05:03:54 <steve30> hi
05:05:23 * T3sl4 meows at steve30
05:09:40 <steve30> I was reading about an event called 'Furries against Fascism' in the near future. I'd love to go to that with my camera just for the sake of it, but i think its in Scotland.
05:10:04 <Ampera> <camera melts the moment it gets turned on>
05:10:04 <T3sl4> fashies get the bashies
05:10:07 <Kuschelpony> steve, öet me look if i can still find it on mastodon

05:11:14 <rust5> scotland is the same little island, you can ride your bike there
05:13:19 <Kuschelpony> no, its already a day or two ago

05:16:04 <coppice> steve30: I wonder how many of these people could even give a rough definition of fascism
05:17:37 Quit: Agripa3 ([email protected]) Quit: Later Synapsid Tetrapods
05:19:02 <steve30> Usually I find these groups think that anything that is NOT far left is automatically fascist.
05:19:23 <steve30> Although a quick duckduckgo search suggests that there are a lot of Nazis amongst furries
05:19:27 <T3sl4> there are many enablers
05:19:53 * agpt3 misses the days of food not bombs
05:21:20 <agpt3> Now it's food not fascism, Furries against Fascism, Meat not Meta, and other crazy shit.
05:22:02 <T3sl4> and yes, furries come from a broad spectrum... most "just want to have fun", but some people's personal ideas of "fun" might be seen as disturbing by others
05:22:29 <coppice> Meta - its not a business, its a bunch of hangers on
05:23:23 <agpt3> Point is, it all went fringe despite not "resolving" the first one.
05:24:06 <agpt3> More bombs and less food now, than #MissionAccomplished 2004
05:24:26 <coppice> how about "food, not governments forcing farmers not to farm when a famine is on the way"
05:24:58 <T3sl4> or exporting their food for marginal profit

11:08:29 <Ampera> hello electrohead
11:08:37 <Ampera> how is my favorite hick doing
11:15:36 <Halcyon> Morning all
11:15:40 <Halcyon> That was a nice sleep-in
11:15:56 <Halcyon> Happy Australia day!
11:16:13 * Ampera hugs Halcyon
11:16:30 * Ampera launches some tim tams at Halcyon, and fires up some snags and onion
11:16:46 <Ampera> (am I doing this holiday right?)
11:16:56 <Halcyon> Basically
11:17:08 <Ampera> all I know I learned from dankpods
11:17:24 <Ampera> a true ambassador for your "culture"
11:18:13 <Halcyon> You can sum up our culture pretty quickly: Don't be a dickhead and have a bit of fun.
11:18:41 <Ampera> how are you doing Halcyon
11:21:52 <steve30> hi Halcyon
11:22:04 * Ampera pets steve30
11:22:05 <Ampera> how are you doing steve30
11:26:31 <Ampera> TIL my camcorder outputs microphone audio through its HDMI output.
11:26:57 <Halcyon> Ampera, I'm good, still waiking up, sipping my coffee.
11:27:00 <Halcyon> How are you?
11:27:06 <Ampera> I always thought it did, but today for some reason my normal condenser mic just wasn't behaving when I joined a meeting, so I tried my capture card's input
11:27:08 <Ampera> and it seemed to work
11:27:23 <Ampera> my head is full of static, but it's better than it was yesterday.
11:27:35 <Ampera> I basically haven't eaten much of anything since Saturday, but have been drinking water
11:29:22 * steve30 curls up on Ampera's keyboard
11:29:35 * Ampera clickity-clacks steve30 to sleep
11:30:02 <steve30> Halcyon, will you be going to this? :P

11:30:34 <T3sl4> feeling saxy
11:30:46 <Ampera> <3
11:30:52 <Ampera> you are a saxmonster
11:33:25 <Halcyon> steve30, hahaha another whinge fest up there?
11:33:40 <steve30> yup
11:33:56 <steve30> I wouldn't mind going to that, but its up in Scotland, and I'm busy anyway that day :)
11:33:57 <T3sl4> which, without absolutely any context at all, is a banger, and pretty good animation for what it is, but is also pretty true to the game, sax notwithstanding https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7W__xGNnd4

