01:28:31 <EEVBot> [GitHub] atopile/atopile | 93.8% Python 5.5% ANTLR 0.6% Jinja | Last Push: 2024-02-06 - 01:43:23 EST | Stargazers: 389 | Watchers: 6 | Forks: 10 | Network: 10 | Open Issues: 9
01:32:13 <MrMobodies> Not pleased, I ordered some Alcotip alcohol wipes that I specifcally looked for
01:32:20 <MrMobodies> and the supplier did a switcheroo on me
01:32:23 <MrMobodies> oops window stucj
01:33:59 <MrMobodies> is that some kind of power supply monitor?
01:34:38 <Ysjoelfir> 📖 What Is atopile?
01:34:38 <Ysjoelfir> atopile is a tool to build electronic circuit boards with code.
01:37:09 <MrMobodies> that's nice
01:38:59 <Ysjoelfir> and its written literally 2cm under the bottom edge of your screen.
01:39:12 <Ysjoelfir> assuming a full hd setup
01:39:14 <MrMobodies> I got a bit confused and thought it had something to do with a board they were showing
01:39:22 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/G8wtBmu.png
01:39:36 <MrMobodies> with the connectors but I now see it was just an example
01:39:49 <MrMobodies> https://github.com/atopile/atopile/blob/main/docs/assets/images/code-layout-pcb.png
01:39:49 <EEVBot> [GitHub] [atopile/atopile] docs/assets/images/code-layout-pcb.png @ main
01:39:51 <MrMobodies> I get it
01:40:20 <MrMobodies> So I write in code what circuit I want and one is automatically created

01:40:21 <EEVBot> [url] Upload and share screenshots and images - print screen online | Snipboard.io | snipboard.io
01:40:23 <Ysjoelfir> that one?
01:42:17 <MrMobodies> not showing anything
01:42:24 <MrMobodies> JUst Snipboard.io
01:42:44 <MrMobodies> no image, I tried chrome, palemoon same thing
01:43:01 <Ysjoelfir> too bad, there must be something blocking all sort of stuff that makes the web useable
01:43:01 <MrMobodies> oooh oh "Loading..."
01:43:13 <MrMobodies> yes, that'd be adblock and ublck
01:43:28 Part: Ysjoelfir ([email protected]) from #eevblog (Closing Window)
01:43:37 <MrMobodies> oh no it wasn't they were switched off

