45:45 <Nothing\> every memory you have up until this very moment is false. You only just came into existence right this very moment and all memories you have were fabricated to create the illusion of the past having happened. Think about it. Or don't but think you did.

50:27 <Nothing\> K, I already had meatloaf, mashed kartoffel and corn for breakfast
51:02 <K> ah ok
51:30 <Nothing\> i was considering getting a breakfast sandwich from mcdonald's but I decided against it.
51:59 <Nothing\> I've been getting into the bad habit of eating 4 pints of ben and jerry's a week for the last 3 months I really need to stop before i start putting on weight suddenly, as i do.
52:25 <Nothing\> i eat a pint a day for 4 days then take a 3 day break lol
52:30 <Nothing\> some days it's all i eat.
53:04 <K> the price of ben&jerry makes me wince too hard
53:14 <K> at least here
53:20 <Nothing\> yeah it's not cheap. $9CAD for 2
53:26 <Nothing\> and taht's the cheap price
53:36 <Nothing\> lol my cat's trying to eat an apple
53:50 <Nothing\> she's chewing on the stem and nuzzling the apple itself

54:29 <K> 10 monies for 500ml is too sour
54:52 <Nothing\> K, the other thing that bothers me is the only flavours i can find usually have chocolate in them and I really don't care for chocolate. I'll tolerate it, but not in every bloody flavour that's available.
55:11 <Nothing\> K, that's like alcohol here
55:49 <Nothing\> actually i don't even know how alcohol prices have sky rocketed even more in the 10 years or so since i've drank

57:23 <Nothing\> T3sl4, is Picard really in its final season?
57:36 <Nothing\> i don't care for it but my brother won't shut up about it =P
57:37 <T3sl4> i think?
57:40 <Nothing\> huh
57:54 <Nothing\> that and this new superman show
58:03 <Nothing\> "new" though it sounds like it's several seasons in
58:08 <T3sl4> apparently the later seasons are better? idk, the trailer or first ep or two were pretty urgh to be
58:10 <Nothing\> lois and superman or something
58:11 <T3sl4> to me*
58:37 <Nothing\> tbh i only ever got into TNG and a little into TOS.
58:51 <Nothing\> I never watched either when they were actually on TV though.
59:35 <K> i found voyager quite nice
59:50 <K> tos is bit too hard on eyes
59:59 <Nothing\> too young to get into it really. I just didn't like serious shows. I'm kinda the same way now. I prefer something light hearted with minimal conflict. But I'm just overly sensitive and easily triggered so I maintain a bubble of unrealistic positivity around me. Or try to.
00:11 <Nothing\> K, I've been curious about Deep Space 9 or Voyager
00:31 <Nothing\> I liked quantum leap so whichever one had Sam in it piqued my curiosity
00:45 <Nothing\> shit that reminds me, you know the guy who played Al in Quantum Leap died?
00:52 <Nothing\> his name escapes me suddenly...
01:13 <Nothing\> dean stockwell!
02:13 <Nothing\> man i wanna go back and watch those now. That was a damn good show.
02:35 <arch> K, for a second i thought you were referring to one of the Daft Punk songs
03:02 * arch goes around the world around the world around the world around the world
03:02 <K> heh
04:09 <Nothing\> oh snap diablo iv is going to be released in the next few days
04:26 <Nothing\> i didn't even know it was close to release. Thought it was still in production.

