08:14:02 <MrMobodies> That is when I tend to become very skeptical
08:14:29 <MrMobodies> A labour politician writing articles for a conservative newspaper.
08:14:47 <MrMobodies> maybe they did before but I only noticed just now
08:17:47 <MrMobodies> do you think that is a bit suspicious?
08:18:10 <rust2> not really. not more than anything else they do
08:18:31 <MrMobodies> I could understand if they interview politicians but accepting articles from other party members
08:18:49 <MrMobodies> and that is the opposition party

09:31:20 <jaymax> > There is no solution that doesn’t involve expanding the workforce. That’s why I have committed to doubling the number of graduating doctors and district nurses and providing thousands more training placements
09:31:51 <jaymax> Well, his suggestions seem anything but conservative
09:32:46 <jaymax> There is a common problem in American shitbaggery that anyone that tries to reach out to "the other side" is dining with "the enemy".
09:33:42 <jaymax> That said, no politician and no political stripe should be trusted.

09:39:43 <jaymax> Also, I'm a workforce analyst for the health system in Nova Scotia so I'll try not to scare you over how I really feel about these issues. But I will say: whichever region accepts (1) more healthcare workers but (2) fewer nurses, (3) abolish alternate-level-of-care, and (4) demarcate (more) services to be privately-run instead .... will get ahead of the worldwide competition or realities.

12:11:25 <YurkshireLad> In the Tone Control for the Pro-Co Rat pedal, the 100K-A pot is part of the low pass filter with R7 and C8. (Typing this out to make sure I understand correctly). If I add the pot to my circuit, pin 1 is input from R6, the wiper pin goes to R7 and the third pin goes to ground? Is this correct?
12:11:26 <YurkshireLad> I've hooked this up but it acts a volume control. I don't have a means of checking if the tone changes until I hook it up to a speaker.
12:11:26 <YurkshireLad> https://www.electrosmash.com/images/tech/pro-co-rat/pro-co-rat-schematic-parts.jpg
12:14:18 <rust2> that is not what that schematic says, input is from r6, wiper goes to r6, and the output to r7?
12:14:55 <rust2> but, what that does to the tone, I don't know. it seems like it would just make it lower volume, to me?
12:19:19 <YurkshireLad> I think it's supposed to change the resistance to modify the low pass filter. Maybe I shouldn't be looking at the output based on only a single input frequency. I need to look at the frequency response of the output otherwise I'm probably not seeing the whole picture.
12:22:06 <YurkshireLad> I don't have any means of checking the frequency response so I'll just remove the tone control for now.
12:23:54 <rust2> well, it is not much extra stuff, maybe just try it and see if the sound change, in a way you want?
12:25:16 <YurkshireLad> Waiting for my soldering iron to arrive so I can rig something up to connect my guitar and amp.
12:27:13 <rust2> what kind of stuff do you play?
12:29:21 <YurkshireLad> rock/metal VERY badly!
12:29:38 <rust2> oh, so more or less punk. that is nice
12:30:01 <YurkshireLad> Punk, but with spandex, nice hair and layered vocals? And perhaps keyboards? lol

12:32:11 <rust2> as long as you have fun with it... I was never interested in playing instruments, until the last few years, but now my fingers are broken enough, that I do not think I want to play a guitar, as my metal does not sound great, when played slow enough for me, lol

23:25:59 <rust2> "morning"
23:26:11 <Halcyon> Hey rusty
23:26:33 <rust2> hoioo. it it still an ok day?
23:27:17 <Halcyon> What do you mean?
23:27:57 <rust2> I am wondering if the day is ok, and as you are in the future, if it is still ok, where you are
23:29:02 <Halcyon> The weather was warm (28-30 degrees), I went for a bushwalk, then it started to get stormy, and I got wet on my second walk of the day. The food was delicious today though.
23:29:16 <rust2> sounds nice
23:29:23 <rust2> except that I would die
23:29:44 <Halcyon> Sook :P
23:30:08 <Halcyon> To be fair, below about 5 degrees, I start to whinge.
23:30:31 <rust2> I am messing with a pair of old computer speakers, that mominlaw threw out.
23:30:41 <Halcyon> Oh yeh?
23:31:21 <rust2> they are sort of nice, for being computer speakers. philips, mid 90s, I am guessing
23:31:33 <rust2> not fancy, but seems solid
23:32:00 <rust2> the amplifier in it was dead, so I put a chinese module in it
23:34:57 <rust2> and now, the one in the speaker with no amplifier in it, has a much lower volume, that the one which do have the amp, and I am wondering if it is all because of the extra wire, or if it is that the one with the amp is not sealed up properly, so air can move easier, or if there is something else, lol
23:35:40 <rust2> and, if it is just the way it is, I wonder if I can do much about it. maybe make the loud one less loud...
23:47:37 <electrohead> o/
23:47:44 <electrohead> heys.
23:47:52 <rust2> hois
23:47:54 <electrohead> so, cat.exe has stopped working

23:48:54 <electrohead> rust2: I was just telling Halcyon, how a mouse out-smartted my cat 5 times, then once she had the upper hand .. sniffed the mouse, booped it on the head, and let it get away
23:49:15 <Halcyon> Stupid cat
23:49:16 <Halcyon> :P
23:49:37 <rust2> ooh. well, it was a worthy play mate.
23:49:54 <electrohead> She's acting all proud and stuff right now, like .. "I booped the mouse, yup it's friendly"
23:50:09 <Halcyon> Hahahaha
23:51:02 <rust2> perfect
23:51:27 <rust2> well, I would like to see you try to boop the mouse...
23:53:32 <electrohead> I could have
23:53:38 <electrohead> it was staring at me lol
23:54:09 <rust2> oh gawd. I am not sure if you should go to bed tonight
