00:01:13 <rust1> toot toot
00:01:22 * Ampera sneezes a piece of artillery
00:01:29 <rust1> oops
00:03:06 <rust1> I am just enjoying the sounds of the neighbor carrying firewood and stacking it behind the house
00:03:21 <Ampera> nice
00:04:18 <rust1> it is not the most exciting thing, but
00:04:21 * electrohead hugs Ampera
00:04:35 * Ampera kiss-attacks electrohead's face
00:04:42 <electrohead> lol, hey dude
00:04:45 <Ampera> rust1, it is more exciting than going over there and helping him
00:05:28 <rust1> yes, (hesheit)
00:05:36 <rust1> she is wierd
00:05:44 <rust1> or weird
00:07:31 <electrohead> Ampera: hey I'm transferring the minecraft server tar.gz right now, so you can grab it
00:08:15 <Ampera> transferring?
00:08:18 <Ampera> ok
00:09:31 <electrohead> yeah, I don't have a web server here locally in my house, for you to download from
00:10:01 <electrohead> so, need to upload it on a VPS
00:10:27 <Ampera> np
00:10:33 <Ampera> I'll get it set up at some point
00:10:35 <electrohead> besides, my upload maxes at a whopping .. 1.4 MB/s
00:10:45 <Ampera> I'm moving servers, obvious, so it'll be down a bit when I do that
00:10:46 <electrohead> so, I'll spare you the pain :p
00:10:47 <Ampera> whenever that is
00:10:55 <Ampera> lol
00:10:59 <Ampera> *obviously
00:11:07 <electrohead> lol

01:08:07 <electrohead> the manical laugh, heh
01:12:17 <K> welp, he aint be walking for a while, methinks
01:12:50 <rust1> sounds like he will have a bad headache too
01:13:22 <electrohead> yeah I think so too
01:14:38 <rust1> so that is a good use for those little peugeot vans. that is 1 thing. i should write that down
01:15:16 <electrohead> lol
01:17:21 <rust1> but, yes, that laugh is perfect
01:19:22 <electrohead> "muah HA HA HA"
01:19:33 <electrohead> apparently he had some enjoyment in doing that
01:19:43 <rust1> it is a "I mean it" laugh, lol
01:20:17 <electrohead> lol
01:21:23 <rust1> hmm, wife has been mowing the lawn for 10 minutes now, I shoudl go see what she is doing
01:21:36 <rust1> oh, and it stopped
01:21:42 <rust1> forget that then
01:22:00 <K> "the lawn mower broke"
01:22:23 <rust1> it is a tiny 3x5m piece of grass
01:22:56 <rust1> oh, now she started it again, time to investigate
01:23:51 <electrohead> lmao

01:26:35 <electrohead> can't fix stupid, heh
01:36:56 <rust1> reminds me a bit of the guy trying to get his gooseneck camping trailer around the corner of a drive thru. but he needed more speed to drag that big trailer thru

