14:20:36 <EEVBot> [url] Negative Electricity Prices: Without Smart Meters, the Savings Potential Remains Untapped | www.techem.com
14:21:16 <MrMobodies> Looks to me like they are trying to encourage people onto price unsecured variable rates
14:22:52 <MrMobodies> They seem to assume that it will benefit them... everybody
14:23:13 <MrMobodies> where they find theyd have to work around the market at off peak times
14:24:15 <MrMobodies> "Electricity is becoming the *predictable* foundation"... how can it be "predictable" when the price could go up or down at any time.
14:24:35 <MrMobodies> What do you think of that
14:27:13 <MrMobodies> if they were to advertise dynamic pricing/ off peak hours via a seperate meter so you could, say, charge your car to take advantage of those rates and keep your existing meter for your household use, now would't that be more flexible and sincere?
14:33:34 <MrMobodies> oh actually I know the Violin man down the road has a similar arrangement, he has one electric board & meter for the back of shop for his living quarters and another on the other end of the builder for his business, where he has a deal where he'd use the business supply to power up his electric heaters.

20:38:33 <K> BANANA PEOPLE, RESPOND!
20:38:43 * K shakes the box
21:48:25 <MrMobodies> Hello
21:50:27 <MrMobodies> Two old lady's at the pub told me about this peddle that came with a drum kit they brought that has this tiny trs jack I smaller than a 3.55m that was suppose to it into the unit
21:50:39 <MrMobodies> so it's loose but does control things
21:51:08 <MrMobodies> and the peddle keeps on moving away or sliding on the carpet
21:51:27 Join: Nothing\ ([email protected]) to #EEVblog
21:51:28 <MrMobodies> when they told me the size, half of their hand
21:52:02 <MrMobodies> I asked, did you get it from TEMU again? YES
21:52:05 <Nothing\> lol i found my tomagotchi i had when i was like 10. Put some new batteries in him and he's good as new.
21:52:08 <MrMobodies> https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1k2ydn1rz8o
21:52:08 <EEVBot> [url] EU fines Temu €200m for allowing sale of illegal products - BBC News | www.bbc.co.uk
21:52:51 <MrMobodies> I warned them about shopping there, one mixer for £7? that had broke DC jack had this flat lithium battery LOOSE in there moving about.
21:53:43 <Nothing\> MrMobodies, not surprising. Hell, amazon was busted selling radioactive trinkets with powdered thorium oxide in them. They were marketed as "negative ion generators" which is ironic because the alpha particles in emits are positively charged, not that they care.
21:53:48 <MrMobodies> bet that tomagotchi was a lot better made than pretty much any one TEMU.
21:54:35 <Nothing\> they idea is it's a little pendant or piece of jewelery or metal wand that's full of radioactive thorium that's supposed to make you healthier because it's the 1950s again
21:55:36 <MrMobodies> Oh wasn't that was the time when they had all that EMF rubbish and overpriced pen drives selling on there and the UK government busted a few sellers who were claiming these USB pen drives had "education" on it.
21:55:39 <Nothing\> the worst part is because it's powdered thorium oxide, in some of the products like the pen/wand thing you can easily open it and contaminate absolutely everything with radioactive powder. Including your lungs
21:56:10 <Nothing\> MrMobodies, nah this was a separate incident actually involving the nuclear regulatory committee getting involve
21:56:15 <MrMobodies> So it could affect youg lungs nasty
21:56:25 <Nothing\> it WILL affect the lungs with cancer
21:56:37 <Nothing\> not to mention you're meant to wear these things 24/7
21:57:14 <Nothing\> it's by far the most disgusting snake oil product i've seen online. And that was amazon. Not even a China-company
21:58:03 <MrMobodies> I wonder if I could get that pendant on TEMU
21:58:05 <MrMobodies> that's a joke
21:58:50 <Nothing\> JESUS FUCK
21:59:13 <Nothing\> i looked up tamagotchis on amazon, just the newly released ones are going for like $50 after taxes
21:59:31 <Nothing\> and the display is still the same LCD matrix
22:00:09 <MrMobodies> I remembered 10 years afo
22:00:22 <MrMobodies> you could get industrial lasers in toys on Amazon
22:00:48 <Nothing\> what, like cutters?
