videogames
26:00 <MrMobodies> Hello
26:08 <rust_collector> heey!
26:33 <MrMobodies> talking of video games might be able to play them on the virtual machines now I got the passthrough working
26:34 <MrMobodies> https://imgur.com/a/MACcPXM
26:59 <MrMobodies> Only needed parameters to get the VGA passthrough working
27:28 <MrMobodies> hypervisor.cpuid.v0 = FALSE
27:28 <MrMobodies> pciPassthru.use64bitMMIO=”TRUE”
27:28 <MrMobodies> pciPassthru.64bitMMIOSizeGB = “64”
27:45 <MrMobodies> the last two I came across from hours of searching
28:00 <MrMobodies> I was getting very tired and I was about give up yesterday
28:06 <electrohead> what model thinkpad is that?
28:14 <MrMobodies> W700
28:25 <MrMobodies> from 2008 or so
29:02 <MrMobodies> served me very well over the years
29:13 Quit: coppice_ ([email protected]) Quit: Konversation terminated!
29:48 <MrMobodies> Dave shown a video of one that was thrown away I think and that had good cooling too
30:01 <MrMobodies> that's why I chose it for the cooling
30:16 <MrMobodies> I think it cost me about £2400
30:31 <MrMobodies> but the first one had to go back 6 months later
30:59 <MrMobodies> anyway I want to get it working in the linux virtual machines
31:10 <MrMobodies> the VGA passthrough
33:20 <MrMobodies> also it didn't require EFI for the Quadro K600 or this FX3800
36:02 <DogWomble> hmmm anyone here know much about 3D printing?
36:21 <DogWomble> i've had someone pose a question as to whether there's an affordable 3D printer that can do 45x45x45cm as a minimum size
36:59 <rust_collector> nope. I know I end up looking at 3d printers every 14 days or so, before I remember that I can not think of anything I want to print
38:53 <Dmitry_Farad> rust_collector hi man) how are you?)
38:53 Join: Beni2 ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
38:58 <rust_collector> but. i think that would be hard to find. I would guess the budget version would be to buy a cheap smaller one, and build a bigger one, and use the small parts to move it around? I do not think I have seen a 45x45 printer
39:28 <DogWomble> aah fair enough :0
39:30 <rust_collector> hey Dmitry. I just got home from work, and I am installing a pizza in my belly
39:36 <DogWomble> you can tell i havent' acutally looked at 3d printing much at all :P
40:13 <rust_collector> Not really me either. I just see what they have for sale, then remember that I don't really want one
40:29 <Dmitry_Farad> not bad, I would also throw pizzas right now)
41:11 <rust_collector> it is not the worst breakfaast I have had
42:26 <rust_collector> DogWomble, what is the guy going to print that is 45cm each way? I hope he has a LOT of time. and don't need much sleep, for the 3 days his print will take
42:44 <Dmitry_Farad> I drink cognac and drink cola, this is my breakfast))))
42:56 <DogWomble> yeah, i'm not sure what he's printing yet :)
43:29 <rust_collector> cognac and coke. that is some capitalist spion stuff
44:31 <Dmitry_Farad> I'm not a spy)))) I just drink cognac)))) I have a day off
44:48 <rust_collector> that is what they always say
47:56 <Dmitry_Farad> do you have a video chat zoom? let's talk live? though I don't speak English very much
48:55 <rust_collector> nope. I do not talk much at all, lol.
49:43 <Dmitry_Farad> ok i'm trying to practice english))
50:27 <Dmitry_Farad> do you speak Spanish or Italian?
50:46 <rust_collector> uhm, no. I barely speak norwegian
51:35 <rust_collector> italian? have you noticed that italian is sort of almost similar to romanian?
52:20 <Dmitry_Farad> ok, I would also like to practice Norwegian)
52:47 <rust_collector> but, whyyyy? that makes no sense.
52:53 <Dmitry_Farad> yes there is
53:32 <Dmitry_Farad> well, yes, I understand it))))
55:34 <rust_collector> now, if you fix the weather, and makes them let me thru the border, maybe I will take the wife on a vacation over there. she likes talking.
56:33 <Dmitry_Farad> with pleasure, I will disperse the clouds)
57:22 <rust_collector> oh good. I will go start the tractor
58:14 <rust_collector> i would actually like to visit that area some time, but probably in summer
58:33 <Dmitry_Farad> stock up with fuel and drive to us)
59:33 <Dmitry_Farad> I would also like to visit you and no matter what time of year
00:19 <rust_collector> oh sure. if you can, just come, we will find a spare room or something.
01:28 <rust_collector> Part of me want to use the rest of the toyota, for a trip like that. it does not have much life left in it. so just drive as far as it goes, and give what is left to someone, then get on a plane back
02:34 <rust_collector> ok, I have to find some more food
04:38 <Dmitry_Farad> I will arrive in an UAZ))) and leave it to you
05:00 <rust_collector> woohoo!
