00:26:53 <rust_collector> that looks good, but I think I have to not read it, because I seem to have a very limited brain, and I do not want it to go out of ancient linear mode, lol
00:28:59 <Kuschelpony> hihi
00:29:11 <Kuschelpony> well i do read it in a special mixed mode
00:30:03 <Kuschelpony> its at the same time enjoying to learn more from someone who has written exceptionally well and clear, but also in a kind of i want to stuff my brain and forget these months like other people would go to a bar and drink alcohol
00:30:28 <Kuschelpony> its just that i dont want to kill my brain with alcohol but instead fill it with more knowledge

00:33:24 <rust_collector> electrohead !! wth is the bot doing?
00:34:06 <electrohead> what?
00:34:49 <rust_collector> I get notifications for stuff no one posted? which is ok, but I could at least get a link?
00:38:40 <electrohead> oh oh, I see what you're saying
00:38:47 <electrohead> how many users do you have on your ignore list?
00:38:50 <electrohead> lol
00:39:10 <rust_collector> 62?
00:39:46 <rust_collector> arrgh, ok, where is that list...
00:40:39 <rust_collector> heh, that was a pretty random list. interesting
00:41:20 <electrohead> hahaha

00:51:23 <Lord_of_nothing> Wennst mal etwas traditionelles aus unseren Land suchst.
00:51:30 <Lord_of_nothing> Wie gehts dir?
00:54:27 <Kuschelpony> uff, ich möchte nichts ins Detail gehen, da glaube ich rutschei ch gerade massiv in eine persönliche Krise wo schon vor dem C die Wurzeln waren aberdie letzten Monate mir den Rest des Antriebs genommen haben
00:55:00 <Kuschelpony> nothing to discuss here
00:55:45 <Kuschelpony> im just trying to be helpful for people who have questions and get a tiny bit of satisfaction for beeing not completely useless and unwanted

01:11:17 <electrohead> Kuschelpony: that's nice of you :)
01:11:53 <Kuschelpony> its my view of the world
01:12:23 <Kuschelpony> perhaps not exactly the thing of Karma or how these are called, but a kind of i weant to give all i can in the hope i could also get some help with my issues
01:14:03 <electrohead> yeah I'm the same way, unless someone is a complete asshole to me, then I feel different
01:16:00 <Kuschelpony> the problem is that the majority of people too easily label someone as "not worth spending any more energy" or "creepy"
01:17:41 <Kuschelpony> i had used the analogy elsewhere in another IRC recently, where i feel like i am a colorful butterfly that disturbs the social expectations of a place that is supposed to be in smooth shades of mute colors
01:46:18 <Lord_of_nothing> ja das c thema geht mir auch am arsch
01:47:43 <Kuschelpony> es hat mir nur die letzten 5% gekillt, der Rest mangelte schon vorher
01:47:54 <Lord_of_nothing> ich darf nur nach slowenien mit einen test
01:48:07 <Kuschelpony> warte auf impfung...
01:48:42 <Lord_of_nothing> omg du wirst doch nicht etwas spriten lassen das die sich letztes jahr aus den arsch gezogen haben?
01:48:58 <Kuschelpony> ich warte jeden Tag darauf daß ic hes endlich kann
01:49:08 <Lord_of_nothing> das ist krank
01:50:03 <Kuschelpony> das ist deine meinung die ich nicht angreifen will, ich sage nur daß meine persönliche Entscheidung 99,99% dahin geht daß ich das Vertrauen habe daß der impfstoff bei weitem sicherer ist als alles was mir sonst passieren könnte
01:50:17 <Kuschelpony> sorry for these who dont understand german language:
01:50:34 <Lord_of_nothing> da kann man gleich selbst mord begehen da spart man sich das leiden
01:50:56 <Kuschelpony> i wanted to say that i respect any opinion related to the vaccination, but my personal opinion is 99,99% sure that the risks of the vaccination are far lower than wahts possible without
01:52:01 <Lord_of_nothing> with a caccine who is just 1year before out of the lab and its the first mass test...
01:52:30 <Lord_of_nothing> and the dont know if it make you imune
01:52:47 <rust_collector> as long as it does not make you ill, that is ok
01:52:58 <Lord_of_nothing> well that is what nobody know
01:53:32 <Lord_of_nothing> so would you drink a fluid who not help in anthikn and potentially can kill you?
01:54:09 <rust_collector> no, but I would one that probably would help, even if something bad could happen
01:55:09 <Lord_of_nothing> probably is a good therm
01:55:16 <Kuschelpony> as said i leave you to your opinion and dont fight it
01:55:41 <Lord_of_nothing> when someone will do a very stupid think i want try to prevent it

02:03:53 <Ysjoelfir> Ich waere froh, wenn ich endlich mal nen Termin bekommen wuerde...
02:05:10 <Ysjoelfir> also rust_collector, T3sl4 and I think Kuschelpony were also commenting on the coffee mill before? We (Mr. Gworg and I) took our time to disassemble and clean the thing. It already looks pretty nice. And I think I will keep the original paint, it still is mostly in decent shape.
02:05:44 <rust_collector> ok, good, it is only original once
02:05:44 <Ysjoelfir> https://snipboard.io/jsoOai.jpg
02:06:56 <rust_collector> yeah. worst case, you could always make it pretty later. but that looks usable
02:07:41 <Ysjoelfir> I agree, rusty. So, now I only need 3 new bearings and probably turn a new.... push thingy that dictates the grinding level. basically a mushroom shaped thing from steel, in the picture above the two motor housing parts, pretty much inthe middle of the pic. it is a good bit worn out
02:08:19 <Kuschelpony> hmm i missed the coffe mill but i also have to leave for an hour now, when i am back please ask again unanswered questions
02:08:58 Quit: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) Connection closed
02:09:07 <Ysjoelfir> enjoy your... ok, bye :D
02:09:42 <electrohead> EEVBot: give coffee to Ysjoelfir
02:09:42 <rust_collector> ok. you fix! thinking about the "stickers" How would it work, to use one of those handheld scanners, that you slide across a document? That should work on cylinders too, and give you a good base image on the confuser?
02:09:43 * EEVBot hooks Ysjoelfir up to a coffee IV
02:13:14 <Ysjoelfir> hmm... that could indeed be worth a try, rusty.
02:13:16 <rust_collector> ok, now he stopped completely...
02:13:59 <Ysjoelfir> electrohead: Thanks, but I hate coffee xD though... I could need some energy right now. I am awake now for.... erm.... 35:30h
02:15:16 <rust_collector> I have some 18650s you can insert, if you want?
02:16:11 <rust_collector> they might be small, but they say they have a lot of energy
02:17:15 <rust_collector> otoh, you would have to stay awake for a week before they got there... that could be a problem
02:19:53 <electrohead> Ysjoelfir: I know you do, that's why I said that :p
02:23:36 <Ysjoelfir> maybe rusty, yes :P also, thanks mr head :P

02:31:45 <Ysjoelfir> rust_collector, do you have experiences with china bearings? I tend to get a few extra when I need stuff like that so that I have it on hand the next time.. but thats only feasible if I go for the 8€ for 10 bearings from china, instead of the 5€ for one bearing from germanistan
02:32:54 <rust_collector> well, as usual, it is not the china that is the problem, it is what sort of chinesium they are made out of. and you never know....
02:33:25 <rust_collector> some are great, some are incredible, and some are not really bearings at all
02:33:31 <Ysjoelfir> lol
02:33:58 <Ysjoelfir> well, can't be worse than having three bearings with each having at least 10 locking positions, right?
02:33:59 <rust_collector> be glad you can get proper bearing for just 5

02:34:23 <Ysjoelfir> well... I am talking about 629ZZ, not some giant ones
02:34:57 <rust_collector> still. bearings are not cheap up here. unless you buy them by the pallet
02:35:17 <Ysjoelfir> ok? is it that bad?
02:35:24 <rust_collector> yep, it is
02:35:31 <Ysjoelfir> hm.
02:36:18 <rust_collector> but... otoh, in the case of that grrrrinder.... that is 3 bearings, and then it will probably work until the insulation falls out, or 50 more years...
02:36:50 <Ysjoelfir> actually.. it is 3 bearings, one bushing and 2 sliding felt pad thingies
02:37:27 <rust_collector> well... then just buy some chinese chewing gum based lump-bearings
02:38:38 <Ysjoelfir> xD
02:38:45 <Ysjoelfir> oh, and I found several datecodes
02:39:05 <Ysjoelfir> latest one was may 1954
02:39:05 <rust_collector> On one side, I don't think they will run for long periods, so they will probably not overheat any time soon. it is just that you never know what you get, before you get them, and buying 2 sets, just to wreck one, to check if they have actual metal in them...
02:39:12 <rust_collector> nice
02:40:05 <rust_collector> I guess it deserves a cleaning and a few bearings
02:40:08 <Ysjoelfir> nah, it will run barely at all. I won't use it much I think, its more of a novelty and a nice fun project.
02:40:26 <Ysjoelfir> right? I think I will go with good quality ones, just because it deserves it
02:40:49 <rust_collector> how are the brushes and commutator looking?
02:41:12 <Ysjoelfir> oh, and I need a puller to get them off from the shaft. I only have biger ones for pulleys.
02:41:32 <Ysjoelfir> broshes are pretty much done, I try to find replacements. commutators are still fine
02:42:15 <rust_collector> can you get by with angle grinder brushes, and just filing them to fit, maybe?
02:45:46 <rust_collector> you should leave a note inside that thing, replaced bearings after 70 years, and made a thingie, name and date. That could be fun to find in some decades, if it still exists
02:46:05 <Lemon> hey freunds
02:46:14 <Lemon> I just thought about something that could greatly help me
02:46:14 <rust_collector> hey you....person
02:46:28 <Lemon> what is the "best" (in a sense, educatively speaking) electronic simulator ?
02:46:34 <Lemon> I have LTspice but its not too easy to use
02:46:41 <rust_collector> breadboard?
02:47:28 <Ysjoelfir> that could work, rusty. those broshes are not big, so I can probably make something fit :) Also, I just love the note Idea, will definitely do that!
02:47:48 <Lemon> yeah well the thing is, it would help me to play with things I dont have physically :>
02:47:49 <rust_collector> I think any of the computer ones have a pretty steep learning curve?
02:48:00 <Lemon> I remember seeing one where you could see current flowing etc
02:48:02 <Lemon> it was super nice
02:48:16 <rust_collector> I think ltspice will do that
02:48:43 <Lemon> I mean it was dynamic on screen
02:48:47 <rust_collector> yes
02:48:51 <Lemon> and overall it felt super easy
02:49:02 <Lemon> I have ltspice 7
02:49:43 <Lemon> ha maybe it was everycircuit
02:49:47 <Lemon> ok I will eat and see
02:49:49 <Lemon> brb guys

