00:00:34 <Reg7805> no i prefer to use open source software anyway, because im trying to make linux my daily driver but his properitary software is making it very diffucult
00:00:58 <electrohead> Reg7805: you could always use a virtual machine, if possible?
00:01:05 <electrohead> but yeah, linux all the way is nice :p
00:01:37 <arch> haven't used windows for anything professional since 2012 or so
00:02:25 <Reg7805> yes i do use virtual machines, i have ibm x3650 m4 server for that
00:03:16 <arch> look at mr moneybags right here
00:03:36 <electrohead> lol
00:04:26 <Reg7805> mr moneybags??
00:05:25 <arch> yea, as in rich mofo
00:06:01 <Reg7805> no not rich actually
00:06:44 <Reg7805> i was lucky to even get a server for learning purposes

00:14:34 <steve30> I just received a box from Australia
00:15:35 <nuclearcatlb> It seems forum spits sometimes 502 Bad Gateway
00:16:18 <nuclearcatlb> Guys, what is best IRC client for Linux? Smuxi is terrible, no autocompletion on @nick, no search, etc etc
00:16:19 <Reg7805> yes, it does, smae with me aswell
00:16:37 <steve30> I use Hexchat on linux
00:16:52 <therealazzurro> that's due to php processes maxing out according to gnif. they are still only running on one instead of two load balanced nodes iirc
00:17:35 <T3sl4> rather slow as well, but yeah, to be expected
00:17:53 <nuclearcatlb> Thank you @steve30
00:18:22 <steve30> I'm sure there are other good ones. I have indeed used others years ago, but stuck with hexchat
00:18:58 <therealazzurro> yeah it is so slow that nobody has replied to my cc mode lab supply oscillation issue yet, for almost HALF AN HOUR!!11 :D

00:19:54 <therealazzurro> haha :D
00:19:57 Quit: nuclearcatlb ([email protected]) EOF from client
00:20:33 <therealazzurro> how're you all doing dis fancy color x is doing y on z stuff :D
00:21:01 <nuclear_> Hexchat is way better!
00:22:20 * electrohead throws weechat at everyone
00:23:25 <T3sl4> don't wee on me
00:25:55 <arch> is this correct? this is what's in the TI appnote for sepic comp: load pole estimated: 1 / [ 2 x pi x R_load x L2 x C_out ]
00:26:35 <arch> i thought it was 1 / 2*pi*radical(L*C) but might be mistaken
00:27:58 <arch> nvm i was thinking resonant freq
00:28:01 Join: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
00:28:04 <therealazzurro> i wish dave would do a video on opamp control loop compensation and stabilization. just showing some examples using the scope how the result changes if he changes or puts in certain values and why, with some theoretical background and stuff... kinda lot of work though, i guess..
00:28:28 <arch> yeah, for sure...it's confusing shit too. but im slowly getting the hang of it
00:28:42 <arch> like 2 months ago i compensated my first buck reg, so that was fun
00:29:30 <therealazzurro> i envy you. for me, having absolutely no education on EE, this is a complete mistery to me.
00:29:42 <Reg7805> learning opamps at the college, intresting, i have learned more math than theory, lol
00:30:04 <arch> im not in the EE field either therealazzurro
00:30:08 <therealazzurro> absolutely no education besides every single video dave made, only understanding like 40% of many of his videos which go in-depth
00:30:29 <therealazzurro> even more envying then :D
00:30:54 <arch> IT pays enough money for me to afford the fancy toys that EE get to work with. well, most of the fancy toys anyways...im never gonna be able to afford those $200k 10GHz scopes and whatnot :D
00:31:28 <therealazzurro> yeah and dave pulls those out of the dumpster. plays with them and puts them back in xD
00:31:54 <therealazzurro> Reg7805: i wish i would have learned that in school/college
00:32:37 <Reg7805> that is anooying as hell when poeple good working stuff into the dumpster
00:32:56 <arch> or awesome as hell. depends on if you're the one dumpster diving
00:33:06 Quit: steve30 ([email protected]) Changing hosts
00:33:06 Join: steve30 ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
00:33:42 <therealazzurro> IT pays for many toys here as well. scope, multimeters, tons of parts... but still no professional lab psu or a electronic load
00:33:47 <Reg7805> yes, it is fun when i find stuff but in the there is barelly anything good in the dumpsters
00:34:41 <arch> bruh, a scope is $350 for quad channel, and $250 for dual channel 100MHz
00:34:51 <electrohead> I wish there were dumpsters with o-scopes here where I live :/
00:35:32 <arch> lab psu is $100 used off ebay, and you can get those beefy as fuck HP or agilent ones that go in a rack
00:35:50 <Reg7805> i wish there was any type of electronics in the dumpster where i live
00:35:54 <arch> forget buying those shitty made in china 10A lab psus. tehy explode
00:36:37 <hsn> arch lol
00:36:41 <hsn> I thought so
00:36:45 <hsn> I ve two
00:37:07 <Reg7805> i have managed year go to snap up agilent 6642A lab power supply from ebay for £150
00:37:08 <hsn> Didnt use them though
00:37:51 <K> oh look, it is hsn
00:38:07 <hsn> K: live and alive
00:39:05 <hsn> Arch they didnt explode .. u know why?
00:39:18 <arch> why
00:39:27 <hsn> Because i dont use them
00:39:36 <arch> you don't say? *nicholas cage face*
00:39:38 <hsn> Muahahaha
00:39:52 <K> poor hsn has fever
00:40:14 <hsn> K im ok now .. just coughing .. no
00:40:24 <hsn> No fever or any other covid stuff
00:41:25 <K> so you are basically sitting at home and getting paid by employer/king ?
00:42:13 <arch> leeching of that oil money
00:42:22 <arch> it's gonna run out in 10 years tho
00:42:38 <K> it is gonna run out in 10 years for last 30 years
00:43:17 <arch> 4th time is the charm
00:43:24 <K> the other side of "fusion is just 10 years away", eh
00:43:31 <arch> lol word
00:43:37 <arch> or returning to the moon
00:43:56 <K> going to moon to collect rocks makes no sense
00:44:02 <arch> how much you wanna bet this SLS mission to the moon will get delayed again
00:44:07 <Reg7805> need all that helium3 from the moon for fussion
00:44:17 <arch> that's a possiblity
00:44:55 <K> yeah, the tech tree is not that well explained
00:45:14 <K> and silly humans just bang into wall for years and years
00:46:07 <arch> we're stuck with Kerbal Space Program for the next 20 years until then
00:46:26 <electrohead> that's a fun game
00:47:53 <arch> i have 1100 hours on it
00:48:06 <arch> been waiting 7 fucking years for multiplayer
00:49:26 <Reg7805> i think there is new kerbal space program is comming?
00:50:41 <arch> that was supposed to have been out last year, but they delayed it until at least 2022 i believe
00:50:58 <hsn> K, unfortunatelly until sunday
00:51:10 <arch> https://www.kerbalspaceprogram.com/game/kerbal-space-program-2/
00:51:13 <arch> launching 2022
00:51:28 <hsn> arch and K i actually think oil price affected us "the poor ppl" :D
00:51:50 <hsn> for many, its not very satisfying here ..
00:52:03 <hsn> well, fck the wealthy ppl ..
00:52:21 <hsn> :D the ones here i mean .. they do nothing and own a bugatti
00:54:27 <K> you you do not have a small oil pump in back yard?
00:58:05 <K> fun fact wrt covid: my gf donates blood regularly, and after last time (~6 weeks ago) got call from donor ppl saying she has antibodies, like a lot, over 100 (baseline is 0.05 or somth)
00:58:27 <K> never had any symptoms, no known associates had any either
00:59:08 <K> for shits and gigles we both go and do blood test for antibodies
00:59:17 <K> she still has over 100, i have 0.05
00:59:32 <Reg7805> it is wierd that some people in the same area do get the virus and others dont
00:59:37 <Reg7805> lol
01:00:28 <K> not even same are, same apartment and room and everything
01:01:27 <Reg7805> yes that what i meant to say
01:01:31 <therealazzurro> arch: i know, i have a SDS1104X-E 100MHz quad channel scope. as a lab psu I'd go for something in the DP832 range (fits V/A range and pricepoint needs pretty well)
01:02:05 <Reg7805> therealazzurro have you mod that cope to 200MHz?
01:02:15 <therealazzurro> no, no need to
01:02:46 <Reg7805> yes, just asking, i have the same scope aswell, but i have not moded it
01:04:08 <therealazzurro> regarding lab PSU I'm working with an old selfmade one from my grandpa 0-50V 0-10A if i need "brutal power", a self-made (by me) psu 0-16V -0-4A and my most recent project self-made psu 0-24V 0-1A
01:04:43 <Reg7805> i will be making my first power supply soon i hope after my studies
01:05:07 <therealazzurro> that's all I have and so far I've always got along with it but having a professional Lab PSU at some point would still be nice
01:05:37 <therealazzurro> cool!
01:05:57 <Reg7805> yes it be nice, use agilent power supply for reparing laptop and stuff because low noise
01:06:10 <therealazzurro> you can take a look at my 0-16V 0-4A project here, if you want: https://github.com/mamama1/LabPSU_Darlington
01:06:55 <therealazzurro> i managed to get this thing kind of stable with help from various forums
01:07:06 Quit: old-jo ([email protected]) Quit: Leaving
01:07:33 <therealazzurro> and it is not too slow in CC mode, at least it doesn't have thousands of µF right across the output like the riglol DP832
01:07:41 <Reg7805> cool and use a teensy, i got couple weeks ago, to learn
01:08:05 <therealazzurro> yes but i was using the arduino framework
01:08:26 <therealazzurro> i'm way to dumb to be using this on any kind of lower level xD
01:08:42 <therealazzurro> paul stoffregen is one of my heroes :D
01:09:20 <Reg7805> well i study your psu, im just begineer
01:09:28 <therealazzurro> the crispy 128x64 OLED display is one of the nicest things of this design, VERY nice and sharp looking at the values
01:10:17 <therealazzurro> don't take "my" design as best practice, i think it is quite unusual to do it like this and most certainly not best practice. but it was easy for me to kind of understand and build.
01:10:27 <Reg7805> yea, nice screen is all ways nice, i dont that cheap looking aurdino dgit screens
01:11:18 <Reg7805> i will be building my own design everthing, but enjoy looking how other poeple do it, and might learn something
01:11:20 <therealazzurro> if I'm looking at most of the other analog psu circuit schematics out there, i hardly understand anything
01:11:50 <Reg7805> me too
01:12:03 <therealazzurro> a dumbed down version of the design you were looking at is this: https://github.com/mamama1/LabPSU_CA1
01:12:30 <Reg7805> endup building and probing the circuit to understand
01:12:39 <therealazzurro> this is the one I'm currently working on, the github files are far away from current but i will update them soon. but you should get an idea
01:13:17 <therealazzurro> i have understood my design like 95%. what i have definitely not understood is the compensation part :D
01:13:52 <therealazzurro> the LabPSU_CA1 should be doable under around 100USD/AUD/EUR
01:14:11 <therealazzurro> the teensy one costs around 200 bucks or even more, never exactly calculated it
01:14:51 <Reg7805> i will definetly look over schamtics
01:15:13 <Reg7805> yea cost is the issue when making your own psu
01:22:38 <therealazzurro> if i count together how much i have spent for making those two PSUs, I could well have afforded a very decent professional one, even from better vendors than rigol or siglent... but this way it definitely was more fun and i have learned a ton
01:22:57 <Reg7805> i hope some one will be able to help you with the compensation, i would like to help but im still noob
01:23:43 <Reg7805> i agree, building your own is fun and very educational
01:24:01 <therealazzurro> Amongst others, Teslacoil and David Hess as well as Kleinstein have been very helpful in the past. But i still need more help if I want this control loop to be really stable
01:24:41 <Reg7805> are you on the forum?
01:25:03 <therealazzurro> They are not just random forum members who replied to my posts, they have a place in my heart! :D
01:25:08 <therealazzurro> yes, nemail2
01:25:35 <rust_collector> HELLO!
01:25:50 <therealazzurro> from the other side?
01:25:55 <Reg7805> im new to the eevblog, i will be registering with the forum, one i find a username
01:26:11 <Reg7805> need think a good username
01:26:12 <rust_collector> close to the other side. stuck somewhere in between
01:26:37 <therealazzurro> same here
01:27:02 <therealazzurro> what about OPA4197. Very nice Quad Op-Amp
01:28:06 <Reg7805> i will think about, prety much new to internet
01:28:20 <Reg7805> cool username tho
01:28:22 <therealazzurro> are you angela merkel?
01:28:55 <Reg7805> no
01:29:16 <rust_collector> that would be cool. I want her to make a little power supply
01:29:26 <therealazzurro> LM7805CT/NOPB would also be cool, if you want to stick to 7805. that's a TI 7805 variant. TI fanboy here.
01:30:00 <therealazzurro> i was just wondering, because angela merkel a few years ago said, that the internet is new "to all of us"
01:30:14 <therealazzurro> there were memes, I can tell oyu
01:30:18 <brayden> "new to the internet"?
01:30:25 <brayden> tbh a weird concept now
01:30:25 <Reg7805> the only reason i pciked 7805, i was playying around with 7805 when i logged into the irc chat
01:30:30 <brayden> seeing as the internet is so pervasive
01:31:04 <Reg7805> im never been on the social side of the internet before
01:31:10 <therealazzurro> not in eastern germany i guess xD
01:31:25 <rust_collector> well... grandpa probably thinks the internet is this new thing. people at work has never been alive without internet.
01:32:50 <Reg7805> have been using the internet since 2005
01:33:13 <Reg7805> bloddy wifi was new to me
01:33:20 <therealazzurro> are you a youngster?
01:33:28 <Reg7805> yes, 19
01:33:31 <rust_collector> yes, and very cute too
01:33:32 <brayden> geez
01:33:38 <brayden> now even I'm feeling old
01:34:07 <rust_collector> brayden that has something to do with your....age....
01:34:12 <K> old farts all around eh
01:34:13 <therealazzurro> that explains, I'm feeling old with my winsock and win 3.1 and dos 5 stuff in my memories now :D
01:34:18 <brayden> yeah well I used to be the baby in every channel
01:34:24 <therealazzurro> mine smelling VERY old.
01:34:31 <therealazzurro> speaking of which, gotta run xD
01:34:39 <brayden> same deal at work
01:34:55 <Reg7805> what is the age group here?
01:35:00 <rust_collector> smelly socks and running.
01:35:09 <therealazzurro> if it only was the socks
01:35:12 <therealazzurro> 34
01:35:23 <brayden> 25
01:35:29 <hsn> K, oil pump back yard ? no .. we actually have it as drinking water
01:35:43 <rust_collector> uuh. 1979. 40 something
01:35:54 <brayden> oh wow the magic number
01:35:57 <K> 41 at least
01:36:16 <K> 42, even
01:36:34 <brayden> I've had my birthday, '96
01:37:50 <Reg7805> well i enjoy talking to yous all, i learn something everyday
01:38:41 <rust_collector> 84% of it is wrong in some cases, but may be correct in other cases... enjoy figuring out what it is this time
01:39:39 <K> i wont.
01:39:52 <K> 84% is quite enough.
01:39:55 <rust_collector> hsn !!!!
01:40:10 <rust_collector> hsn is 84% wrong all the time
01:40:37 <Reg7805> lol
01:41:11 <brayden> I have no idea but it's somewhere close to 100% of the time
01:43:03 <rust_collector> I hope I get my transistor in the mail one of these days, so I can also be cool, and make a power supply.
01:43:25 <Reg7805> china??
01:43:31 <rust_collector> bulgaria...
01:43:43 <rust_collector> of all places
01:44:26 <K> one transistor power supply?
01:44:31 <K> weak.
01:44:37 <rust_collector> yep
01:45:03 <rust_collector> well, it will have more, but yes
01:45:50 <rust_collector> I want to see what the guy ships. maybe I will order a few more, if it is ok
01:46:28 <Reg7805> fair enough, dont want a fake transistor
01:46:57 <rust_collector> I really doubt there will be anything wrong with it. but... yes

