04:40:07 <rust_collector> there are not enough pictures of countersunk holes on the internet
04:41:36 <Kuschelpony> yeah, but none else has SO smoothed out holes that you cant recognice their shape :)
04:56:34 <rust_collector> that is the trick, when you know you are off by a little bit

05:09:41 <Ampera> There was an inch of sludge at the bottom of my air conditioner when I opened it up
05:12:23 <rust_collector> put it in a bottle, and sell it online
05:13:08 <Ampera> people will just start thinking it's my bathwater and try to drink it
05:13:50 <rust_collector> label it as not bathwater. they will still try to drink it
05:16:02 <rust_collector> you could suggest, in the description, that it could be used to rinse your nose...
05:16:18 <rust_collector> well, good night

05:32:08 <MrMobodies> Hello
05:32:31 <MrMobodies> Just seen Shango66 latest video
05:32:40 <MrMobodies> and look how he talks to his cat
05:32:42 <MrMobodies> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPq%20MsSgLCJ4&t=1235s

05:36:47 <MrMobodies> I like how he got the cat's attension at 2:36 in the video.
05:37:28 <MrMobodies> the cat is looking to me a bit miserable.
05:38:12 <MrMobodies> like it has had a bad day
05:40:41 Quit: Guest69 ([email protected]) Quit: My MacBook has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…
05:42:16 <rust_collector> it has, it just realized it was a cat
06:02:18 <MrMobodies> the way the cat lift it's head was like he told it off for something earler
06:02:30 <MrMobodies> and it looks kind of hurt
06:03:01 <MrMobodies> or as you said, something terrible happened it.... realised it was cat
06:03:40 <MrMobodies> I like how it sat there listening to the music at the beginning
07:26:53 <Halcyon> Morning all
07:27:27 * electrohead rubs on Halcyon

07:27:42 <electrohead> my friend just left to go back home
07:27:50 <Halcyon> Friend?
07:27:57 <Halcyon> You didn't tell me you had a friend staying
07:28:05 <electrohead> yeah, I had a friend over, know him from work
07:28:12 <Halcyon> Army?
07:28:19 <electrohead> no, lol
07:28:29 <Halcyon> Aw that's nice.

08:11:40 <Halcyon> Morning Ampera :)
08:11:53 <Halcyon> Looks very blue Ampera
08:11:54 <Ampera> my morning tea will now be easier
08:12:23 <Halcyon> Yes
08:14:25 <Halcyon> Does it turn red when it's hot?
08:24:53 <Ampera> no
08:25:23 <Halcyon> :(
08:59:04 <steve30> hi
09:01:05 Join: arch ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
09:02:04 <jaymax> That's quite the kettle balls Ampera
09:02:34 * Ampera pets jaymax's large and engorged bollocks
09:03:37 <arch> is it just me, or does anyone else feel like electroboom's videos are crappier and crappier, and he keeps selling out
09:03:41 <jaymax> Yeh my fence is swelling after all this rain.
09:04:22 <jaymax> *shrug* I only started watching Medhi back in February.
09:04:30 <arch> im glad dave doesn't sellout, at least, not directly. not sure if the abundance of his keysight scopes are an indirect advertising campaign, but at least it's not annoying
09:04:57 <jaymax> Dave seems to do well selling his own things.
09:05:34 <arch> yeah, and you would expect that of any competent engineer. they make good money, why bother with 20c from advertising from youtube
09:05:51 <arch> or spamming jlcpcb or some shit
09:06:23 <jaymax> BC has a lot of weird lockdownerism according to the news, so maybe it limited his access to the day job.
09:06:44 <arch> oh right, i forget australia is now a dictatorship
09:06:58 <Ampera> hahahaha
09:07:22 <Ampera> it always has been, they've just been playing it nice so far
09:07:23 <jaymax> Only recently - BC (Britsh Columbia) was a dictatorship this whole time.
09:07:29 <jaymax> Gooooo east coast!
09:07:47 <Ampera> american east coast > all
09:07:58 <Ampera> we actually have people who aren't full on sandwiches here
09:08:01 <jaymax> Not wrong.
09:08:06 <Ampera> at least 3
09:08:31 <arch> pretty soon, australia is going to force its population to wear hazmat suits, kinda like https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/976/cpsprodpb/0214/production/_120523500_kabuluni.jpg
09:09:46 <Ampera> of course, all that murdering innocent dogs and puppies in kennels can get messy
09:09:53 <jaymax> BC since last summer been like https://hips.hearstapps.com/esq.h-cdn.co/assets/15/14/1600x800/landscape-1428006574-fifty-shades-naked-gun.jpg?resize=1200:*
09:10:16 <arch> lol
09:10:18 <Ampera> at least you're ready to fuck 24/7
09:10:32 <Ampera> problem is you have to go head first
09:10:39 <jaymax> I'm not - I'm east coast lifestyle
09:11:34 <Halcyon> What do you mean arch? We're starting to relax restrictions.
09:12:04 <Ampera> you mean you're gonna start using lethal injection instead of guns to murder entire kennels?
09:12:07 <Ampera> nice
09:12:08 <arch> lol
09:12:19 <Halcyon> ?
09:12:46 <jaymax> sudo makemeasammich
09:12:47 <Ampera> you never read of the entire kennel of dogs and puppies that got put to death by law enforcement
09:12:57 <Halcyon> Nope?
09:13:14 <Ampera> https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2021/08/23/australian-government-kills-rescue-dogs-covid/8246386002/
09:13:15 <EEVBot> [Title] - Rescue dogs killed by local government in Australia over COVID concern
09:13:29 <Ampera> shot and killed 15 dogs, 10 of which were puppies
09:13:40 <Ampera> no chill, just popped them right then and there
09:13:56 <jaymax> I heard of it momentarily, got more fixated by the kids peppersprayed by cops because of being in a public park.
