[09:49] <davmor2> JamesTait: that do you :)
[09:49] <JamesTait> davmor2, the internet is made of cats - you're spoiled for choice. 😉
[09:50] <davmor2> JamesTait: it's true I just went for the obvious ones with the evanescence twist
[09:51] <JamesTait> https://youtu.be/zi8VTeDHjcM for completeness.
[10:33] <daftykins> morning all
[10:34] <davmor2> daftykins: morning

[10:35] <daftykins> i'm not entirely convinced i'm not damaged my iron with the way it's gone brown :P
[10:35] <daftykins> er *damaging
[10:38] <slick> My wife has had an iron that is brown the whole time I have known her. Since 1996.
[10:38] <daftykins> soldering or of the clothing variety? :)
[10:38] <slick> good point. clothing.
[10:39] <slick> ha! point!
[10:39] <daftykins> ah i'm told it's normal
[10:40] <zmoylan-pi> i think all irons have plastic components that turn brown from heat... probably trying to poke ocr people to buy new irons
[10:40] <slick> I would not be surprised if she did have a soldering iron. Once I told her I thought my alternator was bad in my car and she put in a new one, on the side of the road. She is very handy.
[10:42] <daftykins> still puzzled at the concept of putting solder on to take items off :)
[11:22] <MooDoo> howdy all
[11:22] <Seeker`> heya
[11:33] <daftykins> aww look what you did!
[11:33] <daftykins> ;]
[11:54] <daftykins> yay all the bad caps desoldered :D

[11:54] <davmor2> daftykins: chainsaw is faster
[11:55] <zmoylan-pi> daftykins... with a chainsaw... that's darwin material right there... :-P
[11:56] <davmor2> zmoylan-pi: shhhhh
[11:57] <davmor2> zmoylan-pi: he might be able to read
[11:57] <davmor2> daftykins: it'll be fine don't worry :)
[12:00] <daftykins> :D
[12:00]  * daftykins revs said chainsaw
[12:00] <daftykins> 8D
[12:01] <davmor2> It's only a flesh wound! Come back here and I'll bite your capacitors off
[12:01]  * zmoylan-pi fires up video app on phone and gets out towel to wipe off blood...
[12:24] <diddledan> I wondered at the weekend over whether it would be appropriate for me to admit that I handled my dad's chopper
[12:25] <diddledan> I was also coerced into trimming my parents' bushes as a kit
[12:25] <diddledan> kid*
[12:26] <daftykins> my my, you ought to be locked up
[12:29] <daftykins> http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/820UF-6-3V-105c-LOW-ESR-8mmx11-5mm-Long-Life-Rubycon-6-3ZLH820MEFC8X11-5-x10pcs-/300494581145
[12:29] <daftykins> looks like what i'm after, even i recognise the rubycon name too, so perhaps that's a good choice
[12:29] <daftykins> plus the guys in Devon!
[12:35] <daftykins> £4.65 delivered :)
[14:49] <diddledan> daftykins: memory test is running
[14:49] <daftykins> \o/
[14:50] <daftykins> did you say your new build is all ECC stuffs?
[15:13] <diddledan> nope that was a different pc with the rcc rams
[15:13] <diddledan> it's using my old amd bulldozer
[15:13] <diddledan> 50% tested, and ok so far
[15:14] <zmoylan-pi> it's always the last ram stick... :-)
[15:14] <diddledan> lol
[15:14] <diddledan> zmoylan-pi: hush you
[15:14]  * diddledan shoves fingers in his ears and yells out "I'M NOT LISTENING LA LA LA LA"
[15:15] <diddledan> the question, is whose fingers did I just shove in my ears?
[15:17] <daftykins> :D
[15:18] <daftykins> i have an odd one with one of my core 2 quads, it's running prime95 upstairs right now - overnight it failed on one core after 5.5 hours
[15:18] <diddledan> oof
[15:18] <diddledan> sucky nuts
[15:18]  * diddledan wanders-off in search of icey cream
[15:19] <daftykins> it's running again right now just fine though, but small FFTs all fit on-CPU i think
[15:21] <diddledan> just Juan Cornetto!
