05:24:08 <Ysjoelfir> sooo... who has played the "new" hitman that seems to pop up on youtube shorts a lot recently?
06:55:55 <rust_collector> not you
07:05:33 <electrohead> well I haven't shaved my head in a long time, so it wasn't me
07:14:08 <rust_collector> and I never post my side job on youtube
07:23:23 <rust_collector> but some times, I find useful information in a youtube shart like this https://www.youtube.com/shorts/jtjtXYuh9kE?feature=share

07:33:44 <rust_collector> oh, you are doing a fun. you can not not hear text
07:33:47 <rust_collector> haha
07:34:15 Quit: Kuschelpony ([email protected]) Quit: Ex-Chat
09:07:13 <MrMobodies> The RFXcom emc arrived today. Not impressed with the after thought and disapponted it lacks options the previous ones did with the built in webserver which only shows for the first time to set IP address and it disappears until restore/reset
09:07:36 <MrMobodies> but it does seem to receive messages faster without stalling
09:07:52 <MrMobodies> the usb one use to stall if too many messages came in
09:14:50 <MrMobodies> https://i.postimg.cc/RZR6t4J9/Rfxcom-PCB-afterthought.jpg
09:15:21 <MrMobodies> What a CRAP afterthought with that PCB board STICKING OUT one the edge like tike
09:15:36 <MrMobodies> if that were to fall that could break
09:17:19 <MrMobodies> so I velcro the ethernet block ontop from the pcb edge sticking out and wrap velcro around it to protect it.
09:17:30 <MrMobodies> and give it more stability
09:18:17 <MrMobodies> don't you think that is a silly idea when they could have put the connector inward on the side or even on the top?
10:02:23 <rust_collector> what is the sticky out bit doing? if it is not supposed to be used all the time, I guess it would be ok
10:06:32 Quit: Halcyon ([email protected]) Client exited
10:23:54 <MrMobodies> It joins onto the PCB and has a connector to the ethernet module
10:24:10 <MrMobodies> the previous version was all in one box
10:24:57 <MrMobodies> The kit is still selling but only in some places in Europe. As soon as I login to the shop it disappears from the shop
10:27:08 <MrMobodies> http://rfxcom.com/RFXtrxLAN/en
10:27:08 <EEVBot> [url] RFXtrxLAN for RFXtrx433XL | rfxcom.com
10:27:41 <MrMobodies> So I'd take out the main pcb (excluding and desoldering that after-thought pcb thing that sticks out)
10:27:52 <MrMobodies> and connect the pins into there
10:28:08 <MrMobodies> which would be a more tider solution
10:29:09 <MrMobodies> I think the RFXCOM module mounts on the other side of that one
10:29:49 <MrMobodies> if I can get that or 50 euro's that'd be great but don't seem to ship hear and no response from RFXCOM
10:29:54 <MrMobodies> when I enquired
10:30:12 <MrMobodies> but anyway the velcro saved the day
10:30:41 <MrMobodies> https://i.postimg.cc/t4wfhZ1N/image.png
10:31:20 <MrMobodies> the ethernet module is ontop on parallel with that tiny pcb connector connected by a ribbon cable
10:32:07 <MrMobodies> and I secured it down with velcro and wrapped it over and under that pcb after-thought thing so it's protect and no exposed
10:32:39 <MrMobodies> another concern was that if it fell over and the pins under the connector touch something metal that couldn't be good
10:36:31 <MrMobodies> https://i.postimg.cc/371f5VNY/image.png

10:37:39 <MrMobodies> https://i.postimg.cc/xdPv9BSG/image.png
10:37:53 <rust_collector> strap the thing down, so it does not wobble around?
10:38:19 <MrMobodies> Got to be better than exposing the solder joints underneath and chance of it breaking
10:38:21 <MrMobodies> oh yes
10:38:31 <MrMobodies> I did consider strapping it down to a piece of wood
10:38:44 <MrMobodies> or metal which I'll do at some point
10:39:20 <MrMobodies> but I only got that yesterday and wanted a temporary solution
10:39:37 <MrMobodies> to protect that and help it balance
10:39:43 <MrMobodies> I mean stand
10:43:07 <MrMobodies> Looks like I got ripped off 1000%

10:49:10 <MrMobodies> they just sold it under a different brand name
10:51:16 <MrMobodies> my patience was wearing thin, I ordered some others incase which is what I do and the others were crap (introducing other noises when connected) and sent them back as I know not all of them are going to be the same as they claim to be.
10:52:08 <MrMobodies> with the Boss one it was the other way round, garbage under a good name.

12:25:29 <MrMobodies> Every year my mum gets me a Thornton Classic eater egg
12:25:45 <MrMobodies> Not the best tasting but okay
12:26:19 <MrMobodies> This time there is something different, it doesn't take like coca... a horrible taste
12:27:07 <MrMobodies> https://i.postimg.cc/RZCjTxVT/Thorntons-Classic-EGG.jpg
12:29:05 <MrMobodies> https://i.postimg.cc/BbcVxmW8/Thortons-Classic-LIE.jpg
12:30:05 <MrMobodies> How can it be called "CLASSIC" when the ingredients have changed so much I am starting to notice? How can it be called "classic" when it has "Palm oil" and "palm" stuff that wasn't in there before
12:31:49 <MrMobodies> and the sweats in there followed the Milktray last year when it went up in price and they filled it with this awful "Honeycrumb crunch" thing they substituted with other sweats.
12:32:36 <MrMobodies> it had the same "honeycomb crunch" instead of just two and the taste is not the that I remember.
12:35:39 <MrMobodies> "*Carefully select ingredients" to create something you can be proud off" LIARS! they changed the ingredients, then put palm oil on it and that ruined the taste for me. They did't "carefully" select the ingredients anymore... when they just simply copied what everyone else where doing, like Cadburies.
12:37:47 <MrMobodies> "make our Easter egg uniquely"... not when they are alligning to ingredients that Cadbury's use for cheapess. I'll ask my mum not to buy that rubbish again and to check the back and not bother if it's got all that in it.

12:53:51 <MrMobodies> Looks like things have changed with them
12:55:00 <MrMobodies> 60 mph train
12:58:06 <MrMobodies> The C2C trains in London are capable of 100mph but capped at 75mph which is the max for the line
13:00:59 <MrMobodies> I remembered in 2003, sometimes when I came out of the cinema I use to stop at Thorntons (physical shop in the mall) and buy myself a whole load of a few types, like the lemon, and honey, and gobble the whole lot up during the night.
13:01:40 <MrMobodies> The last time I tried that lemon, it tasted very bland to me but the coca was alright until just now.
13:03:27 <MrMobodies> I remembered in about the 2000's, my mum and dad use to go to say Devon or Cornwall and bring me back some hand made fudges all made in the shops there.
13:08:48 <MrMobodies> In 2006, pretty much most of the shops there no longer made them but they were still selling them labelled on the lines of "Devon... hand made fudges.
13:09:29 <MrMobodies> She said to me on back of the packet "Prepared and made in Romford ... for..." from an industrial estate and Romford is where we they came from. They travelled 200 to be served rubbish.
13:11:38 <MrMobodies> she had big argument with the shop keeper about it being labelled "Devon hand made fudges" when it was made in a factory 200 miles away.
13:12:38 <MrMobodies> the shopkeeper argument to her was "it's competition to keep prices down"...
13:13:13 <MrMobodies> more like deception on the front of the package.
13:14:29 <MrMobodies> but where's the choice...
