03:26:26 <arch> Halcyon, https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/1rr7rm6/the_odds_of_parachuting_down_and_being_attacked/
03:35:04 <K> fucking jumping rats
03:36:28 <arch> that and the one where the dude punches a kangaroo in the face to save his dog are two of my favorite kangaroo clips lol
03:45:00 <K> yeah
03:45:34 <K> the fucker gets punched and then just stands for seconds like "whot happendddddd"
03:45:45 <K> "the audacittyyyuyy!"
03:47:57 <MrMobodies> Hello
03:48:23 <MrMobodies> Spent a few hours drawing some diagrams
03:49:14 <MrMobodies> Halycon, I wonder if this makes better sense
03:49:32 <MrMobodies> this is what it was intended for
03:49:33 <MrMobodies> https://i.postimg.cc/sj97nWtF/IR-Control-Onecomputer.jpg
03:50:24 <MrMobodies> Here is what I want it do without four routers on pfsense:
03:50:25 <MrMobodies> https://i.postimg.cc/sj97nWtF/IR-Control-Onecomputer.jpg
03:51:00 <K> IR stands for what? Infra-Red?
03:51:02 <MrMobodies> Here is what the plugins that send the data to the transmitter looks like:
03:51:02 <MrMobodies> https://i.postimg.cc/SRHxKVtF/Eventghost-wth-Keene-Ir-Plugins.jpg
03:51:16 <MrMobodies> yes sorry that's what I mean't.
03:51:56 <rust_collector> often Ingersoll Rand
03:52:32 <K> Indubitably Rusty
03:52:53 <MrMobodies> If I could do that on the lan or with pfsense WITHOUT 4 routers in the middle(keene IR goes by source IP to route to whatever Infra Red output) that'd be great.
03:52:58 <K> MrMobodies - that looks like a lot of hardware for what, to me, seems like a small thing
03:53:04 <rust_collector> so many options
03:53:07 <MrMobodies> yes, that's the problem
03:53:24 <MrMobodies> the Keene Matrix and plugin seems inflexible
03:53:55 <MrMobodies> I can't DIRECT the IR code to what output I want on the Matrix from the plugin itself.
03:54:02 <MrMobodies> it does it by SOURCE IP
03:54:13 <MrMobodies> so that's the limitation
03:55:11 <K> mh, but you can have more than one IP address per network card
03:55:23 <MrMobodies> Oh yes, but that's not the issue here
03:56:10 <MrMobodies> I don't want to setup, 4 computers or virtual machines, with 4 copies of event ghosts, and copy remote control codes over
03:56:28 <MrMobodies> to use the IR routing on the matrix (which goes by source ip)
03:56:46 <MrMobodies> source IP 1 <IR PORT 1>
03:56:51 <MrMobodies> source IP 2 <IR PORT 2>
03:56:55 <MrMobodies> source IP 3 <IR PORT 3>
03:57:00 <MrMobodies> source IP 4 <IR PORT 4>
03:57:45 <MrMobodies> I am think whether Pfsense could help with this using some virtual IP addresses that'd be forwarded with a source ip that's correspond on it's it routing tabe
03:57:47 <MrMobodies> ooh dinner
04:00:49 <Ysjoelfir> oy! mornings arch, my favorite fucker :D it's tomorrow, yet, you still don't see me! ha!
04:01:13 <Ysjoelfir> also, mornings to all others that I love exactly the same amount <3
04:03:29 <K> holla
04:03:36 <K> Ysjoelfir and also Kuschelpony
04:03:50 <Kuschelpony> ?
04:03:55 <Ysjoelfir> Hi K
04:04:01 * Ysjoelfir kuschels the Pony
04:04:06 <rust_collector> tralala
04:04:14 * Ysjoelfir kuschels the rust_collector as well
04:04:15 <K> not touching your troalala, rust_collector
04:04:27 <rust_collector> good good