01:43:38 Mode: (by ChanOP) +o Ysjoelfir
01:43:41 <MrMobodies> it was my host file
01:43:48 <MrMobodies> I cleared it temporarily and it worked
01:45:05 * electrohead hugs Ysjoelfir
01:45:12 * Ysjoelfir rehugs electrohead
01:45:30 <electrohead> how goes, today?
01:46:02 <Ysjoelfir> going ok. a bit in circles, imho
01:46:12 <Ysjoelfir> going to replace the rear bumper on the misses' mazda later
01:47:22 <electrohead> ew, good look
01:47:28 <electrohead> err
01:47:32 <electrohead> good luck*
01:47:38 <MrMobodies> full of adverts though with download free pdf
01:47:38 <electrohead> helps to type properly :p
01:47:54 <Ysjoelfir> always does :P
01:48:07 <MrMobodies> and I think did block a few dodgy websites I suspected of hosting malware in the past
01:48:24 <MrMobodies> using the that host file in c:\windows\systm32\drivers\etc\hosts
01:48:38 <Ysjoelfir> I didnt expect that hosts editing is still a thing nowadays...
01:49:03 <electrohead> same here, to be honest. I edit my hosts file just for my local machhine, that's it
01:49:48 <Ysjoelfir> heck, I don't even have an antivirus or firewall on my pc.
01:49:54 <Ysjoelfir> I prefer to use brain.exe instead
01:50:04 <MrMobodies> this is what I use to get to it quick
01:50:15 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/Pd7JOOU.png
01:50:30 <electrohead> Ysjoelfir, lol
01:50:31 <MrMobodies> Edexter 1999 -2001
01:51:09 <electrohead> I have never heard of that, until now
01:51:15 <MrMobodies> apparently I read some years ago that Windows 10 bypasses it for the windows updates
01:56:06 <Ysjoelfir> what exactly is that supposed to be?
02:00:14 <MrMobodies> Edexter? just links to host file and displays a symbol for those blocked from the hosts file onto the page but that no longer works
02:00:15 <electrohead> I think this is the correct website for it? https://www.accs-net.com/hosts/eDexter.html
02:00:15 <EEVBot> [url] eDexter | www.accs-net.com
02:00:27 <MrMobodies> yes
02:00:39 <electrohead> I really hope you are not paying for that
02:00:44 <MrMobodies> nope
02:00:49 <MrMobodies> it was given to me in 2000
02:00:57 <electrohead> in 2000?
02:00:59 <electrohead> holy shit
02:01:00 <MrMobodies> I'd never pay for anything like that
02:01:03 <MrMobodies> yes
02:01:21 <MrMobodies> just quicker for me to write my entries in that host file
02:01:45 <MrMobodies> and get rid of duplicates too
02:02:33 <MrMobodies> I don't target things like doubleclick anymore
02:02:36 <MrMobodies> as long as they behave
02:02:37 <Ysjoelfir> so you prefer to use some random software written by some random dude somewhere in the 90s on winders 10 to edit one of the most critical files in your filesystem, while fearing stuff from the internetz that could potentially infect your PC while sitting behind a firewall and at least 2 adblockers? that sounds a bit strange to me if I'm honest
02:03:21 <MrMobodies> it was given to me at a school when I was working for the IT department
02:03:31 <MrMobodies> I was only 16 then
02:03:40 <electrohead> times change, though
02:03:47 <MrMobodies> but yes you are right, too late now but I should do some tests on it
02:03:54 <Ysjoelfir> I was 16 once as well
02:03:59 <MrMobodies> to see what risks I have put myself through
02:04:13 <Ysjoelfir> no, you should stop caring about things that aren't relevant nowadays
02:04:19 <MrMobodies> what I mean is see what connections it makes through the firewall
02:04:49 <MrMobodies> shame I let that slip for many many years
02:04:59 <Ysjoelfir> just use brave browser or any other browser and a good adblocker, and, most relevant of all, use brain.exe. or brain.py if you prefer to use the python version.
02:05:19 <MrMobodies> brain.exe?
02:05:51 <MrMobodies> where do I find it?
02:05:58 <electrohead> in your skull lol
02:06:05 <MrMobodies> oh sarcasm
02:06:14 <Ysjoelfir> no, not sarcasm
02:06:29 <Ysjoelfir> just use common sense. don't click on shit you are not supposed to click onto
02:06:50 <MrMobodies> on webpages I do that anyway
02:07:05 <MrMobodies> but I let the program slip me by
02:07:09 <MrMobodies> witout checking
02:07:13 <MrMobodies> at the start
02:07:41 <MrMobodies> I was paranoid about the connections Windows 10 was making when I made my alterations back in 2020
02:07:45 <MrMobodies> yet I let that one sip
02:07:49 <MrMobodies> *slip
02:08:05 <electrohead> Paranoid about what, exactly?