02:13:31 <ChanOP> 8ball: rust_collector?? Not even on a GOOD day.!!
02:18:03 <Reg7805> btw guys, the starship sn 15 is rolling out to pad
02:29:37 <rust_collector> I remember back in the old days, when they had a little wagon sort of thing they used to move the rockets around, but I guess just rolling them is much cheaper
02:29:42 <rust_collector> hi hsn !!
02:29:46 <Ampera> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/635631712113786890/829750122224025620/20210408_113411.jpg
02:29:56 <Ampera> I may have a problem
02:30:23 <rust_collector> eeh, yes, I mean we knew that, but I thought you had other problems
02:30:47 <Ampera> electrohead, got your noodles
02:30:48 <rust_collector> ooh, next to the tofu...
02:31:08 <Ampera> they didn't have 3x spicy, but 1x is already lethal
02:31:20 <electrohead> oh cool
02:31:23 <electrohead> thanks man
02:31:33 <Ampera> want me to throw in some others?
02:31:46 <rust_collector> only 1x lethal for you
02:32:20 <electrohead> you get the 2x?
02:32:26 <Ampera> yeah
02:32:30 <Ampera> and 1x
02:32:38 <Ampera> 5 packs of each
02:32:45 <electrohead> yeah that's good enough, man
02:32:53 <Ampera> eat them or pass them on
02:32:58 <electrohead> you don't need to go all out :p
02:33:02 <electrohead> oh I'll eat them for sure
02:33:04 <electrohead> heh
02:33:28 <Ampera> leave me a chair at your funeral then
02:33:43 <rust_collector> I am still curious about the tofu thing. I have never tried that
02:34:27 <Ampera> you ever have fresh mozzarella
02:34:37 <rust_collector> yea
02:34:42 <Ampera> tofu is sort of a lighter version of that
02:34:48 <Ysjoelfir> I had to put a block of tofu to the trash recently :(
02:34:48 <Ampera> with zero taste
02:35:05 <Ampera> it'll soak up flavor like a mushroom though
02:35:06 <Ysjoelfir> but yes, if it tastes like something then its bad. like mine was.
02:35:10 <rust_collector> well, I think that is the idea, you add whatever flavour you want?
02:35:11 <electrohead> I never had tofu
02:35:11 <Ysjoelfir> it was actually sparkling in the mough
02:35:24 <Ysjoelfir> mouth*
02:35:30 <electrohead> that's what she said
02:35:32 <electrohead> lol
02:35:40 <rust_collector> eew.
02:35:55 <rust_collector> don't talk about her eating old tofu
02:39:55 <Ysjoelfir> I have been watching all day long a lecture from robert feranec... with doubled speed.... now I started a video with normal speed and instantly feel like I would need a dicapalink capatzittor and have a hard time not falling asleep. how can one man speak soooooo slow?
02:40:08 <Ysjoelfir> I love his experience and his way of presenting stuff, but he is just so fucking slow
02:40:52 <rust_collector> there is stuff you can smoke to become more compatible with that
02:42:29 <Ysjoelfir> yes, but I doubt I will understand much if I do that
02:42:36 <hsn> Ola rusty

03:08:22 <MrMobodies> Hello
03:08:27 <rust_collector> HELLO!
03:08:27 <EEVBlog> Hello there, rust_collector!
03:08:34 <hsn> rust_collector: its no good idea maybe they will ask me to stay forever lol
03:08:37 <MrMobodies> I was a bit worried about the battery in the remote base
03:08:40 <hsn> And never come back
03:08:50 <MrMobodies> in the attic and if anything happens
03:09:00 <MrMobodies> so I opened it and fortunately it can easily be removed
03:09:07 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/mRr109t.jpg
03:09:10 <hsn> Hollo there MrMobodies
03:09:11 <MrMobodies> I don't trust it
03:09:25 <MrMobodies> the 18650 battery in there or the circuitary
03:09:32 <rust_collector> what are you talking about?
03:09:36 <MrMobodies> if it catches fire in the attic that could be really bad
03:09:39 <MrMobodies> a remove tilt base
03:09:44 <MrMobodies> remote tile camera base
03:09:49 <MrMobodies> it came with a battery inside
03:09:54 <rust_collector> ah
03:09:55 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/mRr109t.jpg
03:10:12 <hsn> There is white gum there
03:10:13 <MrMobodies> unless I am taking around with me I wouldn't trust it on all the time
03:10:24 <MrMobodies> looks like glue to me
03:10:24 <hsn> Is it mint flavor
03:10:39 <MrMobodies> mmint flavor cell
03:10:55 <MrMobodies> I going to wire up a 5v supply to it in the attic
03:11:00 <hsn> 18650 mint cells
03:11:14 <rust_collector> yum
03:11:15 <MrMobodies> maybe I could feed it to the rats that I catch
03:11:18 <MrMobodies> in the garden
03:11:19 <MrMobodies> joe
03:11:21 <MrMobodies> joke
03:11:37 <hsn> MrMobodies: shouldnt it be 4.2v
03:11:46 <MrMobodies> I heard that they can chew through anything
03:11:47 <rust_collector> maybe you should build a rat powered generator, make them run in a wheel
03:11:48 <MrMobodies> yes
03:12:10 <MrMobodies> I got circule them first in the cage trap
03:12:22 <MrMobodies> 4.2v and 5v output
03:12:25 <hsn> rust_collector: if rat run ... Keep the cat gate closed
03:12:37 <MrMobodies> I would like to cage the rat
03:12:37 <hsn> If he stops .. cat gate opens slowly
03:12:44 <MrMobodies> domesticate it and turn it into a friend
03:12:57 <MrMobodies> so it can fetch me things off the floor
03:13:14 <MrMobodies> get it to clean up and that
03:13:26 <MrMobodies> doubt that would ever happen
03:13:32 <rust_collector> they will do that, and pee on everything
03:13:47 <hsn> Cat gate is more amusing
03:14:04 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/VgNVHEQ.jpg
03:14:05 <hsn> And label the cage:: Powered by fear
03:14:14 <MrMobodies> maybe I could put a cat in the attic for a day
03:14:23 <MrMobodies> I may get instant results
03:14:41 <MrMobodies> they might run away or be caught quickly
03:15:01 <hsn> https://www.atticbahrain.com/
03:15:10 <MrMobodies> but what I'll do is take it to the field and set them free
03:15:55 <MrMobodies> nice greek kitchen with Greek food
03:15:59 <MrMobodies> and nice website
03:16:31 <rust_collector> I guess you could dip your rats in nitric acid, that should work
03:16:34 <MrMobodies> I have a joke
03:16:51 <MrMobodies> I am going to capture these rats with the help of the Chinese Government
03:17:03 <MrMobodies> Hikvision
03:17:03 <hsn> DOM PERIGNON this thing
03:17:04 <hsn> Is
03:17:05 <MrMobodies> get it
03:17:14 <hsn> 1127$
03:17:16 <hsn> The hell
03:17:30 <MrMobodies> $1127 for?
03:17:37 <hsn> Wine
03:17:42 <MrMobodies> oh a wine
03:17:43 <hsn> In that attic restaurant
03:18:01 <hsn> DOM PERIGNON
03:18:01 <hsn> BHD
03:18:01 <hsn> 425
03:18:01 <hsn> Champagne, France
03:18:03 <MrMobodies> they must be doing really well
03:18:11 <MrMobodies> well charge those prices
03:18:17 <rust_collector> MrMobodies try looking at that site in a non-modobies-ified browser
03:18:45 <hsn> Idk but i went to this restaurant once .. with university tutor on his birthday
03:19:14 <hsn> Its expensive for me .. i guess for him its ok
03:19:17 <hsn> XD
03:19:19 <MrMobodies> I wonder how much it cost him?
03:19:28 <MrMobodies> ooh was that the $1227
03:19:43 <MrMobodies> oh sorry that's the wine I am confused myself
03:19:43 <hsn> MrMobodies: he paid for all of us
03:19:49 <MrMobodies> that's nice
03:19:56 <MrMobodies> must be a special moment
03:20:26 <hsn> MrMobodies: i feel bad we bought him cake from our regular places
03:20:37 <hsn> That probably cost like 30$
03:20:58 <hsn> And he paid for the dinner maybe 300$
03:21:00 <MrMobodies> I see you brought him stuff and he turns up with something superior
03:21:22 <MrMobodies> $300 each for everyone?
03:21:27 <MrMobodies> *or sorry
03:21:29 <hsn> Every one
03:21:36 <MrMobodies> that's not too bad
03:21:40 <MrMobodies> or a special occasion
03:21:42 <rust_collector> that looks very much like the kind of place I can not go to
03:22:03 <rust_collector> but, maybe
03:22:21 <MrMobodies> I look at those cakes
03:22:30 <MrMobodies> and it makes me want to stuff myself silly
03:22:39 <MrMobodies> the addiction is just there
03:22:50 <hsn> MrMobodies: the thing .. i buy kebabs and shwarmas from places here that cost 6$ an much more delicious food ..
03:23:00 <MrMobodies> https://assets.website-files.com/5e2fefedd4837e8d884660d4/5e308c25ae851201a29e1cad_DSC00102.jpg
03:23:07 <MrMobodies> aaah
03:23:16 <MrMobodies> well I waiting for some kebab today
03:23:22 <MrMobodies> I have them cut the meat thick
03:23:29 <MrMobodies> so it doesn't curl up
03:23:33 <hsn> My man
03:23:43 <MrMobodies> when they cut them too thin I don't it nice
03:24:03 <MrMobodies> mind you it is a pick and mix
03:24:14 <MrMobodies> there are cheap kebabs that sells a lot for little
03:24:19 <MrMobodies> but I can taste glue in there
03:24:36 <MrMobodies> and the expensive ones that I can't taste much grease or glue but more expensive
03:25:14 <MrMobodies> Hsn: My man? a bit confused
03:25:36 <MrMobodies> is it some sort of expression?
03:25:47 <hsn> MrMobodies: yes
03:26:05 <MrMobodies> dictionary "a patronizing form of address to a man."
03:26:08 <hsn> https://images.app.goo.gl/5hLE8GKyFvbck2fK9
03:26:13 <MrMobodies> I don't see what is patronising
03:26:31 <MrMobodies> then I don't understand expressions I have a language/communication disorder

03:27:42 <MrMobodies> once I understand stuff I become very happy and content for a while
03:28:17 <MrMobodies> except for being deceived.
03:29:21 <MrMobodies> I noticed when I ask people to explain a word and sometimes when they explain the use the very word that they can trying to explain in the explanation
03:29:28 <MrMobodies> it's like a blank card to me
03:29:53 <MrMobodies> anyway I think my kebab is here
03:30:13 <rust_collector> it is running around in your attic
03:31:56 <rust_collector> hsn is that place trying to be greek, or are they trying to be "fine"
03:32:31 <hsn> rust_collector, i think its good greek restuarant .. the tutor is from there and he likes it
03:34:10 <rust_collector> some places makes every dish perfect, and nice and stuff, but... some times, I still prefer shitty places that slap your (still good) food on a plate and done. no fancy anything
03:34:40 <rust_collector> I also tend to slightly hate fancy "homemade" ice cream
03:40:43 <rust_collector> we do have a sloppy greek place in town. it is great.
03:42:39 Join: arch ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
04:01:03 <hsn> rust_collector, food is food .. its not going to go nice inside stomach
04:01:13 <hsn> put it in the damn plate and eat :P
04:02:30 <rust_collector> it just annoys me that some places spend too much energy on making it look pretty, and have an artsy line of sauce around a potato
04:03:34 <brayden> can thank all the TV chefs grading on presentation for that
04:04:51 <rust_collector> I also think that I am not made for fancy foods. I like regular stuff, not fancy things. fancy food just tastes expensive
04:05:43 <hsn> rust_collector, thats the correct food attitude.. to enjoy food not look
04:06:04 <rust_collector> meh, I am going to chew it to gloop anyway
04:08:21 <brayden> man when you can get work to pay for a good meal
04:08:25 <brayden> that's the best taste of all
04:09:34 <rust_collector> yeah, I remember that happening a long time ago. now we just get crap pizza, because they found a pizza place that agreed to deliver, lol
04:20:25 <hsn> rust_collector, u have no food delivering company ? that sucks profit from all restuarants?
04:20:35 <hsn> in the country
04:21:40 <rust_collector> well, work is a bit into the woods. these people agreed to deliver, because we order 40-50 pizzas.
04:22:09 <rust_collector> if you are closer to town, you can have anything delivered
04:25:14 <rust_collector> well, you could just tell a taxi to deliver, I guess

04:34:16 <Ysjoelfir> eh? pizza?
04:34:40 <Ysjoelfir> rust_collector, its not Lørdag. No Pizza today!
04:34:52 <rust_collector> eeh, the box says pizza. i am not sure if it is true.
04:35:05 <rust_collector> but you are right, no pizza today
04:35:30 <rust_collector> only when we have "meetings" at work
04:36:24 <Ysjoelfir> like... 20 drivers waiting to be loaded?
04:36:49 <rust_collector> oh, there is a pizza/kebab/etc. place down by the kiwi... neighbor says they are getting better at their pizza making. i tried it when they just started, and it was pretty horrible.
04:37:58 <Ysjoelfir> well... you guys have more experience with fish than pizza I suppose
04:38:19 <rust_collector> like, whoever bothered to go to a "meeting" if they did not have food, no one would come ever. A couple of years ago, they had to ship us all on the boat to denmark, to make at least some people bother
04:38:39 <Ysjoelfir> lol
04:57:18 <Seng> I need a sanity check. I have two JK-FFs
04:57:28 <Seng> ..setup like the following https://circuitdigest.com/sites/default/files/projectimage_tut/Asynchronous-Counter.png
04:58:15 <Seng> everytime I send a clock signal (switch-button-press) I go to the next state. Except I see 00, 11, 01, 10.
04:59:11 <Seng> Which makes sense. When Q0 goes high, it's a clock pulse to the second FF which obviously sets Q1 high.
04:59:40 <Seng> But there are *so* many diagrams with this config. They can't all be wrong, can they?
05:03:24 <Seng> Connecting Q' from FF1 to FF2's clock gives me the desired behaviour.
05:03:27 <T3sl4> of course they're all wrong. they show JKs
05:03:53 <Seng> Is this where you say "jk" and we all laugh?
05:04:08 <T3sl4> that's a pun not intended, oddly
05:04:35 <T3sl4> but seriously, JKs are... so 70s, i guess? they're very much out of style as far as i know
05:04:48 <Ampera> JFK's are so 60's
05:04:59 * T3sl4 grassy knolls Ampera
05:05:08 * Ampera rock and rolls T3sl4
05:05:17 <T3sl4> not that there's anything strictly wrong with them, just that D's are more general and available in all synthesis tools
05:05:28 * T3sl4 rolling rocks Ampera
05:05:51 <Seng> Can a D-type be used as a toggle?
05:05:57 <T3sl4> strap D = /Q
05:06:17 <T3sl4> or buy a whole chip of em, "ripple counter"
05:07:17 <T3sl4> as for the sequence you see, iunno, i guess JK is falling edge triggered? i forget
05:07:22 <Seng> I have a few of them, but I wanted the experience of making something myself :))
05:07:31 <T3sl4> seems it's inverting so it produces the inverse sequence
05:07:46 <Seng> *should* be rising edge triggered, which seems correct
05:07:59 <Seng> according to my breadboard
05:10:03 <Seng> thanks for the battery advice the other day, btw. I ended op deciding with a fixed power supply after looking at current usage of my final project..

