02:46:53 <rust_collector> K ah, yes, we in theory have 2 written languages, that are norwegian. then you have a couple more, for the "indians", but that is a different thing. you have bokm�l (book language), which is used in most areas, except the south west. and nynorsk (new norwegian), which is a language invented by an idiot, trying to make a version closer to what we used to have, before we were under the swedes and danes.
03:18:22 <K> which one is tought in schools?
03:20:49 <rust_collector> depends on where you live

03:46:16 <steve30> I managed to shoot my first proper 4k video today
03:46:29 <steve30> To make up for it, I also shot some 720p video

04:39:47 <rust_collector_> 720 is not bad
04:59:31 <steve30> The tour of my local park's surveilance cameras will be in 4K
04:59:51 <steve30> The musical coke bottles in ALDI will be in 720p courtesy of my GoPro
05:24:28 <Ysjoelfir> K, wait till you learn that there are actually 2 other sub languages to these 2 official ones as well
05:24:59 <rust_collector_> there are dialects, who might as well be different languages too, yes
05:25:34 <Ysjoelfir> I was refering to that riksmål and høgnorsk
05:27:43 <Ysjoelfir> as far as I understoof it, both are only used by people many leftie germans would call right wing extremists, that like to keep things the way they were and donæt want to change stuff for the sake of changing it to be more modern
05:29:42 <rust_collector_> riksmål is bokbål, høgnorsk is pretty much dialects of nynorsk
05:35:03 <Ysjoelfir> is it really? wiki says, riksmål is used from people that dont want the reformation done by bokmål, eg. they prefer to speak danish :-P and Høgnorsk is supposedly close to some Landsmål from some Ivar Aasen, so they decided to not follow reformations from 1917. so, a pretty modern language :D
05:35:23 <Ysjoelfir> I think all that is pretty fascinating
05:36:06 <Ysjoelfir> I mean, we have our "officially accepted dialects", of course, but not really 2 or more "official languages".
05:37:46 <rust_collector_> ivar made nynorsk. but yeah, høgnorsk is sort of that, just a very conservative version. riksmål is sort of in between bok and ny, as a compromise. but in general, no one really use either, as we all have the dialects, that mess up any order to things
05:44:36 <Ysjoelfir> hehehe, I noticed the latter.

06:36:02 <Nothing\> hey, quick question
06:36:07 <rust_collector> 7!
06:36:20 <Nothing\> how do i determine the forward voltage of an led with no resistor on it?
06:36:23 <rust_collector> well, 7 or more. go go go
06:36:27 <Nothing\> or is it just the battery's voltage
06:37:04 <rust_collector> did you try the diode tester thing on the meter?
06:37:46 <Nothing\> oh yeah
06:37:57 <Nothing\> lol i don't have an actual diode tester, but it has the functionality
06:38:05 <Nothing\> dur
06:38:11 <Nothing\> i knew i was overthinking this
06:38:46 <Nothing\> but yeah, i just take an RGB, clip the unneeded leads, and use electrical tape to put it on a coin cell and hide it in a bush where people will see it
06:39:25 <rust_collector> I think around 7 or more
06:39:38 <Nothing\> they're bright enough with 220ohm so i think that will do nicely to extend the life of them
06:40:20 <Nothing\> anyways, thanks rust_collector

09:14:12 <EEVBot> [wikipedia] Blackburn Buccaneer | "The Blackburn Buccaneer is a British carrier-capable attack aircraft designed in the 1950s for the Royal Navy (RN). Designed and initially produced by Blackburn Aircraft at Brough, it was later officially known as the Hawker Siddeley Buccaneer when Blackburn became a part of the Hawker Siddeley Group, but this name is rarely used. The Buccaneer was originally designed in response to the Soviet Union introducing the […]"
09:15:52 <coppice> For a long time the Buccaneer was the world's only plane which could blast through the sound barrier at sea level without fear of breaking up

09:27:06 <electrohead> Lol
09:27:53 <coppice> Halcyon: is this a kopi luwak reference?
09:28:11 <Halcyon> Heh no. The poop from me. Not cat poop coffee
09:28:12 <electrohead> Heh
09:28:27 * Halcyon feeds coffee beans to steve30
09:28:32 <electrohead> coppice: I've actually tried that once. Don't understand the hype about it
09:28:51 <Halcyon> I haven't tried it but I've heard others say the same. Described it as "meh"
09:29:05 <electrohead> Sure, it was smooth, butt .. eh
09:29:11 <Halcyon> Hehe Butt
09:29:22 <coppice> electrohead: its supposed to be free of any bitterness, and it seems to work
09:29:40 <Halcyon> You can get much nicer coffee for cheaper, without it coming out of a cat's asshole
09:29:56 <coppice> its a civet, not a cat
09:30:23 <electrohead> Lol
09:30:48 <electrohead> And yeah, it was very smooth tasting, not bitter like you mentioned. Would I have it again? Nah
09:31:02 <coppice> if you do business in Indonesia they seem to offer it to you as a test of your fortitude
10:26:33 <arch> does anyone here have ideas on using exhaust leaks leading out from the exhaust manifold down to the catalytic converter? i dont have a welder yet, so that's out of the question. also i refuse to pay mechanics outrageous money.
10:26:44 <arch> not using* i meant fixing*
10:27:17 <arch> i was thinking of using high temp rtv silicone. they're pinhole leaks. but they've popped the P0420 catalyst efficiency low CEL
10:47:42 <MrMobodies> Hello