02:08:14 <Ysjoelfir> if aunty helen sends you a mail and asks for you to click on that link that leads to www.bank-of-england.fuckmeimnotareallink.com/awdha76wd0y0dawy70ywdihaw/loginfake.html you maybe should consider to not do that. otherwise I assume you should be perfectly safe behind any routers internal firewall, and, if you feel so inclined, with the original winders antivirus and firewall
02:08:29 <MrMobodies> nonononoo I won't fall for that
02:08:58 <MrMobodies> the tool was given to me at a school, they used it, not downloaded from a website
02:09:04 <MrMobodies> over 20 years ago,
02:09:16 <MrMobodies> I don't fall for things like url's
02:09:41 <MrMobodies> but yes the Edexter I should have run tests on it to make sure it was safe at some point a long time ago
02:10:00 <MrMobodies> and maybe make shortcuts to the hosts file isntead of continuing to use it
02:10:30 <MrMobodies> I get lots of those sort of those emails and I report them too
02:10:39 <MrMobodies> without clicking the url's
02:11:06 <MrMobodies> I remember the last one I reported was covid where they impersonated a government portal, tested on a seperate browser profike
02:11:36 <MrMobodies> I have different browser profiles launched by shortcuts and by different copies too
02:11:49 <MrMobodies> to stop things likes ad targetting and session hijacking
02:12:07 <MrMobodies> one browser for amazon, and ebay, get to keep all the bookmarks seperated
02:13:40 <Ysjoelfir> I just use one for everything and don't give a fuck about ads, as I don't see most of them anyways
02:14:30 * Ampera hugs Ysjoelfir
02:14:31 <Ampera> hey Ysjoelfriend!
02:14:42 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/hYQniFB.png
02:15:11 <MrMobodies> so when I open the Amazon one all bookmarks all there in one place and the homepage is set according and next tab
02:15:32 <Ysjoelfir> mornings Ampera
02:15:36 * Ysjoelfir rehugs Ampera
02:15:45 <Ampera> how are you doing Ysjoelfir?
02:15:46 <MrMobodies> C:\Vivaldi\Application\vivaldi.exe --user-data-dir="C:\Vivaldi\Youtube"
02:15:53 <MrMobodies> Vivaldi built on Chrome
02:16:14 <MrMobodies> just to make it nice and easy for me
02:16:14 <Ysjoelfir> pretty ok, u?
02:16:34 <Ampera> I'm doing alright, about half way through the workday.
02:16:40 <Ysjoelfir> nice
02:16:42 <Ysjoelfir> mien is almost over
02:17:33 <Ampera> am going to the buffet later, so I am looking forward to that
02:17:42 <Ysjoelfir> uuuh, that sounds delightful
02:17:54 <Ampera> beef stroganov is on the ticket for tomorrow
02:18:11 <Ampera> I might make burgers within the week, too
02:21:23 * electrohead pokes the Ampera
02:21:30 <Ysjoelfir> ooooh nice! I'm slightly jealous
02:21:32 * Ampera moans
02:27:23 <electrohead> Ysjoelfir: stop over, I have plenty of food over here
02:27:45 <Ysjoelfir> food is always great!
02:28:02 <MrMobodies> food is all I look forward too in the times of boredom
02:28:10 <MrMobodies> like right now
02:30:12 <MrMobodies> I'd like to cut the grass or cut some wood but it is raining out there
02:30:59 <Ysjoelfir> than take some grass or wood inside and cut it there?
02:31:10 <MrMobodies> now I like that sarcasm
02:31:28 <Ysjoelfir> yes, that was indeed sarcasm this time :D
02:31:32 <MrMobodies> if only I had a woodburner/fire
02:32:01 <MrMobodies> we use to but there things wrong with the flue when we moved here and it had to replaced with a as ire
02:32:04 <MrMobodies> *fire
02:32:57 <MrMobodies> brain.exe, use my brain?
02:33:12 <MrMobodies> I take it you mean that
02:33:33 <arch> how do you do, fellow creeps?
02:33:38 <MrMobodies> and get to my senses a bit better about things that may slip me by
02:33:49 <electrohead> !beer arch
02:33:49 * EEVBot gets arch annihilated
02:34:02 <arch> \o/
02:34:02 <MrMobodies> I do like horror films especially creepshow ones
02:34:02 <EEVBot> |
02:34:03 <EEVBot> [ }
02:34:36 <MrMobodies> or ones with deranged people in some unknown part of a country who feeds on others going into it
02:53:03 <Ysjoelfir> the later part literally reminds me of human centipede
03:30:33 <rust_collector> moins
03:30:41 <Ampera> hey rust_collector how are you doing?
03:32:55 <rust_collector> well, I goed home, so that is a good step, lol. we have a tiny tiny bit of snow today, and things are like eel in snot
04:03:48 Join: kbs ([email protected]) to #eevblog
04:04:18 <kbs> Just a question out of curiosity. According to https://vlsiverify.com/verilog/switch-level-modeling/ - the output for an nmos transistor with both gate and source set to "1" is also "1". But that doesn't seem to match my understanding of how nmos transistors work (e.g. wouldn't it directly behave as a transmission gate?)