02:50:23 <EEVBot> [Title] - Youtube: LTSpice Tutorial - EP1 Getting started
02:51:08 <Ysjoelfir> is FAG a good bearing company?
02:51:13 <rust_collector> yes
02:51:35 <rust_collector> fag, skf, that american one...
02:51:55 <Ysjoelfir> good. than I take 2 faggots and one SKF (which was the only one I knew before being good :P )
02:52:50 <rust_collector> why can't I remember the american one...
02:53:20 <rust_collector> timken
02:53:32 <rust_collector> uhm... nsk should be good
02:54:44 <rust_collector> eeeh, there is a german one too schaeff...something
02:55:30 * Ysjoelfir tries to remember those names :D
02:55:43 <rust_collector> schaeffler
02:55:55 <rust_collector> probably not the cheapest
02:56:35 <Ysjoelfir> I wonder... is there any downsides to using a.... "shielded"? bearing over an open one in that application? I could immagine having some metal preventing coffee dust from entering the balls path can't be the worst idea?
02:57:18 <rust_collector> shielded will be fine, but don't use a rubber sealed one, as the motor will spin too fast, and melt the seal
02:57:19 <Ysjoelfir> like, that kind https://www.ebay.de/itm/133465813046?hash=item1f132eb036:g:rtkAAOSwjTBfDsWa
02:57:20 <EEVBot> [Title] - ** 1x SKF - Rillenkugellager 629-2Z/C3 ....... 9x26x8mm ....... **NEU** | eBay
02:58:10 <rust_collector> yes, z or zz will be fine, but stay away from rs or 2rs, on fast things. but they will be fine on lower speed things
02:58:28 <Ysjoelfir> ok :)
03:01:15 <rust_collector> ok, that is all I know about bearings, that I remember right now. I have not had much to do with them in many years
03:01:33 <Ysjoelfir> you just prefer to use a bushing.
03:02:00 <rust_collector> nah, jsut stuff it full of grease, and you dont't need bearings
03:02:35 <Ysjoelfir> hehe
03:04:14 <rust_collector> hmm, talking about thingies... I took apart the egr valve on the pug yesterday...
03:04:32 <Ysjoelfir> I did not now your dogs had valves
03:04:41 <DHess_US> https://www.rouming.cz/upload/Vysrat_s_elektrodebilama.jpg
03:05:17 <rust_collector> and it has a screw drive, so it turns about a quarter turn... and uses an electric motor, and some hall sensor to figure out how open it is...
03:05:36 <Ysjoelfir> that sounds way more complicated than it needs to be
03:06:53 <rust_collector> but the magnet wheel is on the screw axle, and there is a clockspring, between that, and the lid... it need half a turn of preload, and the motor connects to the screw with a "fork"
03:07:07 <rust_collector> that was interesting to put back together
03:07:11 <Ysjoelfir> ew oO
03:07:19 <Ysjoelfir> I can immagine that beind much much fun
03:08:16 <rust_collector> but, the best part, is that the magnet wheel needs to be pushed further onto the axle than you can press the motor down...or it will rub on stuff, and bind...
03:08:33 <rust_collector> I wonder how they assemble these in the factory
03:09:12 <Ysjoelfir> uuuuuuh..... magic?
03:09:22 <rust_collector> that could work, I guess
03:11:14 <rust_collector> I will try that next time, thanks
03:11:23 <Ysjoelfir> youre welcome
03:34:34 <Lemon> ok seems I was using ltspice the wrong way
03:34:36 <Lemon> thanks rusty
03:41:48 <rust_collector> I have no idea, lol. but I think that guy seems to have an idea about how to use it
03:42:46 <rust_collector> Oooh, I put a new battery in my big meter, very fancy to not have the battery warning all the time
03:44:16 <rust_collector> so, if that is 30 videos of 15 minutes or so... I guess lemon is busy today
03:44:32 <Lemon> well im trying to find a ref102 model
03:44:54 <rust_collector> do you have a ref 102?
03:45:13 <Lemon> not at hand no
03:45:21 <Lemon> but I want to redo the example, just to test it
03:45:24 <Lemon> and see how it works
03:45:29 <Lemon> to see if I understood
03:46:41 <hsn> oui
03:46:58 <hsn> Ampera,
03:47:06 <hsn> do u get github of EEVBot ?
03:48:02 <Ampera> what
03:49:42 <rust_collector> hsn ^
03:49:50 <rust_collector> wake up!
03:49:59 <hsn> yes up wake i am
03:50:09 <hsn> Ampera, do u have github link of EEVBot ?
03:50:29 <Ampera> no
03:50:36 <Ampera> it's not on github
03:50:42 <hsn> pornhub ?
03:51:00 <hsn> eevhub ?
03:51:37 <Ampera> why are you like this

03:53:25 <hsn> EEVBot, kill ampera
03:53:26 <EEVBot> hsn: nega-tory, ghost rider!
03:53:43 <rust_collector> but if you want to see the bot files, maybe you shoudl ask the guy who has anything to do with it?
03:54:46 <rust_collector> I think I will see how that tip120 will work in hmmhmm blarrblah mmmnmhmmmmmmm
03:55:30 <hsn> rust_collector, i saw earlier ampera discussing with electrohead about it .. i think electrohead was open to the contribution idea and i ask ampera if he got it .. hrmm
03:55:44 <rust_collector> yes, stop that
03:55:55 <hsn> stop what
03:55:59 <rust_collector> that
03:56:05 <hsn> that, stop!
03:56:09 <rust_collector> thinking
03:56:15 <rust_collector> it is eeew
03:56:26 <hsn> who said im thinking.. :D
03:56:35 <hsn> i said ? .. well .. its a lie ..
03:56:44 <hsn> me never thinks
03:56:49 <rust_collector> oh, ok then
03:57:24 <hsn> i ve 1061$ in my account
03:57:27 <electrohead> o/
03:57:28 <hsn> should i worry ?
03:57:31 <rust_collector> yes
03:57:39 <hsn> who knows when is my next salary
03:57:44 <rust_collector> it has a meaning, probably
03:57:44 <hsn> ola electrola
03:57:53 <electrohead> by tomorrow, the source code will be on github
03:57:58 <electrohead> err, tomorrow at the latest
03:58:13 <electrohead> today is my first sunday off in almost three months, so I'm mainly relaxing today
03:58:20 <hsn> r u injecting some code to hack us ^(._.)^
03:58:23 <electrohead> but, I'll probably just get it done, then
03:58:29 <electrohead> I can if you want me to :P
03:58:30 <rust_collector> upload it to pornhub, as an image
03:58:31 <electrohead> lol
03:58:41 <hsn> rust_collector, not bad idea .. not bad
03:58:52 <hsn> EEVBot, tea rust_collector
03:58:52 <EEVBot> hsn: nega-tory, ghost rider!
03:58:56 <hsn> EEVBot, help

04:00:55 <hsn> EEVBot, slap his_ass_and_moans_powered_by_pornhub
04:00:55 * EEVBot viciously slaps his_ass_and_moans_powered_by_pornhub with an enormous smelly trout
04:01:13 <hsn> yes .. that .. take screenshot
04:01:27 <hsn> rust_collector, stop tea bagging
04:01:41 <rust_collector> nah, it is a nice pic
04:02:23 <Lemon> hmmm I remembered that I still have my fathers tek th710a, I rarely use it because I have bench stuff and it got no battery
04:02:31 <Lemon> but if I can find a battery its a super nice thing
04:02:36 <rust_collector> https://bit.ly/2RBE4jo
04:02:37 <EEVBot> [Title] - Bitly
04:02:42 <Lemon> its the lower model but still nice
04:04:51 <hsn> electrohead, do u see what rusty doing ?
04:05:15 <hsn> he is doing bitly things to hide titles
04:05:16 <hsn> :D
04:10:27 <electrohead> I do :D
04:10:36 <electrohead> I shall do something special just for that
04:10:39 <electrohead> ;P
04:10:50 <electrohead> so ok, let me eat really quick, then I'll work on uploading the source to github
04:10:51 <electrohead> \o/
04:10:59 <electrohead> I'll just get 'er done.
04:20:18 <Lemon> hmm where can I find a lmt317 in ltspice ?
04:20:27 <Lemon> I cant find "regulators" or something similar
04:20:59 <rust_collector> try lm, and not lmt?
04:21:14 <Lemon> yeah well seems theres no search bar
04:21:35 <Lemon> ha wait yes there is
04:21:38 <Lemon> but no lm317
04:22:52 <rust_collector> I am pretty sure I have seen it in there somewhere
04:25:45 <electrohead> maybe try just 317?
04:27:01 <Lemon> I tried yeah
04:28:05 <Lemon> thats weird, as its supposed to be a common thing
04:28:15 <hsn> Lemon,
04:28:35 <T3sl4> they use all their LT equivalents if possible
04:28:39 <T3sl4> free advertising, y'know
04:29:15 <hsn> i think u download it
04:30:22 <Lemon> ok then what is the equivalent name ?
04:30:26 <Lemon> its really confusing me
04:31:06 <T3sl4> lt317 innit?
04:33:14 <Lemon> well theres a lm3308
04:33:17 <Lemon> lm308
04:33:41 <Lemon> nah its an opamp
04:35:21 <hsn> am trying to include TI lm317 pspice .. i always forgot how to .. :D
04:35:38 <T3sl4> my ancient copy of ltspice has LT317A under PowerProducts
04:38:13 <hsn> https://www.ieee.li/pdf/viewgraphs/ltspice_creating_a_schematic_symbol.pdf
04:38:31 <hsn> it has out_0 out_1
04:38:33 <hsn> idk why
04:38:45 <hsn> and also .. its LM317 Unencrypted PSpice Transient Model

04:38:56 <hsn> idk what is "transient model" ...
04:39:17 <T3sl4> transient is the analysis you'll most likely be using??
04:40:05 <hsn> doesnt it work with ac analysis ?
04:40:12 <hsn> or dc sweep ?
04:40:43 <hsn> rnt both of these ^ multiple points of transients ?
04:41:19 <T3sl4> tran starts with dc op
04:41:31 <T3sl4> i think anything that runs in tran will ac too
04:41:37 <T3sl4> the opposite may not be true
04:41:55 <hsn> huh ?
04:42:11 <hsn> did u ever see "ac analysis model" for example ?
04:42:17 <T3sl4> ya

05:06:44 <hsn> mean u what
05:06:45 <T3sl4> dividing by a difference of voltages too
05:06:57 <T3sl4> oh, not to mention the if()
05:06:59 <T3sl4> fuck me
05:07:10 <T3sl4> the E_U1_ABM's
05:08:03 <hsn> what r u talking about .. the subskt ?
05:09:04 <T3sl4> and the COMPHYS is if-based too? ugh
05:10:06 <hsn> At ComPhys Lab, we develop computer models of language behaviour to investigate the juncture of grammatical competence
05:10:14 <hsn> u think i understand hah ?
05:10:27 <Ysjoelfir> awwwwwwwwwww xD
05:10:38 <hsn> i cant even find the if condition .
05:11:03 <hsn> IF(V(U1_UVLO_OK)> 0.6, {VREF}, 0)
05:11:13 <hsn> nice :D
05:11:24 <hsn> it works no ? :D
05:11:30 <T3sl4> no idea what TTRN is, a global param i guess
05:11:32 <hsn> not for ur type of simulations .. :D
05:11:51 <hsn> .PARAM psrr=7.9432e-4 uvlo=0 ilim=2.2 pole=15k rinp=1e7 zero=100e6 rout=0.4m

05:11:58 <hsn> ttrn=1e-4 ?
05:13:16 <hsn> so ee-4 is 0.018
05:13:46 <T3sl4> oh yeah, they put the params at the end
05:13:57 <T3sl4> i misread that as a PARAMS: to a model
05:14:27 <hsn> anyway .. if u say they are bad .. and making joke about them .. which i feel the case
05:14:52 <hsn> then i trust my self that vout_1 is not connected .. they probably bring it from another model and didnt remove it .. lazy ppl
05:16:07 <T3sl4> i wonder if they require as many model pins as symbol pins, so they put in dummys
05:17:24 <T3sl4> hsn: you can't take the derivative of if()
05:17:33 <T3sl4> yet spice uses derivatives to solve for the next timestep
05:17:38 <T3sl4> it's a bastard function
05:18:47 <hsn> T3sl4, the derivative is of if() is : (current if() + previous if()) / 2
05:19:07 <hsn> easy .. piece of cake ... gimme nobel prize
05:19:16 * T3sl4 reduces hsn's timestep towards 0

05:39:16 <Ysjoelfir> the mak?
05:41:40 <Lemon> yeah
05:42:28 <Lemon> 5 by 20mm looks super small for mains
05:43:34 <Kuschelpony> these small fuses are usually rated to break upto 250V AC but only limited shortcircuit currents
05:43:53 <Kuschelpony> if you have serious shortcircuit currents look for these in ceramic tubes
05:43:57 <rust_collector> I guess sand filled ones would be ok-er?

05:44:22 <Lemon> like those ?
05:44:38 <Kuschelpony> hmm, i have not seen sand filled glass fuses the past decades, only sand filled ceramic ones
05:45:07 <Kuschelpony> thats the ones which are safe unless you put them directly at the mains distribution panel
05:46:02 <Lemon> its to be used with a power analyzer fixture, that goes between appliance and outlet
05:48:27 <Kuschelpony> im not sure... in that place i would already consider a circuit breaker that is conventiently reset
05:48:48 <Kuschelpony> something like an ABB S201 10A or 16A can be had already for about 5€
05:49:27 <Lemon> ha well, it will never fit
05:50:43 <Kuschelpony> sorry
05:51:18 <rust_collector> just build the thing bigger?
05:51:40 <Lemon> well I want to fit it in a old CPL thingie
05:51:47 <Lemon> which would be perfectly sized
05:51:54 <Lemon> and on top of that theres already male/female outlet
05:52:30 <Kuschelpony> i think i betetr stop here before giving too unhelpful opinions
05:53:59 <Lemon> and I mean, appliance is protected, and mains too
05:54:07 <Lemon> but I lack knowledge in that area
06:00:13 <rust_collector> Kuschelpony it is fine, you give us suggestions that are helpful. and at least I like having you around here.
06:02:22 <Lemon> hmm I found a 8a 250v here
06:02:33 <Lemon> and holders
06:17:32 <Lemon> technicallly with this fuse
06:17:43 <Lemon> I can have an appliance running up to 2kw ?
06:18:53 <Kuschelpony> if it has no significant inrush and an power factor of 1 then yes
06:18:59 <Kuschelpony> better you say 2kVA
06:19:25 <Lemon> ok !
06:19:34 <Lemon> so for example, I guess I couildnt connect a microwave oven
06:19:38 <Lemon> it probably use more, no ?