10:48:32 <MrMobodies> What I understand: Brendan was expecting a Japanese TV crew
10:49:13 <MrMobodies> The Chinese lot turned up and thought Brendan was there to do the filming for the Japanese tv station
10:49:24 <MrMobodies> that's why they were nice to him
10:49:44 <MrMobodies> he thought they were the Japanese lot
10:50:08 <MrMobodies> it almost reminds me of a scene out of this film called Lock, Stock and to Smoking barrels
10:51:16 <MrMobodies> Group A steals drugs and hides them in a building. Next door also have drug dealers unbeknown to them who happeed to work for the dealer that next door stole off.
10:51:51 <MrMobodies> Group b discovers drugs and breaks in through a hole next door.
10:52:11 <MrMobodies> Group b boss supects they stole it so their manager is forced to reveal their address
10:52:28 <MrMobodies> Group a finds their drugs stolen and quickly traces it next door
10:53:17 <MrMobodies> Group B our out and as group they went to retrieve it Group B boss turns up with an army
10:53:48 <MrMobodies> they target the right people in that hapenned to be in wrong place by coincidence
11:17:23 <rust_collector> arch you get stuff that is a bit like bandages, that you can wrap pipes with, and it sets up, when heated. there is at least 2 versions, one seems to be plaster-like, and one is some kind of super sticky black crap
11:33:01 <remote> is this leak on a pipe or the exhaust manifold?
11:37:51 <rust_collector> and, is this on the honda thing, or...

11:38:57 <rust_collector> also and... just get a welder, they are cheap
11:55:25 <broccoli> Yep yep
11:55:25 <broccoli> im steamed
11:55:25 <broccoli> I have plenty of those big Beefy power supplies left over from ships where I’ve replaced their 20-year-old industrial grade power supplies with battery bus systems
11:55:25 <electrohead> !beer T3sl4
11:55:25 <broccoli> The industrial supplies are, I’m not sure what they’re called, a step down transformer with a rectifier and capacitor
11:55:25 <electrohead> oh yeah, the bot doesn't work ..
11:55:25 <broccoli> Instead of modern switching mode, power supplies
11:55:25 <electrohead> linear?
11:55:25 <broccoli> Which, honestly I trust less because they fail all the time whenever there’s a power surge
11:55:25 <broccoli> Is that what they’re called?

12:04:23 <arch> remote, it's a leak on the *pipe* that is coming out of the exhaust manifold, and going into the catalatic converter.
12:04:53 <arch> rust_collector, that is the plan. im a bit short on money this month, used up my funding for toys
12:05:08 <rust_collector> a welder is a great toy
12:05:24 <arch> yes, i will get it with my next paycheck (end of month)
12:05:35 <rust_collector> so, I assume you are thinking about a wire machine?
12:05:58 <arch> i'm getting this, which is all-in-one: https://www.harborfreight.com/welding/welders/multiprocess-welders/omnipro-220-industrial-multiprocess-welder-with-120240v-input-57812.html

12:07:58 <rust_collector> 1100...ok. remember it only does dc, but that is not a horrible choice, I think. spend a bit on a good face shield, or mask, or what you call them. if you can not see, it is hard to do a very good weld
12:11:17 <rust_collector> they do not have to be super expensive, but get a good one. it is very worth it, imo

15:12:00 <rust_collector> uhm, morning?
15:12:49 <Halcyon> It's a warm one today. 35 degrees where I am. 39 degrees in Western Sydney
15:12:58 <rust_collector> oof
15:13:21 <Halcyon> Thank fuck for air conditioning. I played tennis this morning at 1000. It was very moist.
15:13:33 <rust_collector> -0.5 here but at least it is 5 in the morning, lol
15:26:27 <Halcyon> Frosty
15:27:32 <rust_collector> it is that weird time, when it is too warm in the day, and frozen at night

21:00:45 <steve30> i tried to record onto a minidisc yesterday but it didn't record
21:00:53 <steve30> it plays fine but won't record
21:01:12 <steve30> I wonder if its too dirty, it looks like it has a lot of dust in it
21:15:21 <Halcyon> Record head/laser might be filthy ?
22:40:45 <DHess_US> Yesterday all of the skiers from Massachusetts drove through. Our police were out in force issuing speeding tickets.
22:52:03 <DHess_US> Perfect skiing weather for the next week, and plenty of snow on the ground.
22:59:56 <electrohead> You can keep the snow :P
23:39:41 * steve30 has stir fry
23:56:13 <DHess_US> Hasn't snowed since last week, but the weather since then has been overcast. Skiing weather started yesterday because the sky has been clear and sunny.
23:57:18 <Ampera> DHess_US, that's not very live free or die of you.
23:57:30 <DHess_US> Huh? How is it not?
23:57:44 <DHess_US> Oh, giving Massachusetts drivers speeding tickets?
23:57:46 <Ampera> lol
23:57:58 <DHess_US> Massachusetts does the same to us.
23:58:04 <Ampera> yeah but they're massholes
23:58:16 <DHess_US> haha, that is exactly what someone here said.
23:58:41 <DHess_US> They drive up here to shop because of no sales tax.
23:58:43 <Ampera> it's almost like my people come from new england
23:59:13 <DHess_US> So lots of stores are lined up at the border with Massachusetts just for Massachusetts shoppers.
23:59:16 <Ampera> though I haven't been to half of NE
23:59:26 <Ampera> Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and Maine are still on the bucket list