09:13:59 <Ampera> Looks like it was a council, so I don't know if they count as law enforcement
09:14:02 <Halcyon> Ahhhh the Animal Justice Party, I should have known
09:14:08 <Halcyon> Nah they don't
09:14:15 <Ampera> they still count as government though
09:14:20 <Ampera> so, split hairs how you will
09:14:32 <Halcyon> Also, why is this even news? Kennels euthanise animals all the time for various reasons?
09:14:35 <jaymax> Animal Justice Party - branch of PETA?
09:14:38 <Halcyon> Not just here, but everywhere
09:14:42 <Halcyon> jaymax pretty close
09:14:58 <jaymax> Figures.
09:15:01 <Ampera> The kennels didn't euthanize the dogs, the local government did
09:15:19 <Halcyon> Yes, councils have people who do that too
09:15:22 <Ampera> not only were they euthanized, they were needlessly and brutally euthanized
09:15:25 <Halcyon> Why does it matter who they work for?
09:15:32 <Ampera> it's fucked up
09:15:45 <Ampera> but you defend government there no matter what they do, so what else can I say :P
09:15:46 <Halcyon> Where does it say that?
09:15:53 <Ampera> Say what
09:16:10 <Halcyon> They were "brutally killed"
09:16:25 <Halcyon> Shooting animals is among the most humane way to kill them
09:16:27 <Ampera> "the Bourke Shire Council, located in the northern part of New South Wales, shot and killed 15 impounded dogs"
09:16:31 <Halcyon> Yep
09:16:35 <Halcyon> Which part of that is brutal?
09:16:44 <Ampera> I'm not even gonna debate that one with you
09:16:51 <Halcyon> Good
09:17:08 <Ampera> you're so morally bankrupt it would be like telling a kid why it's not alright to hit people
09:17:11 <Halcyon> Best ban all hunting then, because it's "brutal"
09:17:25 <Halcyon> Why are we talking about kids now?
09:17:38 <Ampera> Best start allowing people to eat cats and dogs, so long as it's humane
09:17:51 <Halcyon> I don't understand your issue?
09:18:01 <Halcyon> Animals were put down... so what?
09:18:04 <Ampera> That dogs were euthanized for no reason
09:18:09 <Ampera> It's not nice when PETA does it either
09:18:10 <Halcyon> Ummm
09:18:20 <Ampera> and not only euthanized, needlessly, and by gunshot
09:18:21 <Halcyon> You know this happens everywhere right?
09:18:33 <Halcyon> Why pick on this very very tiny number of dogs?
09:18:35 <Ampera> Yes I do, but this is a /government/ doing this
09:18:38 <Halcyon> So what?
09:18:42 <Ampera> against the will of the shelter staff
09:18:54 <Ampera> It's a deplorable overuse of power
09:19:02 <Halcyon> So it would have been perfectly find if it was a private organisation?
09:19:05 <Halcyon> *fine
09:19:17 <Ampera> It wouldn't have been as much of an overstep in authority.
09:19:38 <jaymax> It'd be riducuoulsly brutal if shot in the hip or some shit like that - given how precision can be lacking with a firearm, I'd not consider it a humane exit - especially in the numbers that occourred.
09:19:40 <Halcyon> And where does it say it was against the will of the shelter?
09:19:47 <Halcyon> Ampera, you make no sense
09:19:51 <Ampera> "so volunteers at another shelter wouldn't travel to pick up the animals"
09:19:58 <Halcyon> Yep
09:20:06 <Halcyon> Where does it say it was against the will of the shelter?
09:20:16 * electrohead pokes Ampera
09:20:23 <Ampera> Well I'm sure the volunteers weren't going to the shelter to put down the animals themselves.
09:20:24 * electrohead makes Halcyon film
09:20:31 <Halcyon> Ampera, it happens all the time
09:20:37 <Ampera> Not by gunshot
09:20:37 <EEVBot> [Twitter] - eevblog - Oh FFS @MAGIX_INT I upgrade to the new v19 Vegas and within the first 30 seconds I get a red screen of playback dea… https://t.co/K0R55ouIe8
09:20:39 <Ampera> Not by the government
09:20:43 <Halcyon> You just have this anti-government attitude
09:20:47 <Halcyon> Ummm YES Ampera
09:20:49 * jaymax shields self from electrohead
09:20:54 <Halcyon> What do you think Government animal control is?
09:21:06 <Ampera> Most of our shelters and pounds are privately run by volunteer
09:21:15 * electrohead points at jaymax
09:21:15 <Halcyon> It matters not who the person's employer is
09:21:19 <Halcyon> Government or otherwise
09:21:26 <Ampera> I'm done arguing with you
09:21:34 <Ampera> you are not a good nor moral person, and I cannot convince you otherwise
09:21:35 <Halcyon> You are very very stubborn Ampera
09:21:43 <Ampera> You are evil.
09:21:56 <Halcyon> You need to really understand what's going on, rather than just believing everything you read in the news (which gives very little detail)
09:23:04 <Ampera> You don't give a shit, because you love your government, and refuse to see them capable of wrong. You do not care about basic decency or have a respect for life at all.
09:23:22 <Halcyon> Nope
09:23:33 <Halcyon> Everything you said there was completely wrong
09:23:34 <jaymax> I'd say, Ampera - I've grew up deep in the sticks. The quickest exit in an old, sick pet is unfortunately the ten cent solution. My father had to do it twice, and the second time he did it he had his first stroke.
09:23:36 <Ampera> Our government abuses people all the time, and so does yours. The difference is you work for it, and literally rely on your respect for them to make a living
09:23:48 <Ampera> jaymax, but at least you can say it's unfortunate
09:23:53 <Ampera> and those are sick pets
09:24:01 <Halcyon> OK? Now you're talking about abusing people? What has that got to do with the article about animals being put down?
