[00:04:50] <pinchy> its time for an altersoylent.org to complement alterslash.org
[00:05:10] <pinchy> better get on it jonathan

[00:05:31] <upstart> ^ 03Welcome to the World of Tomorrow... Today! - SoylentNews
[00:05:43] <Bytram> 'zactly 4 years ago... today!
[00:33:38] <Deucalion> Ellenor, fuck??? Not sure if request for or exclamation or exasperated sigh.
[00:34:06] <Ellenor> Deucalion: abmout the iOS bug
[00:37:09] <Deucalion> I've lost the will to be surprised by or emit expletives about such things. I'm going to go live in a cave..... it's all fucked and we can't have nice things. Not that we ever did... we were just given false hope.
[00:37:33] * chromas adds Unicode support to Deucalion's cave
[00:39:02] <chromas> Free Dungeons 2 on gog
[00:39:30] <Deucalion> Fuck meeeee!!! Can't even escape the graffiti artists in the middle of nowhereistan.

[00:39:35] <upstart> ^ 03Dignity of risk - Wikipedia
[00:40:43] <Deucalion> An interesting choice of link Ellenor... but why?
[00:44:16] <boru> The Dungeons games are pretty fun.
[00:44:25] <boru> Reminds me of the DK series.
[00:44:42] <chromas> Donkey Kong (Country) ;)
[00:44:48] <boru> No, you bellend.
[00:44:53] <boru> Dungeon Keeper.
[00:47:08] <boru> I came up with a grand and wonderful algorithm to classify stellar geometry for blind plate solving today.
[00:47:37] <boru> I've been considering a patent to ensure it stays free.
[00:48:20] <boru> Based on photometric and spatial attributes.
[00:48:23] <chromas> [Alanis Morrssette plays in the distance]
[00:48:52] <boru> There is no irony there. I'd patent it to make sure no one makes money from it.
[00:57:21] * Deucalion reads what boru said about blind plate solving.. blinks... reads again.... nope.. word soup still. Are there sighted and blind plates? And what are they trying to solve? And who is Stella? - I feel I may be losing my mantal favulties due to sonic atttack whilst in Cuba. Or just maybe I was always this dumb and am now undergoing some self-realisation epiphany. Either way... keep up the good work....
[01:00:20] <chromas> Looks like it's related to finding where your telescope is pointed by matching patterns in the image
[01:01:37] * chromas pretends he knows what he's talking about
[01:12:51] * Deucalion wonders if chromeass is omniscient and if he ever sleeps.
[01:13:30] * chromas is a shitpost bot with a questionable data set
[01:14:03] <Deucalion> AKA Human.
[01:14:15] <chromas> Damn! He knows!
[01:16:49] * Deucalion dumps working memory and starts emergency delete procedure,,,, thermite charges are heard fizzing.... it's only a matter of time now until my power is gone. Goodbye cruel world. I tried.
[01:17:20] * chromas pilfer's Deucalion's cave
[01:17:25] <pinchy> muh shitpots
[01:17:49] <pinchy> u ready to make 800$ tonight?

[01:21:39] <Sulla> God damnit I accidently bought canadian "whisky"
[01:21:55] <Sulla> I saw "pendleton' and " rye" and bought it, recalled liking it
[01:22:08] <Sulla> Got to the car and realized it was templeton I was looking for
[01:23:11] <chromas> Now you must drink in shame.
[01:23:53] <pinchy> i think bourbon is actually a substitute for epicac

[02:39:42] <chromas> Recursion is awesome.
[02:39:59] <chromas> Next he needs to microwave a microwave microwaving a microwave.
[02:40:12] <Subsentient> chromas: I agree.
[02:40:42] <Subsentient> chromas: I wonder what happens if you take two identical microwaves, remove the doors, aim them at each other, and turn them on
[02:40:52] <Subsentient> I mean, nothing good obviously
[02:40:54] <Subsentient> but I bet it'd be funny
[02:41:22] <Subsentient> I've microwaved stuff I shouldn't have in my microwaves too.
[02:41:27] <Subsentient> Just for shits and giggles
[02:41:39] <Subsentient> CDs, lightbulbs, mousetraps, all sorts of stuff
[02:41:45] <chromas> The power'd go out because your wiring isn't rated for that much wattage
[02:42:24] <chromas> Well did you make videos and post 'em on youtube?
[02:42:31] <chromas> You could be raking in the cashes!
[02:42:35] <Subsentient> On my bucket list is making a microwave pulse weapon out of a magnetron, an AVR chip, and some huge capacitors.

[22:42:29] <Sulla> Took apart that tv for its components, any ideas on how to use the led strips?
[22:42:43] <chromas> Paging Dr Khyber
[22:43:10] <chromas> Would you just stuff a few volts into 'em?
[22:43:51] <Sulla> I am no electrician guy
[22:44:12] <chromas> I am no guy, buddy
[22:44:48] <Sulla> I am no "electrician guy", pal
[22:45:22] <Sulla> Can I just hook em up to a 9 volt or will I die?
[22:46:09] <chromas> Is that internal backlight LEDs or ones that light the wall behind the tv?
[22:46:28] <Sulla> Inernal backlight
[22:46:50] <Sulla> Can I put green film over them and line my trucks inside? Become supersonic electronic
[22:47:40] <chromas> Yeah but you should put a strip of LCDs over them so you can make a marquee
[22:48:31] <chromas> If you can't find specs you could at least start with a couple volts and add moar 'til you get light
[22:48:43] <Sulla> Okay
[22:51:37] <chromas> https://www.technibble.com
[22:51:38] <upstart> ^ 03GUIDE: How to Test and Use an LCD's LED backlights | Technibble Forums
[22:52:31] <chromas> So I guess the ones this guy has takes 12v
[22:57:53] <Sulla> All I can find is a double a and it doesnt do nuffin
[22:59:05] <Sulla> Was pretty impressed that I found aligator clips though
[22:59:51] <Sulla> Wonder what I can use these plastic sheets inside the tv for
[23:01:05] <Sulla> Fug, my kid had to hit this hard for it to crack
[23:01:16] <Sulla> Hitting it with stuff to see its limits
[23:01:36] <Sulla> Nvm just hitting with hands doesnt do much
[23:01:46] <Sulla> Screwdriver handle at slow speeds is quite effective
[23:02:14] <chromas> Take the LCD part out, put the backlight sheets back in and use it as a nifty dark lamp
[23:02:40] <chromas> Or put your x-rays on it
[23:02:51] <Sulla> Hah
[23:03:29] <Sulla> Have my grandpas lymphoma xrays from back in the 90s, could be interesting
[23:04:25] <chromas> You could also use it as a light table for setting up slideshows
[23:05:24] <Sulla> Can I just crack screen apart and throw in trash or there hazardes stuff in there?
[23:06:09] <chromas> I think standard electronics restrictions apply
[23:06:27] <chromas> Should be taken to recycler but no-one will notice if you slip it into the trash ;)
[23:24:53] <Sulla> Am able to bandsaw all of the plastic small enough to fit in trash and I found an ewaste place that will take the screen