09:34:53 <therealazzurro> oh boy I'm scared of sending this layout to JLCPCB https://imgur.com/a/ntyaQdW
09:35:07 <electrohead> awe
09:35:09 <electrohead> so cute
09:35:33 <therealazzurro> every single time i find something I forgot to change after the pcb has gone to production
09:36:45 <electrohead> therealazzurro: what is it?
09:37:00 <T3sl4> scared of what? you didn't change anything at all
09:37:03 <T3sl4> :P
09:37:09 <therealazzurro> lab power supply :D
09:37:19 <therealazzurro> yes i did change some things
09:37:37 <therealazzurro> whoa i remember you telling me i should just make one big ground plane
09:37:54 <therealazzurro> see, already something i had forgotten lol
09:38:08 <T3sl4> i mean it's only the first thing i notice :P

09:39:38 <therealazzurro> i moved some components here and there, different (0.2R) shunt, added a reset pin to the uart pin header, increased clearance to a mains trace, moved an mlcc closer to where it belongs, inserted a connector for a thermal fuse which i had forgotten the last time
09:39:55 <therealazzurro> kelvin connection to the shunt
09:40:03 <therealazzurro> high voltage warnings
09:40:08 <therealazzurro> small things
09:41:35 <electrohead> oh nice :D
09:41:54 <electrohead> to be remotely controlled?
09:42:05 <therealazzurro> huh
09:43:10 <electrohead> I spot a pinout on the bottom for the TTL serial lines
09:43:58 <electrohead> you planning on making it to be remotely controlled? ie, ttl-usb, an esp8266, etc?

09:45:19 <therealazzurro> ah sorry no that just for programming for people who don't have an isp programmer. but it is all open source so everyone can knock themselves out on what they'll do with that header
09:46:20 <electrohead> ahh, cool
09:46:36 <electrohead> normally when I spot a header like that, my first thought is "hook up an esp8266 to it!"
09:46:38 <electrohead> lol
09:47:43 <therealazzurro> firmware is very early stage. you can set voltage and current, let it auto-calibrate out for the onboard minimal load and a self test during start up which checks whether the measured adc voltages are plausible to what the DAC is being set to during the test
09:48:08 <therealazzurro> and of course it shows the set and read voltage and current and wattage as well as whether it is in cc or cv mode
09:48:16 <therealazzurro> that's all working already
09:48:40 <therealazzurro> haha yes you can hook it up to an esp8266 xD
09:49:09 <therealazzurro> firmware is completely non-blocking, no nasty delays so it would even be reasonably responsive
09:49:18 <electrohead> <-- likes to automate things
09:49:34 <therealazzurro> and i have chosen the atmega1284p for its vast amount of ram and rom so people can go crazy on the firmware
09:49:41 <therealazzurro> haha me too
09:49:44 <electrohead> nice choice :)

10:28:03 <Halcyon> Morning all
10:28:18 * T3sl4 hugs Halcyon
10:28:34 <Halcyon> :)
10:28:34 <electrohead> o/
10:28:36 <Halcyon> Aww
10:28:39 <Halcyon> Hey guys
10:30:16 * Ampera gleefully licks Halcyon
10:30:20 <Ampera> how are you doing Halcyon
10:30:53 <Ampera> the moment I say anything he vanishes
10:30:58 <Halcyon> :D
10:30:58 <Ampera> it's almost like he doesn't like me very much
10:31:02 <Halcyon> I'm going OK
10:31:06 <Halcyon> I do like you
10:31:10 <Ampera> weirdo
10:31:15 <Halcyon> Yeh well
10:31:23 <Ampera> I went to your favorite restaurant today
10:31:33 <Halcyon> Oh?
10:31:36 <Ampera> outback steakhouse
10:31:47 <Halcyon> Outback steakhouse sucks
10:31:50 <Ampera> hahaha
10:31:51 <electrohead> lol
10:31:53 <Halcyon> I mean it's OKKKKKK
10:31:55 <Ampera> they weren't bad
10:32:04 <Halcyon> But not great by any means
10:32:13 <Ampera> a bit expensive, but the food was good for what's available around here
10:32:17 <T3sl4> https://i.imgur.com/lyugKUc.jpg
10:32:29 <Halcyon> https://kingsleyssydney.com.au/
10:32:32 <Halcyon> That's my favourite
10:32:33 <Halcyon> :)
10:32:53 <Ampera> we don't have high end places like that
10:33:02 <Ampera> outback's about as high end as it gets around here
10:33:10 <Halcyon> Obviously it's a very occasional place :P
10:33:30 <Halcyon> I'll buy you a Tomahawk steak when you come here
10:33:35 <Ampera> My main stress whenever I go to a new restaurant is being able to find something I can actually eat
10:33:45 <Ampera> vegetables are everywhere and I cannae eat them
10:33:58 <Halcyon> Well this is where you would like Kingsleys, the mains don't come with anything at all
10:34:03 <Halcyon> You add the sides to it
10:34:27 <Ampera> I also went to my local asian supermarket
10:34:34 <Ampera> I'm gonna show you a picture of the cart I had
10:34:46 <Ampera> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/635631712113786890/829750122224025620/20210408_113411.jpg
10:34:58 <Halcyon> Hahaha yum
10:35:06 <Ampera> I did get electrohead his noodles finally
10:35:15 <Ampera> will send those out to him as soon as I get around to it
10:35:17 <Halcyon> I would be very tempted to just keep trying them one by one until I was stuffed
10:35:18 <T3sl4> i just died from sodium overdose
10:35:22 <T3sl4> looking at that cart
10:35:27 <Halcyon> BRB, going to make a bagel
10:35:51 <Ampera> it's got a lot of my favorites in there
10:35:57 <Ampera> and a few I've never tried
10:36:34 <Halcyon> Back, it's toasting
10:36:43 <Ampera> you are weird
10:36:55 <Halcyon> What?
10:37:00 <Halcyon> I don't like it cold and lifeless
10:37:09 <Ampera> you like me cold and lifeless
10:37:14 <Halcyon> I like the cut side toasted
10:37:24 <Halcyon> That's because you'd be a starfish in bed :P
10:37:28 <Ampera> not sure if you like me cut, but I can give it a try
10:37:34 <Ampera> what does that even mean
10:37:37 <electrohead> lmfao
10:37:41 <electrohead> fucking goofballs
10:37:43 <electrohead> :p
10:37:51 <Halcyon> https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Starfish
10:38:06 <Halcyon> Also, I thought you already were circumsized Ampera, being 'Merican and all
10:38:12 <Ampera> wha
10:38:19 <Ampera> what's so american about circumcision
10:38:30 <Halcyon> You guys do it all the time, like it's some kind of game
10:39:17 <Ampera> it's seen more as a jewish thing here
10:39:21 <Ampera> they're mainly the ones who do it
10:39:46 <Ampera> some christians do, but it's not that common among them afaik
10:39:52 <Ampera> I wouldn't know, I'm not a cultmonger
10:40:10 <Halcyon> Mmmmm poppy seeds
10:40:23 <T3sl4> Ampera: https://i.imgur.com/sY4hAtB.jpg
10:40:38 <Ampera> I don't recall ever being loved
10:40:45 <Halcyon> https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/hestat/circumcision_2013/circumcision_2013.htm
10:40:48 <Ampera> mostly it's just text on the screen telling me I'm stupid
10:40:49 <T3sl4> that's the point
10:41:30 <Ampera> honestly it's so small if it were circumcized I'd probably lose half of it
10:41:56 <Halcyon> You're German, it should be largeish
10:42:09 <Ampera> the french half of me fucked it up
10:42:33 <Halcyon> The French, always fucking things up
10:43:02 <Halcyon> Ohh my legally downloaded movie is almost finished :)
10:43:29 <Ampera> the one and only sane thing about australia
10:43:38 <Halcyon> Heh
10:45:51 <Halcyon> Is there anyone here that can read Russian?
10:46:01 <Ampera> me
10:46:06 <Halcyon> I'm being serious
10:46:12 <Ampera> I can read it, just can't understand it
10:46:17 <Ampera> but I know the alphabet
10:46:17 <Halcyon> Oh FFS
10:46:22 <Halcyon> That doesn't help me
10:46:26 <Ampera> what do you need
10:47:01 <Halcyon> I need to ebay a thing and everything is Russian. I have no idea what is the name and which part of the address is which
10:47:07 <Halcyon> I need it for the customs form
10:47:38 <Ampera> link me
10:47:50 <Ampera> or pm me

10:47:52 <Halcyon> I'll see if I can copy/paste in a PM

13:45:16 <Ampera> er
13:45:17 <gnif> looks like the private network wont be back for a few days
13:45:20 <Ampera> perhaps that means you should worry

13:45:57 <Halcyon> Oh, where did you go?
13:46:01 <Ampera> I'm not going to work tomorrow
13:46:14 <gnif> My wife kindly drove us down to Wollongong while I sat on my laptop and brought the server back up :)
13:46:20 <Halcyon> Oh nice
13:46:35 <Ampera> I think you might be the first australian I've met who wasn't gay
13:46:41 <Halcyon> I forget if you had one or two kids but did she/they go with you?
13:46:52 <Halcyon> How many others do you know Ampera?
13:47:08 <Ampera> you, DogWomble, uh
13:47:08 <gnif> I have one, a daughter of 1
13:47:11 <gnif> *15
13:47:13 <Ampera> that's about it
13:48:02 <Halcyon> Is she into the geek stuff like you?
13:48:27 <Ampera> I thought you said gnif lives right up the street from you, how would you not know that
13:49:46 <Halcyon> Because we don't hang out
13:50:03 <Ampera> ain't you never heard of no southern hospitality?
13:50:06 <gnif> a bit, she is a nerd, but not at the level I am at
13:50:06 <Ampera> buh
13:50:16 <gnif> sorry, just stuck my head in, got to go again

13:52:54 <Halcyon> I wish I could just come on over
13:52:58 <Halcyon> That would be the coolest
13:53:10 <electrohead> you could visit both of us :P
13:53:19 <Halcyon> Yep, of vice versa
13:53:30 <Halcyon> Could have a slumber party like the giant girl that Ampera is
13:53:31 <Halcyon> :P
13:53:37 <electrohead> lol
13:53:57 <Ampera> the moment you said that I took one of my hormone pills
13:54:16 * Ampera beats the shit out of Halcyon with a pillowcase filled with lead shot
13:54:24 <Halcyon> :P
13:54:27 <Halcyon> Love you
13:54:32 <Ampera> I thought you were gay
13:54:53 <Halcyon> You can still love someone
13:55:02 <Halcyon> Like electrohead loves me but he's a filthy straighty :P
13:55:28 <electrohead> hahaha
13:55:36 <Ampera> Nobody's loved me for a long time
13:55:37 <Ampera> possibly ever
13:55:39 <Ampera> so I wouldn't know
13:56:28 <Halcyon> Should I do ramen, or a glass of wine...
13:56:32 * electrohead loves Ampera's face
13:56:34 <Halcyon> Decisions
13:56:37 <electrohead> Halcyon: both?
13:56:41 <Halcyon> Hmm
13:56:47 <Ampera> ramen
13:56:49 <Ampera> alcohol is a sin
13:56:52 <Ampera> you fucking demon
13:56:58 <Halcyon> I don't fucking care :P
13:57:10 <Ampera> of course you don't, you godless cretin
13:57:17 <Halcyon> What's a god?
13:57:22 <Ampera> me
13:57:32 <Ampera> I created the universe, and everything in it
13:57:34 <Ampera> last thursday
13:57:37 <steve30> Halcyon, I got a box of Sony 200GB data cartridges from australia yesterday
13:57:49 <Ampera> ooo
13:59:06 <Halcyon> Oooh :)
13:59:21 <Halcyon> Was there anything else in the box? :P
13:59:26 <Ampera> A DICK
13:59:33 <Ampera> hopefully
13:59:33 <Halcyon> Spotted dick?
13:59:44 * Ampera smears gentleman's relish all over Halcyon
13:59:45 <Ampera> 's toast
14:00:07 <steve30> I haven't opened it yet. But it seems a bit small to contain hunks.
14:00:26 <steve30> I'm going to try a live unboxing on youtube i think
14:00:38 <Ampera> Happy friday
14:00:44 * Ampera sneezes
14:00:49 * Ampera sneezes again, for good measure
14:01:09 <Ampera> I think I'm allergic to the day line
14:01:17 <Halcyon> There will be a thing inside you need to blur out remember Steve
14:01:49 <Ampera> Halcyon, do you prefer jelly or jam
14:01:54 <Halcyon> Jam
14:01:58 <Ampera> good
14:02:05 <Halcyon> Jelly is a kids desert
14:02:17 <Ampera> it's far harder to jelly something in someone's ass
14:02:26 <Halcyon> This is true
14:02:28 <steve30> people seem to like unboxing videos :)
14:02:33 <Ampera> I forgot
14:02:41 <Ampera> over there, jelly == gelatin
14:02:46 <Ampera> whereas it's not the case here
14:02:51 <Halcyon> steve30, yep, as long as I'm not identified nor where I work :)
14:02:55 <Ampera> jelly and jam are mostly synonymous
14:03:05 <Ampera> there's a difference, I think one is cooled without the skins
14:03:12 <Ampera> mmm, skins
14:03:20 <Ampera> *cooked
14:03:23 <Halcyon> Jelly and Jam are completely different things
14:03:27 <Ampera> nope
14:03:29 <Halcyon> Yep
14:03:35 <Ampera> not in the US
14:03:48 <Ampera> jelly != gelatin
14:03:57 <Halcyon> Since when do we listen to the opinion of the US? You guys do most things backwards
14:03:58 <Ampera> it's a fruit spread just like jam
14:04:22 <Ampera> I mean, do you want any of our vaccines?
14:04:25 <Halcyon> Jelly here is what you would call Jell-o
14:04:34 <Ampera> no I would not
14:04:37 <Ampera> because Jell-o is a brand
14:04:40 <Halcyon> I've already got your vaccine, so thanks for that, but we also make them here :P
14:04:55 <Ampera> I call it gelatin
14:05:02 <Halcyon> To us, this is jellyhttps://image.shutterstock.com/image-illustration/jelly-on-plate-isolated-white-260nw-1324009424.jpg
14:05:07 <Halcyon> https://image.shutterstock.com/image-illustration/jelly-on-plate-isolated-white-260nw-1324009424.jpg
14:05:11 <Ampera> that's gelatin
14:05:14 <Halcyon> Gelatin is just a part of jelly
14:05:19 <Halcyon> As in the ingredient
14:05:22 <Ampera> I'm aware
14:05:28 <Ampera> but here it also refers to the desert
14:05:41 <Halcyon> See, this is why you're strange
14:05:43 <Ampera> since, well, it's mostly gelatin
14:05:51 <Ampera> it's just flavored gelatin
14:05:59 <Ampera> so stop horsing around before I render you into gelatin
14:06:26 <Halcyon> Where as jams don't (always) contain gelatin
14:06:36 <Ampera> well jam isn't a desert
14:06:36 <Halcyon> They oten use pectin
14:06:38 <Ampera> whereas gelatin is