11:40:19 <T3sl4> hows stralia
11:40:28 <Halcyon> Sunny and hot today
11:40:59 <T3sl4> sounds nice
11:41:02 <T3sl4> it snowed here
11:41:10 <Halcyon> It's about 35 degrees down the bottom of the mountain, about 26-28 here and about 31 in Sydney city.
11:41:24 <Halcyon> Then probably thunderstorms later

11:42:46 <Ampera> For some stupid reason every time I click on a piece of road in street view that's an overpass, it will move me underneath the overpass\
11:42:54 <Ampera> with no way to get back up to the overpass
11:43:11 <Halcyon> Because you live in the dark Ampera and that's where you belong
11:43:12 <Halcyon> :P
11:43:16 <Ampera> This makes street view through Albany hell, as it's overpass city.
11:43:31 <Ampera> Halcyon, shut up you just want to keep me in your sex dungeon
11:43:33 <Ampera> I know how you work

11:48:16 <Ampera> maxwell cat.
11:48:24 <Halcyon> I hate it
11:48:31 <Ampera> I hate you
11:48:44 <Halcyon> The feeling is mutual then
11:48:44 <Ampera> and your shitty ass shoes
11:49:07 <Halcyon> Actually I ordered new running shoes, should get here by tomorrow.
11:49:21 <Halcyon> The one's I currently use are about 20 years old and are pretty shitty
11:49:31 <Halcyon> There is only so much hot glue that will keep them together
11:49:47 <Ampera> only 1 year younger than I am
11:49:50 <T3sl4> CatSpin CatSpin CatSpin
11:49:58 <Ampera> damn you're old Hal
11:50:11 <Halcyon> They will be relegated to gardening/mowing shoes.
11:50:21 <Halcyon> Hahah fuck off Ampera, at least I still look young :P
11:50:22 <Ampera> see? T3sl4 gets it
11:50:22 <T3sl4> meowing shoes
11:50:56 <Ampera> Halcyon, miracle why, you obviously don't run enough in less than 20 years to wear out one pair of shoes
11:51:16 <Halcyon> Ampera: Correct. It's only recently I started exercising again.
11:51:17 <Ampera> I've worn soles smooth 2-3 years
11:51:40 <Halcyon> I was my fittest in my first 5 years of being in the cops, then when I got a lab/desk job, it slowly made me lazy.
11:51:50 <Ampera> *and fat
11:51:58 <Ampera> <3
11:52:01 <T3sl4> huggable*
11:52:09 <T3sl4> huggableier*
11:52:14 <Halcyon> Nah I never really got fat, I didn't put *that* much weight on. But I was a little soft around the middle.
11:52:26 <Ampera> and around the head area
11:52:45 <Halcyon> I'm actually my heaviest now but only a small amount of it is fat.
11:53:31 <Ampera> The rest is the sheer size of your massive fucking cock
11:54:29 <T3sl4> Ampera, stop projecting
11:54:46 * T3sl4 hugs Ampera's giant fucking cock head
11:55:13 <Ampera> you're dead wrong
11:55:27 <Ampera> I have a cute, feminine dick just like electrohead likes it
11:55:48 <Ampera> I'm glad I do, it's made our relationship so much more magical
11:55:53 <T3sl4> ew, dick
11:55:58 <T3sl4> i meant your chicken, pervert
11:56:02 <Halcyon> Since I'm not wearing any clothes yet I went and weighed myself.... 97 kg exactly.
11:56:14 <Ampera> wtf is a kg
11:56:19 <T3sl4> 2.2lbs
11:56:23 <Ampera> wow
11:56:30 <Ampera> you weigh only 2.2lbs Halcyon?
11:56:34 <Ampera> featherweight
11:56:43 <Halcyon> I could play football if that it didn't suck.... or was a sport
11:56:57 <T3sl4> yeah, i could take at least 2.3lbs of cock
11:57:01 <Ampera> I am around 70kgs last I checked
11:57:01 <T3sl4> i mean what?
11:57:07 <Halcyon> 214-odd pounds
11:57:18 <Ampera> 160-170lbs
11:57:31 <Ampera> at least I will be if I continue to not eat for days :)
11:57:42 <Halcyon> And keep shitting
11:58:03 <Halcyon> Speaking of poop.... back soon....
11:58:28 <T3sl4> !coffee Halcyon