06:19:44 <EEVBot> [Title] - Youtube: Home Office # 117 feat. @Rin99er
06:24:40 <Kuschelpony> maybe yes... they ran the transformer badly into saturation that it draws lots of magnetization curtrent upto the limit of a 10 or even 16a fuse
06:25:14 * Ysjoelfir humms
06:26:56 <rust_collector> hummus
06:26:59 <rust_collector> ?
06:27:11 <Ysjoelfir> uuuh, nice. I like that stuff
06:28:17 <rust_collector> ok, I am not sure if I have tried that
06:28:33 <Lemon> so Ysjoelfir, what do you think I should use ? those 5 by 20mm ceramic fuses are ok ? :>
06:29:57 <rust_collector> uhm, ok, so... I had this idea, then I tried something, but... I don't know.
06:30:01 <rust_collector> https://snipboard.io/bop3GN.jpg
06:30:27 <hsn> https://www.instagram.com/tv/COiZVJ8gAxi/
06:30:40 <Lemon> oooff
06:30:47 <Ysjoelfir> for that use case... probably yes, Lemon
06:30:47 <hsn> Idk about this story of palastine these days ..
06:31:00 <hsn> But the first guy logic is funny in above video
06:31:06 <Lemon> so I should take at high amp rated fuse I guess ?
06:31:14 <Lemon> if I want to monitor a microwave oven, or a boiler
06:31:19 <hsn> If i dont steal it someone else will steal it ... So i steal it .. lol
06:31:22 <Lemon> 8 amp isnt enough I guess
06:32:15 <rust_collector> I think few microwaves are over 1000W, the water heater, or a kettle is probably worse
06:33:11 <Lemon> yeah ok so maybe a 250v 12 or 16a
06:33:24 <rust_collector> hsn it has been a while since you saw that guy with the sunglasses?
06:33:40 <hsn> rust_collector: who sunglasses guy

06:34:26 <hsn> Hoh i didnt knew
06:34:46 <hsn> And now i understand what u was doing with gimp
06:34:53 <hsn> Lol
06:35:08 <hsn> I opened it .. and thought its original image u r posting
06:35:09 <rust_collector> It was worth those 14 hours
06:35:18 <hsn> Yeah
06:35:23 <hsn> Totally
06:35:33 <Lemon> hmm I know in france we have 16 and 32a outlets
06:35:35 <hsn> He is sun glasses tea bagging
06:35:36 <Lemon> but idk about mine
06:35:49 <hsn> Lemon: its 16a i think
06:35:50 <Lemon> iff I put, lets say a 20a fuse, and plug it in a 16a outlet
06:36:13 <Lemon> lets say theres a problem, the fuse wont melt, so the circuit board or whatever is it called in english will break, right ?
06:36:28 <Kuschelpony> approximately right
06:36:33 <hsn> If its installed correctly yes
06:36:42 <Lemon> ok
06:36:47 <Kuschelpony> but you cant be sure which is faster, or that both switch off
06:36:52 <hsn> The idea is to prevent fire in wires and outlets i guess .. right?
06:37:00 <Kuschelpony> right!
06:37:11 <Lemon> I know the electrical installation is fine, as its my father who did it (electronic engeneer) but for my own fixture, I'll have to build it correctly
06:37:19 <electrohead> anyone in here use ssh keys with github, and know how to push changes?
06:37:31 <Lemon> so I should put a fuse rated less than the outlet ?
06:37:36 <hsn> The mcb trips faster with different catagories .. i think
06:37:38 <Kuschelpony> so outlet and wires should be safe from the distrubutuion board fuse, appliances that are built for much lower currents should have their own small fuse
06:37:55 <Lemon> yes theres also the fuse in the appliance itself
06:38:10 <Kuschelpony> if you want to have your local fuse to reliably blow faster you shoul have a rating of 10a or less
06:38:21 <Kuschelpony> if the main breaker is 16a
06:38:58 <Lemon> hmmm ok
06:39:16 <Lemon> I just want to be sure I can measure any appliances, like a microwave, a boiler, a tv... etc
06:39:25 <Lemon> on hand I have a 8a 250v fuse
06:39:37 <Lemon> but I can order a bigger one
06:40:13 <Kuschelpony> i would say you start with that one and see if it goes well with most appliances
06:40:25 <hsn> https://studyelectrical.com/2014/07/miniature-circuit-breakers-mcb-types-characteristic-curves.html
06:40:26 <hsn> Look at the table

06:40:27 <Kuschelpony> its at least on the safe side
06:41:03 <Kuschelpony> i do know the tables of the european types like B C and K halfway in brain
06:41:40 <hsn> So which one slowest Kuschelpony
06:42:06 <Kuschelpony> depends on what you mean with "slow"
06:42:09 <Lemon> ok I see thanks
06:42:10 <electrohead> oh, shit, ok I got it, nevermind :D
06:42:33 <hsn> electrohead: woah didnt see that
06:42:35 <Lemon> about clearance in my little fixture, because stuff will be tight inside
06:42:42 <Kuschelpony> i think you mean which is least likely to trip on a short peak and thats the K type, but not because its been timely slow but because its designed for the highest peak rating
06:42:44 <Lemon> its not too important, as its "low" voltage ?
06:43:03 Quit: EEVBot ([email protected]) Quit: Over and out
06:43:25 <hsn> Kuschelpony: and fastest is z?
06:43:31 <Kuschelpony> second is C for about 5 to 8 times peak current and most sensitive is B with 3 to 5 times peak current
06:43:54 <Kuschelpony> all are the same kind of fast for short peaks, they differ on how high a peak is allowed
06:44:15 <Kuschelpony> z is special for control circuits where you have not much overcurrent available from the power supply
06:44:32 <Kuschelpony> not very different is a but thats even less coommon
06:45:09 <hsn> Kuschelpony: i had dc fuse for one design i had .. a PTC. . i thought it protect my npn transistors outputs
06:45:20 <Kuschelpony> if you have a dead short all of them will trip together when connected in series, none faster, but if you have a peak current of lets say 10 times then only B and C wil ltrip for going above their ratings while K stays
06:45:39 <Kuschelpony> ah a PTC is purely thermal so you can say fast or slow very right
06:46:01 <hsn> The bjt thing blows in few very short time .. and that thing never worked
06:46:29 <Kuschelpony> hmm, if i can afford i keep transistors just so oversized that an fast fuse can protect them, also makes cooling easier
06:47:12 <hsn> Kuschelpony: it was 14 output ..
06:47:48 <Kuschelpony> ok... a bit bigger...
06:47:50 <hsn> And i need ~100mA .. they can handle 500mA .. each .. ic was
06:48:05 <hsn> Ulnq2003
06:48:26 <Kuschelpony> hmm
06:48:34 <T3sl4> when halcyon comes back: https://i.imgur.com/vCA64RE.jpg
06:48:40 <Kuschelpony> i calculate tomorrow more, should have sleeping since two hours
06:48:51 <hsn> But a short circuit kills them before the ptc starts to think to start heating
06:48:51 * T3sl4 gives Kuschelpony a carrot
06:49:18 <Ysjoelfir> T3sl4, when Halcyon comes back he has to explain this to me first https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hk8A1ICdvA5K-QPk40taGsAmKl8CLKWL/view?usp=sharing

06:49:29 * hsn gives Ysjoelfir a kurwat
06:49:48 <T3sl4> good question
06:50:01 <T3sl4> oh no, the carrot knocked them offline
06:50:45 <hsn> Kurwat = kraut?
06:51:14 <hsn> Ysjoelfir: u ve somthing kurwaty on ur website right?
06:51:34 <rust_collector> he is not really polish
06:52:28 <Ysjoelfir> that is pretty much corect, yes
06:52:29 <Ysjoelfir> I think
06:52:33 <hsn> What's this "cdn ampera project" i see in lots of websites link
06:52:48 <Ampera> what
06:52:53 <rust_collector> click it and see?
06:53:03 <hsn> https://amp-reddit-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/amp.reddit.com
06:53:08 <rust_collector> they are trying to clone an Ampera in canada
06:53:11 <hsn> Cdn.ampproject
06:53:42 <Ampera> why are you like this
06:53:45 <hsn> https://www.monsterinsights.com/docs/why-am-i-seeing-a-lot-of-amp-traffic-from-cdn-ampproject-org/
06:54:11 <hsn> There are lots of Ampera projects out there
06:54:27 <T3sl4> Ysjoelfir: https://i.imgur.com/ZFw5bGj.png
06:55:04 <Ysjoelfir> kurwa!
06:55:15 <Ysjoelfir> cyka blyat!
06:59:44 <Lemon> so for the mak fixture Ysjoelfir, is clearance between connectors a big issue ?
06:59:50 <Lemon> because it will be quite the tight fit !
07:00:25 <rust_collector> stick something in between?
07:01:17 <Lemon> well I will use heatshrink and hotglue to secure everything, maybe a piece of plastic or something is enough ?
07:01:27 <rust_collector> maybe
07:01:37 <Lemon> air by itself is a good insulator no, 1.5-3kv per cm if im right ?
07:01:43 <Lemon> I think I saw that somewhere
07:01:50 <T3sl4> mm innit?
07:03:10 <coppice_> Lemon: air is a very variable insulator. dry air is 3kV per mm, but damp air can be pretty bad
07:03:49 <Lemon> ok ! well anyway air is as a bonus insulator here Im not counting on it
07:03:59 <Lemon> I guess there will be around 1cm between each contacts
07:04:06 <Lemon> but they will be insulated by whatever
07:04:12 <Lemon> hot glue insulate well ? im curious
07:04:47 <T3sl4> i guess
07:07:21 <Lemon> rhode and schwarz sells a similar fixture Im building
07:07:28 <Lemon> for the cheap sum of 260 euros
07:07:38 <rust_collector> that is not so bad?
07:08:50 <Lemon> dude thats two outlets, 4 shrouded connectors, and a fuse in a box
07:09:49 <rust_collector> so? that is not a bad price for a new one of those. I am almost sure it is also filled with hot glue
07:11:04 <Lemon> well no need as its dimensioned right, but common how much does it cost to build for them, 20 bucks ? 10 ?
07:11:08 <Lemon> thats a hugeass markup
07:11:29 <T3sl4> i mean, i can't build something like that at much of a profit
07:11:38 <rust_collector> they also have to do testing, and write papers, so someone can actually use them
07:11:51 <Lemon> yeah but you arent a big firm, having nice prices in bulk components
07:12:06 <Lemon> pfff idk about that tbh, its not a super complicated device
07:12:17 <Lemon> ofc there is some research
07:12:22 <Lemon> but surely not months of developpemen
07:12:27 <Lemon> t
07:12:35 <Lemon> up to 100 euros why not yeah
07:12:39 <Lemon> but 260 for that ? jeez
07:12:48 <rust_collector> if you want to use it in a large company, you can just forget using a shoe box with an outlet and some stuff. it has to be certified
07:13:45 <Lemon> yeah I know that
07:14:02 <Lemon> but still, theres lot of certified stuff thats way more complicated that surely cost less
07:14:41 <T3sl4> made in huge qty yes
07:14:49 <rust_collector> have you tried to buy rs stickers?
07:15:05 <Lemon> rs stickers ?
07:15:10 <rust_collector> r&s
07:15:21 <Lemon> nope, I have nothing rs
07:15:21 <T3sl4> a big co making hundreds of something still isn't much cost savings
07:15:26 <Lemon> heres an example https://fr.rs-online.com/web/p/oscilloscopes/2005279/?cm_mmc=FR-PLA-DS3A-_-google-_-PLA_FR_FR_Test_%26_Mesure_Whoop-_-(FR:Whoop!)+Oscilloscopes-_-2005279&matchtype=&aud-830986524469:pla-303080419854&gclid=CjwKCAjwkN6EBhBNEiwADVfya3Wrq3jCc0EAJWsH0pHSQ3ilpNt1s2mziaMzLK_apTFAMZs5mphayRoCCwgQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
07:15:31 <Lemon> for two of those boxes you have this
07:15:33 <T3sl4> 100k's of something, sure
07:16:02 <Lemon> I know its a quantity/making ratio
07:16:07 <Lemon> but im sure they sell a lot of those boxes
07:16:10 <Lemon> and even then
07:16:32 <Lemon> how much cost a good shrouded connector for us, customers, 10-15 euros each ?
07:16:38 <Lemon> for them its what, 1, 2 euros ?
07:16:43 <Lemon> then the type f plug
07:16:48 <Lemon> then a fuse with a holder
07:16:52 <Lemon> the box, the design, etc
07:17:03 <Lemon> paying people that took maybe what, a week or two to design it
07:17:15 <Lemon> I dont know but when I see a nice scope at 500 euros
07:17:24 <Lemon> 260 euros for that little thing seems insanely expensive
07:18:57 <rust_collector> you can probably get 4 for 1000
07:19:09 <Lemon> I hope lol

