06:26 <rust_collector> yep, you better
07:20 <rust_collector> maybe I am old fashioned, but I would always have something to hold it "down" . using an edge or pins to locate things are fine
15:50 <K> lest it runs for the hills yes
16:02 <rust_collector> pretty much
19:05 <electrohead> !
19:10 <electrohead> no. just no.

49:28 <Ampera> hi electrohead how are you doing
51:13 <Ysjoelfir> oh wow, I finally got my appointment for the vaccination
51:44 <Ampera> Ysjoelfir, 2022 or 2023?
52:18 <Ysjoelfir> njext week saturday
52:26 <Ampera> oh sweet
52:27 <Ampera> which one
52:44 <Ysjoelfir> seems like I'm one of the few who gets moderna
52:49 <Ampera> interesting
52:54 <Ampera> I wasn't sure those were being used in europe
52:58 <Ampera> that's the one my mom got
53:01 <Ysjoelfir> very very few only
53:07 <Ysjoelfir> like, 1.4 percent in germany afaik
53:25 <Ampera> of the pop, or of the people who got vaccines?
53:37 <Ysjoelfir> of the people who get it
53:49 <Ampera> wow, so you're like 1 of 20!
54:18 <Ampera> Hope it doesn't knock you around too much anyways
54:24 <Ampera> the pfizer one fucked me up for a day, which was fun
54:41 <Ampera> that was the second shot, though. The first one was just a sore arm
55:02 <Ysjoelfir> we'll see. I have to get an appointment with my doctor before as well, since they need a letter explaing that I am fat. because.... seems like they have no eyes or whatever
56:06 <Ampera> well you can't blame them, maybe you're actually big boned!
56:46 <Ysjoelfir> well, that would make no difference, as their indicator is the body mass index.
57:06 <Ysjoelfir> bmi over 30 - priority 3
58:19 <Ampera> so the solution is to down on steroids and become a walking wall of muscle, and then get the vaccine
58:48 <Ysjoelfir> yes. that would be a totlaly legit way according to the german "vaccination task force" :D
59:41 <Ysjoelfir> and yes, we have such a thing
59:45 <Ysjoelfir> or, had.
59:46 <Ampera> I had a much more serious, debilitating disability that allowed me to be vaccinated
59:52 <Ampera> I live in New York
00:04 <Ysjoelfir> yikes! I feel with you
00:09 <K> you poor thing
00:54 <K> what is "no", electrohead ?
01:14 <Ysjoelfir> electrohead is just anti
01:20 <electrohead> no!
01:25 * electrohead runs away screaming
01:29 <Ampera> he's a no man
01:43 <electrohead> lol
01:47 * Ampera screams in harmony with electrohead

10:21 <Ysjoelfir> so... I just finished doing my taxes
10:37 <rust_collector> I just finished grilling
11:33 <Ysjoelfir> damn, I hate that so much :D its always the same: you enter basic shit.... result: you get some hundred euros back. next you enter what you made from your self employment - suddenly you have to pay hundreds. next thing you know is you start searching for every bit of shit you bought that can be calculated in your favor
13:42 <rust_collector> you need to be more greek
14:33 <Ysjoelfir> you mean I should just say "no mr. sir, I only had to pay stuff and got nothing back!"?
15:12 <rust_collector> yes
15:27 <rust_collector> I made nothing this year.
15:30 <Ysjoelfir> I think I am to german for that.
15:57 <rust_collector> yes, it seems to be a thing
16:22 <Ysjoelfir> maybe because I am not rich enough to care if I get cought
16:52 <Ysjoelfir> I am so poor that even doing a little fraud would cost me more than I would ever save in 20 years
17:31 <Ampera> Ysjoelfir, do they do paycheck deductions there for taxes?
17:48 <Ampera> Here it's, I believe federally, required that employers take money out of your paycheck and give it to the government for taxes
17:54 <Ysjoelfir> yep
17:58 <Ysjoelfir> roughly 60%
18:02 <Ampera> holy shit
18:20 <Ysjoelfir> erm pardon, you keep roughly 60%
18:33 <Ampera> that's better, but still not awesome
18:51 <Ampera> let me see what my deduction is, which includes things like 401k, and state taxes too
18:53 <Ampera> and some other stuff
19:14 <Ysjoelfir> I recently read that germanistan is (one of?) the land(s) with the highest income tax rates in the world.
19:32 <Ysjoelfir> which is... astonishing, as I always thought that rustyland would be more expensive in that regard
20:47 <Ampera> I pay about 18.75% in deductions
20:50 <rust_collector> I think it averages out to about the same here.
20:59 <Ampera> which includes social security, medicare, 401k, federal and state taxes
21:04 <Lemon> I think I found a nice current clamp with that hall effect thingie you were talking about Ysjoelfir https://www.ebay.com/p/1211851898
21:06 <EEVBot> [Title] - Miller CH7045 DRB III High Current Amp Probe for sale online | eBay
21:29 <Lemon> just for the picture
21:34 <rust_collector> Lemon you probably don't want a high current one
21:40 <Lemon> I found it for 5 euros, with 4 for shipping
21:46 <Lemon> well 200/2000
21:59 <Lemon> for that price...
22:11 <Lemon> I dont know miller tools
22:37 <rust_collector> they at least have a name on it
23:09 <Lemon> it looks of fairly nice quality, seems they do mostly automotive stuff
23:28 <Lemon> I kinda wanted one for this reason, the megane 2 of my mother got a battery draining issue
23:40 <Lemon> maybe I could use it and see
24:21 <rust_collector> YOU DO NOT WANT A HIGH CURRENT CLAMP FOR THAT!!!!
24:40 <K> 2000 AMPS
24:42 <Lemon> but 200 amps ?
24:46 <Lemon> its 200 or 2k
24:49 <rust_collector> you know, use your sensitive voltmeter, and measure the voltage drop across each fuse
25:00 <Lemon> the small one I have is also a 200 amp one, I tried with 500ma and its accurate too
25:37 <Lemon> yes that could work too
27:41 <rust_collector> does it sit for long periods?
28:12 <Lemon> no, thats the weird part
28:22 <Lemon> and the battery is brand new, also
29:05 <Lemon> in the order : drained, we changed battery, new battery, happenned again, mecano (while looking at other issues) said it was lights blabla but lights are off.. he said even off they are draining the battery
30:17 <rust_collector> yeah, just measure the drain, and let it go to sleep, and see how much ot actually drains
30:21 Join: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
30:40 <Lemon> I'll do that when mother comes back, and it stops raining too
30:56 <Lemon> anyway I bought the clamp, for 8.87 euros... its always a nice thing to have, even not for the car
31:02 <rust_collector> leave it off for a good 20 minutes, before you take a real measurement, as they may take some time to go to sleep
32:48 <Lemon> ok thanks
32:55 <Lemon> the card wasnt working
33:05 <Lemon> turns out the battery in it was a 2032, not a 2025
33:14 <Lemon> I noticed it was too big to fit lol
33:22 <rust_collector> the waht?
33:28 <Lemon> a contact moved, so it was easy to fix
33:35 <Lemon> the key card thingie
34:20 <rust_collector> do you have a hotel?
35:26 <Lemon> no?
49:23 <rust_collector> well, that is good, I guess
50:08 <electrohead> it was too big to fit?
50:15 <electrohead> well that's what she said.
50:25 * electrohead walks out of the room, whistling
52:26 * rust_collector grabs his bucket and follow electrohead