06:01 <Nothing\> a 1 bit cpu
06:19 <Nothing\> be interesting to see how the heck this works
06:40 <Nothing\> seems like it's meant to be used like a PLU
06:47 <coppice> That was a useful device that wasn't understood well enough to get the market it deserved
07:01 <coppice> There have been lots of one bit processors
07:04 <T3sl4> https://i.imgur.com/FvyNgz0.jpeg
11:40 <arch> fucking hell, chase has a savings interest rate of 0.02%
11:45 <arch> im moving all my shit to amex
11:59 <coppice> There was a time when the world's most powerful computers were one bit processors. Lots of them, working in parallel. For lower levels of integration its the way to get the most bang per gate - see MPP
12:39 <T3sl4> i wonder what a savings account ever was supposed to be because it's never been more than pennies interest as long as i've been alive
13:15 <coppice> T3sl4: you 're young. Until the late 80s savings accounts worked well
13:38 <T3sl4> does anyone actually open them anymore? why?
13:48 <arch> currently, amex high yield savings is at 3.75%
13:50 <jaymax> I recall a 2.5% savings account, before the 2008 GFC
14:03 <T3sl4> i suppose it's a relic that they can't just remove
14:53 <coppice> T3sl4: until the mass financial deregulation in London and New York in the 80s, most mortgages were loaned in the savings of older people who had either cleared their mortgage, or greatly reduced it
15:05 <coppice> on the savings
15:38 <T3sl4> that'd be cool
15:48 <jaymax> It's because the banks are not incentivized to compete for customers. But if customers left for a 5% 1yr UST bond, then that can cause a bank run.
16:44 <jaymax> Then banks get "bailed out". The customers continue to be the loser in all this.
17:45 <coppice> In the UK we had things called "Building Societies" and in the US you have S&Ls which were heavily limited to lending for mortgages and a few other "safe" things. When they deregulated in an unbalanced way in the US the S&Ls famous blew up. In the UK they didn't do anything that dumb, but they deregulated in a saner way. until they just became banks.
17:52 <coppice> you had
18:12 <Nothing\> there, i bought some 35mm piezo discs in the hopes i can make some janky ultrasonic humidifier thing
18:24 <Nothing\> or do other experiments with ultrasound
19:01 <coppice> Nothing\: Why? Ultrasonic humidifiers are quite cheap
19:29 <Nothing\> I tried with those "piezo buzzers" you sometimes see, these things: these things, https://tinyurl.com/ybxd6y9w

19:44 <Nothing\> coppice, oh i have one. I'm just curious about exploring the science
19:53 Quit: Erlend^SE ([email protected]) Connection closed
19:56 <Nothing\> mainly of what happens to impurities in the water
20:06 <T3sl4> you breathe them
20:09 <Nothing\> because i know somehow it makes any dissolved salts airborn
20:10 Join: Erlend^SE ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
20:11 <Nothing\> yeah heh
20:30 <Nothing\> T3sl4, actually more they settle on anything the least bit staticky
20:33 * arch breathes the flux fumes emanating from T3sl4
20:56 * T3sl4 effervesces
21:01 <Nothing\> as for breathing the salts, i don't think it's a danger
21:03 * arch masturbates
21:08 <coppice> Nothing\: read the instructions. They tell you what happens to the impurities
21:21 <Nothing\> if you think about it, first off it's no worse than breathing the salts that come off of ocean spray
21:56 <T3sl4> i mean, it might have legionella in the tank
22:04 <coppice> Nothing\: tell that to a nomad in the desert
22:07 <Nothing\> second, imagining what the salt particles would be likely to do once in the lungs, I could see them just being absorbed into the bloodstream after being dissolved in the mucosal fluids of the lungs
22:09 <T3sl4> but that's a pretty far fetched example i'm guessing :P
22:21 <Nothing\> coppice, lol mine didn't
22:25 <Nothing\> coppice, but that's just salts
22:41 * T3sl4 pours bath salts in Nothing\'s nebulizer
22:51 <Nothing\> i want to know what happens if put a similar ultrasound... sound into some other solution
22:56 <Nothing\> like hypochlorite
23:00 <Nothing\> or hcl
23:03 <Nothing\> LOL
23:07 <coppice> The instruction leaflet for mine warned about powdery buildings around the machine being possible in hard water areas
23:32 <Nothing\> coppice, mine said nothing. I had to research it and find out online and possibly by consulting people here.
23:43 <Nothing\> coppice, btw are you familiar with rotary subwoofers?
24:14 <coppice> Nothing\: aren't they just Leslies with a really bad response?
24:21 <Nothing\> noooooo
24:48 <Nothing\> they're specialized fans with variable pitch blades that allow them to produce acoustic waves between 0 and 20hz
24:59 <Nothing\> the one i saw demoed was 300 watts
25:16 <Nothing\> and at 5hz it sounded like the room was being buffeted by severe winds
25:40 <Nothing\> that is, the room was shaking and what not. Not that you could hear the 5hz itself.
25:45 <Nothing\> just all the harmonics
26:09 <coppice> Oh, the ones they use in cinemas for effects? They aren't really subwoofers. They are more effect generators, but they work well for things like disaster movies
26:45 <Nothing\> it sorta reminded me of that one "doomsday machine" tesla invented that uses resonant modes in a building's frame to destroy it with a device that can supposedly fit in the palm of your hand
27:12 <Nothing\> coppice, i'm not sure if those are the same ones. I've never heard of them being used for that. But I'll show you the demo I saw.

