52:20 <MrMobodies> My dad was looking at these electric cars, called "SUVS"
52:28 <MrMobodies> and that they're big etc/
53:04 <rust_collector> well, they are not really big, they just waste a lot of space
53:12 <MrMobodies> many of them being reivewed on Youtube were not big
53:22 <MrMobodies> they're just tall but short in lenth
53:47 <MrMobodies> and "back seats is squishy" I hear in many of them
54:13 <MrMobodies> Why do they call them suvs when they are no way as near as long
54:39 Quit: Agripa3 ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 121 seconds
55:03 <rust_collector> sport utility vehicle. it does not say anything about being long
55:32 <MrMobodies> I mean the "electric" ones he was looking at
55:39 <MrMobodies> they seem very short
55:46 <MrMobodies> in length
56:04 <MrMobodies> where the backseats don't have much leg room
56:16 <rust_collector> well, you asked why they were called suv, even if they are short. but length does not have anything to do with being a suv
57:04 <MrMobodies> maybe it is the recommendations from Youtube
57:13 <MrMobodies> the cars just seem short

57:25 <MrMobodies> I think that was one of them
57:31 <MrMobodies> squashed up back seat
58:24 <rust_collector> that is because the cars they looked at are short. but not many cars have good leg room in the back any more, imo.
58:27 <MrMobodies> but I notice some regular sized ones like double in price
06:36 <MrMobodies> Cooking down now, it was 27c an hour ago when I got back
07:10 <MrMobodies> now 22x
07:29 <rust_collector> 27.... I would move south, if it was 27
09:27 <MrMobodies> For more heat or colder weather?
09:54 <MrMobodies> on Satutday it is going to be 33c
09:55 <MrMobodies> https://i.imgur.com/DILapy9.png
11:14 <rust_collector> if you go far enough south, it is really nice and cold
11:54 <rust_collector> i do not like it when it is more than 25, and that is when I am not doing anything
15:02 <arch> lmao i was checking on reddit if wheel bearings off ebay can be trusted, and came across this golden comment thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/Justrolledintotheshop/comments/14o6865/comment/jqba7nx/

28:21 <EEVBot> [url] Barriers to green inhaler prescribing: ethical issues in environmentally sustainable clinical practice | Journal of Medical Ethics | jme.bmj.com
29:03 <MrMobodies> the way the language is used to blame the patient when it doesn't work or using it wrongly,
29:26 <MrMobodies> and slipping the word "environmental" in the trust relationship
30:06 <MrMobodies> and if it don't work for the patient and the patient reverts, that patient is "harming" the environment, and the doctor then has a moral duty to override "patient choice" etc.
31:48 <MrMobodies> "I argue that while a patient is not morally justified in refusing a more environmentally sustainable"... patient it wrong and no reason to refuse...
33:03 <MrMobodies> I see "ethics" in there but where is the ethics if the patient can't breathe and in an emergency.