02:10:18 <TheDude> hahaha
02:10:26 <electrohead> lol
02:10:38 * Ampera hugs TheDude
02:10:42 <Ampera> how are you doing Dude?
02:12:08 <TheDude> doing alright
02:12:56 <TheDude> how are you, broseph?
02:13:22 <Ampera> I'm doing fine
02:13:46 <Ampera> this is a stupid question, but would you recommend my visiting Slovenia and/or Croatia next year?
02:14:00 <Ampera> I'm planning on doing a tour of some of Europe and am trying to consider where I want to go
02:15:29 <TheDude> yeah, plenty of nice stuff to see in both
02:15:52 <rust1> Not that I have been in any of those places, but croatia is a lot more touristy, I think?
02:16:07 <TheDude> Croatia is very touristy along the coast during the summer
02:16:10 <rust1> looks nice, but maybe you are not looking for germans
02:16:39 <TheDude> a significant portion of their GDP is summer tourism
02:17:27 <TheDude> but you want to avoid the "party" beaches
02:17:27 <Ampera> I'm not really interested in beaches though
02:17:39 <TheDude> all you find there are nasty chavs from UK
02:17:40 <Ampera> I'm not really sure what I'm interested in
02:17:45 <Ampera> meeting people and doing stuff I guess
02:17:59 <Ampera> cheap food, cheap places to stay, not getting stabbed, seeing things
02:18:24 <TheDude> yeah, you'll find all of that
02:18:45 <rust1> so, you are not going to scotland
02:19:46 <Ampera> I am avoiding islands
02:20:03 <Ampera> I think my thing is, I'd also kinda like to see poland and the baltic countries
02:20:11 <Ampera> and maybe the czech republic
02:20:20 <Ampera> but that's a lot of countries and I might only have 2-3 weeks to plan most of this
02:20:34 <rust1> all of that lines up, it is not very far
02:20:40 <Ampera> I suppose
02:20:40 <rust1> rent a car, and have fun
02:20:55 <Ampera> I plan to take trains, as I'm mildly scared about driving in europe
02:21:07 <TheDude> lmao :D
02:21:09 <Ampera> A lot of the rules and signage is very different, and I'd have to study up
02:21:11 <rust1> okay
02:21:22 <Ampera> and I'm sure shit you can get away with here is a lot harder to get away with there
02:21:38 <Ampera> The only problem with taking a train is I need to pack light and keep a tight watch on my things
02:22:00 <rust1> but you won't need to do shit, because people drive along the road like they are supposed to
02:22:02 <Ampera> but it's probably gonna be way cheaper, especially considering your gas prices are astronomical
02:22:11 <Ampera> rust1, I think that's what scares me the most
02:22:22 <Ampera> I'm not sure how to handle people following the rules and doing what they're supposed to
02:22:46 <Ampera> 50% of driving here is making sure you are in the right place and time to avoid the people doing stupid shit
02:22:47 <rust1> I get that. but you will get used to it pretty quick
02:23:21 <Ampera> I'll eventually do the math and consider how bad it is, if at all
02:23:29 <Ampera> It would be nice to take a friend with me I suppose
02:23:38 <Ampera> would be kinda lonely seeing all of europe with nobody else
02:24:11 <rust1> and, if you was to just drive up the big roads, you do not get to see much. train might be a better idea, in some ways
02:25:53 <rust1> but it does limit you a lot too.
02:26:06 <TheDude> it's a double edged sword
02:26:26 <TheDude> trains are extremely efficient in more modernized cities
02:26:36 <Ampera> I'm probably gonna be bouncing between major urban centers
02:26:44 <Ampera> trains will also probably be faster too
02:26:46 <TheDude> the subway/train in Munich or Berlin for example is awesome
02:27:05 <TheDude> but trains in Slovenia are pure ass
02:27:17 <TheDude> you'd be better off taking a bus, probably
02:27:23 <Ampera> eh
02:27:25 <Ampera> eh
02:27:28 <Ampera> idk
02:27:44 <Ampera> like, one other thing, is that since it is supposed to be a vacation, having half of it be driving sounds like a pain
02:27:52 <Ampera> I like driving, but 3 weeks of driving sounds like a bit much
02:28:09 <Ampera> having to not focus for most of it would be better
02:28:14 <TheDude> oh yeah
02:28:20 <rust1> you can stop here and there. and 3 weeks of sitting on a train is not much more fun, imo?
02:28:24 <Ampera> I suppose that would be better with a friend
02:28:31 <Ampera> rust1, you don't have to focus on driving the train is my point
02:28:38 <TheDude> one piece of advice maybe, because lots of people, asian tourists in particular, screw this up
02:28:42 <Ampera> I can ride a train while sleeping
02:28:54 <TheDude> don't plan on seeing multiple things a day while you're here
02:29:08 <Ampera> now what do you mean by that in particular
02:29:09 <TheDude> because you'll just be rushing everything and it will suck
02:29:19 <Ampera> I honestly have no idea what I'll see
02:29:24 <Ampera> 99% of my ideas are museums maybe
02:29:42 <Ampera> and while there are some really good museums, it kinda sucks to just do museums
02:29:53 <TheDude> yes
02:30:03 <Ampera> I did like seeing bundesliga games when I was last in germany, so that should be an idea
02:30:10 <Ampera> or even lower league games
02:30:17 <rust1> lol, that reminds me of the bus full of asians taking pictures of a construction site, I am almost sure they thought it was the viking grave site a little bit down the road
02:30:21 <Ampera> I saw RWE in 2016 and it was a fun game
02:30:43 <TheDude> well
02:30:57 <TheDude> if you go to Italy, you'll see shitloads of Japanese or Chinese tourists
02:30:59 <Ampera> like, what I love the most about traveling, is being able to meet people I haven't met before
02:31:04 <Ampera> I have 0 interest in Italy
02:31:04 <TheDude> and they will be strapping 2 cameras each
02:31:11 <TheDude> rushing through everything
02:31:20 <TheDude> and taking a shitload of pictures
02:31:23 <Ampera> Besides going to San Marino to say I did, I have no idea what I'd even do in Italy, moreso than any other place
02:31:35 <electrohead> https://securelist.com/cosmicstrand-uefi-firmware-rootkit/106973/
02:31:36 <EEVBot> [url] CosmicStrand: the discovery of a sophisticated UEFI firmware rootkit | Securelist | securelist.com
02:31:37 <Ampera> like, at least Slovenia, Croatia, Poland, Czech, all have nice looking cities
02:31:45 <Ampera> I'm not as much of a fan of Italy
02:32:17 <TheDude> Italy can be very nice
02:32:24 <rust1> you are a good german, hehe
02:32:48 <TheDude> but not being able to speak a word of italian tends to bite you there
02:33:05 <TheDude> because Italians are notoriously bad at speaking anything other than Italian
02:33:55 <Ampera> I speak english
02:33:57 <Ampera> and that's about it
02:34:05 <Ampera> maybe I will try to brush up on my 4 year old's german
02:34:38 <TheDude> in Germany it's rather easy to get by with just English alone
02:34:57 <TheDude> the older folk might not know it that well, but most of the younger ones are reasonably fluent
02:35:05 <TheDude> albeit with a very thick accent :D
02:35:45 <Ampera> oh sure
02:35:48 <Ampera> I've been to germany many times
02:35:58 <Ampera> and I honestly know enough german to, very poorly get my point across
02:36:04 <Ampera> basically mashing english words into german sentences
02:36:14 <Ampera> I think that's what I appreciate about Europe the most
02:36:24 <Ampera> there's so many languages, people in general, aren't assholes about you not speaking theirs
02:36:53 <Ampera> That's why I don't really want to go to a place like Japan, because even though the tourist spots are full of english speakers, there or otherwise, I feel like such an interloper
02:36:58 <Ampera> in Europe, everyone is an interloper so it's ok :D
02:38:14 <TheDude> I want to visit Japan just to dab on all of the short people
02:38:30 <TheDude> :D
02:38:57 <TheDude> on a more serious note
02:39:09 <rust1> I think the most interesting thing about europe, is how small it is. just go have fun, and see where you end up
02:39:14 <TheDude> there's no fucking way that I wouldn't stick out there so fucking hard
02:39:17 <Ampera> rust1, that's kinda the plan
02:39:24 <TheDude> so at that point it is probably best to just embrace it
02:39:34 <Ampera> the thing is in europe, everyone sticks out
02:39:40 <TheDude> nope
02:39:43 <Ampera> for you guys, different countries are like different states to us
02:39:46 <Ampera> but that's the thing
02:39:53 <Ampera> everyone sticks out to the point that it's just normal
02:39:55 <Ampera> you don't even realize it
02:40:00 <TheDude> yeah, no :D
02:40:02 <Ampera> :P
02:40:13 <TheDude> society over here is much more homogeneous than you have it there
02:40:24 <rust1> when dad was in china, he had so much fun, because he could finally look down on people
02:40:38 <rust1> he is not very tall
02:40:40 <TheDude> :D
02:41:13 <rust1> he has also refused to eat noodles after that.
02:41:15 <TheDude> "peasant, bring me nutrition" -your dad, probably, to the waitress
02:42:32 <rust1> he used to buy me a thing, when he was on trips to weird places. when he came home from china, he had bought me.... lego.... lol
02:44:03 <rust1> Ampera do you have any idea of what time of the year you would go?
02:44:27 <Ampera> honestly
02:44:28 <Ampera> winter
02:44:38 <rust1> mkay
02:44:38 <Ampera> maybe even after the new year's rush, like fan-feb
02:44:42 <Ampera> er, jan-feb
02:44:50 <Ampera> I like the cold more than the summer
02:44:56 <Ampera> which, honestly, is probably another reason not to drive
02:44:59 <TheDude> amen to fucking that
02:45:06 <TheDude> but no
02:45:10 <TheDude> driving in snow is fucking fun
02:45:12 <rust1> ok, just bring some good shoes
02:45:36 <TheDude> speaking of which, Ampera, I've probably said this before
02:45:52 <TheDude> but should you visit Slovenia, I'd be happy to show you around if you'd be interested
02:46:58 <Ampera> done
02:47:02 <Ampera> can drive me in your GR86
02:47:05 <Ampera> :D
02:47:14 <Ampera> that's like the entire reason I want to even visit anywhere
02:47:22 <Ampera> meeting people is the best
02:47:27 <TheDude> incredibly unlikely that I'll have it by then
02:47:58 <TheDude> the rough date they have given me is like end of april 2023 :/
02:49:03 <Ampera> ouch
02:50:10 <TheDude> yup
02:51:05 <Ampera> honestly I've been thinking
02:51:12 <Ampera> I'd love an WRX some day if they bring back the hatchback
02:51:26 <TheDude> but Toyota have made the release of that car a proper clusterfuck
02:51:50 <TheDude> there are people that have had their 86s delivered to the dealers
02:52:06 <TheDude> but they can not take them home because the cars are supposedly waiting for something
02:52:21 <TheDude> a last minute software update or some stupid shit like that
02:52:25 <Ampera> lok
02:52:28 <Ampera> er, lol
02:52:32 <TheDude> they give zero information about it
02:52:34 <Ampera> probably some regulatory crap
02:52:43 <Ampera> or they forgot to make the airbags not kill you again
02:52:45 <TheDude> yes, most likely, because they're still selling them in the states
02:53:12 <TheDude> and supposedly they will have shit ready by the end of fucking september
02:53:49 <Ampera> lol
02:53:57 <Ampera> gr8 m8
02:54:13 <Ampera> I still can't understand who would buy a sedan impreza/wrx
02:54:14 <Ampera> whyyyyyy
02:54:34 <Ampera> hatches look cooler, they're more practical, and nobody ever said "oh look at my new hot sedan" :P
02:56:21 <TheDude> I disagree 100%
02:56:32 <TheDude> the hatch version of the impreza looked like ass
02:56:58 <Ampera> imma fuckin murder u :<
02:56:59 <TheDude> https://file.kelleybluebookimages.com/kbb/base/house/2008/2008-Subaru-Impreza-RearSide_SUIMPWRXWAG082_505x375.jpg
02:57:11 <Ampera> fuckin awesome
02:57:11 <TheDude> hideous
02:57:22 <Ampera> make sure to have a spoiler on the top to let people know who you're dealing with
02:57:32 <TheDude> https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/Subaru_Impreza_WRX_STI_-_Blue_%28cropped%29.jpg/800px-Subaru_Impreza_WRX_STI_-_Blue_%28cropped%29.jpg
02:57:38 <TheDude> this looks significantly better
02:57:42 <TheDude> in every regard
02:57:56 <TheDude> though the bronze rims would look good here
02:58:03 <Ampera> disagree
02:58:07 <Ampera> bronze rims good tho
02:58:09 <Ampera> like
02:58:15 <Ampera> who the hell wants a car that looks conventionally good
02:58:21 <Ampera> this is supposed to be a fun car
02:58:24 <TheDude> most people do
02:58:27 <Ampera> it should look insane
02:58:34 <Ampera> it shouldn't make sense
02:58:40 <Ampera> it should make honda drivers feel inadequate
02:58:56 <TheDude> I don't think you need another car for them to feel that
02:59:05 <Ampera> hahaha
02:59:10 <TheDude> :D
02:59:30 <TheDude> the bullshit FWD on the CTR just doesn't sell it to me
02:59:49 <TheDude> AWD okay, RWD good, FWD no
03:00:39 <TheDude> if you want a reasonable FWD for civilized driving, you buy a fucking passat
03:01:04 <Ampera> if you buy a german car because you want a civilized economic car, you're a fucking idiot
03:01:08 <Ampera> german cars are the most expensive cars to babysit
03:01:13 <Ampera> reliable, sure
03:01:21 <TheDude> in your country -.-
03:01:23 <Ampera> but you're gonna get so fucked in the ass from maintenance
03:01:26 <Ampera> hehe
03:01:31 <TheDude> again, in your country
03:01:31 <Ampera> if you want "an car" buy a kia
03:01:43 <Ampera> kia soul is good
03:01:48 <TheDude> half of the cars on our roads are german
03:01:59 <TheDude> volkswagen lives up to its name here
03:02:01 <Ampera> half the cars on our roads are asian
03:02:09 <TheDude> and therefore it's rather easy to find people that repair them
03:02:17 <TheDude> and parts for them, second hand too
03:02:45 <Ampera> the only people who drive german cars are drug dealers here
03:02:47 <TheDude> you don't see that many Toyotas here
03:02:54 <Ampera> Toyotas and hondas are fucking everywhere
03:03:01 <TheDude> I mean they're not uncommon, but you're not going to see them everywhere
03:03:10 <Ampera> F-1/2/350's are a dime a dozen
03:03:14 <TheDude> something like a passat or a golf
03:03:27 <Ampera> then you have people who buy silverados because they're afraid of other questioning their sexuality
03:03:34 <TheDude> I could go to the nearest road and count 20 within a minute
03:04:22 <rust1> as much as I hate vw, they make a lot of sense, if you get a 2005.5 or later passat
03:04:39 <Ampera> VW/BMW/MB makes 0 sense for 99% of people
03:04:55 <TheDude> over there :D
03:05:01 <Ampera> BMW's are driven by douchebag golfers who learned how to drive by shifting into reverse at a stop light
03:05:02 <rust1> bmw and mb, sure. vw is not in that league
03:05:16 <rust1> maybe audi
03:05:18 <Ampera> VW's are rare
03:05:28 <Ampera> audi is BMW for younger people
03:05:33 <TheDude> audi, bmw and mb are sort of the same league, yeah
03:05:55 <TheDude> porsche is one above
03:05:59 <TheDude> vw is one below
03:06:07 <TheDude> and then you have shit tier opel at the bottom
03:06:20 <Ampera> isn't opel GM?
03:06:27 <TheDude> beats me
03:06:30 <rust1> audi is what vw uses to test things, and make a vw, then when thet get too old, they rebadge them to skodas, lol
03:06:35 <Ampera> GM really is shit tier
03:06:45 <rust1> opel was sold to peugeot, iIrc.
03:06:53 <Ampera> we have 0 french cars here
03:06:56 <Ampera> straight up don't exist
03:07:22 <Ampera> I think you can find a 2CV if you look /reeeeeally/ hard
03:07:32 <TheDude> škodas are surprisingly good for the price
03:07:37 <rust1> yes
03:07:41 <Ampera> they were sorta kinda popular when the beetle was a thing
03:08:12 <TheDude> and the tech they put inside works rather well, because it has been extensively tested on more expensive platforms :D
03:08:14 <Ampera> saab used to exist
03:08:17 <rust1> I have a thing for the 4wd version of the 2cv. and the van version
03:08:19 <Ampera> then they didn't
03:08:24 <Ampera> I think 1 or 2 people drive a volvo
03:08:32 <Ampera> they're the people who are too weird to buy a subaru
03:08:44 <Ampera> subarus are driven by assholes or psychopaths (doctors)
03:08:50 <TheDude> you'll see a fair number of volvos here
03:09:38 <TheDude> but speaking of stereotypes
03:10:09 <TheDude> older audis, beemers and mercedeses are usually driven by bosnians/serbs here
03:10:19 <Ampera> haha
03:10:21 <Ampera> I can see that
03:10:26 <TheDude> not kidding
03:10:31 <rust1> pretty much here as well
03:10:46 <TheDude> they will save up to buy a 10+ year old german car
03:11:01 <TheDude> and will then put shit tires on them
03:11:13 <rust1> well, most cars here are 10 years
03:11:19 <TheDude> and will get shafted when something major breaks and needs to be serviced
03:11:44 <TheDude> the average car here is between 10 and 11 years old
03:12:01 <TheDude> like, the official statistic
03:12:38 <TheDude> so they will buy what half of the population will try to get rid of
03:13:18 <TheDude> welp, need to make some food