34:34 <Lemon> this type of thing, I meant
35:15 <rust_collector> sticking a needle thru a wire does work, yes
35:48 <Lemon> I know yes but more about this type of thing, are they usually too weak, do they work nice etc
35:59 <rust_collector> I have never tried one as small as that, but it should work ok, if you are careful
37:28 <rust_collector> just remember that you probably don't need to stuff it all the way thru, lol
38:04 <Lemon> yeah I know :> maybe it doesnt work with stiffer type of insulators

44:09 <Ysjoelfir> electrohead, want to continue here when you're done?
58:32 <rust_collector> electrohead you should consider that, perhaps you will find some nut-edges

04:56 <Lemon> I mean, its useful
05:04 <rust_collector> uuh. if you say so...
05:10 <Lemon> you can't say "shit, I don't have the right cable" anymore, when you need to charge whatever
05:56 <rust_collector> oh, in your case... you will have some fucking weird thing, that only fits in a special connector from 1942
06:11 <Lemon> yeah well
06:19 <Lemon> at least thats 19 less
06:35 <rust_collector> yep, when do you get it?
07:17 <Lemon> you are always pushing me rusty
07:46 <rust_collector> well, it is a useful thing, and it is not toooooo expensive, you might as well get one, or two
08:35 <Lemon> well at first I was looking for a usb to banana cable, if you want to help me find one on aliexpress
08:51 <rust_collector> no, I always find crap
09:24 <Lemon> actually you are quite good
09:33 <Lemon> I remember when you found the systron donner manual
09:41 <rust_collector> but... that would be just a charging cable, right?
09:46 <Lemon> I scouted the net and found nothing, you got it in a few minutes lol
09:55 <Lemon> yeah usb male/female to banana 4mm
10:00 <Lemon> I'd like both
10:10 <Lemon> well, if its only male or female its fine
10:12 <rust_collector> well, I can find lots of other stuff, but stuff for sale is difficult
10:56 <rust_collector> hmm, you know...
10:59 <rust_collector> let me c

12:44 <Lemon> lemme measure my load, to see if its standard
12:49 <rust_collector> no, you sleep
13:01 <hsn> Or i ll whip u with the cable
13:11 <Lemon> its not sadly
13:28 <Lemon> so I will need cables yeah
13:29 <rust_collector> well, the measurement is not important, but if something similar to that would work.
13:31 <hsn> I ve work tomorrow
13:33 <hsn> Sadly
13:41 <Lemon> yeah it would work
13:50 <rust_collector> I have work too, maybe next week
13:52 <hsn> Ive to wakeup in 6 hours
14:01 <Lemon> I just need to connect whatever in usb to my load
16:15 <Lemon> if not I will make it myself but I'd rather buy a premade cable

