Title: What did you do today?
Post by: TheSoulhunter on Wed, 10 July 2013, 06:41:32
As the title says...
Apart from your daily routine (showering, eating, working, whatever) what have you done?


I start:

After long time I decided to buy some music CDs again, but after listening through em I remembered why I stopped buying CDs back then. Half of the content was clipped and the majority of the other half had some other defects like pops, clicks or stream corruptions, there was even some weird short high frequency pulse in continuous pattern in one track which under closer inspection (checking the waveform) looked like some sort of audio watermarking. Well, long story short... As I really like the music and don't wanna see my money wasted, I spend today and yesterday manually fixing the waveforms  :))

So, what did you do today?

I woke up at 4:49 AM to my cat jumping on my chest.  I showered and dressed.  I did some Geekhackery and some job searching (like every day). The one non-standard thing I'll be doing is making a custom order cable today since the stuff came in to make it.

I got up 7 AM and cycled 50 km on my roadbike, got back , showered , took the metro to work and got there just past 9.30.

Talked to a group of colleagues about a field experiment we are planning for august, everyone liked my ideas. Win. Worked on an old paper the rest of the day, need to present it again at some point and had some things I still needed to change.

Went and met my girlfriend in the city and we ate at KFC * classy *
Then we went home and watched "Master chef Australia" which she loves for some reason, even though she does not cook.

Finally played 2 games of Dota2 Captain's mode with 4 friends and won both. I played Elder Titan in one and Night Stalker in the other. My girlfriend came in and asked me to proofread something, then got annoyed when I said I was in the middle of a game. Won the argument afterwards by saying that I am always willing to help, but it is unfair to demand that I drop whatever I am doing that very second, which she agreed with. Did my routine situps, pushups and bicep curls. Took a shower afterwards.

Then I went online and checked geekhack, which is now.

The rest of the day only includes cleaning the cat litter box and going to sleep. I might read some Hajime no ippo (manga) on my mobile phone in bed. I have trouble falling asleep. Oh damn 0:56 I need to get to bed.

Absolutely nothing. I am trying to reverse my rhythm so that I can get a daily routine. I have been tired all the time, so the most strenous thing I have done have been to read. I have done about 250-300 pages in the past 24 hours.

I just made a large milk shake by putting in about 4 big scoops of Blue Bell strawberry ice cream and then milk.  I didn't use a blender, but I just mushed it all together with the spoon.  Darn it was so good, I'm tempted to be a pig and make another one--but I won't.

I became the happiest person I know, and l completely was relieved of all depression for a while... I got back together with my ex and we watched movies all day and just like chilled and like awkwardly held my arm around her for all the movies and stuff... Legitimately smiled and had fun today, like, for the first time in a looooong time! :D

Today I tried to wire up my SH-Gamepad, but soldering wires directly to the switch-pins didn't look that mechanically stable :/
So, I decided to desoldered all the wires and cut a bricked poker PCB into pieces the next days to sandwich it in between...

Another early gym day, then to work. 

Brought in the MY-7000 board with the ultra-light switch mod and IvanIvanovich's purple modifier pack.  Also lubed the switches, which was a mistake; the remaining leaf spring barely lifts the stock keycap, adding silicone grease to it makes for some pretty sluggish keys.   :'(

I loaned it out to another manager, she wanted something not so clicky to use for notes while on conference calls.  Now I need to get her a MX Black board to try, the only one I have is ISO layout, and she hated the vertical Enter key.

And yes, I hurt.  A lot.

This week I started to code in .NET at work ... again. Damn it feels nice!

Long story short, I've been coding foxpro for like 2,5 years, then started doing .NET half my time and then had to go back full time foxpro because the foxpro team could not deliver without me. Was supposed to be temporary, lasted 2,5 years... never going back again!

We'll sales were low, but the products were well received.  I gave a lot of cards away to interested parties so we will see if any of them follow up.

It was a hard pitch - and I get it....but I was hoping I could flip a few more people.

Then flew my T-REX 500 for the first time this year.

For those who are not familiar with RC helis - This is not my own collection. The 500 is the largest in this set, and the mCPX the smallest.

I like banks that have national coverage because I travel a lot, and don't want any reason to be away from my money. (And one of those reasons is I hate paying ATM fees...)

Plus I've been a member of this bank since 2004 (Washington Mutual). I know that probably doesn't mean anything, but I like consistency and longevity. But now, I'm contemplating moving. I'll see what they say tonight and make my decision on that.

I've never been charged ATM fees accessing my accounts at any other credit union ATM.  If you get a lot of paper checks it can be a bit tiresome mailing stuff to your home credit union, but since I do most of my banking online, that's rarely an issue.

And none of that; "Oh, you deposited a check larger than usual, so we're going to put a hold on those funds for ten business days."

If you do any international travel, you might want to look into the State Department Federal Credit Union.  Anyone can join, and they are one of the few US banks that issues chip-and-PIN debit cards, the system used by most European banks.  I don't have an account there, but I'm thinking of opening one just to get one of these cards for travel.

people don't understand that the credit union coop = free ATMs everywhere, pretty much anywhere there's another coop CU. you can do shared branch banking too -- i went to portland 2 days after losing a debit card, but since i had direct deposit i just had to go to a CU in portland, give them my account number and home CU and i could withdraw as much as i needed. saved my ass!

I didn't do much. I am a tourist on my last day in Amsterdam, and I have visited the sights that I had intended to visit. I skipped the Anne Frank house and the synagogue. Instead I visited a market today, where I looked at cannabis paraphernalia, and bought a G84 keyboard (Cherry ML) and a couple of t-shirts. The Netherlands is in a heatwave right now, and I was stupid enough to walk around in a pair of black jeans... so I walked around in the heat in search of a pair of good shorts, but there is a sale in every store now, which means that they only have crap or odd sizes left...

Then I took a shower and changed into a t-shirt with a Nyan Cat - motif. Nyan Cat, as you know is trailing a rainbow... I went out to town to look for a place to have pancakes, and then it struck me that it is Gay Pride Week in Amsterdam and that the rainbow on my t-shirt could be misinterpreted as being a gay flag ... So I immediately walked back to the hotel, where I serfed the 'Net and planned the next day before going out for dinner.
A pretty uneventful day...

A co-worker and I were supposed to go for a bike ride after work today, so I got up early to make sure my bike was ready - I haven't ridden it since I moved to Virginia last summer.  Aired up the tires, greased the chain and gears, took off the fenders and tail rack.  Used to commute on my bike in Seattle, and fenders are really useful to keep the mud and road debris off, but Virginia is a lot less rainy.

Got into work and found out my buddy didn't bring his bike after all, so we rescheduled to tomorrow morning.

sc2 is boring if you suck.

But if you're just getting into it NOW, that will be a large hurdle, as the average player skill is going to be much higher than at launch.

Also considering you didn't know this ahead of time, means you're not a person that plays games seriously, and you do not do your research ahead of time, all points to the fac tthat you're not one for details.

SC2 is certainly too difficult a challenge for you.

the name "cheese" is often given to things that are not, in fact, cheese, but are nonetheless tasty. equally often these things have somewhat unsavory production, ie headcheese.

the fact that velveeta probably isn't really cheese, and the fact that i don't really want to know what its made out of, don't stop it from being delicious.

There's a college town by me that has a huge hill that it's very well known for, and the cops will sit at the bottom and hand out speeding tickets to bikers that happen to reach over 25mph.  I've never biked the hill myself, but I can't imagine it'd be that hard to accidentally go too fast.  Your story is obviously much more annoying, since your fine was huuuge.

Just called a local auto body shop, curious to see what their price was to have a keyboard cover painted in an unusual color.  The guy said $250 at the minimum.  My jaw dropped and I said he was crazy.  He kept trying to say that it was not crazy, because I'd be pulling one of his employees from doing something else for 2-3 hours that would cost them $250...   Haha awesome way to do business and what kind of logic is that?  That's how they charge for their services?  Anyway, my most ridiculous experience to date in terms of people naming truly crazy prices for no good reason.  (That's even after I told him that I have a great idea of how painting, sanding, and filling works, as I do it myself--he was still very defensive and argumentative).  Needless to say, this is the primary reason I try to do everything myself.

Well he's trying to make a profit.

You hold a number in your head that's 1:1 with material and labor..

He's not crazy.. His market is to either inept people or lazy people..

If you are NEITHER of those, Kudos...


Just remember, there also exist "Rich" people who put their time into higher ratio payoff scenarios, forgoing low payoff hobbies such as keyboarding and videogaming.

I'm not suggesting that you should become rich, since no greater perceived happiness can be achieved beyond $70,000 yearly income.

I'm merely making the case that market value IS RATIONAL.

I don't think it's rational either.  It's completely over the top.  Even if he said $100 I would scratch my head and say "no thanks".  $250 is like...  in the realm of "do you think I'm a complete moron?"

Sometimes I think body shops quote prices like to discourage small jobs that might require a good deal of finicky masking, taping, sanding, etc.  I had a whole set of body panels painted for a vintage Honda motorcycle, and even though I did most of the prep work myself, the shop told me afterwards they would never have taken the job if they'd realized how complex it would be.

What you should have asked is if you provided a pallet of masked and taped keyboard cases, how much to do 20 or 50 of them.  I suspect the price per unit would drop dramatically, if they could lay a bunch out and shoot them at the same time (and same color...)   ;D
Title: Re: What did you do today?
Post by: Photoelectric on Tue, 13 August 2013, 12:22:45
Perhaps.  I'd rather he just tell me that he prefers to not take on a job like that rather than name a price that he knows any reasonable person won't agree to.  I even mentioned I can do the prep work myself and used to doing painting.  He was just adamant that $250 was the minimum for 2-3 hours of work.......  It's not like it would take that long altogether anyway, there's a lot of waiting in between different stages.  Anyway, I was just curious.
Title: Re: What did you do today?
Post by: HoffmanMyster on Tue, 13 August 2013, 14:22:08
The auto shop experience you had, Photo, comes down to opportunity costs.  If they take your job at Keyboard Market prices they can't take a job at Car Shop market prices, which are likely higher.  Otherwise he'd be choosing between a keyboard at $50 or a car at $250 for the same amount of time (presumably).  He'd choose the car every time.  OR he could offer to take your keyboard, but he needs to get the same money.  It's absurd prices for a keyboard, but at least you have the option (I guess?).  :)  I agree it's not a good price, but he doesn't have much choice.

Of course, if he's not busy he'd be an idiot to not take business - though I suspect he has orders coming in just fine.

For the record, I don't think I'm teaching you anything new here and don't mean to be condescending, but it's important to see it from their point of view.  Profit (and business) is always good, yes, but why not take the option with more profit?

Had fun installing a bunch of new mechanical door locks for the new house, except the pin thingy that sticks out the back of the lock has to be cut down to suit the thickness of the door and I didn't have anything to cut it with.

So didn't really achieve anything, really.

Seriously changed two locks, one of which should have taken 1/10 the time but the old screws wouldn't come out, then the new screws wouldn't go in, then the locking mechanism wouldn't go on, and when it finally did and I was testing the lock from the outside I realised that the lock surround was not straight and the vendor name was rotated about 45 degrees so I had to pull it off and loosen the screws to straighten it, then it wouldn't go back on again and eventually I got it done but it too like 10 times longer than it should have.  Not to mention it is the wrong colour as we couldn't get a new one of this particular lock that matched the other locks in colour but anyway.

Also stopped a plastic corrugated car port roof from flapping about in the wind and driving me absolutely crazy (which didn't help while try to swap locks over).

Supposed to be packing - didn't get that achievement this weekend at all.

Just called a local auto body shop, curious to see what their price was to have a keyboard cover painted in an unusual color.  The guy said $250 at the minimum.  My jaw dropped and I said he was crazy.  He kept trying to say that it was not crazy, because I'd be pulling one of his employees from doing something else for 2-3 hours that would cost them $250...   Haha awesome way to do business and what kind of logic is that?  That's how they charge for their services?  Anyway, my most ridiculous experience to date in terms of people naming truly crazy prices for no good reason.  (That's even after I told him that I have a great idea of how painting, sanding, and filling works, as I do it myself--he was still very defensive and argumentative).  Needless to say, this is the primary reason I try to do everything myself.

Having painting done at a professional autobody shop can be VERY expensive. Professional car paint can run north of $1000 a gallon. In some cases, a complete automotive paint job can run a few thousand dollars. So the materials they'd probably use would be pretty expensive. Then they'd have to do a bunch of surface prep, masking, and priming before the keyboard could be painted. They'd have to use one of their spray guns and take time out of another job. Probably an hour or two of labor mixed in there.

So, that's why I paint cars myself with cheap Home Depot enamel paint. Heck, for your keyboard, you could even rattle can it. Probably would run you about $10 in materials.

So damn scary. I once saw something similar up in Canada behind my house in a marsh-like area. Went to go retrieve a stray tennis ball, bent over to pick it up, and one that looked quite similar to your picture was chilling underneath a leaf. Soooo scared and ran the hell out of there so fast without the ball.

Spent more than on hour scared, trying to figure out what was wrong with my laptop after I cleaned it and reapplied thermal paste. Long story short, I had just put RAM into the incorrect slot. Idiot.

The result isn't anything spectacular either. sensors  keep showing CPU temperatures around 40 degrees, which is way too much IMHO, although I didn't check that stuff before... Yeah, I'm an idiot. Moreover, it seems that the fan produces high-freq noise that I can hear only with my left ear, not the right one. I'm getting deaf. O_o°

Sounds kind of like my last two days..

Trying to sort out my microphone situation to accommodate for and limit the additional keyboard sound, been tweaking the mic angle and all that, moved the cord out of my way while I was at it and bundled it with some other cords under my desk. Tried recording again... crazy fuzzy hissing sibilance noise! Moved everything all over the place, checking connections, checking settings, doing test recording after test recording and nothing seems to help, tried moving the mic and filter into every configuration imaginable.

Two days of frustration later I remember that I moved the cord as well, apparently too close to my battery backup / speakers / cord pile situation. Pulled the mic cord out of that area all together and taped it under my desk: problem solved. :P

Your monitor setup is basically my to do list. I've wanted a monitor stand and backlighting for ages... should really get on that. But of course, I would want to buy a third monitor so I had two matching ones for the stand, then I'd want to have all three plugged in and have to buy/change components to get that to work... it's a slippery slope. ;) Probably just start with the keyboard stuff and some backlighting for now.

Waited home for Verizon fios to come and install fibre optic internetz. Well the guy had me marked down for a direct tv package complete with the joys of a DSL internet line. Canceled the package, and called up my current company optimum high speed cable to switch from 15/5mbps to 50/20 Mbps. Afterwards I had noticed from upgrading my ping had doubled from 13ms to 27ms , asked the lady why this was happening , she replied "oh ping?! Don't worry about that, it is not important" I was ready to give her the whole PC gamer situation about lower Ping, and explain to her that "that Ping" is actually pretty important to me. Realized it's not worth it and she would have no idea what I was talking about... But yay 50/20mbps internetz now :)

they are everywhere, especially in densely populated areas, note the increase in recent advertisements (rosco the bedbug dog) and cleaning products. There have been reports of bed bug outbreaks recently around my town and its made me think twice before staying in local hotels or visiting movie theaters. The problem with new york is the lack of urban sprawl and over population. A common belief is someone has to be very dirty/hoarder/unkempt when in reality these little buggers can be picked up anywhere, fall into your mechboards and multiply like crazy. Im sorry about your situation dude, fingers crossed it isnt to bad of an infestation.

Those that think it is just an expensive blender just don't understand.  We use ours several times a week for the few years.  Recently been making all of our baby food in it.

Something you probably have never had to worry about (I wish I was in Australia right now), falling on ice. It's been raining pretty bad and  the temperature dropped just enough so it froze, covering everything with a coat of ice. Beers + ice = bad time.

Ive got a picture of the stitches but Im not sure how everyone is with "gore". The worst part about this is no gaming and the whole typing at 10 WPM

I went to work for a half day this morning. Got the rest of the day off as a holiday. Then I went up to the local community college which is also a prometric testing center to take the first of three exams for the MCSD certification. I went in and told the receptionist what I was there for and she proceeded to call the proctor. The receptionist then handed me the phone and the proctor informed she was at home across the bay an hour away and wasn't going to make it. So, that was a bust. I went home where I anxiously awaited the package I had overnighted... and waited...and waited and now its 9:00 pm so I'm pretty sure it isn't coming. It was nothing geekerific (just some new sharpening stones), but I was anxious to use them. Also, I installed COD 4 which I've never played (can you tell I'm not much of a gamer) and played for a few hours. Now I'm telling you about it.

Came to school ridiculously tired and nervous, because I knew I was damned, if I had to prove Cook's theorem or something like that. Instead, the professor asked me, what question did I want.

an easier way to get dropbox referrals, is google adwords, they often run "free $100 promotion" and you just run an ad with something like "Sign up on dropbox today and get 500MB additional free storage" I maxed out my referrals in about 3 days with this method, with plenty of credit leftover.

(Also it's not a violation of the TOS)

Not sure if you knew, but those are called Samoas in some regions.  Though they actually have slightly altered recipes, so they do taste different.

For anyone curious, there are two different bakeries that make GS cookies, and I've noticed that some flavours that are supposed to be the same (like Thin Mints) will actually taste different depending on which bakery they came from.

Currently working on eating a box of samoas, we have over 200 boxes of girl scout cookies I couldn't resist.

Lucky! My fiancé went to the Girl Scouts Oregon HQ and they didn't have any cookies at the office... so disappointed

My daughters in girl scouts, she sold quite bit, guess I should have posted in the classifieds haha :D

The caramel delights are where it's at

Not sure if you knew, but those are called Samoas in some regions.  Though they actually have slightly altered recipes, so they do taste different.

For anyone curious, there are two different bakeries that make GS cookies, and I've noticed that some flavours that are supposed to be the same (like Thin Mints) will actually taste different depending on which bakery they came from.

^^ I did not know this!! Thanks for the info. I know depending on which region/troup etc they have slightly different product lists as well.

I've heard about these "Girl Scouts Cookies" and come to the conclusion that I really want some :( Damn Americans hogging them all!

I can already see I'm going to have to ship some of these abroad. I better make sure there is no embargo first.

Pretty sure there is no biscuit embargo in the UK, although whatever you do don't send them to Australia (more for me :D)

Today, I saw a pile of a half million tires.  Too bad nobody will actually care until the pile burns and the toxic smoke will force the evacuation of the surrounding area.  Then everybody will ask, "why didn't we do anything?"   We could have, idiots, but we're so concerned with being friendly to bad businesses that we decided to let the pile sit for a few years.

First day in school this semester. The Information Systems class sounds like fun, mostly because the prof doesn't take it too seriously and admits it's pseudoscience. The other two courses are much more hardcore though... and I spent most of the day watching the Olympics, although I considered boycotting them at first.

Went and destroyed my shoulders at the gym after waking up at 15:00. Since I've been taking supplements I haven't had the aches the day after, so I guess it's going well? Can't see any difference yet but it's only been a few weeks and I'm still trying to sort out the routine.

Had to finally wash the Landcruiser, the amount of dust and dirt that fell off it, I could plant rows of lettuce and harvest it in a few weeks.

Also had to chase and capture two Pitbulls for their monthly wash before applying the advocate medicine to keep the parasites away.  Nothing worse then trying to get Archie into a bath tub for a wash.

Cleaned the drive way with a Karcher and planted some extra shade trees besides the west-easterly side of the house.  Probably will all die before winter.

So far I've switched out my keyboard 3 times. HHKB white -> HHKB black -> FC660C. Trying to keep a low profile on it. No flashy boards :)

Yeah, my new work keyboard has blue/white caps. Not sure if it's going to go down too well in the office. I work for a water company though, so maybe they will look at it like that.

Otherwise I will have to get some black PBTs from somewhere.

I got a haircut and all the cute ladies fawned over it at the salon.  Of course, it should have taken 1.5 hours to do and the bloody thing took 4 hours. 

Also managed to drop almost all of the remaining UV group buy caps and a little package for digi off in the mail.  Good riddance to the UV GB.  I'll be so happy once AlexJP and RabRhee get their correct caps.

No dyeing.  I haven't dyed my hair since high school I think.  If I had a corporate job, I would probably do some dying to emphasize the auburn lowlights and blond highlights in my hair, but I literally work with crazy people.  So the only people I really try and look good for are some of the cute social workers my age.

But yeah, this time it was 4 hours.  I was in hell.  Normally when I go to a salon it only takes 1-2 hours, with 2 hours being on the extreme long end.  It's a teaching salon though, and they took forever on my hair.  I think she spent an hour or two just on the back of the hair.  It looks good, but it was no fun.  At least there were some hot women to admire and converse with.  That made things better.

On the other hand, the Chris Kirkpatric chinstrap goatee you're sporting gives off a pedo vibe. We can change that though.

Seriously though, what do you get done to your hair that it takes 90 minutes normally? How long is it?

Mine usually only takes like 20 minutes tops. But then I have the hair line of a 50 year old at 24.

Post by: nubbinator on Sun, 02 March 2014, 00:46:11
It's a place where students cut your hair, so take a normal haircut (1-1.5 hours for wash, cut, and styling) and multiply that by 2-3 since they're still learning, have to get their teachers to sign off on things from time to time, and may have questions for their teachers.  Normally I'm in and out in under two hours.  No clue what happened this time.

Title: Re: What did you do today?
Post by: nubbinator on Sun, 02 March 2014, 00:51:52
I go from time to time because it's cheap.  $18 and a better haircut than salons I've tried that cost twice as much and much much better than a barber cut or Supercuts or other ****ty chain cut.

Huh. That's pretty good.

I pay like Ł7 for short back and sides, but like I say, I have almost no hair so there isn't much to do with it. I had a number 1 all over for my 4 year army career, so I don't really know what to do with it now I'm out and growing it.

I pay $20 for that (well, a number 2 instead).

It costs $15, but the guys are cool af so I tip them well.

It's a really easy hairstyle to take care of, and it looks good on most guys.

Between yesterday and today my coworkers and I took a 5 day job that we did twice with a previous contractor and did it in 2 days without any night shift support.  Not a fault of the other shift because they still had other stuff they had to get done.  The contractor that we are working for right now didn't realize how much work was actually involved in the task plus they were short 5 guys Sat night.  Ohh well I got 26.5 hours on the clock in 2 days.  We got 12.5 of time and a half and 14 hours of double time.  So I actually get a bit better than a 40 hour check (works out to 46.75 hours worth of straight time) in 2 days.

Just depends where you're currently residing.  Some places are just dead-holes no work or any opportunities hence best to leave that place as soon as possible.  Other places you can find work as soon as you get off the plane and pay for a taxi.

Luck of the draw but always position yourself in some city to get prime jobs easily.  If you've got good experience then you've killed off nearly 80% of your competitors.  You are going into battle when it comes to getting a job -  take no prisoners  8) .

Took a couple hours and organizing hundreds of parts... but it's working now!!! Might be even better than before because of better thermal compound and no dust... we'll see how long it lives... Hopefully it doesn't die with my Dark Souls 2 disc in it...

Yesterday I went through about 2500 sheets of paper (5 reams) making copies, today I'm putting all those into binders, when the boss decides he really wanted twice the number of sets than what he originally asked for  ???

That sounds like a job for machines, not people.

Well I used the copy 'machine' :p

tonight I'm doing network maintenance.

The best option would be to get rid of income tax all together and to to a flat national sales tax.  Benefits would include the filthy rich paying an equal (percentage based on stuff bought), all the illegal aliens would be paying taxes the same as the rest of us, and no need to file an income tax return unless you run your own business. 

Anyway, back on topic.  Worked on my 9 switch matrix test single wait h PCB using both amps and MX switches.

:(  That's always the worst.  One time when I was severely dehydrated they tried to stab me for an IV in the hand but couldn't find the vein.  Ended up poking around at a nerve for a few seconds.  That's no fun at all.

I ended up pulling an all-nighter tonight (last night?), and I went to TBell around 12:30 for dinner, then went back at 8:30 for breakfast.  I feel so accomplished.  And I thought the A.M. Crunchwrap was better than the waffle taco personally, but I thought that neither deserved the negativity that I had heard about them.  It's cheap fast food, what do you expect?

Yeah, I'm fine, thanks for the concern guys.  :)  Thankfully it hit on the passenger side rather than the driver side.  It was some stupid bird, possibly a turkey vulture (?), that flew right in front of me.  I slammed on the brakes but couldn't react fast enough.  :|  And the windshield repair place happened to be open on Saturday and was able to help me that day, so it ended up not being as bad as it could have been (I was travelling, so getting back home would have been interesting).  But it did still get glass in ****ing everything.   :'(

Yeah, I'm fine, thanks for the concern guys.  :)  Thankfully it hit on the passenger side rather than the driver side.  It was some stupid bird, possibly a turkey vulture (?), that flew right in front of me.  I slammed on the brakes but couldn't react fast enough.  :|  And the windshield repair place happened to be open on Saturday and was able to help me that day, so it ended up not being as bad as it could have been (I was travelling, so getting back home would have been interesting).  But it did still get glass in ****ing everything.   :'(
Glad your alright. :D My Grandma hit a deer a year or so back. It jumped out of nowhere and destroyed the entire front of her car. Fortunately she only got some minor bruises, but the damage to the car was ridiculous.

Yeah, I'm really thankful it wasn't a deer.   :-X   This was mostly limited to windshield damage, so it wasn't the worst thing that could happen, by a long shot.

Between last night and this morning I got the firmware working for my single switch pcb test bed.  Now to trouble shoot why the switches don't seem to work.  Shorting pads on the teensy itself and wires connecting from the teensy to the matrix cause numbers to appear on screen but yet nothing from the switches.

Edit:  I think I am going to just order v2.0 of the single switch PCB's and do another round with that on my test bed.  Soldering wires to through hole is a lot easier to get a good joint than a tiny surface pad.  I also ordered a batch of stuff to bolt mod an M.

I can't believe it. I finally found a mechanical at work! A Dell AT101W and what I think is an old Dell Quietkey rubberdome. The AT101W is yellowed but the switches are in good shape. That Quietkey looks like the 101W but has nice rubber domes in it. Was surprised. Now to figure out who owns them so I can ask to take them home. :D

This new office is wild. First I find an AT101W. Today, I found a working Selectric II with an IBM dustcover is just sitting the room where my printers are. It feels *really* nice.

Been a busy pexon today. I've installed a new 3m long worktop in my workshop as a dedicated soldering station. I have been working on my workshop ready for the summer (to cold to work in there in the winter).

 I now have a dedicated space for:-

-soldering
-working on PC stuff
-making PSU cables
-packing and invoicing

each with their own respective, separate worktop

I will be updating with pics of the work bench soon, I'm not amazing when it comes to DIY stuff, but I think I did a pretty good job of it.

I also installed new caps on my Filco:-

Wasn't sure how keen everyone was on fishing :)) I organised it for my buddies bachelors, first time any of us had gone deep sea fishing, a little over 30 nautical miles from the coast. It was an epic haul, between the 6 of us we bought in 12 Long-fin Tuna (between 8 and 15kg) and 6 Yellow fin Tuna (all around 45kg). Took about 20 mins to bring in each yellow fin, they fight so hard and they are so strong it's insane. It was completely exhausting and the weather was sweltering (around 36 degrees Celsius) but a great experience and I highly recommend it.

Leaving early in the morning

That's incredible, atlas! Nice catch! I've only fished small fish from small lakes. I couldn't imagine a trip like that. For me it's more of the relaxing and socializing at the lake with friends and/or family than fishing itself.

I bought a Fenix LD22 flashlight and some DeWalt impact nut drivers. Very uneventful.

For me that's normally the case as well, just like to chill with friends and do some relaxed fishing, normally do carp fishing and have recently been doing some fly fishing, way more chilled. Definitely wouldn't do the deep sea thing every weekend, I am still stiff now and we went out on Saturday :))

I'm not a big fish eater but I do like Tuna so this trip was a bonus from that point of view, been having fish braai's all weekend! (Braai is the South African national pass time we even have an official public holiday called braai day, it's kind of like an American barbecue but we normally have an open fire with a grate over the coals, slabs of meat/fish on their or Boerewors which is an SA sausage, bring some beers to the party and you are having a braai!) This is something I truly believe should catch on around the world, any foreigner who has been to a South African braai will agree  :thumb:

I started my day handling the fallout of a dns outage that completely shut down one of my clients for about 18 hours yesterday. This is the second time it has happened in the past three months, so I was told to set him up somewhere else as he handed me his credit card and left my office. He didnt seem happy. But more importantly,  today I got the call from Target that they had an S5 in for me. 15 minutes later it was in my hands. Pretty excited since my old phone was failing. I've been a long time hater of Samsung's UI but wanted the S5 for the increased availability of accessories and the water resistant features since I spend a lot of time on the water. So far I like it though and I'm letting go of the hate.

Finished up my test bed for the v2.0 single switch PCB's.  Just need to test the LED function now.  I think for that I am just going to jumper wires from my HDD activity LED to a switch.  That way I don't need to mess with SMD resistors.  Still debating on that.  Probably should if I am going to be doing a group buy though

I received a junk Apple Extended Keyboard with orange Alps from ebay, stripped it for key caps and switches, and cleaned them thoroughly. Then I very lightly lubricated the switches with Krytox.

I installed them in a Ducky 1087XM chassis (there are also 3 blue Alps in special places but not the keys I use most, because I don't want the noise) and populated it with a mixture of key caps from the original Ducky (only where the odd stabilizers demanded it), the Apple's great (but goofy-looking) heavy PBTs, and the bottom row (except spacebar) and function row from a Dell AT101W.

This thing is f_cking awesome!

When I no longer need a numpad this will be a great little toy keyboard, and it is both quiet and portable!

Now, if I can realistically modify the stabilizer clips on the long keys (the Ducky wires are much thicker than traditional Alps wires) it will be really sweet.

I reformat a lot as well.
It's a bit annoying having to setup everything and download a gazillion small programs.

I wish windows had a better application synch + appstore like macs do. Much better than having to download everything one by one. 

At least I don't have to enter that many CD keys/logins again since the majority of stuff on my pc is free open source stuff.

Reformatting a lot is nice, although I'm not sure as to how healthy it is for my computer, but at least it frees up a lot of space I don't know where goes to and makes games go faster again.

Usually I save a LOT on my external, and a lot of the time never move it off, and just install from there instead of downloading again.

Yeah, the synch and appstore thing sounds really nice, or at least having a way to monitor things without having to dig through every ****ing folder on a 1tb harddrive just to delete a bunch of little things you don't even know why you downloaded in the first place to regain a bit of space.

Must be reinstall day... did a reconfig on one of my servers. Decided to set it up all anew with storagespaces ReFS... got everything copied over from backup from the network around 5TB. Everything looked good rebooted. Hangs on post. Apparently bios can't deal with non MBR disks :/

(╯°□°）╯︵  █

So to be fair it is an old I94GC-I7 machine with a lowly E4500 but really... the dumb thing is if I pull the hotswaps to disconnect and let it post then the disks work as expected. Don't seem to be any bios updates for the board either. Might give bios hacking more recent sata and etc oroms in a go and see if it fixes it.

Dood! Tell me about it. It's because it's such a small airport. My friend came over during the holidays, and we got to the airport 45 minutes before his flight to LA, and they said that he couldn't go through because all the staff of that airline company had already gone out to the landing strip to board... They hadn't even taken off yet (and not for another 40 minutes or so) and were like less than 100 yards away, and they wouldn't let him go to board... Because of this, he had to book another flight in Orlando, which is a little less than two hours away (which I drove him) for another $800...

I need to build a base for it because it moves around too much right now.  I am just going to find a piece of steel and bolt it to it.

I wouldn't call it 'flimsy', but I would definitely recommend a base.  Basically, if you do not have a base, you have to use two hands to use it.  One hand to hold the vice from moving around, and the other to tighten it.  It is not heavy enough on its own to not walk all over the place when you are trying to tighten it with one hand.

I also noticed that when I was soldering (without a base), if I pressed too hard the vice would slip and move on my desk.  I was doing precision work, so I wanted it to be very solid which is why I built the base tonight.

I was considering just bolting it to a small board and then clamping the board to my desk.  I think that probably would have worked fine as well. 

I am really happy with how this turned out.  Definitely worth the $15 on materials and the 30 minutes to build...

PS - I bought the plate in Home Depot in the rebar, cement and foundation section.  I checked all over the place in Home Depot (cause its close to me) and that was the best option I could come up with...

Pretty much.  Just use countersunk bolts/screws.  You don't want the sides on the hex head digging into that cheap aluminum casting.  I am going to make one from a leftover piece of stainless when I get my keyboard built.

Pulled my old espresso machine out of the cupboard where it has been since August last year when we moved.

I thought it best to run a few cups of plain water through it.

The first three and a half were gray in colour, with a thick soapy scum floating on the surface.

Then the water reservoir (freshly filled, before anyone asks) ran dry.

So I refilled it and continued.

After another two cups, the soapy scum no longer appeared, and the water appeared mostly clear.

It also stopped smelling like, well, I don't really know what it smelled like, but it didn't smell like water, because water is not supposed to smell of anything, right?

I might run another couple of cups through it just to be sure.

The next cup of water was clear, did not smell, and had absolutely no visible scum floating on top.

Wait, no VISIBLE scum?  What if there was invisible scum? :eek:

Let's be positive ...

So I put some coffee in (after washing the coffee container and opening a new bag of ground coffee - another story - my coffee grinder died a long time ago so I just use pre-ground beans) and started it up.

All went well, and I was rewarded with a cup of coffee, with nice crema on top.

It tasted as I recall - somewhat bitter with a few grains of coffee floating around.

Quite nice actually :)

Went to a PTA meeting before work.  My first PTA meeting.  Kind of surreal, as I kept trying to reconcile the experience with everything I'd seen on TV shows.   ;D
Were you bored out of your mind?

It was interesting.  Kind of like a peek behind the curtain; we get the emails from the PTA throughout the year, this was a chance to see how programs/activities get scheduled and how the budget gets allocated.  It's close to the end of the year, so not a lot on the agenda apart from summer school and some proposed camps.

If you have kids in school, I'd recommend attending a meeting or two.  If nothing else, it helps to remind the PTA that there are a lot of parents they represent.

I saw an owl on the way home.

It was sitting on a street sign looking the other way.

Then it took off and I panicked, but it was only chasing a flying insect, and landed back on the street sign afterwards.

I took some pictures, but it was already dark and the flash lit up the street sign and reflected the crap out of anything else in the picture.

The above happened on Tuesday.

Wednesday night I saw what might have been the same owl perched on the same street sign looking at the same tree.

It flew off again, but didn't fly back this time.

Last night (Thursday) I saw it again, but time time it was perched on the power line crossing the road above the street sign.  Looking around I saw a second one on another nearby power line.

Started to convert my music collection to 320kb/s MP3s, because my current setup and ears are too good for 128kb/s MP3 or worse 32kb/s WMA from times, when I didn't have enough HDD capacity and bandwidth. Good news, I'm enjoying some albums once again. Bad news, other albums were awfully mastered in the first place (like horrible bass on the Wishsides collection by Nightwish).

Oooof.  That's just brutal.  :P  I've got a song that's probably around 32kbps because it was so long that it had to be ****ty to keep the file size reasonable.  It's quite unfortunate...

Glad to hear you're upgrading though, the jump to 320 is fairly significant.   :thumb:

Don't get me wrong, I love FLAC and use it all the time, but in truth it's very difficult to tell the difference between FLAC and 320.  I use it more for archiving purposes than a legitimate sound quality purpose.

That said, if you've ABXed FLAC and 320 and can tell the difference with significant results then more power to ya.   :thumb:

Oooh, great point actually.  At the time I was running into HD280 Pros, which might not have given the clarity needed to tell the difference.  I shall have to try it again with the HE 400s and see if that shows a difference.  Consider this my "What will you do tomorrow" post.  :)

Actually, if you can use only something like laptop built-in speakers or an old $10 headset, 32kb/s WMA is barely distinguishable from 128 kb/s MP3—and the file size is smaller by a huge margin. I made these in times, when I had only a 40GB HDD... now, my whole collection takes like 80 GB of space in the middle of conversion to 320kb/s MP3.

Speaking of that, I'd have to get a new storage, if I wanted to go lossless, but the difference in music enjoyment would be negligible; certain aspects of modern mastering are often a much bigger issue that can't be easily fixed.

If I wanted to go full audiophile, I'd start a vinyl collection. I'll probably raid that great local thrift store with rare rock LPs anyway.

I took some pictures, but it was already dark and the flash lit up the street sign and reflected the crap out of anything else in the picture.

The above happened on Tuesday.

Wednesday night I saw what might have been the same owl perched on the same street sign looking at the same tree.

It flew off again, but didn't fly back this time.

Last night (Thursday) I saw it again, but time time it was perched on the power line crossing the road above the street sign.  Looking around I saw a second one on another nearby power line.

I bought a topre before I had tried it. My first reaction was that I didn't like it. I had to use though because I had sold my work mech. After working on it for a few months I am liking it more and more. I now enjoy both my MX and my topre.  That was my experience anyway.

I saw an owl on the way home.

It was sitting on a street sign looking the other way.

Then it took off and I panicked, but it was only chasing a flying insect, and landed back on the street sign afterwards.

I took some pictures, but it was already dark and the flash lit up the street sign and reflected the crap out of anything else in the picture.

The above happened on Tuesday.

Wednesday night I saw what might have been the same owl perched on the same street sign looking at the same tree.

It flew off again, but didn't fly back this time.

Last night (Thursday) I saw it again, but time time it was perched on the power line crossing the road above the street sign.  Looking around I saw a second one on another nearby power line.

Saw one owl last night.

Sitting on the power line above the road, watching the same tree.

Then it flew off, circled the tree, and came back to the wire.

Probably hunting.

Nope.  Wasn't 12 hours of continuous welding though.  There was other fab work involved with the piece I was beefing up.  Since a mask with supplied/filtered air isn't required for welding except in very enclosed confined spaces, the contractors won't supply them.

Welding isn't anything compared to air arc, or arc gouging.

That was a quick and dirty version.  I call it egg mess.  But when I make it I usually do it a bit different.  First I cook the sausage, then cook the hashbrowns in the grease from the sausage for flavor integration, then add onion, green pepper to sautee down a bit.  Then when all that is down I will add it to the eggs, which will have cheese and a bit of milk.  Sometimes if I am just cooking it for me and some friends (wife isn't eating) I will throw in some black and green olives.

I have done arc welding, but never tried mig and tig. It's been 20 years since I have done any welding. That makes me seem old, but I was welding very young. We lived on a self sufficient farm in remote canada, so we learned many things very young.
Title: Re: What did you do today?
Post by: Melvang on Tue, 27 May 2014, 07:41:06
I could probably certify for 3/8" unlimited for arc welding but my overheads still need a little work.  I do suck at MIG but really like TIG though I very rarely do it at work.

Title: Re: What did you do today?
Post by: Melvang on Tue, 27 May 2014, 07:47:55
Yeah MIG is very temperamental.  Welder settings need to be just right.  Not like stick where if you are close, most times you can just adjust your speed and be alright.  Hell if a gust of wind comes up when MIG welding it will blow you shield gas away and, BAM, you get to bring out the bad spot.  On the flip side I have done stick welding outside in 35+ mph winds with no issues.

Saw an owl again last night.  Or two.  Or maybe three, except it might have been two.

You see, one was sitting on a power line above the road, and another on a power line above the footpath.

The one above the footpath flew off towards, and then behind, the tree, and didn't seem to come out again.

But it might have come out from the other side of the tree that I couldn't see from my position.

As I walked on, I saw the third (or possibly still the second) own sitting on the power line above the footpath a bit further down the street.

Photos still don't turn out very well - it is way too dark, and the owls are too high for a flash to illuminate.

Well, the wife wanted me to pick up another USB thumb drive, well I ended up getting 3 different sizes of Channel Locks for work, 2 boxes of Cheese Its (smoked provolone, and baby swiss), can of smoked oysters, box of garlic club crackers, and a brick of cheese.

The magnets in that head pulley were damn strong.  It pulled my tape measure off my pocket several times, pulled a wrench out of my pocket (none of the wrench was sticking out).  But out of the 4300 pounds for the entire deal (pulley, shaft, and bearings) 600 was in the bearings, and ~500 was in the shaft, so roughly 3200 was in the pulley itself and the housing for it all was cast aluminum so I am guessing there is probably 2000 pounds of magnets in this thing.  And people worry about magnets in money clips killing debit/credit cards.

As the title says...
Apart from your daily routine (showering, eating, working, whatever) what have you done?


I start:

After long time I decided to buy some music CDs again, but after listening through em I remembered why I stopped buying CDs back then. Half of the content was clipped and the majority of the other half had some other defects like pops, clicks or stream corruptions, there was even some weird short high frequency pulse in continuous pattern in one track which under closer inspection (checking the waveform) looked like some sort of audio watermarking. Well, long story short... As I really like the music and don't wanna see my money wasted, I spend today and yesterday manually fixing the waveforms  :))

After work Monday, I had the pleasure of getting to a golf course. Unfortunately before our group had a chance to tee off at the first tee, the bottom fell out. Greens were soaked, course conditions super wet so the club closed down the course. This was upsetting at the time but since this is Florida, we drove 10 miles north to another course which was COMPLETELY DRY and got full round in. The best part is the second club we tried gave our group the 'junior walking rate for 9 holes' which was a whopping $6.95.

Ultimately we all ended up with a rain check to play again on the first course and then to be able to play a full round for 7 bucks!! Glorious

Busted.

Tried everything and nothing makes sense. The driver vents blow normal air and the passenger side blower slightly cold air.

Just got it out of the shop and they thought it had been fixed.

Get home and A/C isn't working.

Today I got myself setup to start working on my Sprit 60% board.  Got my panavise head setup and made sure everything is going to work.

Pretty happy with this setup, it looks like it is going to work great.  Thanks Melvang for the rail...  :)

And of course, some pictures...

Glad you like it.  I do have to apologize for the square stock not being perfectly square to the round stock.  I did the machine work by hand using a 4" grinder in my garage along with drilling the hole for the stud by hand as well.  If you want to change out the square stock just drill a 1/4" hole for mounting and DO NOT remove the stud.  I glued it in with permanent strength lock tite.  Just take the nut off.

Once the nut is tightened down, no one is the wiser. It functions perfectly, that's all I care about. :). Thx again.

You wanna talk about playing video games for ridiculously long sessions, try playing this game (http://youtu.be/CMzMsktgu0Q?t=14s) with YoungMichael88 and Halverson for a solid 10 hours straight (pulled an all-nighter for it, stayed up about 36-40 hours).  It might not be as long as you guys are talking about but I guarantee it's just as stupid.  The entire mini game takes about a minute to complete once.

Keycap puller.  The loop on the right side is ring bolt hitching.  Tied that using 6 strands of the same stuff as a core.  It runs the entire length and that is the core for the double moku hitching to tie it all together.  The wires will be coming out of the right side.  I just need to learn a new knot to terminate the ends of the right bolt hitching from the beginning.  This is mostly to help with finishing it nice and clean.

Here is a link to where I learned about these hitchings.  http://www.frayedknotarts.com/tutorials/coxcombing/coxcombing.html

I clearly know what's up.  First thing I did was setup Mario Kart 8 and forget about the pile of boxes behind me.

Ah, the joy of an empty room - a blank slate into which you can artfully arrange your belongings into a tidy and efficient workspace.

Last time I tried to do that (end of last year) I ended up very quickly with at least as much mess as I had at the old house, except that I have lost a few things.

It's a good feeling!  And thankfully in this case I'm going from living in a 12'x12' room to a 3 bedroom duplex (shared with one other person) with a huge basement, so I will definitely have less clutter than ever before.  :D

Next challenge: unpack and settle in.

Today I had to remove the plasti dip from the face plate of my Synology NAS that has to be returned for RMA service.

I read that the WD40 dissolves plasti dip but I didn't believe it until I tried it.  While it dissolves the plasti dip even in the tight nooks and crannies, you'll still have to clean up all the WD40 and dissolved plasti dip.  This is so much easier than picking at the corners with a rag, toothpick, and/or toothbrush.

I think I'll put my listening room in the basement.   :)    and there is a garage, so that's nice too, especially in winter.

Today I had an exciting first venture into car repair. I repaired my TCU... now the automatic shifting on the transmission works again! Huzzah! I will tell you... working with that PCB was a severe mother****er. First time working on a multilayer pcb. Components soldered on both sides with solder that took the heat of the sun to melt. I had to turn my soldering station to 900 and it was still not easy took a while to heat it up. Then of course I couldn't suck it up with my lame solder sucker so I had to use wiggle method on 2 blown capacitors leaking crap all over and 3 fried resistors that were black and flaky. FUN TIMES!

Congrats!  That sounds like one helluva repair.  :P  Was purchasing a new PCB too expensive?  Last time one of my PCBs  in my truck (windshield wipers) crapped out I just bought a new one for 15 bucks.  Guessing the TCU board is a bit more?   ;)

while she was shopping, i checked air tickets and decided we won't go to sweden on june holidays, spent a lot of time researching on what tropical country to go on january holidays, paid insanely high $45 bills, bought some fresh beer and catalonian wine, lubed the bicycle chain, fixed recessed lighting in the kitchen, sharpened all the kitchen knives, cleaned drains and fixed door hinges for bathroom and toilet doors.

also 15 minutes ago saturn came back to me.

As you probably know, the Internet is where men are men, women are also men and children are FBI agents. Today, I talked some random kid at another forum into buying a mechanical or vintage keyboard. He wanted to try some switches then and I offered I'd meet him and show him some of my keyboards. The kid eventually claimed he was an obese 12-year-old schoolboy. Oh Gaben... I'm in trouble.

nice work on converting someone to mechs but the meeting IRL part.. :))

Tangentially.  We talked about art since we went to an art walk and my casting came up.  She thought Dolly was cute and when I said it was kind of nerdy because it was for keyboards, she said who cares as long as you enjoy it.

Stretched some canvases to do some paintings. Nice big ones... 68cm X 153cm. I made the stretcher frames myself too. It had been a long time since I did this myself, I had forgotten how tricky it can be to get them nice and tight by I got there in the end.

The more you look the better you get at quickly noticing things you really don't like, or thing you really do like.

mowed the lawn after almost a month of just letting it grow.  i had spread some seed out in hopes that the bare spots would fill in.  the thinner areas did get a nice boost overall.

You get used to the rain fairly quickly and it really isn't that bad, also our summers have been quite nice in the past few years (yay climate change). We have mountains here too!

If indeed it was ever posted. Warning: Ponies. Also techno.

You could also see Derpy here, but in my mind its the wrong song.

This is a much better place to put that song. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=407FDgVcqc4)

Went and watched Edge of Tomorrow or whatever it's called. 7/10.

Oh hey I did that too. Really disliked the ending but the rest was ok.

Honestly the movie wasn't what I expected at first but after the 1/2 half it just became one of "those" movies.

Emily blunt looked pretty good so at least there's that...

A lot of removalist web sites have a checklist for moving house.  Even if you are not paying for their service, you can usually download the checklist anyway.

Something like this: http://www.fragileremovals.com.au/moving-house/

But I have seen more comprehensive ones too.

Ever tried Stepmania on a mechanical board? Apple keyboards are great for that game as almost no key travel seems to be the most effective. Other than that he must have no sensitivity in his fingers from all that bottoming out anymore and can't feel the difference anymore.

Fair enough.  However, I checked with the local dog walker what his prices were to walk my dog(s).  He charges $20 for 30 minutes and he walks 10 dogs at a time.  I am in the wrong business.  He is making $400/hour...   :eek:

i remember that you told you went to a mental hospital and met a pretty girl who worked there. you wanted to ask her out. the question was about if it is that girl.

but ok, it is nice to hear that you have a normal, cool person in your couple. or whatever your message was.

It's pretty intense at times. Today we had a cat in that had been attacked by a bunch of dogs. But we also had a baby chipmunk.

It's one of two paths I'm considering going forward with in school. The other is physics professor :P

Well not too terrible, $300 for a full set of 4 tires installed. It's just annoying since I am actually trying to sell that car and really didn't want to put one more cent into it. But, one tire was starting to split so it would be unsafe. I suppose I didn't really NEED to replace all 4 tires, but I hate it when things like that don't match. If I hadn't also bought a bunch of new shoes and clothes as well... LOL, its really the combination of those things ending up in too much money spent. Besides I have way more keyboard and keycap than I could possibly need right now anyway. It's a good excuse to push myself to sell some.

He is a high schooler.  I hate to admit it, but I did find time like that in college...on rare occasion.  I was one of those people who had a full schedule, extracurriculars, was in the honor's program, had a campus job, and, somehow, still had time to do stuff like that sometimes.

The best was when my roomie and I got blasted and played Army of Two.  Terrible game, but so much fun with a friend when you're drunk.

Today I was forced to switch over to Chrome because Aurora decided to completely crap out on me after the last update, causing crashes every time it was opened and randomly deleting bits of my profile data. Great job Firefox Team!

Still not fully used to Chrome :(

Perhaps give PaleMoon a chance...
It's basically a less crappy version of FF, also has a 64bit and portable version, I like it!

I got the Blue Reflex Mica Mazda3 i Touring 5 Door with the moon roof package and automatic transmission.  I'll try to get pics up of the car later.  I ended up with the moon roof since the car was all of $200 more with the moon roof than without it at another dealership and we got an additional free oil change and full tank of gas thrown in on top.  Apparently between my dad and myself, we drive a hard bargain.  It's still a lot of money and was hard to put the chunk down I did, but I'm happy.

It's a fun car to drive since it handles well and has a comfortable ride.

Yes, I can't wait to waste time flying in circles in my favorite city Orgrimmar. Totally going to be worth the money.

For real though, people always complain that I'm alt-tabbed - I'll probably post even more know.

I got convinced to re-subscribe to World of Warcraft.

It was nice knowing you...
Yes, I can't wait to waste time flying in circles in my favorite city Orgrimmar. Totally going to be worth the money.

For real though, people always complain that I'm alt-tabbed - I'll probably post even more know.

You should do something new this time around..

Like speak out-loud your thoughts while playing the game...  and make video....  and put on youtube so people can watch you play....

Drove an hour to do some computer based training for a different plant I am going to be working in, only to find out their computer lab has 2+ inches of water.

Damn, computers and water don't mix very well.  That probably did not work out well for them.  Haha...

Computers didn't get water damage.  Just water on the floor from the heavy rains we have been having here in Iowa.

Thats good.  :)  Sorry you drove all that way for nothing.  I am guessing the class was canceled.  Or did they just give you rubber boots?  :P
.

They got it dried out.  Got my class done.

I hit a kangaroo once... In terms of damage to the car I came off really lucky. It cracked up the front bumper and took of a bit of trim but that was it. Could have been much worse. Still. It's scary spinning down a highway at 100km/hr (at point of impact) with a kangaroo under your car.

The kangaroo wasn't so lucky.

Oh and in keeping on topic I worked 8 hours and then drove for 2 and a half hours today.

Congrats sir.

Come to Beloeil/Mont-St-Hilaire!