03:37:52 <Ysjoelfir> evenings
03:38:14 <rust1> true enough
03:39:15 <rust1> Ysjoelfir (yselect) do you have any tips and tricks for taking the train in germany? lol
03:39:39 <Kuschelpony> good evening
03:39:54 <Kuschelpony> rust, what plans do you have (train friend here)
03:40:07 <rust1> nah, i was thinking of ampera
03:40:40 <rust1> I think modern trains are boring. but I really like the old ones
03:42:24 <Kuschelpony> i can tell you stories about the middle old diesel train yeserday
03:42:32 <rust1> ohyes
03:42:44 <Kuschelpony> but you are right, an ICE at 300km/hr is impressive boring :)
03:42:46 <Ampera> I think trains in germany will be great
03:42:53 <Ampera> idk about elsewhere
03:43:19 <rust1> is it the regular br218 or related one?
03:43:22 <Ampera> afaik, deutsche bahn is one of the leading passenger rail operators in the world
03:43:35 <rust1> probably
03:44:04 <electrohead> concrete is mixed and done, for the temporary/mobile antenna mount
03:44:06 <electrohead> yays
03:44:19 * rust1 wohoos
03:44:22 <Ampera> the idea of having competent trains is amazing
03:44:34 <Ampera> that might be the best part of taking the trains, being able to see and use a system that actually fucking works
03:44:51 <Ampera> having roads that aren't full of craters might also be good too
03:44:51 <rust1> don't expect miracles, lol
03:44:59 <Ampera> having a train at all is already a miracle
03:45:03 <electrohead> rust1: I shoved a 2x4 into a 5 gallon bucket, filled with concrete
03:45:09 <rust1> there is that
03:45:12 <rust1> oh, ok.
03:45:13 <Ampera> more than one a day is unheard of
03:45:15 <electrohead> it's more than enough to mount anything on it, since it weighs a fuck ton
03:45:17 <Kuschelpony> oh i did not check the exact series, can only say it was the third generation from looking at the shape of the frontside
03:46:02 <Kuschelpony> i meant boring as in the sense of, you dont feel anything of the speed
03:46:25 <rust1> yes. I just think the old ones had more... uh, soul, I guess
03:46:36 <Kuschelpony> sure!
03:46:48 <rust1> now, they are more like large trams
03:47:00 <Kuschelpony> like the (if i remember right) 612 that i took yesterday from Suhl to Würzburg
03:49:39 <rust1> I do like diesels a lot. but again, the older ones. I like it when you can feel the noise
03:50:07 * electrohead blares dimmu borgir
03:50:10 <electrohead> feel this, rust1
03:50:17 <rust1> which one?
03:50:30 <electrohead> hrmm
03:50:36 <electrohead> any of their songs, really
03:50:40 <rust1> aww
03:52:04 <rust1> wife has a thing for vredesbyrd, but that is because she thought they were singing about some kind of cake
03:53:50 <rust1> but. you know, it is nice pop musik. mom went to see them a couple years ago, but went on the wrong day, lol
03:54:48 <electrohead> lmao

03:59:02 * electrohead hugs Ysjoelfir
03:59:20 <electrohead> rust1: now I'm watching a live show via youtube

04:01:50 <rust1> bm and orchestra was a thing for a while.
04:02:00 <TheDude> still is
04:02:03 <TheDude> and it's fucking awesome

04:07:25 <rust1> ok, I should get done with the thing here
04:07:37 <Nothing\> rust1, you're just trying to avoid me!
04:07:42 <rust1> i know
04:07:43 <TheDude> hah
04:07:45 <Ysjoelfir> The same goes for me
04:07:46 <Nothing\> lol <3
04:07:53 <Nothing\> aw i killed the chat
04:07:56 <TheDude> I know 1-2 songs from each of the bands you just posted :P
04:08:15 <Nothing\> man why the hell are parts of my vision flickering
04:08:22 <Ysjoelfir> I should clean up the dishes.
04:08:24 <Nothing\> i mean i know why but why is it so damn bad all of a sudden
04:08:42 <rust1> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JX68guGkdWs
04:08:42 <EEVBot> [url] Ea, Lord of the Depths - YouTube | www.youtube.com
04:08:51 <rust1> dishes... yay!
04:08:57 <Nothing\> i noticed it yesterday and thought nothing of it, my TV looked like one of those old 30hz refresh rate monitors where you can see it flickering in the corner of your eye
04:09:01 <Nothing\> oooh
04:09:06 <rust1> I still think I want 2 dishwashers,
04:09:06 <Nothing\> speaking of weird electrical things
04:09:32 <Nothing\> the other night while i was wearing headphones and playing my switch, i noticed I can hear some sort of shortwave radio broadcast in my headphones
04:09:52 <Nothing\> something about it must be acting like a sort of foxhole radio, it's super super weak but the fidelity is perfect
04:10:01 <Ysjoelfir> Ampera, the misses asks how long you think you need to set up the server?
04:10:17 <Nothing\> every night the same time i can hear him come on and talk about setting his reverb and stuff like that, apparently calibrating his transmitter for that night's session
04:10:47 <Nothing\> it's weird though it reminds me of how you used to hear cell phone conversations on baby monitors and stuff
04:11:15 <Nothing\> except somehow my Switch and the extension cord on my headphones are making a circuit tuned perfectly to this broadcast
04:11:24 <Nothing\> which must not be very far away if i'm able to pick it up with no amplifier
04:11:24 <Kuschelpony> hello Nothing
04:11:32 <Kuschelpony> nothing: https://www.boesner.com/eli-glow-leuchtpigment-28991
04:11:34 <EEVBot> [url] Etter Art Eli-Glow Leuchtpigment | Künstlerbedarf von boesner - Professionelle Künstlermaterialien | www.boesner.com
04:11:37 <Nothing\> because this IS coming in with no amplification. The volume does nothing for it.
04:11:41 <Nothing\> heya Kuschelpony how ya doing?
04:12:11 <Nothing\> holy crap Kuschelpony
04:12:15 <Nothing\> this is exactly what i wanted
04:12:27 <Kuschelpony> im loking to buy a pack soon
04:12:39 <Nothing\> i was saying months ago how i wanted some glow in the dark paint to play with UV with and lamented that i could only find tape
04:12:48 <Nothing\> and that it's just the green zinc oxide type
04:13:06 <Nothing\> the newer pigments, like whatever they use for this blue are apparently brighter
04:13:33 <Nothing\> Kuschelpony, did you read about the weird glitch i have with the headphones on my Nintendo Switch?
04:13:47 <Kuschelpony> the radio reception?
04:13:51 <Nothing\> yeah lol
04:14:03 <Nothing\> is that something that normally happens still? it seems weird
04:14:37 <Nothing\> i mean i could see if the actual audio circuitry in it was picking something up. But this seems to be something else in the system that's coupling to the audio circuitry after the amplifiers
04:14:40 <Kuschelpony> "normally" when your devices are either poorly shielded or the transmitter is very near