11:58:38 <Ampera> I haven't had tea since sunday I think
11:58:41 <Ampera> saturday
11:58:43 <T3sl4> i choose to read that as "slides into"
11:58:44 <Ampera> or whatever, idk
12:04:03 * electrohead punches Ampera in the throat <3
12:04:14 <electrohead> yooo, lol
12:04:36 <Ampera> electrohead, I know you're scared of gay people but that doesn't mean you have to get violent.
12:04:56 <Ampera> man up and accept the femdick
12:05:54 <Ampera> trans people anyways, idk about gay
12:06:30 * arch strikes fear into the heart of T3sl4: https://i.imgur.com/sA2hgy4.jpg
12:07:15 <T3sl4> ew
12:07:30 <arch> there is powerful EMI at work here
12:07:54 <arch> i hope someone got my two references there
12:09:15 <arch> can you imagine if Boondocks came out today? would be a shitstorm
12:09:33 <Ampera> arch, I need to watch that show
12:09:37 <Ampera> I've only ever seen bits and pieces
12:09:39 <Ampera> it seems like a riot
12:09:47 <arch> highly recommend it. oc, don't take it too seriously
12:10:22 <Ampera> of course, I have a brain developed enough to where I can consume media with context, and understand as well as enjoy it for what it is.
12:10:29 <arch> :D
12:12:07 <steve30> i need new shoes
12:12:17 * arch hands steve30 some blue suede shoes
12:12:28 <arch> i stole em from elvis' grave
12:14:50 <Ampera> how are things going arch
12:20:41 <arch> long day. had to set up a network stack on prem
12:21:08 <arch> i usually don't do on prem shit, but this was a once in a blue moon type of thing
12:21:21 <Ampera> sounds like fun
12:21:38 <Ampera> I got to do other people's job today :)
12:21:48 <arch> actually, it was, believe it or not. the aws networking and virtual networking just isnt as fun a hardware hands on type of fun
12:21:51 <Ampera> nothing like breaking and fixing in the same go
12:22:02 <Ampera> of course
12:22:13 <Ampera> network tech is probably one of my many lost callings
12:22:32 <arch> one thing i would never wish to be is a network engineer. id never get sleep lol
12:22:33 <Ampera> I really wish I knew more about networking. I'm better than I used to be, but I'm still pretty stupid in terms of networking
12:24:00 <arch> what counts as "other people's job"? i kinda have to babysit senior devs pretty often. people who you'd think should know some basic networking stuff
12:24:38 <Ampera> so, I am technically manual QA
12:24:47 <Ampera> so I'm not supposed to babysit QA sites on the backend
12:24:57 <Ampera> if shit breaks, we have dedicated people who are supposed to fix that
12:25:01 <arch> ahh
12:25:16 <Ampera> deploy I ran today clobbered every single config for a service that destroyed an entire QA environment
12:25:35 <Ampera> ordinarily I'd fix it, but this deploy I need to do my job I reported as broken ages ago and nobody fixed
12:25:47 <arch> damn. we have separate aws accounts for dev/qa, and prod envs.
12:25:48 <Ampera> so I just sorta sat back, stopped caring, and left it for like 4hrs until someone else cleaned that shit up
12:25:52 <Ampera> nobody did, so I did it myself :/
12:26:01 <Ampera> don't get my started on AWS :)
12:26:04 <Ampera> *me
12:26:47 * arch makes a lambda function to nudify Ampera's pictures
12:27:08 * arch makes electrohead film
12:27:28 * T3sl4 currys arch's function
12:27:38 <Ampera> arch, no don't, he's scared of femdick
12:27:40 <arch> mmm, curry
12:27:44 <Ampera> you're scaring him!
12:28:58 <Ampera> curry sounds like food
12:29:01 <T3sl4> ooOOOOooo
12:29:06 <Ampera> my appetite is almost a thing anymore
12:31:57 <electrohead> I'm afraid to mention the shit show of the "server" at work, the atrocity of the network/networking, etc etc ..
12:32:06 * agpt3 feeds Ampera T3sl4's eggplant.
12:32:22 <electrohead> Remember now, it's an electronics repair facility, not a place where I get to beef everything up and fix the network bottlenecks
12:32:23 <electrohead> :/
12:32:31 * T3sl4 licks Ampera's peach
12:32:57 * Ampera makes sweet juices for T3sl4
12:33:35 <agpt3> Ampera that better not be tubgirl juices
12:34:17 * Ampera deports agpt3 back to canada
12:34:36 <T3sl4> i meeean
12:35:01 * agpt3 liberates all remaining Florida oranges first.