26:32 <MrMobodies> Comedy of errors
26:41 <T3sl4> Halcyon: https://www.reddit.com/r/aww/comments/neqn1b/pure_innocence/
26:42 <MrMobodies> I have a USB 3 card on my server
26:43 <EEVBot> [Title] - Pure innocence : aww
27:19 <MrMobodies> I couldn't see what i was doing and I plug a flash drive in the network card port and it stopped working until I restarted - didn't notice and left it in there
27:47 <MrMobodies> then I switched the USB card over and discovered it, when I turned it it stayed on with the fans sped up
28:17 <MrMobodies> nothing
28:24 <MrMobodies> took everything out and it turned out the USB pins were touching the network card bracket as it was hanging low
28:39 <MrMobodies> it reseted some settings to factory defaults
29:00 <MrMobodies> but the logo stayed on despite me setting not to show it until clearing it manually
29:10 <MrMobodies> and one of the SSD'S failed
29:20 <MrMobodies> it fell out when I moved it around
29:33 <MrMobodies> would say that's like a comedy of errors?
30:17 <MrMobodies> all that anger and frustration over nothing but stupidity and carelessness
30:58 <MrMobodies> oh and on defaulting it was booting from the graphics card, and i thought the ESXI hypervisor hanged thinking there was something else wrong with it
31:10 <MrMobodies> when it was giving the graphics card up
31:38 <MrMobodies> I should have labelled the ports on my KVM switch (labels) as that confusion could have been avoided.
32:00 <MrMobodies> both onboard and that is on a HP AF601A KVM switch
32:33 <MrMobodies> it's up on the shelf anyway I connected up a hub like i should have so it doesn't happen again.
33:12 <MrMobodies> has anyone used Open Broadcadst Studio before?
33:40 <MrMobodies> https://obsproject.com/download
33:41 <EEVBot> [Title] - Download | OBS
34:00 <MrMobodies> I am trying to get the timeline up on recordings
34:25 <steve30> i've used it once for a youtube live video
34:33 <MrMobodies> any good?
34:55 <MrMobodies> I want to do some audio streaming with it see what it is like
35:22 <steve30> seemed quite nice to use, except it doesn't support my video capture card so i had to do various work arounds to actually get the video/audio /into/ OBS in the first place
37:04 <MrMobodies> I installed on someone's mac today and it has this apple mac acceleration thing under "streaming" encoder
37:17 <MrMobodies> will look at that but had this annoying issue that does do it on the PC version
37:48 <MrMobodies> on the mac when I size a panel, size another one near it and it expand the one automatically to the largest length
38:14 <MrMobodies> almost like gesturing
39:45 <MrMobodies> I plan to use it for that endoscope i got on Amazon

56:07 <MrMobodies> but I don't did that before, showed a usb cable in a network port.
56:21 <MrMobodies> It was on a Quad port NC375T and i think it might have shorted it out
56:59 <MrMobodies> another thing, I keep on setting the Windows 10 time, with or without daylights and it defaults
58:11 <steve30> I've never put a USB into an ethernet socket by accident before.
59:20 <MrMobodies> well it affect the whole thing, but I didn't know, I just thought, ESXI virtual switch broke, lets restart and it started to work
59:31 <T3sl4> Halcyon: https://gfycat.com/glamorousenchantingflyingfish
59:36 <T3sl4> and Ysjoelfir probs

15:54 <steve30> i just realised I selected the wrong frame rate when doing my latest video. Should have been 50fps but I selected 60fps. Doesn't seem to have made any difference though.
16:24 <MrMobodies> the resolution is locked to something like 1600 instead of 1920
16:35 <MrMobodies> if I attempt to adjust the framerate on OBS the endoscope shuts down
16:48 <MrMobodies> but it works fine with the Desptech viewer
17:05 <MrMobodies> but that seems alright for what I agoing to use it for
17:21 <MrMobodies> 10 fps smoother
18:12 <MrMobodies> the person who came around wanted to know why the video quality of their new Logitech camera was crap on Zoom
18:42 <MrMobodies> I found that to adjust the resolution and over stuff that is business/enterprise
18:58 <MrMobodies> but she said the camera on her Ipad seems crystal clear on zoom
19:02 <MrMobodies> maybe they have different rules
19:08 <MrMobodies> for different devices
19:36 <MrMobodies> she is an artist and wants to run art classes but £120 a year is she get enought students and they pay should be fine I suppose

32:59 <Lemon> and a thin/long needlenose knipex plier :>

33:26 <Lemon> I should get the magic tablet today !
33:29 <Ysjoelfir> I like to use the ancient thing my dad bought 40 or so years ago. that one is nice.
33:46 <Ysjoelfir> knife holder thing I mean

57:52 <Ysjoelfir> afair I paid 25 for that thing back than
58:29 <Lemon> 5 euros ! 8.87 delivered, exactly :>
58:40 <Lemon> I have no idea of the specs, I can't find them online
58:44 <Lemon> but for that price...
58:49 <Lemon> im willing to give it a try
59:02 <Ysjoelfir> yeah, should be absolutely fine to measure the cranking current of a car
59:18 <K> clamp for cranks
01:22 * T3sl4 probes Lemon
01:23 <Lemon> thats exactly what I thought
02:01 <Lemon> and maybe the total consumption, as it got a 200a range, with some luck its accurate on the lower-end of the range like my small one
03:22 * T3sl4 clamps Ysjoelfir with his hugarms
08:17 * Ysjoelfir hugs T3sl4 back :D
11:07 <Ysjoelfir> so.... I send a Fax to our citys company register that I want to change what I do with my self employment. on the 15. of march. still nothing. now I called them, and supposedly they never got it. to bad that I still have the delivery report of my fax machine....
13:03 <T3sl4> a... facks? what are those