06:24:01 <MrMobodies> Helo
06:24:07 <MrMobodies> a bit concerned
06:24:09 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/1QaIhUJ.png
06:24:33 <MrMobodies> are these accepted temperatures from what I believe to see a power delivery controller or some sort?
06:24:40 <MrMobodies> that is when it is under full load
06:25:05 <MrMobodies> now it has gone down to 45c
06:25:07 <rust_collector> looks pretty normal, I think,
06:25:17 <rust_collector> has it been on a long time?
06:25:30 <MrMobodies> that happened during a Youtube 8K video playback with all the cores maxed out
06:25:51 <MrMobodies> yes I had it about ten minutes doing that
06:26:02 <MrMobodies> and many times before I noticed it getting hot
06:27:03 <MrMobodies> I put the old fan on which worked (due to the right connector and pinout) but it kept on spinning up an down too often. Old fan (12v 0.70a) the one designed for this board (12v 0.50a)
06:27:15 <rust_collector> I do not think that is a problem. not that I know what exactly that thing is
06:27:39 <MrMobodies> so I cut off the connector off one of my old fans and bodged it in and that solved the problem with the fan going up and down too often
06:27:52 <MrMobodies> you can see the wago strips cabled tied down
06:28:20 <MrMobodies> maybe I could try to bodge a small fan in there directed at those controller
06:28:33 <MrMobodies> I could see that burning out by the summer
06:29:49 <rust_collector> cooling is probably not a bad idea, but... I also do not think it is a real issue
06:33:00 <MrMobodies> maybe it is me being paranoid again
06:33:49 <rust_collector> nah, they really are out to get you
06:34:33 <MrMobodies> sarcasm?
06:34:37 <MrMobodies> but yes that was mistake buying that board as an small upgrade for someone where it is turning out to be more trouble than what it's worth
06:34:51 <rust_collector> not sarcasm, just a crappy joke
06:34:54 <MrMobodies> oh
06:35:20 <MrMobodies> I am sure that could be one of their methods of product obscelence
06:35:39 <rust_collector> it could. it also could be a non-issue
06:35:47 <MrMobodies> oops obsolescence
06:35:53 <rust_collector> look up what that thing is, and go from there
06:36:00 <MrMobodies> it does make some noise though coil
06:36:17 <MrMobodies> my phone don't go far and my camera battery is flat which was a 10x zoom
06:36:20 <MrMobodies> so I'd find out soon
06:36:35 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/7Gqdd1e.png
06:36:53 <rust_collector> it probably is a coil, for a power supply. and that will get hot, but I think a coil does not mind running a bit warm
06:36:55 <MrMobodies> I'll get a better photo later with my camera
06:37:06 <rust_collector> yeah, do that
06:37:13 <MrMobodies> aaah so it is possible warming up the tracers
06:37:22 <MrMobodies> and the heat is dissipating from it
06:38:21 <MrMobodies> it is working really well though
06:38:45 <MrMobodies> 4k video playback on Youtube and goes in fullscreen and exits instantly
06:38:51 <MrMobodies> without dropping frames
06:39:12 <MrMobodies> 4 seconds to load Windows 10 ltsc
06:39:56 <MrMobodies> all cores read 35c but under Dell Fintek sensr CPU: 65C
06:40:19 <MrMobodies> which is why I got the temperature gun out but can't see anything that hot
06:41:23 <rust_collector> I think those are ok up to 80 or something around there?
07:01:56 Join: kbs ([email protected]) to #eevblog
07:13:53 <MrMobodies> okay
07:13:57 <MrMobodies> I think I have foud
07:14:16 <MrMobodies> two redundant cdrom slots
07:14:30 <MrMobodies> and two holes line up perfectly for a fan
07:14:41 <MrMobodies> all I need to do is find some standoffs
07:15:02 <MrMobodies> and maybe try and bend a little towards that area past the memory
07:17:22 <MrMobodies> ooops old hard disk goes in there
07:19:45 <MrMobodies> maybe I could move the hard disk to the lower slot and find somewhere else for the ssd
07:20:45 <MrMobodies> if I can keep those below 50c at high loads then I'd be happier
07:20:59 <MrMobodies> especially when Summer temperatures hit
07:21:39 <MrMobodies> when something goes out to somebody I want it last forever if it can
07:22:14 <MrMobodies> an when it outlives their expectations years down the line they'd have genuine confidence on me
07:22:55 <rust_collector> but, you talk about summer temps... you do remember you live in england-land, right?
07:23:53 <MrMobodies> yes it can get to near 40c like last year
07:24:36 <MrMobodies> sometimes it is mild but I want to the reduce wear and tear of heat if I can
07:24:45 <rust_collector> sure
07:25:21 <MrMobodies> If I had my way, I'd fit a whole load of thermaltake fans in there but they'd complain the noise.
07:25:41 <MrMobodies> I am talking about the 0.50a 6000rpm ones
07:26:02 <MrMobodies> the ones I use to use in my old house to down out the noise of the yobs swearing at the church down the road
07:26:45 <rust_collector> dont make it draw so much power, that the power supply overheats
07:27:15 <MrMobodies> oh yes, that's why I chose a lower spec graphics card
07:27:30 <MrMobodies> I think that one draws 14w lets see
07:27:55 <rust_collector> yes, but I mean, if you fill the thing with fans. there has to be some point, where...there is no point
07:27:55 <MrMobodies> ooops no.... Max Power Consumption 41 W
07:28:39 <MrMobodies> well I was thinking of three fans but then you're rigjt I'd have to think about finding a larger power supply in my collection
07:28:47 <MrMobodies> and I know this one works perfectly fine
07:29:12 <MrMobodies> so I have a 0.30 12v fan that fits in the holes on the frame at the top
07:29:28 <MrMobodies> oops a Gelid 0.22a
07:29:39 <MrMobodies> 3200rpm I think that'd do it
07:31:05 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/5YpK8iL.png
07:31:41 <MrMobodies> so with a few standoffs to make it lower I think that might help cool those components a little
07:31:47 <rust_collector> I wonder, if you take the side cover off, and put one of those fans you use in summer, and tape that in place...
07:34:05 <MrMobodies> I don't think the customer would be happy about that
07:34:25 <MrMobodies> it does have holes on the door but above the pci slot
07:34:54 <MrMobodies> on the front the cdrom bay doors have covers that flap so can't fit a cooler in there, I do have some though
07:35:17 <MrMobodies> I could remove the door but then it's look ugly
07:35:37 <rust_collector> I am not thinking about on that exact machine, but... would it work?
07:35:38 <MrMobodies> removing the front cover and there are wholes are the bottom leaving me that only option
07:35:48 <MrMobodies> sure,
07:35:50 Join: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) to #eevblog
07:35:56 <MrMobodies> I'd do that for my own stuff
07:36:10 <MrMobodies> but if anything goes wrong for the customer, they get someone else in and see it
07:36:14 <MrMobodies> i'd look like a fool
07:36:25 <MrMobodies> so I always want to make sure things are extra rigid for them
07:36:34 <MrMobodies> so they can't come loose and that
07:37:26 <MrMobodies> found one
07:37:31 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/OHuMeaU.png
07:38:36 <MrMobodies> actually they might be a second option
07:38:52 <MrMobodies> as the front cover has a long depth
07:38:59 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/lnQBuGf.png
07:39:10 <MrMobodies> might be able to bodge some in that bay
07:39:27 <MrMobodies> if I can find a way of screwing them in
07:39:51 <MrMobodies> or locking them in place which should direct some more airflow in that area
07:41:40 <arch> waiting for my shock absorber springs to come from japan...coming on Thursday https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/001/373/328/b16.jpg
07:42:01 <rust_collector> oh, we will see about that
07:42:04 <MrMobodies> yes there is room for airflow due to the gaps