05:41 <rust_collector> i wonder why I like those so much. they look like bread on small wheels
07:56 <Dmitry_Farad> we call it that, bread on wheels))))
08:33 <rust_collector> hah!
08:49 <Dmitry_Farad> there is a good UAZ 469)
09:43 <rust_collector> yeah, those are cool, in a way also, but I just have a thing for the van.
10:18 <rust_collector> how much is one of those over there? either of them, in... not perfect, but usable shape?
12:09 <Dmitry_Farad> 4500 - 6000$
12:57 <rust_collector> mmhmm mmhmm
12:57 <Dmitry_Farad> https://ibb.co/yhNDNYp my view from the window))
13:54 <Dmitry_Farad> how much is the cheapest car you have?
14:38 <rust_collector> the cheapest one I have? hmm, probably the corolla, which I got for paining the house, lol
14:41 <Dmitry_Farad> our cheapest one costs about $ 3500
15:14 <rust_collector> the wifes car was 500nok, which is....
15:35 <rust_collector> around $600
15:58 <rust_collector> 5000nok, not 500
16:08 <Dmitry_Farad> ok
16:49 <rust_collector> but it is a very crappy car. I hope it just refuses to start one of these days, so I can get rid of it
17:01 <Dmitry_Farad> what make and model of the car and what year?
17:12 <rust_collector> that one is a...
17:23 <rust_collector> 2002 chrysler voyager 2.4
18:43 <rust_collector> they are all sort of... not good. but there are not many alternatives, that are similar to it.
19:03 <Dmitry_Farad> wow, we have such a car costs 3000$)
19:12 <rust_collector> I am not sure why, but the wife loves those damn things
19:28 <rust_collector> well, that one would probably be in much better shape
20:19 <Dmitry_Farad> exactly the same year and minimum equipment
21:08 <rust_collector> a long time ago, I had a 1988 or 89 voyager, the box looking one. I did like that one a bit. much more room inside, and the 3 liter mitsubishi engine.
21:27 <rust_collector> I think ours is an "se" whatever that means.
21:56 <rust_collector> it is also 90% patched up holes, and it needs all the brakes replaced, again
22:11 <rust_collector> the windows are pretty good on it
23:54 <rust_collector> hmm, it started snowing again. it has been weeks of around -15, and nice weather. but today, -4 and snow
26:31 <rust_collector> https://ibb.co/bKmTBkN
26:47 <Dmitry_Farad> we have hard pipes here, on the street somewhere - 15
27:20 <rust_collector> hard pipes?
27:40 <Dmitry_Farad> traffic jams
27:49 <rust_collector> oh nice
28:34 <rust_collector> this road ends around 40 meters to the left of that picture, so we do not have too much traffic here
30:20 <rust_collector> hmm, do you have a russian version of ebay, or... somewhere people sell stuff site?
31:21 <Dmitry_Farad> yes, avito.ru there is a lot of stuff
31:57 <rust_collector> nice, thanks
32:24 <Dmitry_Farad> I'm now trying to understand how to sell on ebay) there are many interesting things
32:56 <rust_collector> i would be careful selling there, but yes, there are many interesting things there.
33:25 <rust_collector> buying on ebay seems to be pretty safe, but selling, not so much.
34:05 <Dmitry_Farad> I recently bought a lot of electronic components there)
34:33 <Dmitry_Farad> Thanks, I'll keep it in mind
34:37 <rust_collector> yes, I also buy stuff there.
34:58 <rust_collector> i have been pretty lucky with the stuff I buy there.
35:47 <Dmitry_Farad> I find there things that are not in Russia or at a price lower
36:41 <rust_collector> I find a lot of stuff I want in the us, so the price has to be tripled, because of shipping
37:09 <rust_collector> and, all the things that are really cool and cheap, only run on 110v
37:21 <rust_collector> it eems to be a law
39:09 <Dmitry_Farad> I made myself a 110v transformer and use it in such cases)
39:35 <rust_collector> yes, that is an idea
40:15 <Dmitry_Farad> I also made a 220 V isolation transformer
40:34 <Dmitry_Farad> very much saves from electric shock
40:36 <Dmitry_Farad> )
40:44 <rust_collector> very progressive and safe
41:44 <Dmitry_Farad> right now I'll go out for 20 minutes, go to the store) I need to cook breakfast
00:46 <Dmitry_Farad> I'm alive) it's not even very cold outside)
01:16 <rust_collector> it must have been warm, because you only used 19 minutes
05:58 <rust_collector> sparkman power supplies... that is somehtingI would want in my computer
17:08 <Dmitry_Farad> I have a dipcool installed
17:36 <Dmitry_Farad> I don't know what it costs in a laptop)
19:25 <rust_collector> that avito site does have a LOT of 775 motherboards
20:54 <Dmitry_Farad> yes there are a lot of them they sell, at one time I bought faulty ones, repaired and sold them)
21:34 <Dmitry_Farad> I have a home server on 775
23:28 <rust_collector> I am not sure if I have any left. I think I got rid of them
23:42 * electrohead solders rust_collector to the ceiling
24:01 <rust_collector> you don't have enough flux for that
25:11 <rust_collector> hmm, It looks like I have started to stick random stuff into a breadboard... wth is this supposed to be?