15:21 <Ysjoelfir> T3sl4 thats an ancient technology, using the telephone line to transmit data in a dot matrix style. its been generally abandoned everywhere in the world, only a small developing country in the middle of europe, right between france, belgium and the netherlands on one side (yes, we ignore luxembourg, thats to small) and poland and the chech republic on the other still recommends that as the go to medium for communicating with governmental or
15:21 <Ysjoelfir> city authorities, if you need stuff to be done fast and reliable.
16:33 <T3sl4> they had telephones on lines? woow
16:48 <Ysjoelfir> yeah, I know :P
17:12 <T3sl4> wait, there was a time when city authorities did things fast? or reliable?
17:13 <Ysjoelfir> though POTS is dead here for ages, so every fax is also only a datastream over the internet, probably send to some mail inbox.
17:35 <Ysjoelfir> ^ erm, no, there wasn't. I was just exaggerating
17:54 <T3sl4> ah. indeed.
18:14 <Ysjoelfir> :P
18:37 <Ysjoelfir> so... guess what the solution for this was
19:00 <Lemon> oof, a fluke 289 brand new for 180 euros D:
19:00 <T3sl4> a shrubbery?
19:37 <Ysjoelfir> close to the shrubbery, but not quite. they gave me a top secret mail adress that is nowhere visible on the website of said authority. I should send the paperwork there.
19:42 <K> 289 is nice
19:55 <Lemon> for 180 euros, it is yeah
20:32 <Ysjoelfir> the top secret mail adress is, by the way, just (in german of course) [email protected].....
20:38 <T3sl4> speaking of rossmann, it's like when he's trying to figure out new york regulations
20:58 <Ysjoelfir> hah, yeah, I enjoy his rants about that :P
25:39 <Lemon> Ysjoelfir well you asked me what I bought this morning
25:44 <Lemon> might be a fluke 289 XD
27:12 <Lemon> well, that is if the seller is ok
27:16 <Lemon> its not won yet
29:11 * Ysjoelfir hisses at fluke
29:29 * T3sl4 deworms Ysjoelfir
29:41 <Lemon> I called the guy 10 minutes ago, he said he was ok to pay via the website
29:42 <Ysjoelfir> o.o
29:47 <Lemon> and now he wants a bank transfer
29:57 <Lemon> no way im paying via bank transfer
30:08 <Lemon> theres zero security doing that
30:18 <T3sl4> (flukes are also a parasitic worm)
30:41 <Ysjoelfir> oh. I see :D
31:36 <Lemon> hmmm I feel it wont work
31:40 <Lemon> he's a weird guy
31:49 <Ysjoelfir> thats fine, its a fluke
32:12 <Lemon> yeah, a 900 euros fluke top of the line :>
33:41 * Ysjoelfir doesn't like fluke
33:51 <Lemon> because of the price ?
35:12 <K> because of yellow
35:18 <Ysjoelfir> I love yellow.
35:40 <Ysjoelfir> no, because of the price, the look and feel, and because they are just so damn overhyped
36:09 <Ysjoelfir> they are good meters, thats for sure. but everyone goes on and on and on as if fluke would be THE ONLY good quality meter that is out there
36:49 <Ysjoelfir> and, I don't like the displays and the switches. but thats just personal preference
37:20 <Lemon> ha yeah its def not the only good brand around
37:31 <Lemon> I wouldnt buy it new thats for sure, but at 180...
37:36 <Lemon> thats a damn steal
37:48 <Lemon> but I think it wont be a deal
40:59 * Ysjoelfir would try to get a Gossen or HPAK for 200
41:38 <Lemon> yeah well hard to get the same functionnalities
42:08 <Lemon> this 289 is a beast, it got tons of features, including a graph, data logging you can send to computer and so on
42:19 <Lemon> its the second time im trying to buy one, but it seems its impossible lol
42:33 <Lemon> first one was at 120 euros... I talked with the guy, I said I buy it
42:41 <Lemon> and he tells me what ? "sorry a guy came I just sold it"
42:46 <Lemon> not cool
43:27 <Lemon> and the current guy seems weird, he tells me yes for website paiement and now he doesnt answer, seems he only want a bank transfer
43:42 <Lemon> a bank transfer is basically giving him money without any security for me
43:45 <Ysjoelfir> I am pretty sure that most people would not need the graph function of the 289, and without that its just a basic multimeter.
43:56 <Lemon> hehhhh Im not sure
44:05 <Lemon> check quickly a video about it if you can
44:19 <Ysjoelfir> I looked at the fluke website
45:03 <Lemon> I mean, I cant find a single thing he isnt doing (for a multimeter that is)
45:09 <Lemon> sure, 900 euros for that ? no fucking way
45:17 <Lemon> for that I totally agree with you
45:37 <Lemon> but I think if you want something of similar quality, its hard to find one under 4-500 euros new
46:20 <Ysjoelfir> my HPAK ones have data logging finctionality as well, as do they have a dongle thing to connect it either to a phone or to the PC. accuracy and ranges are simmilar. only real big difference I see that I personally would miss is the graphical display, and that wouldn't be worth 400€ price difference for me^^
46:53 <Lemon> how much it cost new ? show me show me !
47:14 <Lemon> also overall it feels quite snappy, and sturdy
47:20 <Lemon> maybe a bit on the big side
47:46 <Lemon> at 180 euros I buy it without thinking twice (especially the fact that its brand new with all accessories) because I can sell it for twice, if not more
47:51 <Lemon> which is also a good point
47:55 <Ysjoelfir> 500-ish https://www.distrelec.de/de/multimeter-digital-1kv-20mhz-500mohm-keysight-u1252b/p/17609409?ext_cid=gpgooaqdede-DSAFeed-ProductSpecific-AllCategories&kw=&gclid=CjwKCAjwy42FBhB2EiwAJY0yQgfY-_j0ajS18CgBXOtCs2xgCO2STVM2HaWH8qqST6NZeWC4wy5khhoCJigQAvD_BwE
48:38 <Lemon> ha yes this one ! its a beauty too
48:45 <Lemon> but yes for 4-500 its ok for me
48:50 <Lemon> 900 nah
48:55 <Lemon> 180, big yes
48:56 <Lemon> xD
49:11 <Lemon> you got two of those right ?
49:18 <Lemon> I remember you told me you bought them for almost nothing
50:27 <K> 200 eur for a fluke 289 is a good deal any way you look at it
50:45 <K> if you already do not own such a thing
52:08 <Lemon> nah I only have oldies and a fluke 101 lol
52:17 <Lemon> well, a 27/FM coming, which will be my main dmm
52:27 <Lemon> I didnt plan on buying a 289, but shit
52:33 <Lemon> if I can get it at that price, im happy
52:42 <Lemon> but I guess not
52:54 <Ysjoelfir> Lemon, yes I have 2 of those and 2 U1242C. got them for 100 for all four.
53:06 <Lemon> damn !
53:12 <Lemon> wanna sell me one ? :P
53:16 <Ysjoelfir> no
53:19 <Lemon> thats a hell of a deal xd
53:41 <Lemon> commonnnn, just a little one !
53:47 <Lemon> a tiny little tiny one
56:26 <Lemon> rahhhh suspense is killing me, I want to know if he accepts or not the deal lol
56:33 <Lemon> im sure at 90% he wont
56:42 <Lemon> its too good to be true
57:49 <Ysjoelfir> I would be willing to sell one of the 1242C, but not for 25€ xD
58:31 <Lemon> lol ofc dude Xd
58:39 <Lemon> lemme check it

