01:37:20 <DHess_US> I've seen that movie. It turns out badly for the fly.

03:51:43 <Erhard> I find ddg to be about the same. For a lot of things google just returns useless sites like Quora or Twitter garbage.
03:52:07 <Erhard> I use DDG daily. If I can't find something right away I will try google. Sometimes it is better, sometimes worse.
03:53:07 <Erhard> But DDG has been my search engine for about 4-5 years. I can't complain much about it. It is way better now than it was a few years ago.

08:42:08 <Ampera> how are you do electrohead?
08:43:19 <electrohead> I do are doing good, y tu?
08:43:55 <Ampera> just ate a chunk of biltong. It's strange, when I first made this batch, it was kinda tough and awful
08:44:04 <Ampera> but either that was just a bad piece, or time made it better, but this one was a lot nicer
08:44:07 <Ampera> quite flavorful
08:44:11 <electrohead> yum
08:44:27 <Ampera> if I send you some, would you be able to cut it? I can cut it for you, but I'm concerned it'd go bad on the way
08:44:39 <Ampera> It'll store for years whole
08:44:51 <Ampera> but when cut into pieces, I have no idea how long it'll last
08:45:01 <Ampera> it's about as hard as a piece of wood
08:47:16 <electrohead> yeah I can cut it no problem
08:47:19 <jaymax> Ampera: stop talking about your hard meat
08:47:28 * electrohead beers jaymax
08:47:47 <Ampera> alright, I'll send you a couple biltongs when I get my christmas packages together

12:58:29 <arch> has anyone here actually zapped a mosfet merely through static discharge by touching it? or is that the stuff of legends
12:58:53 <arch> or has modern technology advanced far enough that we don't really worry about it
13:08:03 <arch> how reasonably high up can i bias up the uc3843's isense pin voltage to cut down on current sense power losses? can i push it up to 750mV?
13:08:16 <arch> well, i will find out this question myself actually
13:08:52 <DHess_US> Yes
13:09:26 <arch> DHess_US, yes to my previous question about mosfet esd sensitivity or uc3843 question?
13:09:26 <DHess_US> Not a power mosfet, but small signal ones like the 2n7000 are not difficult to destroy, and low power RF ones can die just by looking atm them.
13:09:31 <arch> ahh ok
13:10:01 <DHess_US> power mosfets usually have enough gate capacitance to be pretty tough.
13:10:14 <arch> i have not worked with high freq stuff so i havent had a need to buy any rf mosfets
13:10:57 <arch> welp, at least i can rest easy now when i chuck in to-252 and to-220 mosfets by the handful into my parts bins with my hands
13:11:08 <arch> and scrounge around as well
13:11:41 <DHess_US> I'm sure you could still zap one by dancing on carpet to charge yourself up
13:12:21 <arch> i have a habit of grounding myself through my bench psu, by touching the green (earth gnd) jack
13:12:27 <arch> before i work on something
13:18:49 <arch> speaking of which, i have been sorting through my smd salvaged mosfet collection. here are some of them. and also my cuk converter board im building as well: https://imgur.com/a/XV6ukr2

13:21:13 <arch> big brains time: buy some old powerful dead gpus off ebay, like the GTX270-295 series for $20, and salvage off >$20 worth of parts
13:22:17 <arch> i mean, just the copper heatsinks they come with is worth quite a bit, at least for DIY parts value
13:27:56 <arch> my tube collection has shipped from goldmine. now we wait...im excited. what headaches lie in store for me when using vacuum tubes...but also what can i learn for em :D

17:56:33 <T3sl4> well, seem to have picked up a sore throat, probably from the pub last weekend :/
17:59:56 <K> hello vertical mice
18:00:57 <Halcyon> Is it the spicy flu T3sl4 ?
18:01:10 <T3sl4> no idea

18:06:00 <T3sl4> thanks
18:06:11 <Halcyon> T3sl4 loves my stiffies
18:06:21 <T3sl4> i need a stiff one in my face
18:06:28 <K> it is something to hang on, yes?
18:06:53 <T3sl4> wait, is alcohol supposed to be good for infections? i forget
18:06:55 <Halcyon> I mean, sure, 1.5 hands worth maybe?
18:07:12 <T3sl4> actually bad ofc, but i mean, supposed to
18:07:16 <Halcyon> Good for infections, bad for immunity. So meh?
18:07:33 <Halcyon> I mean, I've never been seriously ill?
18:08:34 <K> ur an australian though
18:08:51 <Halcyon> Why does that matter?
18:09:11 <Halcyon> Apart from having better wines than the French :P
18:14:27 <K> because of all the ways it tries to put you into ground
18:14:41 <Halcyon> ?
18:14:54 <K> spiders and snakes and dropbears
18:15:07 <Halcyon> It's actually very safe here, the only thing that has ever stung me was a wasp
18:15:15 <Halcyon> Never been bitten by a spider or a snake.
18:15:19 <Halcyon> Most aren't deadly anyway
18:15:32 <Halcyon> Just don't piss them off and you'll be right

18:17:09 <Halcyon> Hello Ysjoelfir
18:17:38 <Ysjoelfir> I just witnessed some random dude taking the chance and steal a bus right in front of the driver
18:18:23 <K> the whole bus?
18:18:28 <Ysjoelfir> yes
18:19:01 <K> ambitious
18:19:33 <Halcyon> I assume he failed?

18:20:01 <Ysjoelfir> well....he looked pretty successfull
18:20:09 <Halcyon> Until the Gestapo came?
18:20:20 <Ysjoelfir> bus is gone, and the second bus is chasing it
18:20:38 <Halcyon> I'd imagine they are able to track it via GPS, plus CCTV everywhere onboard
18:21:03 <Ysjoelfir> no cctv on our old busses xD and no idea if it has gps. but probably
18:21:04 <Ysjoelfir> http://img.pdi.engineering/various/IMG_20221103_080646.jpg
18:21:28 <Ysjoelfir> I actually took the pic to complain about them once again blocking the companies driveway for having a chat and smoke
18:22:17 <Ysjoelfir> whitebusdriver was chatting and smoking with bendybusdriver roughly where the bendy section is, with the doors on the white bus wide open, when some random dude came running, jumped into the white bus, started it and drove away
18:22:42 <Ysjoelfir> bendybusdriver and whitebusdriver were very irritated, jumped panicly into the bendybus and started chasing it
18:23:26 <K> bhah
18:24:02 <Ysjoelfir> it was..... pretty fascinating to watch
18:24:28 <Halcyon> I bet you there will be a memo tomorrow "Don't leave the keys in the bus"
18:24:39 <Ysjoelfir> probably xD
18:29:16 <T3sl4> fascinating

23:20:28 <Ampera> If Amtrak did anything even remotely like that, and had service to NYC that didn't suck, I'd probably go down there more often
23:45:01 <K> yeah this looks quite nice
23:56:48 <Ampera> For Germany, where trains, trams, and buses actually are useful to people, this would be great
23:57:07 <Ampera> Ultimately the main reason I'd want a car in a place with good public transport is to move around large things and large quantities of things
23:57:22 <Ampera> like, it's a right fucking pain in the ass to do a big load of groceries if you need to carry it all with you onto a bus or train
23:57:59 <Ampera> I've heard the claim that in most places, grocers are smaller and more frequent, often within walking distance, but if you have a family, you still need to either make multiple trips, or recruit some bag carriers :P