07:23:40 <Ampera> ew, GPL
07:24:09 <electrohead> can't fucking please everyone
07:24:17 <rust_collector> hmm, ok, go on
07:24:24 * electrohead pleases Ampera
07:24:26 <electrohead> lol
07:24:33 <Ampera> I doubt it
07:24:36 <electrohead> :P
07:24:36 <rust_collector> that is one. it will do
07:24:55 <electrohead> what's wrong with GPL, though?
07:25:02 * electrohead grabs the popcorn
07:25:17 <Ampera> I tend to prefer permissive licenses.
07:25:18 <Ampera> That's all
07:25:37 <T3sl4> and vice versa
07:26:12 <T3sl4> (can't please everyone fucking)
07:26:21 <electrohead> lmfao
07:26:32 <electrohead> example of a permissive license?
07:26:32 <Ampera> can't everyone please fuck?
07:26:37 <Ampera> BSD
07:26:45 <electrohead> we'd all like to fuck, lol
07:27:05 <T3sl4> EEVBot: give fuck to electrohead
07:27:05 <electrohead> and, more importantly, what's the difference between GPL and BSD?
07:27:05 * EEVBot hands fuck to electrohead
07:27:29 <Ampera> GPL is a massive license that is insanely hard to understand, the BSD licenses are simple enough anyone can understand it
07:27:43 <electrohead> well that explains a lot, lol
07:27:55 <Ampera> when I license my code I prefer to know exactly what the terms of the license are, and GPL is beyond my feeble comprehension
07:28:11 <T3sl4> or you could just
07:28:13 <T3sl4> y'know
07:28:15 <Ampera> permissive licenses also make it so most people don't have to worry about 99% of what they do with my code
07:28:16 <T3sl4> not be ignorant
07:28:39 <electrohead> I honestly don't care if some uses the code, just a mention back would be nice, that's it
07:28:44 <electrohead> and, that's all I care about, really
07:28:59 <Ampera> With the GPL, all derivatives /must/ be licensed like
07:28:59 <electrohead> I guess I should have just did the IDGAF license or something, heh
07:29:00 <Ampera> er, alike
07:29:23 * T3sl4 copies electrohead left
07:29:24 <Ampera> there's a bunch of other terms of what can or cannot be done with the software, binary/code
07:29:37 * electrohead tosses T3sl4 a guiness
07:29:55 <electrohead> alright, so y'all think I should change it to BSD, then?
07:30:07 <rust_collector> nope
07:30:11 <T3sl4> no
07:30:18 <Ampera> It's hard to say, because you are also using components license LGPL, and I'm not sure how those operate
07:30:21 <Ampera> but it's your code
07:30:23 <Ampera> do what you want
07:30:26 <T3sl4> use the license that suits you best
07:31:35 <electrohead> that's the thing, though - I honestly just don't give a shit about licensing, let alone understand why there are so many different licenses, etc etc
07:31:51 <electrohead> then again, if I don't put some sort of license there, then people will do fuck all with the code
07:32:06 <Ampera> it's a debate that probably predates software in general
07:32:06 * electrohead runs away, jerks off, and hides in a bush
07:32:19 <rust_collector> sticky bush
07:32:34 <Ampera> There's mostly opinions, and a lot of assholes trying to force people to think like they do
07:32:53 <electrohead> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
07:33:05 <T3sl4> assholes like Ampera
07:33:06 <electrohead> love that, btw, thanks Ampera lol
07:33:42 <Ampera> The principle of copyleft is noble, in that is ensures free software is and always will be free, but I make the argument that freedom through restrictions is self defeating.
07:34:18 * electrohead shoots himself in the face with a super soaker
07:34:55 <T3sl4> https://i.imgur.com/Qh1wGiv.gif

07:46:21 <electrohead> I didn't taste anything special, though
07:46:25 <rust_collector> uh-huh
07:47:07 <rust_collector> I used to chat a bit with a guy from NZ, who worked for some brewery or something
08:18:33 <Lemon> hmmm a guy on ebay sells some fluke 27/FM for 50-60 euros delivered depending on state
08:18:43 <Lemon> those were quite nice if I remember right, for military
08:18:48 <Lemon> true rms, 0.1% accuracy
08:18:59 <Lemon> and it got shrouded connectors, to go with my ac clamp

08:22:25 <Lemon> I will look for the model in the best condition
08:22:29 <Lemon> if you want to help me :>
08:22:32 <Lemon> he got tons
08:23:00 <rust_collector> will it go to a million zeros?
08:23:17 <rust_collector> I mean, will it measure everything you want it to?
08:23:49 <Lemon> ho yes pretty much, AC/DCI, AC/DCU, continuity, true rms as a bonus, shrouded connectors for that clamp etc
08:24:08 <Lemon> and 0.1% is perfect for 3.5 digits, it means its as accurate as it can display stuff
08:24:53 <rust_collector> ac and dc to a level you need? does it measure 0.0000micro-millis?
08:25:14 <rust_collector> it is probably a great meter, for more electrician style things
08:25:17 <Lemon> I think it got a uA scale which is fine
08:25:20 <Lemon> well thats what I want
08:25:35 <Lemon> I need minimum a good mA range, to use the clamp at 1-5amp range
08:25:42 <Lemon> so if it goes lower/higher as a bonus thts nicec
08:25:54 <Lemon> it will be for the times when I cant measure something at my bench, basically
08:26:08 <Lemon> so I want something reliable, sturdy with a decent accuracy for what it is

08:32:32 <Lemon> but its round
08:32:35 <Lemon> well, rounded edges
08:32:39 <Lemon> so it doesnt fit on things
08:33:14 <Lemon> 56 to 63 euros, not a big difference anyway
08:34:54 <rust_collector> not bad, for a 35 year old meter
08:35:22 <Lemon> yeah
08:35:34 <Lemon> they were pretty high end back then
08:35:38 <Lemon> and imo hold up quite well
08:35:53 <Lemon> if you want something made as well as this with those functions/accuracy
08:35:58 <Lemon> im sure its gonna be expensive

08:50:54 <Lemon> it looks beefy
08:51:07 <Lemon> and it looks watertight, not proof but resistant
08:51:20 <Lemon> as theres orings for the battery compartment for example
08:51:21 <rust_collector> yes, it says so in the specs
08:51:27 <Lemon> you can access the two big fuses
08:51:32 <Lemon> I think im sold

08:52:00 <electrohead> Yes
08:52:09 <rust_collector> why?
08:52:09 <Lemon> you press hold once, you probe something, then it reads and keeps it

08:56:03 <electrohead> I'm still confused, though, lol
08:56:08 * electrohead hugs Ysjoelfir
08:56:25 <rust_collector> embrace the confusion
08:56:33 <rust_collector> this is the time of not knowing

09:34:49 <Lemon> hope I wont pay 30-40 euros of customs, that'd suck
09:34:57 <Lemon> but at least its a nice, robust meter
09:35:08 <Lemon> accurate, that you can calibrate, with functions I want

09:44:34 <rust_collector> EEVBot jrny
09:44:40 <hsn> see ?
09:44:45 <rust_collector> yeh
09:45:05 <hsn> now decode that thing ?
09:46:02 <rust_collector> right
09:46:35 <rust_collector> I thought you already had a different king?
09:46:47 <hsn> his majesty
09:48:17 <hsn> whats with palastine isreal again
09:48:26 <hsn> too much noise about it here
09:48:43 <rust_collector> eeh, well... it depends on how you see it
09:49:07 <hsn> well .. i mean how both are seeing it ?
09:50:13 <rust_collector> well, israel is building houses and taking over land that the palestinians say is theirs. and, the palestinians do not agree, I guess.
09:53:10 <rust_collector> it is a bit complicated
09:53:45 <hsn> So they are building houses or taking
09:54:30 <rust_collector> I think they are building a lot, but I don't know what the policy is this week
09:55:03 <Ampera> it's the current chapter in a story that goes back several thousand years
09:55:29 <Ampera> they say back then one guy took some other guy's rock, and then now they have all of this
09:55:56 <hsn> Ampera: its .. human stupidity
09:56:00 <rust_collector> yeah, it is a bit messy
09:56:51 <rust_collector> but you can go to saudi, and just build a city somewhere, and see what happens. just move a pile of people there
09:57:46 <hsn> The thing is that i dnt trust arab news .. well they basically will say their side of story which is "isreal is bad" .. but idk what the intro of this video is
09:57:53 <hsn> https://www.instagram.com/tv/COmCcTHnEoS/
09:58:29 <hsn> I mean wtf the guy is stupid lol .. he shouldn't reply
09:59:50 <hsn> And anyways this palastine isreal story is waste of energy and time ... Fight until both of u die ... Just stop crying about it all the time
10:04:54 <rust_collector> in one way, I like the israelis. "the world" says, you have to fix this, and bring peace to blahblah, and they say, we can talk about it, and when they talk about it, they just say "nope"
10:06:17 <rust_collector> but I have to say that they should get it done one of these centuries. it is taking a bit of time

10:28:06 <Ysjoelfir> so you still didn't steal that surface plate?
10:28:18 <rust_collector> no, did not go to france yet
10:28:57 <rust_collector> I guess I have to go visit the guy when I need something flat

10:30:42 <Ysjoelfir> yes. what the fuck happened there? XD
10:30:48 <Halcyon> No fucking idea
10:31:28 <rust_collector> they are just waiting for the fire department to come and saw his leg off
10:32:24 <rust_collector> you know, the car has insurance, that guy does not....
10:34:09 <Halcyon> Heh
10:39:24 * Ampera hugs Halcyon
10:40:03 <Halcyon> Hey Ampera :)
10:40:05 <Halcyon> How are you?
10:40:11 <Ampera> annoyed
10:40:19 <Halcyon> Why annoyed?
10:40:27 <Ampera> modular connectors are fucking expensive and I bought two different sets and they're both fucking garbage
10:40:35 <rust_collector> it is jsut me, nothing to worry about
10:40:41 <Halcyon> What kind of modular connectors?
10:40:43 <Ampera> one bag the connectors fuck right off and miss the wires every single time
10:40:45 <Ampera> 8P8C
10:40:50 <Halcyon> Ah
10:41:13 <Ampera> the other bag the clearance is way too damn tight (meant for 5e and I'm using 6 with a plastic thing in the center) so you have to get it just right for it to even make contact
10:41:41 <Ampera> I have one good cable, and I have the big long one that's hopefully good
10:41:42 <Halcyon> The conductors for 6 should be the same as 5e off the top of my head
10:41:52 <Ysjoelfir> gn8 all
10:41:57 <Halcyon> Night Ysjoelfir
10:42:04 <Ampera> they are, but the 6 I've got has a big plastic core in the middle of the cable
10:42:07 <Ampera> like a cross shaped thing
10:42:14 <Halcyon> Yeh, you're cutting that off right?
10:42:15 <rust_collector> nighty night
10:42:24 <Ysjoelfir> btw, for the records: I have been awake for..... 45 hours now. fascinating. gn8
10:42:29 <Ampera> so it's just the right kinda stupid to where no matter how far down you cut it, it's just tall enough to fuck shit up
10:42:35 <Ampera> since the modular connectors are way too damn tight
10:42:43 <Halcyon> Very odd
10:42:53 <Ampera> I have to agree with coppice, these are the worst fucking connectors ever
10:43:11 <Ampera> I should have bought the push through type, so that way I can at least make the wires as long as I want and just cut them off
10:43:35 <Ampera> I think I spent like 30 bucks easy on all of these connectors and I only have 75 of them
10:43:42 <Ampera> I have no idea why they're so fucking expensive
10:44:54 <Halcyon> Beats me
10:45:00 <Halcyon> I didn't think they were that expensive
10:45:25 <Halcyon> I stopped making my own cables many years ago. I just buy pre-made
10:45:53 <Ampera> I could have sworn I looked on amazon and they were more expensive
10:45:55 <Ampera> but apparently not
10:47:04 <steve30> hi
10:47:27 <Halcyon> Hey Steve
10:48:02 <Ampera> bought some ones that aren't shit on Amazon, 50 pack for 16 bucks
10:48:08 <Ampera> and they're the push through type
10:48:18 <Ampera> might be here tomorrow