04:40 <Halcyon> Oh and I just used normal chicken thigh instead of cutlets, couldn't be bothered with bones
05:13 * T3sl4 noogies Halcyon
05:28 * Ysjoelfir doesn't know what a cutlet is, but would use the only birb leg he can get anyway
06:12 <T3sl4> Ysjoelfir: no, i tend to prefer the frequence of richters to be zero
06:37 <Ysjoelfir> hmm.. it has mustard and peas in it. two things I don't like. I will try that soon anyway :D
06:39 <Ysjoelfir> T3sl4 lol
06:57 <Halcyon> Heya T3sl4
07:03 <T3sl4> but seriously, i guess it's a 1ph VFD? i'd be weary of lack of EMI filtering, and reliability. it probably works, tho anyones guess for how long
07:42 <Ysjoelfir> yep, 1ph to 3ph vfd, 400 watts. I would only use that for testing purposes, not for production or whatever.
08:34 <K> is there even a point of running someting from 3 phases at such low power?
08:54 <Lemon> Ysjoelfir its quite a nice dmm it seems !
10:13 <Ysjoelfir> well... it would run way smoother and with more torque, K. and you could vary the rpms. but as I said, I personally would only use it for testing purposes. like, testing if 3 phase measurement equipment works
10:18 <Ysjoelfir> Lemon, it is
10:21 <Ysjoelfir> and its orange!
10:22 * steve30 wonders what happened.
11:15 <K> ah ok
11:34 <K> i'm tryin to imagina an appliance that would need that
11:40 <Lemon> is it in good physical shape ?
12:02 <Ysjoelfir> mint
12:54 <Lemon> hmmmmrffff
20:58 <Halcyon> Mmmm lemon and mint
20:59 <Halcyon> With vodka
21:10 <T3sl4> and sprinkles

28:46 <Lemon> im really happy about that fiskars blade holder
28:56 <Lemon> it cut so well
29:04 <Lemon> looking at it is enough to cut yourself
30:14 <T3sl4> you might say it's a cut above the rest
30:44 <K> :|
31:00 <K> careful with frenchies and their cutting implements
31:22 <Lemon> badum tssss !
31:26 <T3sl4> don't get frenched!
31:33 <Lemon> nah for real I recommend it, for 8 euros its a steal
31:36 <K> next thing you'll know will be how basket looks from inside
31:49 <Lemon> quite ergonomic, and the blade cant move at all

47:13 <Ysjoelfir> mornings
47:13 <steve30> o/
47:13 <Watcher> morning
47:13 <Ysjoelfir> So I woke up today, went out of the bedroom to be greeted by the smell of disgusting cat pee so intense that its nearly making me vomit. turned out that SOMEONE decided that this towel, that dropped over night from the shower wall, is a perfect makeshift litterbox.
47:13 <Ysjoelfir> and how were your mornings?
47:13 <Kuschelpony> sooo, one more reason to avoid the paket service Hermes
47:13 <Kuschelpony> they did deliver the paket yesterday, we just found it in the garden (rainy thunderstorm)
47:13 <steve30> Maybe you need to teach the kitty how to use the toilet
47:13 <Ysjoelfir> Kuschelpony, imho its easyer to say "oh, one reason to use it", you will be done mentioning the reasons way faster this way
47:13 <steve30> Kuschelpony, i had UPS leave a package by the front door all night in the rain a few months ago.
47:13 <Kuschelpony> well... i did not intend to use it, but the seller did
47:13 <Ysjoelfir> steve30 well... they are tought to do that perfectly fine actually. but both are a bit dumb (incest kittys.. we suspect that they realy aren't the smartest) so some things just don't work always for the stupidest reasons
47:13 <Ysjoelfir> the male cat eg. just decided that litterbox 1 is his personal litterbox, and as soon as the female cat poops into that box he has nowhere to poop, so he poops in front of it. that is a bit bad if mrs. cat decides to poop at 4 in the night and chooses "his" box, instead of the other one that is standing directly beside it. so when mr. cat has his morning poop at 5... meh.
47:13 <Watcher> Kuschelpony: can you not just complain to the company and hope the postman get fired or you get (a part) of your money back
47:13 <Kuschelpony> i consider tzo complain (luckily the contents were entirely waterproof)
47:13 <Kuschelpony> but firsdt i learned that when i order anything again i specify no Hermes
47:13 <Kuschelpony> btw: was a private seller
47:13 <Kuschelpony> oh Ysjoelfir your cats appear to be really complicated
47:13 <Kuschelpony> almost like humans
47:13 <Ysjoelfir> they are mostly easy to deal with, but.... from time to time they are total dickheads