28:08 <Nothing\> lol and meanwhile before that i came across a video of a guy "generating ultrasound" with something like an 8hz signal through a regular diaphragm speaker
28:22 <Nothing\> which was generating nothing. But he said you just couldn't hear it lol.
29:01 <Nothing\> I just love the way the room shakes.
30:05 <Nothing\> oh hey coppice i was hoping you might be able to clear up some confusing about piezoelectric speakers for me
30:33 <Nothing\> i'd always been told that these are piezoelectric: https://tinyurl.com/ybxd6y9w
30:34 <EEVBot> [url] AliExpress - Online Shopping for Popular Electronics, Fashion, Home & Garden, Toys & Sports, Automobiles and More. | tinyurl.com
31:31 <coppice> most of those are piezo, but they aren't really speakers. They just resonate and produce a single tone
31:36 <Nothing\> but upon examination, they appear to just be a coil with a magnet inside and a thin piece of metal stuck to the magnet to act as a diaphragm. So it doesn't seem like there's anything piezoelectric about them.
31:44 <Nothing\> coppice, haha thank you
31:46 <Nothing\> i knew it!
32:08 <Nothing\> i knew it before i even opened one up, i had my suspicion when i noticed they were magnetic. Why should a piezo buzzer be magnetic?
33:15 <coppice> they may be magnetic. Piezo used to be the cheap way to make them, but that may have changed. Many things where piezo used to be the cheap solution have been passed by by the alternatives
33:46 <Nothing\> It's still really interesting though because I remember an anecdote about a soldier who, as a POW in vietnam, built a foxhole radio and even built his own speaker using a can, a coil, a nail, and the lid of the can. And I always wondered how on earth you made a speaker out of those things. But it made perfect sense as soon as I saw the insides of one of these "piezo" speakers I have.
34:38 <Nothing\> it almost makes me wanna try making my own
34:39 <T3sl4> getting magnetism for a speaker in those conditions would be tricky
35:03 <Nothing\> T3sl4, yeah actually he probably had to exploit the hysteresis of the nail and pre-magnetize it
35:27 <T3sl4> if you're lucky, find a magnet, or even magnetite
35:35 <Nothing\> and even then, i know from experience nails don't get too magnetic just from hysteresis
36:00 <Nothing\> T3sl4, he probably did find a piece of magnet they didn't mention
37:49 <Nothing\> heh that was actually one of the first experiments/demos i did when I got into electronics. Putting neodiddlium magnets in a 1.25in coil of copper wire I taped 7 or 8 turns together on and then connect a 9v and watch the magnet dance
38:47 <Nothing\> heh it's funny I tried using those speakers as humidifiers even though i knew they weren't piezoelectric
39:22 <Nothing\> at audible frequencies, they worked and were perfectly audible under water. Even once I made sure they were filled up with water and there was no air trapped in them.
39:44 <Nothing\> You'd expect the water would be really hard for such a piddly little driver to move around
39:55 <coppice> There used to be some non resonant piezo actuators used for hi-fi tweeters. I think those have gone
40:06 <T3sl4> water is a better impedance match to a raw disc than air is
41:00 <coppice> Most cheap record players used non-resonant piezo pickups, as they produced a much higher voltage than a magnetic pickup, and simplified the amp. then transistors amps brought down the cost of gain
42:36 <coppice> piezo actuators for water just put the water on the the piezo material, with maybe a thin film for corrosion protection. piezo actuators for air have a chunk of stuff on the piezo material as an impedance matcher
43:08 <coppice> try looking at the parking sensors on a car

18:15 <arch> man, if you think about it, being bald is awesome. no need to go to the barber, faster drying after showers, more efficient cooling due to sweat evaporation. the only downside is -30% debuff to charming women. worth it.