09:24:02 <Ampera> these were perfectly healthy dogs that volunteers were trying tos ave
09:24:14 <Halcyon> Ampera, news flash, it happens everywhere.
09:24:19 <Halcyon> Not ever animal is spared
09:24:21 <Ampera> So does rape and murder
09:24:27 <Ampera> That doesn't make it justifiable.
09:24:34 <Halcyon> *sigh*
09:24:38 <Halcyon> Anyway jaymax, how you doing?
09:25:31 <Halcyon> Oh yay! My MO Drive and disks shipped
09:25:43 <jaymax> Doing well Halcyon. I've got nutritional things to figure out again.
09:25:44 <Halcyon> It's USB as well which is super unusual
09:25:55 <Halcyon> You not feeling well jaymax ?
09:27:06 <jaymax> I'm generally a fatass - I've had shortnotice hunger pangs come up this summer, and now that the heat waves are gone I don't have the humidity to blame that on.
09:27:24 <Halcyon> Hahaha, good of you to be so honest
09:27:35 <EEVBot> [Twitter] - eevblog - RT @thegallowboob: leaving this behind for future tenants to find and freak out https://t.co/Uo5wfHQG0Q
09:27:44 <jaymax> No reason for me not to.
09:28:16 <Halcyon> I probably should get off my ass a bit more than I do now
09:28:25 <Halcyon> One day my metabolism is going to take a dive
09:29:26 <jaymax> I've been moving away from animal protein (due to cost and if I'm going to pay more it may as well be local) and maybe I'm not filling that protein quota with enough legumes.
09:30:20 <Ampera> I need to get a new air conditioner. I took mine apart earlier, and despite cleaning it out, I think the bearing is just shot
09:30:26 <Halcyon> You could try swapping it for Kanagaroo meat. It's fairly cheap and very low in fat and high in protein (provided it's humanely killed of course).
09:30:44 <Halcyon> Although it's very slow-cooked as it tends to be tough
09:30:47 <Halcyon> *best
09:31:03 <Ampera> what is kangaroo meat going to do to fix my air conditioner
09:31:04 <Ampera> you make no sense
09:31:26 <Halcyon> What's wrong with your air conditioner?
09:31:42 <jaymax> I've also have a decent reason to pull back from dairy - while the trick for pangs are things like a spoonful of greek yogurt, I've got to think of an alternative.
09:31:54 <Halcyon> Can't do lactose?
09:31:55 <Ampera> will go between working fine and then making an unbearable grinding racket
09:32:06 <jaymax> kangaroo meat would be the least local for me, saldy.
09:32:11 <jaymax> sadly even.
09:32:23 <Ampera> Eating meat is immoral.
09:32:24 <Halcyon> I thought you were in 'Straya jaymax ?
09:32:38 <Ampera> It's worse than alcohol or drugs
09:32:39 <jaymax> Post sinus drip so maybe a lactose thing
09:33:08 <jaymax> Nah, east of Nothing\ until you hit water.
09:33:16 <Halcyon> Ahh
09:34:23 <Halcyon> I probably should do something light and healthy for dinner. Been having a lot of carbs and heavy foods
09:34:34 <Halcyon> Might do salmon or something
09:34:49 <Ampera> Eating fish is immoral
09:35:01 <Halcyon> Tell that to the jews
09:35:12 <Ampera> Eating Jews is immoral
09:35:26 <jaymax> Maybe my emergency ptotein snack would be pickled eggs.
09:35:27 <Ampera> eating christians is just fine though
09:35:37 <jaymax> Well, one pickled egg.
09:35:40 <Halcyon> You could also try making tea eggs
09:35:56 <Ampera> Eggs are immoral.
09:36:22 <jaymax> I heard weird things about some brined eggs
09:36:27 <Halcyon> ?
09:36:30 <Ampera> Eating salt is immoral.
09:37:17 <jaymax> https://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-urine-eggs-idUSBRE82S0EE20120329
09:37:19 <EEVBot> [Title] - Urine-soaked eggs a spring taste treat in China city | Reuters
09:37:30 <Halcyon> Uhh
09:37:43 <Ampera> Eating urine is moral.
09:37:56 <Halcyon> What the actual fuck?
09:37:57 <jaymax> I ... listen to the Round Table of Gentlemen. Read the article, it gets worse.
09:37:59 <Halcyon> Surely this can't be real
09:38:07 <Ampera> I'd eat one.
09:38:13 <jaymax> Because it's not just *any* urine.
09:38:16 <Halcyon> "Basins and buckets of boys’ urine are collected from primary school toilets. It is the key ingredient in “virgin boy eggs”, a local tradition of soaking and cooking eggs in the urine of young boys, preferably below the age of 10."
09:38:23 <Halcyon> Yeh that just makes it better
09:38:27 <Ampera> nvm
09:38:35 <Ampera> not a pedophile
09:39:06 <Halcyon> jaymax, I've heard of some pretty fucked up shit, but I think that just took it to another level
09:39:51 <jaymax> I find these things out through comedy.
09:39:59 <jaymax> It's probably better that way.
09:40:08 <Halcyon> Yeh well, I suggest using soy sauce, not kids piss
09:40:42 <Ampera> Drinking soy sauce is immoral.
09:41:05 <jaymax> Soy sauce is used ... indirectly.
09:41:20 <Halcyon> Bahahahah, I love this bit "Chinese medical experts gave mixed reviews about the health benefits of the practice"
09:41:24 <Ampera> Murdering someone by proxy of soy sauce is moral.
09:41:25 <Halcyon> MIXED REVIEWS?