14:06:44 <Ampera> jam is a breakfast food
14:06:45 <Ampera> as is jelly
14:06:48 <Ampera> or preserves
14:06:58 <Ampera> mmm, preserves
14:07:00 <Halcyon> Mostly breakfast yes, but you can have jams in cakes too
14:07:12 <Halcyon> Or used as a glaze for meats
14:07:16 <Ampera> ew
14:07:32 <Ampera> remind me not to eat the food when I come there
14:07:33 <Halcyon> What do you mean ew?
14:07:39 <Ampera> if you have such terrible ideas like that
14:07:46 <Halcyon> Ham with a plum or apricot glaze is delicious
14:07:54 <Halcyon> https://www.taste.com.au/recipes/baked-ham-plum-glaze/38f5919b-9a30-4ae8-9595-791d18cf60ae
14:08:16 <Ampera> recipes are for the woefully uncreative
14:09:57 * Halcyon slaps Ampera with a hock of ham
14:10:21 * Ampera sucks on Halcyon's cock of man
14:10:35 <Ampera> ew
14:10:36 <Ampera> tastes like fish

14:10:45 <Halcyon> Lies
14:10:50 <Halcyon> Sladerous lies!
14:10:54 <Ampera> my mouth has a yeast infection now
14:11:36 <Halcyon> Hahah
14:11:43 <Halcyon> You're a bitch
14:11:56 <Ampera> the politically correct term is slut
14:11:57 <Ampera> but ok
14:12:17 <Halcyon> In order to be a slut, you actually have to engage in sexual acts
14:12:23 <Ampera> damn
14:12:45 <Halcyon> Also, I have a crap ton of DD3 RAM, does anyone need?
14:12:53 <Ampera> is it ECC RDIMM?
14:13:22 <Halcyon> It's a mixed bag of stuff
14:13:25 <Halcyon> I haven't gone through it
14:13:45 <Ampera> if you have a lot of high-ish capacity RDIMMs, I'm potentially going to be buying a quad socket server that could use a bunch of it
14:14:02 <AlfBaz> How about a crap ton of lga1150 mother boards :(
14:14:03 <Halcyon> One of the part numbers I randomly chose is HYS72T256920HFA-3S-B
14:14:38 <Ampera> looks like DDR2
14:14:53 <Ampera> 4x2GB
14:14:54 <Halcyon> Yeh there will be DDR2 in there as well
14:15:07 <Ampera> nah, it'd be cheaper just to buy RAM off ebay
14:15:14 <Ampera> /if/ I end up buying the server
14:15:28 <Ampera> waiting for word from the seller before I spring on it
14:24:08 <Halcyon> I get my solar + batteries installed next Monday
14:24:09 <Halcyon> Weee
14:24:28 <steve30> ooh
14:24:36 <steve30> What did you get?
14:25:39 <Halcyon> I'm getting an additional 5kw solar system to add to my existing 4.8kw array
14:25:49 <Halcyon> Plus a 12.5 (?) kw battery system
14:26:04 <steve30> You make my 2.7kW system sound small
14:27:17 <electrohead> I'm off to bed, goodnight o/
14:27:27 * steve30 tucks electrohead in
14:27:41 <Halcyon> Night mate
14:27:45 <electrohead> g'night
14:30:07 <Halcyon> So Steve, when do we get to see this unboxing?
14:30:42 Join: ichtier ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
14:31:23 <steve30> Maybe when there's some daylight so the camera can see :)
14:31:34 <Halcyon> Turn on some lights? :P
14:34:32 <steve30> i really should buy/make some video lights
14:38:56 * steve30 wants another coffee

14:53:19 <AlfBaz> Makes you laugh and be hungry, thanks for that
14:53:28 <Halcyon> He has an interesting style
14:53:35 <Halcyon> But I do like the recipe idea
14:54:57 <Halcyon> Mayo and white truffle oil is an interesting one. Ill have to give it a go

17:01:46 <MrMobodies> Microsoft has decided to add more animations to parts of their website
17:02:19 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/Js0g3hN.jpg
17:02:33 <Halcyon> Heh
17:02:42 <MrMobodies> I made 1000 lines
17:02:49 <MrMobodies> when it turned out to be this single element: ##._3sbTTGfWsUjDKK7cBgXzGL
17:02:55 <MrMobodies> One element cause all that
17:03:11 <MrMobodies> after page loads of box select the lines flash and animate
17:03:15 <MrMobodies> and that annoys me
17:03:18 <MrMobodies> it is repetitive
17:03:45 <Halcyon> I like it Steve, you did well
17:03:51 <MrMobodies> I am going to keep the other elements, the 1000 graidents and shimline stuff

17:04:39 <MrMobodies> so pleased it's gone
17:04:45 <Halcyon> Yeh perfectly fine

17:05:40 <brayden> oh dear
17:05:40 <steve30> Its an HD camera but I'm not sure whether I'd be able to encode it in real time in HD. Need to test it at some point.
17:05:41 <MrMobodies> oh sorry I think I misread something
17:05:42 <Halcyon> I sent Steve Aussie chocolate biscuits in the post
17:05:51 <MrMobodies> lovelly
17:05:54 <brayden> first reporte casualty from the webnx fire on WHT now
17:05:58 <Halcyon> Should be able to via firewire steve
17:05:59 <brayden> guy lost his disks and his backups were broken for a month
17:06:12 <brayden> rip
17:06:28 <MrMobodies> no offsite backups?
17:06:29 <Halcyon> This is why everyone should test their backsup :P
17:06:30 <MrMobodies> that's terrible
17:06:32 <Halcyon> backups
17:06:32 <brayden> just borked
17:06:47 <MrMobodies> resiliance is a must at times like these
17:07:02 <brayden> yeah and offsite is pretty cheap unless you're shovelling insane amounts of data
17:07:40 <MrMobodies> I spoke to someone who runs a telecoms business last year down the pub
17:07:54 <MrMobodies> and they get this sitation in a firm that gets taken over by different managers
17:08:09 <MrMobodies> one says "scrap the whole system it's got to be cloud based"
17:08:14 <brayden> my last backblaze bill was $11 USD and I have about 2TB of backup blobs in there
17:08:30 <MrMobodies> a year later different manager comes in and says "no all got to come down on and install and onsite solution"
17:08:58 <MrMobodies> but most don't want both
17:09:39 <MrMobodies> what could go wrong with and onsite and cloud based (as a backup) phone system
17:10:15 <MrMobodies> I suppose that is devastating to loose your things
17:10:32 <MrMobodies> borked?
17:10:58 <MrMobodies> oh broken
17:11:23 <MrMobodies> so what he thought was backup turned out to be nothing
17:11:27 <steve30> 2 people were watching the video for its duration. I'm wondering who the other person was
17:12:24 <Halcyon> Maybe a stalker of yours? There was a nice crotch shot for a short moment there :P
17:13:15 <brayden> MrMobodies, my last place was full cloud shit. my issue is when the cloud religion decides to push basic shit to the cloud that's better handled on prem
17:13:29 <brayden> big ass file servers being one. like no issue with having a replica in the cloud but 60 ms to access a file server over a 100 mbps express route.. geez
17:13:36 <Halcyon> There needs to be a healthy mixture
17:13:42 <brayden> vs 10 gbps and ~1ms latency if using the datacentre we already have space leased in
17:13:46 <Halcyon> For the most part, having an on-prem mail server is a waste these days
17:14:08 <Halcyon> At least for small to medium size businesses
17:14:32 <brayden> yeah o365 is a no brainer
17:14:39 <steve30> I was waiting for Halcyon to comment on my use of the word 'dollaridoos'
17:14:49 <Halcyon> Haha I noticed that too :P
17:16:12 <steve30> Sound quality is good except for a bit of background hum
17:16:27 <Halcyon> Not noticible.
17:16:36 <steve30> i notice it
17:16:42 <Halcyon> Fussy :P
17:16:51 <steve30> I used my new Rode Lavalier Go
17:17:01 <Halcyon> Yeh it sounded good
17:17:05 <steve30> Also it seems a tad out of sync with the video
17:17:17 <Halcyon> That could be ffmpeg
17:17:44 <Halcyon> If you use firewire next time, not only will your get HD, but you'll get the timecode signal and everything will be synced up nicely
17:17:46 <therealazzurro> morning
17:17:51 <Halcyon> Morning therealazzurro
17:18:21 <steve30> ffmpeg sends the video into a V4L2 loopback device, and sends the audio into an ALSA loopback device, both of which are then picked up by OBS
17:18:41 <MrMobodies> aaah I remembered Dave in hos solar panel video
17:18:47 <MrMobodies> they did this symbol in the sky
17:18:51 <steve30> I could just have ffmpeg send the stream to youtube itself which would probably work better but I already had the above set up
17:18:57 <MrMobodies> and he called it a name
17:19:16 <MrMobodies> propaganda
17:19:36 <MrMobodies> Brayden: cloud religion I mean
17:19:40 <steve30> Halcyon, I can also do analogue HD capture, the capture card has component input and supports up to 1080i
17:20:10 <MrMobodies> one day I the basic controls will be taken away from me, that's my worry
17:20:30 <brayden> already is getting that way
17:20:40 <brayden> big time with something like microsoft exchange