12:35:55 <gremlinz> heh
12:35:58 <electrohead> o.o
12:36:17 <arch> dont forget the tape drive there (3rd from the bottom of the rack)
12:36:17 * T3sl4 rubs his eggplant on electrohead
12:36:38 <electrohead> arch: is it organized yet?
12:37:08 <arch> well, it was organized before i was laid off thanks to Obama, i mean covid
12:37:16 <arch> but now it';s back to the same mess
12:37:21 <agpt3> "Yeah lets just place another 4u on top of the cabinets becuase while we have the space, we don't have the space."
12:37:38 <electrohead> lol
12:38:03 <electrohead> I love how the faceplate of the UPS is just chilling not attached
12:38:06 <agpt3> "Or maybe we have the space, but not the right screws. The fell somewhere."
12:38:25 <arch> dude, i tell ya, that server room was a fire hazard
12:38:35 <arch> there was 12V UPS batteries lying around, with their caps off
12:38:49 <electrohead> The extension cord is a nice touch, lol
12:39:14 <arch> yeah, that picture will trigger most engineers and electricians

12:45:55 <arch> difference between well paid contractors vs already under pressure IT team with minimum time to spare
12:46:09 <arch> well paid and with plenty of time to spare
12:46:14 <arch> also, it was from scratch
12:46:29 <arch> much muuuuch harder to do when the on prem network can't go down for more than a few hours (if even that)
12:47:47 <arch> if you need something that functions, you can hire me and end up with the abomination above--it'll work, but it'll be ugly; or you can pay a specialist like T3sl4 and pay out the ass, but you'll have a product that works nicely and looks nice too :D
12:48:39 <arch> hmm..i wonder what the ugliest PCB design is. i wonder if there are some examples

12:54:20 <electrohead> yeah I'm starting to up my prices a bit
12:54:39 <steve30> I think I'll do some more photos
12:54:55 <arch> and, not to talk shit, because this product does work, but the PCB layout...is ugly, and that's saying it nicely. https://i.imgur.com/AIDuV5M.png
12:55:42 <arch> thats what i'm making right now. of course, improving the PCB layout, and building it on copperclad, because it's easily enough doable on single sided copperclad
12:56:20 <T3sl4> arch: obvious autoroute is obvious
12:56:31 <T3sl4> would be ok with inner planes, but uh, yeah
12:56:32 <arch> the guy who made it used Altium
12:56:40 <arch> im porting it to kicad
12:56:54 <T3sl4> mixed tht and smt resistors
12:57:02 <arch> honestly, if you're releasing a project as open source, why are you using Altium in the first place
12:57:10 <arch> that's like if i develop the linux kernel on Windows