22:00:53 <MrMobodies> and yobs started shining them back in my area at night where two of them eventually got caught
22:01:03 <Nothing\> of course
22:01:06 <MrMobodies> pen toys they were putting them in
22:01:13 <MrMobodies> the ones used to shine patterns on wall
22:01:22 <MrMobodies> but they had the strength of industrial ones
22:01:57 <Nothing\> ah yeah that's still the case. You buy any laser or flashlight from China and it's always like 100mw or for the flashlight it's like 100,000 lumens
22:02:11 <Nothing\> which is like 10x staring into the day time sun
22:02:42 <MrMobodies> can't find the article anymore
22:02:45 <Nothing\> MrMobodies, or the poor sods who thought they were cat toys
22:03:03 <MrMobodies> but it was common in other area's too
22:03:03 <MrMobodies> https://www.facebook.com/SpottedNG4/posts/please-post-dear-carlton-parents-if-your-child-has-a-green-laser-light-you-live-/1222012967845892/
22:03:04 <EEVBot> [url] Error | www.facebook.com
22:03:12 <Nothing\> i'm super careful with lasers around my cats and i still end up accidentally flagging one of their eyes
22:03:28 <Nothing\> but i just use "<5mw"
22:03:52 <Nothing\> although they say that, but looking into it to see how bright it is for my cats is dazzling
22:04:22 <Nothing\> oh god, green of all colors, too
22:04:43 <MrMobodies> been going on since 2008 apparently
22:04:44 <MrMobodies> http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7651466.stm
22:04:44 <EEVBot> [url] BBC NEWS | UK | Laser pens face sales crackdown | news.bbc.co.uk
22:05:03 <MrMobodies> shining them on planes
22:05:12 <Nothing\> green is a bad color to get real cheap because it actually puts out infarared primarily. It's only stepped down to green light by a frequency doubler
22:05:17 <Nothing\> so, there
22:06:59 <Nothing\> a ver real risk of ifrared leaking out with the green. Which, your eyes don't detect infared, so you have no blink reflex to protect them from bright light. It just literally cooks your retinas like a magnifying glass focusing the sun to burn a piece of paper
22:07:50 <Nothing\> normally they put an infrared filter on the lasers and it's no problem. But as you can imagine, the cheap ones don't even bother.
22:08:25 <Nothing\> eww the coil on my ecig needs changing
22:09:30 <MrMobodies> Thanks for that, learning something new everyday
22:09:45 <Nothing\> i try to make that one of my goals
22:10:11 <MrMobodies> I put up empty boxes on my window back at my old address to block out the new horrible LED street light
22:10:24 <Nothing\> sometimes people ask me how i know so much random information about such a broad range of subjects, and i tell them that's exactly why.
22:10:28 <MrMobodies> and put some more up when I had the yobs shine their green lazers through it
22:10:52 <Nothing\> you learn one, or two or even a few things each day and after 10 years you're doing shit you never thought possible
22:11:12 <Nothing\> or at least wrapping your head around shit you never thought possible
22:11:25 <MrMobodies> In Essex, places like Romford and Harold Hill, they have other ideas to learning
22:11:45 <MrMobodies> kid asks the parent a question, parent responds, "SHUT UP!"
22:11:51 <MrMobodies> "None of your business"
22:11:58 <MrMobodies> "You're TOO YOUNG!"
22:12:02 <MrMobodies> Essex
22:12:16 <MrMobodies> except for the upper class towns I don't hear that
22:12:28 <Nothing\> that's standard everywhere
22:12:32 <MrMobodies> Essex, we don't have to do this or that so we're not going to
22:12:36 <Nothing\> kids shouldn't be seen, only heard
22:12:39 <MrMobodies> Up north, if we can do it we will.