25:47 <Dmitry_Farad> 1gbt network is quite enough, I'm still working at the premiere, videos are loaded quickly, I use ssd everywhere
28:40 <Dmitry_Farad> did not quite understand what random things mean)
31:54 <rust_collector> random things... well, if you close your eyes, and pick a component out of a box, that would be random. I just have no idea what this was supposed to be. I have an opamp, and some wires, and... some other components, that make no sense
36:39 <Dmitry_Farad> I understood)
37:23 <rust_collector> https://www.avito.ru/kuybyshev/mototsikly_i_mototehnika/vezdehod_2070526860
37:29 <Dmitry_Farad> I also have random things on Chinese sites)
37:58 <Dmitry_Farad> oh cool thing!)
38:43 <Dmitry_Farad> https://www.avito.ru/novoaltaysk/mototsikly_i_mototehnika/muravey_m_2_2050890296
38:58 <rust_collector> I am collecting parts to make a small tractor. so I tend to look at all the things I can, for ideas
39:35 <rust_collector> heh. babushka is going to the store
39:46 <Dmitry_Farad> self-propelled vehicle is a cool thing, especially self-assembled
40:15 <Dmitry_Farad> yes in the village so)))
41:02 <Dmitry_Farad> I bought a semi-automatic welding right now I'm studying it) I cook all sorts of things
41:18 <rust_collector> I always need a tractor. but a real tractor is too big
41:46 <rust_collector> semi automatic welding. do you mean wire feed, mig/mag?
42:07 <Dmitry_Farad> What kind of tractor? for sowing or for off-road driving?
42:40 <Dmitry_Farad> wire feed
42:47 <rust_collector> no, just for... hmm, pulling things around, pushing snow. nothing special
43:01 <Dmitry_Farad> and carbon dioxide
43:08 <rust_collector> I do not really need a tractor, but I just NEED a tractor
43:09 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: It's CHIPAGEDDON! this week on @theAmphour with @Chris_Gammell (Yes, Chris spelled it wrong) https://t.co/9PdrEialaX
43:35 <rust_collector> right. that is nice
44:04 <Dmitry_Farad> there are good options in russia, people are remaking simple tractors, adding a bucket to the front

46:28 <Dmitry_Farad> наши кулибины это делают)
46:36 <rust_collector> oops
46:36 <Dmitry_Farad> our kulibins do it)
47:59 <Dmitry_Farad> I myself did similar things for the car when you need to make out a lot of snow
48:31 <Dmitry_Farad> when there is nothing to do in the garage, you are doing such things)
51:52 <Dmitry_Farad> I invent more with electronics, and when I have time I do such things with welding)
53:12 <rust_collector> well. you know what they say. if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
53:28 <rust_collector> but if you have a welder, everything looks like anything
54:14 <Dmitry_Farad> yes, I myself studied to be a welder)
54:49 <Dmitry_Farad> electronics is my second lesson
55:14 <Dmitry_Farad> although I understand more in electronics than in welding)
55:35 <rust_collector> I learnt to dig holes, and blow stuff up. then I went and got a job driving trucks, lol
56:05 <rust_collector> I think I was around 8 when I started "welding"
56:21 <rust_collector> annoying grandpa in the shed
56:29 <Dmitry_Farad> I also worked as a driver, I didn’t like it, right now I work for myself, make equipment
57:21 <Dmitry_Farad> I torture neighbors in the apartment, they drilled at home, and the like)))
57:50 <Dmitry_Farad> father taught welding at age 12)
58:17 <Dmitry_Farad> cooked small structures in the village
58:18 <rust_collector> just put a steel plate on the radiator, and find a blunt drill bit in a hilti, and annoy your neighbors
58:27 Join: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
58:38 <Dmitry_Farad> hah
58:39 <Dmitry_Farad> )
59:26 <rust_collector> i guess it would be hard to find out where the noise comes from...
59:30 <Dmitry_Farad> I torture them every weekend
00:16 <Dmitry_Farad> I don’t have an office right now, I’m building houses
00:56 <Dmitry_Farad> I saw and do other things, the neighbors are not happy, on the balcony I work by welding)))
01:17 <rust_collector> be careful doing that
01:37 <Dmitry_Farad> now we are making an office
01:45 <rust_collector> you will end up with a large heavy machine on the balcony, that you can not get out
02:05 <Dmitry_Farad> yes there were already problems with the police
02:07 <Dmitry_Farad> ))
02:34 <Dmitry_Farad> although the police are fine with it
02:57 <Dmitry_Farad> they only write out warnings
03:38 <rust_collector> I like that I am not in the police.