08:20:48 <electrohead> wtf
08:27:17 <rust_collector> the joy of having a company paid hotel room
08:28:07 <MrMobodies> seems a lot better at full load
08:28:08 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/eHXhtmm.png
08:28:44 <MrMobodies> yep 53c maxed out struggling ti play 8k video
08:28:47 <rust_collector> what is it like, with the cover on?
08:28:56 <MrMobodies> instead of over 70c
08:29:03 <rust_collector> air flow can be funny some times
08:29:04 <MrMobodies> I don't know I'll find out soon
08:29:42 <MrMobodies> that's disappointing, whilst I solved that problem the regulators about 10cm away are getting near 60c
08:30:00 <MrMobodies> so yes the heat could be going through the tracers
08:30:16 <MrMobodies> oh 5cm sorry
08:31:08 <MrMobodies> on stopping video they quickly drops to 50c
08:33:56 <rust_collector> well, stop playing 8k video, is my suggestion. at least my eyes do not see 8k anyway
08:35:00 <rust_collector> what are the temps like, if you play 720, or something?
08:40:17 <MrMobodies> actually it is an improvement
08:40:23 <MrMobodies> 30 - 35c idle
08:40:29 <MrMobodies> instead of over 50c idle
08:40:38 <MrMobodies> and the regulators behind it
08:40:44 <MrMobodies> so that seems to be an improvement