Seriously, I have been living on the south shore of Montreal when i was young and it was nice, but I moved to Beloeil to get closer to my job and because the price of houses is just crazy and I must admit that living 10 minutes away from a small mountain is super nice. Got my pass to go walk there with the family whenever we want and I am sad we don't go more often. And it's a super nice place to raise a family!


And they are building lots of new houses kuf kuf ...  ;D

Ya mont-st-hilaire is fun. I did an elective summer course there when I was at McGill. "Canadian Flora", it was such an easy course. We basically lived up there for 2 weeks and went on hikes every day and identified plants. I got blitzed every day of that course and still aced it. Haha. Guess growing up in the bush has some perks. :). It was a great couple weeks though and I really enjoyed being outside so much.

When I say mountains, I mean more like out west where I grew up. Where it takes you at least a day to get to the top and you have to camp on the mountain if you plan to go to the top.

There is something very humbling and peaceful about being in mountains that can kill you if you are not careful.

Bought tons of biking gear that was in dire need of replacement (spare tires, bidons, plates for under my SPD-shoes, etc.). Took the bike for a little spin to check how my new tires grip on the road. Watched the games (World Cup France - Germany).

Nice choice.  Really liking the styling of the new Mazdas.  The flat front with the swooping fenders looks sharp.  Only thing I don't like is the placement of the front plate right in the middle of the grill - probably the first thing I would change would be to relocate it lower.

Met the female nymphomaniac friend and wannabe girlfriend. Yes, I friendzoned her. No, we didn't have sex. We went to the Pushkin museum to look at the splendid paintings by Picasso, Matisse, Van Gogh and numerous others. Then we had a tasty dinner in a Turkish cafe.

I don't know what baller means. Strangely, Pushkin museum has nothing to do with Pushkin himself, it is just two buildings holding a lot of art.

Headed to Seattle tomorrow. I've never been so it should be fun  :)

If you like beer, check out The Pine Box, Stumbling Monk, Hopvine, and Brouwer's Cafe.  And if you see a bottle of Iron Horse Brewing Quilter's Irish Death, don't even think twice, just buy it.

I would if I was of age--not quite there yet  :))

Whoa.  Would not have guessed this.   :))   I've always imagined you as a 30 year old, gun-totin' Montanan.  So I guess the 30 year old part is the only part I got wrong.

Figured out the three brand new bearings that my partner and I screwed up at work ($2500+ each) is probably the cheaper of the two major fixes.  Turns out both ends of all four shafts have to be remachined.

Today I came to the conclusion that my F122 is too wide to use at job since I use the mouse too much and it starts to put too much stress on my back because I am not in a good position. So I decided to take the time to put a Soarer in one of my XT. And for this one I wanted to do it all internal. So I loaded the Soarer on my promicro, cut some female-female DuPont cable so that I could solder 1 end directly on my promicro. Soldered it, put it in the XT, tested it, all was working and I was super happy. So then I put some hot glue to fix it, closed it and tested it and BANG it was not working. So I open it up again and see that one cable has broken where it had been stripped and soldered.

So I came to the conclusion that I should not have done it this way ... sniff

Lesson learned. I ordered some female-male DuPont cable. Now time to wait ... grrrrr!

I'm mostly just toying with you.  :P  I understand that you can make it work to not have a car.  I'm just so used to having one I'm not ready to give it up.  I do too much camping and other road trip type things that it's hard for me to imagine being confined to a city.   :p

I used to do so much driving when I was a field photographer. I think that really burned me out on roadtrips. They were always doing things like having me drive from like Chicago to Topeka (or equivalent distance from random small town to random small town) overnight and crap for back to back assignments. Mostly I wish US had a good rail system. I actually like trains and generally enjoy traveling that way in Europe. If it weren't for some of the people even bus is preferable to driving myself since I can just zone out and not have to worry about anything really.
Otherwise, I don't really dig being in the country much or doing naturey things.

Today I played golf. Was fun except that mid game my bogey broke (the part where the 2 wheels are stuck to the frame lost 2 rivets and they became 2 distinct part which is bad). So a partner had to drag my 2 wheels and I had to use a 1 wheel bogey.

At least I managed to repair it (well it's not fully tested yet but should be strong). I managed to drill the holes where the rivet were and put a bolt and a nut instead and hot glue so the nut does not come loose. Broke a drill bit in the process, nothing bad. This thing better stay strong forever now!

I'm not so sure that being obsessed with oneself is an Unreasonable Perspective..

Because  no matter who or what instagated a chain of thought.. One can only process that based on his own interpretation..

So no matter what information enters the person,  it HAS TO go through the primary filters which align that incoming knowledge with respect to self preservation, self advancement, and destruction of opposition..

So... that is to say.. Everyone is 100% selfish 100% of the time, whether or not what he does benefits others..


In that way.. Ripster is no different than anyone else, only that his means of communication may be brash..

Sifo,, I didn't insinuate either.. hope ur not mad..

a brief intro: i live in the center of saint petersburg, a touristy place.

[attachimg=1]

the major attraction here is bascule bridges:

[attachimg=2]

when they move (around 1-1:30 am), a large crowd gathers on both sides of the river and also a lot of boats move along to let tourists see the bridges moving from below:

[attachimg=3]

teh missus has never seen this, so we went to the event today. there were hundreds of people on the embankment and hundreds of boats on the river. i stood behind her when she was watching the Liteyniy bridge raising:

[attachimg=4]

when it was about to be fully raised, i took the ring box out of my pocket, opened it and stood on my knee. half a minute after she turned to me to say how spectacular the bridge is, saw me saying "will you marry me?" and shouted "oh my God, yes!". that was the first time in my life when a hundred of people applauded to me!

when it was about to be fully raised, i took the ring box out of my pocket, opened it and stood on my knee. half a minute after she turned to me to say how spectacular the bridge is, saw me saying "will you marry me?" and shouted "oh my God, yes!". that was the first time in my life when a hundred of people applauded to me!

That's awesome iri, all the best for your future nuptials!

I did a 10 hour shift doing some dock work and then went to grid iron practice, had my first accidental collision on a receiver and busted him up pretty good :(

booked our marriage.

wondered why can't we have gay marriage if our word for a marriage means "a defect" anyways.

also took this picture in the inner city:

a brief intro: i live in the center of saint petersburg, a touristy place.

the major attraction here is bascule bridges:

when they move (around 1-1:30 am), a large crowd gathers on both sides of the river and also a lot of boats move along to let tourists see the bridges moving from below:

It was pretty good, but most of the menu consisted of Korean dishes put in a tortilla... not really a big deal. It is kind of cool for something on the go as few things beat the portability of a burrito. I heard they people that run that place are planning on opening up a real ramen joint so I am kind of excited about that. I'm pretty sure it will be the first one here.
The only place that has any straight up Korean food is this tiny walk up lunch place downtown that does bibimbap or bulgogi. It's more like fast food style but still fairly authentic.
We also have a Chinese pizza place. Crab Rangoon pizza is the bomb.

Nice.  Ya there is a shop just down the road from my work that is owned by a Korean family.  They have a couple more ladies working in an open kitchen and they basically serve food out of the back of the shop.  I love it, such good food and it is very realistically priced.  The bibimbap and the barbeque chicken are a couple of my favorites.  They do other great dishes as well, but those are tried and true...

Finally went grocery shopping for the first time on my bike. I learned I definitely need to go more often and get less things at a time or I need to practice riding a lot more with some load in a backpack. I even limited myself to what I can carry in the handbasket with one hand. I also made it up the hill today for the first time instead of having to get off and walk the bike up. Now I just need to keep working into shape so it doesn't feel like my chest is going to explode afterwards. :))

Keep at it. Having heavy stuff with you definitely throws of your balance off quite a bit. You'll pick it up pretty quickly though.

The left mouse button on my M570 started acting up -- it would register a single click as a double-click and often not register a click at all despite hearing the audible click of the switch actuating.

Anyway, I swapped out the microswitches in the left and right mouse buttons with some harvested from an old mouse and everything is A-OK. :thumb:

The only real difference is the stems.  RealForce will only accept Topre keycaps, which you can't buy any more.  Novatouch will only accept MX keycaps, of which there is a veritable plethora.

There are hopes that someone will start making RealForce keycap sets again.  And maybe HHKB sets.  Sigh.  Maybe.

Or that Novatouch stems can be transplanted into RealForce body.  That would be neat :)

That was definitely a big reason as to why I canceled my pre-order. What tipped the scale was what mkawa said about how the Novatouch felt similar to his 55g 10AE. I really don't like the idea of having two of the same switch type since I just started this wonderful hobby, and his comment eased my mind.

That is a little more bad ass than my little 1/4 steel base plate. I put rubber bumpers on the bottom of my base plate and it is super solid on my desk. It is a great little tool.

From everything I've seen, you'll be able to transplant the slider housings from the Novatouch to the Ralforce plate. They just pop out and are the exact same size as the Realforce slider housings. If you wanted to transplant the sliders from the Novatouch to the HHKB, it would just require drilling 2 small holes in the sides of the top case where the larger than 1 unit sliders would go. I fully intend to transplant into both an HHKB and RF at some point.

That'll be on the list!   :thumb:   Also when you say lube station, do you mean you lube with the switches still soldered in?  (totally acceptable, not questioning that, but...)  I might need to lube some switches that aren't yet soldered, and I'm not sure the best way to do that.  Or do you have some gadget that helps with that too?  I'm aware that at some point there were lubing stations made, but I haven't seen one anytime recently.

You can get a better idea of my setup in my build log (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=58969.msg1349714#msg1349714).

Basically, my lube station consists of a panavise, melvang's pcb rail with pcb arms, a TKL universal stainless steel plate (with cutouts) and all my lube goodies.  I clip all my switches into the plate held by my panavice and get to work.

Couple pics...

Put a carrot cake in the oven and got the first half of the frosting made.  I have started going to a local museum that some local vets go to for a weekly meet up consisting mostly of drinking coffee and telling lies (just stories both in and out of the service) so this week I am taking a carrot cake in.  All made from scratch with a two part from scratch non cream cheese frosting.  Cream cheese frosting in my eyes is the rubberdome of the frosting world with store bought frostings as something along the lines of the water proof roll up keyboard.

My daughter had a "tomato sauce explosion" in the immediate vicinity of her keyboard a while back.

It is a membrane keyboard, but as far as membrane keyboards go it is a pretty nice one.  Even after I don't know how many years it is still as crisp as.

It is a Digital RT3356T winkeyless keyboard in two tone beige.

I spent the last couple of hours disassembling it and cleaning it.

The plate had a layer of dried tomato sauce in the lower left corner, the keycaps had all sorts of gunk over them, and there was a thick layer of dust and hairs between the keys.

I didn't bother going quite as far as disassembling the membrane, as the keyboard basically worked (apart from quite a few gummy keys).

But the keycaps were cleaned in denture tablets and then scrubbed with a nail brush, the case upper was scrubbed with a scourer in the kitchen sink, and it has come up pretty clean.

The various parts are still drying - to be reassembled some time next week.

Decided exactly which mill I will be purchasing this fall/early winter.  I am going to get a Sherline 2000 with factory equipped DRO.  CNC may be in the future but not at this time.  I want to get some experience with machining before I step into the world of CNC.  I don't want to be breaking $40 endmills because I forgot a couple lines of code for a toolpath to clear clamps/vise/the part itself.

Unfortunately the sink does not have shutoffs, so I will have to turn off water to the whole house tomorrow and cap those pipes in order to remove the sink and that counter.

:'( Oh well... it's seen much use over the two or so years... I guess I can use it for just novelty caps that don't require much force. I have my Filco keycap puller for the the tighter mods.

Ah this takes me back! I was in a Death/Stoner Metal band back in my younger days, haven't been on stage in like 4 years and I still miss it.

I had a great day today, went for an interview for an Android developer position at a great company. Best interview I've ever done - no HR people, just the three lead devs and they were all super relaxed so it went great. I'll be super happy if I score the job, I've been busting my balls learning Java for the last 18 months so it will be nice to secure a position.

Time to try and install Windows on a PC I can't see the BBS boot menu or bios screens on. Those screens only display if you have exactly 1080p native resolution display... which I don't have. Can't use other GPU either since only pci-e slot has pci-e ssd for boot drive. This should be really fun. :)) So far I've only had a 50% success rate to install on this PC without borrowing someone display.

Ended in failure :(
I wonder why anyone thought it was a good idea to have uefi that only works on 1 resolution.

Not the best typing experience but this keyboard should have shipped with all of the surface versions. The cardboard attached keyboard is terrible

It's a 3x 4TB with seagate st4000dm drives using storagespaces. Evidently storagespaces parity is dead slow without journaling ssd. Sadly I don't have any more sata ports to add them right now.

I've never had the pleasure of using storagespaces. Is that just JBOD with windows managing the parity?
Title: Re: What did you do today?
Post by: IvanIvanovich on Thu, 21 August 2014, 10:28:44
It's more like raid with 2 data disk and 1 parity disk, or a 3+2 if you would rather... and there is the option to add a journaling ssd and/or ssd writeback cache. You also can set it up in mirror or with no resiliency like jbod. It's also the only official supported way to use refs on Windows 8.x. When it works right it's not too bad. My problem stems from having to reinstall my OS after the ssd failed and the new install absolutely refusing to import the existing storage space. Which is pretty annoying since one of the benefits it's supposed to have is easy to move disks from instal to instal or even to different hardware entirely which can be problematic with hardware raid.

Just got a call back about a Android developer position I interviewed for last week and I got the job. So damn happy right now, best thing that's happened to me in the longest damn time!

Congrats, man!!!  That's awesome news!!  :D  I want to bake you a celebratory cake, but alas, Australia.
Hahaha I was just joking with my mate about that, I don't drink anymore so he said the only other way to celebrate is with a cake!

Can't wait to start, looks like such an awesome place to work. Casual clothes every day and really friendly people. And to make things even better all the upper management and HR are located in the US so us developers are free to do our work without interference.

10.3 is the bomb - This OS and experience is what should have shipped with these devices in the first place. Not sure what direction blackberry was taking the past few years but  OS versions pre 10.3 to me were archaic.

Installing the leaks has become extremely easy though. Normally thesy are distributed via "autoloaders".  Double-click and wait!

As you know, these are not official releases and carry no support. Leaks may or may not contain full functionality for your device such as recording video for example -- usually in the MAY NOT category.

Make backups.... and try it out then revert back if you want. I get mah leeks from crack berry dizzot com forums

The last air show I went to a guy didn't pull up in time and was killed. Right after it happened the announcer got on the speakers telling people to go check out the concession stands and grab a cold drink. Left a bad taste in my mouth (not the drink, the announcer's attitude.) :(

That is actually exactly what they are supposed to do.  Take the attention away from the accident and let the proper crews do what they need to do.

Went to Best Buy to pick up a galaxy tab. After she got the box, I asked her if they had any USB OTG cables so I could hook up my 660M. She comes back, no cable, but instead with a bunch of bluetooth scissor switch keyboards. Part of me wanted to explain how unacceptable these POS's were, but restrained and simply said "No thanks, I have a few of my own"

In my computer science class I used linux for the first time navigating with terminal to compile code. Was not fun I dont understand the appeal of linux and its freeware. We don't care about freeware stallman. Just give me something that werks.

I got into an argument with a coworker who wants to change an integral part of the component naming system because it suits him to do so. Let's just ignore the fact that to do so will make me take five times as long as it should because I have to manually renumber the items after inserting them into the drawing...

-What a tool...

This is twice that you've agreed with me. I like this new you.

-You're still not funny.

Screw you, head-me! That's not what your momma said last night.

I'm fairly sure you can develop code in a linux environment even if it's meant to be run in a windows environment. C is C, for example, no matter where you write it. Only testers would need to use it in a native environment.

Linux is hard to use when you first start, particularly if you've used windows all your life. Personally, once I got used to it, I found it was more powerful and customizable than any version of Windows I've ever used (most of them from 98 to 8.1). A lot of the command line applications are very robust as well. The only thing is that they're so different from what you're used to. I find now that I quite dislike windows because of how foreign its excuse for a CLI is to me, despite the fact that it was my primary operating system for basically my whole life.

Today I put up some academic bulletin boards for the students that are moving into my building this weekend.

trust me

you better learn linux

you might hate it now but you'll thank yourself in a few years

and if you really hate it just dualboot

but trust me, you need linux

and user 18 is right, you can develop for windows in a linux environment

Had to reinstall windows 8 due to a bug (some sort of watchdog timeout error.  Nothing would let me reboot.  Windows automatic diagnostic tool before getting to windows couldn't fix the issue, using a restore point didn't fix it, wouldn't reboot in safe mode.  Just said screw it and reinstalled.

I mean using a lightweight distro (#!) and adding only what is necessary for the job I want to do. I get a faster system with a longer lasting battery, which to me is a win/win.

botnets? who mentioned botnets?

Today I played with my unraid server to try and get it to boot off of an internal USB header consistently. No luck so far.

Had just finished a portion of a quest in WoW and got an odd sound effect that I have had before on rare occasion and windows crashed.  The rest is history.  Now the other two drives aren't visible in BIOS nor windows.  They were working fine before and I pulled them before the windows re install.

Yeah, who knows.  At least I had WoW on a different hard drive so I don't have to re install that.  Its about a 20Gb download.  Though I can usually hover at around 2Gb download.

I just took 4 after hours calls that each lasted about 5 minutes, one a little closer to 10, that I get comped 1.5 hours each for.  They all came in in the course of two hours or so.

Sometimes my job sucks, but these after hours calls are a massive perk if you ask me.  An hour of pay for 5 minutes of work.

My work desk has been annoying me for the longest time. Hopefully today, that will be no more!!

The desk would squeal and squeek when doing tasks such as erasing lines from a piece of paper. The noise was driving me bananas. The screws on this desk like to work themselves out and the metal on metal contact creates this noise. So far I've taken 8 screws/bolts and wrapped them at least once around with paper and put them back into place. I will do more if I have to!!

I am actively looking for work as a programmer.

Yesterday, I handed in my solution for a programming test for a C++ shop. Moderate difficulty. Aced it.

Today, I went to a job interview at a company that uses APL.
"We don't expect you to know APL before you start, we will teach you. Here are the basics of APL: ...."
Then I got three small string operations to write, and two hours to do it in. The assignment would have been childsplay in C, Python or Ruby.... but in APL ... not so much.
I eventually solved the last task right when the time was up, and only after I had got some help.
... And the total code in APL is shorter than this sentence.

(... and no, I did not get to use or even see any sexy APL keyboards, so don't even ask. :( )

What made the night not so horrible was the guy slumped in his wheelchair doing helicopters with his wiener in the waiting room, a lady lighting a cigarette while arguing at the check-in desk, and the guy in the room next door to ours having to be escorted out because he was so ****ing high that he was throwing all his clothes and shoes at every doctor, nurse, security officer, and cop because the garments were "eating him like ****ing parasites".

CPT's just trolling...


There's NOTHING not to like about SNSD....

plastic surgery? f, off that's their job..


Typically Nerdi-Round-Sifo types will openly reject k-pop girls because (physically) they represent an unreachable plateau for them, but deep down, they know that if they ever had a shot, they'd willingly fall over and sit in the puddle.


I have a cousin that behaves and kinda looks exactly like CPT... all anger+ faux macho on the outside,  all emo on the inside.


It's like how ugly chix will say how much they h8 pretty boys, because they know that the trade for them is damn near impossible..  so they placate this dissonance by picking faults @ said pretty-boy.

I have had one day off in the past 6 weeks. If it's not work, it's renos.

My office is ready for drywall now though.

So is our new living room.

Now there is actually hanger brackets in the ceiling.

Kitchen still in boxes.

New entry and panel.

Ya, it is a bit stressful, but it is coming along. Once everything is closed back up I will feel better. 

It's a nice old house. First real reno since it was built in the 1940s. It is nice to make it our own.

I bought several houses 6 months before the financial meltdown in 2008. I did total remodels to all of them down to bare studs, carpentry, electrical, plumbing, gas, and interior finish, etc. Fulfilling and exactly the way you want it. Highly recommended.

Set a 1500 pound cartesian robot on its platform 11 feet in the air after driving the 8 foot x 10 foot machine down a 6 and a half foot hallway, making a 90° turn, then down a 7 foot wide hallway before I could pick it up in the air.  Had to drive it in with a fork truck.  Only took a couple hours once we started down the hallway.  I doubt I can get pics because of where it is and it is an international federally protected firm.

Turn it diagonally as it was 8 feet wide in the middle of the 10 foot dimension not on the ends.

Sorry can't help you there.  All they make at the plant I am working is 700+ lb castings for the 7000 series and larger using both ductile and gray iron.  For the record I work with parts held together with snap rings and they work very well but they do have their limitations.

Did some extreme **** in Mexico. Zip line, repelling off of some tall wonky structure, and went snorkeling in a cavern. Will up some pics when I get home. :-D

This explains why you've been ignoring my texts....    :cool:

Super cool!  Can't wait to see some pics.  :D

I would never willingly ignore you! :-*

I'm not good enough for you?  I'm totally going to rip up my all expenses paid Mexico adventure tickets because CPT isn't into txt adventures as much as he's into Lurch.

I think you might be too good for all of us, unless you get in on this 5-way sexting action.  ;)

While I agree with you on this, today would probably be one of the worst days to mention that on social media.  In a way I do not feel bad for you for lacking the tact.  If you feel all tragedies deserve equal representation than why say something like this on the anniversary of one of the largest terrorist attacks on US soil?

Why is this always the go to response for any tragedy?

Celeb dies. "Oh why dont you cry about the other milliom people that die".

It gets rather old and annoying.

The person complaining is usually doing nothing about it either other than complain. If people feel others should be remembered, absolutely nobody is stopping them.

I became an expert at turning 1 line on an index card into 3 to 5. Like I actually bought a magnifying dome because the writing is beyond tiny. I can fit 3 pages of textbook on one side of an index card and I'm proud of that in a nerdy way.

Also, I volunteered to be the runner in a video project, only to find that I'm not cut out for it. My calves needed ice when I got home and I took a nap too. Tiring stuff. Maybe that was enough takes and shots.

I'm done with Calculus. Going to quit the class. It ain't worth this level of stress and wanting to off myself. Not repeating last year.

Tried to get out of this perpetual funk I've been in the past few weeks and actually got out of bed and did some unpacking. People say doing things will make you feel better and take your mind off of things, but it seems to be only temporary. Essentially, whenever a mind is not in motion it's in dark crushing depression. So all I have to do is keep busy until the day I die.

Nevermind this babbling, I just needed to vent. Sick of talking to the cat.

Really? I was expecting that you could get out of civilization pretty quick from Perth. That is the impression I got when I was there. Maybe the 5 hour flight from sydney made me feel that it is more remote than it actually is.

Helped my dad fix his zero turn mower.  First he has been hitting a few stumps on the front edge of the deck then he picked up a piece of barbed wire in the blades and it caught the front lip of the deck and bent it in.  Just had to bend it back out so the blades don' t rub.

Sounds like someone smashed a finger, had blood pool underneath it and finger swelling and needed to release the pressure, so drilled a hole in the nail.

My father did this once, so this explanation seems feasible.

I crushed a toe once, it bled underneath and started to swell.  I couldn't bring myself to drill or cut into the nail.  Eventually the nail fell off.  It did grow back though.

Did this once I used a torch and some wire I had on the bench surprisingly, it didn't really hurt that much only really felt the heat witch felt more like a dull pressure. Was well worth it mostly because my friend has this thing about blood and just dropped to the floor :)

Going to Jefferson Headache Center due to a 4 month long migraine and the long wait to get into the place. Hopefully they can help me!

I'm so sorry. I hope that gets sorted out. I had a migraine for 3 months one time and ended up in the hospital on some really strangely named drugs. They worked but that's still not an experience I want to repeat. I can't imagine going another month. I think you need a hug.

so after the first month... you guys were thinking wha.. just ride it out?

No. You have to jump through a ton of hurdles before places like this will even talk to you on the phone. Family docs, neurologists (a few), acupuncture, hypnosis, therapy, meds, and so on and on.

I bought the wife her birthday present.  Got her a Marlin Mod. 990 D.U. .22LR semi-auto rifle.  Bought it off my dad for $100. 

I might tell her I want the other .22LR that he was wanting to sell me.  That one was a lever action.  The one problem is I need to relearn to shoot left handed as I am left eye dominant.

Nope that would be the bathroom floor.  Besides she would have done that years ago as I have had guns in the house since I moved back from FL.

I also had to buy a case for it so it would be legal to transport.  It has pink camo on it.

It's a bit delayed, but I haven't had a lot of time to sit down and post this since it happened.  So this post is what I did about a week and a half ago.  Please forgive me...

I went to visit CPTBadAss, along with Halverson.  We spotted this legendary KMAC.
(http://i.imgur.com/Y7M9Dbl.jpg)

Then we got some ice cream.  Because what else do you do with CPTBadAss??

After that, we bought all the vinyl.

And found some click clacks in a brick and mortar store!

I also got addicted to fountain pens... (with bonus clack)

Replacing the hard drive in the wifes computer.  I walked into the office and it was locked on a BSoD at crash dump stuff with a weird high pitched whine coming from the tower.  I forced a shutdown and restarted.  The HDD started doing the same whine along with the tell tale clicks of a dead drive, then I got a post message about inserting boot media.  Time to go to best buy for a new drive.  Picked up a seagate 2TB drive for just under $90

But you can get Higher minimum fps with the 600mhz boost.. it's all about minimum FPS.. average is mostly irrelevant as long as it's above the refresh rate of your screen.

Head up buddy, I'm knee deep in student loan debt too(federal and private),  You'll land something better eventually.  Hopefully the new job should at least be able to provide you with a little more income for food and other necessities throughout the week.  :thumb:

Yup, pretty much got to the point where any job was needed. Still sucks though. Having been a student my whole life you never really think the economy is so piss poor until you actually dive into it and realize everyone's not just been needlessly complaining the past six years.

Hey, that just means you now get to find some resident to mess with and watch him become increasingly paranoid, thinking you're out to get him when, instead, you're just having some light hearted shenanigans.


On a more serious note, sometimes all it takes is getting your foot in the door.  Become friends with the night IT people (I'm sure they have to have them) and let them know your background.  If you're good to them, they may come to you for the next opening or even a part time gig in the department.  I know a lot of places like to hire from within first.

It took me over a year to get a job after getting out of grad school and I'm in something I don't love.  I still have my head up watching for something to transfer to in the county that fits my background better.  Hopefully something comes along, but even if it doesn't, at least I love the people I work with.

In other news, apparently I bought a pretty rare keyboard off ebay for 18.50 + 16 shipping.

I should maybe explain that I went outside for purposes other than travelling to another indoor location.

But today I went outside for the sake of going outside.

Actually it goes down quite a lot.  At its worst, I consider it good if it stays up for 10 minutes.

Sometimes it stays up for several days at a time!

The problem is the cabling.  Whoever lived here before did some weird things around the place.  There are at least two cables coming out of the main phone socket, but no-one knows where they go.  There are sockets for two different phone companies installed.  In total there are 4 phone sockets and only one works.  The problem is, we are up for around $275 for a technician to come out and fix it.  So far it is tolerable.  Just.

Kind of what I was wondering, considering about the only place that AMD is beating Intel right now is in small very budget chips for very lightweight laptops/large tablets and that sort of thing.  For any real work/servers you want intel for new builds.  I could very well be wrong on this.

I think you are probably right. I work in devops for a cloud computing company so I see a lot of servers go by and they are all Intel chipsets.

I Nerded out hard.

Nice.  I would probably buy an N-64 just for Conkers Bad Fur Day, Perfect Dark (arguably the best FPS ever made for console), and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarania of Time.

You didn't list Super Mario 64 because it's just implied, right? Right?

Call me crazy but I don't think Mario has been done right since Super Mario Bros. 3 for NES.

Have you gotten a chance to play the new 3D one for the WIIU? I lost interest in Mario for a while, but that game is SO GOOD! I never get tired of it.

I Nerded out hard.

OK, first: that shirt is awesome (except I am ashamed as a Street Fighter fan, I've no idea who that cactus girl is)
second: Biomotor Unitron? CIB? You lucky sunnuva batch (also BVlast Corps is awesome too)

Never played Crush Roller, but there was a sealed one on Ebay not to long ago. Already not a super common game, but new/sealed is crazy.

The shirt is from Tokidoki so the cactus girl and the little black guy in the bottom left are Tokidoki characters. Don't worry, you didn't miss anything from Street Fighter.

Yes Biomotor Unitron in English/UK form complete in box!! I was so excited to find it in store! And yes, my Crush Roller was sealed and in English. I got to unwrap very yellowed packaging :D. Now I need to find a better Neo Geo Pocket Color console since my current one is kinda worn.

I've still never played Conkers Bad Fur Day and I can't find a cheap copy of it now :(. I love Perfect Dark and OOT though! I played Perfect Dark more than Goldeneye too when I was a kid. Amazing game.

Good luck!  :D  I hated the lecture portion of the class (pure memorization :( ), but had a blast during both regular and advanced OChem Lab.  Still makes me slightly furious that they split that up, because that is 0% similar to how I learn, but whatever.  I ended up learning things eventually.  :))

And then I drove to the place in actually going and spent 20 minutes finding the hotel. The address takes you to the totally wrong place and there are like 30 hotels here and this one was behind another. :|

Oh well! It's not the end of the world. But anyway I spent today traveling.

went to the "american clinic" to take mandatory tuberculosis test (for a UK visa). cost $100 per person.
the procedure? sign papers here, wait for an assistant to take you there. then sign these papers. then wait for an assistant to take you somewhere. then talk to doctor. sign another bunch of papers. then wait for an assistant to take you to the x-ray. then sign some papers about x-ray. then the test itself. then wait for an assistant to take you to the random place where you will meet the doctor again. wait for the doctor. sign some papers. wait for an assistant to take you to the exit.
all in one hour twenty.
russian standard tuberculosis test costs $6 and takes ten minutes. but isn't approved by the UK government.

went to the city of Pushkin to visit Catherine's palace.

(http://cs622228.vk.me/v622228724/3a7e/8vxwQNevBMA.jpg)

each and every one in our tour group had a pocket radio with a headphone to listen to the tour guide (makes excursions much more silent).
to not spoil the super royal floors, the palace had free disposable socks:

the ballroom was almost empty:

everything here is formidable:

the empress Catherine I. was a glamorous *****. never wore one dress two times. after her death, left 15000 dresses and a lot of unpaid bills:

had a walk in a park afterwards:

chinese guy says don't walk in the park after dark (but we did):

Look, you don't have to know who he is.  You don't have to care that I saw him last night.  That's fine.  If someone does care that I saw someone and is curious who he is, they will look him up.  Problem solved.

There are also those of us that explore music, regardless of year or genres, no reason to live in such a small world.

BTW, you may not know Robin Trower, but you know his music. You literally can't escape it its in everything.

Fingers crossed for you mate! I have a terrible track record with doing my own soldering, just gonna get someone else to do it for me when my next PCB arrives :/

Today was a productive one for me. I woke up early and made pancakes for breakfast, then I replaced the battery and rear glass on my Nexus 4. Got that finished early so I pushed on and finished up bugfixing an app  that my company is releasing soon. Now I'm eating leftover turkey and gravy in a Turkish roll :D

And hopefully you caught your dog's diabetes soon enough.  I know it's only Wikipedia, but it sounds like it is treatable with little if any impact on the dog's quality of life.  Here's hoping :)

Did the same thing. Slept for 15hrs, woke up at 7pm. Sat in bed for another hour and a half staring at the ceiling because I literally had no reasons to even get out of bed. Eventually I had to piss. Taking a piss has been the highlight of my day, and people wonder why I think about suicide so much. 3 more months...

At first, I was a nervous wreck (no pun intended). After several hours it all sank in and I accepted it for what it was.

Walked away without a scratch.

It isn't as difficult as I thought it would be tbh! The piping I would say is the hardest bit (the shapes of most of them are nowhere near right) but the actual baking of them wasn't far off what I would expect. I think they just need trial and error to get right rather than some other baking where it just goes wrong for seemingly no reason. I would definitely recommend trying to make them.

On the down spout shots, I was trying to get the drop in focus just after dropping off the down spout.  I must have taken 40 pics trying to get it.  Each time I would actually get the drop in the shot it would be out of focus.  The lens baby is a manual only focus and the way you change the aperature is by swapping out discs in the lens.

Popped all the caps out of a dell quietkey RD PS/2 keyboard and gave her a thorough cleaning. Hung it on my office wall afterwards--she's my 'in case of emergency' go to

I find Tide detergent powder is ideal for Rubber dome keyboard washing..  it gets all the grease off perfectly..

May hit them in a bath next time. Did a round of anti-bacteral wipes on each key followed by a round of alcohol free wipes on each key. I was satisfied with the results :]

That better be one hell of an emergency to go through the three boards in your sig and make it to the Dell.   :o

Lol. Probably from the last of "thick-bodied" plastic shell rub domes. I'll take a photo tomorrow. In the meantime, a stock photo below:

Just came home from a local animal shelter. Istanbul has a big problem with stray cats and dogs, but thankfully we also have a lot of shelters for them. A group of friends (Beşiktaş supporters) will usually meet up, get $300-$400 worth of food and go there and feed the cats and dogs, then play with them for a few hours.

Will take a shower and probably relax with some Battlefield afterwards.

 :(   Yes.

For GA shows, I typically don't stand in the front.  For assigned seating shows, I sit wherever my ticket is.  I go to a lot of classic rock shows where the audience sits, so thankfully that's not an issue a lot.  And the newer shows are typically GA, so as I said I'm not being obnoxious.  (split on shows is ~50/50 standing/sitting)

I did go to one show where the audience was terrible and shaming me for being tall, that was not a good day.

Yeah.  It's a school and 2:30 was the only time slot I could get.  Then expect it to take 2-3 hours to be done.  I know they tend to do a good job and are cheap, so it's that or spending $50 on a cut elsewhere and praying it's good.

Moved into my new house. Still stuff to do, but we are in (well if you can count everything being in boxes still "in"). Pretty major milestone. :). 12 weeks without a day off. Not sure the streak will end just yet, but I am feeling a little better now.

First world problems:
- all my keyboard are packed.
- I don't have internet.
- I still have to wire up the cable and Ethernet cables to even put in internet.

Oh let's see...

I woke up at 8, then went to get coffee and a sausage egg and cheese croissant from Dunkin Donuts.

Came home and enjoyed my breakfast.

Farted around online for a while until Microcenter opened.

Went to Microcenter to get a GTX 980 for my briefcase build and decided to hang out for a bit talking to the folks in the Build Your Own PC department (they're my friends).

While at Microcenter, I got into a verbal altercation with another customer who rudely walked up and interrupted one of the guys helping another customer, acting like he owned the place. The customer was asking about a power supply and this mental backbirth decided that he just needed to be helped immediately. I put my hand on his chest and politely, yet firmly, told him that the guy behind the counter was helping another customer at the moment and that he would have to wait his turn. Guy looked at me and slapped my hand away then started cursing me out, threatening to kick my ass. I got right into his face and told him in a quiet and deathly serious voice that if he tried, I would burn him down and salt the earth. He wisely shut up then left.

About an hour later, I left and drove around for a while, eventually heading homewards where I picked up another coffee on the way and stopped at Lowes to pick up a dozen pumice sticks (I tell you... got a hard water stain or something that just will not come out with conventional cleaners? These bad boys handle it with ease).

Got home and did some more farting around online, and now I'm here.

Today I went to a local-ish electronic's store (Fry's) and checked out the keyboards there. First taps of mechanical switches. Spent a good while there and decided on MX blues. Browns were too soft and reds just didn't feel right to me. They had like 50 keyboards out and approximately 4 mechanicals >_>;

Anyway it was cool. Fun day.

Ah cool, you have ethernet inside the walls?  I've got ethernet inside the wall in my appartment... Die WiFi, die ;)

(I've got WiFi too that said)

Today I did fix a shiny shelf I bought for 50 EUR... It's all chrome + glass and the chrome was rusty everywhere. I removed the rust with coke (Coca-Cola) then removed the coke with water. Then WD40.  And now it's all dry and shiny again. Coke seems to works wonder to remove rust from Chrome as long as there aren't holes already.

I put that shelf in my office and I may use it to display some of my keyboards  :p

Yeah, I can understand. Most of my house is either a warm grey or an eggshell white, with gloss white trim. The kitchen has tiled walls (tiles made by mother), and the bathrooms are all lime green.

My parents repainted everything but the kitchen about a year ago.

1) It wouldn't help.

2) I would never actually do that unless my life was in jeopardy. I just have the gift of looking 100% sincere even when laying out what is quite obviously bull****.

Getting close to finishing the fine tuning on this sensor adapter module.  Newer BMW instruments into an older model.  Using a DAC to create a voltage is easy, but for this I needed to emulate a resistance.  PWM, mosfets, filter caps, decoupling caps, two stages to get the range I need, and 120 lines of Arduino code.

Breadboard is still missing half of the protection circuitry, will be more populated when it's jammed onto a real PCB.  Automotive power is noisy as hell!

edit: As it stands, my output ripple is 15mV.  This cluster is pretty sensitive, it'll reject a signal completely if it's too noisy.  It'll also reject the signal if it swings too rapidly during testing.

While at Microcenter, I got into a verbal altercation with another customer who rudely walked up and interrupted one of the guys helping another customer, acting like he owned the place. The customer was asking about a power supply and this mental backbirth decided that he just needed to be helped immediately. I put my hand on his chest and politely, yet firmly, told him that the guy behind the counter was helping another customer at the moment and that he would have to wait his turn. Guy looked at me and slapped my hand away then started cursing me out, threatening to kick my ass. I got right into his face and told him in a quiet and deathly serious voice that if he tried, I would burn him down and salt the earth. He wisely shut up then left.
i sincerely hope you seek professional help as soon as possible.

Why?

1) It wouldn't help.

2) I would never actually do that unless my life was in jeopardy. I just have the gift of looking 100% sincere even when laying out what is quite obviously bull****.


Incidentally, every time I look at your avatar and read what your Location says, I can't help but think that it should say "a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside a baguette."



You must be a big guy..  little guy like Tp4 could never do that..  I would LITERALLY have to burn him down to be taken seriously..

i came to the point where i wanted to break my samsung mega 5.8 off the wall. It was lagging. It became buggy when receiving a call: moving a slider would not accept a call, but just make some vibration. Even if it could accept a call, they won't be able to hear me, and the connection would interrupt in 20 seconds or so.
It became unbearable. I decided i don't need a phone which can't, well, be a phone. I thought all android devices were like that, so i considered buying an iphone or a blackberry. Saw both iphone 6 and blackberries at the stores and wasn't impressed much. Tried new top grade android phones with 4.4 and realized those weren't laggy. Finally, android devices that don't lag, awesome.
I thought it would be nice to just buy a flagship phone with 4.4, spent like two days researching the market and reading reviews and then all of a sudden found out the last week post on a russian pda forum about the cyanogen mod which finally was available for my device. I installed it and it was awesome. No lags, no samsung ****, no google crap, splendid.
But i needed software. Decided to go with amazon app store. Installed it, ran, logged in and... It turned chinese. I spent, like, 15 minutes trying to find the language option in its menus, but failed. Logged in to amazon from my pc and found out that i entered wrong password on the device. Logged in correctly on the phone and interface turned english. Wow, amazon is so original. Nevertheless, i found out that it lacks the programs i need, so i installed google play from a zip archive and lived happily ever after. Well, almost happily. i don't like too small icons and too small font size here and there.

The other day, I desoldered the switches from my stainless JD40.  Today, I took the top and bottom plate to work and cleaned up the laser cut edges on the outside, got rid of the discoloration from the cutting process, and gave them a brushed finish with some 60 grit emery cloth.  Just have one face left on the bottom plate.  They look so much better.  I do have to say, that laser cut edge holds switches like a vise.

Bought some metal to make some switch tools of a new design....realized I bought too thick of metal after I cut some too short.  At least it was cheap.  I may be able to thin it and make it usable.  If it works, you can expect pictures of my design and if it goes really well, I'll see about getting a bunch laser cut and made up.

Also dyed a bunch of Model M caps (the $30 M I bought had one piece caps, score) and the case.  The case turned out okay since I couldn't exactly fit it in a pot on the stove, but it still looks good.  Once everything finishes drying, I'll get some pictures up.

Been working this ****ty janitor job for a month now, time to start filling out real job apps again. I keep telling myself 'OK, today I'll start doing apps again,' then never do it because when I get home I'm exhausted. Today is the day! And dammit, I'm gonna have a real job that I actually look forward to in a few months! It's gonna happen!

GL, you seem pretty smart so I'm sure you'll get something good.

Last Thursday I spilled Coke on my Filco. I disassembled it and gave it a thorough cleaning and a quick bath. Working perfectly with no sticky keys.

Today I spilled Tea on my Filco. Not as bad so I haven't done as thorough a cleaning job and it's still drying now.

The growing list of liquids I have spilled on my Filco is as follows:

Sunkist
Dr.Pepper
Coke
Tea

I should probably rethink my "Placing my drink between my arms while at my computer" policy.

I had to replace the "Home" switch after the Sunkist incident because I accidentally tore the entire switch off of the PCB and plate trying to clean it... don't ask, it was before I knew anything about mechs.

Oh well, an excuse to use my JD40 for a while I guess.

Helped a plumber unblock our toilet.  actually unblock about 27 metres of underground pipe, he said it ended up taking to clear the blockage.  Not out blockage - he said it would have been getting worse for a very long time.

Golf is the best sport evarrrrrrr. I love it for that fact that I can't blame anyone else but myself for the performance. No teammates to offload the faults on---he dropped the ball, he missed the catch, etc etc. Golf is a true measure of oneself. :D

Any time buddy.  I will definitely be going back.  Some of the better beer I have had in a long time.  Their Electrostatic is amazing, so good I was forced to bring home a growler.

Today created my first (non-evasive) Kinesis Advantage "Mod". Using the dashboard rubber gel and stuck my Trackpad in the middle of the Kinesis. Not sure how this gel exactly works, but the stuff is sticky as hell, but no glue or glue residue is involved.

It's called a sno-cone, and it seems to be similar to a Granita.  It's basically just crushed ice with a flavoured sugar sauce poured on top.  :)  A kids dream!  :))

Saw The Book of Morman, the comedy musical by the South Park creators here in Richmond Virginia

Was great.

the dialogue is hilarious and some people left during the intermission because I don't think they knew what they were getting into; The area surrounding Richmond is super Christian conservative.

Poor and wrong typing skills for decades and hunt and peck gave me serious tendon problems, forced to work on it by using Kinesis Advantage and learning to touch-type. Beefing up my touch-typing skills with the fabulous app Amphetype (https://code.google.com/p/amphetype/) that I got from a thread here on GH. Getting better. Sad to do this on a beautiful Sunday while my wife is marking schoolwork...  :-X

Ohhh very interesting concept. I'd be down for a set if you can get them working. It'll be interesting to see how that design compares to the_beast tools. I've always found the_beast tools a little bit clumsy to use.

Yesterday: was about to go to Staraya Ladoga, Russia's oldest capital, but drinking the night before on an ex-colleague's birthday party broke my plans, hehe. So we went to the game consoles exhibition instead. Saw the first gaming console ever (Odyssey Magnavox), first Atari's console (Pong Madness), first color console (Fairchild Channel F), Atari 2600, the Soviet Electronica Videosport and many more.

That's the Magnavox:

Then went to Saint Petersburg's oldest pyshechnaya (sorta bakery), opened in 1958. Only one kind of pastry, only sweet coffee with milk, but always big crowds.

Then went to the proper restaurant, hehe.

Then watched Interstellar.

Then went to a friend's place for some tea, and she told us she is pregnant. Even her husband doesn't know yet :D

Then watched Tootsie at home.

Getting ready to attend USMC dinner tonight.  This event will be bittersweet... Sweet to hang out with other former jarheads, bitter to remember the loss of fallen comrades.

Lol, no, that was just the disclosure, offer, rider, employment affidavit, salary affidavit (ours is weird because of my work that I told you about Lurch), and pre-approval something or other.

We're hoping they accept our offer. It's 10k below asking price, but it's been on the market 45 days and the market here gets slower and slower through the holidays.

Housing is sooooo expensive here. I really can't believe it either. We're not rich compared to the local economy; it's simply what our family needs and is reasonably close to the kids' school and my job.

Been to USSR in the early 90's, I'm glad you like it there. It's definitely not for me

This is true. You can't have 1 iphone 6 Plus in your hand. It takes two. Also two more hands for the two girlfriends. When are you going to have time left for your 3 jobs??

Don't want ANY jobs but I have little to do through the holidays so might as well earn some income, meet some peeps, network, blah blah. Something great can happen, maybe meet a lonely, sexy keyboard in a hipster bar/coffee house.

Also, if these pictures I found on Google are any indication, you should not touch the Filco or use the internet.

Yes my wife and I are Vegetarian, we cook mostly Vegan though. We love Chipotle, wow the seasoning on the tofu is superb! Especially with Medium Salsa!
The line is always super long here as well. I was glad when Mcdonalds and Chipotle parted their relationship when they didnt have the same views on how the animals were raised and where the ingredients came from. I Love Chipotle as a company!

I've had a TON of Jucy Lucys from Matts bar and grill and 5 8 Club! The originators of MPLS MN! :)
At the moment I can have Lactose Free cheese in a Tofu Seasoned Burger or Sweet Potato Burger, Mmmmmm.. Sweet Potatos. Or if I wanted to be vegan I would go Dairy free cheese which tastes slight less as good as lactose free. I do miss Matts bar and Fuddruckers but thats it. haha Honestly not worth it just for those 2 places once a year. :)
But yeah man, good Minneapolis burger name drop! They are delicous. :D

Me too, I don't usually hate myself as much after eating a burrito bowl than I do a full on burrito. Their guacamole is friggen amazing too, but I do think it costing $2.50 to add is a little excessive.

adding guacamole or avocado to anything in any restaurant or fast food is ridiculously over priced. especially avocado. at least with guacamole they prepare it.

I went to (and am still at) work.

But, I work at the Helpdesk, and the Helpdesk server has been down all day.

How can the Helpdesk help others if it can't even help itself??? ???

My new co-worker told me about how her boyfriend just spent "over $100 on a keyboard at Microcenter" and how crazy it was. She asked me if I knew about mechanical keyboards.








....then I told her a little about my Leeku 1800 and Kish. She was telling me how loud the board was and I was telling her about the beeper on my 6019284. But I think she was past caring.

Happens to me all the time. It's like, don't ask an eccentric specialist about something technical if you aren't looking for a passionate and in-depth answer. There's no reason to feign politeness and ask in the first place if your reaction is going to be one of disinterest.

I don't think she'll go all in.  I envision her buying one pen (maybe two (oh god, this is where it starts)), and probably not any keyboards.  I don't think she'll do that, but will just ogle mine.  :P

Discovered that the mouse still works if you move it across the (LCD) monitor surface, although because the mouse pointer moves faster than the mouse, it was a little disconcerting.

Also the mouse pointer cannot be seen when it moved under the mouse, necessitating moving the mouse to see the mouse pointer, which moved the mouse pointer somewhere else.

I spend my day being really satisfied about myself. I made the gamble to lower the memory target for my Oracle database during a data import and it paid off. The first test I had a timing of 5 hours the import, then it was suggested to increase the memory on the machine, because we had some 16Gb to spare on that VM config. So why not give Oracle more memory to play with? Second test timing dropped to 15 hours.  I suggested to lower the memory again, but nooo, more memory = faster. I am not a DBA, but I just figured it worked faster with less, so logic says that we test again with lesser memory. So someone else took over, created indices, cleared the recycle bin, cleaned up the audit table and recalculated the statistics. Tests now clocked on 12 hours.
Today during production migration, i gambled and set the memory to the original value, and I clocked the import at 4h58m.

TL;DR: I was right and I am not even the expert on this. Good day.

Saw Kreator and Arch Enemy! Might be the best show I've seen this year. Got to meet Skuloth too! Had a blast hanging out with him and catching the show. More GHers should see shows with me!

Do Arch Enemy play any of their older stuff at shows now that White-Gluz is vocals?

The show was actually mostly older songs. Well maybe 50-50. But it was amazing. I actually like White-Gluz more than Angela.  :eek:

DONT DO IT.

I lost 5 years of my life to that game, and when you get to the point of being in a capital ship in a large alliance, it gets really ****ing boring. You basically start revolving your life around the game and if you don't take part, you get kicked out. Not fun.

But, if you guys want any tips, send me a message, I will give you a hand. I still have money on my accounts I just haven't got them subbed.

Made a killer crock pot dinner.

2 10 oz. cans cream of chicken with mushroom
2 8 oz. Blocks of cream cheese
1 packet Italian dressing mix
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Seasoning to taste.  I used Italian seasoning, garlic powder, smoked paremesean, lowreys seasoning salt, and a touch of ground cumin, and marjoram


Mix cream of chicken, italian dressing mix, 1 and a half cans of water
Add to crock pot with whole chicken breasts and cream cheese.
Cook on medium heat for 4 hours.
Pull chicken and shred or cut up into small pieces and add back to crock pot
Pour over cooked pasta of choice

I had all four wisdom teeth pulled years back.  Two lower were impacted and beginning to cause me pain while the two upper ones while straight would eventually push my other teeth and put me back in braces.  I remember that I had to puree all my food since it hurt so much to open my mouth. :-X

Around 7 this morning I pulled a pair of turkeys out of my smoker that had been sitting in there since 1 yesterday afternoon.  Then I put the top rack back in my smoker (had to pull it out due to the turkeys being to large), then ran the cheese for a couple hours.  The extra sharp cheddar is getting an extra hour.  I also had some bruschetta cheddar, along with some chipotle, cheddar.  That smoked pepper jack I brought to Hoffmans meetup has nothing on any of these.  Sadly though they turkeys are not for me. 

Whoa, smoked cheeses! [feverishly googling more info now]

I have a meat and cheese smoking guide here in the off topic somewhere.

Also, I survived the early black friday sales at Wal-Mart.  The only thing we were there for was Legos.  They had tubs with 1600 pieces for $30.  We got two of them.

Gratz on the safe trip.  The longest one I have done is 1300 in one shot.  That was 20 hours of drive time by myself.  I don't think i would do that again.

sunday: went to thai massage ("77 minutes of happiness") with wife, it was ok but nothing special. then went to a chocolate bar. then to a seafood restaurant. had coconut soup and shrimp dumplings. was also ok but nothing special. then wife went to a book store and i went to a liquor store. then columbo night continued.

Set a pair of 39' 3000 pound rails about 35 feet in the air on the bridge beams only to find out the beams were not even close to straight so the contractor had to fix that before we could continue with those rails.  We are installing a 25 and a 50 ton bridge crane in a new building with no roof.  Its still a touch chilly here in Iowa.

New idea. Sell car to me, I drive it and unneeded components home, solving all of your problems. Except for the one where you don't have a car anymore.