30:58 <Nothing\> if you think about it though, if the universe were a simulation or illusion or what have you, time in the "parent universe", that is the universe in which our's exists, would operate independently of time in our universe.

10:31 <MrMobodies> Hello
10:41 <MrMobodies> came across this article:

10:44 <EEVBot> [url] Woman cut pet hamster in half while still alive and ate him - LancsLive | www.lancs.live
11:17 <MrMobodies> do you think they should have sentenced her to a mental institute?
11:44 <jaymax> Should have sentenced her to a damn cooking class.
13:56 <jaymax> "Mr. Nibbles" ... Damn I need to be careful what I say lest I get accused of blaming the victim.
14:08 <MrMobodies> she reminds me of this person
14:10 <MrMobodies> https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BZTY1ZTkwYTAtYjk3ZS00MzVhLTgyMjAtZGRiYWFlMjAxMjQ4XkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyNzQ1NjgzOTA@._V1_.jpg
14:33 <MrMobodies> Giggerota out of Lexx
14:50 * jaymax thought it'd be a photo of Ozzy Osborne
15:27 <MrMobodies> but that is cruelty, she terrifies the hamster by stabbing a ball
15:41 <MrMobodies> then does the same thing to the hamster then eats it
16:11 <MrMobodies> I don't know how someone could eat a hamster like that
16:17 <arch> lol
16:46 <MrMobodies> considering it is a pet it is suppose to be part of the household
16:49 <jaymax> Absolutely unnecessary. Bats are more plentiful.
16:59 <coppice> scite &
19:05 <jaymax> > considering it is a pet
19:05 <jaymax> https://i.imgur.com/h9tbwcH.jpeg
19:38 <jaymax> She's simply thinking ahead.
20:01 <jaymax> I cannot judge her for thinking ahead.
22:00 <MrMobodies> "All animals want to live" but that is if they are found
22:18 <jaymax> Judges exist for judging people though. Maybe seek one of those.
25:00 <steve30> Humans are designed to eat animals, just like other animals are designed to eat other animals
25:12 <steve30> but yeah, eating a hamster is weird
25:25 <MrMobodies> and some can eat humans too when given a cance
25:36 <MrMobodies> like the big snakes
26:17 <MrMobodies> that hamster was suppose to be a pet, part of her family.
26:55 <MrMobodies> and she put it through hell
27:15 <MrMobodies> after instilling fear into it
27:26 <MrMobodies> for it to squeel when she stabbed the ball
27:39 <MrMobodies> she must have been cruel and tortured it before
28:12 <jaymax> I'll skip the shitposting for a moment: if I were to care about what bath-salts-humanity has to offer, I'd be mentally crippled. Karma is a bitch for those types and that's good enough for me.

07:51 <jaymax> Seems more like a human trap (inspired by mousetrap) to me.
08:33 <jaymax> Though, I don't game.
08:39 <electrohead> so, there are buttons on the top
08:45 <electrohead> hence why it looks like it's grabbing you
08:53 <electrohead> I'd get it, just to mess with it
09:03 <electrohead> but, that's if I would even think about getting it
09:46 <jaymax> Get two, so if does latch on, it won't allow the free hand to unplug them.
10:48 <jaymax> Or get three, coz latching on could still allow for sexy times.