[15:22] <zmoylan-pi> last of the choc ices here, get them while they're hot
[15:22] <diddledan> err
[15:22] <diddledan> they're not supposed to be hot, yaknow
[15:22] <daftykins> that's one puddle for me, please
[15:23] <zmoylan-pi> hot as in popular of course
[15:24] <daftykins> nothing worse than a fully melted chocolate bar
[15:24] <diddledan> :-(
[15:24] <zmoylan-pi> banana sandwiches a few days old... but you drink them anyway... :-D
[15:25] <daftykins> when you reach for the packet and you feel that lack of resistance at the surface - you know you're gonna have a bad time
[15:25] <daftykins> zmoylan-pi: *shudder*
[15:26] <diddledan> I wonder how many plugs behind my monitors are actually powering something?
[15:27] <diddledan> I've got somewhere around 2 dozen back there
[15:27] <daftykins> heh i had quite a check of all that when i built the new PC
[15:27] <zmoylan-pi> and 1 laptop... :-)
[15:27] <daftykins> i've still got issues with my pi3 occasionally crackling over the HDMI audio or even stopping briefly here and there btw, need to get in touch with the dev
[15:55] <diddledan> wtf did I just watch?! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2sF6-UpsxTo
[15:56] <daftykins> i have no idea but i'm not joining you :D
[15:56] <daftykins> *closed*
[15:56] <diddledan> awww :-(
[15:57] <daftykins> smelled a bit too jesus botherer, couldn't even tell if it was in parody!
[15:57] <davmor2> diddledan: in future just stick to cat videos it'll be safer for you
[15:59] <daftykins> +1
[15:59] <daftykins> gah that machine crapped out again, could be CPU or PSU maybe
[16:05] <diddledan> hmm
[16:07] <daftykins> ah well, doesn't need to be prime stable :P
[16:07] <daftykins> not if i keep it!
[16:28] <diddledan> how dirty should I feel for actually thinking Win10 isn't bad
[16:28] <diddledan> ?
[16:29] <daftykins> not at all
[16:29] <daftykins> i think it's a great upgrade from 7, the consistency is finally coming together
[16:29] <daftykins> bit embarassed whilst at my folks that i totally forgot to do the upgrades on theirs XD
[16:30] <diddledan> lol
[16:31] <diddledan> was that the initial 7-to-10 or the anniversary update-to-10?
[16:31] <daftykins> 7 to 10 yeah, i never did theirs before the deadline end
[16:31] <diddledan> oops
[16:32] <daftykins> when i fired up their desktop to sort the dreaded inkjet printer though, they'd not installed updates since May - so they don't get used much
[16:32] <daftykins> there are those articles talking about pretending to be in need of the accessibility version to still get it free, but that's a bit cheeky in my book
[16:33] <diddledan> yeah, that's evil doing that if you don't need accessibility bits
[16:33] <daftykins> but then they are fogeys so i'm sure they'll be after the magnifying glass soon enough ;)
[16:34] <daftykins> muggins here got the delight of unclogging the black ink cartridge in an Epson XP-4xx
[16:34] <zmoylan-pi> that's why the big swiss army knives have a pin in the handle... to unblock tiny holes... :-)
[16:36] <daftykins> they didn't even seem to be quite like that in their design, i put some window cleaner and distilled water on a piece of kitchen towel and folded it up under the printhead track... before swiping it left and right to settle on there under the black, one more printhead clean operation and it started flowing again
[17:09]  * daftykins enables logging on his pi and watches for evidence
[17:10] <diddledan> :-o evidence!
[17:17] <daftykins> ok nothing there, so it must be on the HDMI link
[17:18] <daftykins> lets disable HDMI CEC for a test
[17:40] <daftykins> nope still fudged, time to talk to the dev!
[17:40] <daftykins> perhaps they're only viable with the DAC add-ons
[17:42] <diddledan> your daily awww: http://i.imgur.com/92iX6.jpg
[17:45] <daftykins> "jesus, i... i installed arch"
[17:45] <daftykins> "it's ok, it'll all be over..." *asteroid*
[17:49] <diddledan> lol
[17:50] <diddledan> daftykins: you mean "it'll all be over before you've got it running properly"
[17:50] <daftykins> that's a given though right? :)
[17:50] <diddledan> the Gentoo equiv is "it'll all be over before you've compiled it"
[17:50] <daftykins> how's the memtest btw?
[17:50] <diddledan> done
[17:50] <diddledan> it is fine
[17:50] <daftykins> yaaaay
[17:50] <daftykins> an ivybridge build i did for a mate a couple of years back had the RAM go bad within a couple of weeks, i text him how to memtest and we did the RMA remotely (since i'd ordered down to here)
[17:51] <daftykins> super simples
[19:31] <Laney> whhhhhhhhy is my port forwarding not working
[19:31] <Laney> WAIT
[19:31] <Laney> bet my IP changed
[19:32] <daftykins> but you have a dynamic DNS hostname, right?