I am very happy to have found such an awesome artist. I've had 5 sittings with him now. The only issue is (as he runs his own shop with no other employees) is that the time between each sitting is 4 or 5 months.  I'm over the moon with the work on my Egyptian themed sleeve so far, my arm was a little tender this morning in the workshop, but I've kept it clean and washed it several times and have never had issues with my ink from him. I'm super happy

On average you are alive. In reality, you would be dead. ;)

Worked as a callcenter employee today. At work we have some serious phone problems so they put up an emergency callcenter. Didn't work that well, the line keeps dropping.

Just did some digital cleaning in my IMGur albums and had fun looking up the Hapster (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=37066.0) keys backstory. :)

Had to climb across about 40 feet of steel to set a string line for one of the bridge cranes we are setting.
[attach=1]

We also set one of the trucks on the rails for the 50 ton bridge crane.  The truck is the yellow steel in the air.  We set that with a 12000 pound capacity fork truck.
[attach=2]

This is the crane we are going to be using to set the beams that connect the two trucks together.

These are the two beams for the 50 ton.

The climbing is fun but I do hope you had a safety harness on. You do not want to fall from such a height.

I think it looks a bit better now. I'll try to straight more of them out when I find some leds to add in.

I think I maybe should have gotten pcb mount instead. I didn't know this pcb had the holes for it so I told gon to give me plate mounts. :x

Had Comcast out to install my X1 DVR and secondary HD cable boxes. Also set up a new HDTV upstairs to go with the aforementioned cable box. Now I can watch hockey on the main TV while my wife watches her recorded shows in the bedroom. Got the new TV to work with Comcast's remote control, and also set up the new DVR box with our trusty Logitech Harmony.

I also had the tech confirm my upgrade from 50 to 105 Mbps Internet service, and that's working a treat. It took less than an hour to download The Evil Within, a game that checks in at about 40 GB.

After my son wakes up from his nap, we're going to head out grocery shopping.

There was an 8th grader next to me too. Duke University has a program that allows them to take it.

Seems a bit asinine to me, as nothing comes from them taking the test. I know I wasn't thinking about college in 8th grade.

All the parents are doing is spending money for what is more than likely to be a sub par score that won't help much with colleges. It won't help with superscoring considering you'll improve in every section from middle to high school. Now just to wait for my PSAT scores back. Unfortunately VA has some of the highest merit scholarship scores in the nation, so just kinda hoping for a 200+

The only things that most people miss in the math section is stuff like really specific geometry questions because people took it sometimes 3-4 years ago and haven't used it since. Sure I could tell you about instantaneous rate of change, but I sure as hell don't remember how to find arc length

Well, the actual money you get from the scholarship is barely anything, but it sure looks nice on applications. And I guess depending one where you're looking, some schools will throw some money your way.

Power went out for almost 11hrs today/last night. from about 9:30PM to 8:30AM. **** ****ing sucked, I was right in the middle of transferring files and everything on my 360 internal HD and external (non 360) HD is corrupted including some of the first games/assets/code I ever made in Actionscript :(

How the **** does the power stay out for nearly half a day in the year 2014? What the hell.

The cat loved it though, and I found out my phone battery is amazing. It was at around 67% charge when the power went out, I played games on it for about 5hrs plus internetted via 4G and still had a charge when I woke up at 9.  :thumb:

Dmk, I'm not insensitive, I just find it hard to believe that one could be THAT upset about this person he never really knew..

Can one be empathetic, and recognize that it's a bad situation.. YES.. and I do both..

but just how much "bad" is one suppose to feel.. I mean.. the rest of you finger-pointers are merely exhibiting a bunch of pre-programmed social behaviors that don't actually match reality..

I don't see any of you empathetic over the genocides that happen each day, WHy's that..

man, ya'll a bunch of hypocrites..


And in other stories about uncles and cousins..  one of my uncles shot my cousin (his son) with a shotgun after the kid slept with my uncle's mistress.. (http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/onion-head/uhuhuh-onion-head-emoticon.gif?1292862523)

There is no age where you could say: "Ohhh getting shot, is ok.". But maybe he was some kind of trafficker and his family didn't know about it. If it is so then that's part of the job. But if he was someone legit then ****, I guess he didn't deserve it. Sorry for your loss anyway.

I sucesfully put a differnet layout on my JD40 using the Easy AVR tool and the teensy loader from PRJC.   I tried using Flip but kept getting an error message wanting the some usb.dll file.  Now I just need to get used to this different layout.  Didn't change a whole lot but moved the Fn to space as tap key and put the punctuation in a more traditional layout.  Here is my layout.

[attach=1]

I have set the max hold time all the way down to 100 seconds. Not sure if I like it this low but I seem to hit keys on the function layer a lot less.

From what I have been told it is healthier for the grass to mow when it is wet.  Plus it helps the blade stay sharp longer as the dew and the oils in the grass help lubricate and the grass cuts more than tears.

Took a 7 hour train ride back from Berlin. I had a reunion this weekend with a small group of friends from my old Erasmus group.
It was awesome!

I believe my Club Mate (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Club-Mate) collection is coming together quite nicely.
(http://i.imgur.com/YTcZT7Ph.jpg) (http://imgur.com/YTcZT7P)

Unlike other energy drinks, Clube Mate is low on sugar and the prime ingredient that gives it a kick is yerba mat�, a South American jungle plant that is high in caffeine.There are about 100 milligrams of caffeine in each 500 millilitre bottle.
Now I am not a Hacktivist (http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/features/2013/07/2013718165122387621.html) (EDIT: Let me try again, I am not a software engineer or something similar) at all but this is really the only 'energydrink' I actually like.

Not quite. I don't have a guard in it or a bag for it so it just shoots everything out the back.

I am trying to make it run right though. It'll only stay running choked and it's running too slow - smells like it's running rich. I'll have to screw with the carb adjustments later as well as find out if it has a gas leak because it's drinking gas but I can't tell if it's leaking or not because of the rain.

Reading up on the Russian crisis and trying to find reviews of Russian Post as an order I have is making its way across Russia. I learnt a couple of things;
-it's amazing easy to control and manage perception of the world when your in power
-russia is big
-russian post isn't great

I wonder what else I'll learn by the end of today ^^

Especially considering I've been making minimum wage for the past year and three months...

And in actuality, it's more like a $1.50 raise because it's an 85˘ raise on the new minimum wage starting in January.

Yeah, I'd read somethings like that on forums and things but a lot of them were dated like 1-2 years ago and I guess things could change. And to be fair in three days the package I went to went from central Russia (like literally if you put a pin in the middle of Russia) to Moscow, which isn't terrible compared to other national postage systems... I just hope it gets from Moscow to London via the air...

Well it's being delivered to the UK and I leave for Italy on Sunday so if it dsn't arrive by then, it dsn't really matter as I don't get back to the UK until mid-Jan anyway.
I ordered it like two weeks ago assuming it would arrive in time, and if it can be put on a plane to London before Friday there is a chance it will arrive in time... but

Log into the DT Wiki with your account info. Hit edit, start editing. If you need help, post in the subforum they have on Wiki editing. People are usually very helpful. 002 really helped me out when I was uploading the scans from the Cherry sales catalogs I have.

It is around that type of machinery but factory equipment is so guarded that you can't hardly get withing a foot of anything moving with openings in screenguarding/expanded steel of 1".  If you can even get that close.  I keep my hair tied back in a pony tail at work every day as well which is hard on it also.  If I am using tools where that is a concern I can either tuck it under my shirt or up inside my hard hat.

I disconnected my car's battery to reset the ECU and clear a check engine light after the gas cap wasn't tightened properly.

Well, it wasn't the gas cap. Things got worse yesterday; sluggish acceleration and surges in engine power.

As it turns out, the engine was misfiring and the spark plugs needed to be replaced.

Having done that, it is now good to go for the holidays!  Vroom vroom!

Woke up from an awesome dream that had characters from The Wire and Boardwalk Empire interacting, and gave me a great idea for a story that could become a good novel. So many ideas, so little time to write them all.

Spent a few hours programming the X-key XK-24, which is replacing the macro keys on the Logitech G110 (since I only use the macro keys and not the actual keyboard anymore). Also received the Adesso numeric keypad and the RealForce 87U Type-S today too.

Did a little bit of teaching just now (online art/CG workshop), and about to head to the shower. Tomorrow driving down to the Bay Area with the wife to spend time with my brother and his family at the Exploratorium.

Watched The Maze Runner today. I don't think I have ever seen a movie with so so so many plotholes. It's like they didn't even proofread the script, it's actually kind of impressive how many contradictory plot devices made it into the movie.

Then came home and hung some art since we are still getting settled in this new house.

All this art is done by a friend of mine. We have another 4 or 5 pieces of his which I don't have up yet.

Man, places like that are amazing when you're a kid. I used to spend entire days at the Cloisters Children's Museum in MD, and then beg my mom to take me back the next day... and the next. It's like exploring whole new worlds if they are designed correctly. Sigh, nostalgia. :)

Hell yeah I wish our group wouldn't have broke up.  one of the DM's had a god complex, so he left.  Then there ended up being a bunch of drama between a couple guys due to living arangements and then a woman got in the middle of it.  Got ugly.  Really put a damper on our gaming.

Same here. Well, my mom and stepdad, that is; they just went to court to finalize it this past week... my mom and dad separated when I was 6...

On a slightly less depressing note, I finally finished bolt modding my 122-key Model M, only to find that the entire home row does not function. I'm guessing I need to dis and reassemble it and make sure the membrane is seated properly... or replace it entirely...

EDIT: Membrane is fully functional. Must have been the rubber sheet wasn't seated properly... will try reassembling it...

Actually I do like it! I even ate durian ice cream flavor back when I worked in an Asian grocery store (I'm not Asian). I'm really open-minded on food matters and I'm very curious as well. I love black beans ice cream flavor. The only thing I wouldn't try was fried fish bladders.

Well since both the wife and I both play WoW, and this expansions legendary is a ring.  I sent her on a legendary quest line (scavenger hunt around the house) for her gift (mothers ring with hers and both kids birthstones).

Took apart my SNES, gave her a RetroBrite bath and cleaned all surfaces and contacts inside. Runs almost like new.

Probably not just due to Blizzard saying they will not go past level 100 and my oldest is 6.

This: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=34972.0

I have two HHKB (black and white) and completed the band mod on the black board earlier this year, which I have loved. I decided to do the white board, as I'll be using it at work and share an office with one guy. It quiets the board down a little, but also makes the keys a bit more stiff, in my opinion. Generally, for me, it's a much better-feeling board after.

They work really well together, and it is really funny at times. But there was no way it could live up to the hype. The jokes were pretty obvious, and it didn't really look like a very high budget movie at all.

Do the band mod on your HHKB! I feel it made the switches heavier. I kept one stock to compare and they seemed a bit heavier. Not 55g heavier, but a bit. Maybe all placebo.

Mine is still wrapped in the shipping material in the box it was shipped in. *sigh*

Today is day 3 of living in a hotel, starting to get old already.

Don't even unpack it, just send it to me.  ;D

Also I'm still at the age where I think hotel are fun. But I'm immature so...
It must be the novelty of sleeping in x amount of other peoples semen.

is it really better than sleeping in your own?  hrrmmm......

I showed my wife the ui I have been working on for my plate building tool and she said "so you are doing this for free and just giving it away to everyone?".  I was like "yep". She looked confused.  She doest really get why I would spend all my free time working on a project that I am just giving away.

For me its a bit like carving (one of my other hobbies). I do it for fun and to take my mind off the other stuff that I HAVE to do. As soon as you start getting paid for something you have an obligation to it and it takes the fun it of it. That is why I turn down all the commissioned carving. If I start doing it for money it won't be a way for me to relax my brain.

a mix between what did you do today and what did you add to your keyboard

today i cleaned up a really dirty Lexmark 1995 model M i bought in June 2013 for 25$ shipped and was chilling in my closet. I cleaned everything externally including key caps, i added in the missing key-caps and now it looks as good as new. needs a new ps2 cable (this is not a model with SDL :( ) which i will do later. ill clean out the inside when i replace the ps2 cable, i dont think it needs bolt modding it feels pretty good. i don't feel or hear anything rattling around on the inside which is a good sign.

once its done i'm going to give this away to one of my friends if i can convert him to buckling spring from cherry mx blue

It was really nasty, nastier than even that crappy photo shows, stuff was all up in the keys and stuff. I used bleach household cleaner, a microfiber rag, and a paintbrush to get the dust and dirt and loose stuff off/out. Got to love that PVC construction and PBT key caps :) that **** would murder most other keyboards and key caps.

Cleaned the garage and threw a PERC 6/i into the HP XW8600 and stuck 4 146 gig SAS drives on it for ****s and giggles.

Kind of odd using a Dell RAID card in the HP but at the same time I'm not buying stupid adapters so I can use the LSI 1068 onboard with SAS drives. Including plain SAS headers would've been too hard.

That's crazy that people have to pay that much for college/school. You didn't even start your life that you already owe 30 grant ... Best way to handicap people IMHO.

It's pretty ridiculous how much college has become in the USA.

My goal for grad school is to get a job and see if I can get some help that way.

FWIW, every company I've worked for as an engineer has had graduate school help. The company will pay for it straight up, subsidize it, or reimburse you. I'm currently deciding if I want my Master's.

Quote from: nubbinator on Tue, 06 January 2015, 21:51:15
Many STEM degrees, especially engineering and medicine, do not give scholarships to most of the students in the program.

Are you sure about that? I knew a lot of people who had scholarships and studied engineering. I was fortunate enough to be one of those people.

You and I were lucky to do traineeship. The school is paid by your company and you do 1 week school then 1 week work in the company. You also have a salairy which is nice.

Most companies got rid of apprenticeships AFAIK. Dunno why. Cost probably. I had some internships but I don't think they're the same as traineeship/apprenticeships.

In France what the companies pay for apprenticeships  are deducted from company taxes . So it basicly cost nothing to the company .

Most do not for grad degrees.  Undergrad degrees is another story.  Sorry, I wasn't clear about that.

Only one other guy has run the game, but still pretty happy. I found a few new skips in it, so it wasn't to difficult. I played sloppily in the second level, so I need to improve it. There are also some routing improvements I've been working on. I hope to get sub 25.

We are at my house in North Carolina.

I really wish we could have sorted CMYW together, that would have been quite surreal. Sadly, it is still in production. He brought his HASRO and I brought my Corsa, Duck Viper and Type-S. OG cherry dyesubs are really nice, 8/8.

It's quiet. The only sounds were their footsteps and the echoing hum of worn florescent lights.

As they walked further, Lurch suddenly felt a chill.

An almost invisible force merged his hand in Hoff's.

They did not look at each other, just carried on walking.

I was just following the direction Lurch and Hoff were directing.. I thought that's what the audience wanted..


But as to Yaoi specifically..  I don't think it qualifies as a genre all to itself,   the only difference in yaoi is the gender of the characters..  but the entire story progression is no less formulaic..


I've never written any fan fic..    I was considering a startrek one a while back.. but I decided I would write something that was too real, and it would detract from the universe I love..

Deeply ashamed of what he has done.. Vesper resolved to rectify his mistake..

It was all too easy he thought; as Lurch and Hoff were already passed out on the bed, tied together, asleep..

Vesper found an axe in the kitchen. It was large and heavy. He gripped the handle as hard as he could until his palms writhed in pain.

He wanted the agony, to feel anything at all, as he was so emotionally drained from what has transpired just before.

A teary, maniacal smile spread across his face as he lifted the axe high.

in a smooth swing.......




Honestly.. this stuff is really easy to write... hmm.....

I successfully resurrected an F XT back to life using soarers.  Typed on that for a few minutes while still at the lap top.  Now I am on my desktop with my rosewill with lubed ghost blacks and its just meh. I want my BS but I don't feel like setting my iron back up after doing the speakers in my car.  Plus I need to figure out how to do a function layer and move a few keys around before it becomes a daily driver for me.

If you were my dad, I would bet $50 it's a Motorola E815 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorola_E815).  And I would have said this before you mentioned it was Motorola.

Sniped my first ebay auction.

Whatcha get?

Just an older cell phone that I would be laughed at for admitting I bought.  :-X

Was it of the Nokia Heritage?

inb4 dante pm's me wanting a nokia........no it was a motorola :P

If you were my dad, I would bet $50 it's a Motorola E815 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorola_E815).  And I would have said this before you mentioned it was Motorola.

Actually it was a smartphone just last years (2013) model. :P

You should post pics of your iPod collection somewhere (maybe here (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=66119.0)? ;) ).  I have a modest iPod collection (6 of them) as well.   :thumb:

BUT WHY DID I LEAVE MY CAMERA IN MY DORM ROOM! There are so many things I've wanted to take pictures of. My collections, the keyboard dorkvader built for me, some cool stuff I got from my family for christmas. I got a bag of pickle flavored popcorn and a bag of bacon cheddar flavored popcorn, and I have no photographic evidence. First world problems. >:D >:D >:D >:D

Went to Russia's oldest capital, Staraya Ladoga, founded roughly in 745.

(http://cs540101.vk.me/c622523/v622523724/138e4/KQzXvHwbFZU.jpg)

Never go there if you are athletic. The last icon prohibits.

(http://cs540101.vk.me/c622523/v622523724/1380e/jf9vAYIfgNQ.jpg)

Funny combination of the old and the modern there, in the fortress. These stairs are ~500 years old.

(http://cs540101.vk.me/c622523/v622523724/137f4/M-GNWajaTJw.jpg)

Those pincers attracted my attention. They look surprisingly good despite being 1000 years old.

My hand is too big for the 10th century sword.

(http://cs540101.vk.me/c622523/v622523724/137fd/rmKHBi7IAVo.jpg)

These two are the stamps used by the local bureaucrats. The trident is from the 13th century, the Virgin Mary icon is 200 years older.

(http://i.imgur.com/aonCqNY.jpg?1) (http://i.imgur.com/rJBLvhO.jpg?1)

It is not a model, it's a working phone in the local souvenir shop.

This is the symbol of the Ruruk's dynasty (Rurik is sorta founder of Russia).

(http://i.imgur.com/aWu40nW.jpg?1)

It is surprisingly popular between protesters in today's Ukraine.

Hope that wasn't the worst 30 seconds of your day. Thank you for your attention.

P.s. I've spent the whole day under the influence of various substances. Feel free to report this to the authorities.

Had to go restart my unemployment claim today.  Had to type on a WYSE rubber dome board.  I had so many mistakes it was unreal.  That thing was total torture.  I almost would have rather used an on screen keyboard with a mouse.

I successfully remapped the number pad on my XT to a pseudo navigation cluster/arrow keys with a windows key, wake, and sleep key.  Thanks spamray for the link to wcass's explanation for dummies on how to go about that.  If I get around to it I will post the layout later.

If you just want the switches, you could just put the solder gun on the solder, heat it up, and pull, and eventually between the 2 pins, it will come out.

When I didn't have a solder wick, thats what I did, but I also ended up burning the PCB board, so, take it with a grain of salt if you want to keep the PCB.

Attempted to desolder a wyse board , burnt myself twice , killed my 2� desolder pump , only 1/3 of the job done . That's ok I guess ...
If you just want the switches, you could just put the solder gun on the solder, heat it up, and pull, and eventually between the 2 pins, it will come out.
Interesting I'll try it .
When I didn't have a solder wick, thats what I did, but I also ended up burning the PCB board, so, take it with a grain of salt if you want to keep the PCB.
Don't care about pcb , so that's fine .
Vintage black harvesting I assume?
yep preping the switches that will go on the RedScarf III.
Are vintage blacks really that good? I have only ever tried 1 black switch, and they feel fine as they are.

 nope

I successfully remapped the number pad on my XT to a pseudo navigation cluster/arrow keys with a windows key, wake, and sleep key.  Thanks spamray for the link to wcass's explanation for dummies on how to go about that.  If I get around to it I will post the layout later.
Sweet. Glad you got somewhere with that. Sorry I didn't have time to help. :)

All good Swill.  I totally understand the reason for your lack of spare time.  Keep at what is important to you.

Here is a image of what I changed on my layout.  Everything that is blank is default.

[attach=1]

Edit:  Funny thing though.  The hardest part about getting used to this keyboard isn't anything with the physical layout or the switches.  It is the fact that there is nothing for homing on the F and J keys.

the main filter in the boiler room is the only kind you can buy.

They don't make the right size ones for upstairs vents...  So you gotta diy...

considered taking my midi keyboard apart and making a typing keyboard with the switches for the luls, then I remembered that I don't remember where the soldering iron is and I can't print my own PCBs, and velocity would be useless for a typing keyboard. Interesting thing to try, though, once I have the stuff and am more experienced with that kind of thing

It gets like that, and you have to balance whether to buy them a little something first (then they want to go hmoe and eat/play with it), or afterwards (then why nag to to finish shopping and get them something NOW).

Went Christmas shopping with my daughter on Saturday, she received a couple of gift vouchers.  Actually I ended up getting nearly as much as she did :))

Brother, I suffer from really bad migraines.  I'd be happy to help. You can pm me. Some of the things that work for people are: hot shower, hot compress on head or back of neck, or cold compress, eating ice cream, caffeine accelerates other drugs like your paracetamol, head massage.

I've spent the past hour copying...

3 measures of In The Court Of The Crimson King

the song is ~75 bpm 4/4 at ~9 minutes long, meaning it's about 168 measures long.

I have spent an hour getting 1.7% of the song into the tracker

god, copy covering is the one thing where I really think it might actually be faster to use a pianoroll than a tracker.

That sounds a lot better than the programs that do MIDI conversions.

Because I'm manually optimizing each sound to what it would correspond to in the song so that it sounds as close as possible. I also stacked the pulse channels to create the strings.

We didn't either.  If anything, I was once forced to throw up at school.  (story in spoiler tags in case people don't want to read it)

We had lunch ladies in 1st grade that *made* you eat all of your food, even if you didn't want to.  Because they know best, of course.  I wasn't feeling well one day, and they forced me to eat extra food I didn't want and made me drink my fruit punch juice, despite my insistence that I felt sick.

About 10 minutes later as I was walking through the halls, I projectile vomited all over the floor in the hallway.  Then I went out to recess.

Celebrated my birthday with some friends. We did a beer tasting and the eat some melted cheese with bread. That's a dish called "fondue" for those who heard about it. You mix up white wine, garlic, different sort of cheese. You heat everything up until it all melts together. Then you use long forks to pin the bread and dip it in the melted mix. It is so delicious! You should try it if you have the opportunity to do so.

   All I had was skim milk so adding some chocolate chip flavored creamer made it better.

I had a nice four mile walk and then some ramen at Kinton Ramen. Now I'm having a subpar beer from Poland. If you see Zubr at your local beer shop, pass it up.

in my days, schools hadn't puke policies!

We didn't either.  If anything, I was once forced to throw up at school.  (story in spoiler tags in case people don't want to read it)

We had lunch ladies in 1st grade that *made* you eat all of your food, even if you didn't want to.  Because they know best, of course.  I wasn't feeling well one day, and they forced me to eat extra food I didn't want and made me drink my fruit punch juice, despite my insistence that I felt sick.

About 10 minutes later as I was walking through the halls, I projectile vomited all over the floor in the hallway.  Then I went out to recess.
you should have told that lunch lady that you live in a FREE country!

Jimmy Johns and a frolf disk that is still missing. I also learned that some people should not be put in charge of leading a group just because they think they know where we're going.

Paid off another student loan, but realized that the principal is higher on one loan by about $5-6k than I though it was.  Now I'm off track for my 18 month repayment of $30k in loans and it's looking like it will be another year.  That or I move out and it takes another 10-20 years to pay off.

I don't get the stigma behind living at home. It's a good financial decision, since you don't have to pay for where you live.

Good luck paying off the rest of your loans dude.

They also lost most of their climbing ability around the time they got them bigger hips.

Too much lower-body weight relative to the normal feminine weak upper-body arms.

Worked the entire day picking orders from the shop for our online store. The sale has started this weekend so I was selected to focus solely on collecting everything.
It did give me a good view of what is on sale right now so I already hid some stuff for myself for later.

I rolled out my back on a lacrosse ball for 30 minutes. The pain was excruciating. 1st world problems.

I tweaked my back running and I think this is partly due to the fact that I have been practicing yoga a lot and I have slight scoliosis in my upper spine. I think the Yoga has loosened some of the muscles of the spinal column as the yoga practice is shifting things back into alignment. And then when I ran... All hell broke loose. 1st world problems I know. But the pain is REAL.

Got paid for a 9 hour shift to come into work and basically play Street Fighter for 45 minutes before going home. Found out I'm being considered for another promotion. Stopped by the Pawn shop and picked up a few games for a steal (see link below.) Now I'm about to smoke a cone of White Fire Alien OG and it's only 1pm!

Thank you. I've been living in one country for too many years eventually getting bored and thinking about something new, and then, all of a sudden, Boom! Crimea! Sanctions! Recession! Rouble is kill! SUDDENLY job offer! So I'm going there to steal a jerb. Also I wouldn't mind having a EEA member passport. UK by itself isn't very appealing to me.
Also might I ask, why did you move to Canada?

Also might I ask, why did you move to Canada?

I have been dating a young lady in Canada for a while now and we wanted to be in one place. She was heartily opposed to living in the US (especially where I was) and I have always wanted to try living somewhere else. Canada, honestly, isn't all that different from the US. Healthcare is a bit different (obviously), ketchup is considerably worse here, but otherwise it's all basically the same. Everything is more expensive and they pretend to use the metric system.

Sorry. (still getting used to saying that after everything)

Again, best of luck getting there! It's exciting/terrifying/fun moving to another country. By the way, one of my friends who left for the Netherlands a few years ago sent me a link going over the four stages of living abroad: http://www.overseas-exile.com/2013/03/the-four-stages-of-expat-life.html

I've honestly kind of been through this since I've been back and forth to Canada a LOT over the last few years (and lived here off and on a bit), so it's nothing too shocking to me, but it's real. I did go through a bit of this in very abbreviated ways. Good to at least be aware of.

It was a surprisingly realistic action movie. I found it refreshing to see them run out of bullets and the lack of exploding cars made me sit straight up in my seat.
Some really good fight scenes though. Is it a comic book film by any chance? Because it sure felt a bit like it. Some sort of melancholic undertone that the die-hard action movie crowd might not like.

Poutine is love. Poutine is life.

The metric system stuff kills me. If you ask a Canadian how cold it is outside, they'll tell you in Celsius. If you ask them how far it is to something, they'll tell you in minutes (WTF!?). And if you ask them how tall they are, they'll tell you in feet and inches. Weirdos.

Also, thank you for the well wishes.

my future homesickness would be easily cured by two days back in russia (Attachment Link)

I lived in China for 13 years. Funny how it made me appreciate my own country so much more. I'm sure it's the same for you. Good luck!
i'm just kidding. thank you.

Ah, okay, I feel dumb. I thought you really liked Russia?!

please stop feeling dumb immediately :p
It would be difficult for me to leave my gorgeous, fabulous, one of a kind hometown. A little relief is that it will happen in winter, when the weather is harsh, the beach season is over, and I can't sit on the river bank lazily drinking champagne watching as the ships go by in the ever changing lights off the Troitskiy bridge.

If you ask them how far it is to something, they'll tell you in minutes (WTF!?).

We do this all the time in the midwest.  I'm not sure if it's common elsewhere though. 

It makes so much sense though.  If something is 10 miles away on back country roads going through tiny towns, it'll take you 30 minutes to get there.  If it's 10 miles away on the freeway, it'll take you 10 minutes.  Wouldn't you want to know how long it would take you to get there, rather than how many miles you'll be putting on your car?

See, that's the thing. The problem is two fold. It assumes:


In other words, giving me a travel time rather than distance does me little to no good. I would much rather know that I have to travel x kilometers or miles. So much more useful. From there, I can do my own calculations based on variables that you may not be aware of.

Anyway. On the topic of subjectivity, the other thing that kills me here is the insistence on using "wind chill" as the ultimate measure of temperature. So you always know how fast the wind will be blowing, eh? GOOD JOB, GOD.

Where are you from originally?

Because in cold climates, wind chill is incredibly important.  It doesn't matter that the air temperature is 0 degF, what matters is that it will feel like it's -20 degF when you're in the wind.  You plan for that, and it's a happy accident when the wind isn't blowing.

And sure, if there's a chance you'd walk somewhere then time isn't helpful.  If you're in a big city, that wouldn't make as much sense.  But when everywhere you're going is by car, time is far more useful, because you know that the person will be travelling by car.  And you'd need to explain to them the speed limits on all the roads they'd take in order for them to calculate distance / speed to figure out time...   :confused:

Exactly. I was cycling back home from work today and had a nice headwind. It's just below freezing here and with a 90% humidity (because we are so close to the sea) and with wind speeds at 29-38 Km/h the cold was giving me a headache. Granted, I wasn't wearing a beanie or anything because I hate wearing anything on my head but I needed wool sweater + down jacket + wind/waterproof shell to keep warm.
But for my hands a simple windproof pair of gloves was just fine.

We've had friends from Russia over last winter and even thought they came from -30C temperatures, they were absolutely freezing to the point that we had to go back home and give them some of our clothing. Humidity + wind = cold & miserable if you are not prepared.

As to the whole distance thing. Inside of the city I would use Km but on the highway time is much easier. I have no idea how far it is to Amsterdam from here but I do know it is something like 45 mins. Going there tomorrow. :cool:

Inside of the city 7 Km probably gets you something like this:
- 20 mins by tram (If you catch it on time, otherwise +10)
- 30 mins by bus
- 25 mins by bike (for me, my sister f.e. will take 40 mind)
- 25 mins by car + time to find a parking spot
- 1,5 hours walking :D

Made some crude wrist wrests for my HHKB and Poker, but I plan on working on them some more tomorrow to give them some curve, and flatten them out as they are now warped for some reason, and straighten out where I curved a little bit. Once I get them to the shape I want, I plan on staining them probably blue or something.

Let them sit in the room you plan on using them in for a few week to a month or so.  The reason they start warping is because the moisture content starts changing and it does so fastest on cut edges especially end grain.

Makes sense, I also placed them under running water to clean off the garage dirt, and now that they have started drying, they aren't nearly as wobbly and curved.

those were the siberians, i guess? they always require care in the winter cold.

i cycle in temperatures down to -20. wind chill is not as important as the wind's ability to move, considering that you wear modern windproof clothes.

Hoff, I'm from the midwest. I'm used to cold. I'm used to wind. And I'm used to getting to anything I need by car. However, I like standards. I want to know ambient temperature, because wind isn't constant. I know how to compute for wind chill in my head. Is it 10F out? Okay, so, layers!

And for getting places, yeah. I'm in a giant city now. I am going to walk or take the metro. Driving is a pointless endeavor and too costly. So telling me how long it is to somewhere is useless. Walking is dependent upon so many factors. And the metro? A freaking joke in this city. A serious and sad joke.

Anyway. I'll stop ranting a bit.

Got the garage in our new house ready for epoxy floors. Degreased, washed, and acid etched the first half. Will epoxy that half tomorrow. The wait 2 days to move everything over onto the new epoxy, and do the other half. Lots of work, but will be pretty sweet when I get done.

Been looking at new wheels for my car. I really want to buy some old Porsche alloys :(

What car do you have?

He has a MkII Golf.  ;)  and I'm jealous.  :))

I miss my 86 Jetta.  My spare-parts engine build was pretty mild compared to my MK1 GLI, but still made 50% more power than stock with same number of valves and displacement (and n/a still).  Was a fun car, sometimes I wish I didn't sell it to buy my BMW.

Today I put 800 rounds through a Ruger 10/22.  Didn't think I'd be able to do it in one day, but it only took 3 hours lol.

Today was a pretty lazy Sunday. Dusted out my tower. I went longer than I should have between cleanings so it was a bit surprising how much dust was there.

Shot my brother with an airsoft gun. haha
quality family time

I borrowed the gun from my youngest brother and this one didn't believe it would sting. It's roughly equivalent to a hornet or wasp. It was at his request, but being that I'm the oldest, I was going to do it anyway.

I'm a VW specialist mechanic, I see all kinds! One of our customers has a mint 92 Jetta 2-door that I'd buy in a heartbeat if she were ever to consider selling.  My MK1 GLI is a rare 2-door, my 86 was a 4-door but I allowed it because sleeper. :cool:

I had almost 300 rounds of my dad's old stuff that I burned through, then started in on a 500 box of ****ty Remington.  I didn't want to have to clean the gun twice after dirty Remington, so I just kept going lol.  10-round magazine got a lot of use.  It's too bad there's a shortage of 22LR, I'd rather not use dirty-ass ammunition again.

Oh wow! That was going to be my one question, if you used that stock 10rnd mag. I was thinking you were loading some aftermarket high capacity mag. What a pain in the fingers. The 10/22 is one of my favorite guns I own to shoot. It's really fun and quite accurate.

I hear that on the dirty remmington ammo.  I do have to give them credit where it is due.  I got about a thousand rounds from my dad after that ammo went through a flood and was underwater for about 3 weeks or so.  Not one missfire, jam, or anything from a Marlin semi-auto rifle.  All of it was .22LR.

Don't you ever say anything bad about Donnie Darko again! It's my favorite movie!

Oldest I've worked on was a '29 Buick, had to figure out wiring and repair a headlight switch.  Lots of Beetles and vans, though the Beetles have been going away.  I'm building a 40hp 1200cc Beetle engine right now, while a 2L van engine is also apart waiting for another case.  I can do 60-year-old engine rebuilds one day, and figure out electrical gremlins in a brand new car the next day, I'm never bored!

My dad has one of those 25rnd magazines, but it was all plastic and quite worn so I didn't want to chance it.  I brought it with me, but never loaded it.

There were 10 other 10/22's there today according to the range officer, all completely different.  The one I'm using is an old carbine with a little scope, one of the range officers said it was nice to see someone using an old basic one for a change, lol.  I did alright for my first time shooting rifle in easily 10 years (shotgun in that time), once I got used to the scope not being on center I could group ~1.5" diameter at 25yds.

I'm surprised you didn't have issues.  All of my Remington bullets spun in their casings. I Googled it before using any of them, apparently it's common and doesn't affect them (other than the mess).  Yours must not have been loose and allowed water to get in!  The only misfire I had today was a Philippine-made Ruko from probably the 90's, a few other Ruko's were lame but only the one misfire.

The Thunderbolts shot a lot straighter and more consistent than the old stuff I started with, but it was still not great.  I just finished cleaning the crap out of the everywhere, even the trigger assembly was full of grits.  The shooting table was covered in powder from the Remingtons, it was rather ridiculous.

I went to the grocery store for some pastas and I picked up my Novatouch as well.

Here are some pictures of it:

This is the box. You can see my daily driver on top of it. It is Azhdar Poker II w/ blacks, blank black PBT caps and a warlord
novelty.(http://i.imgur.com/mIhts8I.jpg) (http://i.imgur.com/mIhts8I.jpg)

The keyboard inside:

And the beautiful keyboard:
(http://i.imgur.com/zHxZ2kr.jpg) (http://i.imgur.com/zHxZ2kr.jpg)

This the bopomofo version that I bought from Ascaii on DT. I must say that I like a lot these caracters below the latin alphabet. Even though I can't understand any of them it is really nice.

Regarding the Topre switches as it my first time with them, I must say that I'm quite surprised. At first when I opened the box I hastily pressed some keys and I was like "mehhh, is that all what this fuss is about?". However after plugging it in my computer and writing this post I must say that I start to grasp it. The transition between the black and the Topre are hurting my fingers! I was not used to bottom that much anymore. The bottom out is quite hard on the finger, I feel the shock in them. I guess I must learn to apply just the required force and not more. The ABS keys feel different from my wasd set. This one feels less smooth. I feel as it grips my fingers. I also switched from an ISO layout to the ANSI one. Too much beautiful keycaps set for me to pass on.

Negative. While fastening down the CPU cooler, I harmed the bus lines in between the RAM slots and CPU making 2 slots unusable. Still have 16GB available from my other slots.

Ultimately my fault for tightening down too much but why would anyone run bus lines where a screw will be tightened down boggles my mind.  :blank:   :blank:   :blank:

Or print a little tool organizer for when I'm cleaning my game cartridges.

I tried cleaning my car using this new Citrus Power cleaner I have which is meant to power through grime and stuff, and seeing as we;ve had like 3 weeks of salted roads, I thought I would give it a shot.

I have used 750ml of a Ł10 1l bottle in one wash. **** these roads, I want to move to Australia and take my car with me.

Got a chance to put the reel my dad got me for christmas (http://www.pfluegerfishing.com/Pflueger%C2%AE-Patriarch-Spinning-Reel/1280290,default,pd.html#start=1)(its the 9525) on the rod I got for Fathers day a few years ago from the wife.  That is a St. Croix, 6ft single piece fast action rod.  Heading out in the am to chase some trout.  Probably going to limit out by noon.

Thank you sir! They are indeed thin flakes of plastic. The grey base is two-part epoxy (like plastic).

I'm pretty much the French cliché. I love cheese so much that I eat some on breakfast, noone and for the dinner too. I'd like to put some everywhere I could but I need to decrease my consumption. It is not healthy to eat that much of it.


I'd like to make you some but it wouldn't be as good once you'll receive it  :)) .

Yeah cafes are really into the french culture and it is not something that you find a lot elsewhere (AFAIK). Pretty much like the pub in UK. French bars don't have the same cosy/welcoming, social atmosphere
that pubs have.


Don't eat croissants that often you'll get fat quick otherwise :D. French pastries are really nice but quite rich thus one sometimes is always nice have.

Cheese is good, I think you are just doing a fine job being a real human bean. If I had it my way, cheese would be my diet. That and various sorts of bread with soft insides and rough crusts, I love those. But that is no healthy way to live.

Actually I'll see if I have the opportunity to put some cheese vacuum packed. I'll make an experiment to see how long it last. If the experiment is successful. You may receive some packages full of tasty joy!

Oh yeah man, so do I. I'm part of a local association that put you in relation with local farmers. One of them do fully organic bread whose flour has been crushed using a mill like in old time. He uses many different type of flour, some with nuts or fruits. At the end you get a 2 pounds bread with a crusty crust and a soft inside which smells so nice. I let you imagine how wonderful it tastes. Plain or with some salty butter ... Just so good.

oh my, I mean we have a few markets here but most of the bread is the weird-crusted north american kind that is too popular here, I really wish I could have some good bread like that once in a while... only way to get it here, though, is either to make it yourself of go to the nearby food-store-place, which has a bakery and butcher inside it, and I don't really like their bread much.

Actually I'll see if I have the opportunity to put some cheese vacuum packed. I'll make an experiment to see how long it last. If the experiment is successful. You may receive some packages full of tasty joy!

Oh yeah man, so do I. I'm part of a local association that put you in relation with local farmers. One of them do fully organic bread whose flour has been crushed using a mill like in old time. He uses many different type of flour, some with nuts or fruits. At the end you get a 2 pounds bread with a crusty crust and a soft inside which smells so nice. I let you imagine how wonderful it tastes. Plain or with some salty butter ... Just so good.

So cruel...  @.@

I'm moving to Lyon. Going to get hired by our French counterparts and live the good life like you are @.@.

Haha that'd be fun. I'm starting my own company so maybe in a while we will be recruiting ... I put that here with no interest at all of course.

I have been doing crepes with my girlfriend yesterday. French cheese (Comté), goat cheese, greek cheese (feta), some italian pastrami and some french ham. Damn that was nice! We ate the rest of the crepes this morning with some mushed bananas and hot melted chocolate. Yummy!

I'm really jealous.  I love crepes.  :D  Yours sound delicious with all those cheeses.   ^-^


I'm pretty much the French cliché. I love cheese so much that I eat some on breakfast, noone and for the dinner too. I'd like to put some everywhere I could but I need to decrease my consumption. It is not healthy to eat that much of it.


I'd like to make you some but it wouldn't be as good once you'll receive it  :)) .

Visited Paris last summer; my wife and I love it...especially the cuisine. I wish there were cafes here where I can just stand and have a croissant and espresso on my way to work every morning!


Yeah cafes are really into the french culture and it is not something that you find a lot elsewhere (AFAIK). Pretty much like the pub in UK. French bars don't have the same cosy/welcoming, social atmosphere
that pubs have.


Don't eat croissants that often you'll get fat quick otherwise :D. French pastries are really nice but quite rich thus one sometimes is always nice have.


What did you think about the Parisians?

I like how they walk fast and are pretty much all business to folks they don't know.   But they seem to deeply engage in relationship with their loved ones, art, food, and culture. Cool.

That's one way to see it. I thought people had a worse point of view on Parisians.

oh my, I mean we have a few markets here but most of the bread is the weird-crusted north american kind that is too popular here, I really wish I could have some good bread like that once in a while... only way to get it here, though, is either to make it yourself of go to the nearby food-store-place, which has a bakery and butcher inside it, and I don't really like their bread much. Almost always stale by the time you go to buy it, too...

Yeah I feel you. I've been to the US, UK and even if I went to organic shop which made their own bread the crust was always soft. I don't know if it is due to the bacteria they use for the bread.

If the experiment that I want to run with Hoff works, I may try to do the same with some bread of my local farmer. You'd have your own packages of tasty joy .

The only thing I am afraid of is your Customs. AFAIK you cannot import cheese made with raw milk in USA. That's why you only find cheddar-like cheese. That'd be a pity that your package end up in a bin .

I didn't think it was cruel. It would have been the same if I said that it was awesome because he can only trust me so far.

Well, really, the bakery at the local store gets it sort of close, but they rush to make lots of bread every day and they focus a bit more on english and american breads, to make them not taste repulsive (and, admittedly, they do a good job at that), but bread is always stale when you buy it there. Honestly I think I could make it myself and do a better job and I've only made soft-innard crumbly-crust bread before, the kind more common in english regions of canada. Also good with butter but still not the best I've had by far.

A friend of mine who's a cuisine chef in Barcelona cooked my girlfriend and I a few days old croissant. It cut the croissant in half, put some Spanish cheese in between the two parts. Added some stuff to it. Put it in the hoven and then enjoy. It seems quite simple like this but it was so good. I was quite surprise!

Not only has he put something that is closely associated with the Nazis that they used to describe non-aryans, but he's spelt it wrong. He's put "Unteremensch".

Knowing him, he probably meant it in the way it was used by the Nazis. Because he's a ****ing idiot. However I don't know if he's doing it to describe himself because he's a bit of a weirdo, or if he's directing it towards someone else. I have no idea.

But it's still inappropriate for the workplace regardless.

In Europe I know you can find bread hoven for amateur. Something like that (http://www.amazon.fr/Moulinex-OW610100-Machine-Pain-1650/dp/B00B7FCRGC/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1422747354&sr=8-6&keywords=four+%C3%A0+pain). You just have to cook the mix for the bread and the machine does everything else. I don't know if you can find it in the USA. It is not the same as a real bread made by a french baker but it is a good start.

Canada was too cold. Moving to the sun.

Actually, the place we are (for another 15ish hours) isn't ideal for either of us, so we're moving nearer work and stuff downtown. I knew I was going to be moving again, so I only unpacked my computer stuff and some clothing. My stuff has all stayed packed. It's her stuff we're packing. And there is soooooooooooo much of it.

THEN I WILL NEVER MOVE AGAIN.

Ironing them flat helps them not interfere. I didn't use it other than to make sure the domes were lined up and all the keys registered I'll know more in the coming week when I use it with my type-s.

Found some incredible free softsynths that kinda made me drool a bit.

The catch?

win32 VST, every single one of them. And it just so happens that I can't get the win32 bridge for Carla working. Currently trying to get dssi-vst working as a bridge.

nevermind that last part, got carla's win32 vst bridge working.

I got to use floppy disks at work, in an attempt to fix one of our most antiquated servers (Pentium III w/ Win2k).

Turned out I didn't need them, I just had to disable the antivirus program (apparently the filter driver was corrupted, and was the cause of the constant system failures).

un-bricked my desktop. Still not useful (I/O errors when trying to perform disk ops in most regions, and still refusing a lot of USB stuff) but at least it can connect to the internet and boot one of my games again now. It's torturous to use that laptop because I pretty much have to be laying in bed, which gets uncomfortable pretty much instantly, so I'm glad I can at least browse the interwebs comfortably again.

Off the device or off your hard drive? If off your hard drive you can try using Recuva to get some back. Depending on how the device deletes, you might be able to recover some from it. I've used Recuva to great success on quite a few occasions involving accidental deletes on my HDD, and some varying degrees of success on mobile devices. Haven't tried any other recovery software.

it's not too bad. not saying that it's a real bad thing to use 8.1 over 7. in fact, I'm able to flash my board in 8.1! Weird that I can't do it in 7.

+1 if you take the time and have the mental energy to learn it well, I think you will like it. Also I've found it runs a bit faster than 7 on the same hardware.

it's alright. been using it in my office for like a year now. and yes it does boot faster with the same hardware. windows aero (in my own desktop) I'll miss you.

With it installed in your desk, it makes much more sense now. Nice job :). Do you plan on making a top or making a routing channel for the cable?

And a small percentage of our fleet is still running P4s...

Ideally, that percentage should be zero...

Hopefully we will be switching over to a completely virtualized environment in the not-so-distant future... the server hardware is already in place for it...

Fun fact, I was installing / updating Windows XP on a P4 HT yesterday. Thankfully the PSU failed and since it was a SFF machine, the PSU replacement was worth more than the machine.

Thin-client environments give me nightmares to this day...
P2V of servers is awesome though. Hopefully it works out for you and the P4s go away.

Another fun fact: I've been re-purposing many of our old P4s into "thin clients" (though there's nothing "thin" about them) for the past week or so...

Lubuntu 14.10, and Remmina. They will do for running a +/- 50kbps Remote Desktop session... and save us the money of having to purchase more "legit" thin clients...

Today I went to a Portuguese wine visit/tasting with the girlfriend. Damn they were exquisite! We bought one of their best year bottle, 2011. $60 the bottle but it is worth every pennies however once it is opened you have to drink it in the next 2 days.

It is a Portuguese type of wine called Porto. It has 20° alcohol and I bought it to a small producer in the countryside when I visited his operation. If you are curious it is: Quinta do tedo, vintage 2011. It is delicious and they ship worldwide .

No, actually the first encounter ended really well. The others just got me free drinks, there is now an entire frat that calls me Jeoffrey.

No joke, it will.  I have an iPhone and Android tablet, and something as simple as typing trips me up every time.  iPhone backspace is upper right, Android backspace is lower right (where 'return' is on iPhone).  Ugh.  Hate switching between them!

Note: there might be some new keyboard change I can make that would fix this, but I haven't bothered to look into it.   :cool:

Ugh don't remind me, I often have to check how apps look on iPhone when I'm coding the Android equivalent and it does my head in using iPhones after so many years on Android. Can never seem to remember how to go back so I always wind up just hitting the home button.

On topic - today I went to work at 5am because I couldn't sleep, just got home so I'm relaxing on the couch with the air con running full blast. Damn hot day.

Ran into a seagull that wasn't fast enough this morning, grill goosed its tail feathers then it sped up a bunch and flew higher.  Jackass seagulls, lol.

Discovered a giant window in a Mini's transmission.  I knew they're fragile as f***, but not so much in the self-ejecting-parts department.

Then I pulled a VW Vanagon engine out and stripped it to the case. Tomorrow I bust open the case and start cleaning/machining.

Just another day at work, nothing too abnormal.

But surely they would know you live in the land of Rus. If you get the job, the work Visa will no doubt be sorted out by them. I would want them to sort it for me too, seeing as I have absolutely no idea how the US immigration policy works.

i've read reviews with excerpts of it and wow, what a horribly written book. also, apparently it's twilight fanfic and parts taken from a twilight parody.

Terrible day. About midday I started having some really chronic back pains, could barely move and I started going in and out of consciousness from the pain. By the time I got to the hospital I had lost the feeling in my arms and legs and this kicked off the worst anxiety attack I've ever had, doctors had to give me a morphine cap to get me to sleep and breathe normally. Once I woke up they basically brushed the whole thing off as an anxiety attack and said there was no point x-raying my back because it was 'probably muscular'.

****ing thanks doc, if my back is so ****ed it causes me to pass out you'd think you could actually spend a bit of time trying to diagnose it instead of just brushing me off.

Drives me nuts, I'm the last person to go to the doctors for no reason.

Had a conversation with a new acquaintance about my life up to this point and ended up self enlightening the crap out of myself. I honestly think I grew up a bit today, possibly a step closer to considering myself an adult.

Put my hand in my pocket to get something out that is not relevant to the story and caught the end of my finger, along the side of the nail, in a loop of loose thread therein.

It dug in and cut the end of my finger next to the nail.

Stung a bit, I put a band aid on it.

Now I can't type properly 'cause I'm worried it will start bleeding again on my keyboard.

This is why we need more Pocket Danger Awareness (PDA).  I'm sorry you had to go through that, and I hope you get better (and don't bleed on the keyboard too much :eek: ).

It's alright. The recruitment process is strange. They don't always recruit, so your application is pretty much pot luck. You register your interest, then when they are actively recruiting they will send you a message asking if you are interested (which you kind of already said you were) then they do phone interviews, then face to face interviews and fitness tests and psych tests and then you might be able to get in depending on if you speak another language or can read peoples minds.

So even me registering interest now means I might not get a call back for another 6 months.

Installed black oxide coated counter sunk screws in my JD40

Got my XT top plate cooking in an electrolysis bath.  Bottom plate was perfect but top had some chipping paint.  It needed a mat swap anyway.

Installed a swinging baby gate at the new house.

She's definitely not ugly. I think what's most attractive about a woman is her character and aura, and she's definitely an attractive woman in that right (also, for her age)!

Very cool. Do you know what department you would be in?

Technical support, but hey it's full-time non-contract ;)


Nice, good luck! I am sure it is much easier to move around the company once you are inside!

That's exactly what I'm hoping. This is my foot in the door after 10 months of ***** work for other companies.

I realised that if I was to have a decent night's sleep before work, I would get 2 hours awake per day. As it is I get 4, and one of those is spent in the gym.

What is the point in working so much?

I would sleep for 8, wake up, then be awake for 2 hours before having to go to work. I then come back from work, have food, and go straight to sleep.

Plans? Just as planned. Monday night I will be in the UK.

Where abouts? If you are anywhere near the midlands, hit me up!

In other news, I really, really like greys...
Congrats on the greys. I'll be far away from Midlands though :(

That sucks :( Is this for a new job though?
Yeah, I will start working the next morning

what I did today was not particularly sfw so I'll try to skip on details...

As part of a bet a while ago I had to draw a guy naked and I spent a good chunk of my day adding muscle detail then he told me he didn't want muscle detail so I removed it all at the last minute. I had to un-realistic his arms and turn them into noodle arms too. It was kind of painful seeing my best drawing destroyed by the fact that I forgot what he wanted from it, and then yet still it's the best thing I've ever drawn.

But how many days a week do you work?  If you only work half the days out of a year, it's not such a bad gig.

Ordered a difficult to find game from Japan.

Took almost an entire month to get to my mailbox.

They sent me the limited edition by mistake.

File claim because I actually wanted the regular edition instead.

Refunded all my money and let me keep limited edition

Is also sending me the regular edition for free.

Mamoru-kun wa Norowarete Shimatta!

A Japanese shmup that has become difficult to find at reasonable prices. The Limited Edition went from selling for around $90 to selling for $300+ in the last few months. It plays a lot like Pocky and Rocky on the SNES if you are familiar with that series, it's a fun game.