20:21 <electrohead> browsing on amazon for other items, came across a review for a programmable power strip (built in timer). no joke, the title of the review: "time changes on its own"
21:02 <electrohead> had a picture of a clock, plus the time on the unit. ... the time was running a bit faster than what it should
21:13 <electrohead> "time changes on its own" .. no shit.
22:56 Quit: Tezzers ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
23:10 <jaymax> Did clock crystals end up with shit accuracy into the internet age? Or perhaps with the expectation of NTP-adjustments manufacturers simplified the RTC circuits?
25:21 <jaymax> My 386 back in the day drifted a few minutes over the course of a year - seems like modern tech cannot keep their RTC's drifting less than 5 minutes a month.
26:04 <electrohead> Heh, yeah quite some products are like that, sadly
26:20 <jaymax> > "time changes on its own" .. no shit.
26:20 <jaymax> Could have been an assertion about daylight savings.
26:47 <electrohead> Nah, the time display was two minutes fast, lol
27:10 <jaymax> The shift drifts it is, then.
27:19 <jaymax> *shit
28:03 * electrohead drifts into jaymax
28:29 * jaymax offers an inelastic collision
30:56 * electrohead points at the stiffy, instead
32:09 * jaymax backs away slowly; beeping

38:49 <coppice> jaymax: people don't care about clocks drifting these days. They are usually updated by NTP
39:36 <jaymax> I care but that's because I don't trust IoT

44:09 Part: DogWomble ([email protected]) from #EEVblog (Leaving)
44:11 <electrohead> GPS receivers are a dime a dozen, and with proper networking, you're good to go
44:11 <jaymax> On my router, yes.
45:05 <jaymax> Out of principle, it should not be expected.
46:33 <jaymax> I use RPIs on my internal network but that's admittedly a different situation because those don't keep time while powered off.
49:07 <electrohead> Yeah I have a GPS receiver with RTC, hooked up to the r.pi, that controls my traffic light
50:52 <jaymax> green light.... RED LIGHT

39:24 <Ampera> I ordered a set of metric machine screws off amazon
39:34 <Ampera> https://i.imgur.com/uc50dOk.png
39:46 <Ampera> I got in my email for some reason
47:01 <K> they think you are scew-impaired
47:43 <Ampera> I've noticed an odd trend where metric/SI things will get dumbed down or unnecessarily converted for Americans when we really don't need it.
48:14 <Ampera> I went and looked up Ender 3's on Amazon, and all the bed measurements were in Inches. I have never seen someone use inches in CAD for a 3D printer.
48:56 <Ampera> we're not gonna nuke you if you tell us mm instead of inches :P
53:39 <T3sl4> Ampera is the last person i would suspect to be the king of screw
56:09 <Ampera> expect the unexpected
56:19 <Ampera> I somehow don't have enough screws coming out of every single nook, corner, and orifice.
56:35 <Ampera> I actually kinda like these screw organizer trays too. It'll probably be useful for future 3D printing
57:53 * electrohead coffees T3sl4
58:00 * T3sl4 sips
58:50 <electrohead> Three day weekends are the awesome.
59:40 * T3sl4 drowns electrohead in booze
59:50 <Ampera> why do you get one?
59:53 <Ampera> >:(
59:59 <electrohead> I took the day off
00:02 <Ampera> nice
00:15 <Ampera> I was very tempted to do that, but I have actual work that I need (and kinda want) to do
00:24 <electrohead> at least once a month, I take a friday off
00:39 <Ampera> I'm building, for a side purpose, a dynamic command line parser based off reflection.
00:59 <Ampera> You can dynamically link new commands at runtime, and it will find them for you, without any special registration.
01:14 <electrohead> usually it's to get shit done, since I work day shift, and on my own; technically there's one or two things that I could do today with the time, but not pressing - therefore, it's a fuck-all day lol
01:14 Quit: modrobert ([email protected]) EOF from client
01:18 <Ampera> It also handles parsing and type safety for arguments, and can switch between human readable and JSON output.

02:12 <Ampera> you're innocent after all
02:17 <T3sl4> sounds cool Ampera
02:51 <Ampera> It can also dynamically generate help output for commands, by using the argument types, names, and descriptions.
03:15 <Ampera> even if you don't really keep the names and descriptions up to date, it should still generate some sort of useful help.
10:29 <T3sl4> i did a few bits of something like that for my serial console, not dynamic ofc since it's just whatever's in flash, and written in C