22:12:45 <Nothing\> according to them, anyways
22:12:46 <MrMobodies> yes
22:13:13 <MrMobodies> you kid was not falling strict instruction set by an advanced thinker for the mass majority! it's all their fault!
22:13:19 <Nothing\> meanwhile, my daughter helped treat this horrible rash i've had on my face and scalp all me life, seborheic dermatitis
22:13:21 <MrMobodies> when they might not understand what is asked of them
22:14:05 <Nothing\> makes these big red, literally swollen spots on my skin that evenually flake up and skin falls off to reveal raw painful weeping skin underneath. It's a mess.
22:14:12 <MrMobodies> oh I had something similar in 2015, doctor gave me this cream
22:14:21 <Nothing\> but i was shopping with her one day and for fun i told her to pick out me shampoo for me
22:14:47 <MrMobodies> that was due to the poo of the pigeon mites that got in from under the solar panels back at my old address
22:14:50 <Nothing\> of all the shampoos she grabbed, she grabbed this medicated one that's meant to treat the exact condition i have. which i didn't even know existed. hehe
22:15:21 <Nothing\> ever since then, it's been almost completel better
22:15:44 <MrMobodies> oh that's nice
22:15:50 <Nothing\> i have to wash my entire head, face and all with it every single day or i break out like crazy. But i thought it was remarkable.
22:16:14 <Nothing\> exactly, and if i hadn't listened to her or taught her to keep her mouth shut, i never would have found it
22:17:07 <Nothing\> yeah the immune system sucks when it overreacts
22:18:59 <Nothing\> quaff the sweet nepenthe that i might borrow some surcease from sorrow
22:19:51 <Nothing\> maaaan MrMobodies
22:20:11 <Nothing\> you know, i wouldn't even know anything's wrong with my collarbone the way it's feeling
22:20:20 <Nothing\> i'm half pleased with this lack of pain
22:20:51 <Nothing\> half because i realized i have significant nerve damage and can't feel anything around or under the incision
22:21:36 <Nothing\> as long as it doesn't cripple anything down the line like my arms or hand, and doesn't hurt, i can cope. I have a numb spot on my heel from the diabetes.
22:22:21 <electrohead> !coffee
22:22:21 * EEVBot hooks electrohead up to a coffee IV
22:22:31 <Nothing\> heya electrohead
22:22:50 <Nothing\> i'd almost think i need a coffee but i have to go pee in a cup in 45 minutes
22:23:10 <Nothing\> which is fine, but when i'm waiting around to see the doctor afterwards, it sucks to have to go pee again
22:23:28 <Nothing\> because of the drug testing, their bathroom has 3 different cameras pointing at your junk
22:24:27 <Nothing\> it just doesn't feel right. Though realizistically i know the nurses aren't gonna be staring at the screen for a close up of my willy. at least not unless they suspect I'm messing around.
22:24:49 <Nothing\> yes, realizistically
22:25:32 <Nothing\> real eyes realize real lies
22:26:08 <Nothing\> and... how did it go... Buffalo buffalo buffal Buffalo buffalo...
22:26:13 <Nothing\> osmething like that
22:26:40 <Nothing\> oh fun fact, apparently the word run has more definitions than any other English word
22:27:13 <Nothing\> something like 500+
22:38:53 <electrohead> hey o/
22:50:39 <MrMobodies> https://www.blackpoolgazette.co.uk/news/blackpool-man-found-dead-of-heart-attack-previously-reported-chest-pain-8643743
22:51:04 <MrMobodies> "NOT medically QUALIFIED" is something I am hearing quite recently.
22:51:43 <MrMobodies> things go wrong. "not medically qualified". "lessons HAVE to be learned" not "Haven't"
22:52:45 <MrMobodies> these "clinicians" can mean anybody, including unstrained staff.
22:53:01 <MrMobodies> another word for physician associate