I started to use a topre board, and my life has been changed. It's a nice snappy feel that distinguishes it from Cherry, but I still enjoy cherry as well. I really really really love the sound though. That was one of the reasons why I decided to get one.

Had a lot of numbers to type there... wow .. I am rambling.

My father stayed 3 months in the hospital a few years ago because he fell asleep while driving and struck head-on a big iron pole. Even after years has passed, he still has some injuries of it. Don't joke with that it can easily cost your life.


In a funnier context, it happened to me a few times to fell asleep at work in front of my computer. Once it even happened when someone from the R&D was teaching me something. It is just so boring when someone does everything on your computer and you are just here to watch.

booked 3 properties to view. at 11:00 a real estate agent called me to tell that 2 of those properties are already rented. he offered me to view another apartment at 1:00. i agreed. at 12:15 he called again and told that it's already gone too. so instead of 3 viewings i had 1.

booked 3 more viewings.

Don't you like Brewdog Punk? Hardcore Punk?


I taste a belhaven IPA a few weeks it was nice actually. Not the best but definitely not the worst.


Belgium is good for beers. In the IPA there is the Bitter XXX which is nice.
Title: Re: What did you do today?
Post by: pexon on Thu, 26 February 2015, 16:23:17
I love Bewdog, their Punk IPA is really easy to drink. They make a lot of different styles, I love their Porter style beers. I had one of their 'Libertine Black Ales' last week, stunning beer that, was hoppy/ IPA style combined with a Porter finish, very nice indeed.

Belhaven is OK, its an English style IPA, not a massive fan, its similar to Greene King.

Belgium is awesome for beers, I love Trappist beers, especially brown tripel Trappist styles!  8)

Yeah I really liked the Libertine Black Ale. It is just really nice. So smooth in mouth with the bitter taste of an IPA. It was really surprising the first time I drank it. Have you tried their "Tokyo"? It is a 18° beer which is dark like gasoline and very rich in flavor.


We have a shop near my town called "1001 beers", I'm sure you'd like it. They are close to their name, they have ~900 different beers.


If you like the IPA, the brewery "Mikkeller" does some really nice, like the Green Gold. If you don't know them, I advise you to try them if you can get some. ;)

Not tried Tokyo, I will have a look at their site and see if I can get one ordered.

I'd love to have a shop like that over in Shropshire, I'd never be out if it! I was spoiled rotten when I went to see my friend in London last month, there was a bar called' Jolly Butcher' that was a specialist in craft beer, so many awesome IPAs, Bosko IPA, omg so good:- http://pressuredropbrewing.co.uk/portfolio-item/bosko/

Will see if I can get some Green Gold too :)

I do sign up to a couple of ale drops, you pay a monthly fee and get a selection of 8 limited batch/ small run craft beers every month, its a great way of trying different styles and trying some really whacky beers

Never heard of the Bosko brewery. I'm curious now. :D


Yeah we have something similar here. It is called "Little smoke head" in french, I'm not sure about the translation though.


I don't think it is legal for me to send alcohol through the mail otherwise I could have made you a little parcel of my personal favorite. ;) Well I'm not sure about it, I'll check that out. Perhaps I can.

"How tall are you?"
or (less common, but still correct)
"What is your height?"

Makes sense. That explains legalization and sweeping gay rights in the country.

She hasn't ever used an actual computer at home, just a phone or tablet but as I was telling her where to put caps she grabs a few letters and is like I know where these go, I was like how do you know, she goes because its just like the keyboard at school. Of course now she says she needs her own keyboard, although I'm not for sure what for, guess I could hook it up to her nexus 7.

Friday: went to Penarth so see properties. It's on a ****ing high hill. And the wind was really against me visiting the town, so I barely climbed there on the lowest possible gear of my road bike. Saw a lovely house there, but it's too far away from my work. Going to a viewing though steep ascents, noticed I got a flat tire. Nevertheless, I didn't die and was at all the appointments on time.

Friday night: went to a British pub for the first time. Noise level 100dB. All the Russian guys said beer there (and in other pubs where they were) was **** lol. Met some Brits from outside Cardiff, one of them told me that London is great and I should visit it, another one said it's ****. I agree with both of them.

Today: viewed a bunch of apartments. Found one that more or less suits me. It's in a refurbished bakery and flour mill with old columns and rebars right in a flat. But it's ****ing expensive.

Went to see a couple of flats in the morning. One of them was very good. Then went to work to do some routine, then quickly to the bank to set up an account. The charming female clerk in a headscarf probably liked me, because she also got me a credit card, even though this bank rejected to give it to my colleagues (because they weren't residents of the UK for 3 months).
Then I went to work and made a call to the letting agent saying I am ready to rent the good flat I've seen this morning. She said "all right, come tomorrow". 20 minutes later, when I was taking a ****, she called me again. I obviously didn't pick up the phone. So she left me a voice message. Out of the loo, I called my voicemail service, found out I have 4 messages (the agent's one being obviously the most recent) and started listening to them. Rrrrright at the end of the 3rd message my minutes allowance ended. I went to a store to top up the phone (I'm still on PAYG) only to hear in the last voice mail that someone actually paid a letting fee for the apartment in the morning, so it's gone and I can't rent it. What a lovely day!

As someone who had to go flat hunting in the center of a bigger city than Cardiff very recently, my advice is to book appointments for the same day and over book your day as a few will cancel.
Good luck in your hunt tho

Does it put a watermark on everything you save? There are ways around that if you need them. :shiftyeyes:

You can still have stuff made with the watermark, just can't make a profit on it.  This was my interpretation, though I could be wrong and it may be more like photographers copyrights where it is technically illegal to post them to facebook without express permission.

Went to a job fair in town.  Was talking to a couple people from a local company that makes ethanol.  Apparently the are looking for someone with pretty much my exact skill set.  After talking to the lady about the positions they are looking to fill, I started  talking to the guy that was there.  Keep in mind I have done a fair amount of work there in their facilities over the years for a local contractor  so I know the plants pretty well.  He asked me if I knew a guy that was a foreman for that contractor.  I had worked for him numerous times.  Apparently he quit that company and is down in TX now.

Either way I thanked them for their time, and told them both I would be filling out their application online.  A made another round to chat with some other companies there that were busy with other people previously.  One of them was across from this other company I was talking to.  After talking with them, the lady I was talking with earlier handed me her business card and told me to  email her personally after I filled out the application.   So I think that's a good sign.

It was Flint Hills Resources.  They have 4 facilities close enough to me I would drive to work from where I am at and they have an opening at 2 of them.  The closer one would actually cost me more gas due to more stops along the route.  But either way they pay well, provide uniforms with laundry service.  The uniforms are actually required because of company fire retardant policies.  Plus I have haven't smoked a cigarette in around 9 months and I think they are getting ready to go to a tobacco free property.

The Flint Hills around here bought out Hawkeye Renewable a few years ago.  On my vape, I am down to 0.3% now so pretty soon I will be totally done with it.  Not to worried about it even if vaporizers = cigarettes.

plus it has better lighting, which i dislike... i prefer dimly lit work spaces; makes it easier for me to concentrate...

and the lights aren't controlled per office, so i can't change the lighting situation unless i remove the bulbs...

they gave it to me specifically because they didn't want to give it to the other IT guy, who wanted to become my boss (but they didn't much care for that idea).

but, we are looking into moving the entire IT Helpdesk area to another part of the office, so it might only be temporary...

(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/03/07/20856e81a8733a55089c8ad153d8242f.jpg)

Playing some vintage computer games for the first time. Jungle Hunt on the Apple II Plus. Keyboard is linear. Short throw. Pretty smooth. Alligators are *******s.

(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/03/07/69af4076b780e072bbd515a6fe74a3de.jpg)
(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/03/07/15708cf2cc6c99e459c4d8e0d03b2d11.jpg)

Centipede on an atari 800. This ****ing profile is legendary. Sphericals. Thick. Linear switches but they're light with a cushiony bottom out.

(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/03/07/1e17eb58f02e2ce432ccb8fbdf7a520e.jpg)

Keyboard spotting: TRS80. Feels like MY =(

(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/03/07/fa81f7bb2c66192fdb15a0109a037fdb.jpg)

TI99/4A. The graphics are kinda weird but this game is fire. Alpiner. The voice made me laugh so much. Keyboard layout isn't bad. Switches are linear, short throw, kinda mushy. Not even 2KRO.

(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/03/07/9328df1e99d327be29b4807d531c6bed.jpg)

Atari 600 XL. The switches felt kinda like clears. Cushiony bottom out. But they're almost as light as Reds. And ULTRA short throw. Ms. Pac man is weird.

(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/03/07/c988474eeff4535c70726ac348fd5a57.jpg)
(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/03/07/f6548f32f2454f51bcaad72f4f51b847.jpg)

**** thunderstorms. Killing my lemonade Hustle. Apple IIGS with M0487. Rubber dome but they're on par with my DT35.

(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/03/07/15abe0c073ace1db2a7d8fe9a032e0c7.jpg)

Commodore 64. Awful keyboards. Feels too light compared to the look. Mushy...too bouncy. Linear though. Caps seem ok. This Jupiter Lander game is fun though. And the Atari like controller is fun.

(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/03/07/c74e4711692c244cc187e85a0f71e8b6.jpg)

Panasonic MSX2. Amazing color scheme. Orange on black with orange on Dolch gray alphas. Had this goofy arrow setup too. Switches felt like a refined Commodore 64 board. It was OK. The game was some form of Castlevania which was super fun though. Not even 2KRO.

(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/03/07/5e47c3514bf0abb907b0880f1232632d.jpg)

Oh hey. This is what retro DSA was based on right? Amstrad CPC464. DSA but more spherical. The switches are linear but actuate more on the bottom of the cap then on the top. Like a typewriter almost. A touch mushy but not bad. Amazing color scheme.

RIP YoungMike88. I'm sorry I forded a river that was too deep. Apple IIe with the best keyboard of the day. Linear. A bit short but extremely smooth. Light too.


(http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/03/07/9d85b1cddcd3027c60372f62b15591ae.jpg)

Atari 1200. Along with the Commodore, this is at the bottom of the pile. It's almost like there's no bottom out. Just land in a pile of butter. Ew. Mushy, no feedback at all.

The switches on the TI are probably either Stackpole or Futaba. TI used no less than four suppliers for the keyboards in those 99/4A's. If you can find an Alps made keyboard, the tee Alps aren't bad at all.

New Tumblr (updated artwork);

Will be updating it with The Best Of 2014 at some point, just gotta sort it out so I can post it... which I guess involves typing it all out QQ...


If anyone here is into electro, techo, house or dance music of any kind its worth checking out some of those lists to see if you missed any tracks!

Sorry dude.  We learned a little home remedy in China (we're not Chinese or even asian).  Called 柚子茶 (yo dzuh cha), it's citron tea.  Cures a ton of what ails you.  Put a tablespoon of it in a mug, fill it up with hot hot water, stir, and sip till it's gone (pulp and all).  Works wonders, especially sore throats and coughs.  You can get it at any asian market.

dude tried to move the trailer so people can pass.. on a hill. no chains.

truck got hit, but it could have been so much worse. just has a dent on the door. truck in front of me got a pretty big dent near the wheel well and the demo truck had it's bumper pushed it so much the wheel couldn't turn.

demo truck basically saved/****ed everything up. without it there it would have continued to go downhill and legit go straight into a house. but at the same time, the truck being there is the reason why my truck and the dude in front of me got hit, since it bounced off the **** into our trucks.

I dated a vegetarian once.  I don't have an issue with it IF there is a legit medical reason.  Other than than not going to deal with it.  If I was still in the dating world, that would be a deal breaker in an instant, and I don't care what level of vegetarian you are.  Not going to bash on it, I just won't put up with it.

dude was holding it up with this (http://cdn-4.psndealer.com/e2/dealersite/images/bigvalleytractor/S205Studio.jpg) to move it just a few feet. but he never chained it down. so when he moved he must have jerked the bob cat where the trailer became dislodged and bam, rest is history.

and their insurance is paying for it. he works for a pretty big company so they're insured. i felt bad for the dude tbh. kept saying how he was going to get fired. we were trying to get him to calm down. told us he's been working there for a year and this was his first accident. so i told him to look on the bright side, his company will see he's an over achiever. ****ing up 3 cars on his first accident lol

Post by: katushkin on Mon, 09 March 2015, 23:36:17
OH. I thought he had it hitched up to the back of the Bobcat. But he just lifted it up with the bucket? Probably some H&S breaches going on there =/ not his fault though probably.

That's alright then, wouldn't want the dent on your policy for something like that.

My RF is lubed (extra thick) and I didn't notice any change in tactility. It's a little quieter and a little smoother, especially when you hit keys off center there's less of that "sweeping" plastic-on-plastic noise. Its hard to truly quantify since Topre is so smooth to begin with.

Watched an episode of "It's OK, that's love." Not as bad as I thought it would be, might watch a few more episodes.

I had a job interview and the woman who interviewed me said "congratulations on your first job!" right after I sat down and I was like woo! Then the first interview question was "Are you at least 18?" and I told her no and then she brought the store manager over and he told me the orientation was during school hours so basically I have to wait until summer to go in for another interview  :'(

Context is a beautiful thing. I was on the motorway on New Year's Day at about 6:45 in the morning. As you would expect, there was nobody on the roads. It was cold but clear, with no ice to speak of. The speed limit on the gantries showed 40mph. I was doing 60 and got flashed by a speed camera but the ticket never came through. If it did, I too would have taken it to court because some lazy ****er had probably just fallen asleep on the "40" button in the control room.

At least if I end up with the ticket it's no points so no insurance increase. Illinois may be corrupt but at least they realize the cameras are crap.

Visited the local computer repair shop. I know the owner, so I occasionally stop by just to say hi. We talked about tech news for a while and I asked if he had any DDR2 RAM and he just gave me a few sticks since he has a bunch just lying around. I also got him to look out for any Buckling spring keyboards that he might come into contact with  :p  :thumb:

Technically I'm not allowed to say but I can tell you that the topic was kind of dumb and I didn't like writing about it. I'm not too worried though because I scored a 10 on the essay the last time I took the SAT's and my college combines highest scores.

Assuming you are going for a lengthy beard, don't give up. The first month is the worst. If it starts to look patchy, just keep going. Once it has some length it will look much better. And beard oil is the cure for an itchy, dry beard.

Phone interviews seem really weird to me. I have only ever had one job interview and I was successful. I've only ever had 3 jobs though, Pexon, working for my Dad and a small engineering job. Good luck though! :D

Today I learned that I never gave the Apple Aluminum keyboard enough credit.  It turns out that my (almost) 2 year old prefers that keyboard over all of my other keyboards.  Which of course is convenient since that is the only keyboard I own that I don't actually care if it works when I get it back.  I have to admit I was a little proud as he fell asleep clutching a keyboard.  Every time I went to take it he would wake up and grab it back.  Haha...  Too cute...

A bit of a stretch, as they do stuff to it so it is not fit for human consumption for obvious reasons.  Though the manufacturing process is fundamentally the same.  But I would be fixing the equipment instead of running it.  Going to be a lot of conveyor and fan work.

went thrifting, wasn't the magical experience I thought it would be. There were keyboards, yeah, but it was like, 3 of them. One was covered in some sort of feces-like substance, and a mysterious liquid, and had really mushy domes, and another was actually a really comfortable dome board, missing one of its keys (with a regular circular well, though, so I could've actually replaced that key. d'oh). other one was pretty much just a 2006 version of the exact board I'm typing on right now. but I did get a new purse (that doesn't suck, unlike my old purse), and a laptop bag

and then my good day was ruined by some issues in, eh, "play-time" with my significant other

They are the perfect size for a fullsize keyboard, even.  :)  They're very frequently recommended as ideal boxes for that use.  That's actually why I have any at all (and accidentally purchased too many, hence the box fort for the kids :)) ).

It's been dry this week. Sunny twice, but still cold :(

Looks like a nice weekend :)

I heard about the eclipse on Friday - bright clouds, followed by darker clouds, followed by brighter clouds :p

I was asleep :P

But yes, I heard the same. Exciting stuff.
what did i do on friday? watched the eclipse in the bright sky. that's just before its "peak".

Technically it was yesterday that I did this but I went to the so called Dealer Day from work.
All the various suppliers came together to show their latest products and I had a great time just talking to them.
So much so that I forgot there was a ton of stuff to do outside such as fly a drone, follow a trailrunning clinic and have a professional barber take care of my beard. :))

I have a ton of folder and business cards and a few items for my wishlist such as:
- Millican bags (http://www.homeofmillican.com/maverick-collection/smith-the-roll-pack-25l-slate.html) - Classic looking lightweigh hiking daypacks with all the functionality of a modern pack
- Lamzak (http://www.lamzac.nl/) - think of it as an inflatable fatboy beanbag
- Nigor tents (http://www.eurekaeurope.com/p/didis-2/nigor_tents?pp=136) - Can you say 2 person tunnel tent that can hold a 2m tall person with a huge vestibule for a little over 2 kg?

All in all a good day. :)

Whoa, where do you work?  It's like my dream job to just play with gear all day.
I work at one of the largest outdoor gear retailers in my country as a 'sales assistant'. So basically just a sales person. :P
But working there for close to 8 years has given me quite a bit of experience. Both firsthand and secondhand.

It's fun work, especially since it is one of the few sales jobs where people do come to you for advise.
And the discounts on gear and the opportunity to try out different stuff is great as well for someone highly interested in the technical workings of all this. :)

Ask me about tents, boots, clothing and general gizmos and chances are I can tell you a ton of stuff.
But my main interests are the combination of the technical and casual stuff. A dress jacket with Gore-Tex Pro Shell for example. :cool:

I had my over the phone technical interview today.  I didn't think it went that well and the interviewer told me I would hear something back in a week or two.  Got a call 5 hours later to schedule the on site face to face interview.  Apparently I did better than I thought.

I wouldn't want to work there full time as I need a certain amount of variety in my work but I will keep working there as long as I can.

I'm only an extra 3cm over 2m, so it's not that extreme, but tents are hard to find in proper length (except for 4-6 person tents :P ).  I'm actually in the market for a new tent, so advice would be welcome.  :)  I've seen Nemo (http://www.nemoequipment.com/shop/tents/) tents in one store, and they are actually quite good for taller people, since the sides near the bottom are near-vertical rather than sloping all the way down.  But if you have better recommendations, I'm all ears.   :thumb:

Do you mean BitTorrent as in the program? because thats not true, was using BitTorrent up until the last update (qTorrent now), BT has no problem with it, although KAT is blocked in the UK under VIrgin/BT/Sky its not too hard to find a proxy.

Did some gardening, involving pruning back a prickly bush that was preventing me from cutting a few branches from a tree, the branches having grown sufficiently to foul a cable coming into the house from the street, and to drum against the guttering in moderate winds.

In the process one of the thorns dragged across the soft and squishy side of my left pinky, leaving a small but bleeding scratch.

The ring finger on my other hand seems to have suffered a similar fate, although I didn't feel that one happening.

I'm still not sure about this outdoors thing, but some people seem to like it.

At least I didn't fall off the ladder!

Went to the library and goofed around in TinkerCAD.  I'm hoping I fixed the problems that were wrong with Alps adapters and the BS and Topre stems.  Also made some caps in TinkerCAD and I'll see how they work and if they're worth casting.  If they are, I plan on editing the master a little, reprinting it, then casting them.

Took three short after hours calls for my job, one of which was for two different people.  That means I'm getting paid for four hours at time and a half for about 15 minutes of work.  One of the few great perks of my job.

On Friday I went to the doctor and found out I have POTS.

Today I worked on teaching myself not to jump up and run off. I only did that and passed out in the floor twice. Not too bad for only a day's work.

Yep, I've been a car guy my whole life and grew up with the series. I also followed all the things Paul Walker did with charities around the world and his work in the tuner field. The world lost a great guy and the end tribute hit me hard.

It's also perfect that they had Dom talking from what I've heard they were closer than brothers. I can't imagine what he must have felt recording that scene.

AND got an email saying my set of full shine through gold zinc caps won't be fulfilled because of manufacturing issues. Got refunded a bit so I will get WASD and arrow shinethrough but I don't know if I can be bothered seeing as they are going on an RGB board. Really pissed me off actually.

You're lucky to get one in new small cars nowadays. Space savers are a luxury and full size spares are a hundred pound extra, if you ever get the option.

Quite a busy day!


Spent mine working on a server architecture I should setup for my company (I'm a co-CEO in my newly created company, hehe). 15hours work is tiring as ****.

Anyone go to this event? It's worldwide.

why would you go to the mall, just to stand in line for free icecream.. unless you were going to the mall already anyway..

but, why would anyone go to the mall, when they get amazon.com..

I saw a live-streamed interview and the new Star Wars teaser trailer in a movie theatre. It was somewhat underwhelming.
Last, I saw that the teaser had "Enjoy it in 3D" at the end, which made me very angry.

Eh, no. It is an oxidation process where the surface turns black, in order to protect it. It is done on classic guns. Some steel alloys get a bluish tint, others more purple.

Just for your healths sake, don't do the blueing in the house.  And it doesn't work on stainless, fair warning on that if you haven't come across that tidbit either.  It only works on carbon steels.  There are other methods for working with stainless.

Today, I worked on the car.  Got the front rotors and pads, spark plugs, plug wires, and oil changed.  Still hate doing plugs and wires on front wheel drive.  The one exception was a couple years of Caddilac that was front wheel drive but the engine was still in the RWD configuration.

I'm doing it on the balcony at least. I am doing a variant of the classic labour-intensive method. There is heat, but not nearly as much heat as a boiling salt bath, which is the prevailing industrial method.

I used to use cold-bluing liquids. Those are more nasty chemicals than the ones I am using now. The worst now is hydrogen peroxide, which many here have used for retr0bright.

Traded my blue stems and springs that I had removed from my one Dolch PCB, and I want to use blues on the main board, so I am now opening the switches on my other Dolch PCB to install them on the other one, as it has some minor mods that I like on there. But, when the clears come, I plan on buying 65g springs to give a different version of the ergoclear a go.

Had 3 hours sleep. Was woken at 11am by the estate agents asking for a load of documents to try and start the purchase process going but I need to get a solicitor, and of course, I'm not going to magic one up on a weekend... We will make good progress next week I hope.

At work now though until 8am again D:

On Record Store Day I bought three tapes and a DVD. I'm 100% sure I'm doing it right. Not pictured here is the re-issue of Metallica's No Life til Leather.

I never understood the whole beach thing..

You get up early... do all the packing... drive for like an hour... get dosed with all that radiation... eat something to cool to make up for the elevated cancer risk... then you have an hour to drive back while ur tired..you get home, oh gee, more unpacking....  THEN you gotta shower...

It's like going to work, but worse + cancer..

Heroin

I never understood why people do Heroin.
You lead a decrepit life only to escape into a worse life away from the grace of our Lord and Savior.
It's like trying to trading your life for nothing.

I thought you of all people would understand these sort of value assigned interactions.

After I finished working on cables around 6 got some prawn stir fry and had a nice hefenwiezen (Maisels Weisse). I jumped back in the workshop about 8 and got myself a monitor stand made up. As I only have a cheap Ikea desk, my monitor arms are biting into the desk and the monitors are starting to lean forward.

I made a simple stand (and will put the monitors back on the stock stands soon) to put the monitors on. I'm working on re-jigging my room a bit and my desk, pc, wires etc are a mess. Simple Ikea shelf, cheapo eBay 150mm table legs and some black vinyl wrap. 1 hour later, all the legs are screwed on solid, vinyl is laying perfectly (lots of heatgun work)!

I kept one of the V80s back for testing and I'm just using it stock at the moment, before I get some SA profile caps for it. Weirdly enjoying MX Browns, I never liked them, but its a change from linear switches and Topre  for a while  (please don't hate me).

Yea, starting to really like tactile again. I started out with a Choc Mini with blues, going back to mah roots. Going to put Geteron blue in my RS 84 and greens in my GH60.

I vinyl wrapped the shelf/ monitor stand with matte black, once I have everything finished, I will post some better pics up. EDIT:- also made a white LED strip for under shelf lighting :D

The trackball is awesome, I think I may dye/ wrap/ plastidip it black as I want all my peripherals in black. My Parvum case is cream and burgundy, so once I get my room sorted out, it will stand out like a sore thumb, which is good, cus the case is stunning

Im back to my second board, I've not given it a lot of love recently, but I thought I would go back to MX Browns instead of their Kailh cousins. I've reconsidered and there is a definite difference.

That sounds cool, what colour is the rest of the desk? Those cases are really awesome, I'm very jealous.

Wetsanded and polished my wheels, dropped them off with fresh tires for mounting/balancing.  Did a 3.3 mile run at the gym, and picked up my wheels on the way back to my shop.  I'm finally on my summer wheels now!  Then my buddy and I went to our local pub and watched the Canucks **** the bed.  Still a net positive day, which is great!

Just the original wheels from my car, staggered 17x7.5 and 8.5.  I've liked them enough for 5 years now to not spend money on replacing them yet.  I refinished the rears due to previous owner curbage, took way too long to fix.

Another productive day today. Got out to the range before the rain hit, used up a box of super ****ty 22lr ammo that I got last time (just fine at 25yd, but they start drawing 4" circles around the target at 50yds).  Hit the gym again, did another 3.3 miles at a faster maintained pace. Down to 202 lbs (from 230 at the start of the year) and fit nicely into 36W jeans (from 42W), so progress is awesome! :thumb:  Just had steak and salad, now it's time to read for my course (which I know most of anyways).

Chernobyl and Fukushima to try and better understand it all. It's amazing stuff, it really is. The power and energy involved and the physics is staggering. Even for pretty well established science its still pretty incredible that we are able to harness such immense power.
It's also so very sad to see all the people with agendas use these two examples as valid arguments against nuclear power. State ridiculous stats that are based on next to nothing, all in a bid to push more expensive, less efficient means of power generation that people then protest about being built.

Just walked a quarter mile to take the trash to the pickup location. I'm really out of shape.
Try gaining 80 lbs in less than 1 year and you will know what out of shape means.

Today I cleaned up one of my sotrages in my house. Felt great that I can actually use it as a wine cellar again  :thumb:

I gained 50 in about 10 months but sadly about half of it is blubber. I couldn't stay away from the carbs. Now I find myself needing cardio real bad.

Wow. Wtf did you eat? Ice cream and donuts before bed every night? I went from 30-36 and I think most of it was carb loading before bed, having cravings like a pregnant woman. :P

In the human case it's much worse, you drag out this "servitude part" for ~2-3 years, then add 2 more small-queens,  THEN drag that out for 18 more years,  THEN, witness the lack of social security,  prepare to sign up for food stamps and trading them in for adult-diapers...

In school today our teams of 2 became teams of 4 (3 in our case), and were told to diagnose 4 different vehicles with engine running problems. My group finished first in ~45 mins (would have been sooner, but we had to wait for other groups to finish with the next vehicle).  Then I got another 100% on our in-class tests.  Not a bad day!

That would be WRONG! Not ALL women think staches are gross... just most under 40 who didn't grow up with 'sex symbols' guys like Burt Reynolds and Tom Selleck... or chicks from places like Kazakhstan.

I sold one of my old PC today. Feels good getting rid of some clutter. I think I did alright getting $250 out of a 6 years old P55 system. I also sold a 32" Samsung HDTV I rescued from the dumpster for $75... sometimes craigslist just works out.

The mustache works like this...

There is such a thing as ideal facial geometry..

If your face is "spread outwards" from this setting,   Then the mustache helps visually eliminate the dissonance, by changing the center of mass visually.

Because the mustache is a darker color than your skin, when it appears at the center of your face, it is visually a "hole" which draws the perception of your other features Inward.



Now beards are different,  beards primarily help define jaw lines or the lack there of.

It was my birthday so I had the day off work.  Sat round waiting for the courier to bring a hard drive (headphones would have meant missing the doorbell) then fought to fit it and now, 10 hours later, I'm still waiting for it to fill up.  In between the waiting for that I waited for relatives to bring cards and birthday wishes and waited in line to vote.  I guess it's better than being in education and having an exam, but I'll never understand why people like birthdays.

Bring on Powder coating

Interesting point, under the paint on the rear plate near the back was edge lots of burrs that were covered by the paint, clearly they didn't mess around when they painted these.

Read up on bicycles as I am planning to replace my bike later this year.

Had my mouth water over the Specialized AWOL Transcontinental (http://theradavist.com/2014/01/product-review-the-specialized-edition-awol-transcontinental-touring-bike/#1).
They have and awesome video (https://vimeo.com/80636312) series about the race from London to Istanbul (a 3100km unsupported "race")
(http://i.imgur.com/jxMJ4Qk.jpg)

But since that one was an expensive limited edition I moved my eye towards... even more expensive custom bikes like the VanNicholas Yukon (http://www.vannicholas.com/73/Yukon_Rohloff/bike.aspx) and the Santos Race Lite (http://www.santosbikes.com/fietsen/lite-serie/race-lite) or the more affordable Atropin Randonneur Alfine (http://www.poison-bikes.de/shopart/9914003067/Randonneur-Fahrraeder/Randonneur-28-Zoll/Randonneur-28-Zoll-mit-Scheibenbremse/Atropin-Randonneur-Alfine.html).

Sigh, the search for an affordable IGH equiped Randonneur isn't easy...
Especially at my size.

You mean for it being stolen? Or?

My current bike uses a Nexus 8 and has served me well for 7 years or so. I want an IGH because I ******* hate derailleurs and those won't survive the daily abuse that I put it through.
Its pretty much breaking down after 7 years of daily service. Repairing the issues will be too costly and not really worth it anymore.

Already had a bike stolen before. Got replaced under the insurance that was on it. That one was a whole lot less expensive.

Some good locks and using your head (http://holland-cycling.com/tips-and-info/safety/bicycle-theft) make all the difference. Besides, over here your chances of having your bike stolen increase as the bike gets cheaper/more generic. Better to have something that stands out.
Still, with between 541,000 to 897,000 (http://www.fietsersbond.nl/de-feiten/fietsdiefstal/feiten-en-cijfers/minder-fietsen-gestolen-toch-niet#.VVKONfntlBc) bikes being stolen each year on a population of 19 million bikes that's about 5% of bikes being stolen each year.

I'll put a ring lock (http://www.axa-stenman.com/en/bicycle-components/locks/frame-locks/defender/) and a good long chain lock (http://www.abus.com/eng/Mobile-Security/Bike-Safety-and-Security/Locks/Lock-Chain-Combination/Granit-CityChain-X-Plus-1060) on it and it will be fine.
I'll keep the old bike for more high-risk trips like getting a beer in town or put the fancy one in a secure bike garage.

There are two types of thieves: Professional teams with vans and opportunity thieves like junkies and drunk students.
The majority is the latter type and a generic omafiets can be flipped for €25 easily in the city.

Derailleurs need a lot of care to keep working or need to be replaced every year.
And since I ride all year round and half the time the bike sits outside the chain and cogs get rusted to oblivion in no time unless you clean and lube them after every ride.

For comparison: my Shimano IGH hasn't had any type of maintenance for the 7+ years that I use it and is still working. Even through long winters with heavy rain, snow and salt.
If I would have given it a simple yearly checkup by the repair shop it would have lasted even longer.

And... well I use it in the city. So sometimes I jump off a curb or transport my girlfriend on the back. I've had other people on there as well so a bike has to be able to withstand +200kg's of weight at times. :P

This is why you need to create backup isos..

If i have a problem.. I just hit reload..  I don't want to even THINK about what might be wrong.. JUST FIX IT.

I feel ya. I had 3 done at once with only novacain. I had no pain during the procedure, but the crunch/crackle sound when he pulled them out still haunts me. At least it was comical when one flew across the room.

The after-pain never bothered me once. What did get to me was the oozing; I got very sick of the blood taste after a while to the point of nausea.

Take care!

Took me a total of 3 days to take it apart and put i back together but I finally got it done.
It was a stock Ducky Shine 2 TKL, MX Browns with Red LEDs.

I lubed, stickered and sip socket all the switches. And swapped out the LEDs to 2x3x4 white ones, and the switch cover to the gateron ones.
Overall, I'm satisfied. Desoldering was a pita tho.  :'(

Went to London. Spent the night at a pub with accommodation, like it's 15th century. Then went to the zoo. Zoo was okay. London is still ****.

I've never put more than the maximum I put in a rig was $900 which was enough for the use I have. I still have it 4 years later but it feels a bit outdated to be honest.

You made a better SSD choice for sure.. Although me personally, I would get an 850pro because the price difference isn't that huge.

NONE of the x99 cpus besides the quad core can be cooled well on air cooler..

Even the NHD15 is not enough..  You need AT LEAST a powerful dual radiator to even get to 44x (4400mhz) safely..

that soundcard is bogus.. it's not good at all.. and it will be influenced greatly by leaky motherboard DC..

It's better to use onboard optical out and use a separate DAC for crystal clear sound, no PC DC noise.

The 1000 watt PSU is a huge waste of money, because it will not even come close to 800.. something around 600..700 tops..

The expensive case is kind of a money waster, because it offers no real performance gain.

But if your client dude likes it, well, that's his call..

Ugh I both love and hate Sunday nights....

They are awesome! because all the nice bars and restaurants are empty and you can have a relaxing drink/meal etc... found a brilliant little cafe/restaurant actually run by and filled with Italians (was nice to spend some time in a place full of Italian's)... but then you get carried away and a single drink turns into 3 pints and pints turn to wine and... it's a Sunday...

Only have 1 or 2 pictures now, more to come next week, but I started building my leeku PCB. What isn't in pictures that I have done is all of the diodes have been soldered on, 3 switches have been added for LED effect testing, some resistors added on, and the lock LEDs added. I also thinned a cable so it would fit in the case. I still need the clear switch tops to finish the build, but I have some on the way, so it should be done Mon-Tues next week.

One thing I noticed is that it is easier to solder SMD for me than it is throughole, which I thought was weird.

The company which I declined the employment has since contacted me again for the position I applied for in February. Went through the interview process once more and was re-offered the position!

O Australia, the lucky country with Telstra free public WiFi in many public telephones, 7-11 everywhere (although they are all 24 hours now, the name is from when they were open from 7am to 11pm or something), and electric trains.

Sorry, no free public cell phone chargers though, that I am aware of.

Dont really know much about vintage boards (or alps boards at all for that matter) but I scooped this guy up from work today. They were going to throw it on the recycle pile but they knew I was a keyboard nut and thought it would be funny to hide my RF87UB and put this in its place. The joke kind of died when I was actually excited to see an AT101W  :))

Anyone know relative valuation range for something like this? I checked ebay about saw about $30?

The keys have some shine and are slightly yellow on the top, however the case is in great condition. No cracks, no missing screws, all keys/leds work. Cable and plug are both super clean. All I really had to do was take the keys off and blow out some dust with my air compressor.

I woke up at 3am to take my brother off to the airport. He's working in an American summer camp for pretty much 2 months (Wekeela in Maine if any of you guys know it or w-e). Went back to bed at 4.

Let the plumbers into the house at 8, they did pretty much nothing, so I went back to bed at 9.

Woke up again at 11 to get my delivery of clear switch tops from the postie. Went back to sleep for about an hour.

Woke up, played some Skyrim, ate a pretty steady supply of biscuits, no real food or drink, watched a few episodes of the West Wing, played some Star Wars Republic Commando, and I've just ordered pizza. And only just had a shower.

I should have gone to the gym...

You should try a Kwak if you can find one. They come in a really cool glass. Just be wary of the rush.

If you like lambic you should try the Faro from Lindersman brewery. It is a Belgium beer as well. You have the "Queue de charrue brune" which is really bitter and smell like balsamic vinegar. It is a bit sweet and bitter, I really like it.

Holy ****! That looks amazing and probably tasted great!

Honestly I think it is just a number, kind of like Hungary. Hungary's is 18 but they still serve to 15 year olds. I was debating ordering something harder than beer during dinner tonight but decided not too. Enjoying it while I can before I go back to the States where I will have to wait 5 years

This was my "office" today.  At the platform on top.  The blue manlift is a ZX-135.  The ZX is the style of boom, and the 135 is max height to the floor of the platform..  Maxed out, the lift got to within 5 feet of the floor of the platform on the top of the bucket elevator we are tearing down.

[attach=2]

Sending the platform along with 20 feet of trunking for the bucket elevator at one shot.  This chunk weighed 8300 pounds.  The crane was good for 34,000 pounds where he was making the pick.  Done safely in 8 hours.  That is why I choose to work union.

Fought with my wifi plans only to realize I didn't really need that extra 8-port switch. (Switch before router = no go)
Made some cables.
Realized they looked nice but didn't work. :(

Got a working superfast wifi and finally a properly working Philips Hue setup! :D

Unless it's too burnt. Most of the black is a thin surface.

None of the meat is black.

I got them from a very old cherry lug-able computer, from 1980.
they are quite nice, I will be saving them for a special project.
I also have a feeling that this lug-able computer is "pre" dolch...
I could be wrong, but it looks exactly like all the other dolch machines I've seen on ebay.

I was making a coffee with my espresso machine, and the handle with the little thing with the coffee in it kinda fell off.  The pressure of the water that had built up behind it sprayed hot coffeey water all over the tray, adjacent kettle, spare cups and espresso machine itself.

So instead of enjoying a nice espresso I spent half an hour cleaning it all up.

In order to stave off the time when There Is No Spoon, I have been gradually collecting spoons (here at work).

Now I have four (4) spoons of two (2) different materials (metal and plastic).

We already have a fork shortage.  I am prepared for the worst (I have a fork too).

Good job.  Spoons are the best utensils.

Come the apocalypse and the end of days, the man with the most spoons will reign over, well, probably not very much actually.

But thanks anyway :)

It would have to be a fairly dire pudding to signal the onset of the end of days.

My entire ****ing day was consumed by keyboards

receive 3 packages all keyboard related
meet up with platypus to give him his Atreus
go home eat n stuff get ready for stream
stream 3~ hours prepping PCBs for assembly once parts arrive
clean for like 1-2 hours because my ****ing desk situation sucks balls right now and I really need to get off my ass and finish the basement and buy a new desk/chair
browsing geekhack in between all of this, and now posting to geekhack

Just finished removing the old ass gold stain on a solid oak table I picked up for $20 on CL.  Initial stripping done with 60 grit followed by 2 passes of 120 grit with water between each pass to raise the grain.  Finish feels good.  Will hit it with 220 tomorrow and start finishing it in black stain.  (http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/08/12/afe2ca400b3d5e46555b46a8b2549d1f.jpg)

Yeah, mission style for sure.  As I slowly move away from the Ikea stuff, I will be replacing it with all solid wood mission style furniture (this is my first).  Unfortunately, I was unable to keep the super sharp corners on the wood.  With my 2 year old and another little one in the future, I decided to soften the corners and edges a very small amount.  I still kept the lines didn't totally radius everything, just hit everything with the 120 as I was sanding to slightly round it all out.

Dre was doing most of the work and yes the income wasn't being properly shared, everyone but Eazy (and even in the end) got screwed out of their money.

Got some timings of iridium flares as well so if I can work out where the satellites are going to be then I can hopefully spot a nice bright light at some point.

Started working on painting my shed. This here's just primer and I didn't bother doing much cleaning\prepping before hand other than sweeping out webs and such. Going with a hand brush rather than a roller or sprayer - cheaper and so far I'm only out about $3 in supplies (free primer, $1 brushes, some masking tape).

Previous person did a really ****ty job with a roller, didn't mask off beams, didn't get complete covering and didn't bother to do the entire thing. There's a lot of damaged wood in the back from leaks so I just did a really fast coat over that until I get some wood to replace it and seal off the roof.

I actually impressed the hell out of myself.  I was in the garage making a jig to layout holes for adding a windows key to F122 and unsaver plates.  Well I took some measurements, drilled some holes, ran some maths, more measurements, drilled another hole.  And my hole for marking the actual additional hole on the IBM plate, came out within .002" of dead center between the other holes in the jig.  The other holes fit over the two barrels on either side of the new switch.  And this is all I used for tools for the entire project.

Now I just need to figure a jig for holding he plate so I drill the holes square.

Wasn't today, but I recently lubed my orange ALPS keyboard and I'm loving every second I touch it. It's so smooth now.

That's your Apple board, right?  Congrats on the sweet, sweet lube.  :cool:

Yup! Thanks Hoff!

Ran Cat 5e through the crawlspace of the house (which was hot as hell and filthy as ****) and installed an ethernet jack in my room.  Finally have decent internet speed in my room and should be able to play some online FPS games again.

Not sure what you're talking about with the stick tool.  I'd have to see it. 

There's a storage room that has the hot water heater and router and is open to the crawlspace.  I crawled up into the crawlspace from inside the house, grabbed the cable from the storage room and shimmied my way through the cramped and filthy crawlspace, attached the cables to a wire that was stuck through the ceiling, and pulled it through into the closet.  Then crimped the male plugs on the router end, drilled a hole in the wall of the closet into the next room, stuck the cable through, connected it to the female side, and mounted a faceplate in the room.  Huge pain in the ass, but worth it as I can now actually use the internet instead of praying I have decent speeds and waiting until 2AM for something more useable.

That's a pretty cool tool, but I doubt it would have helped with running the cable, unfortunately.  Since it's in a crawlspace full of heater ducting, crossbeams, and so on, there would have to have been a door from the closet into the crawlspace for it to work.

Since we're on cabling, I tested some cable for a discussion on reddit on using velcro vs cable ties earlier this morning. Got me x2 gold. haha.

It will actually tolerate quite a bit of abuse before it's not very useful.

Started with a 27ft piece of cable

8 tests later and I folded, kinked, knotted, smashed it in two places with cable ties, then crushed it with pliers before it failed

Got the internet back up and running.  Had to go out and buy an SB6141 modem and a TP-Link Archer C9 to replace what appears to be a fried modem and a router that, apparently, wasn't cutting it anymore (still not sure if it had to be replaced).

Went canoeing tonight among bioluminescent plankton. Pretty trippy. Almost slain by mosquitoes though.

Got the internet back up and running.  Had to go out and buy an SB6141 modem and a TP-Link Archer C9 to replace what appears to be a fried modem and a router that, apparently, wasn't cutting it anymore (still not sure if it had to be replaced).

holy faaaaaaauuuulllllkkkk Nubbz that is one hell of an Internet connection I think I used a similar speed test and was showing 15mbs down and maybe 10 up and I thought it was fast as hell(I thought I was cool downloading 1080p movies on my NAS in like 5 minutes) does this equate in real life to things you do,use,stream,download etc (meaning do you ever see speeds that close or is it a number you will never really see)
Title: Re: What did you do today?
Post by: nubbinator on Sun, 06 September 2015, 22:40:59
I'm getting like 2.5mb/s down on some stuff, but I think it may be server side restricted.  So those are theoretical speeds.  Actual speeds are much lower.

SB6141 here too, just upgraded to it a couple month ago. It really seems to perform far more consistently than my old one, I pay for 75/5 and I routinely see 85+ down.
Title: Re: What did you do today?
Post by: nubbinator on Sun, 06 September 2015, 22:53:47
Speed seems the same (pay for 50, get ~60), but I'll be stoked if it's more consistent.  The speeds have been all over the place.  The AC router seems to be pretty awesome too.  Definitely an upgrade from the Netgear that was being used before.  Hopefully it stays this consistent.

The wifi range isn't great and there's too many walls aaaand it's on the second foot in the office.


But today I went to Big Bear. Was pretty cool. I have to go in the winter though, so I'll have to make the trip :)

Went into convenient care today due to suspected something in my eye that is not supposed to be there.  Confirmed, there is a piece of steel on my eye.  Doc couldn't get it out.  He gave me an Rx for an antibiotic as a precaution and they are making me an appointment at the eye doctor to get it removed.

I don't understand why they use they use these crazy high numbers when it's all theoretical. I have programs that download content for me and calculate my avaerage real life up and down and the highest I have seen down was 4.2mbps and I forget what my up is but I pay for a 100mbps connection. Granted my nas has a dedicated line as wifi even the newer protocols were a little to all over the place for me. However I have not tried an AC connection yet  :eek:

Am now in Russia.

Friday night, I visited a friend and stayed until late. To make sure I catch the latest bus, the friend checked its location in a public transit app which follows all the buses' location via satellite. He told me where and when to go but made a slight mistake about timing, so I had to run after the bus.

So I was running along the road on the opposite traffic lane, when all of a sudden a police car approaches, switches on the emergency lights and pulls me over. One cop with a submachinegun blocks my way, another one gets out of the car behind me and asks for my documents. I give him my British driving licence. He says "oh, look at this" and hands it over to his partner. Then the interrogation:

-- we had to cross the double white because of you! Where are you running? And most importantly -- from who?
-- I was running for the bus.
-- have you used anything forbidden?
-- no. I drank beer, but it's legal I guess.
-- oh yeah, I smell it well. have you got anything forbidden with you?
-- no.
-- put your stuff on the car and raise your hands.

Cop searches me and to his surprise finds nothing interesting. Bus disappears behind the horizon.

-- where do you live?
-- UK
-- hmm. Have you got their citizenship?
-- no.
-- OK. We'll drive you to the bus.
-- I will get a cab.
-- get in the car QUICK! Or the bus will go!

I realised that they were going to bring me to the police station and then make me give them a bribe, and felt that they will use force if I refuse, so I got in the car. We started moving.

-- so, where is it better to live?

If I say "in the UK", they'll beat the **** out of me, that's for sure.

-- if you like good beer, then in Russia.
-- we don't give a **** about beer. We love vodka and moonshine! And we are not the traitors to Motherland! By the way, where does this bus go?
-- over there.

The police car, passing on the red lights, chases the bus and cuts it on the bus stop. I thank the cops, wish them a pleasant night, get out of the car even before it stops completely and jump into the bus.

Fin.

P.S. boy, do I enjoy drinking decent beer again.

That's confusing you pay for a 100mbps connection but only get 4% of that O.o here in the UK you usually pay for something like a 15mbps connection and get like 12mbps seems odd to have such a high number if you will never get anywhere close to that :x

So we had our first table top session of D&D 5E tonight.  I am the DM, first time in this position for an entire campaign.  So far so good.  Everybody is new at least to 5E so we are all on a bit of a learning curve.  Either way, We ended the night on an EPIC move. 

Earlier in the night, the dragonborn monk, couldn't hit anything with his fists.  Well our fighter showed up late due to other commitments so we just had him wandering through the streets of the down that was getting attacked as he is the only human in the group.  He stands back and watches our fight.  Sees the monk not hit ****, so for the last kobold, the fighter picks up the monk and uses him as a club to kill the last one.

Well we get to the last fight and the monk then decides to pick up the fighter (dual wields war picks) and use him as a club.  I have him roll attack and as a combination roll its opposing strength check against the same combo roll the fighter makes.  Fighter wins the roll, so the fighter kicks hard to re-position himself mid swing and completely caves in the chest of a kobold with both war picks.  So now I have them both roll a d20 for the dismount.  Both roll at the exact same time and both rolls are a natural 20.  They happen to be standing on the edge of a group of the three remaining kobolds.  Needless to say, through the powers of role playing, the fighter essentially pulled the Triple Lindy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDMMYT3vkTk) off the remaining kobolds.

We figured that would be a good point to end the night.

On a side note, key caps make great markers for bad guys.  Front face is the direction they are pointing, legends make them easy to keep track of (I was using two different colors of number row keys for different monster types in the same fight), when they are dead, flip the cap upside down.

Dude, quite reminding me how much I miss DnD/Pathfinder.   

I need to come up with a good long troll character and find something local.  I'm thinking a Paladin of Beshaba.  A natural 20 would be the equivalent of a 1 for other characters and a 1 would be the equivalent of a natural 20 for other characters.  It would have potential to really make things fun.

Ouch.  I accidentally thumped my thumb against the belt sander on Sunday and took a good chunk of skin off with it.

At least the drive missed your ring or your ring was off.  I've heard too many horror stories with rings and power tools to ever want to mix the two.

I'd be surprised if wearing a ring isn't against the safety rules where he's working.  And if it's not, Melvang, don't wear your ring at work.

I had the ring on but I was wearing gloves.  I was taking bolts out and had by fingers under the angle to hold the bolt while I spun the nut off.  Well my had was about 1/4" above the floor/celing of the paint booth we are tearing out.  The impact jumped and the edge of the socket landed on my finger while it was still spinning down.  The impact was a new Fuel brushless 18V heavy duty Milwaukee, I am used to the 18 volt Dewalts.  The balance on the dewalts is very close to even between the head and the battery.  The Milwaukee has a much lighter battery, but the entire tools weighs a bit more, so much more weight above your hand.  Still not used to the balance yet.

For the record these impacts hit hard AF.  They claim 700 ft-lb torque with 1,100 ft-lbs torque for loosening (https://www.milwaukeetool.com/power-tools/cordless/2763-22).

I know hoffman, I shouldn't, but I always wear gloves with helps minimize the risk of catching it.  I do understand the risks.  Here they don't care.  They do injection and blow molding for the big three car companies, and Fiat, plus they have something going with polaris.  So essentially half the equipment melts some sort of plastic to the point where it is either moldable via vacuum, pressure, or enough to inject it.  Yet, the most common attire I see from plant workers is tank top and basket ball shorts.

Not exactly today, but on the weekend I won my football (not the american one) grand final after my team also ended up winning the premiership, so we got two gold medals :p. Especially satisfying considering the other team were a filthy bunch. Everyone in the whole competition hated them. My boss said they've always been that way, even back when he played.

I bought myself a set of Milwaukee Fuel brushless tools (drill and impact driver) about a year ago. Can confirm, these things will kick your butt. But I let them because they are awesome. You do get used to the torque over time.

Got bit by the 1/2" drive impact at work today.

(Attachment Link)

Ouch.  I accidentally thumped my thumb against the belt sander on Sunday and took a good chunk of skin off with it.

At least the drive missed your ring or your ring was off.  I've heard too many horror stories with rings and power tools to ever want to mix the two.

I'd be surprised if wearing a ring isn't against the safety rules where he's working.  And if it's not, Melvang, don't wear your ring at work.

I know hoffman, I shouldn't, but I always wear gloves with helps minimize the risk of catching it.  I do understand the risks.  Here they don't care.  They do injection and blow molding for the big three car companies, and Fiat, plus they have something going with polaris.  So essentially half the equipment melts some sort of plastic to the point where it is either moldable via vacuum, pressure, or enough to inject it.  Yet, the most common attire I see from plant workers is tank top and basket ball shorts.

I bought myself a set of Milwaukee Fuel brushless tools (drill and impact driver) about a year ago. Can confirm, these things will kick your butt. But I let them because they are awesome. You do get used to the torque over time.

It was mostly the size of the bolt that was the cause for it jumping.  They were only 5/16" hardware so 1/2" socket, with that size of an impact.  Yeah total overkill, but if one is fussy, I can just put it in forward and shear the bolt in half without any loss of time.

Stomped over some ancient ruins in Rome. Took a bite and then tried to continue looking, but was denied because the two areas: the one I had visited and the one I was going to visit were counted as the same (I couldn't see the pathways on the map...), and they did not allow recently to the "same" site. "Valid for two consecutive days" my ass. Effing scam!

