19:45:11 <EEVBot> [Twitter] - eevblog - RT @AvidCommentator: At first glance you think oh that's not so bad, 5.3% year on year is on the high side but companies can live with that…

19:59:08 <DogWomble> insert greeting referencing the time of day it is in your location here
20:21:18 <Ampera> Good morning
20:21:20 * Ampera kisses Halcyon
20:37:13 * Halcyon slips the tongue in
20:38:08 <Ampera> how are you doing Halcyon
20:38:20 <Halcyon> I'm doing alright how are you?
20:38:25 <Ampera> It's dark and dismal today
20:38:39 <Ampera> getting better at shifting my impreza and doing speedier takeoffs
20:39:04 <Ampera> have gone in the interstate half a dozen times so far, all short journeys though
20:39:19 <Ampera> am also getting hardware together to start going camping
20:40:37 <Halcyon> I'd love to go camping
20:40:48 <Ampera> well yeah, it has the word camp in it, you're all over that shit
20:41:57 <Ampera> I think my goal with camping equipment is to get as many different ways to burn things as possible
20:42:10 <Ampera> I currently have propane, coleman dual fuel, and camp fire
20:42:35 <Ampera> planning on getting more incendiary devices as time, space, and money allow

20:49:02 <Ampera> what do I win
20:50:55 <K> what is that scribble on top?
20:54:39 <Ampera> day
20:55:03 <K> then you win a chicken.
20:55:10 <Ampera> can you not read cursive?
20:55:13 <K> congratulations
20:55:22 * Ampera awards K a potato
20:57:31 <K> well, the way the "d" is written is quite skeumorphically-eupmemistic.

21:10:23 * Ampera hugs electrohead
21:10:26 <Ampera> how are you doing electroguy?
21:10:29 * electrohead pops
21:10:50 <electrohead> tired, you?
21:10:57 <Ampera> Awake, but also awake.
21:11:13 <Ampera> have had fun with my Impreza this weekend
21:11:21 <electrohead> oh yeah?
21:11:26 <Ampera> as much as you wished it upon me, i have yet to explode the clutch
21:11:32 <Ampera> but I've taken it on the interstate half a dozen times or so
21:11:35 <electrohead> lmao
21:11:40 <Ampera> drove it into Albany, which was hell
21:11:40 <electrohead> hell yeah :p
21:12:00 <Ampera> My shifts and starts are getting smoother too
21:12:07 <electrohead> \o/
21:12:18 <Ampera> half of them are still a bit jerky, but the other half can be pretty butter
21:12:30 <electrohead> that's what she said

22:38:46 * Ysjoelfir just read the log and now has the badgerbadgerbadger song in his head again
22:38:55 <Ampera> mushroom mushroom
22:39:00 * Ampera launches a snake at Ysjoelfir
22:39:05 <Ysjoelfir> snaaaaaaaaake, its a snaaaaaaaaake
22:39:17 <Ampera> ooooooh it's a snaaaaake
22:39:21 <Ampera> how are you doing Ysjoelfir
22:40:21 <Ysjoelfir> I am existing again, after eating three painkillers as if they were smarties
22:40:44 <Ampera> what kinda smarties do you have in germany
22:40:47 <Ampera> US or UK kind
22:41:02 <Ysjoelfir> whats the difference?
22:41:12 <Ampera> are your smarties a compressed chalk tablet thing
22:41:57 <Ampera> UK smarties are sorta like big M&M's as far as I can tell
22:42:05 <Ysjoelfir> no. they are a pill of chokolate, covered with colored sugar
22:42:14 <Ampera> yeah, we don't have those here
22:42:20 <Ampera> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smarties_(tablet_candy)
22:42:20 <EEVBot> [Title] - Smarties (tablet candy) - Wikipedia
22:42:23 <Ampera> these are smarties here
22:42:32 <Ampera> imagine a tiny tum that tastes like candy
22:42:39 <Ysjoelfir> thats interesting. i have never seen that.
22:42:57 <Ysjoelfir> But I have seen tums. not in germany (except from the misses ex's stuff), but I know them
22:43:15 <Ampera> you guys tend to use alka-seltzer right?
22:43:56 <Ysjoelfir> for example. Bullrichsalz is also a method
22:44:25 <Ysjoelfir> i would prefer the tums stuff though, that stuff at least is not disgusting
22:44:35 <Ampera> aye
22:44:50 <Ampera> Alka-seltzer exists here, but I don't know anyone who actually prefers it
22:45:12 <Ampera> I tend to use both calcium carbonate and famotidine
22:45:33 <Ampera> I have frequent heartburn, but don't want a PPI because they're drugs that are almost impossible to stop taking (at least in my mother's experience)
22:54:55 <Ysjoelfir> the ex-misses ate them (the tums things) as if they were candy, from time to time
22:55:15 <Ysjoelfir> "oooh, my throat hurts soooo much, can you please pass me two tums?"
22:55:19 <Ampera> That's actually not a smart thing to do
22:55:29 <Ampera> I do it too, but I try to keep the amount to a minimum, as it's a great way to get a kidney stone
22:55:44 <Ampera> on the bright side, a calcium deficiency is almost impossible
22:55:51 <Ysjoelfir> very probably, yes xD

23:14:01 <K> oy Ysjoelfir
23:17:04 <jaymax> What's up funnybuns?
23:17:25 * Ampera subtracts jaymax from the running total, and writes him off as a business loss
23:17:45 <jaymax> Wew, tax credit! 😁
23:21:49 <Ampera> how are you doing jaymax
23:22:46 <jaymax> Good weather, feeling good overall.
23:28:38 <Ampera> Good weather is not how I would describe today.
23:28:45 <Ampera> Grey soup is more like it.