03:40 <Dmitry_Farad> we are allowed to make noise from 8-00 to 23-00
04:15 <Dmitry_Farad> except Sunday
04:30 <rust_collector> yes, sundays are a waste of time
05:05 <rust_collector> it is 6 to 23 here. except sundays, and religious thing days
05:54 <Dmitry_Farad> what are your noise penalties?
06:06 <rust_collector> I don't know?
06:15 Quit: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) Connection closed
06:47 <Dmitry_Farad> we have a fine of $ 7
07:23 <rust_collector> right here, I would probably have a neighbor come over, if it was too much noise, way too late, but in general, I try to be quiet-ish at night, so they are ok with the few times I have to do something
07:42 <Dmitry_Farad> repeated violation for 20 $
08:37 <rust_collector> i don't think the police cares, unless it is complaints very often
08:46 <Dmitry_Farad> I sit at night soldering or developing circuits, and during the day I saw or knock with a hammer)
09:37 <Dmitry_Farad> the police don't do that much
10:18 <Dmitry_Farad> we have a very line police, they come, write the paper and leave)
10:55 <Dmitry_Farad> and no penalty, just a warning
11:58 <rust_collector> so, how did you make your transformers? did you rewind one, or did you use several, or?
13:38 <Dmitry_Farad> I bought a couple of uninterruptible converters and turned them on in the opposite direction
14:02 <Dmitry_Farad> took at 500 watts
14:37 <Dmitry_Farad> winding transformers is not mine)
15:06 <Dmitry_Farad> also made a 110v transformer
15:46 <Dmitry_Farad> made protection for the short circuit and everything works like a clock
17:30 <rust_collector> tick tock tick tock.......tick tock tick tock ticktock tick
17:42 <Dmitry_Farad> made protection for the short circuit and everything works like a clock
18:35 <Dmitry_Farad> I like to stick my fingers where it is not necessary, the transformer helps out
19:17 <Dmitry_Farad> the most important thing is a rupture of the earth, it saves a lot, otherwise it was shocked so many times

21:18 <rust_collector> they are always there when you don't need them
21:37 <Dmitry_Farad> yes
22:34 <Dmitry_Farad> have you been in this chat for a long time?
22:53 <rust_collector> hmm, I think it has been a year or so?
23:03 <rust_collector> I am not really sure.
23:07 <rust_collector> not very very long
24:19 <Dmitry_Farad> I found this chat from YouTube
24:35 <rust_collector> I think most did
25:03 <Dmitry_Farad> eevblog gave a lot of understanding on electronics
26:27 <Dmitry_Farad> eevblog very motivates me in this topic

27:47 <Dmitry_Farad> I really like to understand electronics, I read a lot of literature, I build my things
27:49 <Dmitry_Farad> рш
27:52 <Dmitry_Farad> hi
27:58 <rust_collector> heh hello
28:12 <rust_collector> or pw, whatever
28:40 <Guest|27729> where are you from guys ??
28:59 <rust_collector> norway, sort of to the south
29:01 <Dmitry_Farad> really want to learn how to program hardware
29:21 <Dmitry_Farad> iam from russia
29:32 <Dmitry_Farad> from sibiria
29:45 <Dmitry_Farad> Krasnoyarsk
29:46 <Dmitry_Farad> )
29:50 <rust_collector> I only like old analog things. I am not really interested in digital things
30:39 <Dmitry_Farad> I learn analog things, but I don't get around digital either
30:46 <Guest|27729> there are lots of content available to the internet to learn
31:02 <Dmitry_Farad> I like amplifiers
31:19 <Guest|27729> digital is also interesting
31:40 <Dmitry_Farad> yes I study a lot, any material
31:55 <Dmitry_Farad> yes
32:18 <rust_collector> i like power supplies. which makes no sense, because i do not have a good use for a power supply. but... meh, it is a thing to do
33:00 <Guest|27729> i like microcontrollers
33:09 <Dmitry_Farad> <Guest|27729> Where are you from?
33:25 <Guest|27729> India
33:34 <Dmitry_Farad> I also love microcontrollers
34:04 <rust_collector> what part of india?
34:11 <Dmitry_Farad> ooo i was in india, had a good cultural experience
34:14 <Guest|27729> Kolkata
34:19 <rust_collector> ooh
34:22 <Dmitry_Farad> )
34:48 <rust_collector> well, hello mr time +5.5 hours
35:03 <Dmitry_Farad> I really like the philosophy of India
35:25 <Dmitry_Farad> yeah)
35:36 <rust_collector> I think there are plenty of different philosophies there. it is a fairly large place
36:04 <Guest|27729> yes
36:19 <Dmitry_Farad> yes, but when I was there it was cool
36:46 <rust_collector> I like how west bengal has the x and a half hour time zone. didn't they think of moving to a whole hour there too?
37:02 <Guest|27729> you can find different culture in every 100 km in India
38:15 <Dmitry_Farad> do time zones make sense?
38:24 <rust_collector> now I wonder if you are that kolkata guy who always stalk me around the internet...
