13:25:24 <electrohead> epoxy needs to dry and cure, then it's wiring time
13:25:56 <electrohead> I just want the supports nice and sturdy, as I don't have a proper drill press, therefore the holes I finished off with the dremel...
13:26:18 <electrohead> but, this is version 1 of the QFH antenna. there *will* be a second one
13:26:19 <electrohead> :D
13:26:22 <rust_collector> i just wonder about the underground sunlight it mentions
13:27:14 <electrohead> lmfao
13:28:14 <rust_collector> well, hope it works well for you
13:36:36 <rust_collector> why does your meter have arrows drawn on it?
13:37:57 <electrohead> I bought it used from ebay, it came like that
13:38:10 <rust_collector> heh
13:40:02 <electrohead> still need to repair it, too
13:40:20 <electrohead> the ohmeter side has a weird drift issue
13:40:32 <electrohead> but voltage and current measurements are ok
13:40:51 <electrohead> then again, I'd like something more modern
13:43:05 <rust_collector> well, do you use the modern volts much? or is it the new ohms you are after?
13:43:51 <rust_collector> I really like mr steves meter. I am not sure why, but...
13:44:17 <electrohead> ?
13:45:07 <rust_collector> ooh, tractor guy is awake. that is interesting. we are having a mini blizard here. and it is +3c, so it is like someone is shooting you in the face with a snow shotgun
13:46:19 <rust_collector> http://stevecoates.net/cc_load/ckt2.JPG
13:53:36 <electrohead> ahh, I like that
13:54:00 <rust_collector> it is just so compact and... probably does all I would need
13:54:33 <rust_collector> heh, have you seen inside one of the uni-t bench meters?
13:54:57 <electrohead> not yet
13:55:19 <rust_collector> there is nothing in there. but they are big
13:57:42 <rust_collector> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siHyden_Oig
14:01:03 <rust_collector> around 5 minutes into that
14:23:38 <rust_collector> hahaaaaa, I know at least 3 neighbors who will get a good workout tomorrow
14:24:57 <rust_collector> but I wonder how long it will take mr tractor guy to figure out that the road is just half of what he is plowing

14:37:04 <Ampera> they're all indoor cats
14:37:21 <Ampera> I think some prey birds might have come up from NYC and started harassing our local population
14:37:29 <rust_collector> maybe
14:37:52 <Ampera> I got footage of a hawk tearing one of those little birds apart a couple weeks ago

18:59:08 <Halcyon> Ew
18:59:08 <Halcyon> Why
18:59:32 <steve30> I'll dig out my old VM which I already have installed somewhere but I think I'll try and install it natively at some point

19:48:33 <Halcyon> How are you?
19:50:33 <steve30> My new HDD still hasn't shipped
19:50:46 <Halcyon> What did you order?
19:51:09 <steve30> A 4TB seagate Ironwolf and a 500GB Samsung Evo Plus 970
19:51:42 <Halcyon> Ah neat
19:53:48 <K> i am resonably.
19:58:20 <Halcyon> I am looking at rockby.com.au for specials on stuff I have absolutely no need for
19:58:23 <Halcyon> But might need some time :P
19:58:39 <Halcyon> Like $7 for a tube of 24 DIP-24 sockets
20:03:41 <steve30> Windows 10 doesn't seem to like this particular Virtual Box
20:03:49 <Halcyon> Oh?
20:05:55 <steve30> I wonder if I ought to try a newer version. This is version 1709
20:12:34 <steve30> Now, if I install Windows 10 on my SSD, will it overwrite my LILO bootloader?
20:12:52 <Halcyon> Yep
20:13:13 <Halcyon> VirtualBox supports W10 no problems, done it many times
20:13:30 <steve30> I know, I just booted it on my old machine, but it won't boot on this new machine :/
20:13:53 <Halcyon> Have you enabled the required virtualisation options in your BIOS/UEFI?
20:14:00 <Halcyon> Things like VT-d and such
20:14:11 <steve30> goodness knows
20:14:16 <steve30> But Windows XP works in virtualbox
20:14:17 <Halcyon> Well check silly boy
20:14:25 <Halcyon> Yes, because Windows XP is good
20:14:30 <Halcyon> Windows 10 is garbage
20:16:26 <steve30> Funny how people say that. Way back, people said XP was garbage and 2000 was good :)
20:16:59 <Halcyon> Windows XP was never garbage
20:17:06 <Halcyon> Only those who had no idea said that
20:17:28 <Halcyon> Windows XP was a shining beacon compared to what came before it (Windows ME, Windows Vista)
20:18:01 <Halcyon> The best versions of Windows ever were 3.1/3.11, 95c, 98se, 2000, XP and 7
20:20:49 * steve30 pets his Windows XP ThinkPad
20:22:02 <Halcyon> IBM or Lenovo?