Took my bulky cross to the plains for some riding, with an empty battery, clogged the engine on a hill, kicked the kickstarter a bit, got a minor heatstroke, eventually figured to cut the gasoline off, dissipated the clog, got the bike going, returned home, drank some water, spent some time with the dog, told myself never to do it again without a water supply and a cell phone

Better pictures than I've ever taken!  :))

Definitely a great day though and that ice cream is haunting me man!

Gratz Sifo.

Today I picked up a precision tool from a jobsite.  It was sitting in a drawer, still in a box.  The last calibration date was in '08.  It is a Federal 22P 11.  Essentially it is a thickness gauge for very fine detail, such as the thickness of paint.  This one is graduated in .0001" direct read on the dial.  That is not a typo, but 1 ten-thousandth of an inch direct read.

So the interview was pretty straight forward... I didn't really get any opportunities to make much of an impression but I just went along with everything. They just gave a tour of the office, explained what the job was, asked like 2 questions about availability and experience, and that's it lol. Place is nice, I sent in my references (ceo and CFO of eSports canada), and they said they'd contact me next week (presumably if I actually got the job). Place seems really chill and fun I really hope I get to work there.

I had a bolt action Marlin 22LR when I was growing up for disposing vermin and I loved that gun. It was one of the most consistently accurate guns I've ever used, it was seriously a nail driver even from stupidly long distances. I regret selling that thing all the time.

I went to Tokyo Game Show 2015 and ran into a strange keyboard from Topre which its staff said can be used as an gaming stick, mouse, midi keyboard, and so on.
Did you get to try it? Did they say anything about extending the keyboard protocol?
It has been on trade shows before. The sensing in Topre keyboards has always been analogue against a threshold, so the difference is only in the electronics/controller. There are a couple of threads about it.

Thanks guys. :). I am pretty comfortable with solder and I know the basics for how to heat the part to make the solder flow into it, but it was the first time soldering with a torch.  I will admit that the last few joints were a lot cleaner than the first few. :)

US: I think I remember my driving test being 16/20 questions to pass. Then a drive around totaling in the area of ~1mile/1.6km then return to the testing area to parallel park in a coned area almost twice the length of the vehicle I was driving. I was ready for some crazy **** I'd seen in movies. I think the entire process took around an hour.

Australia has a really complicated drivers license process - you have to be 16 to take a written test to get learner plates which allow you to drive under adult supervision - then after a year you're allowed to take an actual driving test which gets you on to a red provisional license... After a year of that you take another test to go to green provisional license.... Then after two years of that you get your "full drivers license" which allows you to actually have one or two beers and still drive...

Damn! When I took my test it was at 16 and boom, full fledged drivers license. Also, in my state, Arizona, they don't expire for like 60 years. I think now at 16 its the supervised learner permit during daytime only, then 17 its day and night supervised, then 18 you get the full solo license. (Just double checked, it's valid until age 65) My dad hasn't changed his license since 1981, when they moved into the house they're still at. He has this old laminated license and he refuses to do anything about it until it expires, haha.

Also... Congrats, iri!

Totally agree, it should expire even if I'd hate to repass it.

For exemple in France they added roundabouts everywhere in the last 20years, my parents and people older didn't learned to drive with them, so they slow down the traffic by not using them correctly, it infuriates me.

That's really helpful but in America nothing like that will ever function.

Roundabouts = no rules

There are a few in neighborhoods by me and every once in a while someone will go the wrong way. It's the "why go all the way around when I can just turn left" mentality.

They're not designed to keep pace with "intersections" they're supposed to keep a steady flow of traffic, but their secondary "ideal" is that the massively reduce the number of T-bone incidents which happen, hence roundabouts are much safer.

Depends. Did you hand them a CV? Or is this the one you had an interview with?

I would say it's very good news. In the company I work for, the recruiters and the HR department are completely separate entities.

I don't want to get your hopes up, but it sounds good to me.

the one I had interview with. they never asked for cv :x last thing they asked for was references so I sent in reference sheet.

The 1/4" layer would have similar cutouts, but with like 14x16 MM holes so the switches still clip in, but the plate is supported underneath?

Got my third 15 hour day in a row.  That takes the three day total to 16 hours straight time, 14 hours of time and a half, and 15 hours of double time 3 days.

You getting much sleep?

Sleep is important, especially if you are playing with heavy machinery during the day.

At least you still have time to prepare.  I had an insane week in undergrad where I thought the midterm was two days later than it was.  I showed up unprepared since I had three 15 page papers due and another midterm the day before and i thought the exam was on Thursday, not Tuesday.

Yeah, I've had days like that. You will always try to wing it but that often doesn't work.

Fortunately the teacher just called/mailed us telling us that she might have been a bit overenthusiastic with that planning.

We're having a trial test tomorrow to see how ready we all are and will most likely move it to next week or so. This is my final course for my Bachelor's and after that I am done. Three of us applied for an early exam instead of waiting till next summer when the course is being held again.

So all in all my heart rate has gone down. :P

I pulled a D on the exam, something I never did, so I was crushed.  There were too many specifics even though I knew the theory.  The professor knew I read the material, participated in class, and never missed a class, so I think the professor took sympathy on me since I somehow pulled a B+ at the end of the semester.  I earned a very high A on the midterm, so I think that that made him fudge my grade a little.

Good luck on the exam.  It's awesome that your university allows you actually graduate early/on time instead of forcing specific classes and exams at specific times only.

Triple backed up everything on my Mac (slightly paranoid, based on previous experiences backing everything up to tape, TWICE, verifying both tapes, reinstalling, and then discovering that neither tape was readable).

Dismantled the Mac (Mac mini - the model you need a putty knife to get in to).

Replaced the HDD (not with SSD before you ask, too expensive and I still had the 1TB HDD I bought for this project a couple of years ago).

Put it mostly back together, hampered only slightly by the WiFi antenna lead that fell off and was enjoying its few moments of freedom too much to clip back on.

Booted from an alleged Mavericks install USB stick, which actually worked!

Mild panic when no HDD showed up, and patted myself on the back for not sealing the Mac up yet.  Did a quick search and found that I needed to format the HDD first which, after having been done, showed the drive on the list.

Installed Mavericks, went through all the setups for a newly installed OS, and currently installing updates.

This Mac mini is supported under Yosemite, but reports on the interwebs indicate that this old Mac struggles with Yosemite, so I decided to stick with Mavericks.  Apparently El Capitan is supported too, but I'd prefer to wait for the first update and reports of performance on this model before taking that leap.

Ahead is still all the apps to install, and all the data to restore.

My mum had one recently and has to get a decent chunk of skin off her nose taken out due to skin cancer

Thanks mate.  This spot could be one of a few things, but the doctor doesn't think it's anything particularly threatening, but wants to get it checked just in case.

I have worked over in that area.  Don't remember what plant.  Was either a Cargil, or some sort of ethanol plant.

I've been there for roughly 72 hours, but have done a lot. Restored my driving licence which I shamefully lost in a park. Got custom made orthopaedic soles. Brought a bunch of British cheeses to a friend who loves them. Closed my Citibank account, may they be damned forever. Drank in the forest at night when it was -2°. Visited parents. Spent a whole day barbecuing with friends. Bought some medical stuff which isn't sold in the UK. Bought a T-shirt with Putin's portrait and "hello from Crimea" headline.
It seems I am entering the third phase of expat's life, the homesickness.

LOL, it was already dead in the road before I got to it.  I think I just rolled over its neck/shoulder area.  All it did to the car was take a piece off the inside of the inside of the wheel well, and left a tuft of fun between the rim and the tire.

Not today, but I spent the the entire weekend installing hardwood flooring in my parents house. We had to interweave the new flooring with the existing hardwood so I spent a lot of quality time with a circular saw and crowbar.

It was tiring, messy work, but damn did it look good when we got done. You would never be able to tell where the new wood starts.

Now I want to rip out my carpet, but I need to rest a while first :))

And there's a Giant 3 inch hole drilled straight through the concrete wall..


However, the end cap still has gaps, which is where the mosquitoes were getting in from..

You need either a very thick cable,  OR get one of those "Redmere" cables..  They got this "booster" circuit inside which allows the signal to go extra long on even "thinner" cables..


Alas, I'm not totes sure,  but it may add latency... again, not totes sure.

Even if it does add latency, we're looking at  Microseconds here,  not Milliseconds..  so much much less than even a single frame of latency.

Home repairs.

In the past 24 hours, my son and I un-installed our dishwasher and wall oven/microwave unit (weighing at least as much as I do), went to another house and un-installed similar appliances, brought them back to our house, and re-installed them in our kitchen. There was considerable sweat and cursing involved, and my back hurts.

They were in perfect condition, very lightly used, 5 years old, pretty stainless steel, and we got them for 13.5% of their new selling price.

Luckily, Home Depot is 1/2 mile from our house, because 4 trips were involved for various reasons.

How do you find nudie jeans? I was thinking about getting myself a pair... Also are they wearable during summer or are they too hot?

Haha, cheers dude. Yeah to be honest, if you're going down the raw denim route Nudie have probably some of the thinnest material in a raw denim, you can definitely wear them in the Summer but depends what you'll be doing. I know QLD gets hot af, if you aren't going raw then the material is softer and pre-washed so more comfortable in the Summer.

All said, jeans aren't go to clothes in Summer anyway. FYI, Nudie have a tendency for crotch blow outs because they have a thinner denim compared to other jean brands, but I think their cuts are some of the best.

Okay sweet, obviously I'm not going for jeans all the time, but on some cooler days my shorts are too cold and the jeans I have at the moment are too thick to manage. I definitely love the cuts too, I went and tried some on because I have a store 5 minutes from my house, and I really really liked the fit.

With the crotch blowouts, are they that bad, like should I be concerned to the point of bringing a spare pair of shorts/pants if I'm going to uni for a whole day?

When I think it's time, usually once every 1-3 months , I fill my tub with room temp water. Put some laundry detergent in there. I like Woolite black. Then submerge my jeans inside out in the water. Wait 15 mins. Air dry. But I had to wash after a concert I went to last Friday. And I had just got this new pair of 501STF like a week or two ago.

But on my 501STF, the labels all say it's perfectly fine to just toss it in the washer and dryer.

I don't really get never washing your raw denim. Ew.

**** me I'm bored, this is the last week at my old job and the MD decided not to bother getting anyone to replace me (I handle all payrol, I am the sole person in charge of paying ~150 people at this company) so he has very expensive agency people in who are, not great.
The last few weeks they have been 'shadowing me' trying to learn and get a grasp of it all (I should not at this point that the one day I was off 'sick' last week, they managed to pay everyone twice after being told not too).
This week they are doing everything and I am supervising, here to help in any problems or queries that may arise. This essentially amounts to me sitting behind either one of these two or three people saying 'yes' 'no' as a glance up from my phone or away from my monitor.
They are slow and I have no other work to do.

I've had a pair for almost a year now. How do you recommend cleaning them?

I went about 9 months before first wash, after the first wash I tend to do more frequent washes say once every 3 months. If you wash them in really hot water you will get more of an initial contrast and lose more indigo dye, or if you're looking to retain a lot of the colour and get deeper fades you can do a cold soak in a shallow bath with some clothes detergent (I'm not super fussed on what to use but CPT mentioned Woolite, I've heard it's good but it's not available in my country) for about an hour, then rinse carefully trying not to squeeze and disturb the dye because this can ruin your fades, hang inside out to dry and make sure you pull the inseams so they don't shrink!

I also use a denim fresh spray that I picked up in Amsterdam, by the way if they get smelly you can do two things. You can put them in a plastic bag and in the freezer overnight or just hang then inside out to air outside, a combo of the two works best  :thumb:

I generally do this but I'm not too careful or anything. I like fades and everything but they're still jeans. I think as is, I'm a bit crazy to soak em instead of tossing em in the machine. But I don't want them to shrink or anything once I get the fit right.

I'd also like to say I'm far from a denim-head or anything. I just like the fit I get from the 501STF.

And yeah, it doesn't really matter what detergent. I just use Woolite because I have a lot of black clothes too.

I had to read this twice to figure out why you were buying keycaps from a coffee shop.  :))
I was wondering the same thing too!  :D

Didn't get as much work done today due to the stress.  Had to let another employee go, but they deserved it.  Want to play on your phone and not do your work?  Want to lie to me and say you're almost done when I can see you on camera?  Not flying with me anymore.  Go do that for someone else.

@SamirD what gets me is I'm usually at work at least 2 hours before I can call any vendors, suppliers or contractors because they don't open early.

And don't get me started on the general lack of urgency with the above mentioned parties.


On topic, I'm packing a keyboard hobby starter box for an international keyboard hobbyist.

And it's such a pain to be a business owner had depends on people instead of machines.  If I could throw out everyone and replace them with robots at $10k each, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

But it's really hurting the country overall too.  People will slave over lesser jobs in the third world, so that's where the jobs are all going.  And for the jobs that can't be exported, the people get imported.  :eek:  My wife's company does that all the time.

Ahh, batch files. I've also had my head buried in them for a couple of months. We have very large filesets on deployed computers and thumb drives. Don't want to delete all of it then recopy 100+ gigs 50 times. So I write these batch files to automate deleting/renaming/moving some of the files. Every time we make a new version of the fileset.  Lol.

I always say they are the product of motivated lazy geeks...spend an hour now to save a day later.

I love batch files.  They're great to automate so much.  I have router reboot batch files (they use wget too), file backup batch files, file copy batch files, time activated batch files, data massaging batch files, and more.

They're great because with a little bit of an understanding of algorithms and computer science, even the layman can make a small program that has huge productivity gains and runs on almost anything windows.

There's even a forum for it:  www.dostips.com

I keep meaning to go on IRC, but never get round to it =/

I picked my car up from the shop, just had some running gear work done to it, played some games of Dota, went for a few drinks in the pub before work, but then the drive from the centre of town to work (which is pretty much the route I'm going to take from my new house to work) was ****ing horrendous. I'm going to have to pore over maps and try and find a better route, because i'm going to end up crashing if I get as angry as I did this evening.

Yeah, well he was a great man, just died too early, he was only 59. He'd been a federal member of Parliament here in Australia, did a lot for Aboriginal land rights. More than I ever saw, I'm 22 now so most of what he did was before my time.

Got a chance to test the wireless.  The router sits probably 4 feet below ground level, and get 2 bars on my phone in the garage.  The garage is detached with aluminum doors as well, so I would say the wireless signal strength is pretty damn good.

Good to hear. But you should try to get that thing above ground.

I built a shelf in the coat closet, way up high, and installed an electrical outlet in the ceiling so my router is about 8 feet above ground and right smack in the middle of the house. I get 4 bars in the garage now.

I've got a pair of those in black. Very nice shoes.

Don't know how I am going to feel when it comes to my own dad's funeral, but I hope you have a good day? Kinda? I don't really know what to say :(

Same brand or just this style?

Yeah, well he was a great man, just died too early, he was only 59. He'd been a federal member of Parliament here in Australia, did a lot for Aboriginal land rights. More than I ever saw, I'm 22 now so most of what he did was before my time.

You will just deal with it how you deal with it, don't wish it upon yourself, make sure you make your feelings known though, because your thoughts are your own but your actions can be felt and shared.

Same brand and same style :) They are comfy, and they look great. I've posted mine in the shoe thread actually.

Wow, sounds like a cool dude. Sounds like he did a lot of good with his life, I would love to be in a position where I could do something like that.

Curious about the shoes, how long have you had them and how have they held up?

On average how often would you wear them and where have they worn away? I'm just wondering about the lasting quality

That's awful. My father died at 71 and he should have had at least another decade. A medical device hit the US market 6 months later that would have totally prevented what happened to him.

Since his death, I have always unconsciously fixated on 71.5 years as a "benchmark" for age. I make no conscious effort to do it, but, to this day, when I hear something like "dead at 74" the thought that instantly pops into my mind is: "he got 3 years more than Dad" or 92:21, or whatever.

When my best friend died a week after his 57th birthday, it really shook me up and I have still not gotten over it. But in his case, even though his death probably bothered me more than any other, I just think "he is missing *this* since he isn't here any more" but it did not change the 71.5 benchmark.

I wore a brown suit and black shoes to Dad's funeral, it was in the heat of summer. I still have those Johnson & Murphy's and, these days, I wear them a couple of times a year. I bought them about 1986 and have had them re-soled and re-heeled at least twice.

Just a couple of days later, the Olympics started up here in Atlanta, but it was hard to get much enjoyment out of them.

Loss of a friend is also huge, loss in general I guess. That idea of having a benchmark age makes sense in it's own way to me, his Father died when he was 92 and he had been looking after his Mother who just turned 92 on Monday, three days later she sees her own Son die in front of her. Life is weird.

Having those shoes only re-soled/heeled twice is actually awesome, that's some great wear, a few of my friends would need to get theirs re-soled every year!

I managed to find a new pair of slacks that actually fits me and has the features I require.

It has taken about 2 years on and off, and my last pair is literally falling apart.

When I got the shoes I wore them to work (office job) fairly regularly (but not every day) for a couple of years, and the first repair was probably then.
Since, they are my shiny black "dress shoes" and I only wear them on formal occasions, for a few hours at a time.

Sorry, I just wanted to wait until I got home and was able to check the shoes and the wear on them.

Here are the pics I posted in the shoe thread -> https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=39622.msg1835520#msg1835520

I honestly don't wear them that much, I've maybe only worn them half a dozen/ten times, so they haven't worn much. The heel is pretty unmarked, and the soles are a bit pock marked as you can see in the picture, but nothing extreme. I have flat feet so my shoes tend to wear on the inside-rear of the heels, but as I haven't worn them that much you can't really see that yet.

Ahh yeah, I can see the sole wear a bit. These seem to be a thinner brogue style, you may have the buckingham 1880's, mine are Fearnley not of the 1880 range. These might be my first foray into a better quality shoe,  I'll probably get a lot of wear out of them as a work shoe.

How do you like that layout with the longer space bar and the alt and ctrl next to each other?  I wonder if it's better than the normal 101 layout as I do feel myself stretching for space sometimes, but not for alt.

Actually I used a keyboard like this, although not this specific keyboard, for many years and learned many of my programmer skills on it, so using a modern keyboard almost feels like there are too many keys on the bottom row and the modern space bars are way too short.

Also I use 101 Model M and SSK a lot so the lack of Win/Menu keys doesn't bother me.

My Uncle and his family live in South Korea, in the South East, Pohang. I had a whole lot of Korean BBQ when I went over and stayed with them for about a month, yeah you need to be careful with the barber shops lol!

Korean BBQ is pretty awesome.  I've only had it here in the states, but the company I worked for was Korean so once in a while I'd get to taste some authentic stuff.

That's so crazy about the barbers!  I can't believe that's just 'normal'.  I was wondering why all the barbershops had mirror limo tint, lol.

Yeah dude, prostitution is illegal over there but everyone just turns a blind eye, it's a huge part of their economy, the Red Light District's are often close or next to the Police Stations.

I had so many varieties of Korean food from more modern dessert ice to traditional vegetarian monk food. Pig intestines are the bomb, so good!

I tried to find some Korean electronic stores for specialty stuff for my PC and keyboards but where I was is kind of considered a "country" town lol, even though the population was over 100,000. I will maybe need to go to Seoul next time for that stuff.

I had a whole lot of Korean BBQ when I went over and stayed with them for about a month, yeah you need to be careful with the barber shops lol! Anything with two revolving barber poles usually means it's not just for haircuts, if at all.
Korean BBQ is pretty awesome.  I've only had it here in the states, but the company I worked for was Korean so once in a while I'd get to taste some authentic stuff.

That's so crazy about the barbers!  I can't believe that's just 'normal'.  I was wondering why all the barbershops had mirror limo tint, lol.

Yeah dude, prostitution is illegal over there but everyone just turns a blind eye, it's a huge part of their economy, the Red Light District's are often close or next to the Police Stations.

I had so many varieties of Korean food from more modern dessert ice to traditional vegetarian monk food. Pig intestines are the bomb, so good!

I tried to find some Korean electronic stores for specialty stuff for my PC and keyboards but where I was is kind of considered a "country" town lol, even though the population was over 100,000. I will maybe need to go to Seoul next time for that stuff.
Now you tell me.  :eek:

If I would have only known about keyboards back then.  We actually had a chance to go to one of the electronics markets.  But japanese electronics were the same price as in the US, so I didn't get anything.  But I did get a sweet Dream Theater Korean only release CD and some other Korean CDs.  The Christmas music was the most interesting part of the visit.  Never heard a house remix of jingle bells before, lol.

Today I'm going to go hit up the Korean BBQ across the street from the suit place I'm going to! Keen.

Korean's love everything about pop culture, so strange to see that such an old country really doesn't stick to a lot of tradition, they are pretty easy to sway with trends.

I actually didn't even see too much stuff I couldn't get from b&h.  But it was neat to see how the market was laid out and all.

My boss made us all go to some museums that were somewhere in the city.(http://newpics.huntsvillecarscene.com/photos/i-LZvgG2D/0/M/i-LZvgG2D-M.jpg)

Felt nauseated from almost the time I got up, but got up and got to work anyways.  After a few hours it was so bad I had to lie down.  I finally took a single tablet of Pepto and within a few minutes I threw up.  After that I almost immediately felt better. :)  Got almost all the work done I needed to even with the sickness.

They planned for ~1500 people over the 4 hours it went on and there aren't many places around here to have it.

And I think with vacations and work schedules it just fit this weekend.

We made a blonde and another I'm not certain on since I arrived partway through that one. The blonde had some hibiscus-infused fluid (presumably water but I wasn't there for that part) added to it to attempt to make it pink - she hadn't tried this before, so who knows what'll happen or how pink it will be.  :))

And yeah the sanitization is pretty intense.  :P

Your daughter needs this:
http://nerf.wikia.com/wiki/Wildfire

I still have one of these and it's still pretty shocking to fire that thing.  3 shots per second at a minimum with a bit of recoil and a loud, real, tommy gun sound that you feel from the mechanism inside.  I remembering buying this for $20 and it was discontinued before I knew it.

Edit--found a video that highlights the sound:

I definitely try.  For the last 2 years our entire family has been the closest we've ever been.  And sometimes seeing my dad slip away like this really kills me inside.  He was a really great man that has done enormous things in his life. 

My brother and I got documented his roots as well as my mom's on a journey back to India where they were born and lived when they were young.  It was amazing to hear and see all the memories and stories pour out.  I find that he's alive the most when he's remembering those days of his life.  We still haven't done anything like that here for when he first landed in Fargo, ND in the late 1960s.  I want to go back with him before time runs out.

I agree.  And strangely enough I know what you mean about him not really him.  My dad is already slipping from the man I knew and when his time comes, I will feel the exact feeling you just described.

Try to make the most of what you can now, trust me. You are in a different position but definitely do what you can.

Condolences.

And +1 to the above.

Thanks, rowdy!

It's pretty terrible. Dries your mouth right out instantly, and taste far too strong for their own good.

Yeah it's pretty not great.  The first one I tried wasn't terrible, cause it didn't have too many alpha acids, but the second one...whooooo, boy.  Not good.  :-X

It's basically all of the bitter/hoppy flavors of a beer, concentrated, and the aftertaste is worse than the initial taste.

I definitely recommend it though, it's an interesting experience.


And condolences to SploogeFactory.  I can't even imagine.

Oh they can.  How much do you pay each term you're in school?  Do you have to stay an extra term because you can't get the class you need?  Cha-Ching!  More revenue for the school!

Welcome to state college.  Programs are impacted and they don't have enough spots for the students who need to take them, putting the students on the 5-6 year plan.  At the same time, they hold classes for 50 people in rooms that hold 200.

I'm not surprised based on my performance, definitely cut GR's to Low, barely a noticeable difference at all. I have also forced AMD Optimized Tessellation in CCC, definitely do that one, Nvidia may have struck again with gameworks lol, *******s.

Is this where the cool kids are hanging out now? I didn't do anything super exciting today. Just messing around with the new League patch that came out. Debating buying a TGR Jane, but it's kinda pricey for a keyboard. Think a HHKB might be a more reasonable investment (i.e. one that won't get me killed by the wife).

Got a new customer's cloud up and running.  It was a mess when I got in there, but so far things are moving along pretty well.  Still early in the engagement though.  Still have to migrate all their VMs from ESX to their cloud.  That should be fun.  :P

I let my keyboard try coffee for the first time today.

Although it seemed to enjoy it, I doubt I will let it have more coffee in the future.

Its ok, as soon as it happened the first thing I did was pull the plug. It had to have been within 1 second, I didn't even think about doing it. Just happened instinctively.

I pulled the caps and cleaned the external parts with baby wipes and cottonbuds. Just finished dismantling the board to let everything dry properly just in case.

I will probably give it a week before reassembly.....

and now I am off to perform self–flagellation for about 5 hours until the gods of Topre forgive me.

If I ever clean it idk what I am going to do with it. I might get the switches out of it because for some reason FEENIX switches feel like breds (like if a red and a brown had a baby) I may just end up lubing them and putting them in another board

My sister had my kids sleep over last night and that means I have had a night and morning to myself. It is amazing. This is what peace feels like.

Pretty happy with this setup.  Launching new websites now takes minutes and deploying new changes is a single command line.  BOOM!!!

Ya. I am currently hosting my sites for free on gh-pages (guide (http://swillops.com/blog/hugo-on-gh-pages/)), but I get free resources on cloud.ca, so i am trying to consolidate there. Looking to potentially offer free hosting of static sites with this method on cloud.ca. Just have to build the end user ui at this point and make sure I can convince the cloud.ca team its a good idea to give us more visibility.

Looking to potentially offer free hosting of static sites with this method on cloud.ca. Just have to build the end user ui at this point and make sure I can convince the cloud.ca team its a good idea to give us more visibility.
It's low-cost and low-risk, as long as you have someone to police the content they post. Not a bad idea.

Wrote a couple applications to make it so I can host all my static websites (built with Hugo | gohugo.io) on the cloud.ca OpenStack Swift object store.  Basically, one tool builds and deploys the site and makes sure the object store is configured to server the site publically.  The other tool is a simple reverse proxy which translates 'my-domains.com' to their respective 'my-domains.com' container in the object store...

Pretty happy with this setup.  Launching new websites now takes minutes and deploying new changes is a single command line.  BOOM!!!

Ya. No one else can merge files into your git repo directly, so you don't have to worry about the content changing. People could create pull requests if they have suggested content changes.

Let me work out the details first. It may take me a week or so to build the public service web ui and sort out the details with the cloud.ca team.

FYI, a blog is not a static website. It changes every time you last something, or somebody comments, etc. This requires a dynamic backend (PHP or similar), and usually a database of some kind. That's beyond the scope of the static hosting swill is talking about.

Well, you do have some searching options now (bottom of the page at https://gohugo.io/tools/), so that is interesting.  Bleve search is the same search engine I am using for my pm_search (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=76257.msg1902455#msg1902455) tool.

Static sites are becoming pretty interesting for most people's needs now.

Ya. When we bought this place last year, there was a wall where the peninsula is and everything was original 1940s. I took down the wall and gutted everything back to the studs and rebuilt it. I told my wife "if I am doing all this work, we are putting in gas". We did not have gas on our street, so I brought in a propane tank just for our stove. Love it though...

Ouch!  Almost did this a few times drinking a protein drink while working.  Never again.  A few close calls and food and drink are now banned from my desk.  Or course, it's handy that the kitchen is right in the next room where I can eat in peace anyways.

Went to work, left for a pre-op exam around lunch, went back to work.  Surgery tomorrow though, so that's fun!

Hope the surgery goes well!!  :)

Thanks, its laparoscopic so it shouldn't be a big deal, but if things work out well I will be able to get off a ton of medication which of course frees up more funds for keyboards and keysets :)

Excellent! laparoscopic is good.  :) can still hurt depending, but less than the alternative. (From my limited experience)

It will be my first surgery, besides getting my wisdom teeth removed almost 15 years ago, so we will see how it goes.  They are saying probably just an overnight stay, but possibly two if they are having issues getting my medication locked in.

Move to the UK mate, meds are free there and we have a keyboard shop :p

Well, I just hit my deductible so it should be a rather cheap surgery at around $1000, if things go as planned.  I have a pre-exisiting condition that wouldn't have enabled me to get this surgery done a couple years ago so I'll go ahead and throw a "Thanks Obama!" out there!

Browsed the classifieds, ate green tea Kit Kats and pretended to work
How are those green tea kit kats?  I see them at the asian store where my wife gets her super-hot chilis, but am not sure if I'd like them.

They're delicious.  Try them.

Yep way better

Imo they should get rid of the original style so they can make green tea kks in greater quantities
That's enough encouragement for me.  I'll buy them on the next trip to the asian market.  :thumb:

D: so jelly. The game isn't as great as I had hoped, I was hoping for more runaway Bengals plays, but there we go.

The defense was a ton of fun to watch but the offensive was sad. We left mid fourth quarter because it was getting cold and we couldn't bear to watch another three and out from Dalton.

FWIW I have no complaints about the various Tai Hao sets I have.  I was in on the original GB, and they have consistent legends, no major defects (actually no real defects at all), fit well, and even include the only doubleshot blanks I have ever seen!

I also have a Tai Hao PBT - it feels grainy, as it should, and it also consistent and defect-free.

Bro, don't diss Miss Silvia. She is a beast, but you must know how to finesse her to get the god shots. With her old mechanical thermostats (pictured above), you had to wait for HER to be good and ready. When she was heating, you waited until that precious moment when she's done heating up. That's when you hit her with the shot.

Right now she needs a break. She's all over the place.

Soon she will have a nice PID temperament, and she will always be ready at the exact temperature I ask her to be at. I will even be able to communicate with her. I can tell her what I need through a Bluetooth connection and she will talk back to me saying "yes master, I will obey you, would you like steam too?"  Yes, some of the intrigue and the pursuit of the hunt for the perfect temp will be lost. But she will still have the strength of her commercial boiler and group head, and the passion of her high output heating coil. And now she will be [gasp] logical!

Had a similar experience yesterday - managed to palm off one of the most awful spreadsheets I've ever encountered to someone else

Today I learned the idiom "palm off", and that it has the same meaning as "pawn off".  :thumb:

Glad everyone took a step forward today since mine was just a huge step backwards. 

Days behind on a project with a deadline and boom--main server hd stops responding after a power blip.  Everything else came back up fine except that hd.  And it's an enterprise class drive too! (like all the others).  Spent the whole day making sure the backups had proper data integrity and reinforcing the power filtering on the server to prevent this in the future.

It was a really sucky day.  :'( :'( :'( :'(

So this doe runs across and almost hits the car in front of me, he slams the brakes so I was already braking when the buck ran out. I probably hit him going 20-25 so not too bad. He jumped a bit so he mostly crushed the hood, didn't set off the air bag or break the windshield. The car was totally drivable but the radiator had a huge crack so it dumped liquid faster than it could be poured in.

Some dude stopped to see if I was ok and he asked if he could take the deer, but I did get an antler that flew off. He also followed while I limped the car a few miles to the closest town. I found a shop and they gave me a car for the week while it's worked on.

The deer was really ****ed up, because he jumped he flew about 20ft and I broke all his legs on impact. The deer's eyes were the most crazy color, you could tell they were dead, it was weird.

Dude, venison is really good.  Venison sausage and steaks are popular to make, as well as smoked jerky and sausage (among others, I'm sure).  Mmmmmmmmm.  I'm not a hunter myself, but I sure do love when my coworkers and relatives share their meat.

Didn't really catch up on sleep for the last 4 days, but I did finally get to take a shower after hosting Thanksgiving for a bunch of friends at our house.  Had to assemble two ikea Ingolf chairs and a bench for our table though.  (On a side note, the current ingolfs are nothing like the originals we bought--super cheaply constructed now with all the solidity taken out of them.  If I would have seen this before we got ours, I would have looked for the v1 style used somewhere.)

Went to best buy and picked up my first keyboard with a different switch than a buckling spring--the mx blues on a logitech g710.  I'm typing with it now, but I'm having a hard time not bottoming and trying to only put enough force for the actuation point.  It's a bit of a challenge.  But the switch force is definitely lighter than the BS M.  I got it for $50 at best buy's black friday sale so even if I don't like it, I'm sure I can resell it and get my money back out of it.

I was helping a friend by a brand new 2015 rav4 this weekend--got it for $26k out the door when the sticker was $27869.  :thumb:

My wife and I brought the kids and went out and picked out a new mattress and box spring for ourselves :)  Then when we were bringing it inside when the box spring lunged forward and ripped my big toenail off :(
OUCH!  I hope everything turned out okay.  That can be uber painful.  I've had just part of mine ripped off before and it hurt like anything.

What is she looking for?

I spent my hours that I wasn't at work or asleep this weekend putting up a chest of drawers and a wardrobe from IKEA. They said I needed two packs of hinges for the doors to the wardrobe, but it turns out we needed four... I don't really want to go back to IKEA just for two bags of hinges, but at the moment we only have half of our doors on the wardrobes... Weird.

Edit: I went to order some online - Ł10 per pack, Ł35 delivery charge. What the ****.

Shot a bunch of guns today for about 5 hours and ended the day shooting some explosive powder in a Big Bird head that blew up quite well. Maybe upload the video tomorrow.

Christmas shopping! And while it wasn't today, yesterday I *finally* finished my NerD 60 build.

All in all, it was a good weekend.

I don't even know what everything was. Probably 25 different guns. Pistols and revolvers including, 22, 9mm, .40, .44 .45, 357, .38. Rifles in 7.62, .308, 9mm, .45, 223, 22, 30.06 an AK, and some custom built AR-15s and a few different 12 gauge shotguns. There were also some custom rounds I think that were 223 in a 308 casing? There was quite a bit going on with selections and ammunition types. One thing that was fun was one guy had a gun with about 20 mags that held 40 rounds and he wanted them all burned off because the ammo was **** according to him. So nice to squeeze out a few clips as fast as I could pull the trigger. Nothing really exotic or full auto but still a damn good time.

Edit: My favorite shot of the day. Crossbow arrow I shot with open sights on a Ruger 10-22 at 100ft/30 meters

The only time I've really thought about sports during all of this was a few days ago after I started playing squash at school for the first time and realized its insanely fun and that it would be awesome to have some courts on campus to play on. Luckily a bunch of these northeast school have courts ;D

The only time I've really thought about sports during all of this was a few days ago after I started playing squash at school for the first time and realized its insanely fun and that it would be awesome to have some courts on campus to play on. Luckily a bunch of these northeast school have courts ;D

Squash?  Go get 'em, bud!

Just got back from furniture shopping. Man, it never ceases to amaze me how expensive furniture is...    My entire life so far I have inherited furniture or purchased from Goodwill, so I've paid $0-20 for the various items. Now I'm considering spending $1600.    Granted, it is excellent quality and would last for a very long time (and is infinitely better for my ergonomics than the free stuff I get), but I have this weird mental block with it.  :-X

Nooooo, byker's on to me!  :-[  This is something I've been planning for awhile, but was putting off because I hate spending money like this.  But my free couch has reached the point where it honestly hurts my back to sit/slouch/lie/whatever on, so I really want to get something that will be comfortable and lasting.  But yeah, the "smart" thing to do would be to pay off my loans - or what if I have back issues from my couch that would cost me more??  :confused:

Haha, I am just winding you up, because about 5 posts up you said thats what the extra money is going to!  :) I do agree with you that it is probably a good idea to replace the couch before you create extra problems. Back pain is never fun :(

It sure is easy to change a bearing when it comes out like this.

This is the outer race.
[attach=1]

The rest of it looks like this after a quick cleaning.

There was no destructive removal of it, this is what it looked like when the top half of the housing was removed.

It is from a large rotary dryer.  The drum and shaft weigh in the realm of 90,000 pounds.  The inside diameter is about 15 and 3/4 inch and the rolling element alone is 700 pounds.

This is the bull gear that mounts to the shaft.  Don't remember the diameter but it alone weighs 7,960 pounds.

Trying to get my daughter to practice her times tables, I ended up getting a couple of 12 sided dice and rolling them across the table and seeing who could multiply the numbers together the quickest.

It was actually fun, I think we'll tying again.

I have some 20 sided dice for when she gets a bit older too ;)

Actually they do have a good pm schedule.  But there is 280° F steam that runs through the shaft.  What we think happened is the steam cooked the grease, and that stuff kept new grease from getting to the bearing.

Ahh, gotcha.  I figured there would be a grease for that application that wouldn't do that.  Or at the very least, the bearing would have showed signs of wear before exploding, haha.  But I obviously don't know the details or that process at all.  :)

A line like this would be scary but when your in the moment it's calming. I haven't done anything nearly this cool but even the lines 20ft off the ground just calm you down. You focus on staying up but as a side effect you forget about everything else.

Slept in today and skipped work after suffering some minor but otherwise tiring allergic reactions to accidentally eating some clams.
Then went to my regular chiropractic appointment.
Then switched out the cherry mx clear springs out of my Poker X and put the Gateron browns back because it was just too heavy.
And now here we are.

You act like there is another way to get to the Google search!  Everyone knows you need to use another search engine to bring up the Googles.

Slept until 4pm.
Woke up and ate some candy.
Felt bored so I went back to bed for an hour or so.
Cat woke me up with face licks.
Cruised YouTube a little bit.
Now I am drinking this bottle of wine.

+1 warehouse look.

Back in the day at my parent's place, the light shade in my room broke so I just had a bare bulb hanging from the ceiling.

Then on top of that I used to collect printer paper boxes, which were a really great size to fill with stuff and not be too heavy to lift.

I had around 50 such boxes.  In stacks around the room.

Several friends commented that the room looked like a warehouse ;D

Went to the gym at lunch, psyched.  Big squatting day.

Back decided if was iffy.  It had been giving me problems after the workout on Friday but was otherwise pretty mellow over a very relaxed weekend.

I load up, go through my warmup sets and get to my working sets.

365 lbs?  No problem.

410 x3?  Done.

460?  Back quickly decided against it while I'm at the bottom of the squat.  Into the catch arms the bar goes.  Oh well.  I was able to hit 425, at least.  I was hoping to hit 460, too.  It would have been a PR for me since I haven't maxed out in a while.

Most likely will give it another go next week possible.  It depends on schedule.

McLaren P1 GTR, 2x 650S, 2x 12C
Lamborghini Huracan
Tesla P90D, 2x P85D
Ferrari California's & California T's, many F430s, 5x 458, 2x FF, F12, 328 GTO, 308, 550, 348, 250 & Enzo.
Some other Porsches in there including a 911 GT3 RS & Cayman GT4.

Great day.

I also spent some time at KPMG Manchester but not sure if that lives up to some of the cars I saw today.

Went to the gym at lunch, psyched.  Big squatting day.

Back decided if was iffy.  It had been giving me problems after the workout on Friday but was otherwise pretty mellow over a very relaxed weekend.

I load up, go through my warmup sets and get to my working sets.

365 lbs?  No problem.

410 x3?  Done.

460?  Back quickly decided against it while I'm at the bottom of the squat.  Into the catch arms the bar goes.  Oh well.  I was able to hit 425, at least.  I was hoping to hit 460, too.  It would have been a PR for me since I haven't maxed out in a while.

Most likely will give it another go next week possible.  It depends on schedule.

Damn that sucks man.

Mind if I ask your weight?

You should get some nicer boxes unless you like the warehouse look

+1 warehouse look.

Back in the day at my parent's place, the light shade in my room broke so I just had a bare bulb hanging from the ceiling.

Then on top of that I used to collect printer paper boxes, which were a really great size to fill with stuff and not be too heavy to lift.

I had around 50 such boxes.  In stacks around the room.

Several friends commented that the room looked like a warehouse ;D

@rowdy What was in the boxes? :eek:


All sorts of stuff - papers, clothes, toys, bits of computer hardware, magazines.

It's sitting about the 199-200lb range right now.  I was iffy on the day as it was so I'm not overly bummed about it as I'll have a couple weeks to work through that before going into a new routine.  It would have been nice to hit it but not everything goes your way.  Still, I made sure to hit depth on the 425.  I'm pretty pleased with that.  I was tempted to go higher but ended up doing 315x7 after that, then front squats.

My back was behaving today and deadlifts were good.  505 lbs completed.  It wasn't as difficult as I was expecting, either.  Very please to break the 500 mark.

As a bonus, I was without a lunch from home but a bunch of people brought in food for a potluck so I had plenty to chose from this morning to save for lunch.  Mmmm cheese and chili tamales.

Add 5 lbs per week to the weight being lifted.  I started out lifting deadlifts at 135 lbs.  I added 5 lbs a week to the starting weight of 135.


For that, it's on the slower side of beginning routines.  Something like Starting Strength or Stong Lifts would have you add 5 lbs per session with squats 3 times a week.  It can add up quickly.  I went more the Greyskull LP route of 5 lbs per week as you can stick to the routine longer.  Plus I started later in life without the youthful recovery so I thought it better to play it safe.  5 lbs a week adds up quickly enough.

As a bonus, I was without a lunch from home but a bunch of people brought in food for a potluck so I had plenty to chose from this morning to save for lunch.  Mmmm cheese and chili tamales.

I could maybe do 1/5 of that

We all start somewhere.  I started at 135 and 5 lbs a week from there, then every other week when weekly got too much.  Now it's 10 lbs a month if that.

Gain 5lbs a week?   That's not possible.

Add 5 lbs per week to the weight being lifted.  I started out lifting deadlifts at 135 lbs.  I added 5 lbs a week to the starting weight of 135.


For that, it's on the slower side of beginning routines.  Something like Starting Strength or Stong Lifts would have you add 5 lbs per session with squats 3 times a week.  It can add up quickly.  I went more the Greyskull LP route of 5 lbs per week as you can stick to the routine longer.  Plus I started later in life without the youthful recovery so I thought it better to play it safe.  5 lbs a week adds up quickly enough.

Yeah I was doing like a mark rippetoe thing before, I varied it myself but it would have you pretty much double the weight per week at the start, I went from 60kg squats to 120kg in like six months.

Yeah, Rip does not screw around.  I keep looking at Texas Method but with Wednesday being intended as light, it means I'm loading up one day with squats, bench, and deadlifts.  Lots of people have mentioned putting that on Fridays though I'm not sure how much I want to hit 1x5 on deadlifts after a heavy set of 5 on squats.

Finished up round 9 of 351 PL and will be doing Candito's 6 week routine starting on the 11th.  That should be interesting as I haven't had that much squat volume in a while.

I thought the movie was pretty entertaining, I saw it Sunday. I actually want to go back and watch it in 3D, I heard it was pretty well done and helps give a better perspective of the size of everything. I'm pretty sure Disney's plan is to pump out four more movies in the next four years or so, I'm curious to see how it's all going to turn out.

Saw Star Wars! Already knew about some of the major spoilers from reading EU years back... but pretty cool film.

I thought the movie was pretty entertaining, I saw it Sunday. I actually want to go back and watch it in 3D, I heard it was pretty well done and helps give a better perspective of the size of everything. I'm pretty sure Disney's plan is to pump out four more movies in the next four years or so, I'm curious to see how it's all going to turn out.

I saw it in 3D. Thought it was pretty well done for 3D, but I've always been kind of against it so I'm by no means experienced in that regard (haven't seen many 3D movies).

Anyway, one of the weird things that bugged me was there were three or four times they'd be walking past something and the perspectives looked like they were going to run into it but they ended up not. Don't know if that's a fault of the 3D-ness or my eyes playing tricks on me.  :blank:

i didn't do anything to exciting today, aside from doing something stupid out of curiosity. 

Seeing a retractable pen spring on my desk and realizing it was almost the exact same diameter of a cherry spring.... i had to try it. measuring with a kitchen scale my clear switch had an actuation force of about 65 grams, but with the new spring it had an actuation force of 340 grams, or 1/4 lb. The polar opposite of an ergo clear times 10.

This happened 2 days ago

Decided to take a halfday at work to finish some holiday shopping. Did not tell my lovely gf I was doing this.

Stop home and noticed she was in the shower, so I sneak in and grabbed her shoulder...

Worst mistake of my life, as she let out a rapey like scream and slipped in the shower. My awesome boyfriend skills catch her but she decides to punch and claw my face...

I will never be doing that again

That was how mine was until we had kids.  The last move we did earlier this year, my first priority was the stereo in the garage.  For what its worth, the garage is insulated, heated, and has an AC unit that is probably older that me, and has more square footage than the house.

After we get it cleaned out from the move (we inherited her dads house that he was living in when he passed, so its packed with crap), I am going with WWII style pin up girls for the decorating theme.  This already has the OK from the wife.  So long as the images are relatively SFW.

Just out of curiosity, how does a ticket like that work?  Is it more or less than a person and do they have any requirements like a cage, weight limit, etc?

Reason I ask is that one day I want my wife to have her dog Benji visit us in the US.  He'll hate it, but maybe he will get how good he has it back in India after the trip.

So with domestic, which is what my dogs flight was. I paid a  company to organise it but essentally they go as baggage. My dogs flight was 900 AUD for about a 5 hour flight (thats a guess o  flight time). This includes pickup and drop off from airport so flight was probebly about 500-600. If you fly with your dog you can check them in as excess baggage but  you have to provide cage or pay for rental.

International is a little more complex depending on country but coming into australia (i would say the same for US) your dog has to go into quarintine for a period of time. Just guessing but about 3 to 6 weeks. Cages also have requirements set by airlines. So the dog has to be able to stand and do a 360 in the cage for it to be accepted.

Hah!  Good call.

And yes!  Die Hard is totally a Christmas movie.  My best friend, who happens to have studied film, watched it as part of his Xmas Xperiment blog series 4 years ago (http://abundant-appreciation.tumblr.com/post/13951859826/xmas-xperiment-day-8-die-hard).  He watched a Christmas movie / TV special every day from Dec 1 to Dec 25.  It was grueling (perhaps even moreso as his roommate :P ).

Speaking of which...everyone needs to watch Clone High's Snowflake Day special (http://abundant-appreciation.tumblr.com/post/14495808215/xmas-xperiment-day-19-snowflake-day-clone).  No seriously.  Do it.  You can thank me later.

Yeah yeah. To be honest I probably ****ed most of the soldering up anyways, I'm not really in the proper state of rest to be doing things like this.

Ah damn, sorry to hear that. It'll be an amazing gift and I'm sure they'll understand once you get it done and give it to them. I always like to order 1.5x to 2x the amount I need so I won't be short and have spares for my next build.

Do you know if there's anywhere speedy to get them from besides wkl? All the stores on ebay are from china, and my local hardware store doesn't have specifically 1n4148w diodes.

Last time I saw that much snow was in Miami in the early 80s.

Today I got a haircut. Also I've been hiding out in the computer room gaming and now posting on here. Wife is doing holiday baking and I can hear the sounds of frustration so I'm staying put with the door shut. One thing I know she made is Caramel Macchiato Cheesecake. I'm so getting sick tomorrow.

A few years ago she made a few dozen of them and I told the guys at work I would bring a dozen or so in. I ended up dropping them on the kitchen floor that morning. The floor had been neglected for too long so they ended up with a good helping of cat hair and dirt/dust/etc from the floor. When I tried explaining this it was expressed with anger how that didn't matter and they would have eaten them anyway and picked the extra stuff out of their teeth.

Actually, only 2 or 3 of them were in a recoverable state and I ate those.

Got the keys to my new house (rental but still good to have an address again). My dog arrives by plane tomorrow after not seeing him for 2 weeks YAY.
Just out of curiosity, how does a ticket like that work?  Is it more or less than a person and do they have any requirements like a cage, weight limit, etc?

Reason I ask is that one day I want my wife to have her dog Benji visit us in the US.  He'll hate it, but maybe he will get how good he has it back in India after the trip.

Congrats on the engagement!  First the engagement ring, then the wedding ring, and then the suffering, hahaha!

So with domestic, which is what my dogs flight was. I paid a  company to organise it but essentally they go as baggage. My dogs flight was 900 AUD for about a 5 hour flight (thats a guess o  flight time). This includes pickup and drop off from airport so flight was probebly about 500-600. If you fly with your dog you can check them in as excess baggage but  you have to provide cage or pay for rental.

International is a little more complex depending on country but coming into australia (i would say the same for US) your dog has to go into quarintine for a period of time. Just guessing but about 3 to 6 weeks. Cages also have requirements set by airlines. So the dog has to be able to stand and do a 360 in the cage for it to be accepted.
Thank you for the feedback!  He's never survive that quarantine, haha.  He's hand fed every meal!  Definitely spoiled but protects his family to the point that a door bell has him barking endlessly until they tell him it's okay.

Got back home yesterday evening after travelling for almost 30hrs, took a proper shower, and passed out.  Woke up around 4am to drink water and eat and been up since.  Fixed some routing issues with our main business router, but still need to fix all of it and the Internet outages.  Spent some time on GH.  Let's see if I crash from the jetlag and time difference or sleep on time to wake Monday morning on a regular schedule.

Woke up on time today ready for work after a whirlwind of tasks that messed up my attempt to wake Monday morning.

We got our first healthy dumping of snow and sleet--9in and .9in respectively--setting new records.  Hence why I was up all night Sunday working on the car swapping to the winter set and fluid filming anything that might get rusty this year. 

It all paid off yesterday when picking up my wife from work--the streets were the biggest mess we've ever seen with cars stuck all over the place.  Luckily, I was able to just point in a direction and go without any drama thanks to the tires and awd. 

Saw some crazy things though--like a bus that was sliding backwards on a hill.  :eek:  I've never seen the dual axles on a bus spin before--I always thought they'd be heavy enough to have grip.  I guess not.

Yep!  Looks like Milwaukee is back too, lol.  But not for long, work is pending in HSV.  And then it's going to be back and forth for the next few weeks with some other travel thrown in as well.  This year is going to be much crazier for me travel-wise.  I've already got another two international trips to plan by June.  :eek:

I just want a good month at home in bed.

...could they do USBs?  It just so happens that the owner has been wanting a Model M for awhile and I could probably convince him to pick some up, although it wouldn't be to the tune of hundreds but rather more like 50 max.

HSV is the airport code for Huntsville, Alabama.  :cool:


Okay, thanks :)

Being responsible is so boring though, why not stop in just for a peek?  It's like when you're playing Civilization and you need just one more turn.

Lol imagining a whole office of model Ms, the sound would be delightful for some and completely terrible for others.
I bet it would be no different than the steno pools back in the 1950s.  :eek:

There were surprisingly few people there today.  Not an empty beach, by any means, but more than enough space to be a very comfortable distance away from anyone else.

See, I went through every flavor in that game playing with friends and I didn't think any of the bad flavors were all that bad. Skunk spray I almost just thought was a really odd and weak licorice, and the stinky sock kinda tasted like gorgonzola cheese (a bit off-putting, but not that bad per say)

Some key doesn't register so I open the case once more to see that there is water on the pcb. Cleaned it off and thanks god It work and the feel is so much better than using the thick lube. Some info for people who wants to lube topre don't use thick lube it will make the switch feel mushy and heavier use lube with low viscocity like ek mechlube 2. ro 59 or krytox 100 series.

Which is about 15c - that's a comfortable temperature.

