01:12:27 <steve30> Just got some packs of chocolate cookies at morrisons on reduced for 44p each
01:28:03 <steve30> Halcyon, i'd say that chromakeying looks fine
01:28:08 <steve30> especially for the 1980s
03:10:50 <arch> steve30, https://slm-assets.secondlife.com/assets/10096057/lightbox/Diabeetus.jpg
03:17:07 <arch> man these ARRL are really getting on my nerves. keep on sending me signup mail every week
04:07:00 <rc-garage> so, sign up, and they will start sending you a different kind of mail?

05:32:21 <arch> um no. that's how you end up being homeless after spending thousands of dollars on the fanciest multi band transceiver radios
05:51:59 <rc-garage> well, that was your purpose in life. at least you will be a fat bald guy with a big white beard, and a very nice spectrum analyser
05:52:52 <steve30> YouTube is now sometimes just saying "Experiencing Interruptions?"
05:53:05 <steve30> instead of "Experiencing Interruptions? Find out why"
05:54:07 <rc-garage> that saves them from sending 13 pieces of data to every user, I guess. maybe it is their environmental power saving project

06:52:19 <arch> woohoo, saving 2c!
06:56:46 <rc-garage> that is more than I would expect from that company
07:09:42 <arch> steve30, soon they will change that to "Experiencing?" and then "?"
07:10:24 <MrMobodies> Hello
07:11:09 <steve30> probably
07:11:14 <MrMobodies> Now this is why my dad is being harassed by Anglian Water to swap our mechanical meter (there when we moved) to a smart meter
07:11:18 <MrMobodies> https://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/consumer-affairs/homes-with-bigger-gardens-penalised-higher-water-bills/

07:11:26 <MrMobodies> "g billing experiments to tackle climate change, including using smart meters to set “personalised” water consumption targets."
07:11:48 <MrMobodies> Yep, penalize them, at when they use water and how much.
07:12:50 <MrMobodies> The price of water just keeps on going up and that seems just unfair. Why not just make it unmeasured.
07:13:05 <MrMobodies> if it goes over
07:14:51 <MrMobodies> Absolutely disgusting why they can't leave people alone, now they want to terrify them through their meters with financialy penalties for using more.
07:15:02 <MrMobodies> or at certain times
07:16:06 <MrMobodies> I heard from someone earlier today that the works had stopped in Huntingdon reservoir and the water will not be flowing to Cambridgeshire but will be diverted to London.
07:16:41 <MrMobodies> and his friend who own's that land was forced to sell it and is devastated
07:16:54 <MrMobodies> well some of that land and his neighbours
07:17:37 <MrMobodies> he said the land was sentimental to him worth more than the money