17:22:08 <therealazzurro> cloud can f* off, at least in the means of hosted services which I can't take and move them to another provider as-is
17:22:21 <gnif> yeah, screw the cloud!
17:22:25 <gnif> o/ all
17:22:29 <Halcyon> Ahh yeh component does
17:22:30 <therealazzurro> hey gnif
17:22:46 <Halcyon> Weather turned a bit shit gnif ?
17:23:09 <brayden> haha you will be a slave to microsoft and you will like it therealazzurro!
17:23:12 <gnif> not bad really... just at my brother in laws and there is not much going on here
17:23:26 <therealazzurro> i'd rather move to some dumb imap server solution than move my exchange to the cloud
17:23:28 <brayden> gnif, talking about webnx earlier, someone on WHT reported their RAID is unrecoverable and his backups have been dead for a month
17:23:38 <gnif> ouch!
17:23:56 <therealazzurro> how can backups be dead for a month
17:24:00 <brayden> shrug
17:24:02 <gnif> yeah, I take backups pretty seriously, there is no excuse these days to have at the minimum incrementals
17:24:28 Quit: AlfBaz ([email protected]) Connection closed
17:25:04 <gnif> many people omit backups though when they run into issues with platforms such as cPanel which practically take the server down while it dumps the database.
17:25:14 <Halcyon> I need to update my backup solution
17:25:20 <Halcyon> LTO2 tapes are getting a bit small :P
17:25:23 <brayden> haha
17:25:37 <therealazzurro> daily backups here, of everything. only to disk, though.
17:25:46 <brayden> my home VMs are backed up on LTO 4 tapes
17:25:52 <brayden> staged on a HDD and then copied to the tapes
17:26:00 <gnif> backs to disk are fine, provided they are in another location, and you have more then one copy
17:26:21 <therealazzurro> yes, they are spread to 2 other locations every day
17:26:26 <brayden> yeah the remote stuff is kept on disk then offloaded to backblaze B2
17:26:34 <therealazzurro> and the main backup repo is offline during off-backup hours
17:26:41 <brayden> nice
17:26:45 <therealazzurro> that's my airgap
17:26:54 <brayden> dell was going on about that at my last place
17:27:03 <brayden> some thing where you can set a backup window and when it's not in there the appliance shuts its NIC down
17:27:06 <gnif> As I do management for multiple clients tape is not much of an option as I get a few requests a month to restore a lost file from a prior month, etc
17:27:26 <brayden> yeah tape is a nightmare for that
17:27:26 <gnif> something they deleted they didn't notice for ages
17:27:35 <brayden> + my tape backups weren't working so well recently as I needed to replace the cleaning tape
17:28:02 <steve30> i just backup onto other HDDs
17:28:05 <brayden> joys of second hand equipment.
17:28:08 <therealazzurro> usually you want to keep about 30 days worth of backups on disk and then move that to tape
17:28:26 <gnif> For most things I use BareOS combined with some custom scripts/apps to allow for live backups of databases by means of XtraBackup (or the mariadb version)
17:28:42 <brayden> yeah I've got 21 days on disk for home, 14 days for remote
17:28:45 <brayden> for tapes it's whatever it can handle
17:29:08 <gnif> to save power I have the SAS arrays spin up only when needed
17:29:12 <therealazzurro> and then keep x amount of monthly/quarterly/yearly backups on tape which meet your requirements
17:29:26 <therealazzurro> nice
17:29:27 <brayden> yeah I've got a couple of DS4246s and did consider something like that
17:29:36 <brayden> but one time I had a drive fail to come up after a cold start (power outage)
17:29:44 <brayden> wasn't dead, just needed to be reseated
17:29:49 <brayden> so I guess I'm a bit paranoid about that lol
17:29:51 <therealazzurro> happens
17:29:57 <therealazzurro> RAID 6 is my friend :D
17:30:01 <gnif> well it's not a cold start
17:30:08 <gnif> SAS supports drive spindown
17:30:11 <brayden> ohh
17:30:28 <brayden> I thought you meant like.. powering off via a networked PDU or something
17:30:34 <gnif> you can set an inactivity timeout so they automatically spin down after X minutes of zero activity
17:30:46 <brayden> therealazzurro, how many drives in your RAID 6?
17:30:53 <therealazzurro> 8
17:31:02 <brayden> didn't consider a RAID60?
17:31:06 <gnif> I don't trust Raid 5/6
17:31:19 <brayden> yeah the big boy array is using RAID10 here
17:31:21 <gnif> I usually run RAID10
17:31:34 <therealazzurro> NL-SAS 3TB, gives me about 1GByte/s sequential throughput
17:31:34 * steve30 curls up on Halcyon's lap
17:31:45 <therealazzurro> RAID60 would have cost too much
17:31:50 * gnif throws a cucumber at steve30
17:31:56 <therealazzurro> I don't trust any mirroring without parity information
17:31:58 <brayden> lol just using linux md here
17:32:04 <MrMobodies> tht looks interesting
17:32:05 <MrMobodies> https://docs.bareos.org/_images/bareos-webui-jobs.png
17:32:16 <MrMobodies> something for me to look at later thank you for mentioning
17:32:18 <therealazzurro> i use LSI MegaRAID Controllers
17:32:20 <brayden> the resync times on raid10 are soooooo fast though
17:32:24 * Halcyon pets steve30
17:32:30 <brayden> I mean I'm using all second hand shit and had about 3 drives fail now
17:32:35 <Halcyon> I just use ZFS
17:32:38 <therealazzurro> yeah if it syncs to the correct drive
17:32:48 <gnif> MrMobodies, no worries... it can be a bit of a PITA to wrap your head around how it's setup, but once you do, it's bliss
17:33:06 <brayden> takes about 3 hours resync after inserting the replacement drive and adding it
17:33:08 <brayden> 2TB drives
17:33:16 <gnif> there is also a windows version of the file daemon which is good if you need to manage a windows network too
17:33:31 <therealazzurro> ZFS didn't work as well like hardware RAID for me. hardware RAID was faster and an OS agnostic absolute no-brainer
17:33:34 <brayden> idk therealazzurro yo'ud be horrified, I mutilate all the LSI RAIDs by reflashing them to HBAs lol
17:33:38 <MrMobodies> Last year I got an Areca Raid controller for £25 or so pound on ebay. It was an Areca 1881 I think, nothing wrong with it.
17:33:45 <brayden> the LSI RAID is pretty shit to config
17:33:46 <MrMobodies> they were selling for so much more
17:33:58 <Halcyon> I'm not fussed about the OS Agnostic part as I use FreeBSD and Linux here anyway
17:33:58 <brayden> especially "Web BIOS"
17:34:00 <MrMobodies> one thing i like is the network port, I can mount drives remotely
17:34:16 <therealazzurro> storcli is my friend, f* the GUI :P
17:34:21 <MrMobodies> and it remembers the settings for ones plugged in before
17:34:29 <brayden> https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37438_01/html/E36228/figures/LSI_2-virtual-drives.png
17:34:33 <gnif> thinking of which, if anyone in the NSW/Sydney area has an old JBOD SAS array for cheap/sale, I would be VERY interested
17:34:40 <brayden> mouse control is basically impossible in that UI lol
17:34:48 <brayden> :(
17:34:52 <therealazzurro> yeah like i said, only using cli
17:35:10 <MrMobodies> Anybody remember the Megaraid Enterprise 1600 with all the batteries on it?
17:35:15 <brayden> I mean I could give you some storsimple piece of shit that you can put a dell compellent/netapp or whatever controller into
17:35:17 <brayden> butttt
17:35:22 <brayden> you'd have to make the trip to perth lol
17:35:34 <therealazzurro> lol
17:35:50 <gnif> ideally I want just the enclosure with a SAS interface
17:36:12 <brayden> yeah it'd need a controller swap to be a dumb SAS box
17:36:32 <MrMobodies> a sas connector in the back
17:36:34 <brayden> I put in a netapp IOM6 to test it and that theoretically works but you gotta buy some weird ass cable for taht
17:36:43 <Halcyon> gnif, I wish you told me about 3 months ago
17:36:49 <Halcyon> We threw a bunch out at work
17:36:53 <gnif> ARGH!
17:36:54 <brayden> :O
17:37:11 <gnif> Been looking for one for quite a while now, just for a home setup
17:37:17 <Halcyon> We have a couple of "old" Dell Fibrechannel doobies
17:37:28 <Halcyon> *had
17:37:31 <Halcyon> They got tossed
17:37:32 <brayden> I was offering my special e-waste services to work for a purestorage SSD array
17:37:35 <brayden> they didn't come through in the end :(
17:37:38 <MrMobodies> I got a home setup
17:37:42 <brayden> daaang
17:37:42 <MrMobodies> it is in a bit of a mess though
17:37:46 <brayden> Halcyon, those go for good money at auction
17:37:46 <Halcyon> I saved a couple of Dell R710 servers
17:37:47 <MrMobodies> a terrible mess
17:37:47 <brayden> what a waste
17:37:49 * gnif cries
17:37:57 <Halcyon> brayden, yeh I know, but I just don't have the time
17:38:00 <gnif> I have a R710 I am intending to deploy at some point
17:38:08 <Halcyon> And my house is full enough of technology
17:38:08 <brayden> I retired all the R710s tbh
17:38:16 <Halcyon> I have a decidated store room just full of it
17:38:16 <brayden> newer ESXis don't support westmere
17:38:25 <brayden> yeah my granny flat is a datacentre lol
17:38:27 <brayden> 42U rack
17:38:31 <Halcyon> This is why I don't use ESXi :P
17:38:43 * gnif is always on the lookout for free/scrap enterprise stuff to play with
17:38:45 <brayden> but esxi so good
17:38:47 <Halcyon> I need to find a bigger rack, my half height one is full
17:38:55 <gnif> remote admin's dont get to play with the hardware
17:38:56 <Halcyon> gnif, I'll keep that in mine for next time
17:39:02 <Halcyon> *mind
17:39:10 * gnif hugs Halcyon
17:39:19 <Halcyon> I'll email you a photo in a sec gnif
17:40:00 <MrMobodies> I had problems with Esxi one in particular, a lock is put somewhere and all I can do is move the directory and the files out
17:40:29 <MrMobodies> and it appears hidden until accessing with Ubuntu and the driver
17:40:34 <MrMobodies> but that's read only
17:40:49 <brayden> wat
17:42:04 <Halcyon> I just sent you pics of my server rack and my (messy) store room
17:42:16 <Halcyon> I wasn't kidding when I said if you need any vintage parts :P
17:42:27 <MrMobodies> here's my workshop
17:42:28 <MrMobodies> https://imgur.com/a/8Y1lZG7
17:42:39 <Erhard> Yo
17:42:40 <MrMobodies> most of the things are beyone obslete
17:42:52 <MrMobodies> but I am happy with them
17:43:04 <MrMobodies> the server one the top is my disc imaging
17:43:04 <Halcyon> I love workshops like that
17:43:14 <Halcyon> Just going through drawers and boxes would be so much fun
17:43:16 <MrMobodies> and the server with the fans I am running ESXI 5.5
17:43:17 <Halcyon> Just finding cool stuff
17:44:26 <MrMobodies> Well they given to me at someone down the local pub
17:44:29 <MrMobodies> when it was last opej
17:44:31 <gnif> sorry, distracted. Got some poor sap that was affected by the GS outage asking for help
17:44:38 <Erhard> MrMobodies: Lol
17:44:54 <MrMobodies> I put in some more ram and faster cpu's
17:45:04 <MrMobodies> very nice in this village
17:45:14 <MrMobodies> people say hello to you
17:45:47 <Halcyon> This is why I like living where I like MrMobodies
17:45:47 <MrMobodies> Try that in Romford Essex when I last there and they come over, say "what you looking at" and throw things at you.
17:45:52 <Halcyon> In Sydney, no one gives a crap
17:46:01 <MrMobodies> nice village in Coates, Cambridgeshire
17:46:34 <Erhard> In Amsterdam nobody gives a crap either.
17:47:02 <Erhard> What OSes you running?
17:47:07 <MrMobodies> me?
17:47:10 <Erhard> Yeah
17:47:37 <Erhard> I dabble with linux, but still have a soft spot in my heart for BSDs
17:47:37 <MrMobodies> well I still have the Wwindows 7, on the Esxi I have some Linux stuff
17:47:49 <MrMobodies> Oracle enterprise with Gnome 2
17:47:56 <MrMobodies> actually still maintained
17:48:01 <gnif> Halcyon: DAMN! now I am very jealous, if only for your neat storage setup
17:48:15 <MrMobodies> Freebsd and windowmaker that Ampera helped ne with
17:48:22 <Erhard> Cool
17:48:43 <Erhard> NetBSD is my record for tyhe longest uptime. 10 YEARS and 15 days
17:48:55 <Erhard> A messed up UPS killed it.
17:49:02 <MrMobodies> and the other one, Freebsd with kde 5
17:49:15 <brayden> MrMobodies, how old are tehse pics of your workshop?
17:49:19 <Halcyon> gnif, the room is a mess at the moment. Shit all over the floor, but I am slowly getting it all organised
17:49:24 <MrMobodies> just now
17:49:28 <brayden> lol
17:49:38 <brayden> if you'd have told me these pics were from 5 years ago I would've believed you
17:49:39 <brayden> geez
17:49:41 <MrMobodies> I got some really old ones ten years ago in my house
17:50:01 <MrMobodies> how does it look 5 years old?
17:50:11 <brayden> those monitors
17:50:13 <gnif> Halcyon, you should use a toilet
17:50:18 <gnif> wonderful invention
17:50:23 <MrMobodies> oh those the HP 2065
17:50:25 <brayden> that HP case.. looks like maybe gen 8 at the newest?
17:50:25 <MrMobodies> I love them
17:50:34 <MrMobodies> one of them cost £450 in 2006
17:50:42 <MrMobodies> 2013 I picked the lot up for £30 each
17:50:44 <MrMobodies> and they still work
17:50:47 <therealazzurro> esxi is the best <3 :D running 6.7 here on a R720 dual ivy-bridge 10 core
17:50:56 <brayden> nice
17:50:58 <MrMobodies> lovelly
17:51:06 <MrMobodies> I got a graphics card to work in mine
17:51:06 <Halcyon> Ill remember that gnif for next time :P
17:51:08 <brayden> do you have vcentre therealazzurro?
17:51:09 <MrMobodies> passthrough
17:51:20 <MrMobodies> it is a Quadro FX 3800
17:51:28 <gnif> esxi... blah
17:51:31 <MrMobodies> but some parameters needed to be set
17:51:34 <brayden> yeah, I passthrough the LSI HBA to a guest for the storage shit
17:51:34 <gnif> qemu or death
17:51:37 <brayden> lol
17:51:39 <therealazzurro> yes vCenter makes things even better
17:51:41 <MrMobodies> it is the free edition
17:51:48 <brayden> the esxi host UI is so bad
17:51:48 <MrMobodies> I wanted to use Proxmox
17:51:51 <brayden> but vcentre.. oh my god
17:51:55 <brayden> in dark mode tooooo
17:52:02 <MrMobodies> but I could not get the PCI Passthrough to work
17:52:03 <brayden> therealazzurro, take it to 7.0, they improved the VM dashboard thingy so much
17:52:15 <MrMobodies> I use ESX 5.5
17:52:18 <brayden> :O
17:52:22 <MrMobodies> the new one is horrid
17:52:22 <brayden> so you got ye olde fat client?
17:52:28 <brayden> 6.0 supports teh fat client still too
17:52:29 <MrMobodies> yes
17:52:32 * gnif uses qemu, but he is biased as he is a qemu dev :)
17:52:38 <therealazzurro> second X9DR3-F based esxi with the same ivy bridge here as well :)
17:52:48 <therealazzurro> yes i'm planning to move to 7.0 at some point
17:52:50 <brayden> dude MrMobodies I hated the host UI.. and it still sucks
17:52:55 <brayden> but vcentre oh my god
17:52:58 <brayden> it's sooo good
17:53:01 * Erhard did a bunch of xen
17:53:08 <MrMobodies> I was onto Promox Qqemu based but
17:53:15 <MrMobodies> I could nto get the pci passthrough towkr
17:53:18 <MrMobodies> somethign i wanted
17:53:26 <gnif> PCI passthrough is awesome
17:53:29 <brayden> yeah I was doing some GPU passthrough stuff on my old manjaro machine and man.. vfio lol
17:53:38 <brayden> took a whole afternoon to get nouveau to stop trying to load
17:53:44 <brayden> "HOW DO BLACKLIST WORK"
17:53:45 <MrMobodies> So that's why I gave up on proxmox, I am not sure if it is the chipset
17:53:45 <brayden> eventually got it
17:53:46 <therealazzurro> if you need pci passthrough you are either doing it wrong or you do have a very special use case
17:53:50 <brayden> and then teh VM wasn't terribly stable haha
17:53:53 <brayden> gave up and used moonlight instead
17:54:02 <MrMobodies> well I mounted the graphics card and Intel nics
17:54:07 <MrMobodies> it actually works
17:54:09 <brayden> therealazzurro, I had a multi GPU system, AMD for the host and nvidia for the guest. the things you do on linux
17:54:14 <brayden> was using looking glass to do video to the host
17:54:26 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/sE0iuSo.jpg
17:54:31 <MrMobodies> the long silver thing
17:54:35 <gnif> My desktop at home is a 24 core threadripper... I run two VMs each with their own vfio gpu each... one runs a Quadro K1200 and drives four monitors. The other is a 1080Ti, in windows. Using Looking Glass from VM to VM so I can game in windows from linux
17:54:36 * Erhard is Amsterdam has to head to work. Cya
17:54:38 <brayden> what gen is that MrMobodies?
17:54:43 <brayden> dang
17:54:46 <therealazzurro> 8 i guess
17:54:48 <brayden> i'm just a ryzen 5800x pleb
17:55:41 <therealazzurro> i guess you can do that MrMobodies :D but why?
17:56:00 <therealazzurro> i like purpose built systems
17:56:21 <therealazzurro> workstation for workstation stuff, server for server stuff
17:56:22 <gnif> I was doing this on a Ryzen 1700X initially, the 5800x is more then enough
17:56:50 <brayden> I wish I could get at least a 5900x but man
17:56:53 <therealazzurro> spares me of needing to have obscure setups
17:58:11 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/tBgsHN9.jpg
17:58:19 <MrMobodies> I like to map thing sto the virtual machine
17:58:34 <MrMobodies> sata controllers
17:58:38 <MrMobodies> so I mount drives in there
17:58:47 <MrMobodies> I have some bays that the drives just slide in
17:58:54 <gnif> I do the same with my sas controller
17:59:06 <gnif> I pass it into a VM which handles it
17:59:23 <therealazzurro> i like having my VMs moveable :D
17:59:27 <therealazzurro> https://imgur.com/a/M8YYs81
17:59:27 <MrMobodies> very handy
18:00:05 <MrMobodies> what one is that?
18:00:09 <brayden> MrMobodies, https://i.imgur.com/5qjSrpm.png this is how it looks in vcentre 7
18:00:17 <MrMobodies> aah the logo
18:00:26 <Ysjoelfir> EEVBlog convert 2566 miles to km
18:00:26 <EEVBlog> The result is: 4,129.566 km
18:00:29 <Ysjoelfir> yikes
18:00:42 <MrMobodies> looks straight forward
18:00:54 <gnif> EEVBlog convert -1 miles to km
18:00:54 <EEVBlog> The result is: -1.609 km
18:00:56 <MrMobodies> I have one thing that helps a lot
18:01:12 <MrMobodies> it is a network KVM switch
18:01:17 <MrMobodies> 16 port
18:01:23 <MrMobodies> I think it is a HP AF601A
18:02:08 <MrMobodies> one shortfall is that can't do remote resolutons greater than 1280 b 1024
18:02:59 <brayden> https://nc.brayden.io/s/axmiggYLSzP6CPY top of rack, https://nc.brayden.io/s/MiCcPqHeocFWk6i bottom
18:03:11 <brayden> probably doing better than that belkin KVM
18:03:17 <brayden> I have to run firefox 3.6 to get it to work with its own custom plugin
18:03:22 <brayden> and even then it's a glitchy mess
18:03:42 <MrMobodies> I still got that
18:04:12 <MrMobodies> oh no my mistake it was 22
18:04:42 <brayden> rackstuds are good for network gear btw
18:04:48 <gnif> damn you brayden with your big drive arrays!
18:05:15 <therealazzurro> gnif have you seen https://imgur.com/a/M8YYs81 :D
18:05:21 <brayden> yeah gnif I was an auction addict for a while
18:05:23 <MrMobodies> https://imgur.com/a/XmldHzC
18:05:23 <therealazzurro> regarding big drive arrays
18:05:24 <gnif> I did
18:05:25 <brayden> now I barely even look at them
18:05:29 <MrMobodies> Hp AF601A
18:05:49 <brayden> therealazzurro, you don't use the dark theme? :(
18:05:53 <MrMobodies> 2 remote users and 1 console
18:05:59 <brayden> if you click on your username there's a "switch theme" button
18:06:00 <brayden> soo nice
18:06:13 <therealazzurro> nah don't care about that
18:06:14 <MrMobodies> big drive arrays?
18:06:28 <MrMobodies> how big?
18:06:29 <gnif> at the moment for home I am running a DIY sas array I made by cutting the front of an old HP G2 (IIRC) and a heap of connectors.
18:06:57 Join: Guest|45885 ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
18:07:09 <brayden> 2TB drives in the netapp boxes, 12x3TB, 2x6TB and 2x8TB in the supermicro chassis
18:07:26 <brayden> tho the netapp one has got 40x2TB, 4 blank spots and 4x400GB SSDs for cache
18:07:33 <MrMobodies> Someone told me about Netapp
18:07:47 <therealazzurro> lol what are you doing with a netapp at home
18:07:58 <MrMobodies> they had a problem syncronization some database
18:08:06 <brayden> yeah not running their controllers, it's plugged into a debian VM
18:08:08 <MrMobodies> oh now this was some at the pub who worked for the water board
18:08:25 <MrMobodies> and he did the drawings and maps of all the pipes and swewers
18:09:01 <MrMobodies> I am not sure be he said something about some syncronising issue with Netapp
18:09:06 <gnif> right now I need to focus though. I picked up 20x 270W solar panels from Canberra a few weeks back some guy gave away... so my next project focus is on that
18:09:08 Join: knarfS ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
18:09:16 <brayden> oh nice
18:09:23 <therealazzurro> cool
18:09:24 <brayden> I had to get solar to deal with the power usage here
18:09:32 <MrMobodies> 5400w
18:09:39 <brayden> yeah 270w is a bit crusty nowadays
18:09:39 <Halcyon> Yeh same
18:09:48 <MrMobodies> planning to get batteries with it?
18:09:49 Quit: Guest|45885 ([email protected]) Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client
18:09:51 <Halcyon> I'm about to get another array and batteries installed next week
18:10:22 <gnif> already have the batteries
18:10:28 <gnif> it will replace a 2.2KW system
18:11:08 <gnif> 270w is crusty... unless it's free and you don't want to buy panels
18:11:18 <brayden> free is good yeah
18:11:38 <brayden> what panels were tehy?
18:11:51 <gnif> solar
18:11:52 <gnif> :P
18:11:55 <Halcyon> :P
18:11:58 <brayden> no manufacturer? lol
18:12:01 <gnif> really though, no idea
18:12:05 <brayden> lol
18:12:07 <gnif> not at home to check atm
18:12:24 <Halcyon> I'll check gnif, I'm sitting in the car outside your house :P
18:12:53 <brayden> watch a few lockpickinglawyer videos to figure out how to get through the garage door
18:12:54 <gnif> My inlaws are there atm... this should be interesting
18:13:09 <Halcyon> Oh that was the old man I saw naked :P
18:13:20 <MrMobodies> do you have feed in tarrifs?
18:13:22 <MrMobodies> before I moved I had a feed in tarrif, where I paid 15p per kw and export it back for 22p but scheme no longer exists.
18:13:29 <Halcyon> We do but they suck
18:13:37 <Halcyon> I think they are down to like 9c kWh now
18:13:39 <gnif> ^ thus batteries
18:13:40 <brayden> yeah the FIT is near useless in perth too
18:13:41 <MrMobodies> I made about 7p of the grid
18:13:43 <Halcyon> Exactly gnif
18:13:43 <brayden> oh fancy
18:13:46 <brayden> it's 7c/kwh here
18:13:48 <brayden> and falling
18:13:57 <MrMobodies> that is the only thing i miss
18:14:06 <MrMobodies> but I am waiting for incentives to come back
18:14:16 <brayden> they reckon battery incentives may be coming to WA
18:14:18 <MrMobodies> other wise I have to rely on batteries
18:14:25 <Halcyon> I'd rather be self suffient.
18:14:49 <MrMobodies> I was think I could have an economy 7 tarriff and meter installed
18:14:55 <MrMobodies> charge up the batteries in the night
18:14:56 <Halcyon> They are talking about implementing new systems here where the government can remotely turn off your solar supply and force you buy off the grid when things become unstable
18:14:59 <gnif> I paid something like $800 for 4x 12V 200aH lead acid batteries, ex DC, 12 months old... that coupled with the free panels I already had paid themselves off in 6-8 months
18:15:00 <MrMobodies> and export back to the grid in the day
18:15:07 <brayden> geez
18:15:10 <brayden> bit late for that tho
18:15:24 <MrMobodies> oh dear control the tariffs
18:15:28 <Halcyon> Yep
18:15:32 <MrMobodies> self sufficient comes to mind
18:15:37 <Halcyon> So I am getting in know before that crap comes in
18:15:41 <Halcyon> *now
18:16:09 <Halcyon> I'll just wrap my meter box in faraday material :P
18:16:16 <Halcyon> The signal is weak enough here, should be easy to block
18:16:39 <brayden> rip the SIM card out, put it in your phone and free data!
18:16:47 <brayden> someone did that in tasmania and got a hell of a bill iirc
18:16:50 <Halcyon> They probably use eSIMs these days
18:17:04 * gnif puts up a high gain repeater with a yagi pointed at Halcyon's meter box
18:17:27 <Halcyon> I guess a lot of these smart meters would have external antenna ports, just feed that to ground or something
18:17:38 <MrMobodies> aah Gnif 9600w that's sound plenty
18:17:41 <brayden> bigclive did a teardown of a smart meter a while back I think?
18:17:45 <brayden> I think it was a gas meter though
18:17:58 <MrMobodies> I wish they would stop calling it *smart*
18:18:02 <gnif> thats a thought... overload the radio and burn it out...
18:18:04 <brayden> haha
18:18:06 <brayden> everything is 'smart' now
18:18:06 <MrMobodies> it is just a 3g addon
18:18:34 <gnif> would it be considered tampering if you don't physically touch it?
18:18:54 * steve30 watches last weeks tim hunkin video
18:18:57 <MrMobodies> except for Dave's sony TV
18:19:05 <MrMobodies> if you don't agree to the term and conditions
18:19:17 <Halcyon> Or run your own IMSI catcher with OpenGSM
18:19:32 <Halcyon> Just super super low power so you don't get in trouble off ACMA
18:19:42 <Halcyon> Sorry OpenBTS
18:19:43 <MrMobodies> you mean tampering/obstructing the signal.
18:19:45 <MrMobodies> interesting one
18:20:06 <MrMobodies> if a house has materials that's obstructs it then I suppose little they can do anyway
18:20:26 <MrMobodies> the smart meter signal I mean
18:20:28 <brayden> over here the new meters are smartish but no back to the mothership communication, yet
18:20:41 <brayden> so I guess the solution is to put it behind a gate
18:21:08 <MrMobodies> in my cupboard I can put stuff and justify it if I wanted to
18:21:13 <Halcyon> I'm assuming the "owners" of the gear would lawfully be allowed on your property
18:21:15 <MrMobodies> which has the gas and electrics
18:21:35 <Halcyon> Meter readers for example
18:21:35 <brayden> I think if hte meter is behind a gate you're meant to tell them so they can organise self readings and whatnot
18:21:36 <MrMobodies> I don't mind if they want to read the meter
18:21:41 <brayden> and then they come by yearly to make sure you weren't lying
18:22:00 <MrMobodies> I get 4 visits a year I think
18:22:07 <MrMobodies> to read the meter
18:22:22 <brayden> man at some point I need to get the whole box rebuilt
18:22:23 <Halcyon> My meter box is locked, but it's keyed in such a way that they can open it
18:22:35 <brayden> whoever did it hung it upside down so the door doesnt' stay on
18:22:36 <brayden> total pain
18:22:37 <Halcyon> It's one of those Abloy locks
18:23:11 <brayden> also no RCDs lol
18:23:48 <MrMobodies> all they need to stop in their tracks is a good grounding to earth
18:24:09 <Halcyon> Or could you just chuck a resistor in the antenna port?
18:24:10 <MrMobodies> sorry poor joe
18:24:27 <brayden> man you know they're just going to come out and replace it again lol
18:24:36 <Halcyon> :P
18:24:53 <MrMobodies> In America I read about all those "smart meter2 fires
18:25:10 <MrMobodies> but the documentaries show possibilities or arcing
18:25:32 <MrMobodies> where the contacts can be loose
18:25:36 <Halcyon> I guess through mis-installation though?
18:25:41 <MrMobodies> shouldn't they have replaced the housing?
18:26:02 <MrMobodies> if the contacts/pins were larger on the older units
18:26:09 <MrMobodies> that's could cause arcing
18:26:26 <MrMobodies> and someone forgot to tighten them up when they slid them in
18:26:50 * Halcyon nibbles steve30
18:26:57 <gnif> this one comes with a safey light: https://imgur.com/WxqQIEB
18:27:00 <Halcyon> Don't eat all those biscuits at once :P
18:27:02 <gnif> *safetu
18:27:05 <gnif> **safety
18:27:10 <Halcyon> Hahah
18:27:14 <Halcyon> A little toasty there
18:27:43 <brayden> woah
18:27:44 <brayden> feeling safer already
18:27:46 <MrMobodies> what happened with that?
18:27:57 <gnif> contact resistance
18:28:00 <MrMobodies> oh safety light hwere it is glowing
18:28:09 <brayden> don't touch the light
18:28:19 <Halcyon> I think that's the light that indicates danger
18:28:27 <MrMobodies> 30 years ago I was helping some move into a council flat
18:28:33 <MrMobodies> and the electrics in there was very bad
18:28:45 <MrMobodies> It had exposed mains terminals int he cupboard
18:29:00 <MrMobodies> thick cable and tied together and went into the meter
18:29:05 <Halcyon> My mate bought an old ex-government house in Canberra, half of his sockets had missing grounds
18:29:06 <MrMobodies> very shoddy and unsage
18:29:08 <brayden> wow
18:29:14 <brayden> my mum's house was pretty good
18:29:22 <brayden> cracked face plates on AC outlets in the bathroom
18:29:28 <brayden> she's wondering why she gets a tingle from them
18:30:02 <MrMobodies> that;s worrying earthing issue
18:30:29 <MrMobodies> I was a boarding school and the owners criticised the amount of things I had plugged in
18:31:00 <MrMobodies> I said look I brought some surge protector sockets (for my sake), I made everything is safe
18:31:11 <MrMobodies> and took them in the middle of the building where the two house join
18:31:25 <MrMobodies> and showed them the electrics there outside exposed in the wet
18:31:42 <Halcyon> Just a little soggy, it's still good, it's still good
18:31:46 <MrMobodies> not waterproof rated all cowboy work
18:32:15 <MrMobodies> one day I had an argument with one of them and told them get out of my bedroom
18:32:29 <Halcyon> https://youtu.be/0LTgNVwfMAE?t=45
18:32:35 <MrMobodies> they don't pay for it the LEA does and whatever I do is my business as long as it is safe
18:32:42 <MrMobodies> and they left me alone after that