04:14:43 <Nothing\> i don't know
04:15:06 <Nothing\> Kuschelpony, yeah there's a house with a large antenna like a half a block away. I'm willing to bet it's them.
04:15:17 <Nothing\> I'm tempted to knock on their door and see if his voice sounds the same
04:15:22 <Kuschelpony> :)
04:15:33 <Nothing\> then slap him and tell him to change his frequency 10khz or something
04:15:34 <Nothing\> lol
04:15:35 <Kuschelpony> i would also not wonder if its something much smaller right close to you
04:15:48 <TheDude> speaking of music
04:15:56 <TheDude> I found a fun activity
04:15:56 <Kuschelpony> mmh its likely parasitic demodulation so chaning frequency doesnt change anything
04:16:03 <Nothing\> Kuschelpony, well that's the only transmitter looking antenna in the area
04:16:07 <Kuschelpony> try ferrite beads on the cables as a first experiment
04:16:15 <Nothing\> Kuschelpony, either way if it is him i bet he'd be interested to hear about the glitch
04:16:21 <TheDude> you take a song that you like and the thought crosses your mind "whoa, this must be pretty difficult to play"
04:16:29 <TheDude> and then you search for covers on youtube
04:16:42 <Nothing\> maybe one day when i've had a few and not so socially anxious i might randomly knock on their door and just ask about it
04:16:47 <TheDude> and find some obscure channels where the person is extremely skilled
04:16:54 <TheDude> but the video has like 100 views
04:17:02 <TheDude> and then you leave a nice and encouraging comment under it
04:17:10 <Nothing\> Kuschelpony, hey that's a good idea
04:17:11 <Kuschelpony> im somehwat sure its not a lare transmitter-lookingantenna, but some handheld device in the VHF or UHF range
04:17:19 <Nothing\> just wrap the cable around a ferrite bead
04:17:38 <Nothing\> lol here i was trying to move the cable or coil it up or straighten it out to change the inductance to no avail
04:17:46 <Nothing\> it's a very clear signal too, crystal clear
04:17:52 <Nothing\> but incredibly faint
04:18:04 <Nothing\> i wish i knew where my crystal earpiece was. It might come in better on that.
04:18:05 * electrohead offers rice and cheese, with a side of beer and metal
04:18:31 <Nothing\> which, i always thought crystal ear pieces only worked with foxhole radios. I didn't think regular headphones worked. I thought they required too much power or something.
04:18:37 <electrohead> rust1: that link - a bit weird, heh
04:18:41 Join: Erlend^SE ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
04:18:48 <rust1> it is...unusual
04:18:58 <rust1> but that is what those people do
04:19:08 <Nothing\> i always wanted to make a foxhole radio but lamented that i didn't have a crystal earpiece until i fortuitously found one that my brother had from an old shortwave receiver he owned.
04:19:18 <Nothing\> Which had 20 year old ear gunk all over it :(
04:19:46 <Nothing\> i'm upset though, i put it in my parts drawer and now it's not there for some reason.
04:20:09 <Nothing\> i have a habit of deciding to reorganize my parts when i'm pissed up and then i forget where i put them later
04:20:10 <Nothing\> lol
04:20:15 * Ampera hugs Nothing\
04:20:18 <Ampera> how are you do fren?
04:20:23 * Nothing\ hugs Ampera
04:20:31 <Nothing\> i'm doing pretty good, had a nice poop this morning :)
04:20:36 <Nothing\> that's how i know it's gonna be a good day
04:20:41 <Nothing\> how about you?
04:20:54 <electrohead> rust1: yeah for sure, lol
04:20:55 <Nothing\> also <3<3<3
04:20:58 <Ampera> I am goodokay
04:21:06 <Ampera> my fico8 went up to 740
04:21:07 <Nothing\> that's goodokay to hear
04:21:13 <Nothing\> everything's going up
04:21:22 <Nothing\> you're lucky you don't have to pay for food, man
04:21:25 <Kuschelpony> nothing, many years ago i built serious crystal phones, based on protective earmuffs and then inside placing a wall between ear side and foam side. where a large 50mm piezo disc was in a hole in that wall
04:21:37 <Nothing\> it's a lot cheaper in the states for food mind you, but even there prices are going way the hell up.
04:21:43 <Kuschelpony> but as we have no more AM radio it all got useless
04:21:51 <Nothing\> here, it's like $15 for say, a 1kg frozen lasagna
04:22:02 <Nothing\> about $1 a piece for ramen
04:22:04 <Nothing\> yeah $1
04:22:20 <Nothing\> i remember back when my friends in the states bought ramen for 10 cents a pack, it was like 50 cents here.
04:22:33 <rust1> I like scanning thru am on the radio now and then. I get some weird things some times
04:22:45 <Nothing\> Kuschelpony, you mean you built the actual earphones?
04:23:07 <Nothing\> rust1, i noticed the am radio on my stereo goes way down below 540khz
04:23:30 <Nothing\> but thanks to Ampera's reminder i'm gonna get one of those world band radios
04:23:34 <Kuschelpony> nothing, yes
04:23:50 <Nothing\> i woulda last month but forgot. Hopefully I'll remember this month when I get my pittance from the govt.
04:24:02 <Kuschelpony> took noise protection earmuffs and built the piezo discs inside
04:24:20 <Ampera> Nothing\, huh?
04:24:22 <Nothing\> rust1, there are websites that somehow let you use a shortwave receiver just as you would in real life and it actually picks things up (though local to it mind you)
04:24:23 <Ampera> of course I pay for food
04:24:26 <Nothing\> it's still pretty cool though
04:24:28 <Ampera> I've bought all my own food for years
04:24:37 <Nothing\> Ampera, oh i'm sorry
04:24:39 * Ysjoelfir pokes Ampera
04:24:47 * Ampera kisses Ysjoelfir
04:24:48 <Nothing\> i shouldn't have assumed you don't buy your own food because you live with your parents
04:25:02 <Nothing\> see, i'm guilty of the same thing i'm always afraid people are gonna do to me
04:25:13 <Nothing\> assume that because i live with my mum, i must be living OFF OF her as well
04:25:26 <Nothing\> i always try to say i share a place with her, not that i live with her
04:25:47 <Ysjoelfir> Ampera, did you see the misses' request a few min ago?
04:25:48 <Nothing\> i'm genuinely really sorry about that Ampera
04:26:06 <Ampera> Ysjoelfir, ah yes
04:26:09 <Ampera> let me get that going right now
04:26:19 <Ampera> Nothing\, is fine, I'm not offended
04:26:52 <Nothing\> i didn't think you would be. But I respect you so I still owe it to you to give you a genuine apology.
04:27:25 <Nothing\> argh i wish my vision would stop flickering
04:27:32 <Nothing\> this is so annoying. It's not usually this bad.
04:28:34 <Nothing\> it's like everything's strobing or pulsing. Like when you can see your bloodflow in your eyes in the form of dark pulses in your vision. But much faster. Like a monitor with a crap refresh rate.
04:29:06 <Nothing\> man wtf this has been fine for like 15 years now all of a sudden it flares up for no apparent reason
04:31:38 <Nothing\> oh cool
04:31:52 <Nothing\> Ampera, just called the city. They've got a drop-off for old batteries right at the library.
04:31:54 <Nothing\> how nifty is that
04:32:21 <Nothing\> jeez you know what's sad
04:32:34 <Nothing\> i just realized we have more places to drop off dirty needles than we do to drop off old electronics
04:32:49 <Nothing\> actually, a LOT more.
04:34:23 <Nothing\> Ampera, oh you'd be proud of me. It's apparently been so long since i've used facebook that it logged me out. And now I can't even remember my password so I'm not even bothering with it anymore.
04:34:43 <Nothing\> i tried to delete the damn thing but the only documentation explaining how to delete your account was years old and irrelevant.
04:36:34 <electrohead> randomly looking at stuff online, came across this - https://www.ebay.com/itm/224519583880

04:36:49 <electrohead> hrmm, I may travel back in time, and build a blue box, heh
04:41:26 <Nothing\> electrohead, i have something almost exactly like that which came with this surplus radioshack kit i bought years ago
04:41:42 <electrohead> oh?
04:41:52 <Nothing\> lol the kit was $50 and the fanciest thing in it was some jellybean logic ICs
04:41:57 <Nothing\> basically just logic gates
04:42:21 <Nothing\> but it was from a brick and mortar store, i was just getting into electronics and had no ICs or anywhere to get them yet, so I jumped on the chance.
04:42:43 <Nothing\> at that point i was relegated to trying to replicate the function of basic ICs by building RTL circuits on breadboard lol
04:43:13 <Nothing\> electrohead, yeah nothing important about it other than just the fact that i have it.
04:45:23 <electrohead> ahh ok
04:55:01 <Kuschelpony> today i learned: you can grab and move tabs between different firefox windows
04:57:16 <Nothing\> heh yeah i discovered that accidentally in chrome a while back, it's nifty but very clunky
04:57:17 <rust1> WOOHOO! (woodrollover)
04:57:41 <Nothing\> i dunno if it works better in firefox, but in chrome it's never sure if you want it to be its own window, or a tab
04:58:16 <rust1> if yu drag it to the bar, it is in tha bar, if you drag it out of the window, it starts a new window
04:59:17 <rust1> more people should use edge...
05:00:29 <Kuschelpony> i am pretty sure very VERY few people running linux want to use edge
05:00:45 <rust1> yes, they are weird
05:01:40 <electrohead> edge == eww
05:01:49 <rust1> yes, it is good
05:03:41 * electrohead takes away rust1's metal for that comment
05:03:43 <electrohead> lol
05:04:31 <rust1> heh, what does the electrohead use?
05:04:41 <electrohead> palemoon, which is a fork of firefox
05:05:02 <rust1> I miss uzbl, they had the most fun fake error messages at the bottom
05:06:34 <electrohead> last stable release: Oct 27, 2016
05:06:36 <electrohead> lol
05:06:46 <rust1> yes, that is why I say I miss it, lol
05:06:59 <rust1> I do not think it supports https things
05:08:18 <electrohead> maybe early-ish versions
05:08:33 <rust1> hmm?
05:08:41 <electrohead> early-ish versions of TLS and such
05:08:53 <electrohead> also, I notice the numbered links; I use pentadactyl for that

05:09:05 <rust1> eh, not sure.
05:10:12 <rust1> I should nerd a bit more some time. I have not done anyting with computers in a long time
05:12:13 <electrohead> here's what my browser setup looks like:

05:12:27 <Nothing\> electrohead, stop posting pictures of your scrot
05:12:55 <electrohead> Nothing\: scrot is what I use for screenshots
05:13:08 <Nothing\> heh i know i'm just teasing
05:13:15 <Nothing\> that article about the cats though
05:13:16 * electrohead scrots Nothing\
05:13:17 <Nothing\> that's interesting
05:13:40 <Nothing\> i forget what the context was, but just last night somebody in a forum post referred to cats as an invasive and devastating species
05:13:42 <Nothing\> which they are
05:13:55 <Nothing\> they kill billions of small animals years in north america
05:14:06 <Nothing\> especially birds and rodents
05:14:07 <rust1> that is what animals are for
05:14:22 <Nothing\> yeah but they do it to the point where species are getting wiped out
05:14:27 <Nothing\> which hey, i thought only humans did thta
05:14:32 <rust1> nah
05:14:39 <Nothing\> cute cuddly little kitty cats aren't capable of wiping out a whole species
05:14:45 <Nothing\> that's just balderdash and poppycock
05:14:49 <rust1> but, with no cats, there would be peace all over the world
05:14:59 <Nothing\> lol there would be
05:15:11 <Nothing\> less mind control
05:15:31 <Nothing\> like my mom is literally trying to talk to my cat in its native tongue right now
05:15:37 <rust1> that is not a big issue for us, is it? that require things... like a mind
05:16:02 <Nothing\> also whenever she gives my cat water, he makes her give him cold water in a cup
05:16:06 <Nothing\> and she has to hold it for him
05:16:10 <Nothing\> otherwise he'll knock it over
05:16:33 <rust1> I would grill your cat in a few hours
05:16:37 <Nothing\> but he won't drink water otherwise. Unless it's straight out of the tap. Or if you slowly pour a water bottle out for him.
05:16:59 <Nothing\> aw don't say that
05:17:01 <Nothing\> you love kitties
05:17:07 <Nothing\> everybody loves kitties
05:17:08 <Nothing\> it's a fact
05:17:22 <Nothing\> that is, everybody infected with toxoplasma gondii
05:17:31 <Nothing\> ie toxoplasmosis
05:17:36 <Nothing\> you hear that theory?
05:19:17 <rust1> sure.
05:19:31 <rust1> but no, I do not love cats.
05:20:36 <rust1> they are interesting in their sproingyness, (sprunggelenk) but I am pretty happy about our cats being dead
05:24:13 <Nothing\> sprunggelenk, i like that
05:24:29 <Nothing\> although i read it as sprunggelunk at first, which just rolls off the tongue so nicley
05:36:37 <rust_collector> yes, my word mangler is pretty good like that

06:39:21 <Nothing\> electrohead, lucky
06:39:25 <Nothing\> i love a good storm
06:39:42 <Nothing\> we actually had a tornado warning (not watch) here the other day. But I dunno if/where one touched down.
06:39:58 <Nothing\> usually you hear on the news if there was one, even an F0
06:40:20 <Nothing\> actually lately they've even been tracking microbursts on maps.
06:40:26 <Nothing\> at least on the last map i saw.
06:41:23 <steve30> lol, I just found out that Howard Brown has spoken out against Halifax Bank's 'pronoun badges' :D

06:43:43 <Nothing\> i usually hate suggested content on youtube but this actually got a chuckle out of me
06:45:31 <Nothing\> how confusing, i'm trying to determine what version if any of python i should update to from 3.6
06:45:45 <steve30> hehe
06:45:56 <rust1> 2.7
06:46:08 <Nothing\> and the list has 3.8, then 3.9, then 3.10 which you would expect would be the same as 3.1 but i guess trailing zeroes count in version numbers
06:46:51 <Nothing\> frankly i just expected they'd go to 4.0 after 3.9 but i guess they're not ready yet
06:47:56 <Nothing\> i'm pissed that the biggest site for documentation of QB64 just up and vanished out of nowhere
06:48:11 <Nothing\> somebody archived it but it's just a buncha xml stuff that's useless to me
06:48:25 <Nothing\> maybe it's on archive.com or something.
06:49:09 Join: LordGeir ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
06:49:10 <Nothing\> i mean there's lots of documentation built into qb64 like QB had, but it's awkward. Plus it has this "tab" system and i can't figure out how to close the tabs so i just keep getting more and more each time i look at a new subject
06:49:48 <Nothing\> oh that reminds me. I glanced a headline claiming that Google was designing some language that's meant to replace C/C++
06:49:56 <Nothing\> lemme see if i can find the name of it

06:53:13 Quit: LordGeir ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
06:54:14 <Nothing\> weird, python doesn't remove previous versions when you install a new version. Or apparently give you the option to.
06:54:31 <Nothing\> I just noticed I've got 3.6, 3.8 and now 3.10.5 all installed

09:03:27 <MrMobodies> I had a lot of strange things happen
09:03:32 <MrMobodies> like defaulting
09:03:45 <MrMobodies> and when I thought I copied files somewhere
09:03:59 <rust_collector> morning MrMobodies
09:04:15 <MrMobodies> it happened again, turned out to be the "tap to click" turned back on
09:04:32 <rust_collector> heh, are you having some issues?
09:04:39 <MrMobodies> so antry with it. I went checking all the profiles and the template just to make sure
09:04:48 <MrMobodies> that cost me some hours
09:04:59 <MrMobodies> I put the mystery down to it
09:05:06 <MrMobodies> as that is what happens
09:05:13 <MrMobodies> it's like in a car
09:05:31 <MrMobodies> imagine if you had buttons on your steering wheel you couldn't see?
09:05:53 <MrMobodies> they hidden under the plastic and in the way where you grip the steering wheel
09:06:03 <MrMobodies> and if pressed will activate certain functions
09:06:12 <MrMobodies> I think it is a bit like that
09:06:20 <MrMobodies> the gesutres turned on with it
09:06:27 <MrMobodies> and the finger flick stuff
09:06:36 <MrMobodies> I had an external mouse
09:06:49 <MrMobodies> because they are no buttons, the touch pad has desginate parts
09:06:59 <MrMobodies> but you can set touch zones which means
09:07:15 <rust_collector> well, not exactly like that, but volvo trucks have the cruise control just where I put my finger to spin the wheel, which end up with a truck not letting off, when you let go of the throttle, lol
09:07:22 <MrMobodies> the cursor will move on the designated parts for tbe buttons
09:07:30 <MrMobodies> aaaah
09:07:42 <MrMobodies> and it cancels out the action
09:07:49 <MrMobodies> but when my palm went on the keyboard
09:07:54 <MrMobodies> it was touching the touchpad
09:08:11 <rust_collector> touchpads are...eeew
09:08:19 <MrMobodies> and with the "tap to click" "gestures" and flicks turned on that is why all the mystry was happening
09:08:48 <rust_collector> but, did you figure out how to shut that off?
09:08:53 <MrMobodies> I have no idea why it turned back on, it happened in the "administrator" account
09:09:02 <MrMobodies> but not the others and the template profile i am working on
09:09:45 <MrMobodies> some laptops are good with their touchpads when they don't dedicated buttons
09:09:57 <MrMobodies> where I can dedicated the left and right bottom
09:10:00 <MrMobodies> and i can also set it
09:10:05 <MrMobodies> not to mouch in those areas
09:10:20 <MrMobodies> not to *move in the areas
09:10:43 <MrMobodies> so when I move my finger unintentionally on the click side
09:10:58 <MrMobodies> and I touch the top, it won't cancel out my action
09:11:02 <MrMobodies> when I am trying to drag and copy
09:11:08 <MrMobodies> which is why I am using a mouse with this
09:11:51 <rust_collector> I like the clit on the stinkpads, and the touchpad turned off, lol
09:12:19 <MrMobodies> I was agiven an x260 a couple of months ago
09:12:27 <MrMobodies> It has a touch pointer
09:12:36 <MrMobodies> the are problems with the driver
09:12:50 <rust_collector> ooh, 260, that sounds like one I need, lol
09:12:55 <MrMobodies> if I turned off touchpad it causes high cpu utilization and causes the os to hang
09:13:07 <MrMobodies> if I leave the touchpad on
09:13:27 <MrMobodies> when reaching for the pointer my hand gets in the way and it start
09:13:38 <MrMobodies> I disabled the touchpad from the bios
09:13:42 <MrMobodies> and used a generic driver
09:13:45 <MrMobodies> no problem after that
09:13:52 <MrMobodies> MarkC mousefix
09:14:00 <MrMobodies> windows 2000 medium mouse settings
09:14:10 <MrMobodies> to make the acceleration as it was before
09:14:37 <MrMobodies> I find it too sensitive on one axis and too slack on the other for slow movement

09:35:48 <rust_collector> well, I think they make a lot of interesting sounds, without adding an orchestra. it is only a lot of use of regular basic instruments
09:38:33 <MrMobodies> the local pub allowed me to play around with their disco speakers

09:45:58 <MrMobodies> and I prefer to own things
09:46:01 <MrMobodies> than rent them
09:46:14 <MrMobodies> I was comparing to cloud storage and services
09:46:36 <MrMobodies> Like with a camera I would have have the system in house whatever it is and be able to operate
09:46:44 <MrMobodies> not depend on some "cloud" service
09:47:00 <MrMobodies> that will work for "the day" but maybe not tomorrow

09:47:57 <MrMobodies> this country is toooo small
09:47:59 <MrMobodies> oh
09:48:30 <rust_collector> it does not really matter who, but... if somethign like that happened, where would you go?
09:50:45 <rust_collector> russia will not bomb you, unless you are stupid. so I have to put a different name on them, lol.

10:05:19 <T3sl4> tho it's not really a broken reference in the style of the meme, because 1000% prince's light saber would also be purple
10:05:32 <rust_collector> oh, her dad is the grand wizard of the kkk.
10:06:43 <T3sl4> gary gygax? i love that guy!
10:07:11 <rust_collector> they should have more gay police
10:07:34 <T3sl4> yeah what's up with that Halcyon?

