diddledanwe had a bus do it locally a couple months ago14:59
diddledanhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-3642888114:59
DJonesYeah, we've got a stobarts/tesco distribution centre nearby, & this happens around once a month, plus major diversions & construction work for the new merseygateway bridge changing every few days15:01
DJonesNot just stobarts to be fair15:01
diddledanthis is clickbait: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-3700932415:07
* DJones doesn't click15:08
diddledanpeople should be allowed to wear wth they want IMO15:08
* diddledan baits DJones15:08
* DJones passes diddledan to Brian May for baiting15:08
diddledanbetter Brian than Theresa15:09
DJonesOh I don't know, he's quite ranty in anything involving baiting, specially bears & badgers15:10
TwistedLucidityWould you rather repeatedly dive on to sand with expose skin, or with a protective barrier?15:14
dwatkinsby barrier do you mean something like sunscreen, or a large metal sign?15:56

daftykinsdiddledan: back on yonder desktop today?18:54
diddledanyup18:54
daftykins\o/18:54
daftykinsmy capacitors arrived already!18:55
daftykinsnext day from Devon = wow18:55
diddledannice18:55
diddledanhow badly are you going to solder them in place?18:55
daftykinstime for a curry first though i think :) been out taking data off an old vista laptop, ugh18:55
daftykinswell it's gonna be my first attempt sooo...18:56
daftykinshttp://imgur.com/a/halRm21:48
daftykinssecond try!21:49
zmoylan-piremember the motto of the usb design team... 3rd time lucky... :-)22:13
daftykinsXD22:16
daftykinsi'm really pleased with that, i've just swapped 9 caps total22:17
daftykinsthere are 3 more i could do, of the same type, but they're intact right now22:17
zmoylan-piif it ain't broken...22:17
daftykinser 4 i mean22:17
daftykinsindeed! though i think the board zapped the RAM last time when the caps went22:17
daftykinsyay for learning to solder \o/22:18
daftykinshttps://www.dropbox.com/s/15xc3u2s7ij93kq/IMG_20160809_224752.jpg?dl=022:18
daftykinsthere are the rears of 3 i did22:18
zmoylan-pinot too shabby22:18
daftykinsta ^_^22:18
daftykinssometimes i felt i could drag back down solder that had clung to the cap legs from the hole, instead of think about putting any down22:19
daftykinsi don't have any tools to test my work mind you, or know how to test...22:19
zmoylan-pican't you test caps with a multimeter?22:20
* zmoylan-pi goes to check... http://www.electricaltechnology.org/2013/06/how-to-check-capacitor-with-digital.html22:22
daftykinsto my eternal shame i still don't own one22:23
daftykinsbut i was more thinking the fitting to the board22:23
zmoylan-pispotted cheap one in lidl today...22:23
daftykinsanother amazon venture for the future methinks ;)22:24
zmoylan-pii have one rattling around here... used to use it for checking network cables (first co ax then cat 5) till i got a cat 5 cable tester22:25
daftykins=]22:25
zmoylan-piand serial/parallel cables of course...22:25
daftykinshow fancy did you go? i have a cheap 9v battery one that just sends power down and beeps22:26
zmoylan-piall i wanted at the time was one that audible tone for when a cable was making a circuit so i didn't have to glance from the probe leads to the read out... heard a tone... it was ok...22:26
zmoylan-pii think iirc i got it in maplins for ~ir£2022:27
zmoylan-pior it might have been peats the irish long gone equivalent store now i think of it... i used to get a lot of cables from them too which were cheap but iffy22:28
daftykinssounds like mine22:28
zmoylan-pii was first introduced to a multimeter when i got a 20' parallel cable made... it was marginal and would work with some pcs printers and not others... 12' was the longest reliable lenght you could get easily iirc22:29
daftykinsit LIVES!23:13
daftykinshttp://imgur.com/a/halRm23:13
zmoylan-pithis is were a foot pedal under the desk for thunder and lightning effects would really pay off and you'll have to spend time working on your evil cackle23:16
daftykins:>23:16
zmoylan-piand a huge double knife switch on the wall for adding power to the pc would be a neat trick... :-)23:17
zmoylan-pihmmm, a rasp pi doing voice recog looking for key phrases to then play mp3s against... 400 quatloos on the newcomers... ::cue star trek fighting music:: ...23:21
daftykins:>23:23
daftykinsi wish i knew why my pi3 has issues with the onkyo AVR of mine23:23
daftykinsooh i should go and check that thread23:23