10:57:33 <alfbaz> hi all
10:57:43 <Ampera> nobody's named all here
10:57:44 <Ampera> you're crazy
10:57:45 <Halcyon> I should mow the lawn, but I can't be bothered
10:57:55 <alfbaz> Ampera, I rue the day I sold my floral GEM777
10:57:58 <Ampera> I thought you were gay, Halcyon
10:58:07 <Halcyon> ?
10:58:14 <Ampera> mowing people's lawns?
10:58:21 <Halcyon> You're weird
10:58:28 <Ampera> you knew this when you bought me
10:58:39 <Halcyon> Heheh well since I own you, you come mow my lawn
10:58:58 <Ampera> I'm busted out of warranty period, don't worry, I'll get right on that
10:59:14 <Ampera> your house will be mowed down right spiffy
10:59:30 <Ampera> How are you doing alfbaz?
10:59:43 <alfbaz> Good thanks Ampera
10:59:54 <alfbaz> and you?
11:00:29 <Ampera> Irritated/ing
11:01:08 <alfbaz> what's causing tjat, halcyon?
11:01:12 <alfbaz> :P
11:01:42 <Ampera> shitty modular connectors
11:02:22 <Ampera> you see these companies have a system. They sell you shitty modular connectors for way too fucking much, but just low enough to where you'd waste more time going back to the store dealing with returning the fucking things than they're worth
11:02:29 <Halcyon> Hm?
11:02:37 <Ampera> so you buy more shitty things, and the cycle repeats
11:02:45 <Halcyon> Don't buy shitty things
11:02:51 <Ampera> says the guy who bought me
11:03:04 <Halcyon> Meh, I keep you around for the laughs
11:03:07 <alfbaz> I tend to buy nice things and make them shitty
11:03:09 <Halcyon> You were cheap anyway :P
11:04:12 <Ampera> to quote that guy from FMJ, I am in a world of shit

11:06:56 <Halcyon> That uses more than my entire rack
11:07:04 <Ampera> do you know what it's doing, too?
11:07:14 <Halcyon> Keeping your basement warm?
11:07:25 <Ampera> that's about it
11:07:40 <Halcyon> I have a few old Dell PowerEdge servers which are probably just as bad
11:07:53 <Ampera> at idle?
11:08:10 <Halcyon> Probably, I haven't used them in many years, they are that old they still use SCSI drives
11:08:22 <Ampera> so do most servers...
11:08:30 <Halcyon> No, as in, not SAS
11:08:35 <Ampera> but SAS is SCSI
11:08:35 <Halcyon> Ultrawide SCSI
11:09:34 <Halcyon> An no one refers to SAS drives as "SCSI drives"

11:11:21 <Halcyon> About 400-500 of that is my rack
11:11:27 <Ampera> I'm trying to run a stress test to see how much power I can get it to draw
11:11:41 <Halcyon> What are the PSU rated at? 1100 watts?
11:12:31 <Ampera> 1200W each
11:12:35 <Ampera> 4 supplies
11:13:08 <Ampera> and that PDU I built is made so it can max out each of them if it wants to
11:14:28 <Ampera> there we go, I'm compressing something on all cores to /dev/null

11:20:21 <Ampera> damn
11:20:25 <Ampera> my max was 982
11:31:30 <Halcyon> Probably not a bad thing :P
11:32:14 <Halcyon> Also, I'm assuming you can essentially halve the total capacity of all those PSUs since they are designed to be redundant
11:32:31 <Halcyon> 1 or 2 power supplies should be able to cop the full load

