00:00:39 <jaymax> Put it this way, it's easier for me to narrow the day's eating window than to restrain myself once the eating starts.
00:02:46 <Halcyon> I see
00:02:54 <Halcyon> May I ask, are you a bigger boy?
00:03:49 <jaymax> Yes indeed, 160kg. Yesterday was 1 cup milk, 1 apple, 2 cup chicken soup, a two-egg omlette, a bagel, three slices toast, and this: https://files.maxuel.compy.ca:5281/upload/Ec2KAKOyN6AWTVL-/YXY9Q7AkRze8GI3SPnGL1g.jpg
00:04:07 <jaymax> That was probably a below-average day.
00:05:01 <Halcyon> That doesn't seem like a lot of food
00:05:10 <Halcyon> Even for someone my size
00:05:40 <Halcyon> Are you trying to slim down?
00:05:53 <Halcyon> (Sorry if I'm prying, I'm just curious)
00:06:03 <jaymax> That was a fasting day. Not including the milk, everything was compressed into a 4 or 5 hr timeframe.
00:06:37 <Halcyon> Do you feel this is sustainable for you?
00:06:52 <jaymax> Halcyon: I am. I stumbled upon how easy I *could* fast, in early December.
00:07:08 <Halcyon> Well that's good
00:07:23 <jaymax> Went something like 32 hours without feeling like I was torturing myself.
00:07:32 <Halcyon> Finding a method that works for you long-term is the most important. So many people "diet" but it's doomed to fail.
00:08:02 <jaymax> Though the night before was a Christmas party where I loaded up on meat and cheese so that carrying capacity just seems easy anyway. LOL
00:08:12 <Halcyon> Hahaha
00:08:43 <jaymax> Fasting days since end 14-18 hours later. Fine'nuff tho.
00:10:09 <Halcyon> Cool beans
00:47:54 * Ampera hugs Halcyon
00:47:57 <Ampera> <3
00:50:25 <steve30> Just playing Spot the Steve. He ended up on Look North today.
00:50:31 <steve30> (Albeit in the back ground)
00:53:03 <steve30> The cameraman was using a smartphone and I must say, the picture quality isn't too good.
01:20:39 * Ysjoelfir points at steve30
01:20:42 <Ysjoelfir> there he is!
01:22:45 * Ampera hugs Ysjoelfir
01:22:49 <Ampera> how are you doing Ysjoelfirend?

01:53:32 <steve30> so, my Mum's professional oven cleaner is here
01:53:36 <steve30> I wonder how much that costs
01:53:54 <steve30> No idea why it needs cleaning 'professionally'
01:54:07 <Ampera> maybe she ordered him while baked
02:06:32 <K> time for a cup of coffeeeehhh
02:07:19 * Ysjoelfir steals K 's coffeeeeeehhhhhh
02:07:31 <Ampera> Ysjoelfir, did you listen to anything from what I sent you?
02:07:34 * Ysjoelfir throws this stupid PC at Ampera for him to fix
02:07:40 <Ysjoelfir> Ampera, yes. it was nice
02:07:48 <Ampera> what did you listen to
02:08:30 <Ysjoelfir> I put the mentioned ones in a seperate playlist and played them on shuffle on the weekend, so no clue about specific tracks :D
02:09:08 <Ampera> as for your PC, my dad will be there in the fall. He knows about as much as fixing PCs as you do, he can help.
02:14:26 * K shuffles Ysjoelfirs PC
02:14:33 <K> there, i fixed it
02:42:09 <Ysjoelfir> its not my pc, thank god

03:16:01 <arch> rate my layout for a boost section (bottom part near micro USB), and buck section (top microUSB): https://i.imgur.com/kLW0I8F.png
03:36:51 <Ysjoelfir> Looks pretty decent to me?
03:51:24 <arch> :3
03:51:52 * Ampera pets the arch
03:52:21 <arch> :3
03:52:47 <Ampera> how are you doing arch
03:53:00 <arch> enjoying the extra day off
03:53:26 <arch> we also get juneteenth off this year
03:53:32 <arch> new holiday it seems
03:53:44 <Ampera> I'd have to check if we get that off
03:53:52 <Ampera> but yes, time off is nice
03:54:12 <Ampera> I'm having a poke at go right now.
03:55:33 <arch> we should have a few more holidays off. i say we adopt all the hindu, muslim, buddhist, etc, holidays. the world would be a better place. less efficient, but better.

05:21:59 <Guest32> Hi! I'm looking for a new multimeter; I have a couple of cheap chinese ones and wanted one that had (1) fast, latching continuity and (2) is a bit safer when occasionally poking at mains voltage (230VAC). I initially placed an order for the UNI-T UT161E but have since then been doubting myself and whether I should instead go for e.g. the Brymen
05:21:59 <Guest32> BM235. They'd be cost me exactly the same, but I'm under the impression that the Brymen would be considered better quality. I think NCV detection might come in handy (but I don't know because I've never had a NCV tester) and I'm under the impression that the Brymen would be better for that. The UNI-T has a data logger and while that's nice to have
05:22:00 <Guest32> I don't know how often I'd use it, given that it'd be a faff to hook up. Could I get some opinions between the two? I'm sure either of them is dramatically better than the £15 meters I already have.
05:29:26 <steve30> I've not used a UT61E or a Brymen, but the UT61Es do tend to be quite highly regarded in the 'affordable' range
05:30:02 <steve30> Personally I think I'd be quite happy with one.
05:32:57 <Guest32> Thanks steve30, I appreciate the support :)
05:33:47 <steve30> I think people debate whether they quite meet the CAT ratings they advertise, but even if they are a bit lacking, they are usually fine for most hobby uses
05:34:23 <Guest32> That's why I went for the 161, which I took to be at least independently verified (compared to the "base model", UT61E)
05:34:36 <Guest32> UT61E+, sorry.
05:35:03 <Guest32> Naming is certainly a bit confusing with the UNI-Ts

22:39:17 <Ampera> good morning sweet prince
22:39:27 <electrohead> sweet prince?
22:39:32 <electrohead> I'm the king, damn it lol
22:39:33 <Ampera> <3
22:39:35 <electrohead> hey dude
22:39:40 <Ampera> you're too shy to be king
22:39:45 <Ampera> or maybe just shy enough
22:39:48 <Ampera> idk how these things work
22:39:58 <electrohead> lol
22:40:07 <electrohead> good morning and all that good stuff
22:40:32 * electrohead looks for the caffeine
22:41:01 * Ampera gives electrohead some smoky tea
22:41:25 <electrohead> yeah I'd actually try that
22:41:32 <Ampera> it's called lapsang souchong
22:41:41 <Ampera> if you can find a box from twinings it's pretty good
22:41:53 <Ampera> I steep 5 minutes and add milk and sucralose/sweetner
22:42:07 <Ampera> in about 1000ml water
22:42:34 <Ampera> sweetner might be anachronistic, but it's my standard for all black teas
22:49:59 <electrohead> I usually like only sugar with my tea
22:50:14 <electrohead> now coffee on the other hand, sugar and vanilla caramel creamer