18:37:53 <Halcyon> Howdy Skaface82
18:37:59 <steve30> yeah, looks like we might be afforded the luxury of going for a coffee next week
18:38:05 <Halcyon> BRB, need to load the dishwasher
18:38:18 <Skaface82> i only just saw that there is an official channel for this thing
18:38:26 <Skaface82> in that fire video

18:40:14 <MrMobodies> just looking back miss gnif comment, 24 core threadripper, what motherboard do is it on?
18:40:16 <Skaface82> does Dave hang out here at all or is it pretty much a fan channel
18:40:41 <MrMobodies> Brayden: i don't know what gen possible old
18:41:06 <MrMobodies> I mean for the PCI graphics cards and stuff you have on there
18:41:47 <steve30> I think Dave came in once. He doesn;t really like irc
18:41:51 <MrMobodies> looks like that needs a lot of cooling
18:42:12 <MrMobodies> I like his new broadcasting station
18:42:13 <K> hello pastries
18:42:38 <MrMobodies> little editing, more talk, I love the sound of his voice
18:42:47 <MrMobodies> very honest sounding
18:43:33 <MrMobodies> especially when it comes to bullsh*t
18:43:41 <MrMobodies> and marketting
18:46:13 <MrMobodies> Very nice time in here but I got to bed.
18:46:43 <Ysjoelfir> Hello K , mr. cake
18:47:21 Quit: ichtier ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
18:47:57 <Halcyon> Skaface82, well welcome :)
18:48:24 <Halcyon> Skaface82, Dave has been here very occasionally, usually when he isn't busy and we organise a bit of a chat
18:48:56 <Skaface82> ty Halcyon
18:49:00 <Skaface82> ok cool
18:49:35 <Ysjoelfir> I have to say that I... never.... saw him here. And how log have I been idling around now? 2 years? 3? :D
18:49:36 <Halcyon> The reason why we haven't done more publically announced "Dave chats" is because to moderate something like that would be difficult
18:49:56 <Ysjoelfir> yep, that would be a huge pain
18:49:59 <Halcyon> He has been here at least twice
18:50:11 <Ysjoelfir> :O you didn't tell me!
18:50:16 <Halcyon> It's just easier to spin up a live video and have him answer stuff in person
18:50:21 <Halcyon> I did tell you, but you were asleep
18:50:29 <Ysjoelfir> lol
18:50:39 <Ysjoelfir> shame on me, being on the opposite side of the world ;P
18:50:48 <Halcyon> I could probably get in touch with David2 again and see if he's interested
18:50:52 <Halcyon> He had a few fans
18:51:27 <Halcyon> The thing is, when you have everyone wanting to ask questions all at once, it just becomes a mess
18:52:06 <Ysjoelfir> yep, that would be a huge mess.
18:52:52 <Halcyon> IRC isn't the best medium for that. Most of us are here because we like the old technology and part of the reason why we launched it on Austnet was that it's Australia's last IRC server.
18:53:12 <Halcyon> But it's good here, we often just talk shit amongst ourselves
18:53:19 <Halcyon> Especially when Ampera's around
18:53:20 <Halcyon> :P
18:53:24 <Ysjoelfir> I wonder if there is a "Germnet". which sounds hilarious :D
18:53:34 <Halcyon> Invent one :P
18:54:05 <Ysjoelfir> finally some more stuff I can shove into my little intel atom Server that reconnects every day!
18:54:15 <Halcyon> kraut.net.de ?
18:54:18 <Ysjoelfir> lol
18:59:29 <K> potato.net.lv
18:59:42 <Ysjoelfir> that would be your server :P
18:59:47 <K> yes

19:07:29 <Halcyon> What kind of cake?
19:07:37 <Halcyon> Why don't you livestream that Steve?
19:07:41 <steve30> chocolate chip
19:07:44 <Halcyon> I'd watch Cooking with Stee
19:08:07 <Halcyon> You could call yourself the "Masterbaker" :P
19:08:08 <steve30> I'll have to do that another time, as my Mum is here and she'd just get in the way
19:09:03 <Halcyon> You should could be called "Masterbake with Steve"
19:09:07 <Halcyon> I'm full of ideas :P
19:09:13 <Halcyon> *Your show
19:09:27 <steve30> I did bread this morning :)
19:09:40 <steve30> That would make for a fascinating video.
19:10:04 <steve30> Put ingedients in bread maker.... Press Start.... Wait 5 hours.
19:10:16 <Halcyon> You could be like the topless baker: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnIpJ1l-nx4
19:10:25 <Ysjoelfir> lol Halcyon, kraut.tech is still available xD
19:10:36 <Halcyon> It has a nice ring to it Ysjoelfir
19:10:43 <Ysjoelfir> as well as kraut.digital
19:11:01 <Ysjoelfir> let me see what my hoster wants for kraut.tech, I might order that just for fun
19:11:54 <Ysjoelfir> wth
19:12:02 <Ysjoelfir> 95.63€ per year
19:12:11 <Ysjoelfir> thats three times as much as my .engineering domain costs
19:12:24 <K> Das is eine grosse Kraut!
19:12:32 <Ysjoelfir> It is indeed a very big kraut
19:12:59 <K> is "Kraut" synonym for "money" in german ?
19:13:02 <Halcyon> Let me see what I can get it for
19:13:14 <Ysjoelfir> oh wait, I pay my engineering tld in 2 year packages. so that would make it 6 times as expensive
19:13:22 <Halcyon> I have a registrar account
19:13:27 <Ysjoelfir> K : no, but I like the idea :P
19:13:36 <Ysjoelfir> uh, nice Halcyon :D I might migrate to you than! XD
19:13:37 <K> here we do
19:14:04 <Halcyon> I can do you mates rates Ysjoelfir
19:14:17 <Halcyon> Depends on the domain though, not all of them are that much cheaper
19:14:59 <Ysjoelfir> I have a .engineering, a .technology and a .de registered right now.
19:15:18 <steve30> Halcyon, I could nibble on him
19:15:26 <Halcyon> .tech costs me AUD$86/yr
19:15:58 <therealazzurro> i dont even have tech lol only .technology
19:15:59 <therealazzurro> wtf
19:16:05 <K> EEVBlog convert 86 AUD to EUR
19:16:05 <EEVBlog> I can't seem to convert between those two units.
19:16:06 <therealazzurro> 17,90 a year
19:16:14 <Halcyon> .technology is AUD$27.81/yr
19:16:48 <therealazzurro> ha your price is .13 AUD cheaper than mine lol
19:16:52 <Halcyon> Yep
19:16:54 <K> order a fancy domain and get add 2 months to your DHL packages delivery time!
19:17:03 <Halcyon> Some have very little margin on them
19:17:17 <therealazzurro> de is the most ridiculous
19:17:39 <therealazzurro> 3.8 a year and that still expensive
19:18:06 <Halcyon> .com.au costs me AUD12.99/yr
19:18:19 <Halcyon> .com.de is $80
19:18:30 <Halcyon> .de is $134
19:18:33 <Halcyon> Fucking crazy
19:18:36 <therealazzurro> lol
19:18:44 <therealazzurro> .com.au costs me 30.9AUD
19:19:02 <therealazzurro> .de costs me 5,93AUD lol
19:19:18 <Halcyon> Hahahha .rich is $4119.95/yr
19:19:18 <therealazzurro> .com.de i don't even have
19:19:36 <therealazzurro> lol
19:19:47 <Halcyon> I reckon that would be my most expensive TLD I can sell
19:20:01 <Halcyon> And that's my buy price
19:20:10 <Halcyon> The retail price is $6180.00/yr
19:20:32 <therealazzurro> sick
19:21:45 <Halcyon> Ysjoelfir, I can do you a .berlin for $75.20/yr

19:22:54 <Halcyon> Oh there is a .gmbh now
19:23:01 <therealazzurro> 59.34AUD here :P seems i'm getting european tlds cheaper than you but outside EU TLDs seem to be cheaper for you in turn
19:23:30 <Halcyon> Yep
19:23:37 <Halcyon> This is a UK/AU company so it makes sense
19:23:39 <therealazzurro> yes gmbh is 40.44AUD here
19:24:00 <therealazzurro> yep mine is a german one
19:24:08 <Ysjoelfir> ew, germans!