09:08:52 <MrMobodies> yep
09:08:53 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/mfcYIF7.png
09:09:06 <MrMobodies> it seems to stick around 55c at full load
09:09:35 <MrMobodies> not it's about 40c on the regulators and 50c on the power delivery controller
09:09:41 <MrMobodies> signifcantly better
09:10:19 <MrMobodies> my concern was those regulators are near the capacitors so I think that' really help reduce the heat near them
09:10:30 <MrMobodies> thanks to the bracket in my collection

09:22:05 <MrMobodies> the video default
09:22:34 <MrMobodies> that should be enough and I imagine the monitor he is using with it is going to be less than the resolution of my HP LP2065
09:22:43 <rust_collector> does he have a BIG screen for that thing?
09:23:07 <MrMobodies> I am not sure but what I do know his other board just has a VGA port on it
09:23:32 <MrMobodies> if it is big I imagine the resolution isn't going to be great not for something from 2008
09:23:41 <MrMobodies> and + or - 5 years

09:29:39 <MrMobodies> I had to remove the fan a bit as the regulators further away were like 61c
09:29:44 <MrMobodies> instead of mid 50c
09:30:15 <MrMobodies> but after stopping playback they quickly went to down mid 30c whilst the pdc went to 40 to 50c
09:30:18 <MrMobodies> a lot better
09:30:37 <MrMobodies> that's with the on with the cpu maxed out on the 8k as a little stress test
09:32:13 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/lDfQfyZ.png
09:32:19 <MrMobodies> that's 4k no frames dropped
09:32:39 <MrMobodies> going for aout 3 minutes or so
09:34:47 <MrMobodies> with the fan moved, 50 - 54c on regulators
09:37:00 <MrMobodies> 57c on the power delivery controller, a bit high
09:37:18 <MrMobodies> with the lid on
09:38:26 <MrMobodies> I think that is it then.

12:20:00 <arch> Ampera, do you do your own brake jobs?
12:20:39 <arch> my truck brakes have been whining/squealing. might have to inspect that soon. just waiting for spring to come before i do any fun stuff :|
12:23:03 <Ampera> my car isn't old enough to need a brake job yet
12:23:09 <Ampera> I do however do blowjobs.
12:24:09 <arch> that's no fun
12:24:33 <MrMobodies> the brakes on my audi are a little rusty according to the MOT but that was because it was sittin there for 4 years when we moved and the lockdown started
12:24:52 <MrMobodies> the alternator belt snapped so it went in for an MOT costing £516
12:25:20 <MrMobodies> I think it would have been cheaper if the parts got replaced over the years spread out
12:25:26 <MrMobodies> if it had been used
12:26:07 <MrMobodies> needed new air and oil filter, alternator belt a tensioner, oil change fluid change and all sorts
12:26:45 <MrMobodies> but very hard to steer it with no power steering which was controlled by the alternator before the belt snapped
12:27:12 <MrMobodies> I just love it when it goes up hills without any struggle
12:27:26 <MrMobodies> no gear change it just pulls up the hill
12:27:58 <MrMobodies> and the pulling (pedal on gas) gives me this lovely feeling
12:28:21 <MrMobodies> without all the noise and mods that the boy racers make

13:34:39 <electrohead> arch: brake bad replacement is simple; hardest part is really just clamping your calipers, so you can get them back on. don't forget to open your brake fluid resorvior, while doing so :p

14:18:51 <electrohead> When I was at the store earlier this morning, some chick walked in, and said "nice car" to me; I noticed her car lacked a front bumper and just .. looked like shit in general, so I sat in my car on my phone, until she left the store, then put my window down, and said "I like your bumper"
14:18:57 <electrohead> the confusion on her face, lol
14:21:21 <MrMobodies> the lady had a bumper
14:21:23 <MrMobodies> oh
14:21:47 <MrMobodies> just fitted another one of those fans with a bir more bodging in the place I want