11:41:54 <Halcyon> Welcome Taclair
11:42:09 * steve30 meows at Halcyon
11:42:17 <Halcyon> Heya Steve :)
11:42:19 <Taclair> Good day
11:42:33 <Halcyon> It's a bit early in the morning for you isn't it Steve?
11:42:51 <steve30> nope
11:43:01 <Halcyon> It's almost 0300 ?
11:43:17 <Halcyon> Oh yay, my solar is producing 6 kW
11:43:25 <Halcyon> Not bad for shitty autumn
11:43:44 * steve30 produced about 9kWh yesterday
11:44:27 <Taclair> This is a bit new to me, and perhaps the forums would be a better place to start. But i figured i'd give this a go. Hope someone could bear with me for a few questions
11:44:29 <Halcyon> I did around the same, although it was partly cloudy and I used most of it
11:44:50 <Halcyon> On a bright autumn day, it's up around the 18-20 kWh
11:45:08 <Halcyon> Sure Taclair, always happy to have new members, especially on IRC
11:46:01 <Taclair> I'm starting to poke around with some electronics repair. One part because i want to make things last, which seems to be a challenge these days. The second part is due to interest.
11:46:15 <Taclair> I work in electrical/controls so i have some background on these things, but nothing electronics side
11:46:38 <Halcyon> I'll try to help out as best I can, but I'm not an EE, there are several here who are, but they might be asleep (since they are mostly from the US)
11:46:39 <Taclair> I have a
11:46:58 <Halcyon> But ask away anyway, someone might know
11:47:48 <alfbaz> I'm a sqrt(EE)
11:47:54 <Taclair> "patient" right now that needs some fixing. A small ethernet router. I don't want to be a bother in regards to troubleshooting it, but hoping to get some direction on where to start either educating myself & a few logic based thigns to work through
11:48:16 <Halcyon> What's wrong with it?
11:48:24 <Taclair> Fat fingered the enter key. should have read "I have a patient..."
11:49:32 <Taclair> When powered, the LED indicator on the power adapter goes out immediately. I spliced the cable apart and measured voltage on my meter. Plugged in it is providing 0VDC, unplugged to the router is 19VDC. Which is the rating
11:49:51 <Halcyon> Sounds like a short to me?
11:49:52 <Taclair> I had a second power adapter which i swapped in. same
11:50:11 <Taclair> Yes. I thought the same
11:50:18 <Halcyon> Did the router get damaged by lightning or anything?
11:50:21 <Taclair> I opened the router and inspected the board
11:50:25 <Taclair> nothing obvious
11:50:49 <Taclair> Not sure about lightning etc. Haven't had anything like that in sometime so i think not
11:50:59 <Taclair> Just coming out of winter around here
11:51:39 <Taclair> Probably go through the board further with a magnifing glass
11:51:45 <Taclair> I presume is the next step
11:52:17 <T3sl4> you might not see anything. the adapter probably doesn't deliver much power when it's shorted (does it make a ticking sound?)
11:52:33 <Halcyon> Well the issue is somewhere on the power input right? I guess start at the connector and work your way inward, measure and look for obvious shorts to start with?
11:52:47 <Taclair> No sound from the adapter.
11:52:59 <Halcyon> T3sl4 is one of our resident clever people
11:53:00 <T3sl4> i would guess cracked ceramic capacitor, or burned tantalum if they even used any, or shorted regulator(s)
11:54:00 <Taclair> Ok. There is a capacitor immediately after the power supply. 470uF. When i attempt to meter it out I get OL. I did check my meter-- rated to 1000uF
11:54:57 <Halcyon> As a noob, can you measure caps in-circuit T3sl4 ?
11:55:13 <T3sl4> not really
11:55:23 <Taclair> Ok, that answers that.
11:55:39 <T3sl4> more to the point, if it measures like 0.3 ohms or whatever, then that
11:56:16 <Halcyon> And that would be bad because... ?
11:56:17 <Taclair> Could you expand? I get 3.0 ohms across it
11:56:19 <Halcyon> (I'm learning too)
11:56:54 <Taclair> Also, as an aside. If there is a clearly written beginners book on troubleshooting this sort of stuff- i'd appreciate the recommendation
11:57:23 <Taclair> A few of the books i've looked into.. needed editing for clarity
11:57:29 <Halcyon> There's an idea T3sl4, become an author. "EE by Timmeh"
11:57:41 <T3sl4> uh, beats me, i haven't read that sort of stuff in decades :P
11:58:13 <T3sl4> Halcyon: there is an excellent series of EE books by /a/ Tim Williams (no relation) ;)
11:58:45 <Halcyon> Link?
11:58:46 <Halcyon> :P
11:59:30 <alfbaz> If you already have an electrical background an excellent starter book is Practical Electronics For Inventors by Paul Scherz and Simon Monk
11:59:35 Quit: Tezzers ([email protected]) Quit: Leaving
12:00:26 <alfbaz> Hell if you don't have an electrical background that book is excellent
12:00:41 <Taclair> TY alfbaz. Amazoned it
12:01:05 <Halcyon> Where you from Taclair if you don't mind me asking?
12:01:22 <Taclair> Alberta Canada
12:01:33 <Halcyon> Nice
12:02:20 <T3sl4> Halcyon: https://www.amazon.com/Circuit-Designers-Companion-Tim-Williams/dp/0750663707 it sounds a little advanced for present topic though :P
12:02:20 <EEVBot> [Title] - Sorry! Something went wrong!
12:02:52 <Halcyon> Now next question T3sl4, did you actually write it?
12:03:06 <Halcyon> I couldn't tell by the winky face
12:03:13 <Taclair> @T3sl4 I will add it to my wishlist. Once I get to that level one day
12:03:45 <T3sl4> i did say "no relation" Halcyon
12:04:12 <Halcyon> Yes, followed by a wink. So I'm not sure if you were just playing with me or not :P
12:05:39 <alfbaz> This sounds like foreplay, hangon a minute lemme get my camera :P
12:05:51 <Halcyon> Hah
12:06:04 <Halcyon> I wish, T3sl4 is nothing more than a prick tease
12:06:12 <alfbaz> LMAO
12:06:21 <Halcyon> He gets the gays all tizzed up then runs away
12:07:20 * Ampera stabs Halcyon with a rusty icicle
12:07:28 * T3sl4 licks Ampera
12:07:45 * Ampera stabs T3sl4 with another, smarter, cuter, weirder T3sl4
12:07:52 <T3sl4> \o/
12:07:55 <Halcyon> Hahah
12:08:05 <Halcyon> It's getting weird again :P
12:08:17 <T3sl4> well, according to Halcyon, nothing could be cuter, but i'll accept the other things i guess?
12:08:34 <Halcyon> I never said that
12:08:39 <Ampera> see
12:08:50 <Ampera> even Halcyon, practically your husband, thinks you're ugly
12:09:05 <Halcyon> Bitch please
12:09:17 <Ampera> you're welcome
12:09:18 <Halcyon> T3sl4 has to work much harder than that :P
12:09:37 <Ampera> so it's a breadwinner you want then...
12:09:46 <Halcyon> No. I am the breadwinner.
12:10:01 <Halcyon> T3sl4 just sits around in his undies, tinkering with stuff and scratching himself
12:10:10 <alfbaz> I won some bread once :
12:10:19 <Halcyon> You "won" bread?
12:10:21 <Ampera> alfbaz, that sounds like a most wonderful competition
12:10:23 <Halcyon> How did this occur?
12:10:26 <Ampera> bread is delicious
12:10:29 <T3sl4> wait, my webcam isn't on, Halcyon
12:10:30 <Ampera> good bread anyways
12:10:46 <alfbaz> it was a bread raffle
12:10:57 <Ampera> T3sl4, well the one he hid is technically not /your/ webcam
12:11:06 <T3sl4> ah, true
12:11:09 * T3sl4 waves
12:11:12 <Halcyon> Where does one find a bread raffle?
12:11:17 <Halcyon> I assume this was a bakery?
12:11:18 <alfbaz> T3sl4, don't worry my cam's been rolling for awhile
12:11:44 <Ampera> my webcam is the size of a quite large potato
12:12:00 <alfbaz> It might of been a bread raffle it might not have, I was too pissed to remember:P
12:12:00 <Halcyon> Oh speaking of delicious things, Ampera, I went out for dinner last night and had the most amazing duck liver parfait
12:12:13 <T3sl4> potatos have eyes, so that makes sense
12:12:14 <Ampera> aren't parfaits usually desert items?
12:12:23 <Ampera> T3sl4, so do the walls
12:12:28 <T3sl4> and hills
12:12:29 <Halcyon> It's more of a textural thing
12:12:32 <Taclair> @Halcyon you OUT for dinner? Envy.
12:12:42 <T3sl4> well he's not closeted for dinner
12:12:46 <Ampera> I was out for lunch earlier today
12:12:51 <Halcyon> What do you mean Taclair ?
12:13:00 <Ampera> Halcyon, I thought it was a sort of layered yogurt, fruit, granola thing
12:13:06 <Halcyon> Usually yes
12:13:10 <Taclair> No open restaurants in this part of the world. Take out only :/
12:13:18 <T3sl4> where dat
12:13:19 <Ampera> how on earth does one make that out of duck liver
12:13:21 <Halcyon> Unless I was just too smashed and remembered the menu wrong...
12:13:40 <Halcyon> https://kingsleyssydney.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/KIN-Menu-March2021-Web.pdf
12:13:55 <Halcyon> Nope it was "parfait". I guess you could just call it a pate, but that's not a fancy? I dunno
12:13:57 <T3sl4> Ampera: i'm reminded of an old ep of Iron Chef where one of them makes fish guts ice cream or something like that?
12:14:18 <Halcyon> I also had the rock oysters, mud crab and sirloin
12:14:36 * T3sl4 serves Halcyon Ampera's rocky mountain oysters
12:14:36 <Ampera> Halcyon, all the photos I get are from micromeal bullshit sites, so it's probably some high end stupid thing
12:14:49 <Ampera> I'd totally try a rocky mountain oyster
12:14:50 <Halcyon> It was. I treated myself
12:15:12 <Ampera> good food should not be served in small quantities
12:15:15 <Ampera> no exceptions
12:15:17 <Halcyon> We didn't walk out of there for less than $600, mind you that was with drinks... many many drinks
12:15:57 <Ampera> you see, people almost upset at me for buying a power drain of a server and not having big plans for it
12:16:03 <Ampera> then you go out and spend 600 bucks on a dinner
12:16:23 <Ampera> I could probably feed a hundred people for that price
12:16:28 <T3sl4> Ampera: ten good foods however
12:17:40 <Ampera> what the fuck
12:17:45 <Ampera> bone in ribeye for 125 bucks
12:18:03 <Halcyon> It's *very* good
12:18:17 <alfbaz> bought a burger a wanky burger joint the other week, bastards charged me 20 bucks for it and it was shit
12:18:20 <Ampera> current conversion that's 100 USD
12:18:34 <Halcyon> I sent you a photo, you could see the city, it was very pretty
12:18:46 <Ampera> I don't care how good that is, I can go fucking mental in a supermarket for 100 bucks
12:19:43 <Halcyon> As I said, I treated myself. It's a "sometimes" thing
12:19:46 <Ampera> looks like a still out of a poorly lit future distopian film
12:19:48 <alfbaz> LOL food prices are insane here at the moment 100 bucks will get you 1 maybe 2 bags of stuff from the supermarket
12:20:08 <Halcyon> It was night time and I took it on my phone
12:20:11 <Halcyon> What more do you want?
12:20:25 <Ampera> I think the most I ever spent on groceries in my life was 250 bucks (US)
12:20:38 <Ampera> and I think I went to two stores and completely filled my cart
12:20:51 <Halcyon> I'll fill your cart Ampera
12:21:00 <Ampera> yeah you would, fatass
12:21:18 <Halcyon> Pfft
12:21:22 <Halcyon> My ass is pert
12:21:24 <alfbaz> the sexual tension here is immense
12:21:36 <Ampera> alfbaz, nobody here has escaped puberty yet
12:21:41 <Halcyon> Impossible alfbaz, Ampera is asexual
12:21:48 <Ampera> a sexual what?
12:21:49 <Ampera> deviant?
12:22:02 <alfbaz> I thought it was inescapable
12:22:33 <alfbaz> %20 was missing between the 2
12:22:41 <Halcyon> Stupid clouds, fuck off
12:22:46 <Halcyon> I'm trying to solarise
12:23:08 <steve30> I'm just investigating train prices to go to York. Nice to see that there is a choice of /seventeen/ different prices for a 20 minute single journey.
12:23:20 * alfbaz sends Halcyon al the Illawarra clouds
12:23:25 <Halcyon> Why steve30 ?
12:23:30 <Halcyon> How does that make sense?
12:23:40 <steve30> Because England.
12:23:47 <Halcyon> Good luck alfbaz, I'm 800 metres ASL
12:23:55 <Halcyon> You'll crash them into the mountain
12:24:00 <Ampera> steve30, which one includes a handsome young bag handler to fellate you for the entire journey
12:24:22 <Halcyon> I actually don't know how our trains work, since I haven't paid for one in over 12 years
12:24:40 <steve30> Ampera, you probably have to book that as an extra :p
12:25:07 <Ampera> Halcyon's A/S/L? 64/never/chained to a lamppost outside a retirement home
12:25:13 <Halcyon> Looks like ours are based on kilometers, with a capped price
12:25:29 <Halcyon> 64? Get fucked :P
12:25:39 <Halcyon> You can halve that just about thank you
12:25:51 <Ampera> 48?
12:25:55 <Ampera> sorry my math isn't very good
12:26:03 <Halcyon> That's not the only thing
12:27:01 <Ampera> The joke here is, for those not paying attention, is that Halcyon fears his own quickly approaching obsolescence
12:27:26 <Halcyon> The trains, buses, ferry and light rail here are all capped at a maximum of $16.10/day or $50 per week on weekdays, or $8.05 per day on a weekend/public holiday, for unlimited travel
12:27:39 <T3sl4> Ampera is projecting again
12:27:40 <Ampera> haha that's cute
12:27:42 <Halcyon> Same card gets you on all of them,
12:28:11 <alfbaz> is tha one of them opal things?
12:28:15 <Halcyon> Yep
12:28:15 <Ampera> the only good thing about our trains is they are the coziest fucking places in the middle of a hard dick winter
12:28:35 <Halcyon> I like the sound of your winters Ampera
12:28:47 <Ampera> good, then come over here and help shovel our winters
12:28:57 <Halcyon> I will once you come mow my lawn
12:29:11 <Ampera> you get a cracked split plastic shovel, no gloves, and you need to get creative where to put the snow
12:29:22 <Halcyon> Oh I know just where to put it
12:29:25 <steve30> It was only a couple of years ago that I learnt there was a differnece between a Return ticket and a Day Return.
12:29:32 <Halcyon> Let's just say you'll have a very moist and cold bed :P
12:29:56 <Halcyon> Sounds redundant Steve
12:29:58 <Ampera> Halcyon, you're supposed to take your dentures out when you go to bed, otherwise that happens
12:30:12 <Halcyon> :P
12:30:34 <steve30> Halcyon, Day return is valid on one day only. 'Return' is valid to travel outwards within a few days and come back within a month.
12:31:01 <Halcyon> So what's the point of having the "day return" then, when the other thing essentially does the same thing?
12:31:41 <steve30> On some routes you can only get one or the other. I'm guessing on some routes you can get a choice of both at different prices, but I don't know.
12:32:57 <Halcyon> It just sounds overly complex and needless to me
12:34:03 <alfbaz> I'm taking this out to the shed. Last wall to gyprock and then its on to the ceiling. I'll take some pics and post my progress
12:34:21 <T3sl4> don't get gypped
12:34:26 <Halcyon> Are you heating/air conditioning your shed alfbaz ?
12:34:41 <alfbaz> yes eventually, air con
12:34:47 <Halcyon> Nice
12:34:50 <steve30> If I want a single to York at 9:04 I can buy an advance ticket for either £11, £12, £13, £14, £15 or £17.40. If I want to go at anytime today I can get an Anytime ticket for either £19.50, £21.60, or £27.20.
12:34:57 <Halcyon> Insulated walls I'm assuming?
12:35:34 <steve30> If I'm posh and want to travel at 9:04 I can get an advance 1st class ticker for £19, £20, £20.80, £22, £23, £25.20, or £28.50
12:35:41 <alfbaz> the whole shed is insulated with that thin air cell stuff, the office has additional pink bats
12:36:03 <steve30> Or if I'm rich and want the flexibility to go at any time I can get a 1st class anytime for £29, £31, £58, or £62.
12:36:55 <Halcyon> We don't have different "classes" of rail with the exeption of some interstate services and overnight journeys
12:37:20 <Halcyon> But they are private operators, seperate from the government rail network
12:37:44 <alfbaz> steve30, didn't I read a New York ticket? If so I'm confused with the pounds
12:37:55 <Halcyon> York (UK)
12:37:56 <steve30> Bigger trains have 1st class carriages. On occasion, the tickets for that are cheaper, because.... But usually they're more expensive
12:38:05 <alfbaz> ahh
12:38:06 <steve30> alfbaz, no, York in England.
12:38:35 <Halcyon> Anyway, train tickets aside, what's in York that you're going for Steve?
12:40:22 <steve30> BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! If I want to catch the 11:10 train, there's a choice of 27 different prices! Yes! Twenty Seven!
12:42:11 <Halcyon> That's bullshit Steve

12:43:42 <steve30> don't forget to click the + buttons to view all prices

12:45:30 <Halcyon> Ooooh
12:45:31 <Halcyon> :P
12:46:03 <steve30> I see National rail enquiries are a bit more polite now and just say "thankyou for wearing a face covering"
12:46:22 <steve30> A while back they said something like "British transport police are issuing fines of up to £6000 to make your journey safer"
12:48:04 <Halcyon> Rude
12:48:43 <Halcyon> We've been told to exercise "compliance" as opposed to "enforcement"
13:01:58 <steve30> So you don't give people fines to make them safer?
13:04:16 <Halcyon> The point is, it less about the fines and more about getting people to do the right thing
13:04:27 <Halcyon> But if they carry on like Karen's, fuck em
13:19:04 <steve30> Is travelling to hook up with a cute twink an acceptable excuse for travelling? :p
13:19:18 <Halcyon> You can't travel Steve?

15:06:46 <Halcyon> Swap it out with ham
15:07:31 <alfbaz> there's a knob of butter, combined with the lemon zest, it's just deleicous. Made it before
15:08:02 <alfbaz> ham... the wog in me forbids it :P
15:08:45 <alfbaz> love my chorizo

15:10:36 <Halcyon> What about pancetta?
15:10:36 <alfbaz> parents never got into it but as kids we'd go visit people that were, I'd grab a knife, sneak into their basements/garages and go sick on their hanging cured meats :P
15:11:03 <alfbaz> Mmm yes!
15:11:54 <alfbaz> Fuck, now I'm hungry and dinner is hours away

15:14:11 <alfbaz> that guy is hilarious
15:14:39 <Halcyon> He is amazing and actually a pretty good cook
15:15:04 <alfbaz> you'd never think it looking at him
15:15:22 <Halcyon> Part of the reason why I like him
15:15:26 <Halcyon> He is very no nonsense
15:17:38 <Halcyon> His roast chicken recipe is pretty good

16:49:40 <Ysjoelfir> so... after sleeping for 2.5 hours now I continued with the coffee mill restauration. build a "damn that bucket is rusted from the inside, now how do I get that cleaned?"-jig.