It is summer over here, but was only about 24C (75F) when we went.  4/8 cloud cover, which meant only about half direct sun.  Plenty of wind.

Well, if it's a very fine grain of sand, you need soap,  because the sand is stuck to the oil on your skin.. The soap removes the oil and thereby the sand.

After getting the idea from a live stream i decided to play around with coiling my own cables.

I got a cheap cloth sleeved cable a week or so ago so that's what i tried it on, I wrapped it tight around a couple pencils taped together before wrapping the uncoiled part and connectors in foil and placed it in my toaster oven, bringing it up to 300 Fahrenheit quickly  then down to 200 for about 15 minutes. then i put it in the freezer for 20 minutes. I like they way it turned out visually, but i dont imagine it will hold the coil if its stretched out at all,  so ill probably use it for my cable i bring to class with my board where i dont need more than a few foot cable.

Finished modding an Unsaver plate for win keys, and adding the 4 keys around the arrows.  Results should be very repeatable with the jig I have made.  I wish could show pis for the completed keyboard, but all I have is the top plate and the mat. Holes in the plate also have slots for AT style barrels.

There's no reason to pay for Brand Name Vodka..


The whole point of vodka is to be as tasteless as possible..

IF ANYTHING,   the no-name vodkas are far more industrial than the Branded counterparts.


The branded Vodkas usually add some sort of perfume or flavoring for their stuff to be recognizable.

Where as  No-Name Vodka is just that,  as industrial as possible...


Given modern technologies, it doesn't even take that much to get a very high quality , high purity product..


You guys really need to try Costco Vodka.. it's fantastic.. . it's sold under the Kirkland brand (costco in house brand)

I find lots of ****ty vodkas taste more than less taste. Less distilling will mean more impurities.

If I'm doing all night vodka..  I usually have 3 shots straight at the door..   Then I get 1 shot mixed with a new soda that I haven't tried before and sip...


Since i'm doing the straight as fast as humanly possible..   I don't mind the taste all that much.

Absolut is not exactly brandless.  Top vodka from Sweden (something like that).

My favourite is Absolut Vanilla.  Smooth.  Sweet :)

Or Wisent - that's nice.  You can drink a lot of that without realising you are drinking a lot of that without realising you are drinking a lot of that..

Some people like vodka because its like the ultimate mixer.  Because it has little to no flavor, you can mix it with things that you couldn't or wouldn't mix rum or whiskey into.  Personally, I drink maybe a couple times a year now so all liquors have specific tastes, and of those tastes I enjoy none of them.

I finally took a few hours to play with some new toys--a Chicony, and NMB Right Touch, and a FK-2001.

Very interesting to feel those vintage feels and then type this on an M.  You can tell they are copies of the real thing, but really nice copies.  Now, the challenge is what system to put them on.  I powered up the old Toshiba Tecra laptop running win95 just to give them the whole vintage shakedown.   :cool:

The FK-2001 was rescued for <$10 and some of the keys were sticking or not working until I tested it.  It's still pretty dirty and really scratchy, so I'll probably have to figure out what alps are in there and how to clean them up.  I think the board will clean up nicely though.  The other two were in very, very nice condition (thank you Badwrench) so I was able to plug them in and enjoy them immediately.  :thumb:

Got my first pair of contact lenses and OH MY they're fab.

Here's a tip I learned from a long time user..

Soak several pairs at the same time, and rotate them.

You'll soon notice that if you only soak a single pair overnight,  sometimes they do not feel as soft, because they're not always fully hydrated..

But if you soak say 3 pairs,  each pair would've been soaking for 3 days before you began using them.. THerefore, they will feel fresh and soft..


I soak 7 pairs at the same time,  and rotate through them..  always feels soft

Out for my birthday today.  Wife set us up on a beer tour in north couty sd to Rip Current, Booze Brothers, and Belching Beaver.  Tons of great beer, lunch from Phils bbq, and a surprise showing of friends at Booze Brothers.  A wonderful day.  (http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/16/01/09/83eb4e745f03e1a1e916c1eace9242c0.jpg)

Today I learned, when sorting keycaps for a GB, set up a standing-height table/work surface... My back is killing me.

I also learned that offering a la carte blank keycaps makes for a ton of extra work. But hey, we got through it, so yay.

Don't let him fool you, 10 is a pretty damn good OS.  The only issue I have with it is finding settings and stuff.  They are kind of spread out in a couple spots.  The only reason I still have dual boot with 7 is because my copy of SolidWorks won't install on 10.  But this is something that the company has been known for, not updating to the newest OS for a good while.

The same can be said of moving from xp to win 7.  I have to migrate to some faster hardware for my mom's workstation and after messing around for 4 hrs I've decided to screw trying to lock down the win 7 machine and just build an xp system that I can put windows steadystate on and be done. 

I don't see how corporate america deals with the productivity loss from these 'upgrades'.  But I'm glad I do because my MSFT stock is my retirement!

Probably, IT builds a custom ISO install or something that has all the settings setup, so the don't have to change them on each machine.  Plus, if you do anything with money online with XP, you are just setting yourself up for massive issues.  Microsoft, hasn't been fixing security issues with it for months.  I just built my parents a win 10 box, and they are happy with it.  Their previous PC was built in 99.

After my parents had two credit cards compromised by bad decisions and windows 7, I locked everything down with thin clients that get rebooted every day.  My brother's work laptop is very ocd about malware and the like so when he connects it to the network and finds nothing, I know it's clean. ;)  Deep Freeze is a good solution for win7+, but I don't want to have to spend all that time and money just to have the same solution that steadystate basically does out of the box.

Not trying to sound demeaning, but how did Win 7 compromise 2 separate credit cards?  I have been shopping online for years, started right before Vista, but never had that OS, went to 7, 8, 8.1, and now 10.  Never had an issue.  Granted, I am careful about what sites I go to, VERY rarely click advertisement banners, (if I see something in an ad I am curious on, I google it), and before I put in any CC info, I make sure it is HTTPS.

It didn't, but when you have two seniors who basically click on anything that pops up that looks like a windows dialog box (and other stuff too), it definitely didn't make it easy with all the OS clutter.

There's a part of me that actually wants to just build some 98se systems and let them use those as it should keep them out of trouble by not allowing them to even go to sites.  :))  But alas, we actually have some real work to do.  I guess they can play on tablets, but I still have to watch their email, mail, and phone calls like a hawk.  The amount of scams targeted to seniors with any money is insane.  I almost can't wait to start auditing their health care bills to see what ripping off is going on there...

Earlier this week while I was doing something unrelated I happened upon some malware on our marketing director's computer which she was unaware of.  Apparently we have had like 3-4 of the business credit cards get compromised in the last couple months and no one knew why, but she was using all of those cards on her computer so I think it was probably that.  The odd thing is that the computer she was using was sent from the office our IT person is at and he personally set the thing up, but that's what you get for only relying on a basic anti-virus to stop things.

I have since again reiterated to the people who purchase stuff for our office to be very careful with what you click on, where you go, and to make sure the sites that you purchase from are secure.

I've had zero issues so far. I might actually like it. :eek:

I did a new windows 7 install, updated everything, installed a few apps then upgraded.

Had to update one driver which I knew would need updated and everything is working.

That's courageous of you!  Make sure you have backups and Windows 7 installation media so you can rollback later on.
I've had zero issues so far. I might actually like it. :eek:

I did a new windows 7 install, updated everything, installed a few apps then upgraded.

Had to update one driver which I knew would need updated and everything is working.

And dell doesn't even support windows 10 on my laptop. :P

Many of my arrrrgh stuff began glitching when I switched to win 10..

So,  can't have that.. hahahaha... gotta wait another 2 years for proper porting of all the important arrrgh.. tools.


and also, for whatever reason, my Ram Overclock wasn't as stable on Win 10 vs Win 7..

Got my first pair of contact lenses and OH MY they're fab.

Here's a tip I learned from a long time user..

Soak several pairs at the same time, and rotate them.

You'll soon notice that if you only soak a single pair overnight,  sometimes they do not feel as soft, because they're not always fully hydrated..

But if you soak say 3 pairs,  each pair would've been soaking for 3 days before you began using them.. THerefore, they will feel fresh and soft..


I soak 7 pairs at the same time,  and rotate through them..  always feels soft

I've got the 1 pair a month rather than dailies, cheaper for a student like me :rolleyes:

Yesterday I had them in and one felt like I was underwater, do I need to make sure it isn't holding much lubricant in it?

After about a 12 hour drive I'm here in Grand Junction, CO for work until Sunday or Monday(Jan 17/18). Was a cool but tiring trip. Being from southern AZ the amount of snow was ridiculous. Can't wait to get this done and get home. I'm a desert rat and this level of cold is too much.

No you want as much liquid as possible.. but don't blink too fast when yo ufirst put them in, otherwise it might pop out.


It's still better to saoak at least 2 pairs, even if you're using monthlies..   Realize you're still going to be using them for an entire month, only you'll be alternating..  so the max duration per pair is still 1 month

Makes me wonder though, Five Guys or In-N-Out?  Personally, I have had a lot more stuff from Five Guys but have had In-N-Out twice on the West Coast, and I think price-wise In-N-Out would win but overall I like the burgers and fries more at Five Guys.

I had tried Five Guys at a couple other places on vacation and such before we got one here about two years ago.  Their fries absolutely blow In-N-Out's fries out of the water but the burgers are much closer.  I feel like Five Guys is a really good standard burger, but In-N-Out's burgers are really good fast food burgers that allow more customization.

Being from Wisconsin, I can understand the love for Culvers and I really like their fries, cheese curds, and other sides, but their burgers make me nauseous when I eat them for some reason.  I can eat McDonalds, Burger King, and plenty of other "worse" burgers but for some reason I can't get burgers at Culvers.

Well that's just terrible.  :(  Sorry to hear.

It's all about that custard tho.  ^-^  Between their curds, o-rings, and custard...no need for any other places.  :)

I personally feel that this is the biggest thing for internet security, I have never ran anything for anti-virus except for the rare occasion I actually managed to catch something.  Though I do run CCleaner and Spybot frequently.
I agree.  The tricking of users is the easiest way.  My dad forwarded me a fake yahoo phishing email asking if it was legit--thank God he did, but this is the real problem, right?

Before I made our network and locked desktops, I started using Lightweight Portable Security for anything sensitive.  Great package to have with you on the go.

If you haven't, you're missing out!
Yes!  Lovely fries--unlimited fries.  I always end up taking the burger home after all the fries.  And the double patty...so...goood.

Culvers has nothing on Kopps!  :D Our friends from Canada couldn't get enough!  We were almost there every night for a month, lol.

I had tried Five Guys at a couple other places on vacation and such before we got one here about two years ago.  Their fries absolutely blow In-N-Out's fries out of the water but the burgers are much closer.  I feel like Five Guys is a really good standard burger, but In-N-Out's burgers are really good fast food burgers that allow more customization. 
I've had both too and I do like the 5 guys burger better.  It's been a while though.  You know what's missing from this discussion?  Whataburger!

You too?!  I thought it was just me.  I had to try Culvers after seeing the word 'Butterburger', but it didn't really do anything for me.

Quote from: Steezus on Mon, 11 January 2016, 11:37:02
I have to drive to the city to get me some Five Guys, the only competition around me is the standard fast food places that they obviously beat out. Never had In-N-Out or Culvers, sadly.
You're not missing much with these two imo.  They're a slight bit above the normal fast food fare.

Now, a really great burger is AJ Bombers downtown MKE.  I want to go there right this very second and have a quad patty 1lb burger.  Agh!  All this talk about burgers and I haven't had my fill after coming back from India yet...God Bless American Burgers  :thumb:

Bought Tickets for a LAN party up in seattle Washington being hosted by Tek Syndicate in april, kind of excited because it will be my first large lan party. Hoping to finish my Mini ITX PC by then and help the friend coming with me with his, luckily well be able to split gas and hotel costs to get up to seattle and stay a few days.  Trying to get out and be more social with other's that share my interests.

Makes me wonder though, Five Guys or In-N-Out?  Personally, I have had a lot more stuff from Five Guys but have had In-N-Out twice on the West Coast, and I think price-wise In-N-Out would win but overall I like the burgers and fries more at Five Guys.

In-N-Out. Five Guys is ok...but In-N-Out is a special treat.

It feels great! Ergo clears are awesome, definitely going to love the weight of them. The board itself is definitely the heaviest board I've got, pretty sure it weighs more than my 7G does. With the plate the build feels super solid.

And danke  :cool:

looks to be a camaro, the front was just completely ****ed. i dont even know how he got there and not knock down those 2 signs. i have a hero 4 silver, it's pretty cool. i have an arm on my headrest where i attach it and it gets a wide angle view of the dash. but i need those skeleton cases so i can run a usb to my usb port since the battery is absolute ****.

oh, and this road was just absolute ****. tons of gravel everywhere and just ****ty conditions all around. but we hit this patch of freshly paved road and it was so damn nice.

Oh nice. The picture quality looks really good. You weren't tempted to go for the black? Is there much of a difference? I have a dashcam I've been meaning to install for the longest time but I never get round to it. I need to pull the dash out and tuck it in all sorts of places and I really don't want to do it lmao.

Is that really all the difference? They are like Ł289 vsŁ399 or something. That's pretty decent.

I might invest in one if the dashcam I have ends up being ****ty.

Off the top of my head yeah that's the only difference. I'm sure there's more but tbh I didn't really look too much into it. Mostly saw the price difference and said eh too much $$

The thing about dash cam is,  They generally use low quality sensors and lenses. regardless of how "HD" they claim to be on the box,  it's almost always blurrrry.


I'm thinking of maybe taking apart an Older digi camcorder that can accept a large memory card..

THEN,  attach some active cooling onto the hot chips..

i was tempted but... im not ever going to be making youtube videos so i dont really need 4k or any of that fancy ****. plus the silver was cheaper, better battery life and it came with a touchscreen!

Is that really all the difference? They are like Ł289 vsŁ399 or something. That's pretty decent.

I might invest in one if the dashcam I have ends up being ****ty.

If you want a dashcam, this guy reviews lots of them: http://www.techmoan.com/

Yeah, i've seen his stuff. I've got one of his recommendations on my Amazon wish list but it's like Ł200. You do get front and back cameras and a separate GPS receiver though.

I also have my wife and I's tax return almost done and we're getting a pretty good refund this year, of which a portion will have to be allocated to keyboard paraphernalia and whatever my wife wants to buy but another portion will have to be allocated to paying for the surgery I had about 2 months ago :(

I can imagine. Well, I'm a social scientist / researcher (and a programmer), so data analysis is like what I do half of the time, including teaching people how to do it. People always confuse the null hypothesis with the alternative hypothesis and what a P-value means. But yeah, partly it makes sense that it is difficult to grasp because technically NHST isn't completely sound in terms of how it is used most of the time (Cohen, "Why The Earth Is Round").

I don't have the best knowledge of these things, but what always confused me was how inconsistent higher level stats were with whether a low or high number was good or bad.  Or maybe I wasn't taught by the best people, I dunno.  I'm also a learner by doing, and I was sitting in a class (Six Sigma) being told these things as rules rather than explanations, which is a sure way to make me not remember things.  :|

I can imagine - learning without context or wth you have to do with it later is pointless and makes it difficult to memorize and remember.

You probably find this the most boring topic ever (and that's OK of course), but basically the idea is that you have a research question for which you use data to verify the truth-value of that research question. To this end, you formulate a null hypothesis (statement of no effect, your research question is false) and an alternative hypothesis (statement of an effect, your research question is right, this is what you are interested in). You calculate with the null hypothesis, but you want to say something about your alternative hypothesis (the research question). So you need the null hypothesis to calculate the statistical test and its associated P-value, but you want to say something about the alternative hypothesis, which represents your research question.

The P-value that you calculate for a statistical test indicates the likelihood that the null hypothesis is true (not the whole story but this simplifies it for explanation). In other words, the P-value indicates the likelihood that you DID NOT find an effect. Now, if you find a P-value of .98 chances are EXTREMELY high that you DID NOT find an effect, or, that the null hypothesis is true. You now do not reject the null hypothesis and you conclude that your research question is not true and that you did not find an effect.

When you find a P-value of .02 chances are extremely SMALL that you DID NOT find an effect, or, that the null hypothesis is true. You do now reject the null hypothesis in favor of the alternative hypothesis and conclude that your research question is most likely to be true and conclude that you DID find an effect.

Mmm.. this paragraph turned out to be longer than I anticipated. I hope it wasn't too boring to read and that it made this difficult topic somewhat clearer!

This isn't boring in the slightest!  :))  I love stats, I just wish I understood it better.  :P  (plus, this ties into my career anyway) 
And this definitely helped to put things in really easy-to-understand terms.  No wonder your students understood it, haha.  I had managed to cobble together a bit of an understanding in my mind, but was never truly solid on it.  I don't know why the people that taught me didn't explain it like this, but oh well.  :)

I have been a student myself not understanding half of it back in the day. So that made me wonder what it was that the stats courses always lacked. And I pinpointed it to the notion that stats teachers oftentimes take shortcuts: of 4 possible combinations they explain 1, give super abstract examples, and expect of you that it makes perfect sense and that you can figure out the other 3 combinations on your own. They also oftentimes forget to explain every intermediate step from question to answer, or to connect the dots for you. All that stuff is what I'm trying to do, because I realize that students (at least) in the social sciences are not freakin' einstein's to which this stuff comes natural.

Today, I've lectured fellow undergrads on the basics of null-hypothesis significance testing. It seems they actually grasp the concepts as well. How's that for a day?

Whoa.  That's impressive.  Null-hypothesis stats things make my head hurt unless I "just follow the rules".  :))

I can imagine. Well, I'm a social scientist / researcher (and a programmer), so data analysis is like what I do half of the time, including teaching people how to do it. People always confuse the null hypothesis with the alternative hypothesis and what a P-value means. But yeah, partly it makes sense that it is difficult to grasp because technically NHST isn't completely sound in terms of how it is used most of the time (Cohen, "Why The Earth Is Round").

I don't have the best knowledge of these things, but what always confused me was how inconsistent higher level stats were with whether a low or high number was good or bad.  Or maybe I wasn't taught by the best people, I dunno.  I'm also a learner by doing, and I was sitting in a class (Six Sigma) being told these things as rules rather than explanations, which is a sure way to make me not remember things.  :|

I can imagine - learning without context or wth you have to do with it later is pointless and makes it difficult to memorize and remember.

You probably find this the most boring topic ever (and that's OK of course), but basically the idea is that you have a research question for which you use data to verify the truth-value of that research question. To this end, you formulate a null hypothesis (statement of no effect, your research question is false) and an alternative hypothesis (statement of an effect, your research question is right, this is what you are interested in). You calculate with the null hypothesis, but you want to say something about your alternative hypothesis (the research question). So you need the null hypothesis to calculate the statistical test and its associated P-value, but you want to say something about the alternative hypothesis, which represents your research question.

The P-value that you calculate for a statistical test indicates the likelihood that the null hypothesis is true (not the whole story but this simplifies it for explanation). In other words, the P-value indicates the likelihood that you DID NOT find an effect. Now, if you find a P-value of .98 chances are EXTREMELY high that you DID NOT find an effect, or, that the null hypothesis is true. You now do not reject the null hypothesis and you conclude that your research question is not true and that you did not find an effect.

When you find a P-value of .02 chances are extremely SMALL that you DID NOT find an effect, or, that the null hypothesis is true. You do now reject the null hypothesis in favor of the alternative hypothesis and conclude that your research question is most likely to be true and conclude that you DID find an effect.

Went to the gym.  It was deadlifts day on week 5 of Candito's 6 week routine.  490 lbs for 1-4 reps.  I managed 2.  The 3rd never even left the floor.  I was a bit bummed at that given I've pulled 505 previously and had this program was specifically designed around increasing the powerlifting trio.

Though part of it may be some leftover fatigue from having to pause the program for 2 weeks due to getting sick and trying to recover strength.  Still, I made my squat numbers a bit better with 3 reps.  Oh well.  I'll be maxing out next week so hopefully I can do pretty well before jumping into a new routine - possibly back to my modified 351 PL, possibly to Sheiko for 80kg intermediates.

Scrapping this idea for a cross cut sled.  The table top on my sled is nowhere close to flat.  So I am going a different route, and just bought 20 feet of adhesive backed UHMW.  For those not familiar, UHMW is a plastic frequently used in many industries, typically for its high abrasion resistance along with low friction properties.  It is also very easy to cut and shape, so long as you aren't using abrasives.  It is 1/3 the weight of aluminum, but has 15 times the abrasion resistance of carbon steel.  One of its primary downfalls, is it has almost zero load carrying capabilities on its own.  Needs support from another structure.  I have seen this material outlast AR500 steel plate when used in bulk material handling for soybeans.  Soybeans are just as abrasive as media blasting.  Will chew up regular carbon and stainless steels very quickly.

Removing the paint on the realforce plates as well as removing some rust using a vinegar.

Now what I need to do next is sanding these plates so the paint is nicely removed. Can someone help me with sanding and painting plates?

You need to sand before you paint. Not the other way around, that would be counter productive.

I use wet and dry sandpaper start off with a lower number like 800 sand one way so say left and right then move to 1000 and sand un down then 1200 left right etc. There is probebly a better guide to grots somewhere so this is just an example that depends on if you have not removed the paint

Well, practically never or once every 30000 km. But that's really mostly for the bearings.
I use it over longer distances and at higher speeds so I noticed for a while that it was running heavier than usual. (25000 km on it or so?)
Ordered a €20 maintenance kit, some ball bearings and some grease and that was it.

Most people won't have to do anything during the lifecycle of the bike.

I played Pokémon Yellow on my cousin's GB. Never had my own, and I couldn't save the game.
I bought FireRed when I got my DS Lite, and that was the first Pokémon game I owned.

Haven't played in a while. Thinking of getting a Yellow ROM hack so I can catch all 151 without trading.

I bought FireRed when I got my DS Lite, and that was the first Pokémon game I owned.

Haven't played in a while. Thinking of getting a Yellow ROM hack so I can catch all 151 without trading.

FireRed is good.  :)  ROM hack, eh?  I'll have to look into that.  Do they just sprinkle in the trade-only ones where they show up in other games?

OG Nintendo?! Dope son!

Looks like the GBA player. Nice.
Some day I'd love to own the Panasonic Q.

Yep, I'm playing Pokemon Blue on the GameBoy Player for GCN.  :)

I played Yellow growing up, so I'm still adjusting to not having Pikachu - dat separation anxiety tho.  ^-^

I played Blue originally on the original GameBoy with a bunch of buddies who all had Red.  Oddly enough when I moved a few years back I found my original big ass gray GameBoy with Blue still in it and still on the original save file I had opened almost 20 years ago!

I'll have to recheck. I think some gym leaders were beefed and some moves were altered, but otherwise they'd have some new method of catching them all.

Last night my roommate dumped an entire cup of juice on his keyboard  :-X so today I cleaned it all out, cleaned and lubed switches and modded the plate a bit.

Went from this:

to this:

but, I didn't like the black plate.. so I got some scotch brites and did this:
(https://dl2.pushbulletusercontent.com/zmtYIiLvC6TUT4BHyZ6pZ4ozRbNWTaGk/IMG_20160301_174654.jpg)

and lastly with some placeholder keys, gotta find me a TKL pcb now I guess.

You can't anodize steel, might just oil it a bit, I really doubt there will be enough moisture to rust the plate (unless someone spills juice on it again)

You can anodize steel, just can't anodize all types of steel properly (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anodizing). How about some powder coating?  :cool:

Everything still (clearly) needs to be cleaned up, and there's still more that I need to grab (N64 + Games, rando accessories).

YEEEEEEE!!  :D

Pretty soon you'll need to post in the console gaming setup thread.  ;)  And wtf man, get with the N64 posting!  :cool:

Oh absolutely, still on the hunt for a decent CRT TV, and ideally I'll be grabbing the N64 + Games this weekend. Soon™

Dude... Retr0bright that SNES!

That's the plan! The NES and SNES both need a thorough cleaning for sure, as they were stuck in an attic for a while.
nom nom, OMG that SNES controller is a monster  :eek:

It's an arcade stick!

Haven't posted in a bit, but competed in the German Armed Forces Proficiency Badge this weekend.

Ended up missing Gold by 1 second on both the shuttle sprint & the 1000m sprint.  Hopefully I can get gold next year.

Award goes on dress uniform,but was pinned on our ACU during the award ceremony:

A fat stack of French homework, re-routed the power and USB cables in my desk and added a hub behind my keyboard, and started tinkering with my SPOS keyboard.

Did some machining today, alps clueboard case + some 60% plates.

More
so,

working out toolpaths.

(http://imgur.com/9U5t0zM.jpg)

cutting, you can see my previously cut out atreus pieces.

(http://imgur.com/D5Q8LZR.jpg)

and the cuts, not finished yet I am just going to brush them down with a few scotch brites to get rid of the burrs. stuff I made was a hhkb 60% plate, AEKII plate and the clueboard case, all out of ~1.2mm alu, all turned out pretty clean. note: the hhkb plate looks pretty bad because its the bottom and the waterjet cutter does these sorta sandblasted marks on the bottom of the pieces.

mockup of all the clueboard pieces before I machine the middle pieces out of wood.

I've just been cleaning and playing with my Model M all day. Absolutely love it. Buckling springs are my favorite clicky switch now, though I've only tried White SKCM ALPS and MX Blues.

I'm thinking of getting an SSK model for extra mouse room and buying an ergonomic gameboard like the Razer Tartarus.

Today was surprise gym day.  Surprise in that apparently I'll be nowhere near a gym Thu-Sat and need to squat on four separate days this week.  Right, Sunday-Wednesday squat sessions, it is!  Though I'm really supposed to be doing 5 per week but I'm going light for now to get used to it.

Pretty pleased, though.  Hit 370, 390, 405, and 415lb singles as planned.  Now to just repeat it tomorrow.... and Tuesday and Wednesday.

And I'm with you on Zeppelin.  ;)  Don't think that'll ever happen, but I've seen Plant a couple times so I can at least die happy.

I wouldn't get a 950 at this point

Because xpoint is coming out soonish..

Do you have an SSD you can just hold out on until xpoint ?


it's definitly good to see what's up with xpoint, before paying the premium for the 950


Because the 950 isn't actually faster than any of the newer ssds except in benchmarks.

Yesterday, but ordered a new PC for work.

Latest 27" iMac with most of the specs bumped up.

I was surprised it was approved so readily.

Actually mere surprise was not adequate, and I was forced to resort to astonishment.

I don't understand why people feel the need to even mention that it's overrated. Who cares? They're still damn tasty burgers, why does it matter if people think they're #1 vs #5 (or whatever)?  #5 burger is still ****ing delicious and no one in their right mind would complain about eating one.

So what gives?

But yeah, their fries are awesome no matter what.  :D

I'll actually agree with tp by saying that overhyping can ruin an experience that otherwise might have been good or detract from how good it is.  Case in point: I went to see 'Avatar' in theaters because everyone said it was literally,the best movie ever made OF ALL TIME, but when I watched it the overhyping of it kind of ruined the movie for me.  Was it good or even great?  Sure it was pretty cool, but what I was expecting vs. what I saw resulted in what would've been a great experience if I had went in not knowing anything about it turn into somewhat of a disappointment.

Generally, this is by no fault of the product itself that is being deemed overrated, but rather people who just won't shut the **** up about it.

Tp4 prefer Burger King..

Their burgers?  A tad overrated and overpriced but still good burgers.
Their fries?  Best fries IMO, especially with vinegar.

I totally agree with you there.

I'm going to be pedantic and separate hyping from rating, and in that case I think we're on the same page with overhyping and I still stand by my statement about something being overrated.  :)  If we both have evaluated something (which must be the case in this example) and I disagree with your rating, what is gained from pointing that out?

I love the word "pedantic". I once used it conversationally with my boss who was completely confused by it. I had to tell him what it meant.  :))

This afternoon I spent mostly listening to music. As a result I am happier then I have been in a long time. I would actually prefer to stay in my current location and continue to do so then go home. Tuesdays. Blah.

Because you're giving an unfair, emotional, and nonobjective rating..

That process is detrimental to society. It enervates the active motivation of the client party, shifting an unreasonable amount of resources.

You're creating a fad,  and all fads in retrospect are wasteful.

Yeah, I generally lump the two together because they often end up very similar, but I can certainly see the case for separating them.  The only reason I can think of is that if I rate something very highly and you rate it lower, maybe I am trying to "save" you in my eyes from your decision, which I might see as an error.  My friend did this with the movie 'Memento' because the first time I watched it I was kinda drunk and kinda high so I didn't follow it and thought it was pretty dumb and I guess overrated, but he had seen it many times before so he pushed me to watch it a couple more times and when I did, I agreed more with his rating than my initial one. 

That's all I've got!  :p

I totally thought that was a real tiger.

There was a shop near where I used to live sold fake cats.

Like they were all curled up in a basket, and had what looked like real cat fur.

First time I saw them I thought someone had taken a cat into the store and it got loose and went to sleep in a basket.

I touched it - hard as plastic underneath.

So funny :))

My neighbor had one of his cats stuffed after it passed and loves to show her off to everyone who comes over. He even brought her over to a party I was throwing and showed her off to my more curious guests whom were brave enough to peek the freak show.  :eek:
She feels really real unless petted hard enough to feel the hard stuffing inside.

I admire the fact that you are able to code, especially in C. I took an Adobe Flash course for my degree in which I had to code a simple game using Action Script. It was hell!

Not sure why ALL of my pics end up sideways. >:D
Sorry in advance. :-[

How did you hold your phone? Portrait?

Those pics were taken in portrait. A pic I took in landscape was attached completely upside-down. I copy my phone pics to my computer first so, I'm thinking that for whatever reason my pics are being rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise by my computer or something.

300 lines + text game but with C++ STL? You mad bro? ;-) You could probably bring it back to 100 lines in plain C given the boilerplate sometimes necessary for particular C++ specific concepts?

That's C++, not C. And it's much more of a nightmare than even ActionScript.

Today I had a lady cry hysterically over the phone to me because she is missing a form and thought tax deadline is today, had another client drop off information that showed $10,000 of income but $110,000 of expenses but got upset when I asked about it, another client cuss me and another person here out because their bill went up $30, and then had another client thank me profusely for helping them out and gave me a hug.  It's been a weird ass day.

On a more positive note, I'm heading to my wife's aunt and uncle's house where they have a stocked bar and craft beer on tap to have dinner and play Cards Against Humanity with them and the aunt's lesbian hairdresser and her wife.

Can't you just readjust the wheels relative to their axis? Do you really need new tires?

Post by: Darkshado on Fri, 15 April 2016, 18:07:53
Once the wheels are out of alignment the tread wears out unevenly, drive around in that state long enough and you'll have no choice but to replace the tires.

Oh yeah, switch soldering is super easy in comparison.

I mean once I got in a groove and had a rhythm it went decently quick but handing the tiny smd parts just takes longer.

Of course I had never done SMD work until this Leeku 3000 PCB before so it was all new to me.

Ah okay.  I've never done any soldering before (although I would like to start after I move) and wanted to gauge how hard it would be for me to solder some LEDs onto a board of mine but it sounds like I would be best served just having someone else do it.

why are you studying mandarin ?

I guess the short answer is "it's fun", as for the longer answer...

Rowdy's kind of right, we got a tonne of Mandarin speaking Chinese here in Melbourne, but for the most part I enjoy the language. Writing it is somewhat therapeutic for me as well  :thumb:

I like other languages, and I want to learn as much as I possibly can so I can maybe help bridge the gap between certain communities and whatnot.

Took my car to get its summer tires put back on. Drove by a thrift shop and decided to check if they had any keyboards.

Thought I had found an AT102W for a fraction of a second... Not really.

[attach=1]

Still an interesting board; one of the better rubber dome keyboards money can buy judging by posters here, the keys have a rather pleasant tactility.

Gave it a thorough cleanup; works, except for the Caps Lock LED. Update: It works fine on another computer for some reason...

Got around to making a few of those pixel art thingies for my signature.

Nice find, it looks great. Too bad about the LED though. I've been wondering about those pixel art things. Do you just make them yourself?

Pixel art: there's a whole thread (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=19113.0) about them.

OP has a fairly complete spreadsheet at the bottom.

I used some of those already there as a starting point:
WASD V2 TKL: modded to ISO and changed the colors of another to match my set.
Dell QuietKey: started off from eyesnine's AT101, modded to ISO, added the QuietKey text, tweaked the case a little.
ThinkPad Compact: began using sealcouch's M13, required the most work I'd say.
Microsoft Sculpt Ergo: found a render from MS, modded to ISO, made the background properly transparent, shrunk it.

Also had to get an eye exam and ordered another pair of Rx safety glasses, both pairs in transitions lenses.

mine have been broken for three months now, but it sorta forced to me use my contacts  :confused:
I can't wear contacts at work. To much of a safety hazard. Where mine broke was the frame around the lens right above the screw.

  • work was quiet, made a few campaign emails to get me off phone support
  • chick-fil-a for lunch! and I got a free 5-layer burrito from taco bell

  • got my first reaper 1 in the mail! :D
  • finally found a VESA mount for $7 so I can use one of my monitors portrait style
  • found some buffalo chicken flatbreads on sale for $1.99 at walmart so I stocked up  :cool:

Haven't tested it yet, honestly. Got the configuration all done. Need to redo a bit of my network setup to put it in place and such. I'll let you know (if I remember) once I have it actually set up and running.

I had it up and running for a few hours the other day with a couple of my machines pointed at it. Didn't notice any issues. Had to take it down because it's just not set up in an ideal place (kitchen table) and I have to reconfigure my router for it.

Either way, while it was up and running (for like 30 minutes) it gobbled up 8% of all my traffic as ads. Pretty shocking.

Well......... I move 40 terabytes a month.. so... ads are the least of my worries.

The problem with adblocking for me is that blocking them screw up some webpages..

Honestly, if your site is broken because of ads... well, I don't give a ****.

I use Focus on my phone and have noticed that some pages don't load right anymore. I would imagine it'll do the same basic thing on Pi-hole since it's redirecting ad-network content to a blank page stored on my Raspberry Pi. Did you read how it works?

Are you using a special aluminum blade ?.. or just a wood blade.. I had alot of trouble machining aluminum on the lathe using bits meant for steel, the breaker shape and relief angles were off.

I am using a blade from Diablo designed for laminates, melamine, and aluminum.  It has a triple chip grind.  Essentially, every other tooth has the outside corners taken off.

Cut some more aluminum.  Not much difference between cutting .062" vs .160" really.  Just more shavings from the thicker stuff.

New day but I paid my shop about a grand for work on my car, took 4 pieces of aluminum to the paint shop, put gas in both cars, struck out an an e-waste shop looking for keyboards unless you could a scissor switch compact layout, made in Czech Republic cherry that I didn't buy, and went to Pizza Ranch, they were doing a fund raiser for my kiddos day care

I spilled a soda near my camera, which splashed on the lens and surrounding components.  Originally thought I cleaned it up well enough, but when I went to check it today it was all gummed up and I had a hard time even getting the lens off.  So I did a little minor surgery and cleaned her up.  Only shot the tiny spring across the room once, and somehow defied the laws of life and found it within a few seconds of looking.  :eek:

Finally got my Widdlekitty Esc/Fn pack & Superlux HD562 headphones. I'm at work so will update this post later with some latvian potato photos.

if there is not one potato in your pictures, im going to be very disappointed.

My friend's parents are both from Latvia and he doesn't even like potatoes, worst Latvian ever.
He really is then. We have a shaming list for those kinds of people.

Torta has a lot of different variations amongst different ethnicities.  Some are sweet, some are flatter, some are just treated like bread, some are treated like open face sandwiches, etc.

From Wikipedia: Torta, a Spanish word with a huge array of regional culinary meanings, from its traditional meaning of flatbread to cake

I have already stopped trying to explain much of anything keyboard related to any co-workers.  I did receive an email on Tuesday though from a client who had remarked that he really liked my keyboard and was interested in where he could acquire one though!

Nothing special, just work and three hours of sleep and a lot of coffee brewing, but last Thursday I had the lenses in my glasses replaced. It was only 0.75 dioptre per eye on top of the –3.25/–3.5, but it feels like upgrading to full HD again, lol. Trees have leaves now, and I finally know which bus is coming or what beer's on the tap. Should've seen to it long ago. So don't keep putting it off once you need stronger glasses like I did, just go and get them.

Good luck, if the place was willing to do a tattoo on someone at 2AM that didn't look like they were going to remember it I doubt they are going to refund it.

Well, technically no. But at the same time I've worked overtime for the past two months so I decided why not for once? I'm underpayed for the stuff I do & for the time I'm working so I've been tired & really really wanted to stay in & work on stuff I would enjoy for a change.

I wouldn't wish that on anyone.  Not even my worst enemy.  After my time in the service, I can ride that fine line very well.  I can work in pretty extreme heat and only have to use the facilities twice in 12 hours while not getting to dehydrated that a couple glasses of water after work won't take care of.

It's just what came with the place. It's a rental appartment that is located in a 60's monastery that was recently renovated.
I've got some plans for the rest of the place but everything will come together once I get the carpet in and start moving in some other stuff. ;)

I fixed up my MA42 because some of the switches were a bit loose. I've must of not glued them enough so they started to pop out. Cleaned the case, did some little cable management and reprogrammed the layout back to my original layout because HHKB layout just wasn't working for me.

Another thing I did - found my old Yu-gi-oh card deck and will be getting into that now. Me & some friends figured that we could play some cool card games and so we're getting ready for some battles. Could be cool but I don't remember the rules & need to make a good decj with the cards I have. Maybe someone's playing and can show me the way to becoming a Master?

There is the same %percentage of  -trashy- gay people as there are -trashy- hetero people as there are -trashy- feminists..

Ah the Panavise GH edition GB. I remember that one. Almost bought the last one but... money.
You had Noko build you a leather base for it didn't you?

Yeah, I did the base plate, along with drilling and tapping the holes for the base.  But I did send it to Noko for the amazing leather work.

Helped to clean the house we were living in. We aren't even settled in the new place and have to basically see over two houses atm, it's got the wife kind of stressed. Me too.
Soon we'll be done with one of them though and hopefully after that there will be a period of peace and quiet. That's all I really want right now, just peace and quiet.

Huh, besides the usual? I went ziplining. Also tripled my artisan stash in less than 4 hours. Now I'm frantically trying to write mini-essays for my class tomorrow so I know what to do. I have one more thing I'm waiting on to happen, but today's been a good day.

Cleaned every HHKB keycap individually and the board itself too. Haven't done that since I got it so it was quite dirty underneath the keycaps. Besides that I slept for 12h because I was super tired yesterday and had to wake up at 3am & pick up my girlfriend from a work event.

Bought a stationbike for my girlfriend this weekend (Think cheap bike for city use) but it needed some work.
Today I replaced some cables and the handlebar tape and made it rideable again. Only thing I forgot is new brake pads...
Anyway, next weekend the old Batavus/Intercycle Champion can ride again. :)

They were for me when I rode around on a road bike. I avoided a few close calls with cars because of the narrow form factor. OE Schwinn World Sport, damn I miss that bike.

It's what she is used to right now and this one has those extra levers to brake on top. Besides, 90% of the time will be on separate cycling paths so it's unlikely that she will have a run-in with a car.

All right.

I converted my road bike to flat bar for commuting in Moscow. But then again, it was Moscow, so I was playing the Cycle To Work game on hard level.

Just as long as you quick-saved regularly.

Had to reroute our fridge and microwave because they blew a fuse in the wall plug. That was fun to diagnose with our old as **** wiring system. Every time we plugged something in the whole house blew it's fuse. It can't even take a shaver anymore.

I watched The Conjuring 2 without covering my eyes. That **** was scary.
i cant get scared by movies. although in a scary movie when things get intense i feel the goosebumps cause i like intense scenes

What?! I jumped a few times, and I screamed twice. It would've been out of control if I wasn't with the girl I liked, lol.

Conjuring II didn't have quite the creep-factor of the first one but I enjoyed it immensely. I love any story relating to the Warrens and their paranormal explorations. Also, James Wan  :thumb:
On a related note: I had the pleasure of "visiting" the real Amityville Horror house last week when I was on a Long Island business trip. I checked another box on the ol' bucket list!  :)

Jury duty (day 3).  Sat in jury pool, didn't get chosen.  Made sure my address was correct for that sweet $30 payday.

wait ur getting paid only $30 for 3 days ?

$15/day but they don't pay on the first day.  Thanks California.
They should at least pay minimum wage. :D

I agree, especially for the case I would have been assigned to (6 counts of sexual assault against a minor).  Bleh.

The jury parking lot for jurors is 1/4 mile from the courthouse, not a great walk when it's 90 degrees with 40 percent humidity.  They pay $15 dollars a day (but only day two and on), and 12oz sodas are $1.50.  And they wonder why nobody wants to be a juror.

100% dependent on the employer in the US.  I work for a University, and I get two weeks of paid juror leave, so that three days (and $30) is on top of my work pay and is going into my keyboard fund.

Please don't tell anybody.

Actually I have two at the moment.  A white frame / black blank HHKB Pro 2 will be going up on r/mechmarket tomorrow.

I'm saving up for a black 55g RF87U with widebasket keycaps (i've got major eye contrast issues and can't use the dark keyset).   And I don't like white framed keyboards as much.  Wife and family refuse to use 60% board, so we compromised on a TKL for home.

Thanks.  It felt really good when I went to go pick up the 2nd HHKB on Friday at elitekeyboards.  In fact, I spent a good 5 mins typing on the demo RF87 55g while waiting to pay.

At work, I caught up on three days of email, chatted a bit about the Got finale, and ****ed around with the Varmilo VA87M that arrived earlier in the week.  Then I listed my spare HHKB on r/mechmarket, and now I'm catching up here.  I suppose I should actually get some work done, but I need to eat lunch first.

American schools use Jolly Ranchers to entice the children into the life of capitalism. Well, that's what happened in the public schools that I attended..

Well then. Does it at least taste good?

They're okay. Depends on the flavor.

Yup. Cinnamon Fire is best

Soo what. Is it like chilli and cinnamon or does it just burn. For me, cinnamon already has a slight hotness.

Cinnamon isn't that popular here compared to the states. ;p

Reminds me of the time my sister made a cake and called it chilli chocolate, but it just tasted like cinnamon haha.

Also no tp4, you can't have a pic of my sister.

Same here, the weather really doesn't matter.  ****, two years ago we had to head to the UP for a funeral at the end of May and my son was playing in Lake Michigan when the water couldn't have been any warmer than 55 or 60F.

I've spent most of my lunch hour today being slightly depressed at everything I would need to do to get a Phantom-based TKL up and running.  Two areas are of specific concern where to find a case (other than having to buy a filco just for the case) and the Teensy programming.

Bought a car today.  Nothing special.  Picked up a 1999 Chrysler LHS with only 57,660 miles for $5,500.  Only issue is a couple of bad speakers.  Runs and shifts great.  This is my first car I have ever owned that was not a GM product.  But my current car is getting much worse and have a job next week that is 2 and a half hours from home.  It is getting so bad I don't think it would get me down there.  So I basically had today and tomorrow to get a car bought.

Went to Costco to return an extra can of nacho cheese from last night's party, drank some Anchor Steam, and am now pulling apart a rotisserie chicken.  I'm amazed that Costco can sell those for $5, it's tough to find the raw materials for that.

I think they may sell it at almost no profit to get u in the door..

So if you keep eating their chicken,  it makes you fat.. 

and When you get Fat..   You'll buy more of the other stuff..

It may well be a loss leader, and I won't go to Costco just for the chicken, but why not if I'm there?  I also split a piece of pizza and a soda, I got out of Costco for less than $10.  Free if the return is counted.  People in line were amazed that I was willing to wait 10 minutes in line for a single item.

I'm now looking for parts for a phantom TKL build.  If the KUL MX-clears don't come back in stock soon, I may go that route.

I gave it a go but didn't dig it, to me it felt more like a Pokédex VR simulator of some sort than of an actual game. It sucks though because my expectations for the release were so high! Perhaps it was because of the lack of Pokémons in my area, friends to play with or... I don't know, it felt like a rushed alpha release. For now I deleted the app and will wait until they develop it further. I'm hoping that soon they will somehow make it ressemble the GB experience, which I absolutely loved when I was a kid. It's very nice to see that so many people are having fun with it though, Pokémon is a global cultural hit and it has been for more than 20 years. This alone makes it great, and I definitely recommend everyone to at least give it a try.

Nononononono..

Zhu, means Vermillion

Que, is any bird in the crow-family.. but more specifically it's known for magpie.. or in this case, (peacock)

So,  Vermillion Magpie(Peacock) would be the literal translation..


Phoenix is loosly correct when you're extrapolating from western antiquity by color alone.. (but it is NOT the asian-phoenix), Zhuque in the chinese mythology is a separate mythical bird..

The asian phoenix is more towards Yellow/gold.. and not RED

Gateron Blues with 85g springs for the Caps and Scroll Locks, and then an MX Lock for the Fn layer. The rest of the board will have Zealios, so having that audible click for the Locks would be great feedback.

I'll be honest, I cant really tell the difference between the 67 and 78g springs. Maybe once they get used and worn in a little bit the weights will become more apparent.

it sometimes amazes me how some adults still cant cope with conflict and act like children... in the work place. Good for you for being level headed.

I'd like something more than 'good for you' for being level-headed with hostile people at work.

Most of my job involves dealing with over-educated asshats that act like spoiled children.  Normally, I have no problem dealing with that and the conflict that goes with it.

But I draw the line at boorish behavior in meetings directed at me.

so far the leg has healed up mostly, still have 2 graft sites that are healing super slow, but at least they're not getting worse and like dying or something but if the sites get infected there's a high chance of losing my leg, so were being super careful and im on constant antibiotics

Somehow, even though I eat a lot of sweets, I have only had one small cavity and that happened more than 15 years ago.  I think genetics has a lot of do with teeth along with things like proper care and diet, because with all the sugar I used to take in daily I shouldn't have a single tooth without a cavity.

you still need cleanings!  My dad cleans my teeth since he is a dentist ^_^


My grandfather was a smoker.. He had every single one of his teeth, all sparkling white till the day he past away @ 83..

Just brushing and flossing..

Tp4 will die at 65...  Tp4 knows this to be true..  Therefore..  It should be possible to cover this gap without dental assistance..

He probably had fake teeth and didn't tell anyone.

this was China, WAY back...  hahahaha...

I don't think they had the equipment back then..

And, this was also not long after the Cultural revolution, which means not too many higher level practicing dentists..

Someone I know has a YouTube channel called S.H.A.G. It's a really un-funny name so I have never watched any of his videos. Also I think he's a bit of an ******* so that's another reason why I haven't.

I read through the instructions on mine after I bought coffee for it and it did specifically say not to use fine grind.  Due to the filter mesh getting clogged and not letting the liquids through.

No guides, fences, or jigs.  Just a Sharpie line and freehand work.  Some of the outside cuts were with a table saw, but most were with a jigsaw.  All the outside corners were done with a handheld 4" angle grinder and a flap disc.

today i helped myself climb outta some very unpleasant migrainery, with: loads of water.  seasalt & lemon.  fresh ginger.  melatonin.  5-htp.  b12.  manuka honey.  vitamin c.  darkness.  omega oils.  massage.  vitamin E and other fat soluable vitamins.  chamomile.  grape.  grapefruit.  rest. alpha lipoic acid.  ginkgo biloba.  ahvagandha.  aloevera.  rosemary.  magnesium.  krill oil.  ...  and i asked in an unofficial offtopic chan what else can i try to aleviate this migraine?

iron.   of course.

so then i eated a big ol pile of iron fortified wheat cereal biscuit bar things... which (with the above) helped alleviate most of the symptoms of the migraine... tho, did set off my raynaud's syndrome.   ... ghadamnit.  life as a many-ailments feeble.  cant win.  XD

oh, i suppose going by the clock in strict terms, "today" i also installed and started playing pioneer space sim again.   which is nice.
(and started this thread (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=84352.msg2250032#msg2250032) just before coming here.)

i also helped a friend steer clear of SNRI pharma crap, n get on with finding less dangerous remedies to try before getting locked in to that horror.   ... with many searches n reassurances n a list or two much like that one above.  heh.

but i think dealing with migraine is accomplishment enough for one day.   ... i'm gonna go bask in pioneer space sim for the rest of the day.    ~ still in a dark room.

hopefully some day soon i'll come back to this thread with "finished sewing together reams of hemp fabric i bought, to make some hemp trousers, and some hemp dungarees."   but not today.  ;)

Have you tried lifestyle changes..   Getting some sunlight, exercise,  Mediterranean diet..

"lifestyle changes"
lots.  ... some of which may have been too much too soon (and/or too much of this, n not enough of that, type imbalances), contributing to the latest woes.    more on that to come.

been working my way through all kinds of lifestyle/diet changes over the years.   currently on something resembling ayurvedic gerson pescatarian... would like to go more pegan than pescatarian, ~~~ or even fruitarian (no that doesnt mean just eating fruit) or breatharian/photarian(!) (lol).   :confused: 
        or just go back to being mainly hemparian.  **** didnt go wrong nearly as much then when i was mainly eating hemp [edit because we evolved in a symbiotic relationship with the hemp plant!  [edit ~ or maybe just more as a result of it being the first / oldest / longest cultivated crop]].   excessive almond [edit - soaked almonds of course] quantities in my vitamix'd nut milk mighta been a culprit sparking off the migraine too.   they can be tricky things to determine the causes.

"Mediterranean diet" doesnt do too well for me.  too much nightshades, grains and aliums, not to mention olive oil isnt the best, nor the butter that hasnt been turned into ghee.  ... i'm deep long past that pop nudge past the s.a.d.    ;)   maybe if i lived in the mediterranean climate, that diet would be better suited.  but i doubt it.  ^_^

"sunlight" ha!  i think that's partly what landed me in this trouble.  really dont see much of that here.  sunny hours a year on average, <1200.   weather changes (couple days of suuuuuun!!!) n high pressure likely part of what brought out the migraine.   hopefully i got a bit of a tan outta it tho.  lol  :rolleyes:

"exersize" yep.   that one i intend to be building up.  various ailments been making it difficult.  got other mountains to climb, before i can climb literal actual mountains. ^_^
n mighta been trying too hard on that front.   spine problems see...  maybe been pushing too hard on some of the physio, n need to take more heed of the alexander technique gentleness, rather than constantly trying to brute force that kink in my neck away with the physiotherapy exercises, ~ even as patient n diligent as they need be.  alexander technique stuff's more wholistic savvy too.  so it's not just the kink in my neck, but the twisted spine, weak pelvis, posture, skeletal spacing, muscle tensions, habituations, etc etc.
but yeah... more cycling methinks.  more trampoline (and less trampoline (more gentle n longer n more often)).  more brisk walking, but not so brisk... i tend to try to go max speed (which varies from 0.1 mph to 4.2mph, thnx to ailments).   ... n i should blow the dust off the wii n do some wiifit n wiisports again.  :3   i think i ran outta excuses there.  ;D  also i likely dont do even a tenth as much yoga as i think i do... n not even 100th as much as i should ~ tho a portion of that can be attributed to me exhausting myself to fatigue with all the physiotherapy exercises.

thnx for playing.   ;D


but seriously...  pioneer... ;D  ... wheeeeeee.  i'm flying through spaaaaaace!     ... ^_^ ace feeling for one so often limited to <1mph walking speed.   ... probably why i like teeworlds too (wheeee, the speeeeed).  sure might be "toxic mimics" for my body, but for my psyche, it's a big boon.