19:24:31 <Halcyon> Hehehe .wang

19:24:35 <Ysjoelfir> lol
19:24:36 <therealazzurro> i'm not german though :D
19:24:40 <therealazzurro> lol
19:24:40 <Ysjoelfir> ah

19:25:34 <Halcyon> Alll of the penis jokes
19:26:11 <therealazzurro> as long as your pen is not in your penis
19:26:30 <Halcyon> That would sting
19:26:47 <therealazzurro> ya probably
19:28:55 <Halcyon> I should probably finish the last part of dinner and get it in the oven
19:29:16 <therealazzurro> mhh dinner
19:29:25 <therealazzurro> that's something i have to wait 6 more hours for
19:29:51 <Halcyon> It's 1930 here
19:30:10 <therealazzurro> lucky you
19:30:21 <Halcyon> Nah
19:30:23 * T3sl4 munches a omelette on toast
19:30:24 <Ysjoelfir> I basically just got up
19:30:31 <Halcyon> It's just closert to having to go back to work next week
19:30:35 <Halcyon> Morning T3sl4
19:30:36 * Ysjoelfir munches a Stuten
19:30:53 <T3sl4> morn Halcyon
19:31:03 <therealazzurro> hi
19:31:23 * Ysjoelfir offers T3sl4 a slize of his Stuten
19:31:27 * T3sl4 gives therealazzurro an egg
19:31:32 <therealazzurro> Ysjoelfir: why is that
19:31:42 <Halcyon> Show me pics of your stuten Ysjoelfir :P
19:31:44 <Ysjoelfir> because I like the taste
19:31:58 <therealazzurro> is dis egg for throwing or for eating
19:32:06 <therealazzurro> no i meant why just got up
19:32:13 <therealazzurro> is it that early at yours?
19:32:15 <Halcyon> Speaking of eggs, I need to make these tea eggs one day
19:32:22 <Halcyon> With soy sauce and bollocks
19:32:22 <T3sl4> we're breakfasting apparently, but Halcyon could always use one in the face ;)
19:32:27 <therealazzurro> what is a stuten anyway
19:32:34 <therealazzurro> xD
19:32:52 <therealazzurro> unfortunately idk how to do the throwing thing in irc
19:33:06 <therealazzurro> and i couldn't be bothered googling it
19:33:08 <therealazzurro> :P
19:33:10 <Halcyon> You can type /me followed by stuff
19:33:17 <Halcyon> like...
19:33:20 * T3sl4 stuff
19:33:20 * therealazzurro followed by stuff
19:33:22 <therealazzurro> :D
19:33:23 * Halcyon cuddles T3sl4
19:33:42 * therealazzurro throws the egg in Halcyons face
19:33:50 <therealazzurro> here you go, my pleasure
19:33:54 <Halcyon> Nom
19:34:36 <Halcyon> I think Guga did some tea egg recipes of late...
19:35:22 <Halcyon> This one: https://youtu.be/FtZT5Q4nHbA?t=99
19:35:29 <Halcyon> Looks super easy but delicious
19:36:08 <therealazzurro> speaking of tea eggs and asian style food.. anyone knows korean englishmen?
19:36:17 <Ysjoelfir> Halcyon https://drive.google.com/file/d/1yAd8DLLz34EvLdCxW0EaraZHCRhDeCK5/view?usp=sharing
19:36:33 <Ysjoelfir> And tea eggs... I MUST do them again. those are just so yppr
19:36:40 <Halcyon> Cream cheese and marmalade?
19:36:58 <T3sl4> schmand?
19:37:15 <Ysjoelfir> therealazzurro no, its 11:36 here. But I went to sleep late and got up late, so... meh.
19:37:20 <therealazzurro> jeez are you all germany fanboys or just plain germans? lol
19:37:27 <T3sl4> nein
19:37:31 <therealazzurro> i see
19:37:33 <Halcyon> I'm Euro trash living/grew up in Australia
19:37:36 <Ysjoelfir> Halcyon, as T3sl4 said: its Schmand^^
19:37:50 <Halcyon> Yes, but what the fuck is Schmand?
19:38:01 <Ysjoelfir> xD you know sour cream, right?
19:38:06 <Halcyon> Ohhh yeh
19:38:13 <Halcyon> Never thought about having it on bread before
19:38:16 <Ysjoelfir> immagine that, without any spices and more fat
19:38:27 <Halcyon> Sour cream doesn't usually have spices?
19:38:32 <Halcyon> It's just sour cream
19:38:33 <Ysjoelfir> its 24% fat.
19:38:40 <therealazzurro> yuk
19:38:49 <Halcyon> That's fairly typical for cream I would think? Let me go to the fridge and check
19:38:53 <Ysjoelfir> ah, then you thought about the sour cream I meant, and not what is sold (at least in german stores) as sour cream.
19:39:32 <Halcyon> I have regular cream which is 35.6% fat
19:39:48 <Ysjoelfir> also therealazzurro... I am one of those nasty krauts, yes. which is why I am allowed to make fun of it :P
19:39:49 <therealazzurro> germans.. they don't know what good food is, anywhere above southern germany
19:40:02 <Halcyon> Our "sour cream" literally comes in cartons or in little tubs like regular fresh cream, except that it has soured
19:40:07 <Halcyon> Nothing else is added to it
19:40:27 <Ysjoelfir> I would more or less say the inverted thing, mr. therealazzurro :D everything below northrine westfalia is bad. xD
19:40:34 <therealazzurro> lol didn't know germans are called krauts
19:40:46 <Halcyon> therealazzurro, you've never watched Hogan's Heroes?
19:40:47 <Halcyon> :P
19:40:51 <Ysjoelfir> Halcyon, that sounds very nice. regular sour cream around here is 15 to 20% fat oO
19:41:10 <therealazzurro> so you are putting tons of smelly sauce on your schnitzel?
19:41:10 <Halcyon> I'm just looking now...
19:41:30 <Halcyon> Regular sour cream here is about 26% fat
19:41:35 <Ysjoelfir> ok, for schnitzels I actually prefer the austrian variant
19:41:41 <Halcyon> Light sour cream is 13%
19:41:48 <therealazzurro> no@Hogan's Heroes
19:42:16 <Halcyon> I love Hogan's Heroes. Once of my favourite series'
19:42:17 <therealazzurro> and is your schnitzel about 1cm thick or more like 3-5mm?
19:42:20 <Ysjoelfir> but I hate eg. the way bavarians eat their sausage. thats so inhumane :D
19:42:34 <Ysjoelfir> I like it thin, but I can't get thin ones around here.
19:42:45 <Halcyon> You could just belt the crap out of it Ysjoelfir
19:42:47 <T3sl4> I KNOW NOZING!
19:42:54 <therealazzurro> haha that's a very special sausage and you don't want to try digesting the hull of it lol
19:43:41 <Ysjoelfir> Halcyon.... well... yes, but no. mrs. landlordlady would be fucked up about the pounding.
19:43:50 <Ysjoelfir> and regarding the sausage.... true, but still :D
19:43:51 <therealazzurro> yeah and that's a proof of my previous statements about germans and food anywhere else than southern germany. you can't even get thin schnitzels there because they don't know sh*t about it :D
19:44:04 <Halcyon> https://youtu.be/ypE2oT-8Zag?t=14
19:44:09 <Halcyon> The best show
19:44:55 <therealazzurro> mhh thanks now i want some weisswurst and pretzels
19:45:12 <Ysjoelfir> therealazzurro well, still there is nothing better than eg. Himmel un Ääd or just... kale. :D
19:45:23 <T3sl4> eh, a weiss guy, eh? *boint*
19:45:51 <therealazzurro> huh?
19:45:58 <Halcyon> Heheh
19:46:05 <therealazzurro> what is a Himmel un Ääd
19:46:17 <T3sl4> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yscaDkzHqek
19:46:36 <Ysjoelfir> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Himmel_und_Erde
19:47:01 <therealazzurro> lol
19:47:09 * therealazzurro puts a Weisswurst in T3sl4s face
19:47:50 <Halcyon> There is an awesome Bavarian restaurant near here: https://www.bohemian-euro.com.au/
19:47:58 <Halcyon> It is so delicious
19:48:16 <Halcyon> https://www.bohemian-euro.com.au/menu
19:48:49 <therealazzurro> Ysjoelfir: that's one of the things that make me run. run and don't look back, just run until i collapse
19:49:07 <Ysjoelfir> you don't like blood sausage?
19:49:46 <Halcyon> They do these big meat troughs https://scontent-syd2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.6435-9/86234893_3488602661212631_6264185788053848064_n.jpg?_nc_cat=104&ccb=1-3&_nc_sid=973b4a&_nc_ohc=yMbBvHdV0cYAX-Gkw36&_nc_ht=scontent-syd2-1.xx&oh=4e68aa3e138cbebce10ce9e6175d545d&oe=60967002
19:49:49 <Ysjoelfir> Halcyon, that doesn't look too bad :)
19:49:52 <therealazzurro> Halcyon: looks delicious!
19:49:52 Quit: old-jo2 ([email protected]) Quit: Leaving
19:49:59 <Halcyon> It's supposed to be "shared" Hehe
19:50:12 <Ysjoelfir> shared? what does that even mean?
19:50:18 <T3sl4> Halcyon: i'll take one of each
19:50:21 <therealazzurro> awesome!
19:50:25 <Ysjoelfir> we're talking about food, aren't we? one does not share food
19:50:28 <T3sl4> you can have the plates
19:50:50 <therealazzurro> Ysjoelfir no, blood sausage is yikes. as well as apples combined with potatoes lol
19:51:02 <Halcyon> Last time I went there, I had one, even between two there was so much food
19:51:03 <therealazzurro> haha
19:51:16 <Ysjoelfir> I see Haxe, Bratwurst, Leberkaese, Sauerkraut, Knoedel.... nice. I take the girls as a side dish as well.
19:51:30 <therealazzurro> look at this: https://www.facebook.com/LeopoldauerAlm/posts/10158762106550695
19:51:32 <Halcyon> The girls are just plain Aussie girls. You could do better
19:51:52 <Halcyon> That's heart attack material that
19:51:53 <Ysjoelfir> therealazzurro so you don't like liver with apple purre, mashed potatoes and onions as well?
19:52:07 <Halcyon> Although that burger looks delicious

19:52:47 <therealazzurro> liver makes me puke
19:52:47 <Ysjoelfir> we have one shop like that as well. but it wasn't THAT good. it was just... gigantic
19:52:57 <Ysjoelfir> why?
19:53:01 <therealazzurro> apple purre is a desert
19:53:10 <therealazzurro> and mashed potatoes are dilicious
19:53:18 <gnif> back.... stupid wireless modem went flat and I brought with me one of those stupid crippled data only USB cables that look like normal cables
19:53:34 <Halcyon> I'm not a huuuuuge fan of liver, but I like pate's and things
19:53:39 <Ysjoelfir> I like the idea of using as much of the animal as possible, so eating the stuff inside is not a bad thing, is it?
19:53:53 <therealazzurro> no it is not but it can be left to those who like it
19:54:45 <Halcyon> Like dogs?
19:55:06 <Ysjoelfir> Though I didn't try everything yet. I already had liver (of beef and chicken), chicken hearts and beef kidneys. it all was very delicious actually, though the hearts felt strange in the mough, being pretty... chewy and "popped" when you bit onto them the first time.
19:55:07 <therealazzurro> Halcyon: yeah heart attacks is what you will get from eating this on a regular basis :D
19:55:35 <Halcyon> Anyway, I'm going to go finish dinner off
19:55:37 <Halcyon> I'll take pics :)
19:55:39 <therealazzurro> Ysjoelfir: you're supposed to cook the hearts before you eat them
19:55:45 <Halcyon> Ysjoelfir loves to see my meat
19:55:48 <Ysjoelfir> I know.
19:55:48 <T3sl4> i love gizzards in gravy or stuffing, with chicken/turkey dinner say
19:55:50 <Ysjoelfir> and yes.
19:56:03 <T3sl4> KA LI MA!
19:56:07 <Halcyon> therealazzurro, if you like food, have you see the Cooking section of the forum?
19:56:08 <Ysjoelfir> whats a gizzard? gnif combined with a lizzard?
19:56:24 <therealazzurro> no haven't seen that
19:56:32 <T3sl4> oh not gizzard specifically, giblets i meant
19:56:40 <T3sl4> gizzard is the tougher stomachparts of a bird
19:56:40 <Halcyon> https://www.eevblog.com/forum/cooking/
19:57:03 <therealazzurro> interesting
19:57:13 <gnif> well when I was born my dad said I was a lizzard because I changed colour three times
19:57:17 <T3sl4> tougher in comparison to other animals that is
19:58:25 <therealazzurro> gnif lol as did my fiancee. liver/blood issues?
19:58:44 <Ysjoelfir> I never tried that, T3sl4. Never saw it available to but though
19:58:49 <gnif> no, just refused to suck air
19:59:03 <therealazzurro> so stubborn? :D
19:59:12 <gnif> I hate change
19:59:30 <therealazzurro> rofl
19:59:35 <Ysjoelfir> you should have seen him when the server burnt down
19:59:40 <Ysjoelfir> THAT was a change, I tell you
19:59:41 * T3sl4 differentiates gnif
19:59:43 <Halcyon> gnif, one day, I will drag you out kicking and screaming
19:59:53 <Halcyon> Oh speaking of going out, have you been to Bootlegger Bar?
19:59:56 <gnif> Halcyon, I am in Katoomba!