16:51:09 <rust_collector> oh , mr fancy can not tape bucket to car wheel, he makes pretend car inside
16:53:24 <Ysjoelfir> yes mr. sir
16:54:05 <rust_collector> you fill bucket with MSG and remove rust
16:54:35 <rust_collector> very good
16:55:18 <Ysjoelfir> 4mmx20 wood screws in that case. torx head.
16:55:56 <rust_collector> no msg... no flavour. so sad
16:58:00 <Ysjoelfir> I wonder how long I should let that rotate
16:58:37 <Ysjoelfir> its making annoying sounds and I am still tired as fuck and want to go back to sleep, but I had to let mrs spouse and mr. gworg outside, which is why I had to get up in the first place
16:59:39 <rust_collector> weeeellllll.... I would give it 15 minutes, just to see if anything happens at all
16:59:48 <rust_collector> it will, but...
17:01:16 <rust_collector> Once, I saw a guy trying something similar, but not on a grinder. he filled his box with sand, and started shaking it. that must have been a great workout.
17:01:34 <rust_collector> because he filled it full.
17:01:49 <rust_collector> that was great
17:04:48 <rust_collector> you should make cardboard figures, and run a system of ropes from that grinder, so it looks like people are moving around inside
17:07:33 <Ysjoelfir> lol :D like an old transmission system?
17:07:46 <Ysjoelfir> using nice long flat leather belts
17:08:26 <rust_collector> yeeees
17:09:52 <rust_collector> hmm, there has been a little knocking sound here all day.... and now I figured it out
17:10:25 <rust_collector> there was 2 magpies, pecking at an old rug outside
17:12:47 <Ysjoelfir> Hehe. So todays menu will be magpie?
17:13:39 <Ysjoelfir> So after having that thing running for like 10 minutes it did pretty good progress. I think I leave that doing its thing for half an hour now and then it should be splendid inside there
17:16:04 <rust_collector> nice
17:16:48 <Ysjoelfir> mkay
17:19:13 * Ysjoelfir wonders if anybody gets the reference
17:19:41 <rust_collector> I didn't get anything, because I feel like you should be feeling.
17:20:37 <Ysjoelfir> do you know the steve1989 mreinfo guy?
17:20:53 <rust_collector> the tray guy... yes
17:21:11 <Ysjoelfir> "lets put it up onto a tray. Nice! mkay."
17:21:13 <rust_collector> are you saying there was a hiss when you opened it

17:24:27 <rust_collector> i wonder if I should find some kind of socket, or just solder wires to the old transistor. in one way, I guess soldering it would be better, until I burn it up, and have to replace it...
17:24:45 <Ysjoelfir> TO3?
17:24:50 <rust_collector> sort of yes
17:25:16 <rust_collector> the eastern version. probably the same size
17:26:17 <Ysjoelfir> I think so, yes. at least my T3sl4 Brand 2N3055 are compatible to western TO-3. I have to admit that one thing I absolutely love about TO-3 is, that there were sockets available for those. its just soooo convenient
17:26:39 <rust_collector> it would be.
17:27:18 <rust_collector> yeah, why not. it is not like I need many of them
17:28:34 <rust_collector> yes, it says it is the same.
17:37:40 <rust_collector> hmmm. the volvo/chevrolet/mercruiser part are ready to be picked up. maybe I will do that tomorrow
17:41:03 <rust_collector> it will be nice to get that thing out of half the garage. uhm, so I can start on the skoda engine, lol
17:42:59 <Ysjoelfir> hehehe :D

17:44:04 <rust_collector> that is not terrible....
17:44:24 <Ysjoelfir> I wonder if I should somehow protect that now. its bone dry, so I don't tink its completelly neccessary?
17:45:41 <rust_collector> hmmm, but will it always be dry... and if you are going to do some more work on it, don't bother yet
17:47:42 <rust_collector> I was thinking about being a bit retro, and just coating it is "lead". it might not be pc these days...
17:49:07 <rust_collector> I guess it would go dull and grey at some time. but...
17:51:45 <DogWomble> <rust_collector> Once, I saw a guy trying something similar, but not on a grinder ... why did I read that as "but not on Grindr"
17:52:43 <rust_collector> well, that was correct too, so
17:52:59 <rust_collector> Maybe you have been watching too much bbc?
17:53:25 <Ysjoelfir> what is grindr?
17:53:36 <DogWomble> basically the gay version of tinder
17:53:41 <rust_collector> uhm, dating app, I guess
17:54:47 <Ysjoelfir> and rusty, no, it won't be dry forever obviously, but I think I leave it like it is for now. I still need to strip the chrome from the outside, "de-dent" it and add a new whatnot finish. while doing that this finish will be on the inside to, if I electroplate it with something, so maybe that will be enough
17:55:13 <rust_collector> yeah
17:55:44 <rust_collector> don't try to get all the dings out of it. unless you feel like making a new one
17:56:19 <Ysjoelfir> heh, I won't manage probably, there are some pretty "sharp" dents in there. not only like bowl shaped ones
17:56:31 <Ysjoelfir> I am pretty sure I won't be able to get those out
17:56:34 <rust_collector> well, I mean, you can try, but.. don't try too hard
17:56:53 <Ysjoelfir> I want it to tell some kind of story, so a few marks are fine for me
17:57:42 <Ysjoelfir> I just wonder how I would do that the best way. I haven't done that before, especially not on rounded stuff. I doubt I will get good results with a standard flat face hammer?
17:58:00 <rust_collector> it is just very easy to screw it up much worse than it is, with all the stretching.
18:00:11 <rust_collector> uhm, well, in my opinion, you should make a dolly, that fits inside, then use a more or less flat faced hammer on the outside. then carefully tap it in, going in circles around the dent. try to "roll" or "rub" the metal back into place, more than bashing it with a hammer
18:00:44 <rust_collector> just some heavy-ish piece with about the same curve as the inside
18:01:04 <rust_collector> that thing is pretty thin metal, isn't it?
18:01:11 <Ysjoelfir> that sounds easy enough to do
18:02:04 <rust_collector> is it 0.6mm or so metal? maybe even thinner?
18:02:56 <rust_collector> if ti is very thin, you might be able to use a wooden spoon, and just push it into shape
18:03:33 <Ysjoelfir> yeah, its pretty thin. I don't remember if you were there yesterday when I wrote it, I found several datecodes when disassembling it and it seems like its from 54. so right in the time of "damn, we don't have any material left but now after the war is over we need to get back in business!" :P
18:04:09 <Ysjoelfir> oooh, I see! nice idea. or make a wooden shape that goes smooth to some of the faces and use the method you described before
18:04:58 <rust_collector> as you are going to strip and coat it... you can maybe try to shrink a bit, on the bigger dings. just heat it in the middle, and it will shrink the stretched metal back into shape a bit more
18:05:15 <rust_collector> but be careful
18:06:09 <rust_collector> well, that, and the shape of it, makes it pretty strong, so they don't need all that much metal in it.
18:06:37 <rust_collector> for what it was going to be used for, i mean
18:06:57 <Ysjoelfir> thats true
18:07:20 <Ysjoelfir> or I go all in and do it the german way. like, drive it to perfection xD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFnIDeGHwUs

18:07:47 <rust_collector> ehm
18:08:35 <rust_collector> so, there is a guy on youtube, called trevs blog. he has some pretty good videos about dents and shaping metal
18:09:57 <rust_collector> at least he explains things in a way even I get
18:10:50 <Ysjoelfir> nice, I should definitely watch that
18:11:28 <rust_collector> but be careful, you could end up watching youtube all week. it is strangely addictive
18:13:34 <Ysjoelfir> eeeeeh. I can kind of relate to that, yes :P
18:14:21 <Ysjoelfir> But before I watch anything, I should go to rest now, the noise from the bean bucket tumbling around is gone now and I managed already four times falling asleep sitting here at the pc while holding my glass.
18:14:48 <rust_collector> balance your glass on top of your head
18:14:56 <Ysjoelfir> no.

18:25:28 <rust_collector> no, it is put together from several words, which might have been used for that

18:26:43 <Lemon> Tohou va-vohou

18:27:43 <rust_collector> okeh
18:27:55 <Lemon> thats a fun word

18:30:01 <Lemon> heh maybe I will ask a friend
18:34:08 <rust_collector> I don't think he would remember. it is a long time since the world was empty

19:04:05 <EEVBot> [Twitter] - eevblog - The @Enphase systems are overloaded. https://t.co/aVpKaztiFN
19:05:02 <Lemon> hmmm well it depends it seems, sometimes its decent like the fluke (free) sometimes its expensive but alrightish (50 euros for a 10kg item) or US like, when in fact its maybe 10kg like the 50 euro item
19:06:29 <rust_collector> it always depends. but in general... the stuff I would want from israel is heavy, and the stuff from the us is cheap but shipping. and most of the time, I only find deals on things that only run on 120v
19:07:42 <Lemon> ha yeah 120v stuff sucks
19:07:51 <Lemon> but yeah like the nice hp power supply I dream off for 116 usd
19:07:55 <Lemon> I'd buy 3 for that price
19:08:04 <Lemon> they sell up to 5-700 euros in europe

19:11:09 * rust_collector coffes
19:11:57 <rust_collector> Lemon that guy had one little hp power thing I really did like. it was sort of small, and would fit nicely on my bench
19:12:21 <rust_collector> yeah, it did look like it had been in the sea, but...
19:12:47 <EEVBot> [Twitter] - eevblog - I've now reconfigured my dual solar system to have the new Enphase array only measure it's own production, and the… https://t.co/sRKktevVc7
19:13:25 <Lemon> ha yeah but it had an issue I think
19:14:22 <rust_collector> I don't care, it was a nice compact 3 channel sane power one. it was if nothing else the model I would like
19:15:34 <Lemon> yeah they are nice
19:15:52 <Lemon> my topward is somewhat like that, with 2 outputs at 32v/2a, and one fixed 5v3a
19:16:18 <Lemon> I need to re-calibrate it because I did it with my systron donner dmm, and later realized it got a big offset
19:16:30 <Lemon> also, the second output got 0.3v at zero position
19:16:39 <Lemon> maybe it was removed and placed badly
19:17:51 <rust_collector> my crapbox power has a little capacitor on the output, and when you set it to 0v, without any load, it tends to "float" up a bit
19:18:31 <rust_collector> short the output, and it goes to 0, then in a bit, it will float up a little again
19:19:17 <rust_collector> I think I should maybe put a little resistor across it, just to make it "nice"
19:19:51 <electrohead> sounds like a reasonable idea
19:20:21 <rust_collector> or, I could just ignore it, and turn the thing off when I don't use it. that will also not show anything on the meter
19:21:19 <Lemon> hmm I see
19:21:25 <Lemon> on mine its definitively a mechanical issue
19:21:41 <Lemon> the other supply, the gossen konstanter is incredible
19:21:50 <Lemon> single output at 32v 2a but its so damn stable
19:22:22 <Lemon> if I set it at 1v, the 3456a will show maybe +-2 uV of movement over time
19:24:49 <Lemon> the topward on the other hand is not so stable
19:24:53 <Lemon> its not bad by any means
19:25:00 <Lemon> but it moves by 100ppm randomly
19:25:10 <Lemon> maybe filter caps are tired ?
19:26:14 <rust_collector> eeh, who knows how the rest would react to that...
19:26:18 <rust_collector> maybe
19:27:59 <rust_collector> heh, this thing is nowhere close to stable, lol. the pot in it is a bit weird too, so it could be part of it
19:31:47 <Lemon> well dont get me wrong its decently stable
19:32:00 <Lemon> like 5v, it will be stable down to 100uV
19:32:07 <Lemon> which isnt horrible
19:32:12 <Lemon> but im sure it could do much better
19:35:48 <rust_collector> crap, some leds are so incredibly bright. and the power things seems happy to run a led at 7.77v, at exactly that setting it is stable-ish

20:01:07 <electrohead> Ja.
20:01:27 <Ysjoelfir> its an old german scientific childrens show, explaining how "living" works. in that intro you see mainly the blood stuff. well, and viruses and bacteria.
20:02:30 <K> and some titty