38:41 <Dmitry_Farad> we are all people of the same planet)))
38:58 <rust_collector> are you sure?
39:16 <Dmitry_Farad> yes
39:20 <Dmitry_Farad> da
39:22 <Dmitry_Farad> )))
39:41 <rust_collector> well, some times you have to wonder...
40:05 <Guest|27729> ha ha
40:17 <Guest|27729> no no I am new here
40:19 <Dmitry_Farad> I like the philosophy that we are all one people and we don't need wars !!!)
40:42 <rust_collector> well, we can not all mess with old amplifiers...
40:59 <Dmitry_Farad> )
41:04 <Guest|27729> yup I agree Dmitry
41:14 <rust_collector> Guest|27729, I have been chatting with a guy from kolkata for a few years, on and off
42:46 <Dmitry_Farad> I myself have been in the military for many years, and now I am retired, I have seen many wars and this is not necessary!
42:48 <rust_collector> I think he does mostly computer things, but did send a soldering iron, and some leds and stuff to him, a while ago. so he is not completely uninterested in electronics
43:40 <Dmitry_Farad> yes, even if he soldered the LED, it's already cool))))
43:44 <rust_collector> I was in the military for exactly 9 months, plus a month, because when we gave our guns back, mine had the wrong serial number....
43:51 <Guest|27729> I am trying to build a online community around electronics.
44:02 <rust_collector> cool
44:09 <Dmitry_Farad> cool
44:26 <rust_collector> not as cold as Dmitry, but cool
44:33 <Dmitry_Farad> it is necessary
44:35 <Guest|27729> haha
44:49 <Dmitry_Farad> )
45:46 <rust_collector> I remember mr kolkata almost froze to death, inside, and it was 15c
46:00 <rust_collector> I have to admit that was amusing
46:18 <Dmitry_Farad> <Guest | 27729> what's your name?
47:26 <Dmitry_Farad> I tried to freeze, but it's warm enough outside -15C
47:53 <rust_collector> too much cognac
48:34 <Dmitry_Farad> cognac is good
48:35 <Dmitry_Farad> ))
48:45 <Guest|27729> Guest | 27729
49:04 <rust_collector> so they say. I can not drink that stuff
49:10 <Dmitry_Farad> very warm, in Russia they are heated only like this)
49:49 <Dmitry_Farad> I drink homemade moonshine, I make myself
50:30 <Dmitry_Farad> I like to make my own moonshine
50:31 <Dmitry_Farad> )
50:44 <rust_collector> nice. we used to drink that, but some idiot was selling methanol, so suddenly no one made anything
51:15 <Dmitry_Farad> )
51:54 <Dmitry_Farad> I make good moonshine, and I try it myself)
51:56 <Guest|27729> how do you learn op-amp and all
52:47 <Dmitry_Farad> I study from literature and my experiment
53:13 <Dmitry_Farad> already burned a lot of microcircuits)
54:02 <Guest|27729> I am in intermediate level in microcontroller but don't have much knowledge in analog
54:06 <Dmitry_Farad> do you do radio broadcasting?
54:13 <rust_collector> learn opamp... hmm. well, I guess the basic idea is that it compares the inputs, and does whatever it has to, with the output, to make the inputs the same. it probably does much more, but I think that is the basic idea
55:07 <Dmitry_Farad> well this is it
55:15 <Guest|27729> hmm
55:29 <Dmitry_Farad> he amplifies the signal
55:43 <rust_collector> https://www.ti.com/lit/an/sboa092b/sboa092b.pdf
56:24 <Dmitry_Farad> I'm doing radio, my callsign is RK0AZF
57:20 <Dmitry_Farad> i have a radio transmitter i am trying to transmit radio to long range
57:53 <rust_collector> what do you use as an antenna, living in the 10th floor of an apartment building?
58:07 <Dmitry_Farad> while the farthest where I passed this 3500 km
58:33 <Dmitry_Farad> dipole
58:56 <rust_collector> dipole.
59:27 <Dmitry_Farad> antenna is very cut
59:51 <Dmitry_Farad> want to make big
59:53 <rust_collector> If I got it right, the antenna is almost the most important thing, to send a long distance, with usable sound.
00:08 <rust_collector> but, otoh, I don't now a thing about radio stuff
00:17 <Dmitry_Farad> yes
01:07 <Dmitry_Farad> I measured it out, made the most powerful one for the smallest size
01:56 <rust_collector> dads neighbor is into radios, he has a wire from the roof, and across the lawn, up into some trees. it has to be 40meters or so. I should go talk to him some time.
03:51 <Dmitry_Farad> yes, right now I have an antenna between two houses made, 40 meters range takes
04:08 <Dmitry_Farad> power 15 watts

07:44 <rust_collector> they shut down most of the fm radio stuff here, and now I can hear am radio from weird places at night
08:45 <Dmitry_Farad> well cool, maybe someday you will hear me on the air
08:57 <rust_collector> I get 1 or 2 channels from england, usually one french, and there is 2-3 from somewhere, I believe one is probably ukranian or belarusian
09:30 <rust_collector> i am just using the radio in the car. not something special.
