05:03:48 <arch> !fart
05:05:57 * EEVBot stopped trusting a fart, and messed all over arch
06:12:10 <rust_collector> mmmm, fucking pidgeon. that is kinky
06:13:33 <arch> https://elektrotanya.com/micronta_radio_shack_22-124_12v_2.5_a_regulated_power_supply_sch.pdf/download.html this C3 capacitor shorted out. who the fuck even expects a cap to short out?
06:13:34 <EEVBot> [url] 403 Forbidden | elektrotanya.com
06:16:06 * rust_collector thinks arch is too new
07:30:49 <arch> Ampera, https://www.reddit.com/r/oddlyterrifying/comments/yhg7en/this_little_kid_excited_about_getting_a_pocket/
07:31:01 <arch> that's you when you were like 5
07:31:50 <Ampera> :/
07:40:13 <arch> seen any interesting anime this season Ampera?
07:40:41 <Ampera> arch, I don't watch seasonal anime
07:40:50 <Ampera> last anime i was watching was Otokojuku
07:41:15 <Ampera> This monster wants to eat me looks good, but haven't gotten around to watching it yet
07:41:45 <arch> so you only watch ongoing anime rather than standalone?
07:41:58 <arch> i watched like 10 episodes of Monster. it was too slow for me
07:41:59 <Ampera> I watch whatever anime I feel like watching
07:42:03 <Ampera> which is rarely anime that isn't out already
07:42:46 <arch> derp, i misread. i thought you said "Monster", not the longass anime lol. i didnt see the monster-long-ass-anime-name anime
07:43:06 <Ampera> afaik it's basically yuri vore
07:43:08 <Ampera> with yokai
07:43:12 <arch> \o/
07:43:12 <EEVBot> I
07:43:12 <EEVBot> [ \
07:43:13 <Ampera> which is like, up my alley
07:43:19 <Ampera> I did read Vampeerz, which is a manga
07:43:21 <Ampera> and it's uh
07:43:28 <Ampera> it was ok and a bit too ecchi for my tastes
07:43:48 <Ampera> like, it's not too ecchi for me, I just don't understand why these fucking mangas and anime need to do this shit with 14 year olds
07:44:19 <K> coz it sells
07:44:34 <Ampera> that's the disturbing part
07:44:44 <Ampera> I found the manga in a local major book store
07:46:58 <arch> lots of pandering to pedos

08:36:35 <steve30> I think this is the point at which I need to turn the internet off for the day.

10:42:13 <Halcyon> Hey Ampera
10:42:15 <Halcyon> How you doing?

10:43:48 <Ampera> hbu Halcyon
10:44:07 <Halcyon> Just working, kind of.
10:44:18 <Ampera> better than being broken
10:44:25 <Halcyon> Kind of just waiting for people to get back to me on things, so taking it easy today.
10:44:30 <Halcyon> Heh indeed
10:44:51 <Ampera> I have been playing with OpenCV at work lately
10:44:52 <Ampera> which is fun
10:44:59 <Halcyon> What does that do?
10:45:04 <Ampera> Computer Vision
10:45:22 <Ampera> An image library with a lot of functions for analyzing images
10:45:29 <Halcyon> Ah right

11:16:40 <arch> T3sl4, Ampera, electrohead, i just fixed a cb radio that must have been connected in reverse. burned out a wire trace and also destroyed the power-on switch on the combo potentiometer. https://imgur.com/a/XWqPi8Q
11:16:53 <Halcyon> Gees, my printer pulls about 1 kW when printing
11:17:26 <Halcyon> Nice arch
11:17:27 <arch> that's expected if it's a laser printer. needs to heat the drum fast
11:17:47 <Halcyon> I should get back into CB again, it's been so many years. Used to have a radio in one of my old cars
11:17:56 Join: pa1983 ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
11:18:05 <arch> i am just learning about them now lol. im way late
11:18:10 <Halcyon> Pretty sure I still have the radio actually
11:18:28 <Halcyon> I've never repaired one, so you're still ahead of me. I've just installed/used them
11:19:31 Join: Rhine_Labs_2 ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
11:20:41 <arch> well, im sure cbr must have been more lively back then compared to now
11:20:41 Quit: Rhine_Labs ([email protected]) Ping timeout: 2 minutes
11:21:00 <arch> now i hear crazies on channel 6 in the mornings, and sometimes truckers, and that's about it
11:21:52 <Halcyon> It was, but also frustratingly so. Because more people used it, there were a lot more morons on the air that just liked to cause trouble.
11:22:20 <Halcyon> Overpowering everyone else, with illegal TX levels, locking on repeaters for no reason, and just generally being cunts.
11:23:15 <arch> the overpowering thing still happens now lol, check out channel 6 next time you get your radio out
11:28:41 <Ampera> Halcyon, that's one nasty fuser
11:33:26 <Halcyon> What's on Channel 6 where you are? Over here 1 to 8 are the repeater TX channels. I assume it's fairly standard everywhere?
11:40:53 <arch> ch9 is supposed to be for emergencies, but ive found random shit on it
11:41:19 <arch> and ch6 is a wild west. rest of the channels are ok in central NY
11:41:49 <arch> but at night, i hear silence on channel 6. not sure if weather has a lot to do with things
11:50:54 <Halcyon> Over here I think it's 5 and 35
11:51:28 <Halcyon> But 35 is a repeater input which is a bit weird
11:51:34 <Halcyon> I think it's only used as a secondary
12:10:53 * arch bounces radio waves off electrohead's head
12:12:42 * Ampera bounces arch like a rubber ball
12:24:14 <electrohead> lol
12:24:43 <electrohead> Dial up chronicles has a live stream in a few minutes
12:25:24 <Halcyon> Oooer
12:25:31 <electrohead> https://www.youtube.com/live/1P97JIAhpXQ
12:25:31 <Halcyon> I might pop in, I'll see how I go. I should be doing work.