38:10 <Ysjoelfir> that specific one died with a bang some months later as far as I read in his videos somewhere. so... meh :D
38:17 <Ysjoelfir> I think I go with that one https://www.ebay.de/itm/133681744340?epid=625516634&hash=item1f200d89d4%3Ag%3AN4wAAOSw4BVgP6EP&LH_BIN=1

38:57 <Ysjoelfir> or just build a rotary converter
39:14 <Ysjoelfir> which would probably be way more expensive and useless since I just need it for testing purposes
40:25 <rust_collector> Ysjoelfir do you have 3 phase?
40:32 <Ysjoelfir> no.
40:35 <rust_collector> oh
40:46 <Ysjoelfir> yes.
42:08 <rust_collector> ok, then i won't do anything
42:15 <Ysjoelfir> lol
42:45 <rust_collector> mine only does the frequency part, it does not make more phases
44:17 <Ysjoelfir> yeah, thats the problem. I need 3 phases for testing purposes to check a 3 phase power meter. I don't need much power on that, a few watts are more than enough. but I have only one phase, so..... meh :D
44:33 * Halcyon lends Ysjoelfir another two phases
44:40 <Ysjoelfir> thats so nice of you
45:02 <rust_collector> have a bucket of australian phases
45:15 <Halcyon> I'll need it back for my air conditioning and other circuits