09:47 <Dmitry_Farad> maybe one of them is mine))
10:14 <rust_collector> but getting rid of all the fm things, seems to have cleared the air enough for other signals
10:27 <rust_collector> yeah, who knows?
10:58 <Dmitry_Farad> possibly
11:35 <rust_collector> so, I don't have more mayonez, and I don't have oil... I might as well go to bed
12:10 <Dmitry_Farad> )
12:54 <Dmitry_Farad> I have 6000 km of signal before you, it's hard to fart
12:58 <rust_collector> wth? I had lots of both yesterday?
13:14 <Dmitry_Farad> but I will try)
13:18 <rust_collector> it is hard to fart?
13:52 <Dmitry_Farad> yes
14:22 <rust_collector> google says it is just 5984.2 km
14:23 <Dmitry_Farad> I will try to tune the antenna and give
15:06 <Dmitry_Farad> I had a maximum transmission for 3000 km))
15:06 <rust_collector> 83 hours driving. I have to look at that map
15:20 <Dmitry_Farad> ))
15:25 <rust_collector> you have to give me 66 watts!
15:40 <rust_collector> so I can hear you fart
16:01 <Dmitry_Farad> well, not so much power
16:16 <Dmitry_Farad> )
16:46 <Dmitry_Farad> I'll climb onto the roof and do things))
16:57 <rust_collector> you can fix that. you like amplifiers and stuff...
17:24 <Dmitry_Farad> I will assemble an amplifier on a lamp
17:48 <rust_collector> ok
19:14 <Dmitry_Farad> you need to buy lamps from the military and make an amplifier))
19:23 <rust_collector> heh
19:37 <rust_collector> the vacuum tubes?
19:44 <Dmitry_Farad> yes
20:51 <rust_collector> Ysjoelfir gave me a pair of pcl86 tubes. I do plan to use them, when i have figured out the power supply stuff for them
22:09 <Dmitry_Farad> 6п3с military amplifiers use quite powerful
22:26 Quit: arch ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
22:44 <Dmitry_Farad> I was a radio operator in the army, I tried many lamps)
23:46 <Dmitry_Farad> there are many such in the back room, experimenting
24:32 <rust_collector> When I was in the military, we had a radio in the back of out jeep. that thing was probably from just after the war. When I got there, one of the first things I had to do, was to fish that radio out of the sea, because someone had dropped it thru the ice. so it had been in the sea over the rest of the winter. But we got it up, and they just hosed it out with water, and put it on a radiator, and the damn thing worked ok
25:12 <rust_collector> Not that we ever used to for anything.
25:50 <Dmitry_Farad> yes, the radio of those years is forever)))
26:37 <Dmitry_Farad> worked with systems from 40s and they worked like a clock
26:59 <rust_collector> we only got old crap, because no one liked us, lol
27:13 <rust_collector> which was fine. we could do out own thing
29:28 <rust_collector> I think we only had 3 real things to do, in the time I was there. one time, was that we were given 20 minutes to teach xx americans how to ski, the second was to pull out stuff stuck in mud, and the 3rd was to clear snow off a halfway collapsed house. So that was a year well spent
29:55 <Dmitry_Farad> we worked with old shit but it worked)))
30:16 <rust_collector> we did a lot of driving around, just looking at different places, went fishing, and such.
31:21 <Dmitry_Farad> we dripped and shot a lot, all kinds of weapons and the like
32:00 <Dmitry_Farad> i worked on radio stations, they were in a sad state
33:37 <Dmitry_Farad> then I learned the morse code and transmitted the encryption between the aria
34:21 <rust_collector> I didn't shoot a lot. which was fine. I did figure out that the mini rocket launcher things was just the right diameter to fix the pipe for the rain gutter, after we smashed those when plowing snow
35:14 <Dmitry_Farad> and intercepted American messages)))
35:20 <rust_collector> just in case you wonder why some rain gutters up north have triggers, and sights
36:58 <Dmitry_Farad> did not quite understand the last message, can I write something differently?
37:43 <Dmitry_Farad> about the transfer of Americans, they use an open transfer code))))
38:13 <rust_collector> hmm, ok.
38:21 <Dmitry_Farad> it is easily decrypted
38:23 <Dmitry_Farad> ))
39:02 <rust_collector> well, I guess most of the messages was " do you want burgers or pizza?"
39:10 <rust_collector> "pizza"
39:16 <rust_collector> "ok"
39:40 <Dmitry_Farad> something like that))))
39:42 <Dmitry_Farad> )
39:43 <rust_collector> "joe says we don't have pizza, do you want burgers?"
43:22 <Dmitry_Farad> no, I will have pizza, I will have a hamburger with a rocket))
44:19 <rust_collector> how far away is irkutsk, it looks like around 1000km?