12:25:38 <electrohead> lol
12:25:44 <electrohead> Well, there's a link for those interested
12:25:52 <electrohead> I'm just hanging and waiting on a print to finish

12:57:44 <Ampera> K it was a beautiful owl and I loved it
12:57:46 <Ampera> <3
13:40:59 <arch> how do you do, fellow cybersexuals?
13:41:20 <arch> Ampera, what owl?
14:12:32 <Ampera> hi
14:59:28 <Halcyon> Hey Ampera
15:00:39 <MrMobodies> Pissed off!
15:00:46 <MrMobodies> oops scroll stuck
15:00:48 <MrMobodies> https://www.freestylersupport.com/wiki/external_control
15:00:48 <EEVBot> [url] External control - Overview [FreeStyler Wiki] | www.freestylersupport.com
15:01:09 <MrMobodies> "FreeStyler supports external control using a simple TCP/IP connection. Developers can communicate with FreeStyler using either a simple byte[] or ASCII protocol. "
15:01:21 <MrMobodies> I wonder HOW?
15:01:39 <MrMobodies> what do I use to send the command
15:01:44 <MrMobodies> they don't seem to say
15:04:51 <MrMobodies> I see "developers can commnunicate" vs at the bottom "reestyler can be remotely controlled via smart phone or tablet, *allowing the user*"
15:05:00 <MrMobodies> *So they think the user is stupid!
15:05:16 <MrMobodies> and not going to directly control it
15:05:33 <MrMobodies> and want them to use a stupid APP on their phone
15:07:12 <MrMobodies> I wonder, what do I use, puttytel raw port.... oh look that one doesn't even say what port
15:07:25 <MrMobodies> compared to 3.5.7 manual
15:07:35 <MrMobodies> port 3332
15:08:48 <MrMobodies> using the FreestylerConsoleApplication.exe I found somewhere but it doesn't seem to work if running an other accounts even under otheruser

15:32:57 <MrMobodies> 24/11/2013 "Telnet server"
15:33:23 <MrMobodies> Looks like they obscure that informaiton
15:33:28 <MrMobodies> and discourage othrs
15:33:35 <MrMobodies> so they can go and use a stupid "app"
15:34:01 <MrMobodies> DMX4telnet
15:34:55 <MrMobodies> well that's very nice of archive.org
15:35:07 <MrMobodies> to store things
15:39:52 <steve30> electrohead, cool, i have an asterisk running on a raspberry pu but i don't really use it
15:43:06 <MrMobodies> aaah it started to work, Puttytel was set on SSH
15:43:14 <MrMobodies> silly me
15:43:42 <MrMobodies> "FSOC002255”" and the blackout message appeared
15:43:50 <MrMobodies> much easier than I thought
15:44:22 <Halcyon> I called Steve on his Asterisk server ages ago
15:47:05 * steve30 has been using that newfangled VoLTE recently
15:47:38 <electrohead> lol
15:50:11 <steve30> on the subject of telephones, i think i willtry and make a doctors appointment at the surgery i registered at last month
15:50:20 <steve30> and see if they understand the concept of dialing the right number
15:57:13 <electrohead> heh
15:57:50 <electrohead> my current 'pbx' is a raspberry pi, but I want something more powerful, and with a proper fxs/fxo card in it
15:58:05 <electrohead> been wanting to do this for a while now, and finally just doing it
16:03:41 <MrMobodies> just found Plink from puttytel does the job
16:03:52 <MrMobodies> ooh a pbx on a raspberry pie
16:04:00 <MrMobodies> voip phone
16:09:15 <MrMobodies> what I can't understand is, why not mention say telnet... nope "developes can talk to it... users use stupid apps"
16:12:50 <steve30> My Grandstream ATA has an FXO port which I did use but I don't have a landline anymore
16:13:12 <MrMobodies> On the links to the stupid "APPS" they are PAID for
16:13:17 <steve30> So it did route incoming landline calls into the PiPBX and out to the VoIP phone
16:13:37 <MrMobodies> I see a pattern, obscure information and make it difficult so they buy the apps to do something so basic
