[04:19:15] <systemd> ^ 03Electric utilities brace for surge in power demand from data centres
[07:25:19] <Ingar> Windows already has ads in the start menu
[07:25:25] <Ingar> Install Office NOW!
[07:27:53] <Ingar> oh, and did you install Edge yet :-)
[08:37:37] <chromas> Sure but those are first-party ads. Now they're advertising other people's software too
[08:38:09] <chromas> hm, I wonder if some well-off troll could get them to promote Linux :D
[08:38:27] <janrinok> worth a try.... I can chip in a few bucks.
[08:43:54] <chromas> I forgot to unwind the plastic filament from one of the storage holes on the spool. Printer doesn't care. It just yanked off a piece and kept going
[08:45:04] <janrinok> sounds like a powerful motor you have there. What are/were you building?
[08:46:05] <chromas> I don't know if there's a name, but little tee-like things that slide over a pipe that hold perpendicular pipes to make a yagi antenna
[08:47:07] <chromas> Hopefully I can just stuff the end of the plastic into the extruder hole when the other piece goes inside and have it keep going
[08:49:08] <Ingar> what printer are you using ?
[08:49:28] <janrinok> understood - I have made many yagis over the years but of course most elements do not have to be insulated/isolated so I just use simple fittings.
[08:51:15] <chromas> overengineering is half the fun
[08:51:37] <chromas> it's an ender 3v2 with a different extruder
[08:52:43] <Ingar> I'd love to ha e a printer so I can just "print stuff" but tbh, I'm not really interested delving into the wonderfull world of 3d printing
[08:55:18] <janrinok> time for my French lesson - back in a hour
[08:57:13] <chromas> yeah; hobbies are timesinks
[08:57:45] <Ingar> yeah, I'm rather interested in it as a tool than a hobby
[08:57:58] <Ingar> as a tool for other timesink hobbies :D
[08:59:05] <chromas> 3d-print some camera mounts for your telescopes :D
[09:00:32] <Ingar> there are plenty of telescope-related parts you can print
[09:00:40] <Ingar> or you can print a telescope
[09:04:47] <chromas> oooh
[09:05:18] <chromas> yeah make my own cheapo parts so I can spend most of the budget on better mirrors
[09:11:02] <chromas> there's a guy who made a keyboard out of 3d-printed parts, including the switches. Instead of springs and stuff it has tiny magnets, which also add the tactile click

[09:12:24] <systemd> ^ 03GitHub - riskable/void_switch: 3D printable magnetic separation contactless key switch and stabilizers (OpenSCAD files)

[21:13:24] <AlwaysNever2> hello there!
[21:13:44] <AlwaysNever2> this time I'm on irssi on Solaris 9
[21:14:01] -!- NotSanguine [NotSanguine!~Thunderbi@0981-5388-2988-025h-w42v-wzxg-80q5-5240.res9.spectrum.com] has joined #soylent
[21:14:02] <AlwaysNever2> Will a + accent work? -->
[21:14:07] <AlwaysNever2> it works!
[21:14:18] <AlwaysNever2> Cedilla -->
[21:14:32] <AlwaysNever2> Enne -->
[21:14:39] <AlwaysNever2> success.
[21:16:03] <AlwaysNever2> it's amazing the amount of depencies irssi has, compared to ircII, which was content with just libiconv

[21:19:21] <AlwaysNever2> this is Solaris 9 x86 running on a Centrino laptop, HP Compaq nc6000
[21:19:39] <ted-ious> Oh!
[21:21:22] <AlwaysNever2> the beauty of Solaris 9 is that it is frozen, it will not change, it is what it is, and it is plenty enough, also it has the classic init instead of SMF