20:00:11 <gnif> lol
20:00:29 <gnif> no, never been to any of the local bars
20:00:36 <gnif> not really a bar person
20:00:40 <Halcyon> It's a smoked meats restaurant
20:00:43 <Halcyon> Less of a bar

20:02:35 <Halcyon> It is soooo good, we should take Dave :P
20:02:36 <K> is that the big jumping rat?
20:02:43 <Halcyon> He eats like a horse
20:03:01 <gnif> he would have too.... he is too active
20:03:16 <therealazzurro> Halcyon: i would destroy that piece of meat within minutes.
20:03:18 <Halcyon> Just planting the seed... one of these days :P
20:03:37 <T3sl4> keep your seed to yourself, Halcyon
20:03:49 <Halcyon> Bah

20:07:43 <gnif> https://brodburger.com.au/
20:07:51 <gnif> awesome
20:07:59 <Halcyon> My favourite place at the moment in Canberra is Lamsheds

20:09:29 <Halcyon> I'm down there in three weeks for my second COVID jab if you're free?
20:09:31 <therealazzurro> bloody aussie blokes won't let me into their magnificent country
20:10:09 <therealazzurro> with all their magnificent burgers and meats
20:10:13 <gnif> that's because you will eat is out of burgers
20:10:18 <gnif> *us
20:10:34 <Halcyon> I plan to make a weekend of it, COVID shot isn't until Monday 26th

20:11:03 <Halcyon> Gah
20:11:04 <therealazzurro> gnif you don't share your burgers huh
20:11:12 <gnif> heeeeel no
20:11:19 <therealazzurro> haha :D
20:11:39 <Halcyon> Anyway, back soon guys
20:11:45 * K cries
20:11:48 <therealazzurro> cya later alligator
20:11:51 <gnif> Halcyon... what is your dinner?
20:11:57 <therealazzurro> now.. burgers
20:12:05 <therealazzurro> (but he won't admit)
20:12:06 <K> imma eat this broken velcro strap :|
20:12:06 * gnif is trying to keep him here till it's cold
20:12:20 <Halcyon> I am making individual pot pies with a chicken, leek and corn with a creamy mustardy type sauce I just made up
20:12:24 * T3sl4 gives K some free electrons
20:12:24 <K> and a pencil.
20:12:25 <Halcyon> Little bit of chilli
20:12:49 <gnif> hrmmm, sounds yummy
20:12:49 <Halcyon> I haven't put them in the oven yet
20:12:55 <Halcyon> The pastry is defrosting
20:13:03 <gnif> the pencil and broken velcro strap that is
20:13:07 <therealazzurro> see, he doesn't admit
20:13:28 <therealazzurro> K, nothing to eat at home?
20:13:45 <Halcyon> It's not Ramadan yet?
20:14:18 <Halcyon> Doesn't that start mid-April?
20:14:24 <Halcyon> Or is it different everywhere?
20:14:24 <therealazzurro> no idea
20:14:42 <therealazzurro> oh K is Ramadaning?
20:14:50 <therealazzurro> didn't know that
20:15:10 <K> i'm at work
20:15:14 <K> and it is too early to eat
20:15:22 <therealazzurro> it is never too early to eat
20:15:25 <Ysjoelfir> what is "work"?
20:15:27 <therealazzurro> and never too late
20:15:30 <K> i have a sammich and apple pie-ish something
20:15:46 <K> work is where you don't own the fridge.
20:15:46 <therealazzurro> doesn't sound like burgerz
20:15:58 <therealazzurro> not interested
20:16:02 <Ysjoelfir> oh damn, K! that sounds like a place I don't want to be
20:16:10 <K> it is horrible.
20:16:30 <therealazzurro> no food deliverydoo-daas?
20:16:50 <Halcyon> Work here mandates a fridge. If they can't provide a kitchen etc... on-shift, you get a meal allowance paid to you
20:17:06 <Halcyon> Microwave and oven as well
20:17:30 <therealazzurro> more or less same here. besides that, I'm in home office for like a year now
20:17:36 <therealazzurro> more like over a year now
20:17:42 <Halcyon> I wish I could work from home :(
20:17:56 <therealazzurro> what business are you in?
20:18:01 <Halcyon> Government
20:18:04 <therealazzurro> i'm in IT, that's easy
20:18:09 <Halcyon> Cyber security etc...
20:18:25 <therealazzurro> so why can't you work from home?
20:18:31 <Halcyon> Because Government
20:18:31 <therealazzurro> too insecure? :D
20:18:34 <Halcyon> Yep
20:18:35 <therealazzurro> geez
20:19:34 <therealazzurro> haha we have offices in sydney, melbourne and brisbane. maybe we even have worked with you in the past
20:19:59 <therealazzurro> not me in person but some of my multi-thousand colleagues maybe
20:21:58 <brayden> man, gotta work out what I'm going to do for food at the new job
20:22:03 <brayden> it's trapped in the shit end of town
20:22:13 <brayden> don't think there's a burger joint in sight
20:24:04 <brayden> there's a weird abundance of japanese places so that might be interesting
20:25:28 <T3sl4> https://i.redd.it/0jjw8hyrx2s61.jpg
20:25:41 <Ysjoelfir> wrong
20:26:03 <Ysjoelfir> you have a lasagna with either a middle cheese layer or a lasagna with double sided cheese crust, which sounds pretty awesome to me
20:27:00 <T3sl4> :D
20:27:03 <therealazzurro> wow you actually do know something about food :D go spread the message in your region, not all hope is lost
20:27:04 <therealazzurro> xD
20:27:08 <therealazzurro> (sorry)
20:30:47 <Halcyon> Which company do you work for therealazzurro if you don't mind me asking?
20:31:16 * Ysjoelfir searches for the smelly pointy stick to poke therealazzurro 's eyes with :P
20:31:21 <Halcyon> brayden, you could always pack lunch? I do most of the time
20:31:31 <brayden> sounds like effort
20:31:35 Nick: m0drobert is now known as modrobert
20:32:25 <Halcyon> I just make more dinners than I need to, like curry's, pastas etc... then freeze them
20:32:38 <Halcyon> Even soup, that freezes well
20:32:40 <Halcyon> Fried rice
20:32:45 <brayden> going to see how they operate there at first I guess
20:32:47 <Halcyon> So many options
20:32:53 <brayden> since they might want to take me out
20:33:01 <Halcyon> It also stops you spending $15/day on coffees and foods
20:33:10 <brayden> haha
20:33:11 <therealazzurro> Halcyon i don't think i can tell this in public - security and safety reasons...
20:33:22 <Halcyon> You can PM if you feel comforatable?
20:33:23 <brayden> thank god I can take it or leave it with coffees
20:33:26 <Halcyon> If not, I completely understand
20:33:34 <brayden> therealazzurro the internet is Safe and Secure
20:33:43 <Halcyon> I need my coffee in the morning but I have my own machine at home and a travel mug :)
20:33:47 <therealazzurro> brayden yeah sure xD
20:33:55 <Ysjoelfir> we wanted to try prepacking / prepcooking. like cooking loads of shit on one day and freeze it for the week to take to work.
20:34:27 <brayden> can yo say what industry?
20:34:33 <therealazzurro> we are doing comms stuff for public safety and various other fields
20:34:36 <Halcyon> Ysjoelfir, if that works for you, great. I just make more each dinner than I need to eat, then freeze the leftovers. That way I have variety and I don't have to go out of my way
20:34:41 <brayden> oh
20:35:05 <Halcyon> My guess is maybe SAP, NEC or Motorola, something along those lines
20:35:24 <therealazzurro> where does SAP make communications stuff?
20:35:28 <Ysjoelfir> Halcyon, we wanted to do that especially for the days we are just not in the mood to cook and would otherwise buy expensive takeout meals. not for regular everyday meals :)
20:35:29 <Halcyon> They don't
20:35:35 <therealazzurro> but we do :D
20:36:38 <Halcyon> We also use Codan as a supplier
20:37:29 <Halcyon> But they aren't a particularly huge company in terms of staff
20:37:43 <therealazzurro> we are in Aerospace, Defence, Transport, Security, Electronics sector
20:37:53 <Halcyon> Yeh I figured
20:38:00 <Halcyon> Could be any number of companies we deal with
20:38:26 <therealazzurro> :)
20:39:14 <Halcyon> I know I have pies in the oven, but I kind of want a hotdog now
20:39:26 <Halcyon> Bloody gnif got me looking at this menu
20:40:10 * Ysjoelfir unwraps T3sl4 's hotdog for Halcyon
20:40:27 <Halcyon> T3sl4 is uncircumsized?
20:40:32 <T3sl4> Ysjoelfir, i was already circumcised once, i don't need another
20:40:40 <Halcyon> :P
20:40:40 <Ysjoelfir> lol
20:41:50 <Halcyon> https://scontent-syd2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.6435-9/170012854_3989983934355563_3887153791115505634_n.jpg?_nc_cat=100&ccb=1-3&_nc_sid=973b4a&_nc_ohc=89EOm3FWoBkAX9to00n&_nc_ht=scontent-syd2-1.xx&oh=4d0551d6bf94183358550d481562114e&oe=6095431F
20:41:56 <Halcyon> That pulled pork burger looks amazeballs
20:42:48 <Ysjoelfir> I had pulled pork flavored chips yesterday.
20:43:01 <Ysjoelfir> And I made a real pulled pork like... 3 weeks ago
20:43:05 <Halcyon> Not pringles or some shit like that
20:43:06 <Halcyon> ?
20:43:21 <Halcyon> I had Cheeseburger pringles the other day, they were.... weird
20:43:35 <Ysjoelfir> Crunchips. I don't like those glued together chips like pringles
20:43:50 <Halcyon> No, the potato flakes they use taste so fake
20:44:04 <Halcyon> It's like Subway sandwiches, they all taste the same
20:45:38 <Ysjoelfir> yep. "Do you want a Honey oat, italian or cheese oregano?" - "yes."
20:45:44 <Halcyon> Hahaha
20:46:13 <T3sl4> https://i.redd.it/tf1n2szn72s61.jpg
20:46:22 <Ysjoelfir> lol
20:46:34 <gnif> Lol, one message and Halcyon is still here
20:46:35 <Halcyon> Stupid cat
20:46:51 <Halcyon> I'm always here :P
20:47:12 <Ysjoelfir> well... great
20:47:17 <Ysjoelfir> now IIIII want a sandwich
20:47:47 <Halcyon> Best fresh sandwiches I've ever had are from this place: http://www.bigbiteonpitt.com.au/bigbiteonpitt/Menu.html
20:47:51 <gnif> Seems people have misunderstood the outage, I am getting flooded with requests to help bring servers back online at GS now
20:47:59 * steve30 meows at gnif
20:48:01 <Halcyon> 1 sandwich would feed two people
20:48:07 <gnif> as if I managed to jump the queue, or something
20:48:23 <Ysjoelfir> well gnif, looks like you are a sorcerer
20:48:24 <Halcyon> gnif, the answer is simple: You charge $300 per hour
20:48:25 <Halcyon> :P
20:48:35 <gnif> to do nothing...
20:48:44 <Halcyon> *shrug*
20:48:48 <Ysjoelfir> that sounds like a perfect work condition for me
20:49:03 <Halcyon> If they want to pay you to do nothing but fire off a few emails, so be it?
20:49:52 <gnif> haha, nah... it would feel wrong to do that since the only reason eev was given priority is because of Dave's public presence
20:50:24 <gnif> angry forum of nerds lead by an angry nerd... imagine the PR nightmare
20:50:27 <Halcyon> Yes but Geoff, you also have a business to run
20:50:44 <Halcyon> You don't do this shit for free
20:51:10 <gnif> No, but I don't accept money for things that I can't do anything for
20:51:32 <Halcyon> Do you want me to respond to your emails while you are away?
20:51:40 <Ysjoelfir> lol
20:51:42 <Halcyon> I promise I won't use the fuck word
20:51:48 <gnif> lol
20:52:21 * brayden looks back
20:52:22 <brayden> wait what
20:52:26 <brayden> what's wrong with the fuck word?
20:52:27 <gnif> happy to help people restore/rebuild broken systems though
20:52:43 <gnif> isnt the fuck word "sex"
20:52:45 Join: Guest|39355 ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
20:52:46 <gnif> ?
20:52:50 <brayden> shrug
20:53:00 <Halcyon> It doesn't belong in business... most of the time
20:53:33 <Halcyon> The thing is, I'm not a civilian. So it's hard for me not to tell people to "get fucked" if they piss me off enough
20:53:40 <Halcyon> You can't really do that in retail etc...
20:53:54 * brayden reads scrollback
20:53:55 <brayden> yeah I see
20:54:17 <brayden> the GS/WebNX thing is kinda sad
20:54:19 <Halcyon> Mainly because telling my bosses that they are fuckwits won't get me fired :P
20:54:34 <brayden> WHT thread filled with screaming about how they're going to leave when they get their data back blahblah
20:54:44 <brayden> I mean it's a cheap provider, reinvest that money into backups geez louise
20:55:05 <Halcyon> Provider or no provider, you as an individual customer are responsible for your own shit
20:55:08 <Halcyon> It's not that hard

20:56:07 <brayden> it's a sad day when a total amateur funding their infra out of their pay cheque has working backups but these dudes with apparently irreplaceable data and paying customers don't
20:56:17 <T3sl4> "it's not that hard" is the last thing i'd have expected Halcyon to say
20:56:27 <Halcyon> Time and a place T3sl4 :P
20:56:41 <Halcyon> I have little sympathy for incompetance
20:56:50 <Halcyon> "Not knowing" is not an excuse in my book
20:57:11 <Ysjoelfir> you can always learn
20:57:16 <Halcyon> Nah fuck that
20:57:27 <brayden> blaming other people seems like an easier solution
20:57:33 <Ysjoelfir> not you, the "not knowing" person I mean :D
20:57:43 <Halcyon> If I sign up to something, I know
20:57:48 <Halcyon> I make it my job to know
20:58:05 <Ysjoelfir> exactly what I meant. ;)
20:58:25 <Halcyon> brayden, there is so much of that crap that goes on. It shits me.
20:58:27 <gnif> it's hard to get managers to understand that you need an extra server just in case... let alone anything else like "backups"
20:58:35 <gnif> tight asses
20:58:47 <Halcyon> gnif, most clients don't realise until the shit hits the fan and you say "told you so"
20:58:51 <brayden> Halcyon, oh yeah my previous job was a total clown show
20:58:55 <brayden> nobody could take responsibility for anything
20:58:56 <Halcyon> This is why I always get everything in writing.
20:59:50 <Halcyon> We have a saying at work: CARE Principal... Cover Arse, Retain Employment
20:59:55 <gnif> indeed, after which they just repeat their dumbass mistakes
21:00:04 <gnif> https://i.redd.it/x49iatolvm761.jpg
21:00:19 <Halcyon> Accurate
21:00:25 <Halcyon> I am going to print that and take it to work :P
21:01:00 <gnif> well I am off, gnight all
21:01:06 <brayden> wow early
21:01:07 <brayden> goodnight
21:01:13 <Halcyon> Night matey

21:02:00 <Halcyon> I'm going to go have dinner and sit on the couch
21:02:01 <Halcyon> Laters
21:03:37 <Ysjoelfir> "couch". what is that? Is that something related to a PC chair?
21:05:28 <brayden> no room for furniture in this place
21:05:49 <brayden> gotta get more storage racks for computer shit

23:48:40 <therealazzurro> wow just received the BM786 along with some new probemaster 8017S leads. is anyone aware of that probemaster changed the material of the leads in any way?
23:48:53 <K> pics ?
23:49:38 <therealazzurro> i've got old 8017S ones and they seem more flexible and the silicone is more of the a little bit sticky type and the new probemaster leads are absolutely non-sticky and don't really feel like silicone
23:50:06 <therealazzurro> you won't really see anything on a picture, they look the same. the feeling of the material is different
23:50:13 <therealazzurro> and the old ones seem more flexible
23:50:29 <K> hm