09:41:52 <Ampera> I'd say something against the Chinese medical experts, but Halcyon would probably put a hit out on me.
09:42:02 <jaymax> Murdering Ampera? The kids piss out the soy sauce.
09:42:09 <jaymax> OK, NEXT TOPIC
09:42:11 <Ampera> mmm, murdering ampera
09:42:20 <Ampera> that sounds fun
09:42:32 <Halcyon> With advice like that, I'm not sure the words "medical" and "expert" belong in the same sentence.
09:42:45 <Ampera> yeah, it's from the same people who say that the vaccine is safe and effective
09:43:04 <Halcyon> I think those are different people
09:43:12 <Ampera> what you think is dumb
09:43:56 <jaymax> How about this one? https://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/teacher-fired-teens-penis-piercings-article-1.1503747
09:43:58 <EEVBot> [Title] - South African teacher fired after taking teens for penis piercings - New York Daily News
09:44:04 <Halcyon> I could ask the angry lesbian at work, she seems to know more about vaccines than any scientist or medical expert
09:44:10 <Ampera> mmm, school penis inspections
09:44:12 <Ampera> I remember those
09:44:26 <jaymax> It's not that Ampera
09:44:37 <Ampera> was kinda embarrassing, I always got laughed at
09:44:45 <Ampera> guess it doesn't help when it reaches the floor...
09:44:50 <jaymax> "A South African teacher was fired for taking three of his students to get penis piercings."
09:45:07 <Halcyon> I guess it'll do that Ampera when you're laying face down on the floor
09:45:20 <Ampera> well yes, but we were made to stand up during inspection
09:45:37 <Ampera> I remember one year the teacher's ruler wasn't long enough
09:45:45 <Ampera> he made everyone wait half an hour just for him to find a tape measure
09:45:57 <Ampera> he stepped on it once too
09:46:09 <Ampera> was more of a trip though, can't say it was his fault
09:46:24 <Ampera> didn't make it hurt less, but he fell flat on his face for my trouble
09:46:58 <Ampera> Now you know the real reason I don't like being a guy
09:47:01 <jaymax> You need to be careful with that Ampera - maybe get a hose reel?
09:47:04 <Ampera> maybe I should have been born a horse...
09:47:21 * jaymax rides Ampera
09:47:29 <Ampera> I sort of wear it as an inner belt
09:47:30 * electrohead films
09:47:46 <Ampera> I do remember a friend, he went to a different school, but everyone used to call him cheesewheel
09:47:59 <Ampera> "cheesewheel ralph", his was insanely thick, but not that long
09:48:06 <Ampera> so it looked like a small wheel of cheese
09:48:14 <jaymax> Chode
09:48:14 <Halcyon> Who calls their kid Ralph?
09:48:27 <jaymax> Boomers
09:48:35 <Ampera> I guess if someone ever was gonna ride him, they'd have a steering wheel to do it with
09:48:44 <Ampera> I am a boomer
09:48:49 <jaymax> OK
09:48:53 <Ampera> well, if you're in my house and you shouldn't be
09:49:03 <Ampera> I'll boom pretty loud
09:58:52 <Halcyon> jaymax, this looks pretty good: https://www.taste.com.au/recipes/ultimate-5-day-power-salad/ru94p0sk
09:59:00 <Halcyon> Minus the fennel
09:59:12 <Ampera> salad is disgusting
09:59:20 <Halcyon> You're disgusting
09:59:23 <Ampera> you're gay
10:00:02 <Halcyon> Captain obvious
10:01:27 * steve30 pets Ampera
10:01:33 * Ampera hugs steve30
10:01:37 <Ampera> at least you like animals, steve30
10:01:43 <steve30> meow
10:01:49 * Ampera pets the steve30
10:02:23 <jaymax> Interesting - I used to eat power salads, given the broad term nowhere near this combo.
10:04:52 <Halcyon> Hey Steve
10:05:22 <Halcyon> The dressing looks interesting
10:05:27 <Halcyon> I like citrus
10:05:40 <jaymax> Any veggies can be used so long as you end up with a poppyseed dressing on top.
10:06:01 <Halcyon> I might make this tonight
10:06:04 <Ampera> It is almost 2022, another year of hell
10:06:20 <Halcyon> https://twitter.com/thegallowboob/status/1436789954139484161
10:06:23 <Halcyon> Hahaha that's awesome
10:06:28 <jaymax> Avocado, sprouts, chickpeas tended to be my variation. Broccoli would be a consntant.
10:06:36 <Ampera> I wish there was some permanent way to have to no longer experience pain and suffering. Something where I can completely eliminate all of my problems, and be happy
10:06:46 <Ampera> Something instant, permanent, and irreversible...
10:06:51 <Halcyon> All good things jaymax
10:06:51 <Ampera> hrm...

10:07:15 <Ampera> FUCK YOU
10:07:17 <Ampera> I mean hi
10:07:21 <Nothing\> you fuck you
10:07:26 <Ampera> I wish I could
10:07:33 <Ampera> how are you doing Nothing\
10:07:39 <Nothing\> you can with a long, or stretchy enough dong
10:07:42 <Nothing\> i'm doing alright
10:07:46 <Ampera> I don't even want my dong
10:07:51 <Ampera> get it the fuck away from me
10:07:53 <Nothing\> you and me both
10:08:01 <Ampera> massive cock too?
10:08:02 <Nothing\> actually my dong i don't mind, it's my balls i don't care for
10:08:03 <Ampera> damn
10:08:20 <Nothing\> hey lemme ask you something Ampera
10:08:32 <jaymax> Uh-oh ... keep Ampera aay from the paper shredder
10:08:33 <Nothing\> is there any difference between a drag queen and a transexual?
10:08:41 <jaymax> *away
10:08:43 <Ampera> Yes, everything.