10:10:16 <MrMobodies> I had to rinse that thing 4 times to get rid of the iquid bubbles
10:10:40 <MrMobodies> aah interesting Norway
10:11:01 <jaymax> Damn rust_collector , I'm sorry.
10:11:09 <rust_collector> thanks
10:11:17 * T3sl4 currys electrohead
10:11:27 <rust_collector> I might move to doggerland, if they do not stop

10:12:33 <electrohead> curry, noms
10:12:39 <MrMobodies> I see, it is the music they are playing that is not in order
10:13:15 <rust_collector> well, that is my opinion, but I am sure someone has called, and complained about noise, or something

10:16:39 <arch> what do you call those oven timers with the tick-tick time bomb noise with the bell?
10:16:58 <MrMobodies> the chicken looking timers?
10:17:17 <MrMobodies> oh sorry to do with the bomb appearance
10:17:38 <electrohead> so I attempted to start a data collection project - specifically, "attempting" to download the everythings, from radioreference.com
10:18:08 <MrMobodies> how many gb/tb did it run into?
10:18:16 <electrohead> there's no direct way to just view all databases in total, that's the main issue

10:24:19 <rust_collector> zelensky should be happy the brits did not cut his head off yet, lol
10:24:41 <T3sl4> implying ukraine should be as well?
10:24:46 <jaymax> Or is batallion for not trying hard enough?
10:25:10 <rust_collector> ukraine should be happy? no, not really.
10:25:28 <T3sl4> investigated for that thing, that is
10:25:42 <jaymax> Ukraine has long been tired of corrupt leaders
10:26:00 <rust_collector> yes
10:26:26 <jaymax> But shhhh, don't tell the west that.
10:26:54 <rust_collector> and when they finally elect someone... someone from the not east makes something happen, and suddenly they have ... this
10:28:12 <jaymax> I just think of the whole invasion as "bad guys fighting bad guys, egged on by economic hitmen"
10:28:27 <rust_collector> Ok, I guess I have to order caps from large online store
10:28:43 <T3sl4> who was expected for election besides zelenskyy?
10:29:17 <rust_collector> the guy who was elected, iIrc. uuh, wth was he called.
10:29:37 <rust_collector> he was elected for a month, or something, uuh?
10:29:47 <jaymax> People from a dozen other parties that were since arrested for Russain sympathy.
10:29:53 <rust_collector> this is not a great moment for me to try to remember anything
10:30:01 <jaymax> Yats?
10:30:13 <rust_collector> uh, was it... maybe
10:30:23 <rust_collector> iIrc, he lives in russia now
10:30:38 <Ampera> penis
10:30:41 <T3sl4> well, that's been the historic problem right, russian sympathizers and puppets?
10:30:41 * Ampera hugs T3sl4
10:30:44 <Ampera> how are you doing frens
10:30:45 <rust_collector> BOOBIES!!!
10:30:48 <Ampera> YES
10:30:50 <Ampera> BIG ONES
10:30:53 <rust_collector> large-ish ones
10:30:53 <jaymax> The pick by Victoria Nuland back in 2014
10:30:55 * T3sl4 hugs Ampera with a hug
10:31:01 <T3sl4> like a matryoshka doll
10:31:01 <Ampera> oh nice
10:31:02 <Ampera> a hug
10:31:05 <Ampera> :D
10:31:11 <rust_collector> that sounds about right, jaymax
10:33:27 <rust_collector> T3sl4 I would not be so sure about that. I am almost sure russia is not always the big bad ...bad thing.
10:34:12 <Ampera> Russia is like a speed runner, dedicated to breaking their repeating history any% wr
10:34:52 <Ampera> make russia great again is such a trope you could basically describe 80% of russian history with it
10:35:22 <jaymax> The whole not much going on part, right?
10:35:45 <jaymax> The country sure stagnates a lot
10:35:55 <Ampera> like a diaper
10:36:11 <jaymax> Good analogy
10:36:20 <Ampera> yes
10:37:09 <jaymax> Well, it allows itself to be an unbreaking force, at least. Hitler couldn't overtake them, nor Napoleon.
10:37:25 <T3sl4> literally get stuck in the muck
10:37:32 <jaymax> Lol
10:37:51 <rust_collector> you can choose, get stuck, or freeze
10:37:56 <jaymax> Beating invaders with beets
10:38:07 <T3sl4> frozen beets would be pretty rough
10:38:26 <jaymax> Soften up that borscht for later
10:38:42 <T3sl4> is this soup redder than usual? hm, must be nothing
10:38:55 <jaymax> Eat up
10:39:07 <jaymax> It get cold
10:39:12 <rust_collector> you have to put the wet beets into pipes, before winter, so they fit better in the cannon
10:40:34 <jaymax> Also train your bears when food is plenty. They will be your scouts when food is scarce.

10:57:04 <jaymax> It's comparison. Which didn't happen. A historical event was mentioned. So no Godwin.
10:57:14 <jaymax> Godwinless
10:57:40 <Ampera> you don't have to convince me, only yourself <3
10:58:07 * jaymax is only procrastinating sleep
10:58:25 <Ampera> same
10:58:26 <rust_collector> aww, that will take a while
11:05:03 <rust_collector> Ampera don't you need to try nitrous oxide in your car, now that you are used to it?
11:05:20 <Ampera> lol
11:05:23 <Ampera> imagine that as a baby's first mod
11:05:39 <Ampera> I don't plan to mod anything any time soon, but if I would, I'd put in a less awful throttle controller
11:05:57 <Ampera> revmatch on downshift is more luck than timing in that car
11:06:24 <rust_collector> it is not a bad first mod, actually. just start small. it is a pretty "soft" way to get some power,
11:06:50 <Ampera> yeah
11:06:53 <rust_collector> hmm, so, you will probably get it tuned?
11:07:00 <Ampera> but I think I might wait until the warranty is closer to expiring
11:07:06 <Ampera> and the loan payments
11:07:14 <rust_collector> heh. yeah
11:08:06 <rust_collector> I think that thing would wake up pretty well, even with a tiny little 50 shot.
11:08:09 <Ampera> It's an Impreza, it'd be a waste not to do /some/ mods in its life
11:08:21 <rust_collector> eggsackly!
11:08:38 <Ampera> but I'd be happy with a throttle that doesn't take a few seconds to wake up
11:09:00 <rust_collector> I am pretty sure the tuners know exactly what you are talking about
11:09:05 <Ampera> good because I do not
11:09:25 <rust_collector> e-throttle tends to be a bit weird, imo
11:09:38 <Ampera> honestly sometimes it feels like a different engine is in the car depending on where and when
11:09:55 <Ampera> I can be in the 2-3krpm range one day and have no acceleration, and then fly out of there like a stabbed rat another
11:10:10 <rust_collector> oh, yes, that is just that it is a new car, and they are different, because of reasons
11:10:11 <Ampera> I've straight up floored the car before trying to get it to get out of its own way in the past
11:10:34 <Ampera> like, 4th gear, 45mph, foot on the floor, and I'm waiting for something to happen
11:10:54 <Ampera> so I don't even know
11:11:10 <Ampera> it doesn't bother me that much really, but it'd be the first thing I'd improve
11:11:12 <rust_collector> did you just plant your foot, or "roll" into it?
11:11:31 <Ampera> typically I go about half way before realizing nothing is happening, and then go the rest of the way for some moments
11:11:41 <Ampera> eventually it picks up and then figures itself out
11:12:21 <rust_collector> I knew it! you need a turbo. good luck
11:12:35 <Ampera> lol
11:12:52 <Ampera> I plan to play around, but this is stuff to do when I have another car
11:15:17 <Ampera> In lower gears, if I drive it right, I can get some zip out of it
11:15:24 <Ampera> so for all I know I'm just not driving it right
11:15:33 <rust_collector> yeah, that is what gears do, for a tiny while
11:16:05 <rust_collector> when I had an older impreza turbo here, I used to start in 2nd
11:16:31 <rust_collector> but, don't try that, as you have no turbo to load up
11:16:46 <Ampera> already tried it. you just end up slipping more clutch and it makes no sense
11:16:58 <Ampera> have also done it in third on accident before
11:17:15 <rust_collector> it makes a lot of sense if you have a slightly too large turbo, lol
11:17:41 <rust_collector> that was a sort of fun car, but it was very worn out and clunky
11:18:03 <Ampera> this is stuff I could more see myself doing on a 2000 dollar corner lot special
11:18:12 <Ampera> you know, where if I fuck it, I'm not that sad about it
11:18:21 <rust_collector> and, it was not mine, so I did not beat on it seriously
11:18:54 <Ampera> meh throttle response is really the only problem I can say I have with this car. for the money I paid, I do not think I could have gotten a better car
11:19:02 <Ampera> it's great and I love driving it, so there's nothing that needs to change for now
11:19:20 <rust_collector> right. you did good, for a get around car

11:21:43 <rust_collector> Hmm, which makes me wonder how my old turbo is doing. I shipped it to... I think north carolina. then I lost contact with the guy
11:22:13 <rust_collector> electrohed could use that thing
11:23:59 <Ampera> or track down the guy to eliminate him
11:24:17 <rust_collector> nah, he is a pretty cool guy
11:25:01 <rust_collector> I traded that turbo for a wideband o2 sensor/gauge and shipping both ways.
11:25:29 <rust_collector> he got a very good deal, lol. but I got a thing I wanted, so it is fine

12:40:25 <rust1> you are not wrong
12:40:52 <rust1> I did stop drinking... 9 minutes ago. so I will be ok some day
12:41:05 <T3sl4> i just had a bourbon sour, myself
12:41:54 <rust1> I just had 3/4 bottle of vodka from "a village" as it says. koskenkorva, finland-land