12:59:26 <electrohead> arch: if it works, it works.
12:59:34 <arch> true dat
12:59:40 <electrohead> that said though, they really stuck with autorouting?
12:59:42 <electrohead> rofl
12:59:54 <arch> dafuq are you expecting from a $300 product my man. better than paying $1k for a FLIR
12:59:59 <arch> and it works nicely too
13:00:02 <arch> check the youtube video
13:00:05 <electrohead> oh for sure lol
13:00:11 <electrohead> I've seen it already :)
13:00:13 <arch> :D
13:00:35 <electrohead> I can't stop laughing at that PCB though lol
13:00:45 <arch> derp, i said Altium. he used Eagle i meant
13:00:59 <T3sl4> was gonna say, what's all this N$1 bullshit
13:01:21 <arch> that N$1 bullshit is because i imported an Eagle project into KiCAD, and the procedure is not perfect
13:02:11 <arch> i am not going to install Eagle on a Windows 10 VM to open up that project. especially considering the schematic and layout is not rocket science level: https://github.com/maxritter/DIY-Thermocam/blob/master/Documents/Schematic_3.0.pdf
13:02:12 <EEVBot> [GitHub] [maxritter/DIY-Thermocam] Documents/Schematic_3.0.pdf @ master
13:03:59 <arch> damn, i wonder what the resistance and voltage drop of the lipo was through those thin af traces
13:04:10 <arch> probably quite a bit
13:04:33 <arch> oh, and he has no decoupling either
13:04:49 <arch> welp, that's why i'll upload my fork oc, once it's done
13:04:58 <arch> always looking to learn from others
13:05:06 <arch> sooo you guys better talk shit about my PCB when i upload it :D
13:05:31 <electrohead> so you are redesigning the PCB for the thermocam?
13:05:48 <arch> yes, on copperclad, and using SMT parts when possible for ease
13:08:43 <arch> here's what it looks like so far (incomplete): https://i.imgur.com/ElKyGCp.png ; https://i.imgur.com/wnzn0k2.png ; https://i.imgur.com/kZAk7O8.png ; https://i.imgur.com/hQBdkCC.png
13:10:25 <arch> man it's crazy how (relatively) complex designs you can make on copperclad
13:10:36 <arch> that captures the true spirit of DIY
13:11:25 <arch> also you make less pollution that way. don't need to order multiple PCBs that'll end up in the landfill and take hundreds of years (or more?) to decompose
13:11:41 <T3sl4> i draw the line around 50-100 parts
13:11:51 <T3sl4> so, 10 parts x 10 boards, probably just make em by hand
13:12:01 <T3sl4> 100 parts x 1 boards, fine
13:12:09 <T3sl4> 100 parts x just 2 boards, fuck that
13:12:12 <arch> but that's for dev and qa. not production stuff that you actually sell right?
13:12:35 <T3sl4> i sell stuff?
13:12:46 <arch> well, you sell your services more like
13:15:39 <arch> i can't put tall stuff on the bottom layer (ie copperclad layer), because the lipo battery is going to be on that layer, separated by a sticky tape
13:16:24 <arch> my dude soldered leads onto the lipo battery. i don't like that. so i'll put a JST PH header there and order a lipo battery (700mAh) off digikey with a PH header and i'm all set