Are you sure you've got migraines and not just having imagined them from doing --Drugs--.. hahaha



Well, ok in China,  we got this  general cureall,  Reduce your lifestyle to the basics, and simplify as much as possible, to create a baseline for balanced complexity.


So, right now, because you've tried so many things, so fast.. All of these things have unknown time-frames for effectiveness, so maybe something would've worked had you done it for shorter or longer, but because you're so actively moving towards multiple solutions, the problem is never solved to completion..


In the Chinese technique,  you retract into a monk like diet,  White Rice, Cabbage Stir-fry, 2 apples, NO animal protein.    Eat only those things for a few MONTHS , be CERTAIN of the effects,  THEN move onto adding things ..

Add regularity to your life, Wake at the same time everyday , sleep at the same time each evening..    Don't indulge in modern hedonistic amenities,   (games, sex, alcohol, drugs)..

 
This gives you a clear starting point, from which to build. The main benefit is to remove the complications in your life which May not be working.

Finally had a day to tinker with some boards.  Completely desoldered my Chinese Custom to use the switches in my b.87 and swapped the springs to stock mx blacks (now lubed and stickered clears with black springs - panda clears?).  Also lubed and resprung 90 mx browns to 60g gold springs to go back in the Chinese board.  Was planning on using an aluminum universal playe that I snagged from cptbadass but found that the spacing between the function row and number row was different from the stock setup.  Oh well.

Spent 2 days at Dragoncon with the kids.

It is OK early in the day but the crowds get ridiculous after noon.

The "big" panels in the ballrooms are so out of control that it is hardly worth it, but many of the smaller events are very enjoyable and inspiring.

Well, kinda. It's about 2cm above the ground but the mudguard touches it. I wanted it to touch but mudguard is a tad too long. I know it's best to not let it hover above ground but my friend has a vertical rack too for about two years & there's no issues with his bike whatsoever.

Took the metro to the end of the line and cycled to the southernmost island of the province I live in. Took two ferries to get there and cycled some more before taking the same way back. A good 40 km or so in a few hours.

Makes me want to buy a good new bike to do trips like these more often.

Well, I wish you a speedy recovery buddy! :thumb:

Bought tickets for me and a buddy to go to a food truck and craft beer festival tomorrow, and the tickets included three beer vouchers per person, so I'm looking forward to sampling the brews.

Other than that, just at work right now, counting down till I can get out of here and go into the city for ramen tonight.

Baked a small batch of melonpan (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melonpan) which is a Japanese bun.
Never tried it before, so I don't know if I made them the correct way ...
I have never been to Japan and I have not found any Asian bakery in Sweden.

I got a dog, dog likes to leave its hair lying around and computer likes to eat dog hair. Computer room is a bit of a black spot when it comes to cleaning, for example most of the house is pretty clean and this happens regularly but the computer room is pretty much a dungeon.

well, you can, but you don't have any employees of any kind, it's more like renting out rooms and the workers are self-employed renting out rooms for their use... of course I guess some will have kind of contracts for advertising/promotional purposes which will guarantee steady customer-ship, but I don't know the nitty gritty of that all (not being in the business ofc)...
bottom line, they're all self-employed to keep it legal... well, that's as much as I know, don't quote me on any of it though, haven't read into this subject at all, just hear-sake ;)

Leeku PCB, Plateless, No LEDS, 62g Ergo Clears on Alphas/Mods/F Keys, MX Blacks on the rest (ran out of ergos :3), EnjoyPBT Cyrillic.

Ended up soldering the diodes late last night, and finished up this morning. There's a few crooked switches which I'm gonna straighten out tonight :D

Woke up at 6:50 Am on a goddamn Saturday to grab some Jordan 1 Black Toes and couldn't even get a single pair into one shopping cart on 11 different websites. For months I was planning and researching to get this shoe, and I never even had a remote chance. It was like a 4Grabs, but on every ****ing website. I'm super salty.

last time the Black Toe colorway was released was 2012 I believe the best looking retro 1 colorway IMO. The aftermarket isn't insane, they are going for around a $100 markup, but they don't even have Boost so there is no way I am paying over retail for just a good looking shoe. Ehh, perhaps they will release them again in 2020.

Didn't take any afters buy I think this might at least get me by for a little while.

Fan still wants to run more than I think it should but crossing my fingers it'll at least be usable.

Temps hovered around 60C just idling and up to 75-80C with light usage.

Seem to stay around 60C now.

Yeah I know that's why I want to get a new puter so I can use it instead of typing then waiting to see if my input goes through.

I thought doing a repaste would help, still not sure.

did you disassemble the fan chamber assembly.. and dedust that.. you see how the vent is blocked..   even if it looks clean from the outside..

The compressed air CAN NOT fix this situation.. you have to open the chamber

Been feeling really pent up lately, so I went into the office today and shot a bunch of people. Felt so good to finally unload my frustrations on my workmates with a gun and just lay into them over and over. I hit a few innocent bystanders, but I feel no remorse, I would have shot everyone in the office if I had enough ammo.

I am not understanding how porkrinds work.


I thought porkrinds had to be fried in really hot oil to get the puffy texture....

Ran a virus scan from the terminal today. I felt like a superhero as I watched the file names cascade down my monitor--then I felt like a ninny when I realized that I could have commented out basically everything from the log file. I ran the scan again omitting everything but found infections. I really didn't feel like sifting through a 43mb log file. Turns out I had a Trojan in a DOS game. Lots of false positives but I love knowing what they are and why they register as a false positive. I'm still practicing but I think my Linux-ing is improving a bit

Actually, some of the false positives were because of my ad blocker's 3rd party malware website list. My email spam filter also caused a few false positives because of a 3rd party phishing list. But the real deal was from X-COM: UFO Defense (1994). It contained Win.Trojan.Agent-187981.

Besides, how many Malware developers write Malware for Linux? tp probably knows a few Linux Malware developers--so he says don't do it because most people don't like it when other people tell them what to do. :cool:

Me and Pexon are going to make it work. I'm using a laptop screen with a converter that I'm going to buy off a seller in China on eBay. Going for mATX form factor, fanless PSU, but I think there is going to be quite a lot of cutting and drilling. There's only one 80mm case fan slot from what I can remember, so I'm just going to go with that. Might then try to dremel through the ridges that there are that run around the case. Just cut in the trench bits to make a barely visible second fan for an exhaust fan.

None of the ports will be visible from the outside of the case, I don't know how I'm going to block off the bits left by the previous display cards, but I will figure something out. I might mount a USB hub to the outside to add extra peripherals like microphones/mice. The one I have that's a bit worse for wear will have the back cut out so I can put some Perspex in there, get the inside lit up with cathode tubes for a less harsh look than LEDs.

The execution is still a lot up in the air right now but we will get  there eventually. The parts are the most important I think, it's just getting together with Pexon and discussing what we can do and bounce ideas off each other.

We haven't yet, I've not bought any parts for it as of yet so I've not documented much, but we will definitely get something going when I start sourcing bits and pieces.

Anyway on topic, I finally launched the Custom Polygons (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=65189.msg2329644#msg2329644) feature on builder.swillkb.com (http://builder.swillkb.com/) today.  It has been in dev for like 4 months in what little spare time I have had.  My wife has been kind enough let me work on it for a few days this holiday to finally get everything wrapped up and pretty much polished.

Happy Holidays everyone.  I hope these holidays find you well.  I will probably be around a bit more over the next few weeks, so hopefully I can catch up with a few people.  :)

Here is a little builder porn for you guys...

smoked hearts are amazing as well, almost like smoked bubble gum.  Can't stand the liver though, I give that stuff to friends.  Not a fan of the neck either.  Good meat, but more of a PITA to get to than crab.

So far the best fish I have had was swordfish for a white meat, and nothing can beat home smoked salmon for a pink meat fish.

Swordfish is a very flaky, and firm meat, think blue gill steak.

Look up recipes for prosciutto, that is a room temp dry cured ham.  The prosciutto that is made in Italy and sold in the USA has to hang for 100 days longer than the stuff sold in Italy due to USDA requirements.  So the prosciutto that is sold here generally has a stronger salt/garlic flavor than theirs. Prosciutto is cured at room temp with nothing but salt and garlic, pressed somewhere during the process, scrapped off, mold cleaned, salt/garlic reapplied, etc.  Thats about all I know, but I am a ways off before I get to that point.  My next endeavor for smoking meats is smoking my own slab of bacon.

Got to move to Italy.  USDA my ass.

Not saying that either one is better or worse, just a different flavor profile due to having to hang longer.  The reasoning behind the USDA requirements is because the meat is never cooked, the salt pulls enough moisture out of the meat to keep it from rotting.   The USDA is paranoid about that, so they require the meat to hang longer to pull more moisture out of the meat.

I'm down 8 lbs (all water weight) from the first.  Steamed Cabbage SUCKS.   Steamed Broccoli is ok.

I think I want to experiment with using Kim Chi as a primary vegetable/greens at least every other day.

Problem with Kim Chi is if you get the healthy kind (sans MSG) it's pretty expensive at $4.99 a jar.  What's 7-8 servings is only 2 for me.

I can go to the H-Mart and get a big ass pail of it for a better discount but if I recall all of them had MSG...

My mom wrote my dead grandma's car on my name so I got my first car (rode it for year but just recently remembered that car documents are no longer valid).
Paid a huge wad of cash for the insurance (no sales for me :( ) because it's my first car and I only have driver licence for 3 years.
Had to get my car checked for safe usage and aced the test.

On keyboard related events - gave my colleague a Cherry G80-1800 to try out.

I did get some rest plates with the C series, which is the high temp air cure. I had 3 done, one in a basic black, one in micro slick (designed specifically for reduced friction for engine parts) and one as a 50/50 mix.results were not good enough for me to market.

The last H series one I did has been in circulation for 6 to 7 months now, on a mouse with ceramic skates.  He told me the other day that there is no signs of wear.

Though I do still need to get a piece of UHMW officially tested.  This material has 90% of the same properties as Teflon™, but at a third the price.  I do have one piece that is 11.5"x12.5", but not cut square, very rough cut with a Skil saw.  The top is also scratched to hell and there is virtually no was to polish it.  This stuff has 15 times the abrasion resistance of carbon steel.

I would be willing to send it to you for testing for the cost of shipping,  though Monday will be my last chance to get it shipped until the 17th due to work.

It was 10F outside so I thought I'd try and warm things up.

Sometimes I wish i had one of those wood burning furnaces outside... like where its heating water to pump through subfloor heating or radiators or something. It would make great use of some junk wood you should burn in the house. Tons of junk pine around this area too.

Oh I'll tell you exactly what happened.

I bought a new memory foam mattress and decided to stop hoarding boxes so a huge pile of boxes (and a few odds and ends) along with the old mattress went up in flames and in the process some old tree limbs and part of a tree trunk in the pile from a couple years ago decided to finally start burning as well.

The pile is still smoking from last night, going on ~20 hours at this point.

Hrrrmmm...  so the mattress burning is just the red herring..

TOMORROW BEGINS CHICKEN/TILAPIA AND BROCCOLI/CABBAGE DIET.

I'm down 8 lbs (all water weight) from the first.  Steamed Cabbage SUCKS.   Steamed Broccoli is ok.

I think I want to experiment with using Kim Chi as a primary vegetable/greens at least every other day.

Problem with Kim Chi is if you get the healthy kind (sans MSG) it's pretty expensive at $4.99 a jar.  What's 7-8 servings is only 2 for me.

I can go to the H-Mart and get a big ass pail of it for a better discount but if I recall all of them had MSG...

-dante-.. you can not sub Kchee as a vegi source..   it's like +40 Kidney Stones

Sifos eat it as a condiment to --rice--

I think you're right.  My insides are being torn up pretty bad right now ... I'm taking a few days off and will cut down consumption.

Have you looked into green smoothies? You need a fairly strong blender (I got a Vitamix used off craigslist) but they are so amazing if you don't like eating veggies. I toss in several handfuls of kale, a little water, avocado, juice from half a lemon (this is key if you like it tart!), and a bunch of different fruits. It's basically tastes like a regular fruit smoothie, and it's way easier than eating all that kale on its own.

can't really cover the kale unless it's in very small quantity relative to the rest of the material.

Seriously? Well, the one I make isn't too crazy. If you can eat fruits like strawberries, kiwis, banana, grapes, and pineapple... and if you can eat kale... then you should be ok to combine them all together into a delicious, fruity slurry!  ;D

The one I did, I did with frozen fruits..

I think I should've left the kale unfrozen.. that way it'd blend smoother..

The abomination I made was a bit gritty..

And idk, if there's a difference between Young kale and OLD kale like in other leaf vegetables,  but i definitely got the OLD kale that time which was way too stiff..

I love to use kale as a bed for my eggs. Nothing like buttered and salted kale in the morning imo. Then again, I love vegetables and hell, when I eat fruits I eat the rinds too but I can understand why people make smoothies. Smoothies are delicious

Not exactly.  Mostly I was trying to avoid driving into cellphone zombies in the parking lot.

If you want a front row seat to the Walking Dead, come to a Costco on a Sunday afternoon and watch a bunch of zombies as they slowly lumber in and out of the place turning a bitter eye towards anyone keeping them from swiping.

plan didn't go entirely smoothly as the 3.5mm jack wasn't long enough to use the included nut to secure the jack in the ear cup...so it is epoxied in there.. should be fine.

should make the V6's a lot more portable..  even wired L/R correctly  :D

Also I had an interview at work for a new job within my own company. It's only a 6 month operational transfer (so I will be coming back) but it's what I want to do as a career, so i really really hope I get it.

I actually did dress up nice. Which my current boss (who was also doing the interview) was quite surprised at. The guy who will potentially be my supervisor in this new job has a ponytail, wears timberlands and heavy metal t shirts to work. I might have over done it, but oh well.

Better to over do it than show up for an interview with a ponytail, timberland and tshirt when they are expecting presentable.

I'm job hunting from home, my daily routine involves scouring glassdoor, linkedin, beyond, ziprecruiter, and higheredjobs and getting resumes out.

Good times.

So i made some Zealios yesterday. The Aristotle cases are such bad quality, I think I broke at least half of them tearing the housing apart. Also kinda broke a few Zealio housings by trying to force the Aristotle sliders int and bending the contact in the bottom part too far and pretty much ruining most of the bump.

My fingers are also cramped up to **** and still hurting.

Haha nah, I went from city to semi-city and now outback Australia. Problem is outback Australia does not really have a million peasants on payroll to do single task jobs all day so I pretty much inherited a portfolio of general ****tery that is usually taken care of by other people. Kinda like instead of belt feeding similar **** all day every day I am belt feeding a little bit of all this random ****, if that makes sense (it may not translate well outside of straya).

Why did you move to the outback? It's basically as boring as any countryside anywhere, with an added bonus of being killed by anything natural.

For more money, I want to do something completely different for work soonish (like next two years) so I need to get as much cash as I can before I lose like over half my pay and become either some tradesman's ***** for four years or some skipper's ***** for four years or some government department heads ***** or some other ****s ***** for some period of time as I learn some form of new skill.

Its even worse where I am, town is built over an underground mine. Apparently there is an exemption to allow it to processes its mined **** right next to the town so there are air quality issues and the water may or may not be safe. I mean would not be worse than a lot of industrial setups in any non-western country with enforced standards but still ma lungs. So not only will the wildlife try to kill me, but the air will too.

They're never in any direct sunlight and I won't have the same records up all the time, so it should be fine.

edit: Also, I believe the windows in my room block some of the UV light since they're slightly tinted.

Thought about going in my swimming pool..... but then I didn't. I did turn on the filter though and watched the creepy crawly putter around on the bottom for a bit.

Tp4 , mastery of doggy paddle ++..

....... doggy style.....

Tp4 = p00r

never could fords swimming lessons.. doggy paddle 's best i got.

****ing hell, they made us do lessons at school (free) and I went to peasant school.

Wow... Tp4 went to peasant skool too.. 

They only taught tp4 how to make soup,  and cut pieces of wood.   THEN one day tp4 got in trouble for eating too much of the soup, because apparently it was for the whole class, but tp4 were hungry so tp4 ate more than half of it..

It would seem Australia has much better basic social services..

Finished up a custom mouse pad, complete with a laser etched logo.  The makerspace I have a membership at has a laser cutter.  I got some time on it today and I think it turned out great.  It is subtle but not so much that it gets lost.  The design is an ambigram set at a 45° angle in the corner so it works with the pad in any orientation.

[attach=1]

The initials, MDC, are for Melvang's Desktop Customs.  I do plan on designing other products, including a custom headphone stand with passthrough connections for headphone, mic, and USB.

Good **** dude, will buy a custom mousepad from you in the future. also about that offer on testing a less polished mousepad for you, I think I'm gonna have to turn down the offer now since I don't think I'll finish my cancer treatment in enough time to really warrant bothering you later on for testing it because I figure you'll probably have your system of making them down by then.

Alright, time to bust out the measuring tape and the drill.  :cool:

I'm not big on india.. also not big on thailand..  neither places are good vacation spots imho.. 

 jpn is nice, but only if you're there to buy ricecookers, otherwise, it's like usa, just very dense..

mongolia is quite interesting for its culture and people..

china.. the south is too hot and humid, kinnnd of like india..  the northern weather is better, but major cities has the poison smog thing.. hahahhaa


Europe... non metro, it's more hilly than the american rural,  not especially interesting... tiny portions of food.. this is at odds with the american way, more than anything else..



Africa..  this is the next place to go...   though I am held back by the fact that lions might eat me.

Sounds like you've been everywhere or you just have strong opinions about almost every continent. Don't judge Europe on having tiny portions on food, it's probably more in the south. We in Latvia usually have large and nice portions if it's not a slow food Michelin kind of joint.

It's like the worst theme park ride,  with the longest lines EVER.. especially international..



Korean Air is the best airline though...  All the stewardesses are super pretty..   they only hire the pretty ones on Korean Air..

The joke's on fanpeople he milked himself for nothing, I stopped drinking coffee for five months now  8) .

It's just cold water from the fountain the same as anyone else who drinks from it.  Besides there are CCTV cameras installed everywhere throughout the facility, workshops, kitchens, managerial offices and rest rooms.  The company did that to reduce theft and other illegal activities.  That is why you got spotted by them and provided an easy way to remove you off the premises immediately  ;) .

Also all company funds can only be accessed by the CEO back in Sydney and even he needs approval from the head CPA and Co Director  (under current legal implications).

Trust me sunshine, you've got no way of ever hurting anyone within this company, without first being recorded and charged at a later date.

Certainly the penitentiary are death houses back in the day,   but the photos/paints are quite scenic..   people pay millions for a water front view these days.

Not all females are skinny.  I probably see at least as many fat ones as skinny ones.  And everything between.  Not many tall ones though.

But then I google fotos,  and everyone looks skinny,  so maybe the fotos are older..

There's a lot more Asians around here now, and they are nearly all skinny bastards that probably brings the average down a bit.

Very nice.  The last car I did that with was my 99 Le Saber.  Drove that to 225k and gave it to my mother in law.  She drove it for another year and half.  The engine still ran like a top but front end needed more work than she could afford.

My last buick only went to 186k before the trans and torque converter started going out.  Transmission wasn't shifting right, hadn't been in overdrive for close to a year, and then the torque converter would stay locked up for shifting.  Had 2 days to find a buy a car. 

Found a 99 Chrysler LHS with less than 60k miles on it.

Well, if you're not in a hurry, I could try. If you give me couple of weeks and let me know the hole sizes and such. Firstly I should get the right acrylic plate, then make a file for the laser cutter. These were made just by using keyboard layout editor and Swill case&plate builder.

P.S. I'm from EU so would need to figure shipping expenses. Probably best if the station would be modular just so it's easier to package.

One plate is 7×8 and other is 8×8. Made them at my friends workplace. Nothing special.

Don't know, don't care. It does the job. P.S. If not burned, the burn marks are vapors on a plastic protective sheet. tp4, you worried I burned that plate?

usually I would leave the sticker on the acrylic if I am not sure how this acrylic will behave too hahaha.. or at least turn the air all the way up..

But I have heard they have a special sticker paper which comes with cast acrylic made specifically for certain laser speed/powerlevels..

I haven't see this stuff sold anywhere,  I just heard it exists.

Yeah, the burned parts are just  a sticker. It starts to flame a little when it there's little material around the laser, the acrylic get too hot and stuff like that.

By 'flushing' I mean just opening them up like the FD would do and let 600 gal/min flow out to make sure the hydrant operates correctly and that the water isn't too muddy/dirty. If it is a little dirty you just let it run until it's clear.

The pipes that go to hydrants are not only for hydrants, they go to houses as well.

If there were buildup enough to cause blockage, it would have cause a major issue like pipeline breakage.

How long is the run from the main pipe Up to the fire hydrant usually..


Is there 600 gallons just sitting in that run ?

I'm not really sure actually. 10ft, maybe 20ft, I don't actually know. The 600 gal/min is how much you'd get out of any hydrant in the city (give or take a little). They're all connected on one system with like 19 wells.

Well partly because it will be easier for me in terms of Visas, bank accounts, and logistics to get a job in the EU as opposed to America, but also because there aren't really any entry level/level 1 data centre jobs going in America at the moment. It would be nice to get there eventually but i'm going to try and use this as a stepping stone.

The one in the picture was about 3 1/2ft long, and there was another one close by that had to be another 1ft long.
I usually spot them walking along the sidewalks.
One of my favorite animals down here (That don't live in the ocean) is those bigass Sandhill Crane birds.

Don't you live near Orlando? Do you guys have iguanas running wild in the streets up there?
I grew up in Jacksonville, and we never saw these animals up there.

Sigh..  Tp4 has a naturally high waist to shoulder ratio.  1x waist 1.7x shoulder..

So all the form fitting, Branded , xpensive shirts ,are out of budget.. $$$



I absolutely realize that xpress clothing is , super trashy, but,  what can I do, 

--  Not wear cloths until I can afford good brands ? --

That's the worst when you've finished building the whole board, and everything seems perfect, but a little while later you notice
one or two switches that have spring ping or something.
Then it's like ****! Now I have to take it apart, and manhandle switches out of the plate without scratching it.

Hate when that happens.

Now i have the possibility to simply say "Echo, cinema on" and then my ceiling lights dim off, my ambient light goes slowly on and my logitech harmony hub turns on my tv & av-r & xbox one s in the correct settings, all with one voice command. It's awesome :D

Understanding the horror that is diabetus,    gotta be careful ^^^^, as we now know the primary contributor to TYPE TWO, is consumption of animal products, due to the high fat content.

But there's no real substitution because low fat meat still has ALOT of fat.. well above the 10% threshold , which is the only current limiter which guarantees no heartdisease/diabetes. hahahahahaha...

This is not correct. Type 2 diabetes is most commonly caused by obesity which is almost entirely attributable to high carbohydrate consumption. If you want to be upset with a particular food, be angry at corn and the high fructose corn syrup that is made from it.

Incorrect.


We now have indisputable evidence that diabetes type 2 is caused by high fat intake.. in the American case, predominantly from Meat consumption.

Linear.  Pressure is equal and even throughout.  Based on pump capacity, surface area of the piston and load on the boom.  All cranes are hydraulic, not pneumatic.

We once had a crane so big it came in on rail cars in pieces then they had to bring in another big crane just to put the bigger one together. It was like only one of a few in the country of its size. It also had a special pad poured for it to sit on.

Those cranes aren't rented.  They are hired.  Renting knows that you will have your own operator among other things.  When they get hired, you just have to point them to what-have-you want to pick up and where to set it down, then write a check. 

Depending on the crane and how far it came, it n but have been delivered by rail due to cost of transport due to permitting.  If there is rail service close enough to offset the extra handling.   Rail is many times more fuel efficient per ton transported.  I thing the last number I saw was 436 tons of freight a mile per gallon of diesel.

Either way, making some progress today

With a really sloppy veggie burger, yes. :D
Soy patty, cheese, fried mushrooms and bok choi stems, lettuce, tomato. I did not marinate or fry the mushrooms for very long so it wasn't as good as it could have been, but it was OK.

I think it died instantly, it was probably only 15 seconds from me getting out and walking back to drag it off the road and was no movement whatsoever.

Interestingly enough about 5 kms on there were a bunch of cows on the road and because I didn't want to hit another kangaroo, I was only going about 80km/h. So I had plenty of time to stop as opposed to 110 around a corner. So in a way that kangaroo may have saved my life (though I doubt I would have died in a jacked up 200 series with ARB bull bar).

Fixed my Plasma TV for about $20. Ended up being a few SMT transistors and diodes that needed to be replaced. It went much smoother than I expected and SMT soldering without a heat gun wasn't terrible, but I can absolutely see the reason to buy one.

It's a tough situation.


In advocating womens rights,  the movement inadvertently became a cover for all women,  INCLUDING many violent and belligerent ones.


So much so,  that people forget that women are just as capable as men at being the (bad guys)..  and that men, are just as capable of being abused  -by women-  ..  hahahahhahaha


This newest mens movement is the counter swing against aspects of feminism which went too far..

I didn't actually sweat too bad (the weather and wind were nice today - and the relative lack of hills around here doesn't hurt ;) ), but I did still shower once I got to work. If you don't have showers at work, it could get uncomfortable for sure. I just threw my nice clothes in the pannier bags and went; it was surprisingly easy considering how far I am from work (and having to go pretty much all the way across town).

I'd definitely look into it if you're interested. It might also help to find someone else to bike a portion of the trip with, to help keep you committed (something I struggle with). :)

We have showers at work; I guess the only issue would be getting to work early enough to shower and still be on time. I'm not a morning person at all so I rely on sleeping on the train!
Still, I should try it once. I think once I get close to the lake by Chicago it's a straight shot down the coast, which I imagine would be a lovely ride.

I split a load of interlaced archive footage into different resolutions and exported them to run through an alchemist to be deinterlaced and sent back to the cutting room. Then I went and got pizza and ice cream with a buddy, checked out the new Fiorucci shop that's just opened, went back to work and sat on my arse all afternoon.

Babies wear diapers.  Wife was out to dinner with other wives.

The drawer where wife keeps diapers was out. The secondary place where she keeps the big box was out.

Baby screaming with poopy butt, other kids running around trying to find a diaper anywhere. None to be found. Not in any bag, purse, or even the trunk of the car.

Finally I remembered where we put the old cloth diapers since we stopped using them (baby's poops are too nasty these days). Put one of those in the baby.

Later I found out wife had stuffed the bag of diapers under the dresser.


I think wives do this kind of thing on purpose and then don't answer their phones or texts and have a good laugh about it. :mad:

Last Saturday Today I participated in my first ever Friday Night Magic prerelease event. I won 4 out of 7 matches(!) and won 9 booster packs from the soon-to-be-released Ixalan set.  :thumb: It was the first time I had ever played against people outside of my friends circle and I also learned quite a bit.

I looooooooooooooove merfolk.

Been fending off a cold while at work but can't wait to get home to the Dream Tongue waiting in my mailbox  :p I really hate getting sick because if I don't work out for a few consecutive days, I feel like I'm starting over energy wise when I get back on it.

1. Logged on to GH to check out latest postings of ultra-cool dudes.

2. Checked eBay for buckling-spring bargains.

3. Talked, texted 'n' emailed with various friends / family members (including cousin who owns $1M rare car, yeesh).

4. Visualized peace and love around the world.

5. Took a peek at the NIB MK I'm giving some friends as a present.

6. Chatted with wife at our other house.

7. Arranged an old Sephardic lullaby for two accordions (somebody had to do it).

8. Had 2nd cup of coffee.

9. Walked to pizzeria for massive veggie slice + caesar salad.

10. Picked up a couple of dark German beers I'd never tried.

11. Did pop-song leadsheet for musician friend who requested it.

12. Checked GH again. Basked in knowledge 'n' brilliance of KB peeps I almost actually know.

13. Watched first couple of "The Orville" episodes. Clever, but what is Seth McFarlane, anyway? White? Asian? Both? Can't help wondering.

14. Practiced banjo, accordion (no piano at condo).

15. Reminisced about playing music at Disney parks; wished Minnie Mouse was still my girlfriend.

After about a week of intense and ceaseless back pain I broke down and saw a doc for the first time in nearly a decade. After spending literally 40 minutes trying to get of of bed to piss, I thought enough was enough. He told me it could be up to 3-6 WEEKS of these levels of pain, which is seriously wtf-worthy. Gave me a shot of dilaudid in my spine which helped, but only about a 30% pain reduction. Substantial overall though.

Everyone made fun of my ingenious improvised support system consisting of a back brace, a vise-grip, and a Swiffer quick mop that has a 360° rotating head for optimal support while rotating your body.

Anyway, I want to die... I'm curious how much that little visit will wind up costing  :)

jesus christ......


Dilaudid is Hydromorphone..


Do you guys remember those opioid pain killer ads with the fat grandmas and -normal- looking people playing with their kids.

The ads emphasized how it's NOT habit forming or addicting.


But several of the people IN THE AD became full blown heroin addicts..



So..   Not trying to rain on your back pain,    but MAXIMUM caution needs to be exerted when confronting any Opioid pain killers.


Last time I was prescribed 30mg hydrocodone.  I threw the prescription out the moment I left the dentist office, bought a bottle of Ibuprofen and rode it out..


Noisy turtle..  having some idea of your personality from our forum exchanges..   I would consider you a highly risky personality to be around this stuff..




Very generally,  the effect of such substances is an Indirect Programming of the brain that the Concurrent Behavior is Correct and Desirable..

It doesn't matter what is happening.. You put that stuff in you.. The brain goes,  YES, I've learned that this is the thing to do to be happy, AND, this is what I should be doing tomorrow.


Tomorrow comes,  and you ask your brain,  what should I do,  Do i want to play video games ?, 

The brain's background processing will output, Videogames are fun,  But DRUGS are funner.. Go get drugs..


This internal dialogue will be there forever, ever since inception of the drug..


It doesn't take very long,  if the behavior is continuously reinforced for mere weeks,  YOU ARE a drug addict..



Life spinning out of control is a mere symptom of drug addiction,  but Everything about becoming one Occurs BEFORE that ever happens..

I don't even take OTC stuff like naproxen or IB, you are forming and basing your advice 100% on the stereotype that people who smoke weed also do other things. Other than pot and booze, literally the only medication I've taken in probably a decade has been Tums.

You are young , and so the sense of invincibility still permeates in all that you think and do.

But the opioid pathway is a direct hijacking of our core motivational system.


The weed and alcohol also work in a similar fashion, but they do not raise the concentration of dopa as high.


THat is to say,  in every way,  noisyturtle is already  Drug-addict Lite..


Whether or not you Unlock the Full-Game w/ all the DLCs,  very much depends on whether or not you respond to caution.




I AM trying to scare you..

and NO,  fearlessness is not heroic in all circumstances..

So what is the actual treatment for your back?

And while I may not be as eloquent as our resident ai4tissue, as someone who does deal with chronic pain, pls do be very careful with the painkillers.

Well it's a herniated disc in my lower back, so the approach is to really stay off my feet and avoid bending at the waist for about a week while managing the pain as best I can. Avoid moving and stretching and sitting for extended periods. Continue the icing and heating alternately to confuse the pain, and if it doesn't get significantly better in 4-6 weeks, see a specialist and consider surgery.

Mainly look out for any numbness, unnatural heat levels in the area,  or tingling which can all be very serious - otherwise I'm boned.


TLdR - it's going to hurt a whole lot for a long time and there's not much I can do about it. Honestly, this is easily the highest levels of pain I have experienced in my adult life. Anyone that has disc issues or sciatica knows that feeling of being a paralyzed invalid, it really sucks.

The spinal disks are avascular,  there is no direct blood supply
 
It requires Diffused nutrients.


What has happened is that the arteries leading to your lower spine have been shut off by atheromatous plaque.

This lead to your disk degeneration and eventual herniation.

Further protraction of a Standard 'Murican diet will lead to sciatica / nerve ischemia, if that isn't happening already.




Given noisyturtle's current habits and level of self-control.. PERHAPS,  noisyturtle could do more drugs,   but eat less oils ?


The drugs reduce ones' motivation, and long term total productive output/achievement,  but a high oil diet has proven to be much more immediately painful..


if we were to treat 1 thing at a time.. hrrrmm...

Dude, sorry to hear of your woes. Chronic pain suuuucks, I know. In my situation, pain-killers had no effect. For whatever reason there's a certain anti-depressant that blocks the pain associated with my condition. It causes a couple unwanted side-effects but totally worth the alternative. Trying to diagnose the problem was probably the worst couple months of my life.

I was also diagnosed with degenerative disc disease (generic western speak for "we don't know what's wrong with you") many years ago that used to cause me great discomfort and pain in my neck. After all of the above happened I decided to alter my lifestyle and adopt a more eastern outlook (diet, bedtime, taichi, stretching, etc) and my neck issues are all but a memory. There's still discomfort but it doesn't keep me from doing anything.

Try to stay stress-free. I believe stress, and other situationally-induced hazards, are to blame for a lot of chronic issues these days.

Cleanest garage ever!

Just finished with a wrist rest a few days ago, forgot to clean up, next morning, sanding dust all over my bike.  ;)

Yeah, good point. But if I only have to spend 10 euros for a chance to maybe start drawing as a hobby, im not complaining. Might actually work. ;)

Got up early and did some speed cleaning around the house before guests started arriving.

Family and brothers friends came over for my brothers birthday.

Got to meet my newest Niece, who was one of my brothers b-day presents, a second daughter.

Was a great day of grilling and celebrating which ended up with cleaning and finding out that my cat crapped my pants.

Positive in that was he kept it off the carpet, so I just threw the whole mess out.

Was making some nice pasta at school today, lots of fun.
until some kid managed to set the cooktop on fire then later the table sheets, literally right next to our station.
Fortunately, nobody was hurt.

Kid had never used a cooktop before and claimed that the cooktop wouldn't ignite so he used a lighter to try and light it up.  :eek:

I did some collecting for charity at a sci-fi convention. I cosplayed a little bit, got to sit in a DeLorean that had been tricked out into a Back To The Future - car and sang Happy Birthday to Christopher Lloyd: not at the same time, but those were the highlights.

That's not as weird as a couple of years ago when I helped roll down a Batmobile down a makeshift ramp that we had just built -- because the Batmobile didn't yet have an engine fitted and they couldn't use a forklift for some reason.

Put up some sheetrock and joint compound. This is what happens when you're tenant overflows a toilet.

I went through our 3rd bedroom which has become a storage for us. I'm constantly amazed at how much garbage I have.
I feel like some low level hoarder.

I have, had random crap going back years. I'm talking stuff like a gas receipt for $8 from '08. I don't even own that car anymore.

I also had every box from generations of computer upgrades going back to 2010. Ridiculous.

Anyway, I made some great progress and feel closer to having a 3rd bedroom, or actual guest room.

The cleanse continues…

Not done, that was just the first coat. Disoriented to bridge the gap between the sheetrock and old plaster.  Not my first time doing sheetrock or plaster.

Ideally you'd want to fill in the middle too.. But I'm not sure if you'd buy a big enough tube for that.

Are you using dry mix, or premade.

No need to cover it all just the seams.

Used dry mix for most of it because it's stronger and dries faster. Light compound for the final coats.

I always cover the middle, because otherwise, you run the risk of it looking like there's a donut on the ceiling..

Although depending on your lighting situation, that may not be a big issue.

The joint compound should be very *very* thin. And tapered at the edges. Add ceiling flat, and you won't ever notice it.

It has to be around an 1/8 inch when you lay it on and shrinks about 2:1,  then you put another 8th on there.

the thin taper is for edges.. for the seams you want it thick..  Which is why they usually fill the middle too to prevent depth contrast.

That may be true. I haven't owned a RF. But after owning a HHKB, and FC660C I can make a good guess that I won't love them.

I don't necessarily hate topre. It's just not my cup of tea. Maybe one day I'll try them again and love them.

Today, I dug up some Lego and made my self a laptop stand!

It is surprisingly sturdy and the reason why I need one is that it gets really hot underneath the laptop when under load and having it elevated just simply looks better next to my monitor, no thanks to spending money on a laptop stand.  ;D

Where did you get the keycap boxes?  I really want to get some for my loose sets.

I got them when someone was selling used and slightly defective ones for 10$ each. I should have bought the whole lot
https://www.amazon.com/OLizee-Mechanical-Keyboard-Keycaps-Organizer/dp/B01FFACJTE/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1512394006&sr=8-6&keywords=3+layer+keycap

they are the only thing i have seen that fits SA profile caps, though you cant close the lid it does not matter you can cut the lid off.

they are aliexpress though
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/NPKC-EVA-3-Layers-Keycap-Box-165-Keys-2-Layers-Keycap-Box-108-Keys-For-Keycap/32773366452.html?scm=1007.13440.85618.0&amp;pvid=6c460646-cc5b-4061-993c-a7a3ee567226&amp;tpp=1

there is also the cherry profiles (fits dcs and dsa also though dcs is a tight fit) plastic boxes that sherry has. they are technically from GMK i think, i have a couple of these and they fit like 140 keys.

the surface is only effective for cooling if its exposed to cooler MOVING air..

The chassis being used for convection cooling is mostly ineffective otherwise, and in this case would make your hands sweaty and lap-Hot.   that's why they don't do it.

Drug addicts will inflict self harm, so they can go to the emergency room, where they report pain, and get free drugs.

What does the service do ?

It wasn't at all what I expected. Basically I was interviewed for an hour and a half about my life, my career goals, , what makes me happy, and my experience. Then that information paired with my preexisting resume and experience was compiled, clarified, and separated into 3 different resumes for 3 different jobs.
Essentially the service took my one ****ty nonrepresentational outdated one-page resume and squeezed blood from a stone until it was 3 well-structured strong resumes.
Black magic I'd say, but they did a great job.

If anyone reading this was ever considering a professional resume service but were wary of the cost, I would reassure you it is money more than well-spent imo.

works but sometimes i have to plug it in a few times for it to register all the keys, once connected 100% it works fine with no disconnects or missed keys with TMK (meaning i think its the firmware not the converter), because of that cant count on it to be 100% there on a computer startup.

works but sometimes i have to plug it in a few times for it to register all the keys, once connected 100% it works fine with no disconnects or missed keys with TMK (meaning i think its the firmware not the converter), because of that cant count on it to be 100% there on a computer startup.

Nice. I'll be doing one of those soon.

TIL going into the job market with a killer resume is basically like having a paid DLC weapon in a deathmatch.  :thumb:

I was doubtful throughout the process, but after seeing what was returned to me a resume service is probably one of the best things I've ever spent my money on.
[/uote]

Not sure what industry you are in, but in my industry (project management), it isn't easy to get an interview without having one's resume be ATS-friendly.  And many times, that requires somebody who knows what words to use for specific industries.

(ATS is applicant tracking system).

Today I quit my job at Amazon ;D yesterday was my 6 month mark.

I've had a second job for 3 months that pays twice as much, has a flexible schedule, and most importantly, doesn't take a toll mentally or physically.

Not technically today (although it did extend past midnight) but spent yesterday afternoon and evening "upgrading" my computer, reinstalling windows (to fix the issues with leftover drivers) and downloading all my programs and any updates (surprisingly few...).

Although today I did test out two games that were giving me trouble due to my rather terrible prior CPU, and well, not so much anymore (went from a slow motion crawl @ about 40 FPS minimum in the yard section of Resident Evil 7 to a buttery smooth rock-steady 60 FPS). Not sure if I'm even gonna bother to overclock really, as I'm using the stock cooler and I don't want to ruin this mobo (although this time the VRM's <i>are</i> fully heatsinked.

I also looked over my old motherboard and realized that yes, one of the VRM mosfets was not covered by the heatsink, and yes, it did indeed blow.

--- The brain is vascular.. and while there is the blood brain barrier, we still see sneaky cholesterol/fats get through given enough time..  This results in clogged brains.  When they examine the brains of stroke victims, even older fat-adults,   they see fats inside the tiny brain vessels.

I was awakened at 4:15 AM or so by a weird hissing sound...
I located that it came from the metal lid on an old glass jar filled with apple cider vinegar that I had once been dipping steel objects into to give the a patina. I had kept it around if I would need to patina more stuff.
Apparently, the fumes of the vinegar had softened a 1/2" circular hole in the steel lid and was oozing out from a crack in the lid's paint.
I patched it with a piece of tape and went back to sleep.

I've read in several places that sleeping during teh day can help improve concentration in the afternoon.

As I got about 2 hours sleep last night due to the unpleasant weather, I thought I'd give it a go.

Got woken up 3 minutes early by someone else's phone ringing.

Now my eyes won't focus and I can't stop yawning.

Still tired as.

Afternoon nap is common in many cultures..

It's important that you get the FULL sleep cycle, otherwise you will wake up Tired..

A full cycle is approximately  15minutes (to get to sleep) + ~90mins (of sleep). 

assuming you are tired enough to fall asleep within 5 minutes, then that's 95 minutes.


I'm not sure how that gels into your workplace..

But for example in Asia,  everyone takes a long nap after lunch. -well maybe not everyone,  but many people.. -

1.5 to 2 hours for a nap won't go down well here.  Plus I'd have to get to work an extra hour or two earlier, which would mean less sleep overnight, exacerbating the problem.

I finalized the design for a critical part in my next trebuchet using SolidWorks for the CAD software including stress analysis for roughly 3 times the intended load.  Don't worry about the visual representation of the deformation, it is magnified about 170 times for easier viewing.

[attach=1]
This first image is the deformation scale.  Total deflection is only about 0.0035"

[attach=2]
This image is the pressure in the part.  The simulation was tested with a 1000 pound load at the top middle filet with the two lower outside holes as the fixed points as that is where the axle for the track wheels is going to be located.

I finalized the design for a critical part in my next trebuchet using SolidWorks for the CAD software including stress analysis for roughly 3 times the intended load.  Don't worry about the visual representation of the deformation, it is magnified about 170 times for easier viewing.

(Attachment Link)
This first image is the deformation scale.  Total deflection is only about 0.0035"

(Attachment Link)
This image is the pressure in the part.  The simulation was tested with a 1000 pound load at the top middle filet with the two lower outside holes as the fixed points as that is where the axle for the track wheels is going to be located.

You've done all that, and I managed to install an addon into Thunderbird.

Sometimes I get the feeling that I'm not adulting properly.

I wonder why mel is running simulation on that part, maybe there's a size constraint..

If it were me, I would've just eyeballed the general size to fit the mountings, and added a centimeter of metal all around..

Steel is pretty tough stuff, and this isn't a device for repetitious industrial use.

The reason for the simulation on the part is to minimize weight and maintain enough strength given it is a known load. And this isn't being made out of steel, it is 6061 T6 aluminum.  And no it isn't going to be for repeated industrial use, but it is going to be used fairly frequently. 

It isn't really a size constraint, but lighter is more efficient and allows more energy wasted in the carriage instead of going into the projectile.

Not sayin' you shouldn't do it

and You're correct in principle.

Buhh , steel or aluminum, thicc/thin,   even with all the load bearing metal widgets together, it's probably only a small proportion of total weight..

A soft patch of dirt is likely to have greater influence on conversion.

Overall, the plates are probably going to be roughly a third to half of the weight of the entire moving apparatus minus the counterweight which is the engine for this. 

With the way the base of the machine is going to be setup, a soft patch won't make any difference.

This is essentially what I am making.


These plates are the pieces that tie the main axle to the rollers on the track.  This machine is being designed with efficiency as a primary design criteria.  This means, outside of the counterweight, everything is being designed to be as light as feasible while retaining just enough strength.  The throwing arm is going to be carbon fiber with a guy wire made from multiple strands of 65 lb test braided dyneema fishing line, because it doesn't stretch and while carbon fiber is very stiff and light weight, flex is a bad thing outside of its envelope.  It has a very small elastic deformation window before it breaks.  But up until that it is very strong and stiff.

The worst example I have seen had tenderloin, bearnaise sauce, curry powder, banana and peanuts, but it is unusual. Döner kebab meat pizza is quite common.
But most people have the classics: tomato sauce and cheese with mushrooms or ham, or both.

I've heard that there are also quite weird pizzas in Japan. Beef curry seems to be common there.

Those ingredients are increasingly bizarre.. some of which combine well with another or two.. but all together?? I am doubtful.. Bernaise instead of tomato sauce or as a drizzle on top?  :confused:

I would be interested in trying the kebab variety, that doesn't sound too strange but I hear its also common for pizza to be served with a sort of coleslaw.. Have you ever had curry on pizza? It seems popular

As you know, I love peanut butter and banana together (with a little honey on toast is great snack)... and I've definitely seen a peanut sauce served with all kinds of meats, but banana + tenderloin or tomato sauce sounds revolting

You get really weird pizza in china, it's like either not real cheese, or modified cheese.. IDK what'sup with that..

But when they do get out a normal pizza, it's very small and thin..

Nothing like 'Murica.. with that 1.5 inch thick slab of sponge cheese.. ..

I had Taco Bell delivered. Not the healthiest food out there, but the fact that I have no car and delivery is now available in my area made for a nice change of pace. I did go lighter though and had a couple of their relatively small chicken and rice burritos (which they once called the Spicy Chicken burrito) instead of something bigger; this had the bonus of saving me a few bucks and still filling me up.

Rode my bike too fast down a slope and the breaks did not take well... and I ran right into a stand of wild raspberries.
Got a couple of cuts on my left leg but not much else. The bike seems fine too.

Stupid stupid stupid of me to not pay attention to road conditions and take the slope too fast.
But on the other hand, if I hadn't done it I would not have found raspberries.

When I was in New Jersey I enjoyed hiking the South Mountain Reservation near South Orange, and on top of the "mountain" (a big hill to someone raised in the Appalachians) was a huge field of raspberries that fruited for about 2 weeks in late June.

While waiting for my lost luggage to show up (48 hours after I landed home), and the internet/tv went out, I thought it'd be a perfectly good time to restore and convert the M0110 that I've had for a little while.

Saw "Solo" with my son this weekend. The visuals and production were great but the plot was embarrassing.

Poor ragamuffins breaking free from the dystopian planet, could anything be more trite?

A train heist? Hello, Firefly?

The double/triple/quadruple-cross at the end?

And the Lando Calrissian character was genuinely pathetic.

Well.. Overall, I think there's the common attitude by Non-Trek folks to approach the comparison as Apple vs Oranges.. 

I think that is taking things out of scale.

Star Trek is like a Watermelon  vs  StarWars a Grape..


They are different things, and both have Value..   But as good as the Grape is,  it's a Grape, a SINGLE GRAPE..


Trek is well defined and extensive enough to be AN ENTIRE WAY OF LIFE..  While Star Wars is a pleasant day out at best....

Case swap and some sleeving.  Moved from a Fractal Design Nano S (which is an awesome case, just too big for ITX) to a Geeek MX110.  I have always loved acrylic cases and this one is built quite nicely.  Also figured I would single sleeve my SF450 psu to make it all fit nice and clean.  I had to cut and solder all the trace wires to keep it clean on the 24 pin (the Y's near the psu in the photos).  Overall, I am very happy with the outcome.

That case looks nice. Seems to have about the same dimensions as my Jonsbo/Cooltek U3, which are perfect dimensions IMHO.
My case does not have are a proper motherboard tray with cutouts, front drive mounts or holes for top fans.. and the layout is upside-down from yours. I will recommend people to look at that case instead of the Jonsbo from now on.

For the price, it is very easy for me to recommend.  Fair warning though, it comes flat packed and needs to be built.  It took me about an hour to put it together.  Also, the GPU bracket holder on the back is not the most sturdy thing.  Took a bit of fiddling to get it solid.   

[attachimg=1]


Here you can see the lack of anywhere to actually bolt the top of the gpu bracket.  It uses a plate that slides down to put pressure on the bent tabs of the bracket and that plate is then tightened in place.  Not perfect.  I may actually just build a small aluminum bracket that bolts to the holes for the factory slider and allows me to actually put a screw into the gpu.  Not really an issue as is though since I don't move my case much.  I also added a little kickstand to hold the front of the gpu up (used one of the punched pieces from the pci slots and just measured and drilled a hole to bolt in a spare hole on the hdd bracket).

I ended up buying an antique hob nob style globe lamp with hardware from Craigslist and replacing the short electrical cord and chain with a longer set. Then I had to buy a hammer drill because of our old, rock-hard cinderblock walls. Now, she wants me to install shelves above her desk.  :eek:

I feel like a man!

9am: Telecon with boss man.  Looks like I might get my Scrum certification paid for by employer.  w00t!

10am: Breakfast w/ the wifey.  Corned beef hash, poached eggs, hash browns, diet coke, sourdough toast.

11am: Off to the pharm to pick up meds.

12pm: Late shower.

1pm: Haircut (#2 all over- tight)

2:30pm: Picked up kid from after school coding activity.  And he wanted chess club, bleh.

3pm: Dropped in on tiger team telecon (currently on speaker in background).  Amazing what ****e happens when consultants are brought in without a fully fleshed out SoW or project plan.

I'm going to miss this entire remote work thing when I have to return to on-site 10/1.

Finished a run of Bioshock Remastered on Normal. Did the Proving Grounds level--second to last, where you escort a little sister around while dealing with hostile turrets and hordes of splicers--without losing a single little sister. Granted the one I had did lose 2/3 of her health before making it through the level, but still, this is something I've never done before. It was a pretty sweet accomplishment, even if it was only a video game.

Didn't have any coffee this morning so I decided to drink a caffeinated 250mg marijuana 'energy' drink and go grocery shopping. 45 minutes later standing in the produce section like a zombie I realized what a grave error I had made. I grabbed some coffee and frozen pizzas and got the **** out of there, then somehow got home and took a nap.

Cut ties with my Aunt Penny, who pulled her holier than thou bull**** for the last time. I know it seems extreme, but considering the abuse she's put me and my mom through over the years, I should have done it before now.

Also, found my stepbrother on Facebook. Was quite shocked. I haven't spoken to him or his mother in a few years now (circumstances beyond our control), and have been trying to find a way to reach him ever since. Needless to say I took this opportunity, and now I'm quite glad I didn't give up Facebook (I wasn't affected by the most recent breach, since I don't use the feature that it took advantage of).

But pay no attention to the beard.

My hairline receded a bit over the last few years (currently in my early 30s), but I still have enough on top to pull this off, methinks. The haircut I got today was by a new guy, but he did a really good job. I got a mid fade, but next time I may ask for a high fade.

Yea.. Go for it.

Something like in the photo will look good on pretty much anyone..


Now, keep in mind, the dramatic curves and lifts you see there.

That requires:

Blow dry or Iron

Finish with a little hair spray. (can not use gel/wax), must be spray.

Morning process is no more than 5 minutes once you figure out how to do it up.