12:48:01 <T3sl4> then idk why they edited it
12:48:20 <T3sl4> the ways of the reddit are not to be questioned
12:48:30 <rust1> nah, that looks about right
12:48:44 <rust1> but, we have to obey the masters
12:48:54 <T3sl4> i'll drink to that
12:48:55 <rust1> (keeping that one)
12:50:19 <rust1> hmm, maybe I should share some of the old images people should be bored of by now
12:50:55 <rust1> or not, yes, that is a plan
12:52:01 <rust1> hmm, as you are mr guru the 3rd in here, do you have any suggestions for an esr meter, for idiot noobs?
12:52:30 <T3sl4> umm, i don't fix things enough to have a preference
12:52:39 <T3sl4> but i can tell you about things if you show me a circuit
12:52:43 <rust1> good call that
12:53:03 <T3sl4> you'd hate what i use, i just hook up a cap to the sig gen and scope :^)
12:53:45 <rust1> I was looking at jay somethings (somethingstinky) 5 transistor thing, which I guess you have seen on the forum,
12:54:25 <rust1> and danyk's 555 based simple one. https://danyk.cz/esr_en.html
12:54:26 <EEVBot> [url] ESR meter - Electrolytic capacitor tester | danyk.cz
12:54:38 <T3sl4> read that as "danky's"
12:54:47 <rust1> close enough
12:55:45 <rust1> both seem to run at a high, but sort of low for this frequency, I do not think there would be much difference between them, is practical terms
12:57:11 <T3sl4> mmh, i don't like that one. it's peaky, so you'll get a lot of signal from the ESL, and D1 drops some
12:57:33 <T3sl4> i forget if there was a synchronous rectified (or mixer or switch based) one?
12:57:54 <rust1> yes, he says you need a (probably) germanium diode, as d1
12:58:37 <T3sl4> it'll do a thing, but i'd prefer something more tolerant of lead length and more suitable for (more modern?) low ESRs
12:58:51 <rust1> here is the other one, if you do not remember it https://www.eevblog.com/forum/projects/5-transistor-esr-meter-design/
12:58:52 <EEVBot> [url] 5 Transistor ESR Meter Design - Page 1 | www.eevblog.com
12:59:34 <rust1> hmm, right. I think I get what you mean. but for someone like me, I will only get to work on old junk
13:00:24 <rust1> so, something that show the difference between stone dead forever, and should work, is probably ok?
13:00:43 Join: TheDude ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
13:00:50 <T3sl4> yeah, i like that one. that it's between a bridge, means it's reading the difference. adjust R8 and R10 to change range, or, that's probably in the text
13:02:13 <rust1> I have "always" liked the idea of that one, it sort of makes sense. and... there is a lot of text, lol
13:04:14 <rust1> but, thanks for that. I guess I will go for that one
13:04:22 <T3sl4> :)
13:06:21 <rust1> hmm, do regular suppliers still sell germanium diodes? I have not looked it up, but...
13:06:33 <T3sl4> nah, Si schottky do fine
13:06:41 <rust1> ok
13:07:11 <rust1> germanium is pretty much not a thing, right?
13:07:18 <T3sl4> a BAS70 is about the closest you'll find nowadays, or some RF types
13:07:34 <T3sl4> i'm not sure that Ge shottky or junction types are made anymore, yeah
13:07:49 <T3sl4> wonder if anyone made a SiGe hetereojunction one... hm
13:08:38 <rust1> heh, maybe I should ask my bulgarian parts guy, lol. I can do some retro crap
13:09:08 <T3sl4> if you're working on old shit, just pinch a few off a dead receiver :^)
13:09:49 <rust1> nah, I should stay away from anything fancy. (fanny) I do not really do anything, but old things are what I am interested in
13:10:24 <rust1> i think fixing things is my sort of thing, designing new things is a job for someone else
13:10:41 * T3sl4 waves
13:10:59 <rust1> yeah, you can do that new stuff, lol
13:13:53 <rust1> I am not really sure why, but I have a thing for power supplies, and whatever old crap I can find, and see if I can do anything with.
13:15:39 <rust1> I do no need any of it, but it just feels nice, if I can make something work again
13:16:45 <T3sl4> i used to do a lot with power supplies
13:17:03 <T3sl4> i still do, but i'd rather be doing other things. they're interesting, but more just bother to work through
13:18:23 <rust1> hmm, what was that guys website... let me see if I can find it
13:20:53 <rust1> Ok, I found this interesting. Not something I would get into, but interesting to read http://djerickson.com/ps-load/
13:20:53 <EEVBot> [url] Dave Erickson Power Supply Load PS-Load Project | djerickson.com
13:24:13 <T3sl4> ew, class C output
13:24:23 <T3sl4> but, still fine for a PSUy thing
13:25:22 <rust1> to me, it looks similar to an amplifier, with some weird control circuitry
13:25:40 <rust1> which sort of makes sense, I guess
13:25:48 <T3sl4> a power supply is naught but an amplifier that goes one direction
13:25:59 <T3sl4> that one goes all 4, so it's a proper amplifier i guess you could say
13:26:24 <T3sl4> hm, the diode-or'd error amp thingy won
13:26:27 <T3sl4> 't...
13:26:35 <T3sl4> well, + and - i suppose, ok

13:27:24 <rust1> I think a 2 quadrant would be plenty too much
13:27:49 <T3sl4> that started with a hint of suffer age, but then went full electro
13:28:04 <rust1> they are just a bit weird
13:28:47 <T3sl4> but i suppose "sufferage" and "haemorrhage" rhyme
13:29:04 <rust1> both have many letters
13:29:20 <T3sl4> mmm yes, letters
13:29:28 <T3sl4> mouthsounds too

15:08:32 <MrMobodies> Found a few programs remembering paths to files
15:08:45 <MrMobodies> edited the configuration not to remember recent files
15:14:06 <MrMobodies> I finished one vanilla copy with most of the hardware drivers removed
15:14:16 <MrMobodies> I had to quickly check the culprits
15:14:38 <MrMobodies> Videolan, Notepad++ can't remember the other thing
15:14:53 <MrMobodies> I never really use recent files
15:15:09 <MrMobodies> I have been into too many situations when customers end up with so many duplicates
15:15:23 <MrMobodies> and they have means to understand about how to organise things
15:15:44 <MrMobodies> I was in an office once
15:16:13 <MrMobodies> and they couldn't understand when one person edits a file in excel what is suppose to be on a network drive
15:16:21 <MrMobodies> it wasn't updating
15:16:39 <MrMobodies> turns out that was on the network drive but a duplicate in a different place
15:16:54 <MrMobodies> and when they have backups they can view
15:16:59 <MrMobodies> over a 7 day period
15:17:17 <MrMobodies> and they open copies of the same file name and it's in recent
15:17:35 <MrMobodies> that's why I stop the recent file thing
15:18:02 <MrMobodies> I am hoping it will be my last disk image, I hope there is nothing else
15:18:14 <MrMobodies> then to test with a pendrive to see if it can extract okay
15:18:24 <MrMobodies> and it's finished
15:20:53 <steve30> o/
15:23:47 <MrMobodies> now with the vanilla copy, no license keys but can be used
15:24:02 <MrMobodies> and it is in such a way you don't to be activated to turn stupid decorative things off
15:26:20 <MrMobodies> I have noticed if you go into tools folder options and view in this Windows 10 LTSC I have
15:26:53 <MrMobodies> it apparently DEFAULTS the view in "THIS PC/Computer", Printers, Devices and Printers, Network Connections
15:27:05 <MrMobodies> to "CONTENT" view
15:27:28 <MrMobodies> the tile looking thing
15:27:53 <MrMobodies> and it swaps "Free space" and "Total size" the other way round and takes even more room by "grouping" them
15:28:02 <MrMobodies> quite infuriating.
15:28:27 <MrMobodies> I only just discovered it
15:28:48 <MrMobodies> so I'll do it manually from now on
15:28:57 <MrMobodies> open regsitry, watch the folder bags
15:29:15 <MrMobodies> observe the last number
15:29:22 <MrMobodies> open the culprit folder
15:29:29 <MrMobodies> reopen registry and see the new number
15:29:47 <MrMobodies> add that to /allfolders/shell/
15:29:54 <MrMobodies> and it shouldn't do it again
15:33:49 <MrMobodies> also with this copy, I turned the boot menu
15:34:00 <MrMobodies> for about 3 second
15:34:14 <MrMobodies> to allow me to go into safe mode
15:34:23 <MrMobodies> if there was a problem with a driver
15:34:57 <electrohead> o/
15:37:16 <MrMobodies> they say thay stopped it because it fastens the boot time
15:37:26 <MrMobodies> I don't care whether it does or not
15:37:50 <MrMobodies> with that Lenovo x260 it boots up in seconds and that doesn't matter
15:37:57 <MrMobodies> I think it is a very stupid idea
15:38:01 <MrMobodies> not to give a choice
15:38:28 <MrMobodies> where I have to do a range of things to give me that chance
15:39:01 <MrMobodies> I was looking because i forgot which keys to delete of the hardware rather than manually removing them and the hidden stuff
15:39:07 <MrMobodies> guess what i found on search
15:39:17 <MrMobodies> "RESET YOUR PC" Bullsh*t
15:39:31 <MrMobodies> or you can "Refresh you pc" utter crap
15:39:49 <MrMobodies> it only takes less than 10 minutes to extract my disc image
15:40:04 <MrMobodies> i'll see how it performs when I have finished copying over the pendrive
15:40:28 <MrMobodies> 17gb 29% and another 15minutes more
15:41:26 <MrMobodies> there is one problem with it
15:41:35 <MrMobodies> the Lenovo touchpad don't work
15:41:45 <MrMobodies> no easy way to install the drivers
15:41:52 <MrMobodies> so I am going to give the customer an old USB mouse
15:41:58 <MrMobodies> a wired one to use for that purpose
15:43:01 <MrMobodies> I am hoping to surpise this customer. He maybe a bit upset that the UI looks really old, lacks the APP store but it is really quick now.
15:43:32 <MrMobodies> the man who gave it to me asked me to put Macafee on it
15:43:54 <MrMobodies> I said I can do that after I am finished but with the way the hard disk controller is, it will kill it
15:44:21 <MrMobodies> it can take 30% to do 200 to 300mb read on hdtune
15:44:44 <MrMobodies> on my old Lenovo W700 it only takes 2% to do that
15:49:11 <electrohead> MrMobodies: you drinking coffee or something? lol
15:50:14 <MrMobodies> yes
15:50:17 <MrMobodies> some spicy tea
15:50:28 <MrMobodies> I was a bit agigtated about an hour ago
15:50:42 <MrMobodies> and when I get agigtated I can't rest until I correct the issues
15:51:20 <MrMobodies> and in the process is always a reminder that as a consumer I am somewhat stupid and confused as to why they set the defaults like that in the first place
15:51:40 <MrMobodies> where if i installed windows 10 from scratch, I can't find anything
15:51:50 <MrMobodies> I bombarded with sh*T
15:52:17 <MrMobodies> and the start menu I find that has everything on there but not the things I want
15:52:37 <MrMobodies> and to search, until I set the indexer not to index certain places
15:52:38 <electrohead> now you see why I stay away from windows :P
15:52:42 <electrohead> well, one of many reasons lol
15:52:43 <MrMobodies> that improves things a lot
15:52:55 <MrMobodies> when unsetting the indexer
15:53:18 <MrMobodies> at the pub they didn't believe my copy would be any different
15:53:22 <MrMobodies> but when I show them
15:53:26 <MrMobodies> then they complain
15:53:31 <MrMobodies> oooh that's bad too
15:53:35 <MrMobodies> it looks like windows xp
15:53:47 <MrMobodies> I say well it's nice and simple
15:53:57 <MrMobodies> I know where things are
15:54:12 <MrMobodies> what i need is in front of me
15:54:16 <MrMobodies> not hidden
15:55:22 <MrMobodies> now then let see how this going to work
16:01:58 <MrMobodies> Not bad
16:02:01 <MrMobodies> already 66%