04:04:45 <Ysjoelfir> about touching tralalalas....
04:05:00 <rust_collector> wth did you do?
04:05:02 <Ysjoelfir> btw, rust_collector, they played that on P11 recently. I was..... kinda confused.
04:05:06 <rust_collector> Video unavailable
04:05:06 <rust_collector> This video contains content from WMG, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds
04:05:12 <Ysjoelfir> lol
04:05:38 <rust_collector> why? it is a song. they can radio that
04:07:34 <MrMobodies> I remembered that happened sometime before, a song made in blocked in Britain on copyright grounds by some overseas label.
04:07:54 <Ysjoelfir> sure. but... its THAT song. I also agree with BobTheBob647 in the comments. 5% music, 95% moustache = 100% touching tra la la
04:08:03 <MrMobodies> oops a song made in Britain blocked on copyright grouds by overseas label who brought it over
04:08:13 * Ysjoelfir needs to enlarge his 'stache
04:08:20 <rust_collector> I think more people are confused by the guy being swedish
04:08:57 <Ysjoelfir> is he?
04:09:10 <rust_collector> maybe? probably
04:09:25 <rust_collector> I told you the swedes want to be germans...
04:09:40 <Ysjoelfir> true
04:11:39 <rust_collector> if you look close, you can see his swedishness seeping thru
04:19:30 <Ysjoelfir> I can almost see the Surströmming oozing out, together with the onions and the Knäckebröt
04:20:23 <rust_collector> they also consume the belarussian mango

04:53:18 <Ysjoelfir> So. Created a dinner, or something simmilar.
04:53:33 <Ysjoelfir> And, as usual, I completely overdid the amounts. who wants some?
04:59:42 <steve30> mmm, dinner
05:18:28 <rust_collector> yeah, give it to the steve. he needs some food. (pinches steves cheek, like a grandma)
05:20:09 * Ysjoelfir shares happily with steve30

05:22:37 <Ysjoelfir> dang it, i will never be able to replicate that, as i have a severe lack of available kangaroo poop
05:23:51 <rust_collector> yeap, it is an issue. otoh, they have some difficulty in measuring radiation down there, so it evens out
05:39:19 <MrMobodies> https://www.asthmaandlung.org.uk/conditions/asthma/manage/asthma-review
05:39:19 <EEVBot> [url] Your asthma review | Asthma + Lung UK | www.asthmaandlung.org.uk
05:39:37 <MrMobodies> This bit: "You may be offered an asthma review over the phone or online via video."
05:39:57 <MrMobodies> Without the testing equipment.
05:40:22 <MrMobodies> "Asthma reviews done remotely are considered safe."... without it being done accurate with no equipment?
05:41:00 <MrMobodies> I think this charity has become as corrupted as with all the other charities that pretend to work for the patients.
05:41:26 <Ysjoelfir> "please jerk off 20 times real fast and keep on telling me about your worst day at the grocery store." "ok, I can't hear you anymore and you sound like you're about to die, your lung capacity is at 27.8%".
05:41:29 <Ysjoelfir> Sounds totally legit to me?
05:43:05 <MrMobodies> Joke: " If you are struggling with *your inhaler technique*... ask for a face to face appointment." Just replace that with "SUCKING UP THAT POWDER*
05:43:15 <MrMobodies> without the propellant
05:43:19 <rust_collector> mmm
05:43:55 <MrMobodies> Sick of hearing "you're not doing it correctly" from these "health professonals"
05:55:52 <MrMobodies> I think what I need is some proxy configuration
05:56:01 <MrMobodies> https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11525703/port-forwarding-in-windows
05:56:02 <EEVBot> [url] port forwarding in windows - Stack Overflow | stackoverflow.com
05:56:41 <MrMobodies> that'd maybe better doing it on the host than relying on Pfsense for this
05:57:47 <MrMobodies> Something running on the host that, listens for an incoming IP address and then relays the packets to a different IP.
05:59:51 <MrMobodies> host -> eventghost Keene IR plugin #2 -> proxy IP -> Keene Matrix -> output 2 (proxy ip is expected on the Matrix Infra Red routing table.)
06:00:07 <MrMobodies> as the source address I mean
06:25:39 <steve30> Youtube has come up with some AI ideas for me: "The Cultural Impact Of Brass Bands Performing Disco Classics At Protest Rallies"
07:03:52 <Ysjoelfir> that sounds like a banger
07:07:10 <steve30> Another one is Documentary of Sheffield's Secret Underground Tunnels and Forgotten Victorian Era Drainage Systems
07:07:23 <steve30> and it suggests filming that one with my Canon XL1.
07:07:51 <steve30> rust_collector would probably like that one tbh, but its a bit impractical for me. Also my XL1 doesn't work.
07:09:51 <rust_collector> I think enough people has filmed that. I would not mind seeing parts of that myself, but I probably will not watch one more video of it.
07:10:49 <rust_collector> at least the big one, that, iIrc, ends up sort of under the train station...or starts, or...
07:11:08 <steve30> You don't want a steve30 video guided tour of the megatron then?
07:11:32 <rust_collector> well, I might watch the guide....
07:11:39 <rust_collector> I mean...
07:12:08 <rust_collector> you tend to comment on stuff other people dont say anything about.
07:12:44 <rust_collector> and ignore some interesting things, lol
07:13:23 <steve30> I've never been in the megatron, so I wouldn't know where to start tbh
07:14:15 <rust_collector> that does not have to be a bad thing.
07:15:24 <rust_collector> but, I think there are a few other underground things in that city, that you maybe could make into some interesting video
07:16:40 <steve30> There is a secret doorway opposite the train station :p ...
07:17:53 <rust_collector> hope you have some good boots

