10:21:19 <steve30> I'm back from Manchester.
10:21:31 <rust_collector> WOOHOO!
10:21:50 <steve30> I found it amusing how Tony (a photographer) was smoking weed in the vicinity of about 50 police constables
10:25:10 <steve30> anyway, I've got some nice footage of police and antifa activists pushing each other around :)
10:32:21 <rust_collector> seems like a great place to gas everyone
10:38:38 <Ysjoelfir> steve, you need to share these pics tomorrow :D right now is bed time though
10:42:49 <steve30> i found their chants amusing
10:43:12 <steve30> "THERE ARE MANY MANY MORE OF US THAN YOU... AND WE'RE GAY"
10:49:17 <steve30> i do wonder if it is possible to be an antifa activist without being an LGBTQ+
10:50:37 <rust_collector> then you are antifag, I guess

11:37:42 <steve30> hi Halcyon
11:38:21 <steve30> I saw a load of policemen walk out of Greggs this morning. I wondered if they managed to escape being made into sausage rolls

11:54:57 <steve30> I'm just rendering a video of the police fighting an antifa mob :)
11:55:29 <steve30> I wonder if I should send a freedom of information request in to ask how much it cost the tax payer to police today's demonstration
11:57:58 <electrohead> !caffeine Halcyon

13:58:44 <Halcyon> Hey guys, what kind of fault would cause one of those plug-in/inline powercords with a built-in RCD to trip, even when there is nothing connected to it?
14:00:16 <Halcyon> Do they just one day decide to die and no longer work?

14:05:22 <Ampera> hi
14:05:58 <Ampera> how are you doing
14:06:15 <Halcyon> Not too bad, been building shelves and re-organising things, throwing out crap.
14:06:16 <Halcyon> You?
14:07:21 <Ampera> just laying on a couch, waiting until I feel like sleeping
14:07:31 <Ampera> I have a date tomorrow
14:07:36 <Ampera> with a guy >:D
14:07:42 <Halcyon> Woooo
14:09:51 <Ampera> It's a 2 hr drive to him from here
14:10:06 <Halcyon> Yeah you were saying
14:10:20 <Ampera> well I mean here in CT
14:18:12 <steve30> enjoy
14:18:35 * Ampera pets steve30
14:18:38 <Ampera> I will
14:18:54 <Ampera> we seem to like each other, we've been chatting for a couple weeks
14:31:58 * steve30 curls up on Ampera's lap
14:32:45 <steve30> I can't sleep atm, although I'm tired from being on busy trains, wandering around with a camcorder, and my new bike having a puncture
14:33:20 <Ampera> yeah I'm less than able to sleep
14:34:24 <steve30> youtube is recommending me a lot of transgender videos today
14:35:00 <Ampera> are they any good?
14:35:22 <steve30> no idea, i'm not that interested in trans blogs
14:36:10 <Ampera> the bits and pieces of trans youtube I've seen is definitely, uh
14:36:16 <Ampera> a thing...
14:37:04 <steve30> Most of the trans stuff I've seen on youtube is tech enthusiasts who realised they were trans

15:41:13 <arch> ehh, ok. ive been cleaning out my garage
15:41:23 <Ampera> cool
15:41:35 <arch> there's a bunch of scrap metals and shit im gonna haul to the scrapyard and sell em off for a few coins
15:41:47 <Ampera> cooooool
15:42:00 <arch> better than taking to the dump. at least i can make enough money for that gas guzzler of a truck
15:42:15 <Ampera> c o o o o o o o o l
15:43:24 <arch> there's a 1940s refrigerator. it's got 40 pounds of sulfur dioxide refrigerant in it \o/
15:43:34 <arch> woohoo toxic gases!
15:43:38 <Halcyon> Yummy