13:21:45 <arch> here's my first kicad design, ca 2017. be ready to be amazed: https://i.imgur.com/MQXsNTv.png https://i.imgur.com/K0ECUu4.jpg
13:21:57 <electrohead> arch: I like it :)
13:22:12 <arch> ty :D
13:22:21 <electrohead> let me know when you are completely finished, as I would love to get a PCB made for the thermocam
13:22:57 <electrohead> also - fucking fail ... so, I just had to clean and sanitize a shelf in my fridge, as the chicken that was thawing out, apparently had a small hole in the bag >.<
13:23:07 <arch> eww
13:23:30 * T3sl4 slurps the fridge
13:23:39 * T3sl4 keels over and ded
13:24:37 <electrohead> lol
13:24:54 <electrohead> yeah I went to grab a beer, and noticed the odd smell that I smelled earlier, got worse
13:25:15 <arch> man, you gotta wash your happytime socks
13:25:17 <electrohead> I then actually looked in the fridge, and noticed the whole shelf was a pool
13:25:28 <electrohead> hrmm
13:25:41 <electrohead> made me think - I want to get socks that have 555 ICs on them
13:25:47 <arch> there's demon spawns growing in them now
13:25:49 <electrohead> already have a shirt with the schematic of the 555
13:25:51 <electrohead> lol
13:27:20 <electrohead> so anywho, I came across two old USB flash drive PCB's in my one bin, of USB connectors and parts
13:27:44 <electrohead> one works, the other doesn't. got thinking .. here, the one that doesn't work, was from when I was in okinawa, and that was a long time ago
13:27:54 <electrohead> so, data recovery time :D
13:29:27 <arch> what ya gonna do? transplant the nand chip onto a donor?
13:33:53 <electrohead> that's what I'm thinking
13:34:09 <electrohead> funny enough, that other flash drive PCB is very similar
13:34:17 <electrohead> about to go look at datasheets and pinouts
13:35:52 <arch> good luck!
13:43:49 <electrohead> thanks :P
14:12:31 <electrohead> so I double checked the diodes and inductors, all check good
14:12:47 <electrohead> yet, when I power it up, nada. no LED, nothing in dmesg
14:13:03 <electrohead> so, chips are off. just grabbing the camera to document this, and refilling the beer
15:12:12 <electrohead> nope. need to find a donor with the exact controller, damn

19:24:29 <MrMobodies> bargain for what I want it for
19:24:48 Join: watcher ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
19:24:55 <MrMobodies> I chose it from a list of supported charges from an old bit of software called "Logview V2"
19:25:28 <MrMobodies> so if there is a problem with the battery I will have a log of it's charging/discharging progress
19:26:36 <MrMobodies> I discovered Logview V2 as an alternative for the Conrad Charging program which works but it seems to occupy 100% cpu time and it looks like it was in 16bit
19:26:41 <MrMobodies> and that was in 2006
19:27:21 <MrMobodies> I have a Groupner 30 which is great 7a (that Estation 5a)
19:27:40 <MrMobodies> one problem with the groupner, no memory
19:28:02 <MrMobodies> that means everytime I power it on I have to set the program whereas that estation has a memory function