Thanks, tp! I'll show the guy the picture next time. I was going to today but felt a bit reserved.
I realize there's probably post-production that goes into that haircut in the picture, but a good haircut will help a ton. These days I don't have time to blowdry, but I do use product a handful of times of week, fewer so the longer my hair grows.

They retconned some minor things I believe ultimately for the better, and left basically all of DB, and DBZ(aside from the movies) untouched. I was unsure if seeing it on a big screen would have any impact, but it really did. The fight scene between Vegeta and Broly/Goku and Broly were intense. They also brought back/made cannon a slew of forgotten DBZ characters, for better or worse.  :thumb:

In the morning an old lady **** herself in the front entrance and tracked what looked like red bean chili (it was NOT chili) from the door all the way to the bathroom.

Later in the afternoon a prostitute od'd and died in the parking lot, and her pimp came in dressed like what I imagine a leprechaun would wear to a pickup basketball game and tried to fight the manager for calling the cops. He had a teardrop tattoo in the shape of Florida under his left eye, which I feel like tells me enough about who he is to not wanna know anymore.

It's weird how what you might think of as a quiet, clean town has the same kinda ****ed up **** going on as some big city bus station. The only way to truly live as a human being is away from all other people so there's no one else to blame.

Isn't it better for the processing program to detect field positions by keywords in the header row?

Indeed it is but opted to use the pre-built flat file processing capabilities of SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) which isn't best when it comes to meta data changes (terrible and half baked actually). I know this use case can happen and want to ensure the correct data always goes to the correct fields in the database. My utility is a command line application in C# that takes different parameters such as the file name and comma separated list of column names which my program then uses to reorder the columns. Depending on the parameters I backup/overwrite the original file or write a new file. I pretty much got it all done in a day but my head was spinning for some reason. Last week I wrote a command line utility that converts Excel files to CSV because I had issues with Office Interop Assemblies on this older server so I did my own thing and am getting cleaner results than I would have had I got the built in SSIS Excel processing to work. My philosophy was to change nothing on this server as to not break anything and make it bullet proof so I can hand it of and literally never see it again as that server will belong to another company as my parent company I work for sold off a smaller business so we are obligated to transition the infrastructure and applications to the cloud as an intermediate step and make sure all applications will work. The new company will eventually take this over and transition as they see fit. So basically I'm just doing my part to make sure that one process will run on it's own as it was previously a half baked process.

I got it all working today and next I just need to do some final touches and connect the rest of the dots, do a little more testing, document it a little, and then done. Basically this is processing data from a third party I think sent over email and is a business requirement so not something that would easily just be thrown away although they could do something different down the road. If anything they would probably upgrade to a newer server and newer version of SQL Server and this could be migrated with it.

Towards the eod there was a commotion in the back of the store. I run back there to see this guy just straight up punching his gf/wife. There were about half a dozen people just standing there watching doing ****ing nothing at all, just standing letting it happen including this jacked Spanish dude who could've easily stepped in and stopped it. So I couldn't stand there and I got up behind the piece of **** and just held him in a bear hug for about 10 minutes until the cops showed up. Took a few headbutts to the chin, but nothing serious. Man.

Everyone in the store was acting like I was some sort of hero after, but I would like to think anyone else would have stepped in and stopped that injustice. Guess I was wrong.

I don't get paid enough.

This is why we need AI security drones. !! They can respond to a variety of dangerous situations in low latency and full selflessness. Drones so Noisyturtle and Jacked Spanished dudes are not put in harms way to save feeble girlfriends from violent boyfriends.

That or people could stop being a**holes to each other.

We got this tree here,  there are going to be good apples, but also bad ones.

Unavoidable. 

But as is the solution to all of life's other problems, Drones. !!

Think of all the Noisyturtles risking their lives to save good apples.

Doing some -rowdy- math,  1-1 apple = 0 apples.

Went to a Pokemon TCG Prerelease. I haven't been to one in about a decade. Last I remember, the shop waited until they had enough members, sat everyone down by age group, and handed out booster packs and the Prerelease promos.

Today I went to the card shop which had a few tables set up, and the newish "Build & Battle Box" display was at the checkout counter. I grabbed a box each for me and my daughter, inquired of the clerk as to how this worked as I haven't bought one in a while, and the clerk informed me that I just purchased the boxes and could play if I wanted. I was a little let down, but perhaps it was because the venue was so small compared to other shops. I plan on attending more in the future as Prerelease events were so much fun. I've slowly been crawling back into the hobby because my daughter is getting to the age where she can play, and her school friends are gushing over the cards.
What a dangerous toll on my debit card this presents...

Not what I wanted to do.... Planned on lubing up my batch of Trash Pandas & building my E6.5 today, but I was so wiped out from work this week I ended up falling asleep watching YT videos. It did kinda work out though, as I realized I would rather put my Red Pandas into it. Problem being I only got like 20 of them left & will have to desolder my Redscarf to get the rest available.

MUCH better 2nd day. I think I may actually be able to pull this off. They are being very kind about my lack of technical knowledge, so I think they hired me because they thought I'd make a decent manager and can pick up the skills as I go. It's ****ing working, thank goodness. It was a good day.

I used to move locations every few years, although doing the same thing (for the same people) I found that I had to re-learn how to do everything as everyone had different methods and ways of processing stuff.

I am sure that you will pick it all up in no time. If not, aren't you the supervisor, just fake it like half of the other supervisors that ever existed.



MUCH better 2nd day. I think I may actually be able to pull this off. They are being very kind about my lack of technical knowledge, so I think they hired me because they thought I'd make a decent manager and can pick up the skills as I go. It's ****ing working, thank goodness. It was a good day.

It has been a couple of days now. Hows it going? Fill us in.

It's actually going really damn well. I'm hiring people for my own team, I have an office. It's insane like it's all happening through a window.

To actually be challenged and constantly learning is invigorating. No idea why I was being so complacent and selling myself short all these years, this is amazing!

Appreciate you asking  :-*

Colonoscopy. I have the routine down now.

As usual, the week of food restrictions and the day of prep had been worse than the colonoscopy itself, which went very smoothly. I actually find it interesting to see inside. I didn't get a glimpse this time of the waving cilia inside my small intestine: those are otherwise pretty cool.

I've not had anything for over a month but the 'confusion ... may be permanent' side effect from early August is a scary possibility.  It's that or I'm dehydrated regardless of how much I drink, they're looking at that in January.

I've not even got a sicknote so I suppose 3 months is pretty good, though if they don't know what's wrong with me so I need a scan how do they know I'm not dying?  Maybe I have  brain tumor causing the headache and affecting other bodily functions, they are assuming it's the other way round...

... Yes.  Something that doesn't show up in a blood test and doesn't make your guts look abnormal on an ultrasound scan but may appear on a better (CT) scan.  May also make you susceptible to infections though that could be caused by the antibiotics given for initial symptoms, as could the stupidity.   I'm not mentally retarded enough to be signed off work so they aren't taking the head aspect very seriously.

You can print those charts online and just eyeball the prescription @ home.

If it's slightly blurry, up 0.25 to 0.5 diopters.

The only thing that the eye doc has which you don't is the astigmatism measurement. Which isn't 100% necessary.

Buh.. what if wifu then instead of Curating keeb-collection like a pious wifu would, she turns to SELL keeb-collection to fund her expensive tryst with another lover; the very same one who she was seeing behind dingusxmcgee. The Interloper who encouraged her to take this path of Mariticide to collect the death insurance + sell Keebs.

If dingusx would name Geekhack as benefactor to keeb collection and insurance, Geekhack promises to see to it that all funds will be utilized to enshrine Keebs for display in the Greatest Glory.

It was a short contract but that's tech life and I have to job hunt like 2x a year. It sucks, but I can't escape it. It's either do something I hate or make half the money and I'm too old and broke to go back to school for something else.

Ah I get it. Yeah I know a few people that do contract work in telecommunications and they make like double what the salaried employees do but they also get canned during reshuffles and I think they may have to operate under a business number.

Good that you have a few interviews lined up already.

There's some talk about the tech industry unionizing. I'd really love to see that happen in my lifetime, contract workers get the **** end of the stick especially in entry-level positions. I've known workers who travel over 2 hrs by bus to work at a minimum wage job in the gaming industry under a limited contract, no one should have to put up with that.

Oh I totally agree with you on that. My job has about 90 percent union membership. The other 10 percent is mainly management. We took industrial action last year which consisted of walk outs at one stage. We still don't have the pay rise we want but we just got the 2.5 percent that they were originally going to give us whilst arbitration takes its course. So anything extra is now a bonus.

I could not imagine working minimum wage on a contract and having to sacrifice so much travel time to accommodate it.

AH I just ****ing did this again except with Ramen ****ing NOODLES. No pic this time as i threw the **** in the sink and turned the water on ASAP. There was a lot of noodle and noodle soup in and around the keys.

HHKB is back together and working just fine. Turned out it needed a serious clean anyway. Also removed the Gold HHKB stick and some of the other coloured keys. Liking the stock look. Only two green bros.

should prolly stock dat 99% isopro for soaking in future accidents.

I already had an almost empty can on hand that I used immediately after the tap. I went to Jaycar to get another can and I could't find it. I asked the store wizard and he was like "Yeah I just put like 15 cans on the shelf". We go there and he is like WTF where has it all gone. I think the virus tweakers may have come in an bought it all.

I ended up getting a manual sprayer, it is not the same but it will do.

Took a 3-mile hike in a nearby state park with 5 friends that I hadn't seen in years.

I was afraid that my knee would act up, but I think that it actually did more good than whatever wear and tear I suffered.

2. Fuel station - wife didn't want to leave, so I took car for fuel.  Bright side - gas is dropping in price.

Spent like 4 hours starting to make a game where you play as a crow and go around recruiting other crows in the neighborhood by influencing them, and the object is to spread your crow plague to all the homes in the neighborhood. I was gonna call it CORVID19.

But then I remembered how much work it is making games solo, so yeah. Not finishing this one.

Snoozed on the sofa for an hour while he watched innane kids TV.
Made breakfast and then persevered with my fight against murderous thoughts for three hours till nap time.
Failed to get son to eat lunch.
Sent him to bed for nap.
An hour later, he wakes up.
We work in the garden for a few hours.
Almost fail to get him to eat dinner, but persevere with threats of only getting one Wheatabix in the morning, which convinces him to eat.
Put him to bed.
Spend an hour getting up every two minutes to get him his damn water which is on a shelf with a light next to it about 30cm from his head, so he could easily get it.

A 5km walk takes an average person ~1hour and burns ~190kcal. It's much more efficient to lose weight via diet.

I've heard that for many people with very high BMI, keto diet is especially successful.

Um... It's not that straightforward. You don't walk to burn calories during the walk. You do it to boost your base metabolic rate throughout the course of the day, which is what really burns more calories. And you do it all in conjunction with attention to diet.

If you simply restrict calorie intake without any other adjustments, your metabolism slows down as a survival adaptation, and the main effect is that you feel miserable without health improvements.

What I said about base metabolic rate effects has been accepted widely for well over a decade, it's been well covered in papers since prior 2010. Similarly, extreme dieting and slowed metabolic effects have been documented ad nauseum.

If someone is getting out and getting exercise in, I don't think it's helpful to try to discourage or deflect that in any way.

This is absolutely correct. Dieting in the traditional caloric restriction sense is not effective in the majority of cases.

Calories in/calories out is the only thing that really matters in weight loss. If you lose 200 calories by not drinking a Pepsi or by exercising, it doesn't matter. It does the same thing. 200 calories less will, over enough time, lower your weight. This is a dumb argument and I don't know why you guys are even having it considering it doesn't matter whatsoever.

It's not as simple as that.

For example, You can say cars just need gasoline.  But if you put low octane fuel in an engine designed for high-octane, it will not run smoothly and can knock.

For the longest time we've oversimplified our approach to healthy eating, and the result speaks for themselves.

I dunno. I believe every person has a base max weight, that even not exercising and eating like garbage you will always hover around that weight within less than 10lbs. I've found that max base increases by about 15-20lbs every 10 years. The same also goes for minimum base, at 25 if I wanted to get under 170 that was a hard wall that required an exponentially greater amount of exercise than staying at 170-180.

Sure you can eat/starve yourself to death, pushing that base beyond the normal amount. But that takes about as much work being unhealthy as it does getting to under your minimum base as well. People who are super fat worked hard to get that way, it doesn't just happen without conscious effort. Same for getting super fit, doesn't just happen.

People who are super fat worked hard to get that way, it doesn't just happen without conscious effort. Same for getting super fit, doesn't just happen.

NT, I'm not against creativity, but this invention of yours is probably not helpful.

Calories in/calories out is the only thing that really matters in weight loss. If you lose 200 calories by not drinking a Pepsi or by exercising, it doesn't matter. It does the same thing. 200 calories less will, over enough time, lower your weight. This is a dumb argument and I don't know why you guys are even having it considering it doesn't matter whatsoever.

I dunno. I believe every person has a base max weight, that even not exercising and eating like garbage you will always hover around that weight within less than 10lbs. I've found that max base increases by about 15-20lbs every 10 years. The same also goes for minimum base, at 25 if I wanted to get under 170 that was a hard wall that required an exponentially greater amount of exercise than staying at 170-180.

You are telling me the 'hard wall' doesn't exist? That's just nonsense. You cannot just keep losing weight at the exact same rate once you drop below a certain weight, it doesn't work that way and it requires an increase in effort the further you push that line.

see? it's real. And it's the same for fatness, there's a point where you are fat enough to be able to eat anything until you're full and not gain anymore weight.

I woke up at 06:40am and went for a walk, 5K.
I've done it for last 4 days and I like it.
I will try to do that everyday, as long as scottish weather let me ;)

At least this I can do to try and lose weight...
A 5km walk takes an average person ~1hour and burns ~190kcal. It's much more efficient to lose weight via diet.

I've heard that for many people with very high BMI, keto diet is especially successful.

Yep, tried keto, worked fine for a month or two, lost about 10-13kg - couldn't stand not eating bread and sweets. Stopped it, ate bread and sweets, gained weight, unhappy again :(

Can I ask where in Scotland? I have very fond memories of the Highlands- Fort William area, Cairngorms, and Skye. Also of Edinburgh, but those memories tend to be a lot... blurrier.

Glasgow. It rains here. A lot. But there's haggis.

Day 6 with no phone. The first few days were brutal, I kept thinking about all the calls I was missing. But today and yesterday have been not so bad. Almost relaxing.

Going a week without a cell phone sounds like some sort of zoomer challenge, but I'd never had done it had it not been forced on me. Today I didn't even think about my phone at all until a few minutes ago.

No, those are more rare and found in much lower and warmer regions. This was up in the Great Smoky Mountains so it was either a black racer or a black rat snake.

Another horrible wasted day where I got nothing done and felt completely drained of energy. Didn't eat anything, got no work done, didn't even feel like playing video games. For like 40 mins I literally just sat on the edge of my bed staring at nothing.

Seems like the last year or so these sort of days are closer and closer together.

I woke up about 07:45 (which is fine, we have a toddler, so that’s a lie-in) to find my wife’s face staring at me.
She said “There’s an illegal rave” to which I thought “That’s a very weird thing to dream”

Turns out there HAS actually been a massive illegal rave the other side of the city from us with a very powerful sound system and she’d been awake since 5am.

Fair enough.

I thought that it actually did a pretty good job of telling the story of his life - for what it was, all things considered.

But it was excruciatingly long, slow, and repetitive. It could have been compressed to about 1/3 of its original length without losing anything.

No coincidence that you quickly made that association!

Beyond that, I wish that there was a lot more story and a lot less "action" particularly the relentless and interminable silly fight scenes.

In general, the early ones were better than the later ones, and the first film for each character was usually the best.

One thing to note, I was a huge fan of the Dr Strange comics in the 1960s-1970s, and although I had low expectations for the movie it actually turned out to be quite good.

I mean, one is potato-ey, one is chocolatey - so I'd suspect the latter and since ice-cream and brownies together taste good, that makes sense.

On the other hand, some people like dipping chips in milkshake, so could be the former I guess.

Went grocery shopping and on the way home these two kids tried to guilt me out of my food or something. It was a really weird experience. Just walking and these two teenagers start following me asking for things out of my bag, like the bread was sticking out and they were saying "Yo can we have your bread? We're hungry. How about some sodas, you got 12 of them." They literally used the race card saying, "Come on give us your bread, Black Lives Matter." And they just kept following me for like two blocks until I blew up at them and started going off about how broke I am and their guilt trip bull**** isn't going to work on someone already struggling and they were just like "Oh you're having a bad day my bad." and just walked off.

What would make anyone **** with someone like this? What was their intention? It was a very confusing and passive aggressive encounter. This is why I don't like leaving the house.

I've tried nothing and I'm all out of answers man! lol already given up on this streaming thing, can't return this new mic though :(
I feel a certain responsibility to have talking points and interesting things to talk about, then look at the top viewed channels and it's just someone sitting there talking about literally nothing for 6 hours straight. Literally no content "Uhh I'm sleepy today and had a hamburger for lunch. Oh here's my cat say hi Dipshoit" silence for 20 seconds "Uhhh so hey guys how is everyone today?" ignores chat "Well time to fake being scared of horror games and just yell in high pitched squeels for 5 hours, don't forget to donate to the least deserving human on the planet you dumb *******s!

A boomer shooter is a sub category of the FPS genre that specifically focuses on old school level design and visuals that were prevalent in 1990's FPS design.
Recently there has been both a resurgence of love for those original forefathers (like DOOM, Quake, Blood, Duke) as well as a reignited passion for that type of game design in new indie devs (Dusk, Ion Maiden, Proteus, Amid Evil)

Post by: funkmon on Wed, 27 January 2021, 02:07:46
I believe I'm one of the target audience with these shooters, but I definitely don't like them. I think new Doom and new Wolfenstein are very fun, and I enjoy playing Marathon still sometimes, so people recommend some of the retro style shooting games reminiscent of Doom, but they're just...not that good IMO. I have still yet to play Dusk though, and I understand it's very very good.

I liked Project Warlock and Ion Fury - both a bit different, but enjoyable, retro-looking shooters. First one with interesting graphics, but I guess not everybody's flavor, then second one - almost exat same as Duke Nukem.
I played both couple of hours, liked it enough to return it them some day, but not to finish them like I had in habit to do with old games back in the days. Just being older and losing interest in finishing long games:)

Dusk is phenomenal. Wonderful level design that's just complex enough without being confusing. The guy designed it does a great job of signposting things or making them easy to recognise so you don't get lost.

Amid Evil is good but looser with open levels ala Unreal 1.

There are a lot of crappy endless retro styled FPS games that didn't float my boat. Devil Daggers was probably the only one grabbed me for a few weeks.

I believe I'm one of the target audience with these shooters, but I definitely don't like them. I think new Doom and new Wolfenstein are very fun, and I enjoy playing Marathon still sometimes, so people recommend some of the retro style shooting games reminiscent of Doom, but they're just...not that good IMO. I have still yet to play Dusk though, and I understand it's very very good.

Dusk is phenomenal. Wonderful level design that's just complex enough without being confusing. The guy designed it does a great job of signposting things or making them easy to recognise so you don't get lost.

Amid Evil is good but looser with open levels ala Unreal 1.

There are a lot of crappy endless retro styled FPS games that didn't float my boat. Devil Daggers was probably the only one grabbed me for a few weeks.

Also almost every boomer shooter of the last4 years has had music done by the one and only Andrew Hulshult, who also happened to do some damn fine work on the DOOM Eternal soundtrack. Watch this guy's career.

that is one of the best part of the boomer shooter renaissance, banggers soundtracks, tons of them have really great musics and to me music is a rather huge part of a game enjoyment

how do you move like that, i only start wearing a jacket when the temperature is under -5°C, because i find having shirt+sweatshirt already cumbersome so the inconvenience of the extra layer outweighs the comfort benefit to me quite often.

If I am doing physical labor outside I will "layer" clothing so that I can peel it off incrementally, but otherwise I wear a single shirt appropriate for indoors and whatever single jacket/coat that matches the requirement for the outdoor temperature.

Unless it is extremely cold and/or windy and/or rainy which requires a more complex layering.

I know I think about sad things too, but more I think over things, I come to the weird conclusions.
However, I always like when I come to conclusion, that I need to enjoy my life more, as there are too many sad things surrounding us and life is too sad just to go with its flow.

I had two opportunities at some ill-gotten but free money today. One where a gentleman on crutches was getting onto the bus and dropped a literal wad of cash without noticing. I picked it up, got his attention, and gave it right back. Then at a store I gave the clerk exact change but they didn't look and assumed I paid in $20s, handing me back some cash that I promptly told them was incorrect.

I'm not a bad person and I try to do good when able, yet I am still 2 months behind on rent and barely able to afford my own food. In retrospect maybe this was the Universe trying to help me out, and I inadvertently screwed it up by trying to do the right thing?

Sometimes it just doesn't feel good being good. Karma's a *****.

I always felt that Topre 55g wasn't enough for me.
Years ago I tried MX green, was fine, but clicks were driving me nuts.
Then tried Tealios 67g, also not enough.
Then tried Glorious holy pandas 67g, was very nice, loved the lack of pre-travel - this is a must for me in tactile switches.
Now went for Zealios v2 78g - these are amazing, loving them so far. But started to worry if I will feel them too overwhelming with time, then should I lube them.

Time will tell. Sooner or later, time will tell... :D

I closed my PayPal-account that I had had since 2002.

PayPal had gone to ****. Forced two-factor authentication on users without verifying that the contact info they had worked or having ways to contact them to get it fixed, and which therefore locked out a large number of users. At the same time, started charging users for inactivity. And... started trading in Bitcoin, which is a crime against the earth and humanity.

I agree quick-reward reinforcement loops are a contributor to it. Part of me feels like I am not worth working on to be made better, part of me feels as if I am incapable of doing so. The past 8 years have proven that I cannot hold success, whether through events that are out of my control, or my own self-sabotage, I always fail at everything.

TP is correct, as you agree, and I'm right there with you...at least concerning some of what you said. The last 2 years have been the worst continuous years of my life and there's no sign of anything getting better. Health issues, self-esteem issues, job-issues, lack of productivity, despair...all getting worse. It's been a trying 2 years inside of an already trying 10 year period. It's tough, man, and I feel ya.  :(  I don't have any answers for you because I don't have any for myself. I've been to counseling, have a great support system of loved ones, and plenty of tools to help me get better. I just don't think I can do it (self-esteem) and I've wasted crap-loads of time and effort (low motivation and productivity) into trying to fix things...to no avail. What I do find useful, although temporary, is "doing things". Hanging out with friends and/or just driving around doing errands gets my mind off the bad stuff. But they're only distractions. Once I come back home and sit in my Chair of Despair *patent pending* it all comes rushing back.

I find it odd that it's so difficult for you to die on the streets of Orlando. Most people here can do it while trying not to! Try it while biking...Floridians hate bikers and will try to run them over.

I suppose it was negative. Then at least you accomplished something.

I was supposed to have a gastroscopy today to check for cancer. Got a nervous breakdown instead.
Accomplished nothing.

Sorry to hear about that  :(  I should probably get one of those too but am too anxious to consider it. I had my first colonoscopy last year and it was one of the most awful experiences I've ever had, due to a pelvic condition that I have and to my needle phobia. It was two days of various horrible, continuous discomfort.

Switch to a Whole Food Plant Based lifestyle,   greatly reduces the risk of Colon cancer.

Don't eat any imported berries,   some come from belarus, and they run hot.

I've heard that Wyman's Wild Blueberries (frozen) are good for cleansing the innards, as well as freshly-juiced celery.

TP, you can preach the grass-fed diet all you want but most people are not willing to give up their "delicious" foods. Abstinence from something as enjoyable as food and drink is like never listening to good music or never having sex again (if you enjoy music and sex). Even people who pay doctors to tell them to alter their diets don't do it.

Also, some people's bodies do not do well under grass-fed conditions.

I don't disagree that there may be cases of such persons as you describe,  but the Researched Science clearly indicates, the VAST Majority of humans are healthier on a whole food plant based diet.

Check out Nutritionfacts.org , great videos , short to the point explanations.

Thanks. I have no problems with colonoscopies though. I have one every year, because of a special condition. Most people only need to have them once every decade after the age of 50 to stay completely safe of colorectal cancer.
For me, and for most people too, the worst part is the prep.

BTW. I hope you got around your needle phobia enough to get vaccinated at least.
A relative of mine has a kid who is afraid of needles and never did — and last week that kid infected its whole immediate family with Omicron.

European wild blueberries (small ones, also called "bilberries") are the opposite though: used against diarrhea. I dunno about American blueberries, but the European small ones are considered a "super-food" because of their concentration of vitamins.
They are a staple here in Sweden, so I consume lots of them either way.

BTW. There's a huge annual cross-country ski-race (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasaloppet) in Sweden on Sunday, for the 100th year with thousands of participants — and hot "blueberry soup" is traditionally served to skiers at stations along the track.

Prep was the worst for me too, especially the IV I had to endure in my arm for what seemed like an eternity before they started the procedure (my 1st, and hopefully last, IV).

And YET,  if anyone eats meat, <in factory farms>  the meat is literally raised in the animal's "own toilet".

50-80% chicken off the shelves are contaminated with feces

chickens are staked 5 lvls high, they just p00 on each other's heads.

pigs are raised for ~6 months in pens with 1000s of other pigs, they poo where they stand, only a few feet above raw sewage of ALL of those pigs, that sewage is pumped only 20 feet next to the pen into a giant LAKE of basically anerobically fermenting p00,  they don't even bother to buy / use the bacterea for treating sewage, it's just untreated, and left there, then AEROSOL pumped over a field to dry.

ALL THAT is going into the air, and back into the ventilation system of the Pig Pens.

Seriously, the free healthcare in the US is literally worse in many cases than not having any insurance at all. It is so messed up over her.
Now many entry level jobs do not offer healthcare either, and specifically offer workers one hour under the full-time weekly requirement in hours just to avoid shelling out for insurance.

Got new Deity Highside 50 rise 35mm (diameter) handlebars for my emtb : Giant Trance E+ Pro 1     also new Deity supracush grips (love these grips ..had old pair that needed replacing so got a new pair as a gift along with handlebars.)...  also got new brake rotors and Smith riding sunglasses as gifts.. so that is nice
[attach=1]

And then shortly after getting home my birthday gift (from myself basically) arrived from Japan,  This ARCHISS Quattro TKL with Trackpoint.. keyboard (mx-browns).
[attach=2]

messed around with it some, and figured out how to get it working properly (enable JIS format on Windows 11)... so far I like the keyboard, the layout is going to take a bit of adjustment?

Today I learned about myself that apparently I'm demisexual. Unless I've got an emotional connection to the other person, no matter hot absurdly hot and out of my league, if I don't dig them as a person there's no point to anything. This would explain how things have been lately, and all these doubts in my mind. Since I don't generally put myself out there, I'm not forming those emotional connections with other people. It's not that I'm broken, I haven't felt any attraction because I've not made any attempts to know anyone better on a personal and emotional level. I'm gonna start working on that more. Honestly the hottest thing is listening to someone go on and on about their hobby or passion and seeing how excited they get talking to someone about it. Sex is just whatever, it's not even an that enjoyable an activity to me if it's just ****ing. I'm not built for modern society.

I would say that "absurdly hot" is a visual and/or manufactured trait that is essentially fantasy. Looking at that movie star up on the screen allows you to build an imaginary scenario inside of your head where you and they are in a "relationship" and what the 2 of you might do together.

When it comes to you and someone else, both warm living breathing creatures, actually being inside of each other's personal spaces, the fantasies are dispelled and reality sets in. In my life I have lusted visually after thousands of women, but I have only been intimate with ones that I cared about.

Yeah, I'd never casually hooked up with anyone before, I learned a lot about myself and what quantifies attraction to me personally. She was SO MUCH hotter than I am, and that's what really told me that looks and horniness are not fulfilling enough for me. Wish I'd realized that 10 years ago, perhaps by now I'd be happy in a long-term thing.

Cocktail experimentation to create a delicious cocktail from this horrible rare booze I got called Batavia Arrack. It tastes absolutely awful, but I created something that actually compliments the flavors very well. Better than any recipe I've seen for using this liquor.

::Mint Turtle Arrack::
1oz Arrack
3/4 Light Rum
1/2 oz lemon juice
1/2 oz Pineapple juice
1/2 oz simple syrup
Dash ang. bitters
shake with ice
strain into glass with ice and muddled mint
fill to top with Ginger Beer

- Found adding machine.
- Fixed adding machine.

(https://i.imgur.com/4BFLLV6.jpg)

(https://i.imgur.com/5emCT6R.jpg)

It was $2 at the local thrift shop. Being a sucker for old mechanical junk, I had to have it.  At two bucks, even if it just provided a single afternoon's entertainment it was worth the investment.

For reference, it's a Sears Model 158.58010 manual adder. It's capable of adding and subtracting numbers with two decimal places of precision in a range between 0 and 9,999,999.99. Going under 0 will cause an underflow. It can also hold your current number with the 'R' key for repeating values (the '66 Sears catalog advertises this as "multiplication" which... sort of, technically), clear numbers currently in the variable register with the 'C' key, print subtotal lines with the 'S' key (prints out the current total with an 'S' next to it, retains total amount in the result register) and grand total lines with the 'T' key (prints the total with a 'T' next to it, clears the result register.)

The only documentation I could find on it were the advertisements in the 1965 and 1966 Sears catalogs:

(https://i.imgur.com/NNSjPXW.png)

(https://i.imgur.com/FSnzUSd.png)

It was the more expensive of two models at $69.65 in 1965 (about $660 adjusted).  The price was slightly dropped to $66.88 in '66. The cheaper model omitted subtraction and only operated up to 999,999.99.  The catalog number was 3 A 5801N.

Mine arrived to me with a damaged paper bail, a non-functioning paper advance, and a non-functioning ribbon advance. I fixed the ribbon advance by taking it apart, cleaning it with gun cleaner, and applying gun oil for lubrication (this is my go-to for anything mechanically complex like typewriters and adders; it seems to work well enough now that "typewriter oil" is no longer a thing.) I fixed the paper advance by applying a very thin layer of silicone gasket maker to the rubber rollers and allowing it to dry.  For good measure, I cleaned and re-lubricated the rest of the machine as well. There's nothing to be done about the paper bail, so it remains damaged.  It also appears to have originally come with a top case, which mine is missing.

To its credit nothing inside has rusted, and it all appeared to be in remarkably good shape. After a few operations, everything except the issues listed above worked great.  It seems to have been a very well built machine.  Everything inside is solid metal.

(https://i.imgur.com/FuATFDD.jpg)

(https://i.imgur.com/7enZt2s.jpg)

And of course, like everything of the era it has double shot keys:

(https://i.imgur.com/a54owpP.jpg)

It also appears to be a near internet virgin. Aside from that catalog page, it looks like this adder has only ever been mentioned one other time on the web. One was potentially listed on shopgoodwill a year ago, but the pictures don't work anymore so I can't verify that. Otherwise it seems to be a pretty rare model. It would've been the very tail end of manual adding machines for sure. They were no longer being advertised by 1967.

I wanted to quickly write it up here so there's some record of it that comes up if anyone ever googles one again.

But yeah, that's what I did today.

Edit: Fixed one detail. I assumed the adder was capable of negative numbers, but it's not.

Cleaning and prepping my desktop and gear to go to a LAN tomorrow (hosted by South East Gamers). . Hyped for this as it's been too long since I was able to go to a LAN with that group.

Same. Woke up at 5pm, ordered a pizza, currently sipping coffee and toking a bowl while watching British game shows, waiting on my pie, and petting my napping kitty in my lap.
I love Saturday's

I rode my bicycle to the pharmacy, but afterwards the cable lock did not open. The key worked, and the cylinder turned but the lock would not open, no matter how much I yanked it in different directions.

So I took the subway home, and got back to the bike with a hacksaw and some oil. The hacksaw cut through the cable like butter. I got it in two pieces in less than two minutes.
I'm a bit miffed that all these years that I have used the lock, its security has been this low.

And yes, I got lots of weird looks from people passing by.

The best protection that these locks provide is the illusion of protection. Same with masterlocks. If someone is intentionally targeting your bike of a locker than they don't do much, but they deter most people from just taking stuff because it has a lock and it would be more trouble than it's worth.

Remember, the most common way for thieves to break into peoples houses is open doors/windows and not lock picking. They want the easy way most of the time and If a house looks protected they simply won't bother.

Went to dentist, felt pain when eating with one tooth.
He found two teeth needed fixing, which he said was causing the pain.
Fixed it. Ł315.
Two days after, pain came back, exactly same, reaction to cold food....

Slept 'till 1.30 pm. Woke up and cooked some Thai basil pancakes & nam jim while sipping some local roasted French press. Took an edible, then went food shopping. Watched the newest Red Letter BotW. Tri tip fajitas for dinner, then Baldur's Gate 3 until bed time paired with a nice Islay single malt and some Granddaddy Pluto.

The day would sure be improved upon if I had someone to spend it with, but at least I know what I like and can maximize my own self indulgence.  :rolleyes:

You ever notice a period in your life where you just sat around the house for weeks on end, not really doing anything productive. Just sort of letting things accumulate, pile up, create clutter. It bothers you on some level, but not enough for you do do anything about it.
As the weeks get on, your little living bubble gets messier and messier.
Then out of nowhere you have somewhere to go, someplace people want you to be. A trip, or vacation, if you like.
Suddenly you are cleaning your home in a fervor. Tossing trash, scrubbing surfaces that never get laid upon by human eyes. You realize you have been living in filth, like an animal wallowing in Doordash bags and Amazon prime boxes for nearly a month.
It's weird. To go to such lengths to fix a problem you have been entrenched in, and the root of motivation being that you won't be there. Why did you not clean house while you were there suffering? Instead you waited until you knew you were leaving.
It's just odd how the human brain works sometimes. I'm sure this is a metaphorical microcosm of some larger realization.

Maybe not today, but few days ago, I had another surgery. Second in last 10 months.
This time it was necessary, I had a tumour in my neck that had to be removed after years. 5cm, it was hard to cut out surgeon said, but they got it out. Waiting for lab result, but should be benign.
Sitting now at home, 2 weeks off, going through my photos, watching latest True Detective... I should get back on playing games, haven't played for a while...

Let's hope so. If it had taken several years to grow to that size, it shouldn't have been aggressive, I'd think.

Yeah, hopefully it will be fine, I was told it should be ok.
Neck hurts, but I got some nice codeine tablets, so its ok.
But from person who never went to hospital, having had 2 surgeries in last 10 months I have to say.. I kinda like it? :D
Weird, but all nurses, doctors, everyone in hospitals were so nice that made this whole experience a lot easier and bearable. if you know what I mean?

****. It's malignant...

Last week I had a call from my doctor's secretary and she said that my doctor needs to move my follow-up appointment from April to this Tuesday.
I thought, ok, time slot released, so he wants to see me earlier. No worries.
So I went there today and he told me that unfortunately lab results showed its is malignant. So now I'm waiting for appointments to do MRI scans to see if there is any spread.
If there's nothing, then we would do tests every 6-12 months or so to make sure nothing shows up. But if there is something elsewhere, then we gonna start radio, chemo and other voodoo **** to kill whatever is left.
And I just booked holidays for this April and June. **** me...

Week ago I started to watch After Life - really nice show I wanted to watch for a long time. Now I feel like I'm part of it...

Before you decide on Chemo, Phinix, I want you to watch, Making Sense of Cancer with Hannah Fry (2022).

It's a short documentary on a British mathematician's perspective on Chemo and various other cancer treatments,, Chemo is not what you think it is. It does not work well across most cancers. You have to be careful of the sales pitch, and really research the statistics for your particular cancer.

Also read, the China Study, by NIH researcher Colin Campbell. Cancer propagation can be modulated on and off through veggie nutritional intervention.

Snippet- Mice implanted with cancer lesions fed milk (casein) all died, while those fed plant protein survived.  Their tumor growth is modulated up and down when they switched between the 2 protein feeds.

It's just odd how the human brain works sometimes. I'm sure this is a metaphorical microcosm of some larger realization.

Damn man, that is brutal news.

Focus on the good and love in life, and that positive influence will affect your body too. Eat well, love well, fight well, and don't let the treatment control that.

Best of vibes.

Last week I had a call from my doctor's secretary and she said that my doctor needs to move my follow-up appointment from April to this Tuesday.
I thought, ok, time slot released, so he wants to see me earlier. No worries.
So I went there today and he told me that unfortunately lab results showed its is malignant. So now I'm waiting for appointments to do MRI scans to see if there is any spread.
If there's nothing, then we would do tests every 6-12 months or so to make sure nothing shows up. But if there is something elsewhere, then we gonna start radio, chemo and other voodoo **** to kill whatever is left.
And I just booked holidays for this April and June. **** me...

Week ago I started to watch After Life - really nice show I wanted to watch for a long time. Now I feel like I'm part of it...

Before you decide on Chemo, Phinix, I want you to watch, Making Sense of Cancer with Hannah Fry (2022).

It's a short documentary on a British mathematician's perspective on Chemo and various other cancer treatments,, Chemo is not what you think it is. It does not work well across most cancers. You have to be careful of the sales pitch, and really research the statistics for your particular cancer.

Also read, the China Study, by NIH researcher Colin Campbell. Cancer propagation can be modulated on and off through veggie nutritional intervention.

Snippet- Mice implanted with cancer lesions fed milk (casein) all died, while those fed plant protein survived.  Their tumor growth is modulated up and down when they switched between the 2 protein feeds.

I guess there is never a time to be prepared for this. First day I felt pretty bad, now I feel a bit better, looked at it from different perspective.
No point to be down just now, I'll see what another tests will show, then will act.
Hoping for the best, will see what happens.

It's important phinix that you do not feel powerlessness/despair. It might seem trite coming from myself, but Tp4+Veggies is more than a gekha Meme.

Studies show, Vegan bloodwork has 700% the cancer cell killing power compared to someone eating the standard american diet. And, our blood is only 1 of the basic defenses. The veggies do a whole lot more.

Everyone has cancer cells, whether or not those cells proliferate/ grow, you have tremendous room to affect those odds.

Nutrition (food) is the LARGEST chemical interface you have with the external world.

Yeah, I've been talking a lot with my missus and we talked about how the hell that cancer grows/spreads so easily in last 20-30 years. My dad had one and died, my mum had two cancers and still alive, but unwell most of the time, my grandma had one, survived, died of age, my mother in law had one, died, my aunt had one, survived.
I think my parents' generation (born in 50s) was a group who ate all good stuff, non chemically modified, for most of their lives (living on farms, or eating food provided by organic farms etc), then in last 20 years they had loads of modified food introduced my the market, which I think had a huge influence on how those cancer cells have been "activated".
Then my generation (80s) was born in the age when that modified food was more available, I may have stared eating it at age of 10 for example. I think, may be wrong of course, but it had bigger influence on my parents, than me. On the other hand, my dad had stomache cancer at age of 53 (died 54) and I started at 43. Evolution ;)
But yes, I started to drastically reduce meat consumption in last 5 years, have to say you were one of the reasons :)
I do not eat much meat, almost none. I do take milk to coffee, reduced it a lot by not drinking it as is. I still do eat some cheese. Reduced eating eggs from maybe 5 a week to 6 a month. It is harder to get rid of those, but maybe in few years I will fully convert. Not vegan, but Vegeterian, or pestecarian (?) - I mean I would still like fish - also my favourite meat, so would be hard to get rid of...

Indeed your attempts are valorous. We have a cultural obsession with meat eating due to advertising. This is difficult to overcome being surrounded by the unhealthy norms.

I want to emphasize the urgency of your situation. If you were 30, taking it slow, ok, but we're up against the wall here, if there was ever a time to redline the veggie engine, it's now.

Do not eat fish, there's nothing good in it, especially since the ocean of today is humanity's industrial toilet.

For Every person on the planet, we're dumping 30 TONS of chemicals into the environment Every Year. X8 billion. The bio-accumulation of toxins in fish large enough for humans to eat is excessive. Farmed fish is even worse, they're basically farmed in their own fecal pool. For example ~50% of salmon is farmed, then dyed orange, they're not even that color naturally anymore. These fish have to go through a lice cleaning machine, and they use an enormous amount of cleaning chemicals and antibiotics due to sea-lice and other infections.

If you can't get the protein concept out of your mind,  Sweet potato and Yams. You can literally live on them, they are nutritionally complete.

To follow up, CT scans showed no major spreads, but then after another few weeks of waiting, my doctor had a consilium and they decided I need one more surgery. They want to go back to same area and get rid of all tissue around plus all lymph nodes, which there is like a huge network of.
So yeah, middle of June another operation and another few weeks of recovery if it goes well...
Wondering why they did not do that during first surgery, why introduce another risky time of 3 hours of surgery...
I just feel tired of all this...

Formula 1. Charles Leclerc finally won his home race in Monaco. Over the last 2 years I have really gotten into Formula 1. I went to my first race in 2014 in Monaco with a friend of mine. I was not into F1 at the time, but was very into the TV show "Archer" and after seeing the Monaco GP episode I really wanted to go see the race. I am a bigger Sainz fan than I am a Ferrari fan, but I do love me a Prancing Horse.

When we went in 2014 the tickets for Grandstand C (https://www.thef1spectator.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/monaco-c.jpg) were like $250-300 for 2 tickets. Le Mans would be next if I had to pick. That or visiting Pikes Peak and watching that would be crazy too.

I've been shaving my back and shoulder hair basically my entire life, 1-2x a week in the shower (back hair grows faster in Summer???) and today I was gonna do my same old routine, but realized there is zero point. I've been alone my entire life and never date, no one wants to **** me, and I never take my shirt off in public anyway. Who am I doing this for? What is the point? Why do anything to improve my image, really? I think I'm just going to stop all upkeep for a while and completely let myself decline, as I now truly see no logical reason to keep healthy and well-kempt. I'm going full Ted Kazinski, no more shaving, working out, watching my weight, haircuts, or planning outfits. This Summer I am going to get real gross and see if I'm happier that way.

You should still have some routine (you should maintain a healthy weight for example). But if you feel more comfortable/want to start not shaving and growing your hair out like that, then go for it. I do think you should be somewhat well-kept and still exercise. Do stuff differently but don't go on a decline. It's only gonna make things worse for you.

I agree with Rhienfo for the most part. It's fine if you forego maintaining your appearance, but you might regret letting your health decline as a result of the way you're temporarily feeling. A little extra fat might actually be good, depending on your current build. There was a girl who used to work at the Cool Stuff Inc in Winter Park who I overheard mentioning to one of her coworkers that she prefers a man with a beer belly. "More cushion for the pushin'" were her exact words. My of my female friends once told me she prefers men who are balding, so...

I started trimming my body hair with clippers a couple years ago for both appearance and general comfort (you know how gross we can get in Florida). Curiously, I've been letting my head and facial hair go wild.  :p Also curiously, my friend has realized women seem to have a strange attraction to him when he lets himself go (days without showering, no haircuts, grubby clothes, etc.). It might be pheromones or something similarly primal. So, maybe this will be good for you. I look forward to updates.

Red wine is dumb.. it makes you feel like you've been poisoned. There's nothing sophisticated about it, it's just a poorly made intoxicant. Whiskey gets the job done fast and is exceptionally pure.

Goes great with red meat. No it does not. It makes everything smell like a vinegary hospital.

she prefers a man with a beer belly. "More cushion for the pushin'" were her exact words
Once I walked into a store and the lady behind the counter said that a belly is really nice to have because it's so comfortable to lie on it. She was attractive so her opinion counts.

Iri. You are an ok guy. Tp4 apologizes for past transgressions. It is clear that the Iri is working hard to make it in the world
No better or worse than any other proletariat. Tp4 thanks the Iri for his long patronage at the gekyhack and the continuance of the forum's formated malaise.

I reckon soft bellies serve a purpose within the lexicon o' love, as do hard bodies. The girl at the game shoppe I mentioned was attractive as well, so her opinion was also relevant.

Usually guys say that is a plus for specific positions, but if she was talking about a man I'm just imagining a woman being slammed in the face with a beer belly repeatedly

wonder if it leaves an imprint like memory foam

Torturing animals


I have mixed feelings about zoos and such. Life for the prisoners is miserable, to be sure (although it is an "easy" life and they get free food and medical care).

But a single enclosure is likely to be seen by hundreds (or thousands) of people per day. That increases their awareness of the variety of creatures sharing the world with us. The big question is : Does this increase or decrease "tourism" or whatever form of invasion it is when humans take themselves into the creatures' natural habitat?

If seeing a panda in a zoo satisfies your curiosity enough to make YOU decide not to tromp into THEIR natural forest - that is a big win, and the sacrifice of the few has imporved the lives of the many.

Basically this. If you walk into a diner and can't decide between the steak and fried chicken, why not combine them? American ingenuity at it's finest (although I suspect the inventor had German roots and was trying to make a shnitzle)

Cleaned out the old movie-puter desktop cpu cooler. Phewww. Dusty.

Really liking 140mm fans.  Huge advantage in cleaning the fan blades, you can get the little vacuum brush in there, the 120mm gaps are a bit too small.

Temp dropped ~2.5 degrees from cleaning the heatsink and fan. Reduced rpm by 300.

Researching some 8K TVs, none of them have displayport. What's even the point of 8K without enough bandwidth to drive it. HDMI 2.1, 48Gbit, is only enough for 8K60hz at 8bit, but probably not since it's slightly above 48.  8K 120 needs 68gbit just to do 4:2:2, 4:4:4 requires 102.2gbit, that's more than displayport 2.1

So, basically we're stuck with yuckie DSC.

Not a good day...
Someone scratched my car, parked on a side of the street. There was a woman driving small car that got too close to my parked car in front of the shop and scratched it badly.
Now I was away shopping, came back 3 minutes after the incident. I managed to find a shop with CCTV, watched the footage - that woman hit and scratched my car, drove away 10 meters, got off the car, walked around her own and fixed the side mirror she hit it with and got back in her car and ran away... I've sent the footage to insurance company, problem is footage doesnt show properly the reg plates, low resolution... :(

It’s by design. We have the ability to put 4k@60hz security camera in, but choose not to. Why? I assume it’s for insurance reasons. Insurance will pay out more than whatever was taken. Banks never seem to know how much a robber takes, but we are to believe the bank has cash on hand that isn’t 100% accounted for? I think they purposefully put in bad cameras to meet insurance minimums not for actual protection.

They have by far the most attractive customer base of any grocery store, and my local one is right next to a gym, so you get beautiful people coming in wearing their workout stuff. Plus an apartment a block away has a bunch of OnlyFans models living in it. High concentration of pretty, fit, and skimpy dressed women around. Summer and Halloween are crazy around the shopping center close to me.

UGhhhhhh..

Capacitors cost $6 each x2 + $8 shipping.  $22 after tax.

Damn you mouser.com, damn you to hell.

The only other caps Tp4 have on hand are 50v 22000uf. Just way too large, prolly stress the rectifier, and hard to get into place.  Soldered them in with wires temporarily, sub works gud', can confirm the old caps are bad.

The $22 is giving Tp4 Chest pains.

They're here, Nichicon LGY. they're made in malaysia, but Tp4 just can't trust no taiwan capacitors, not after the plague.

105c rated. and 6800uf. vs the 85c 4700uf.

Thought about getting 10,000, buhhhh, doesn't seem worth it for an 8" small sub.

Oh yes, back to the roots - it was an alien movie that we needed after first two parts. Anything after that wasn't as good. I was surprised, cause did not expect it to be that good. It was fantastic, phenomenal etc, but it was very good indeed.
I think I'll watch it again at home, when 4K version comes out.

There should be giant blenders in every major town, so if anyone wants to kill themselves they can just go to the local blender and jump in and become mulch.
I think this would solve a lot of problems.

Oooft! I'm guessing those side bars are static, so yeah...
But to be honest, burn-in may happen after many years of displaying static bits. Those OLED panels nowadays are pretty good with those aids installed.
I have my 48CX for 3-4 years now and still nothing. I do hide windows bar, dont keep it on for long without movement etc but so far I think its around 7K hours and still nothing.

A hot slut dignified woman at the grocery store today was wearing just a transparent shirt and no bottoms, and I saw her hoohaa and boobs. I heard a guy comment to his gf/wife 'Why don't you dress like that?'
Highlight of my week, which is sad.

Agreed. Customer attrictiveness way higher than the competition. Lots of yoga pants in the Winter Park locale. And the Fresh Market down the street isn't bad either.

"Industrial slaughter has already turned administered killing into a purely technical act. But the absurdity of its profitability calculations comes to the fore when animals are slaughtered for nothing: so that we don't eat animals that may or may not be affected by a disease such as epizooty, untreated but slaughtered for the "lowest cost", and even if the disease is not transmissible to humans, such as foot-and-mouth disease. This productivist, technical and mercantile civilization, (...) oblivious to the amphibology of the word 'culture', oblivious to the living being that is the animal, could only make possible, if not necessary, these bloody exhibitions." – Elisabeth de Fontenay, Sans offenser le genre humain.

Yesterday I got my newest Alps purchase in the mail. I have a lot to document and share here, but long story short head over to eBay and search "Kansasfest". You are looking for "Kansasfest July 2022: Apple II "Alps Grand Variety Keyboard" $55.55 + S/H"

The seller is a truly passionate person. I was looking for decently priced Alps keyboards to bolster the collection when I found this. I was drawn in with the full description of the listing. Which lead me to his Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQBED-TfBuY) video.

A lot of fun listening to the user. Even shouts out Chyrosran22 as the leading voice in Alps keyboards. The keynote is really about the Alps blue, but covers clones, non-SKCM/SKCL switches, etc. If you have any interest in Alps I encourage you to check out the video. Not only did I receive the keyboard in the listing, but a stack of documents to go along with the keyboard, among other fun things. I hope the other remaining keyboard/keyswitch tester goes to another enthusiast.

To summarize: well worth the price, very interesting seller, and SKCM brown my be my favorite switch. The hunt is on.

Well, I was issued a Windows 10 based laptop at work for new safety the problem is I hate typing on touch screens larger than my phone. The keyboard they have me is a cheap chiclet style low profile rubber don't that feels like garbage. So, I built a small work station on the inside of the door for my tools box. Using a JD40 and a GH36. The GH36 has mouse controls so no mouse needed.

Spotted an SR71-Blackbird flying above my neighborhood. I'm about 96% sure that's what it was, they are huge and they have an extremely distinctive shape that looks like no other plane on the planet. But I was under the impression they were all decommissioned. Maybe it was doing a fly over for some event going on near by? Or Lockheed is testing an unmanned flight over the area?
And just like always I got caught up in the moment and forgot to pull out my phone for a video  :blank:

I wonder that it might have been a B-1 with its wings folded back.

The SR-71 is indeed like no other, but it is an antiquated design (and less than half the length of a 747).

And yes, NZ may be the best option.

3rd day of trying to train my left hand to be my mouse hand due to my ongoing, and I am sure now, lifelong shoulder injury that will never get better.
Much better control than day1, but not much improvement over day2. My accuracy is so bad, I've closed windows I'm using, skipped around in movies and shows, clicked cancel on emails instead of send. Very annoying.

It's usually a combination of The injury + Rheumatism + poor circulation.

Factors made worse by a diet focused on diseased Animal Corpses.