15:44:22 <Ampera> gay
15:44:26 <arch> no u
15:44:29 <Halcyon> How are you supposed to get rid of it
15:44:46 <Ampera> nah I like men, am perfectly straight
15:44:55 <Halcyon> (The SO2, not the gay part)
15:45:23 <Ampera> Halcyon, I didn't know you wanted to get rid of your gayness
15:45:34 <Halcyon> I don't. It's awesome.
15:45:36 <Ampera> I just want you to know, it's ok to be gay <3
15:45:44 <Ampera> what's so awesome about it
15:46:05 <Halcyon> *shrug* I've had a pretty easy life comparatively.
15:46:13 <Halcyon> And it's fun
15:46:16 * Halcyon wiggles it
15:46:16 <Ampera> I haven't
15:46:23 <Halcyon> Yeah but you're a straighty ;P
15:46:23 <Ampera> >:D
15:46:34 <Ampera> I'm a byke
15:47:12 <Halcyon> I probably should get back to organising, I promised myself I'd get it done this weekend, also it's bin night, so I need to put all the crap I'm throwing out in the bin
15:47:30 <Ampera> like me?
15:48:45 <Halcyon> Bin's almost full. You'll just have to sit beside it until the morning
15:50:24 <arch> Halcyon, that's a good question. assuming i can get that fridge working, which im about 90% sure i can, it doesnt have to go in the landfill
15:50:45 <Halcyon> Woo
15:50:45 <arch> those so2 refrigerators are quite tanky
15:51:10 <arch> i have this gizmo, one second, ill find it off amazon
15:52:16 <arch> https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008YDSH6E
15:52:16 <EEVBot> [url] Amazon.com | www.amazon.com
15:53:01 <arch> usually on old refrigerators, the compressor's capacitor leaks and/or the overload fuse burns out
15:53:35 <arch> you simply bypass the onboard ones by using one of those start kits
15:54:05 <arch> oh and dont forget to series pass the thermostat, or your compressor will run continiously and freeze up the line
18:14:11 <MrMobodies> Very disappointed to find on this particular motherboard/firmware than any change of drive even if they are exactly the same will trigger the Windows activation
18:15:14 <MrMobodies> so if the SSD fails have to buy another key
18:17:25 <MrMobodies> obviously is is exposing information about the drive to influence it were I don't have the problem with my other stuff with the same copy
18:18:06 <MrMobodies> when I installed the chipset driver it triggered the activation too.
18:18:43 <MrMobodies> I am going to try something, might not work, if I change the mode from AHCI to RAID will that expose less information about the drives to trigger it.
18:24:40 <MrMobodies> the only thing different about them
18:24:42 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/ZGDMmOl.png
18:25:03 <MrMobodies> is serial number and world wide name
19:01:04 <MrMobodies> Another disaster, I noticed earlier
19:01:44 <MrMobodies> on shutting down about 4 seconds later, power on full fan/no power light until hitting power button then fans go low and posts fine
19:35:03 <Halcyon> You shouldn't have to buy another key MrMobodies, it's just a matter of re-activating it again
19:35:11 <Halcyon> You're entitled to change your hardware
21:18:39 <MrMobodies> I will ask them later if I can transfer it, they are volume licensing keys, cheap to buy
21:19:08 <MrMobodies> I a going to have to send the board back it was doing this before but not always
21:19:29 <MrMobodies> I shut it down, it'd stay off, I'd go out and find it turned back on on it's own
21:19:42 <MrMobodies> this was when I first got it
21:20:34 <MrMobodies> I believe two things, capacitor issue or the packaging, where it was packaged in bubble wrap without any anti static bag.
21:21:28 <MrMobodies> I should have sent it back. My fault I should be inistent on these things by principle. Not properly packaged = dead on arrival. I consider this a lesson from the amount of time and spent on it.
21:21:49 <MrMobodies> and money.

23:43:02 <Halcyon> Come back to me in 10 years, then claim I'm old.
23:43:19 <Ampera> well then I'd be old too
23:43:46 <Ampera> and hopefully having had a long and happy relationship with someone :>