10:08:53 <Ampera> a drag queen is just a guy who likes dressing up as a woman
10:09:02 <Nothing\> i mean i always thought they were the same until i saw a very uncomfortable episode of the simpsons where marge becomes a drag queen
10:09:11 <Ampera> as transexual wishes to emulate actually being the other gender through a variety of medical and surgical means
10:09:12 <Nothing\> you also find out sideshow mel is a drag queen
10:09:17 <Nothing\> and smithers (of course)
10:09:31 <Nothing\> yeah, drag queen seems like more of an artistic expression
10:09:36 <jaymax> isn't that a transgender?
10:09:36 <Nothing\> rather than a desire to be a woman
10:09:38 <Ampera> I do not like drag queens.
10:09:47 <Ampera> jaymax, the terms, at least how I use them, are interchangeable
10:09:58 <Nothing\> Ampera, how come? is that like misappropriating transexual culture for their own gain?=
10:10:18 <Nothing\> like they're pretending to be trans for their own benefit
10:10:29 <Ampera> what the fuck is transsexual culture
10:10:38 <Nothing\> because honestly i didn't think there was any difference until i watched that episode
10:10:50 <Nothing\> and it made me realize trans isn't the same as a drag queen
10:11:05 <Nothing\> but at the same time, the episode sorta associate drag queens with being gay
10:11:07 <Ampera> Drag queens can stop being drag queens whenever they want. Transgender people have a considerably larger investment.
10:11:15 <Nothing\> since a lot of the drag queens were gay characters
10:11:23 <Ampera> Drag queens typically are performers and work in shows
10:11:30 <jaymax> I suppose. It's amazing how long I thought "tri-sexual" was a thing.
10:11:36 <Nothing\> ie mr largo, smithers, julio
10:11:54 <Nothing\> it's sad that there's an actual population of gay people on the simpsons now
10:11:58 <jaymax> Due to slang and (maybe) jokes of queer people.
10:12:07 <Ampera> Transgenderism is a proposed and possible treatment of a serious mental disorder
10:12:26 <Ampera> There is nothing, and should be nothing showy or flamboyant about the concept
10:12:39 <Nothing\> jaymax, well in reality there are actually no fewer than 7 genders of human, each of which is required for the conception of a child
10:12:44 <Ampera> and in a perfect world, a transgender individual would be medically and visually identical to a person of the other sex
10:12:46 <Nothing\> Ampera knows what i'm talking about
10:13:11 * Ampera sends Nothing\ to the slaughterhouse
10:13:24 <Nothing\> number 5 plz
10:13:33 <Nothing\> i've really gotta read that again
10:13:40 <Nothing\> but i started reading mysterious stranger yesterday
10:13:42 <Ampera> I recall giving my copy to my mom
10:13:44 <Nothing\> it's a nice short read
10:13:52 <Nothing\> i highly recommend reading it
10:14:04 <Nothing\> even though it's mark twain, it's not as campy as his earlier works are
10:14:19 <Nothing\> it was the last thing he wrote so it's very cynical of the human race and religion in general
10:14:23 <jaymax> Gender is a social concept. Funnily enough those who commonly say that don't realize all the implications of that. Gender gap? Non-eexistent because you can apply for jobs as a man etc.
10:15:12 <Halcyon> Don't get me started on this whole gender gap nonsense.
10:15:12 <Ampera> People like to say that all the time, and I don't think they really understand what they're talking about
10:15:20 <Nothing\> jaymax, so you think outside of social influences, children would grow up to be more gender fluid, for lack of a better term
10:15:38 <Nothing\> that is, no real traits to define them as one gender or another. Or at least fewer such traits.
10:15:52 <Ampera> Ultimately there is a cultural consideration to gender, but that cultural aspect has evolved from specific default sexual perspectives.
10:15:53 <Nothing\> jaymax, i've gotta say that would be an interesting experiment to conduct
10:16:05 <jaymax> More or less. BTW, Dr. Marvin Munroe wnated to try that.
10:16:06 <Ampera> Most of culture, in one way or another, is sexually derived, including dress, talk, mannerisms, profession
10:16:12 <Nothing\> even if i don't agree with your opinion, i think the results would be extremely telling
10:16:27 <Nothing\> of course, the ethics of such an experiment mean it would never be able to be done
10:16:30 <Ampera> In this day it gets a lot more complicated, but that's part of why there is some sort of difference
10:16:43 <Ampera> There is also a matter of sexual perspective, which is how I define, at least for myself, gender dysphoria
10:16:44 <Nothing\> pretty sure it violates at least a couple of items from the nuremburg code
10:17:01 <jaymax> Children experiment with identity all the time, and often get bored with it. Whatever gets reinforced, tends to stick until adulthood.
10:17:32 <Ampera> in that, just like you can only experience sexuality with a sex/gender you are attracted to, people can only experience sexuality in the context of the gender they are
10:17:40 <Nothing\> jaymax, that's a good point. But I think there are other mechanisms which reinforce behaviors in children besides positive reinforcement
10:17:50 <Ampera> For most people that does not mismatch, if you are female, you will experience sexuality from a female perspective.
10:18:00 <Nothing\> jaymax, scratch that, external positive reinforcement
10:18:22 <Ampera> Now, there is no specific definition as to what makes a female vs male sexual perspective different, simply because there is an even spectrum of variance between all the attributions
10:18:27 <Ampera> rather it's more trends and soft logic
10:18:28 <jaymax> Nothing\ oh for sure, and a lot of strife happens because of negative reinforcement.