14:24:27 <MrMobodies> all about 55c or so much better
14:25:09 <Halcyon> Did she say it to be sarcastic or did she genuinely like WRXs ?
14:25:23 <electrohead> oh she genuinely liked my car
14:25:42 <electrohead> I couldn't find anything nice to say about her car, so .. reverse mind fuck? lol
14:28:02 <Halcyon> You could have said "Thanks, want a drink?"
14:28:10 <Halcyon> Now she thinks you're weird :P
14:28:21 <MrMobodies> so she had an extra big bumper on her car?
14:28:29 <electrohead> Good. She's a heavy drug user, I saw it in her face
14:28:47 <electrohead> MrMobodies: my man, lol .. "I noticed her car lacked a front bumper"
14:28:49 <electrohead> sarcasm
14:28:53 <Halcyon> Ahhh. Yeah, give that a miss then
14:30:19 <MrMobodies> I think I get it
14:30:46 <MrMobodies> you mean either she is pregnant, if not the size of her tits must be large?
14:31:08 <MrMobodies> I know this as this is the sort of talk they'd do at the local village pub
14:31:20 <MrMobodies> well I hope I am right this time
14:31:38 <MrMobodies> it's not often I am right about jokes and sarcasm
14:31:41 <electrohead> there was nothing sexual about it, MrMobodies. her car didn't have a front bumper, so the joke was saying "I like your bumper"
14:31:55 <MrMobodies> aah I see
14:32:08 <MrMobodies> any bump on her body?
14:32:39 <MrMobodies> joke: would you like a big fat man for his bumps too?

17:50:36 <K> spinning on the inside
17:50:51 <Ysjoelfir> you could call that a rapid bowel movement?
17:50:55 <rust_collector> mentally spinning
17:51:34 <MrMobodies> I put in an SSD but thought he could do with his existing 1tb drive as extra storage when he told me to clear it.
17:51:40 <rust_collector> what is the speed difference between spinning and just rotating? or is there some other difference
17:51:53 <MrMobodies> but it doesn't look good

17:54:08 <Ysjoelfir> I thought that was a raccoon
17:54:29 <MrMobodies> Rust, do ou mean the hard disk tool? Rotating or spinning. It is a 7200rpm drive.
17:54:53 <rust_collector> no, I mean in general, what is the difference between rotating, and spinning
17:55:05 <rust_collector> spinning sounds faster
17:55:49 <MrMobodies> Rotating is when the washing machine is at the end of the cycle where the water has been spun out and slowly turning the drum
17:57:23 <MrMobodies> There was this plumber I knew, grey thin hair, skinny but absolutely miserable and sarcastic... he looked like a grey cat too, a miserable one when he comes pushing through the door.
17:57:55 <MrMobodies> he was nearing his elderly years
17:58:28 <MrMobodies> he was teaching as this college and told a class once, that if they wern't careful they'd be going back to jail
17:59:10 <MrMobodies> one day he offered me a lift home, which was kind, then accused me of taking the kitchen sink
17:59:38 <MrMobodies> but it was only 2 bags and a toolkit.

20:08:51 <steve30> no, it found it itself

21:59:27 <Ampera> Our Own Devices is such a great channel
21:59:35 <Ampera> he seems to be getting a wave of popularity lately and I love to see it
21:59:49 <Ampera> he has curiosities seldom seen elsewhere
21:59:58 <Halcyon> Really well produced videos
22:00:25 <steve30> mmm, copies... i'll have to watch that later
22:00:36 <steve30> but I have climate change to deal with at 1p,
22:00:39 <steve30> 1pm
22:00:58 <Halcyon> Don't worry about that Steve
22:10:39 <K> Our Own Devices is very nice, yes
22:20:34 * steve30 afk: fixing the climate crisis

23:16:16 <electrohead> why would you kill me?
23:16:30 <electrohead> or, do I become an exception, somehow? (lol)
23:17:44 <Ysjoelfir> nah. sorry, steve is already on his way
23:22:58 * electrohead finds greta
23:23:30 <Ampera> Killing americans to solve climate change seems inefficient, but when you realize that we're about 1:3 with the Chinese, our genocide makes more economic sense.
23:25:36 <Ysjoelfir> see?
23:25:39 <Ysjoelfir> :-P
23:25:42 * Ampera hugs Ysjoelfir
23:25:49 <Ampera> how is my friend doing?
23:26:21 * Ysjoelfir rehugs Ampera and is doing quite ok today, after shaving this morning and not feeling like a yeti anymore
23:26:57 <Ampera> loll
23:56:02 <MrMobodies> Joke: Electrohead, do you have electrodes for hair?
23:56:38 <Ysjoelfir> No, he only has a carbon brush under his nose to dissipate the negative ions
23:58:52 <electrohead> lmao
23:59:49 <MrMobodies> So positivity goes in, and negative comes out.