10:56:21 <hsn> Hola
12:23:33 <MrMobodies> Just reading what the surgeries are up to recently.

12:24:00 <MrMobodies> Tickboxing
12:24:17 <MrMobodies> Quote "The invitation letter said they would lose funding if I didn't go for my review."
12:25:13 <MrMobodies> Tickboxing to make money to patients through "the system!" which will signpost them alter their prescription to cheaper alternatives.
12:26:38 <MrMobodies> No qualified or specialist becuase, they use "the system!". If it goes wrong and they get in trouble, "oh we're just using "the system!" nothing to do with us... that's what "the system!" told us to do.
12:29:00 <MrMobodies> It reminds me of the same kind of tick boxing they use to do at schools and the Local Edudcation Authorities in the 1990's to deny special needs students access to services like speech therapiy.
12:30:41 <MrMobodies> They choose tests (out of the many) based on things they know they can't do based on their disabiity so when they fail they'll claim they have an IQ of less of 70 therefore not entitled, or has so and so condition so no.
12:33:16 <MrMobodies> Maybe that's where this practice started out. They were merging all the categories of special needs schools together, lumping everyone under one umbrella and attempt to standardise everything on the cheap. Now it's in GP surgeries.

14:12:00 <MrMobodies> RCA Ground Loop Noise Isolator turned up from Amazon. It has a button. One setting and the noise turns on.
14:12:28 <MrMobodies> So it looks like i'd be keeping the motherboard after all now I can use the Emu 1820m with it
14:12:34 <MrMobodies> or other sound cards

14:53:23 * steve30 is watching a very long video about video editing
14:53:39 <MrMobodies> so instead of 4 machines (by the source address)
16:05:05 <MrMobodies> think I am going to enjoy a nice little rest, knowing I don't have to package that motherboard back open, seal it, and arrange for a return now that noise isolator solved the biggest killer.

18:06:44 <n4sa> Just watching a flashback video of the VAIO UX teardown from 9 years ago. About to pull mine apart and work out why it won't turn on.
18:09:19 <n4sa> Won't turn on with the battery out either so not sure what it could be. There's no removable RAM module in this model, and I can't see a replaceable CMOS battery
18:12:34 Join: krish2487 ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
18:46:16 <flyback> some laptops now don't use a cmos battery
18:46:34 <flyback> really stupid design cause when the main battery goes into cutoff the cmos resets
18:47:20 <flyback> they should have paired it with a supercap which would keep the cmos going for weeks
18:47:24 <flyback> that would be reasonable
19:45:11 <Ysjoelfir> cost cutting at its finest!

21:21:13 <K> and the FUCKING WINTER IS OVER
21:21:36 <K> i cant stop saying that
21:30:01 <Ysjoelfir> poor winter :(
