daftykins | hmm think i should have kept the foil wrap and touched it to the casing, that might solve the noise | 00:12 |

penguin42 | careful, there tend to be multiple ideas of earth, that you should keep separate ish | 00:44 |
penguin42 | so you might have an analog earth that the audio is referenced against that might be very separate from mains earth | 00:45 |
daftykins | yeah there were two wires for ground but i connected those fine, i put the multimeter on the connector 'can' and to the foil which wrapped around several of the wires in the centre and that had continuity | 00:46 |
daftykins | weirdly the thing has -18v, +18v and +8v going to it | 00:47 |
penguin42 | I think +/- is pretty common for amps | 00:50 |
daftykins | best part of the kit connector, popping it back open to make a change :D | 01:02 |
penguin42 | hmm upgraded desktop to f37 and it's correctly pointing out one of my machines has a short ssh key | 01:09 |
daftykins | is that release beta atm? | 01:10 |
penguin42 | nod | 01:10 |
penguin42 | right, with that done, I think time for bed | 01:15 |
daftykins | ttfn :) | 01:15 |
davef | That was fun. I have just completed Return to Monkey Island. | 17:19 |
davef | It's Monkey Island like the early days | 17:20 |
zxmpi | that was quick | 17:20 |
davef | I've not had much to do this weekend. About 8hrs total. | 17:24 |
davef | My only complaint is that some of the puzzles were way too easy. | 17:24 |
daftykins | i wonder if they're trying to make it more accessible, since such games were (probably) notorious for difficulty back in the day? | 17:56 |
davef | daftykins: I think so. Some of the puzzles I got the answer right away, others I only had to think for a few mins. | 20:11 |
davef | Back in MI1 and 2, I could spend upwards of 30 mins just figuring out one puzzle | 20:11 |
davef | But then again, it could be because I'm a seasoned Monkey Island player, I kinda knew how these things work. I dunno. :) | 20:12 |
daftykins | :D | 20:12 |
daftykins | yeah you might already be in the mindset of the puzzle writer | 20:12 |
daftykins | assuming they kept the same person for the modern one | 20:18 |
davef | R2MI was Ron Gilbert, same dude who created the first two games :) | 20:22 |
daftykins | ah so he does a huge portion, writing, puzzles, more, etc? | 20:22 |
davef | He was director, as well as a designer and writer | 20:23 |