44:36 <Dmitry_Farad> while the Americans are figuring out a hamburger or cheeseburger, we are deploying the earth-air complex)))))
45:43 <rust_collector> always cheeseburger!
46:09 <Dmitry_Farad> something like that
46:31 <Dmitry_Farad> ))
47:39 <rust_collector> I noticed irkutsk when I was in school, because it is a bit difficult to pronounce. I just like the name
48:31 <Dmitry_Farad> I noticed irkutsk when I was in school, because it is a bit difficult to pronounce. I just like the name
48:41 <Dmitry_Farad> Irkutsk is a very cold place in Russia)
48:57 <rust_collector> well, I still like the name
49:07 <Dmitry_Farad> only Khabarovsk is colder
50:01 <Dmitry_Farad> I was in Irkutsk, a very nice city, but there are a lot of factories
50:41 <Dmitry_Farad> the air is very gassed, there is nothing to breathe
51:13 <Dmitry_Farad> in Krasnoyarsk the same situation
51:32 <Dmitry_Farad> where I live
51:59 <rust_collector> i wonder what the car rental place would say, if I rented a car, and drove like an idiot to vladivostok, and said it was stolen
52:59 <Dmitry_Farad> I think they will say what kind of car you owe))
53:12 <rust_collector> hah
53:30 <Dmitry_Farad> it doesn't work like that here))))
54:30 <rust_collector> I guess it would be safer if i arranged someone to actually steal it
55:22 <Dmitry_Farad> I think yes it would be safer
56:13 <Dmitry_Farad> we have a lot of cars stolen, and no one can do about it
57:00 <Dmitry_Farad> the guys from the theft are very staffed, I intercept the codes and go)))
01:15 <Dmitry_Farad> our guys still use all sorts of transceivers)
05:33 <rust_collector> I am reading about using rental cars outside the country. there are lots of weird rules
06:24 <rust_collector> if you rent from hertz, if you get a volvo, tesla, or bmw, it is not allowed to go into italy
06:54 <rust_collector> not allowed to drive in africa
07:07 <rust_collector> that is ok, I can manage that part
10:20 <Dmitry_Farad> and why? in russia you can drive a vehicle everywhere
12:56 <Dmitry_Farad> I understand that there are restrictions on the entry of nonresident citizens?
14:21 <rust_collector> this is just what the rental company says. it is not a law. but you can get a pretty large bill if you do anything that you are not allowed to
15:26 <rust_collector> I just think it is weird that you are not allowed to drive those 3 brands of car into italy. I am almost sure even a bmw works in italy.
16:08 <Dmitry_Farad> I can't tell all the secrets of the military industry))) I will be executed if so
17:00 <Dmitry_Farad> although in a closed chat I can transfer data, but only in a closed one)
17:40 <Dmitry_Farad> I'm like Snowden)))
18:28 <Dmitry_Farad> I know a lot on military topics))
19:36 <Dmitry_Farad> I served in secret service in the troops
19:37 <Dmitry_Farad> )
20:02 <rust_collector> me too. I am not even sure if they noticed I was there
20:41 <Dmitry_Farad> we communicated with punched cards)
21:06 <Dmitry_Farad> and there was solomon reed's code)
21:46 <rust_collector> I communicated with leaving the edge of pizza crust on tables, But no one answered
22:12 <Dmitry_Farad> )
22:32 <Dmitry_Farad> then they are not in the subject
23:48 <Dmitry_Farad> I have keys to decrypt messages, they are expired, but there is an algorithm
24:37 <rust_collector> I actually drove past the place I was in the military, just before new year. there is not much left. the house i was in is gone, and there are regular houses all over where out camp was
25:37 <Dmitry_Farad> I served very far, near Japan
26:25 <rust_collector> that is why I want to go to vladivostok some day, so I can pee in the direction of japan
26:55 <Dmitry_Farad> we played them as much as possible, they helped us
27:37 <Dmitry_Farad> Japan is a very cool country
28:05 <rust_collector> it is also where all the weird stuff is from
28:12 <Dmitry_Farad> they are the most promising now
28:27 <rust_collector> eeh. promising what?
28:42 <Dmitry_Farad> I was next to them in the army
28:54 <rust_collector> yees
29:24 <Dmitry_Farad> they are very friendly and share technology
30:06 <Dmitry_Farad> a lot of things from there I learned for myself
30:10 <rust_collector> do you think that had anything to do with you kidnapping their families, maybe?
30:24 <rust_collector> ok ok, i show you
30:44 <EEVBlog> New EEVBlog Tweet: Ok, so I'm used to spam, but from a 10M sub Youtuber? WTF @Sidemen No one else is going to go to the effort to spam your video, so...

31:07 <Dmitry_Farad> no I do not think so
33:10 <Dmitry_Farad> Japan is a very progressive country
41:15 <rust_collector> I just ordered a few opamps. maybe I will get them before summer, lol
47:03 <rust_collector> I wonder what kind of electronics community guest 293726384938 is trying to make.