19:38:15 <MrMobodies> I didn't know it could go 65mph on lihtium
19:38:55 <MrMobodies> aah 2.4ghz and mine is 2006
19:39:15 <MrMobodies> it could have a different regulator to handle the higher voltage
19:40:31 <MrMobodies> aah silly me it is the same as the other lithium 11.1v
19:41:20 <MrMobodies> I have a question
19:41:41 <MrMobodies> do you think this looks like a firework?
19:41:51 <MrMobodies> https://www.hobbyrc.co.uk/images/thumbs/0013164_coddar-1500mah-6s-120c-lihv-battery.jpeg
19:42:15 <K> looks like a pack of forbiden cookies
19:42:43 <MrMobodies> it reminds me of firework night and I have had one for over a decade
19:43:10 <MrMobodies> I bet that would go up just the same
19:44:11 <K> like these - https://imgur.com/a/5S9E1H9
19:44:12 <EEVBot> [url] Imgur: The magic of the Internet | imgur.com
19:44:13 <MrMobodies> forbidden cookies... no edibe?
19:44:43 <MrMobodies> here, that phone
19:44:52 <MrMobodies> someone gave me a box of phones at the local pubhouse
19:45:13 <K> ones in your pic prolly are some spicy lithium cookies
19:45:15 <MrMobodies> it had that phone in there, I'll check when I go back
19:45:33 <K> i like this phone
19:45:34 <MrMobodies> it had a Motorola Razor (2004 mdoel)
19:45:39 <MrMobodies> Nokia
19:45:41 <K> ooh, show me
19:45:42 <MrMobodies> looks similar
19:45:46 <K> which one?
19:45:56 <K> i had a razor v3, original
19:45:58 <MrMobodies> I don't have that here I left it there too many phones
19:46:04 <MrMobodies> I'll bring it later
19:46:13 <K> but it got drencehd in champagne and needs repair
19:46:17 <MrMobodies> A samsung 2013 phone 3g
19:46:28 <MrMobodies> and some other nokia stuff
19:46:34 <MrMobodies> I'll bring the box back later
19:46:39 <MrMobodies> and see if that is the same phone
19:46:40 <K> k
19:46:48 <MrMobodies> I think it might misisng the back cover
19:46:59 <MrMobodies> and it had a 1 1.5mp camera in the back?
19:47:45 <MrMobodies> but the gentleman who gave them to me has a nother box
19:47:55 <MrMobodies> which might have the charger for the Motorola
19:48:08 <MrMobodies> one biggest disappoint about it is that rubber they put around it
19:48:17 <MrMobodies> as a decoration it ruins it
19:48:17 <K> yeah
19:48:20 <MrMobodies> all stick and horrible
19:48:30 <MrMobodies> why can't they leave it alone not bother
19:48:35 <MrMobodies> it'll save them some money
19:48:54 <MrMobodies> I mean the manufacturing costs of coating it in rubber
19:49:17 <MrMobodies> make a wonderful product and they do one thing to ruin it for some people like me
19:49:57 <MrMobodies> 2009, Logitech MK and EX keyboards in PCWORLD £19.99 (aa batteries)
19:49:58 <K> https://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_razr_v3-853.php - this one, but i had it in "dark titanium" colour
19:49:59 <EEVBot> [url] Motorola RAZR V3 - Full phone specifications | www.gsmarena.com
19:50:13 <MrMobodies> their high end £60 keyboard had the rubber on it
19:50:32 <MrMobodies> a friend gave me their expensive one as the rubber was peeling off the paint of chipping away
19:50:53 <MrMobodies> that lasted him years an I still have the EX and MK keyboard nad mice to this day
19:51:01 <MrMobodies> no rubber or paint to chip off
19:51:24 <MrMobodies> yes
19:51:31 <MrMobodies> that would be one i would have chosen
19:52:06 <MrMobodies> I think what it is, if someone can afford a £60 keyboard they know they are rich and can afford to buy it again
19:52:30 <MrMobodies> so they put the rubber and paint so when it wears away it puts the user off
19:52:35 <K> maybe they buy bulk
19:52:36 <MrMobodies> and entices them to buy another
19:53:29 <MrMobodies> Oh I have a bulk of Logitech Logitech EX110 mouse and keyboard
19:53:35 <MrMobodies> I had been buying them second hand too
19:54:44 <MrMobodies> https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/bBgAAOSwXDBjvITS/s-l400.jpg
19:54:53 <MrMobodies> I had two mice fail many mant years ago
19:55:08 <MrMobodies> but I can always push button on the receiver and join another
19:55:40 <MrMobodies> without the need of, finding the appriopriate Logitech tool, there are two of them, unifying and another
19:56:10 <MrMobodies> not all receivers seem to work, I had one receiver pick up two keyboards but another unifying dongle only detecting one of them
19:56:38 <MrMobodies> the only I don't like is the chancel and back button on the left
19:56:54 <MrMobodies> I use to press those by accident and i think it was a stupid idea
19:57:18 <MrMobodies> but they seem reliable, very good with battery charge
19:57:36 <MrMobodies> mouse seem to work on a number of surfaces
19:57:39 <MrMobodies> no trouble
19:57:53 <MrMobodies> apart from a few worn keys and sweat marks as wear and tear
19:58:08 <MrMobodies> I like my things to last
19:58:46 <MrMobodies> when I like something and I see it has lasted, I go and find more
19:59:04 <MrMobodies> for spares
19:59:08 <MrMobodies> that my way of certainity
20:00:17 <MrMobodies> oh another thing is that the holding clips snap on them as with many keyboards I have seen
20:00:33 <MrMobodies> but I use large rubber adhesive feet
20:01:01 <MrMobodies> oh look: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/124495249554