48:51 <Halcyon> Also, good morning
49:20 <Ampera> why are you like this
49:21 <rust_collector> I still wonder if steaming earbuds would melt ear wax out of them...
49:38 <Halcyon> But you love cats :P
50:48 <K> why is there wax in them?
50:52 <Ampera> corporate IT randomly told my dad that his work computer was "infected" and that they were taking it from him and refusing to give him a replacement
51:00 <Halcyon> Yeh I was going to say, clean your ears?
51:06 <rust_collector> K people put them in their ears?
51:11 <K> ah.
51:36 <Ampera> our policy here is every four years we get a new machine, and then get to keep the old one (at work, not personally), so their excuse is he wasn't supposed to have more than one computer, because he had an old box laying around
51:44 <Ampera> one that was obviously over four years old
51:51 <Halcyon> We take computers if we are investigating someone
52:00 <Ampera> well you're cops, that's your job
52:17 <Halcyon> Yes but even internally
52:18 <Ampera> our IT is just being twerps
52:22 <K> prolly wants to pifler the gpu and mine doggycoins or somth
52:50 <Ampera> this was remedied by local management just deciding to buy him a new laptop
53:18 <Ampera> so he's getting a Precision 7550 with dock
53:20 <K> did he have a decent gpu in there?
53:37 <Ampera> probably not
53:49 <Ampera> these are work computers, they don't need awesome GPU's
53:58 <Halcyon> I'm sleepy
54:03 <Halcyon> I didn't sleep properly last night :(
54:06 * Ampera fires the tea hose at Halcyon 
54:32 <Ampera> I should make some, as soon as my heartburn stops going apeshit
54:44 * Halcyon throws antacid at Ampera
54:57 <Ampera> oh I've been eating calcium carbonate tablets one after the other
55:08 <Ampera> if there is a maximum dosage, it has been thoroughly disregarded
55:45 <Halcyon> You sure it's stomach acid and not a heart condition?
55:59 <Ampera> have you ever had heartburn?
56:09 <Halcyon> Once
56:27 <Ampera> which is why you don't know that is a particularly bizarre statement
56:39 <DogWomble> speaking of things that go ouchie ... my shoulder has been fucking ouchie all day, it's starting to annoy me
56:53 <Ampera> It's a condition, but has nothing to do with my heart, it's my stomach not controlling acid (and where it goes) properly
56:53 <Halcyon> No, it was the advice I got from my doctor, if it doesn't go away with antacids, there could be a more serious issues
57:06 <Ampera> my mom has the same (perhaps even worse) problem, and there is no good solution
57:13 <Halcyon> *shrug*
57:15 <Halcyon> Just saying
57:25 <Ampera> It is more serious, it's just that there's not a whole lot besides invasive and highly expensive surgery to fix it
57:42 <Halcyon> I want a Katsu sammich
58:22 <Halcyon> I burnt my arm pretty bad yesterday :(
58:31 <Ampera> how did you manage that
58:55 <Halcyon> I stupidly leant over a boiling kettle to wipe up something
59:08 <Halcyon> And the soft inside part of my upper arm went into the steam
59:30 <Ampera> It's not easy to burn yourself on loose steam, that's impressive
59:55 <Ampera> especially a burn I'd consider to be "pretty bad"
00:24 <Halcyon> Yeh well, stupid me got too close
00:31 <Ampera> I kinda want a new laptop now
00:41 <Ampera> but I'm waiting for the new macbook pro's to come out before looking
01:13 <Ampera> oh btw Halcyon, my driver's test is on the 15th next month
01:16 <Ampera> hopefully I pass it
01:20 <Halcyon> Hooray!
01:22 <Halcyon> I'm sure you will
01:31 <Ampera> oh and other news, we're lifting our mask mandate for vaccinated people
01:39 <Halcyon> \o/
01:55 <Ampera> some stores are keeping it, but I'm hoping smaller places the type we usually go to lift it
02:03 <Halcyon> Good stuff
02:17 <Halcyon> I guess it will encourage those to get it who are on the fence about it
03:29 <Ampera> I don't think it's a problem of people being on the fence here
03:41 <Ampera> people get quite crazy about that here, and I don't think it's warranted
03:51 <Halcyon> Really? I would have thought you'd have quite a few anti-vaxxers
04:12 <Ampera> most people I know who haven't gotten it either have an actual reason (like freaking the fuck out when in the presence of a needle) or just haven't had the time to get out of work and do it
04:18 <Ampera> I've never met one in my life
04:28 <Halcyon> Neither have I, but they are around
04:50 <Ampera> I think Okie is the closest person I know, and he's a nurse with medical concerns about the risks, not necessarily a fear of vaccines
05:22 <Halcyon> *shrug*
05:31 <Halcyon> I have both of mine and have full 5G reception
05:55 <Ampera> I personally am not willing to harass, berate, or even worse dehumanize people who don't want to take a medication.
06:22 <Halcyon> No, same. But those people then don't also have the right to complain when they aren't allowed to do certain things.
06:29 <Ampera> I think incentives are fine, but none so far that people are excluded from society for refusing (or often not being able) to take the vaccine
06:52 <Ysjoelfir> are you talking about those nano robots they inject into victims arms?
06:53 <Halcyon> There is a very very very very very small percentage of the population that would have an adverse reaction to vaccines. Those are edge-cases
07:25 <Ampera> Why not? If you're literally unable to take it for genuine fear of death or serious injury, you should definitely not be treated as a luddite and discarded by society.
07:43 <Halcyon> I fully support restrictions on air travel or certain conditions applied to those who aren't vaccinated against certain things.
08:04 <Ampera> There are still plenty of people who are sensitive to most injections and medications, or have a psychological problem with injections in general.
08:07 <Halcyon> I don't see how COVID is any different to those other vaccines you need to have to travel
08:23 <Halcyon> Those people are in the vast majority
08:27 <Halcyon> *minority
08:32 <Ampera> I never mentioned air travel, but interstate travel and being allowed to shop and interact with society
08:37 <Halcyon> Most people don't *like* needles, but they'll take them anyway
09:01 <Ysjoelfir> I would agree, if everyone would be able to get the vaccine >NOW<. which is, at least in germanistan not the case
09:07 <Ampera> I'm not sure how much of a minority that is. Vast is an unhelpfully vague and inspecific word
09:19 <Ampera> Everyone who wants a vaccine right now can have a vaccine right now
09:27 <Ampera> even children 12 and up iirc
09:31 <Ysjoelfir> not in germanistan
09:47 <Ampera> well you're a collective consciousness, so don't apply under the term every/one/
10:01 <Ysjoelfir> oh, I forgot, we are the borg :D
10:11 <Halcyon> Anyways I'm going to bed.
10:15 <DogWomble> here in australia, it's being prioritised - those that are most at risk are being given it first (like health workers, border force workers)
10:15 <Halcyon> Nighty night
10:18 <Ampera> you guys put the ass in assimilate
10:21 <Ampera> good night Halcyon
10:24 * Ampera licks Halcyon on the way out
10:33 <Ampera> DogWomble, like any other country
10:38 <Halcyon> DogWomble, also here in Australia, COVID hasn't really been a significant thing for many many months
10:45 * Halcyon licks Ampera's lick
10:54 <Ampera> In NY you still need a particularly debilitating disease in order to get a vaccine
10:58 <Ampera> namely you must live in NY
11:23 <K> they removed all restrictions here
11:34 <K> you want it, you find a place and go get it
11:48 <Ampera> It's been like that since I got mine over a month ago
11:57 <Ampera> and even now it's not even a matter of finding a place that has it
12:06 <Ampera> supply is so good, you can get it in your local pharmacy
12:11 <K> yeah, supply finaly is enough so things are picking up in pace
12:16 <Ampera> even grocery stores with pharmacies are giving it
13:50 <K> self-administer?
16:08 <Ampera> I don't think they let you do that
16:30 <Ampera> but vaccines have been available from most pharmacies for ages, most of them know how to operate a needle
19:54 <K> makes some sense yea