49:34 <T3sl4> an unholy army?
49:48 <rust_collector> probably
03:51 <rust_collector> ok, it is 7, time for a nap. good night
34:56 <rust_collector> I am thinking that maybe I should cut a pentagram shaped slot in the support and insulation in the hood of the wifemobile, so that she gets a nice pentagram every time there is snow on it
46:19 <T3sl4> that would be neat

15:57 <K> oh, it looks sunny and warm over there
37:43 <DogWomble> why oh why is getting someone to help code up a script for a data migration between two CMS's so difficult?
38:00 Join: TheDude ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
38:16 <DogWomble> *proceeds to repeatedly bang head against table until his brain bleeds*
41:11 <DogWomble> basically had one person say it's possible but then come through with their coding skills aren't up to scratch, then had someone say it's possible then go quiet on me for 2 weeks and blame it on covid, then had someone say they can do it and then spent several hours explaining the concept of logging in, then had someone say they can do tit then admit that they arent' a developer
41:39 <DogWomble> and this is after i've given them basic psdeudocode and some information i've gleaned after pulling apart one of the database schemas
41:54 <DogWomble> and the only reason i'm not doing this myself is last time i coded was when visual basic 6 was still a thing
42:13 <Ampera> you're doing a schema to schema migration?
42:23 <DogWomble> yeah, that's it :)
42:30 <Ampera> those are fun pains in the ass
42:58 <DogWomble> yeah, i know they're a pain in the ass - i know they're in theory possible, you just find where things are in the old schema then toss it about to where it needs to be in the new schema
43:26 <Ampera> While that's true, schemas are often poorly documented, and quite intricate, with thousands of variables and dozens of tables to look at
43:27 <DogWomble> i'm just getitng a bit sick of people saying they're willing to do it and then either disappear on me or you realise they don't have the skills they promised
43:31 <Ampera> at least with the software I work with
43:47 <Ampera> Don't worry, I won't offer, because I know I don't have the time :P
43:50 <DogWomble> yeah, though i think i've picked apart the old schema well enough :)
44:05 <Ampera> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
44:11 <Ampera> what sort of DB servers are they
44:24 <K> noone wants to migrate data
44:25 <DogWomble> it's all MySQL, going from SilverStipe to WordPress
44:31 <K> that kind of tasks sucks
44:44 <Ampera> I like it because I'm masochistic like that
45:06 <DogWomble> basically the long history of SilverStripe and the developers that convinced them it was a good idea failing to deliver basically means that we're hoping to abandon it
45:38 <Ampera> Have you looked if anyone else has created a migration script?
46:06 <DogWomble> yeah there's CMS2CMS and similar services ... the quotes are in excess of the $US5000 mark because they charge per article
46:28 <Ampera> no I mean free
46:33 <DogWomble> that's the sort of budget we don't have, and it's kinda silly that they're charging per article when the script they're using is exactly the same
46:38 <DogWomble> i have yet to find anything that's free sadly :(
46:49 <Ampera> then presumably if they are, it's because they can
47:05 <DogWomble> yeah, i'm aware of that :)
47:13 <Ampera> how many articles do you ahve
47:20 <DogWomble> it's currently a little over 10,000
47:34 <Ampera> It'd be a pain in the ass, but if you seriously got nobody, have you thought about doing it by hand?
47:46 <DogWomble> that might be a last resort - but that would be weeks/months potentially
47:57 <hsn> K, its always sunny and warm
48:06 <hsn> sometimes spicy warm
48:29 <Ampera> does SilverStripe have a REST API?
48:53 <Ampera> if you just need to move articles, I can probably write you a script to do that API to API
49:25 <DogWomble> i'm just trying to work out whether it does have REST
49:33 <K> ir is not just articles, it is media and links as well
49:39 <DogWomble> I haven't actually investigated that yet
49:46 <K> and god forbid, comments or follows or any of that social crap
50:01 <Ampera> DogWomble, do you have stored videos/pictures/comments?
50:20 <DogWomble> we do have pictures, afaik no stored videos, and comments we're ditching because they were all spam
50:31 <Ampera> I can probably do pictures
50:34 <DogWomble> we're doing something slightly 'custom' with the images though
50:35 <Ampera> (if there is a good API)
50:44 <Ampera> S3 buckets?
50:46 <K> this work is shoveling horse shit from one can into another
51:02 <DogWomble> @K that is a very good analogy right now :)
51:19 <Ampera> if they're just linked with bbcode (or whatever) and not actually stored and embedded then that's not even a problem
51:43 <DogWomble> yeah, they're basically featured images - and they're basically database entries
51:50 <Ampera> that's worse
51:52 <DogWomble> i've found out where they live in SilverStripe
51:52 <Ampera> much worse
52:11 <DogWomble> yeah, it's kinda silly i think :)
52:18 <Ampera> but, if it's exposed by the API, I can still probably deal with it
55:39 <K> indecent exposure
57:30 <DogWomble> any exposure to me is indecent