20:02:42 <electrohead> animations make everything better :P

20:03:23 <rust_collector> oh but damnit... I never learn
20:04:22 <rust_collector> I am trying to feel if this led gets warm, but I use my dead finger, so I don't... blaaah. well, it is hot, it is smoking slightly
20:05:03 <Ysjoelfir> argh xD
20:05:26 <Ysjoelfir> how did you manage to deaden your finger?
20:05:41 <rust_collector> It fell off, when I ran it thru the saw
20:06:00 <electrohead> fell off, or cut off? lol
20:06:07 <Ysjoelfir> that sounds pretty effective.
20:06:13 <rust_collector> well, it was cut off, then fell
20:06:19 <Lemon> aye
20:06:34 <electrohead> whoops
20:06:48 <Lemon> im curious, your brain in those situations probably send lots of signals to your body to cover pain with adrenaline
20:07:02 <Lemon> was it super hurtful ? or you barely felt a thing atf irst ?
20:07:32 <rust_collector> nah, it was ok.
20:08:01 <Lemon> and they managed to sew it back correctly ?
20:08:20 <Lemon> a friend lost 4 fingers while fiddling with his motorbike, but he didnt realize at first as he had a glove
20:08:26 <Lemon> it was in winter
20:08:29 <rust_collector> yeah, pretty good.
20:08:30 <Ysjoelfir> I assume rusty would be looking at that, blood dribbling out, and he's like "meh, let me just quickly finish that cut. .... so, now where did that stupid thing go? *searches for finger in the sawdust*
20:08:45 <Lemon> lick it and glue it back

20:18:25 <Ysjoelfir> you should ask T3sl4 about that, he has experience in those regions
20:18:47 <electrohead> I searched online, there are many things I found
20:19:31 <rust_collector> yes, lots of things online
20:19:32 <Lemon> also they say 1k hours with a single 9V battery
20:19:35 <Lemon> its quite neat
20:22:54 <Lemon> I always tell people wanting a cheap dmm to look at old ones, rather than new chinese shit
20:23:16 <Lemon> in france theres lots of old metrix for 20-30 euros, those are well protected and somewhat serviceable
20:23:23 <Lemon> newer metrix stuff on other hand isnt good
20:23:32 <Lemon> its mostly rebranded chinese things

20:50:02 <Ysjoelfir> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osTrIUT0zu0 I hate videos loke that. How to remove chrome from stuff. first, isolate part that needs removing. second, remove remaining paint with paint stripper. third, fuck, this is dangerous and toxic. just contact a local finishing shop and ask them to remove the chrome.

20:50:41 <Ampera> good morning
20:50:44 <Ampera> weirdos
20:51:02 <Ysjoelfir> food morning
20:51:14 <Ysjoelfir> weirunix
20:51:56 <alfbaz> Hidi ho Ampera
20:52:22 <Ampera> hello alfbaz, how are you doing
20:52:28 <Lemon> helllo !
20:52:54 * electrohead waves and stuff
21:00:03 * Ampera squeezes the Lemon
21:00:24 <alfbaz> Ampera, Good thanks numbing my brain watching big brother
21:00:47 <Ampera> there's numbing, and then there's horse tranquilizer
21:00:48 <electrohead> and big brother is watching you :P
21:01:54 <alfbaz> Shit you would never watch in a million years suddenly ends up before your eyes when you have a wife :c
21:02:06 <rust_collector> I thought it was ceiling cat
21:02:38 <Ampera> advise taken, remain alone forever
21:02:44 <Ampera> er, advice
21:02:48 <alfbaz> lol
21:03:35 <alfbaz> There was a stage where I was watching bold and the beautifull :s
21:03:39 * Ysjoelfir advertises a vise to Ampera
21:04:09 <Ampera> alfbaz, I'd rather eat soap
21:07:26 <alfbaz> Don't worry if you get married she'll make wash your mouth out with it :P
21:09:02 <Ysjoelfir> I am pretty happy that I made clear from the beginning that I hate watching TV. I am willing to play pretty much any game she wants so that she can watch it on the TV while I play, but I won't watch TV if I don't want to :D
21:09:20 <Ysjoelfir> And I mean, like, any at all. I asolutely hate watching TV stuff
21:09:47 <Ampera> I don't really watch TV myself
21:10:17 <Ampera> if I have nothing better to do, I'll turn on a baseball game or adult swim or something, but that's rarely the case

21:25:36 <Ysjoelfir> erm....
21:26:58 <Ysjoelfir> that is....
21:27:11 <K> a very talented chicken!
21:27:11 <Ysjoelfir> erm.. somehow pretty coll but also frightening
21:27:24 <Ysjoelfir> I very much enjoy the cat in the background as well
21:28:15 <alfbaz> Well it's all about compromise for me, she puts up with me spending heaps of time in the lab, so if I venture out into the lounge I can't really make an arguement for a channel change
21:29:04 <Ysjoelfir> that otoh is a part I have to wrestle with her all the time. she doesn't like being alone, but is bored in the lab even though I tried to add all sorts of stuff for her enjoyment there
21:30:51 <rust_collector> that chicken sounds better than the smurf who sings for rush...
21:31:00 <Ysjoelfir> lol
21:31:30 <alfbaz> Yeah the new one I'm building is gonna have a recliner and a wall hung TV for her but I fear it defeats the purpose of getting my lab outa the house. It's extermely difficult to so any real work with constant interruptions
21:32:12 <Ysjoelfir> jep, I agree to that highly. sadlt much of my work is done on my workstation, which is in the living room. I sometimes consider adding a second PC to the lab for that purpose
21:32:30 <rust_collector> Ysjoelfir I did not know she was into wrestling? sounds fun
21:32:52 <Ysjoelfir> oh we love wrestling. :)
21:33:12 <rust_collector> must be annoying when you are trying to do something, and BAM!
21:33:26 <Ysjoelfir> it is
21:33:42 <alfbaz> It use to take me 10 to 15 minutes to get into the 'zone' for complicated stuff. I'm older now and it takes me 30 to 40 minutes to get into it, one question or comment from her and its gone
21:34:42 <alfbaz> ... this is why I stay up 'till all hour of the morning but the brain isn't at its peak at this time
21:34:51 <Ysjoelfir> I am struggling with concentration problems for some years (but getting that (hopefully) fixed very soon), so I am also in that 30 to 40 minute zone and can relate
21:35:31 <rust_collector> noobs... I have been trying for 40+ years, and I still am nowhere near any zone
21:35:46 <Ysjoelfir> I wonder, rust_collector... do you think that electroplating stuff in a ultrasonic bath would add to the effectiveness or just destroy the surface finish?
21:35:48 <Ysjoelfir> lol
21:36:09 <rust_collector> uhm. I have no idea
21:36:27 <rust_collector> try it on some random piece?
21:37:14 <K> https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/sfj1950/11/1/11_1_20/_article
21:37:17 <EEVBot> [Title] - The Effect of Ultrasonic Waves on the Electroplating On the Bright Nickel Plating
21:37:41 <rust_collector> electroplating tends to work in a line of sight way, so I doubt it would help anything get into the joints and such. but as it uses charges to move the stuff onto the metal, I sort of doubt it would do anything ?
21:39:17 <rust_collector> that is interesting
21:42:45 <Ysjoelfir> Let me try to read that
21:42:58 <Ysjoelfir> argh, only the abstract is in english xD
21:43:06 <Ysjoelfir> so... now who can speak japanese?
21:43:20 <rust_collector> di-po ning
21:44:03 <K> nani?!!?!11111
21:45:34 <Ysjoelfir> heh, a friend of mine wanted to learn japanese. lets see
21:47:01 <Ysjoelfir> oof, even the english abstract is hard to read :D
21:47:20 <Ysjoelfir> "The cathodic current efficiency with the use of high frequency was slightly higher than the
21:47:20 <Ysjoelfir> efficiency with the use of low, but details of them were not clearly."
21:47:47 <rust_collector> it says it improved things a tiny bit
21:47:49 <Ysjoelfir> the efficiency was slightly higher than the efficiency with the use of low. Wutt?
21:48:15 <Ysjoelfir> oh I get it now
21:48:57 <Ysjoelfir> hmm... did I read that correct, that the plating is harder that way?
21:49:05 <rust_collector> yes
21:49:06 <Ysjoelfir> "The higher intensity brought out the larger hardness of the deposite in the range of considerablly high intensity side."
21:49:40 <rust_collector> I think it allowed higher currents, so the plating gets platinger?
21:50:16 <Ysjoelfir> oh, and combining stirring and ultrasonics gets even better results. interesting. I always wondered why in all those videos the people never bother to add a stirring pump
21:50:39 <rust_collector> but that was more of a surface finish thing, I believe?
21:51:21 <rust_collector> to avoid standing waves, which leaves lines in the finish?
21:52:20 <rust_collector> next test: can we chrome plate stuff in a blender?
21:52:50 <Ysjoelfir> lol
21:53:57 <rust_collector> I am pretty happy with that picture of hsn, I think I will use that as a background in any screenshots I make
21:59:16 <Ysjoelfir> hm?
21:59:55 <rust_collector> the hsn2teabagging one
22:00:00 <Ysjoelfir> aaah
22:00:31 <rust_collector> I am pretty happy with that. for being my first gimp face swap
22:04:44 <Ysjoelfir> heh. great. I was looking for nickel on ebay to make an electrplating solution. typed in: nickel. go to flat stock category. try to sort out useless results with the advanced search filters. category "material": I have the options to choose between stainless steel, stainless stainless steel, magnesium, not specified and "metal".
22:04:58 <Ysjoelfir> so... what kind of metal is metal?
22:05:21 <rust_collector> nickel?
22:05:48 <Ysjoelfir> lol, nope. that would be way to easy. the 20 results for "metal" in the category "material" were:
22:06:22 <rust_collector> metallica, black debbath
22:06:51 <Ysjoelfir> 5 results for.. erm... those things you have around keyholes. 2 results for nickel plated (at least something) adapters for some plugs. and 2 lamps. https://www.ebay.de/itm/143510708636?hash=item2169e7a19c:g:pYUAAOSwIz5cigFT

22:07:07 <Ysjoelfir> no idea why that is shown in the flat stock category though
22:07:30 <rust_collector> how much do you think you need?
22:07:57 <Ysjoelfir> not much, 2 pieces with 10x10cm maybe, to make a plating solution and use as a sacrificial anode for plating?
22:09:52 <rust_collector> yeah, I guess those battery tab strips would be too small
22:12:30 <Ysjoelfir> well, for making the solution those would be pretty nice I think, but not as the sacrificial piece
22:15:34 <Ysjoelfir> wth, it seems nearly impossible to find a reasonable amount of thick-ish nickel plates in germany. is that stuff so useless that you just don't need it?
22:15:59 <rust_collector> pretty much
22:16:11 <Ysjoelfir> hrmpf
22:16:54 <Ysjoelfir> lol... found some on amazon.
22:24:32 <rust_collector> you can get stuff... https://www.ebay.com/itm/303992379713
22:24:33 <EEVBot> [Title] - Nickel Plating Solution 250ml | eBay
22:24:52 <rust_collector> not sure how the math adds up there
22:25:04 <Ysjoelfir> that is pretty expensive. I found "the stuff", one liter of it, for 20 on amazon
22:25:36 <Ysjoelfir> which I recently started to pronounce like the word "amazing" is pronounced
22:25:41 <Ysjoelfir> because... reasons
22:25:58 <rust_collector> a-mason
22:26:11 <Ysjoelfir> yes
22:26:57 <Ysjoelfir> I wonder if a thick nickel plating would be suficient as a coating. its not exactly food grade afaik, but....
22:26:59 <rust_collector> hmm, it is raining. enough that my trailer is not leaky enough
22:27:07 <Ysjoelfir> lol
22:27:16 <Ysjoelfir> it should start raining here soon as well
22:29:21 <rust_collector> it is not as hard as chrome, but if you are using it for beans and spices....
22:30:09 <rust_collector> maybe you have to add a sticker, so people don't eat your funnel
22:30:13 <Ysjoelfir> yep. thats what I thought. because.. well, its only a decorative, rust preventing plating
22:30:15 <Ysjoelfir> lol
22:30:43 <Ysjoelfir> maybe I should clearcoat it after plating
22:30:59 <rust_collector> mmmnah, I doubt it

23:19:07 <Ysjoelfir> I don't have a ground as well, but thats because that flat is old

23:19:54 <rust_collector> stop licking the tap, while experimenting with microwave transformers?
23:20:31 <Ysjoelfir> I try to remember that.
23:20:39 <Ysjoelfir> but its ok when I do it with neon transformers, right?
23:20:43 <rust_collector> sure
23:26:25 <Ysjoelfir> good.
23:27:07 <rust_collector> only if it is italian
23:28:22 <Ysjoelfir> oh. then its probably bad.
23:28:46 <rust_collector> yes, only italian taps are good for that