10:18:34 <jaymax> And trauma
10:18:35 * Ampera keeps talking like nobody is listening
10:18:51 <Nothing\> because there is also internal positive reinforcement in the form of chemical signals that make us feel good when we do something beneficial to our survival, like the pleasurable release of dopamine that occurs after a hearty meal
10:21:06 <Nothing\> you know i was thinking, if everybody on the planet was born with a button that allowed them to get a hit of dopamine that produces a euphoria not unlike cocaine or opiates, but without needing to actually take drugs to produce those feelings, just gotta press a button, I wonder how many people would abuse that button or use it at all
10:21:46 <jaymax> Nothing\ "The Terminal Man" by Michael Cricton anwsers that question.
10:22:15 <jaymax> Poor outcomes for mice as well.
10:22:43 <jaymax> Or rats. They ended up startving themselves because the button/lever was more important to them.
10:22:54 <Nothing\> it's pretty clear that getting messed up is something fundamental to at least mammalian behavior, dolphins have been observed passing a puffer fish around and rubbing it on themselves, then floating upside down, seemingly transfixed by their reflection in the surface of the water
10:23:49 <Nothing\> i've seen lots of videos of animals gather around trees that have dropped their fruit, which then ferment, and animals of all sorts gather at the tree to eat the fermented fruit and get messed up
10:24:03 <Nothing\> or i've seen videos of squirrels eating fermented fruit and getting drunk
10:24:04 <jaymax> But I don't know if it was Rat Park or a different scale rodent experiment that determined the outcome of external pleasure.
10:24:39 <Nothing\> jaymax, yeah i guess such studies HAVE been done on rats/mice
10:25:38 <Nothing\> they've probably even done experiments where they've put electrodes directly in the pleasure centers of the brain to activate them when the animal presses a button. Just like in my thought experiment.
10:26:21 <jaymax> Oucomes of the rat community determined the addictive nature of the rats involved. "Rat Park" used heroin in the water, with another water source not-spiked. https://portfolioofhope.wordpress.com/2021/08/21/the-rat-park-experiment/
10:26:23 <EEVBot> [Title] - The ‘Rat Park’ experiment. – Portfolio of Hope
10:26:28 <Nothing\> i'm 90% certain such an experimen is in the realm of possibility. It just depends on whether we understand those pleasure centers enough to be able to activate them with direct electrical stimulation.
10:26:44 <Nothing\> thanks man

10:27:58 <Nothing\> wanna know the one word you'll never hear on tv?

10:28:10 <Nothing\> TOILET PAPER
10:28:11 <jaymax> shitcunt?
10:28:17 <Ampera> kill gays?
10:28:22 <Halcyon> Nah I've heard shit cunt on TV
10:28:23 <Nothing\> on tv, it's always "bathroom tissue"
10:28:26 <Halcyon> Toilet paper?
10:28:33 <Halcyon> Wha?
10:28:34 <Nothing\> Halcyon, toilet paper
10:28:35 * Ampera murders Halcyon
10:28:45 <Ampera> hrm
10:28:45 <Halcyon> They just say toilet paper here
10:28:46 <Nothing\> in ever single commercial, they refer to it as bathroom tissue
10:28:49 <Nothing\> never as toilet paper
10:28:49 <Ampera> that just means I lost my best friend
10:28:51 <Ampera> best join him
10:28:53 * Ampera commits suicide
10:28:55 <Halcyon> No one calls it "Bathroom tissue"
10:28:59 <Nothing\> Halcyon, look at your package of toilet paper
10:29:05 <Nothing\> see if it says the words anywhere on it
10:29:11 <jaymax> water closet wipes
10:29:12 <Nothing\> i guarantee it'll say it's bathroom tissue
10:29:19 <Nothing\> lol
10:29:31 <Nothing\> yeah it could be an american thing
10:29:40 <Ampera> I hate americans
10:29:45 <Ampera> especially the weird upside down ones
10:29:51 <Halcyon> Mine says "This is not your average toilet paper"
10:29:53 <Ampera> the ones with the kangaroos and communism
10:29:57 <Halcyon> The on the other side it says "Who gives a crap"
10:30:01 <Nothing\> Halcyon, BLASPHEMY!
10:30:16 <Ampera> gonna buy a new air conditioner
10:30:19 <Nothing\> Halcyon, where is "here" anyway? the uk?
10:30:42 <Nothing\> ah
10:30:44 <Nothing\> australia
10:30:48 <Nothing\> i forgot the power of /whois
10:30:55 <Halcyon> Some of the packs are the supermarker say "Toilet tissue"
10:31:08 <Nothing\> autralia: the uk's biggest little brother
10:31:23 <jaymax> That's just a product labeling exercise. Toilets were not the norm in America until the 60's but toilet paper was still sold in large quantities.
10:31:35 <Nothing\> the 60s?
10:31:57 <jaymax> Outhouses outnumbered indoor plumbing
10:32:04 <Halcyon> I buy this stuff: https://au.whogivesacrap.org/
10:32:05 <Nothing\> i'd have figured indoor plumbing became the norm around the 30s-50s depending on how rural you were

10:32:13 <Nothing\> jaymax, interesting
10:32:18 <steve30> Ours says Toilet Tissue.
10:32:36 <Nothing\> steve30, lol see, they're afraid to call it what it is
10:33:06 <steve30> I've heard that americans don't particularly like toilets. For instance, "Going to the bathroom" means you are actually sat on the toilet having a piss.
10:33:09 <Nothing\> it's like the day my american friends challenged me to find the word "pop" anywhere on my soda
10:33:21 <Nothing\> from that day forth i started calling it soda
10:33:28 <Nothing\> even though i'm canadian
10:33:29 <steve30> Whereas here, going to the bathroom would mean you are walking in the direction of said bath room.