48:38 <T3sl4> i'm fine. lil tired
48:39 <T3sl4> you?
49:01 <Ampera> trying to fix my testing site, since the people responsible for doing that seem to be picking their noses
49:22 <Ampera> trying random things has failed and that's all I know how to do
49:42 <T3sl4> have you tried replacing their nose pick with an ice pick?
50:01 <Ampera> I've tried replacing it with a big dick, but that only made them more distracted
50:09 <T3sl4> ah well
56:17 <K> me hands Ampera "you tried" badge
08:16 * Ysjoelfir wants one of those badges as well
09:56 <K> try again!
10:05 <Ampera> you need to really try to get one
12:24 <Ysjoelfir> I just tried to help mrs. spouse puke, does that count?
14:57 <Ampera> did she get her vaccine?
15:21 <Ysjoelfir> second dose yesterday, yep
15:27 <Ampera> that'll do it
15:42 <Ysjoelfir> \o/
15:50 <Ampera> not for the award
15:54 <Ampera> you didn't try hard enough
15:55 <Ampera> try again
16:00 <Ysjoelfir> awwww
16:08 * Ysjoelfir punches mrs. spouse in the stomach
16:28 * Ampera hands Ysjoelfir "you beat your spouse" badge
17:02 <Ampera> make sure to wear it at all special events
18:24 <Ysjoelfir> thats not the one I wanted!
18:36 * Ysjoelfir puts the badge on top of his nintendo collection
45:07 * T3sl4 pins a sausadge on Ysjoelfir
45:55 <Ysjoelfir> wee
58:38 <K> a wee sausadge
02:32 <Ysjoelfir> a wiener?
02:46 <K> sort of, yes
09:20 <Ysjoelfir> So... you guys remember when I complained this morning about the fax to the city didn't go through?
09:57 <Ampera> ok
10:14 <Ysjoelfir> I was told to send an e-mail as I wrote... and I was immagining that this will take like a few weeks to get sorted out
10:40 <Ysjoelfir> well... they are finished. and actually came back to me three times today to just clarify stuff
10:54 <Ysjoelfir> I am... irritated how fast that worked out oO
11:38 <Ampera> xen is fun
12:15 <Ysjoelfir> but hey, they even wrote it down exactly as I wanted! so now I can do all sorts of stuff without having to comply with various other annoying things, just because I wrote it in a clever way
12:41 <Ampera> I find it cool that your government still uses fax machines
12:56 <Ampera> ours does too, and so do a handful of businesses
13:23 <Ysjoelfir> hehe
13:32 <Ysjoelfir> the fax machine, germanys most loved old tech
14:03 <Ampera> fax machines are old, they predate telephones iirc

26:45 * Ampera throws a breakfast roll at Kuschelpony 
27:10 * Ampera throws some liverwurst too
33:27 <electrohead> o/
33:34 * Ampera hugs electrohead 
33:36 <Ampera> how are you doing electrohead
33:43 <electrohead> I'm alright, you?
33:45 <electrohead> just waking up
35:20 <Kuschelpony> Hallo
35:39 <electrohead> hey mate
35:43 * electrohead offers coffee
37:36 <Ampera> waiting for my testing environment to get fixed, and while I am, working on some Xen VM's
37:51 <Ampera> I was debating putting my DB server on my storage box, but I think I can fit it on my hypervisor
38:30 <Ampera> I should have room for 8 quad core VM's and another 4 dual core VM's (with dom0 taking one of the quad core slots)
38:51 <Ampera> I would love to double the ram in this box though
39:14 <Ampera> though if I spend any more money (and I should not) it'd be on more SSD's
40:30 <Ampera> also this 10GbE link is fast. Everything is effortless on it
40:38 <Ampera> even demanding X tunnels through SSH
45:28 <electrohead> \o/
45:41 <electrohead> how much RAM is installed right now?
45:45 <Ampera> 128GB
46:25 <electrohead> do you have the slots available to add more, or would you have to replace with bigger?
46:35 <Ampera> it's 1/4th full with present size DIMMs
46:53 <Ampera> iirc it's 8GB DIMMs, and can hold up to 32GB DIMMs
46:57 <Ampera> (for a max capacity of 2TB)
48:26 <rust_collector> lalala

50:37 <electrohead> ta-da.

50:47 <Ampera> DDR3, for some reason, ain't cheap
51:00 <Ampera> at least not on ebay
51:21 <Ampera> I imagine it's a know someone with piles of RDIMM's going to waste kinda situation
52:14 <K> Ysjoelfir, what is proper german for "threaded dovel pin" ?
52:52 <electrohead> yeah, that's why I said one a month :P
52:56 <Ysjoelfir> like that? https://www.ebay.com/itm/6mm-M6-x-1-0mm-304-Stainless-Steel-Threaded-Dowel-Pin-Rod-Select-Variations-/264564564594

52:58 <rust_collector> thre... a stud?
53:05 <Ampera> you make it sound like a period, electrohead
53:12 <electrohead> lol
53:32 <K> yea, but 3mm and not from china
53:51 <K> might be too special though
54:03 <Ysjoelfir> hmm.... I would call it Gewindenippel
54:13 <rust_collector> no, they are probably on a shelf in most proper hardware stores
54:22 <K> 3mm ?
55:11 <Ampera> one weird quirk of Xen is its paravirtualized drive devices emulate IDE until you boot into the kernel and load PV drivers
55:12 <rust_collector> well, maybe they would order 3mm ones, I dunno? but in the places who deal with industry, probably in stock
55:24 <Ampera> so it's really slow to boot, but then normal speed when booted
57:03 <rust_collector> K don't you have a mill or lathe? just snip off some 3mm bolts... if you don't need 300 of them
57:38 <K> i have a mill
58:08 <K> but im not sure how precise/consistent is neck diameter of shoulder bolts
58:31 <K> i found a stock of non-threaded mild steel pins
58:42 <K> i guess i could threads on myself