01:33 <MrMobodies> that's not nice
01:59 <MrMobodies> it works when I disable CSS and doesn't redirect
05:18 <MrMobodies> I see it is from India, making sense, it got hijacked, they used an intermediary to redirect and the URL got taken down
08:00 <MrMobodies> Ublock logger: /bm-country-blocker-ip-blocker-60 absolutely disgusting
20:39 <Ampera> time to contemplate what death-dapter I want to buy odd amazon for my travels to Germany.
21:18 <Ampera> They make German Schuko to NEMA 5-15 adapters, but they're dangerous since 5-15 is inherently polarized and Schuko isn't.
21:46 <Ampera> I don't think any of my devices are going to need a ground pin, so I might simply get ungrounded unpolarized europlug adapters, even if they're cheaper and smaller
21:54 <Ampera> I mostly just need it for USB-C chargers since all of my stuff is USB based
23:40 <Kuschelpony> Ampera, you might also consider to just buy an safe USB power supply locally here
24:09 <Ampera> Kuschelpony, the problem then is that I will only ever be able to use it in Europe. Those power supplies are expensive, and ideally I'd be able to use multiple.
24:24 <Kuschelpony> but to my knowedge all of them are safety classII which means full isolation and they have no "L"&"N" but can be plugged in arbitrarily
24:31 <Kuschelpony> understood
25:58 <Ampera> Pretty much all of my chargers are unpolarized NEMA 1-15 and won't draw more than 60-90W
26:04 <Ampera> so a cheap europlug adapter is proooobably fine
26:59 <Ampera> It also means if I visit somewhere that does not use the German style Schuko, like France or Switzerland, I can still use my chargers
30:11 <Kuschelpony> if your adapter has an europlug, it will naturally fit in France and Switzerland and several other countries
30:52 <Kuschelpony> also we dont use the Schuko anymore, its been replaced since decades with the CEE7/7 that fits Schuko and France sockets
33:30 <Ampera> Kuschelpony, I thought Schuko was just the common name for the German style of CEE plug/outlet
34:38 <Kuschelpony> its a bit blurry
34:56 <Kuschelpony> "Schuko" is originally 100something years ago the brand name for the german system
35:35 <Kuschelpony> later the french came with their own system of "Schutzkontakt"="Protective earth"
36:18 <Kuschelpony> both were united as the CEE7/7 which has both, the hole for the french pin as well as the side surfaces for the german plug
37:41 <Kuschelpony> and then there was the idea of a small lightweight 2,5A plug for double-isolated appliances that fits in amost every european socket, german; french; italian; swiss and many more (if you do hacky things then you can also ram it into british sockets)

55:52 <Ampera> Kuschelpony, ahh, I see. In a sense it'd be like calling our NEMA plugs "Hubbel" plugs

15:50 <K> Ampera, you could buy one in Europe and add the US converter and use it as such
16:02 <K> not super practical, but an option
17:02 <Ampera> K, yeah but that's basically the same problem but in reverse, and worse if I end up staying in the US
17:25 <Ampera> I also have a ton of USB-C chargers already, so it makes no sense to get more
17:49 <Ampera> One problem I will have is I have a hair iron that I used to style my hair, and naturally it only works on 120V US power
18:01 <Ampera> or at least it will get very hot exactly once on EU power
18:21 <Ampera> so I may have to order one just for use in Germany
19:17 <K> or you could just buy one there
19:31 <Ampera> well yes, that's what I'm saying
19:44 Quit: steve31 ([email protected]) Quit: <Ampera> steve30, if that quit message gets any older they're gonna put it in a museum :D
19:45 <Ampera> but I then am buying an appliance that I can only use for a month, lol
21:34 <K> you could take it back with you and use it to keep your tea warm
21:44 <K> or soup
22:01 <K> or porridge
22:18 <K> (shudders)
43:39 <arch> lol
44:13 <arch> or you could buy a 2:1 transformer
56:30 <Ampera> arch, yes because hauling a heavy transformer in my suitcase is an ideal use of luggage allowance :P
59:07 <Kuschelpony> Ampera, i would be glad to be your pack-horse to move it :)
03:36 <Ampera> lol
04:01 <Ampera> Kuschelpony, I will be in NRW and probably some nearby areas and cities and maybe countries for all of August
04:15 <Ampera> no sweat, but if you happen to be strolling by I wouldn't mind meeting for lunch or something and saying hallo
05:08 <Kuschelpony> hmmm NRW is diagonally opposite to where i live, but the date might to visit Schwelm as i want to get gear there
05:26 <Kuschelpony> might match
05:49 <Kuschelpony> from there i can invite you to visit Wuppertal and its monorail suspended train
08:50 <Ampera> Kuschelpony, I definitely want to see the Schwebebahn.
10:02 <Ampera> If my flights from PLAY airlines weren't all canceled, I'd have landed in Dusseldorf, and would've been able to take their H-Bahn at the airport.