10:33:32 <jaymax> Kirklank calls it "Bath Tissue". LIKE IMMA USE IT IN THE TUB
10:33:48 <Nothing\> lol
10:34:30 <Nothing\> jaymax, the 0.04 cents they saved not printing the word "room" is what helps keep the price of it down compared to brand name bathroom tissues
10:34:36 <jaymax> Nothing\ would know what'd it be like to buy "Fish and Chips" south of the border. Battered haddock and a bag of Lays.
10:34:49 <Ampera> I may buy a lucky goldstar one

10:34:56 <EEVBot> [Title] - Sorry! Something went wrong!
10:34:58 <Ampera> looks like a decent option
10:35:07 <Nothing\> jaymax, yeah actually we do call it fish and chips here in canada
10:35:13 <jaymax> Kirkland double wraps and puts full labels on each section.
10:35:17 <Nothing\> we even have chip stands where you can by french fries
10:35:34 <jaymax> We do. That's the point.
10:35:58 <jaymax> Murica hears chips in a meal, and gives you a bag of Lays.
10:36:00 <Nothing\> Ampera, 6000 btu is plenty to cool a single floor of a house-
10:36:09 <Ampera> this is going to be for my bedroom
10:36:12 <Ampera> so that's good
10:36:13 <jaymax> I blame Subway.
10:36:20 <Nothing\> Ampera, oh that's more than enough for a bedroom
10:36:24 <Ampera> With inflation, it's probably about as expensive as the one it's replacing too
10:36:26 <Nothing\> chances are it'll be too cold
10:36:33 <Ampera> and unlike the one it's replacing, has a real thermostat and remote control
10:36:37 <Ampera> good
10:36:42 <Ampera> you can always turn it down
10:36:47 <Nothing\> Ampera, a thermostat's just a switch
10:37:01 <Nothing\> they're stupid things ime/o
10:37:18 <Ampera> It's a bit more than a switch, but what I mean to say is this has a calibrated thermostat
10:37:20 <Nothing\> like, a real thermostat should change the temperature of the air coming out of the unit
10:37:40 <Nothing\> or ideally, they'd have a control for the temperature to turn off the a/c
10:37:48 <Nothing\> and another control for the temperature of the air coming out of it
10:38:10 <Ampera> Air conditioners are designed to be cycled, there's nothing wrong with it
10:38:12 <Nothing\> the worst though is the thermostats on space heaters
10:38:27 <Nothing\> because they put the temperature measuring element RIGHT INSIDE THE FUCKING SPACE HEATER
10:38:34 <Nothing\> every single one of them
10:39:08 <Nothing\> is it really so hard to put it in the plug? or somewhere in the cord away from the box that's spewing out hot air?
10:39:50 <jaymax> Oh there'd be people that'd point it at the outlet and complain it doesn't work.
10:40:18 <Nothing\> yeah human stupidity always makes products worse
10:40:27 <Nothing\> steve jobs is a prime example of that
10:40:46 <Nothing\> then because it was so popular, the good companies were forced to follow suit
10:41:19 <jaymax> I have a half-janky dehumidifier that has a localized sensor - I eventually controlled by Z-Wave and monitor the humidity with a DHT11 sensor in an adjacent room.
10:41:22 <Nothing\> that is, touch screens, and electronics that sacrifice functionality for user friendliness
10:41:37 <Nothing\> jaymax, nice
10:41:47 <Nothing\> i've hot a DHT11 i've been meaning to use
10:42:02 <Nothing\> that does temperature too right?
10:42:05 <jaymax> I never did configure OpenHAB enough to manage it automatically.
10:42:16 <jaymax> It does, Nothing\
10:42:19 <Nothing\> nice
10:42:32 <Nothing\> for some reason i lost all of my to-92 based temperature sensors
10:42:47 <Nothing\> or i could make one out of a diode
10:43:18 <jaymax> I ended up making a portable logger with a second one in a compact CD binder.
10:43:24 * Nothing\ remembers how complicated the diode equation is
10:43:33 <Nothing\> okay maybe i'll just use a resistor
10:44:02 <Nothing\> there's a project for me, make a thermometer out of a resistor
10:44:07 <jaymax> Paired with Arduino and have a Li-ion pack in there.
10:44:19 <Nothing\> tige
10:44:24 <Nothing\> *nice
10:44:50 <Nothing\> man i've gotta get a soldering station
10:45:01 <Nothing\> i feel so crippled not being able to solder
10:45:17 <Nothing\> i mean i have soldering irons, but for some reason the solder sticks to them more than it sticks to copper
10:45:26 <Nothing\> so it's impossible to do anything with it
10:45:30 <jaymax> No display, so I set "reps" with a momentary that is part of the logged file.
10:45:58 <Nothing\> i dunno if it's cuz my solder's old and the rosin core's gone off or if the solder itself has oxidized from its age or what

13:30:28 * Ampera licks Halcyon
13:30:37 <Halcyon> Oh Jordan
13:30:43 <Halcyon> Yeh he's alright
13:30:47 * Halcyon hugs Ampera
13:30:48 <Ampera> I've decided to turn on my air conditioner and just deal with it if it ends up being noisy
13:30:55 <Halcyon> My AA/AAA battery charger arrived!