16:03:00 <MrMobodies> it'll report the time it took after
16:03:47 <MrMobodies> when creating new profiles or account it just says "Please Wait"
16:03:51 <MrMobodies> with the spinner
16:04:04 <MrMobodies> a lot better than the patronising "we're polishing your pc"
16:04:16 <MrMobodies> "we're getting things read for you"
16:06:58 <MrMobodies> EXCELLENT

16:20:06 <MrMobodies> I made a few improvments
16:20:15 <MrMobodies> i ripped out the dustgrill and puts some feet underneath
16:20:29 <MrMobodies> as it was overheating was another complaint from the owner
16:30:06 <MrMobodies> I will leave the original Home 10 os in the bag
16:30:33 <MrMobodies> but I left a warning in there yesterday just in case owner accidentally picks that one up
16:30:34 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/YgWabho.jpg
16:31:16 <MrMobodies> I had a bit of troube creating that second usb partition but sorted it today
16:31:48 <MrMobodies> turned out to be something not set right on the thing i was doing it form
16:31:53 <MrMobodies> wouldn't read but turned out fine
16:37:41 <MrMobodies> All finished... 5 days of aggravation has come an end
16:37:48 <MrMobodies> and it looks like it has paid off
16:38:05 <MrMobodies> now I can start doing this for others who want it
16:38:08 <MrMobodies> with very little work
16:41:29 <gremlinz> labels are nice touch
16:42:32 <Halcyon> Except for the typo :P
16:44:36 <gremlinz> haha yer
16:44:57 <gremlinz> perhaps a deliberate oxymoron

16:45:30 <gremlinz> not a great deal
16:45:37 <gremlinz> just chillin it

16:46:13 <gremlinz> 5 o'clock knock key
16:46:24 <Halcyon> Yeh had enough for today
16:46:34 <Halcyon> Got 1 more thing to do then it's wine time
16:46:35 <gremlinz> i'm yet to figure out what i'm having for dinner
16:46:42 <gremlinz> mm nice
16:46:56 <gremlinz> think i might crack open a cc and dry
16:47:04 <Halcyon> Sounds like a plan
16:47:17 <Halcyon> As for dinner, I highly recommend Brian Lagerstrom: https://www.youtube.com/c/WeedsSardines

17:14:34 <Zsjoelfir> I have some pointless videos running as a kind of background sound for me to listen to, as I am all alone in this part of the office and its otherwise jsut dead silent. xD
17:16:08 <Halcyon> You also have us :-)
17:20:32 <electrohead> I had a feed from radioreference.com going before, heh
17:20:45 <electrohead> err, wait
17:20:48 <electrohead> broadcastify
17:20:57 <electrohead> was on both sites for a while, actually
17:22:07 <Halcyon> We need to get you a wireless Rode microphone you can clip on to your shirt so we can listen to electrohead radio.
17:22:15 <Halcyon> I'd love to hear what a "day in the life" sounds like
17:22:25 <Halcyon> Aside from yelling at the cat
17:22:54 <T3sl4> stupid cat
17:23:08 <Halcyon> She gets into things she isn't supposed to
17:23:28 <electrohead> heh, yelling at the cat for scratching at the fucking carpet, when there are two fucking scratch posts three feet away
17:23:35 <electrohead> o.o
17:23:40 <electrohead> lol
17:23:44 <Halcyon> That would annoy the fuck out of me
17:24:00 <Halcyon> Phil's cats claw at his couch. It's all fucked.
17:24:13 <electrohead> I love her to death, she's cute as a button, playful .. then out of no where, she fucking goes wild on the carpet
17:24:19 <Halcyon> If a cat did that to mine, it would no longer exist on this earth
17:30:26 <Zsjoelfir> yep, I have you, Halcyon. and all others here. but I doubt that I can install discord or whatnot and listen to your perverts talk all day ;P having youtube running with.... right now some video about analysing an aviations accident is easy.
17:36:44 <electrohead> oh, so that's why you won't really talk to me?
17:36:46 <electrohead> that's fucked up

17:42:21 <electrohead> alright, I'm finally going to bed
17:42:33 <T3sl4> lol cya
17:42:35 <Zsjoelfir> electrohead, nah. its just because my hearing is a bit impaired so that I struggle understanding people over phone/discord/whatnot. ;)
17:42:41 <Zsjoelfir> enjoy bed :D
17:42:52 <electrohead> nice winky face
17:43:13 <Halcyon> It's almost time for you to get up electrohead
17:43:24 <electrohead> yeah something like that
17:43:26 <electrohead> goodnight
17:44:42 <Halcyon> Night mate
17:59:44 <K> hello carrots
17:59:50 <T3sl4> hi parsley
18:00:28 * K parsleys some
18:00:44 <T3sl4> and some chives? sour cream even?
18:01:55 <K> let's not go overboard
18:02:17 * T3sl4 waterboards Halcyon with sour cream whey
18:03:08 * Zsjoelfir sprinkles some lovage and savory around
18:03:10 <K> here parsley usually goes into marinade for cucumbers, or as a little decoation on some "salads"
18:03:42 <K> a little bit can be put into some soups, but that is very situational
18:03:55 <T3sl4> i hardly use it myself, but it's common enough in european things i guess
18:04:20 <K> along with dill
18:04:31 <K> dill is nice.
18:05:16 <T3sl4> agree
18:05:42 <T3sl4> apiaceae are nice sometimes
18:05:58 <T3sl4> sometimes very bad
18:06:13 <Zsjoelfir> lovage and savory are also very nice
18:06:45 <T3sl4> aye

20:34:23 <Ampera> so naturally, I'm going 45, everyone else doing 65
20:34:35 <jaymax> That's good then. Achievable comfort.
20:34:36 <Ampera> The accidents on that road are not pretty.
20:35:05 <Ampera> it takes like 10-20 minutes

20:36:34 <jaymax> Probably 25-30 back. When I wasn't a fatass it was 12 in and 18 back.
20:38:18 <jaymax> Also back then, I was one of those studded-tyre winter-riding jerkasses.

21:08:40 * Halcyon licks Ampera's face
21:08:56 * Ampera hugs Halcyon
21:09:05 <Halcyon> How are you?
21:09:17 <Ampera> enjoying my lapsang souchong
21:09:26 <Ampera> trying to wake up
21:09:27 <Ampera> how are you
21:09:48 <Halcyon> The opposite, not long for bed I think
21:11:57 <Ampera> I'm sitting back, and waiting for my boss to show up
21:12:04 <Ampera> afaik I'm getting moved to a different part of the building
21:13:22 <Halcyon> Oh?
21:13:46 <Ampera> they want to hire more people so they're doing a shuffling around
21:15:12 <Halcyon> Ah right
21:15:15 <Halcyon> Do you get a window seat?
21:15:55 <Ampera> possibly
21:15:57 <Ampera> I do not have one yet

22:22:35 <Ampera> In other news, cheap Walmart dashcam is already boot looping
22:22:48 <Ampera> soooo I think I may buy a garmin one eventually
22:23:18 <Ampera> I'm not really sure what else to buy, as they're the only remotely reliable name, as everything else is no name chineesium
22:23:43 Join: LordGeir ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
22:23:53 <Ampera> not that Garmin is even remotely reliable. Most of the Amazon complaints were about people who are too stupid to use the thing right, so maybe I'll luck out