[19:32] <daftykins> or if you meant internal IP, that'd only happen if you used something really daft like DHCP reservation, right? :D
[19:33] <Laney> "dynamic"
[19:33] <Laney> it's a subdomain that I update whenever this kind of thing happens
[19:33] <Laney> and then forget about 2 years later when it happens again
[19:33] <daftykins> wow that's a flawed setup
[19:33] <Laney> and whinge on irc
[19:34] <Laney> and then fix it
[19:34] <Laney> repeat
[19:34] <daftykins> my registrar lets you have a client to update dynamic hosts \o/
[19:34] <Laney> not flawed enough for me to put any effort into fixing it
[19:34] <daftykins> do it for us, Laney!
[19:35] <Laney> just slap me the next time I moan about it
[19:35] <daftykins> but that could be years!
[19:35] <daftykins> just err... tell me your ISP and i'll switch you to a daily renewal :)
[19:36] <Laney> it's that xkcd thing
[19:36] <Laney> time saved vs time spent
[19:37] <Laney> although the impact of it today was that I couldn't connect to my desktop while I was working at the library
[19:37] <Laney> which was actually quite irritating
[19:37] <daftykins> i don't think it's that much work at all
[19:38] <daftykins> it is if you try to get a dynamic DNS updater working on Linux mind you, they're _awful_
[19:38] <Laney> I think dd-wrt actually has something like this
[19:39] <daftykins> yeah most routers to have built-in updaters but they tend to be pretty limited in scope
[19:39] <daftykins> s/to/do/
[19:39]  * Laney turns to goop
[19:39]  * Laney slides away
[19:40] <Laney> </alex mack>
[20:34] <diddledan> grr @ getting older. I've started regularly mis-drinking and ending up in a coughing fit
[20:36] <daftykins> drinking o0
[20:36] <daftykins> ah like choking yourself
[20:36] <daftykins> :D
[20:38] <diddledan> yeah, drinking wrong
[20:39] <diddledan> you'd think I'd have mastered it by now
[20:39] <diddledan> turns out I'm a moron
[20:39] <daftykins> i find myself moving around and going off balance at times, even on the flat :(
[20:39] <daftykins> but then i blame it all on my little head braking manoeuvre
[20:40] <diddledan> well at least you stopped yourself
[20:40] <diddledan> would be terrible if you carried-on moving
[20:40] <daftykins> that's true, i could've landed on Mars
[20:40] <diddledan> zacly
[20:42] <diddledan> is 4.7 already out now? http://betanews.com/2016/08/07/linux-microsoft-surface-3/
[20:43] <diddledan> that url talks of 4.8 RC1 being touted, but I thought they were still working on 4.7!
[20:44] <daftykins> kernel.org seems to suggest 4.7 is stable
[20:46] <diddledan> aah, I must have read the release of 4.7 as a prerelease
[20:59] <daftykins> hmm someone is suggesting my Onkyo AVR and the Pis are incompatible :P
[21:01] <diddledan> wha?
[21:01] <daftykins> http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?105018-Announce-piCorePlayer-2-00/page139
[21:02] <daftykins> this is why i don't like forums, i laid it out all carefully - "let me just guess what you have there"
[21:04] <diddledan> nice bit of fuzz there - some bands go out of their way to achieve that effect
[21:05] <daftykins> :>
[21:05] <daftykins> that was before the boost option i mention, but it still blanks out like that a lot which for a music player role, is very offputting
[21:05] <daftykins> now i know i could buy a DAC addon for the Pi but that doubles your per-node price
[21:06] <diddledan> I like the "I have an onkyo" .. "do you have an onkyo?"
[21:06] <diddledan> talk about missing the bleeding obvious
[21:07] <daftykins> yeah like reading the thread :(
[21:07] <daftykins> *post
[21:07] <diddledan> hell of a reply to your obvious statement of "I have an onkyo"
[21:08] <diddledan> (paraphrase)
[21:08] <daftykins> :D
[21:09] <diddledan> what's the music, anyway? :-p
[21:18] <daftykins> diddledan: that i think: http://lematos.bandcamp.com
[21:19] <daftykins> maybe not necessarily that album, but yeah
[22:41] <daftykins> wag114: bounce bounce bounce!