13:30:56 <Ampera> because it's too fucking hot and humid to be not
13:31:03 <Ampera> NiCd, NiMh, or both
13:31:22 <Halcyon> Both
13:31:45 <Halcyon> Ended up settling for this model: https://mahaenergy.com/mh-c980/
13:31:47 <EEVBot> [Title] - Powerex MH-C980 Charger
13:32:01 <Halcyon> I would have liked a slower charge option, but I'll make do with 1 amp for AA's
13:32:21 <Ampera> I hate AA/AAA's
13:32:34 <Ampera> never liked them even when they were common and accepted rechargeable battery tech
13:32:47 <Halcyon> So do I, but I'm sick of buying expensive ones for stuff
13:32:47 <Ampera> even if it's built in, I will almost always choose a liion cell
13:33:00 <Ampera> none of my equipment uses AA/AAAs, at least equipment I regularly use
13:33:25 <Halcyon> Mines all just remote controls, mice, keyboards, multimeter, things like that
13:33:37 <Halcyon> I ended up buying a bunch of Ikea (made in Japan) AA and AAA cells
13:34:03 <Ampera> I'm kinda wondering why nobody's produced liion cells with circuitry to step down the voltage built in
13:34:10 <Ampera> maybe you just can't get enough power density out of them
13:34:18 <Halcyon> The last set of Lithium AA's I bought cost like $20 for a 4 pack... fuck that in the ass
13:34:48 <Ampera> those aren't liion AA's though
13:34:53 <Halcyon> Yeh not sure Ampera, maybe because people will just stick them in any old charger and possibly burn houses down? I'm not too sure
13:35:01 <Ampera> they're a completely different technology based off lithium metal, instead of a lithium based compound
13:35:05 <Halcyon> No, they were lithium primary cells
13:35:07 <Halcyon> Not rechargables

13:35:32 <Halcyon> I also got little plastic boxes to store them in :)
13:35:41 <Halcyon> Each holds 8 AA or AAA's
13:35:46 * Ampera stores Halcyon in a little plastic box
13:35:56 <Halcyon> :)
13:37:12 <Halcyon> I'm going to run these batteries through a re-condition cycle, who knows how long they've been sitting in the packet for
13:38:29 <Ampera> it would be really nice if my new air conditioner ended up being light
13:38:33 <Ampera> it won't, but it would still be nice
13:38:59 <Ampera> I have a spare aircon I could use, but it's something like a 15,000 BTU machine, and is absolutely massive
13:39:11 <Halcyon> Or you could just quit your bitching
13:39:16 <Ampera> /quit
13:39:22 <Halcyon> Why don't you find out what the rattling noise is?
13:39:28 <Ampera> I took the machine apart
13:39:33 <Ampera> it's probably the bearing
13:39:42 <Halcyon> Oh right
13:39:43 <Ampera> nothing else that could really be causing that
13:39:46 <Halcyon> Is it in old unit?
13:39:49 <Ampera> 10 years old
13:39:50 <Halcyon> *an
13:39:56 <Ampera> and was only a 100 dollar unit when we bought it
13:39:57 <Halcyon> Mmmm so not SUPER old
13:39:59 <Halcyon> Ahh
13:40:00 <Ampera> so it's served its time
13:40:04 <Halcyon> Yeh fair enough
13:40:39 <Ampera> we bought two when we did, and the other one had a broken compressor (presumed, as it wasn't any other electrical components, and was never able to start)
13:40:45 <Ampera> it died years ago
13:40:50 <Ampera> so this one's been running on borrowed time
13:44:11 Join: Tezzers ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
13:44:20 <Halcyon> Oh well, might as well run it until it dies or the noise just becomes unbearable
13:45:00 <Halcyon> Could you physically place the entire unit outside and pipe the cold air in through a makeshift tubey thing?
13:48:31 <Ampera> the noise is already unbearable
13:48:31 <steve30> I like AAs, especially these days as old equipment can use modern LSD NiMH AAs
13:48:39 <Ampera> and no
13:48:47 <steve30> Don't care much for AAAs though
13:48:54 <Ampera> it would be such a monumentally stupid idea, I'd rather just buy a new one
13:50:46 <Ampera> I'm also sure my neighbor wouldn't approve
13:50:52 <Ampera> at the moment it's behaving, but that will not last
13:51:05 <Ampera> it will likely wake me up in a few hours and make me turn it off
13:53:03 <Halcyon> steve30, the only place I use AAA's are in some laser lights I have and remote controls.
13:56:48 * Halcyon misbehaves in front of Ampera and makes him turn him off
13:56:48 <Halcyon> :P
13:57:00 <Ampera> you don't misbehave
13:57:05 <Halcyon> ;-)
13:57:09 <Halcyon> I've been known to
13:57:10 <Ampera> you just pretend everyone else is while you arrest them for it
13:57:20 <Halcyon> Yeh well
13:57:29 * Ampera throws a dinner plate at Halcyon
13:57:49 <Halcyon> I'm actually not a violent person. I can probably count on two hands the number of times I've had to physically fight someone at work. Most times you can talk people down.
13:58:05 <Ampera> I am a violent person
13:58:08 <Ampera> but only on irc
13:58:14 * Ampera punches Halcyon right in the dick
13:58:32 <Halcyon> Harder, faster and do it 50 more times
13:58:32 <Halcyon> :P
14:00:22 * Ampera goes full mike tyson on Halcyon's ass
14:00:24 <Ampera> er, crotch
14:00:30 <Halcyon> I was going to say
14:05:12 <Halcyon> Hey electrohead you dickhead
14:05:17 <Halcyon> Stop ignoring me today :P
14:05:25 <Halcyon> Oh he's probably asleep
14:05:46 * Ampera kisses Halcyon
14:06:01 <Halcyon> I'm guessing these batteries were fairly discharged, they've taken over 500 mAh so far
14:07:16 <Ampera> it is no longer hot in my room
14:07:22 <Ampera> Halcyon, why did you leave
14:07:26 <Ampera> it is no longer hot
14:07:32 <Ampera> you were the hot
14:07:34 <Ampera> now you left
14:07:37 <Ampera> now it is not hot
14:07:41 <Ampera> :/
14:07:46 <Ampera> all my friends are dead
14:07:50 <Ampera> some just don't know it yet
14:07:55 <Halcyon> I never left

19:42:51 <T3sl4> believe that was done by, flash the whole screen for sync and effect, then blank the whole screen except the sprite target, then flash again or maybe that's it
