15:12 rue_mohr maybe, but if not atleast I'll get a ticket
15:13 Tom_itx that's all it takes anymore... a piece of paper that says so
16:05 katsmeow-afk http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/hardtalk/9721923.stm
16:14 katsmeow-afk that was about the 1960's, what i learned in the 1970's and 80's in engineering environments: men were in charge, and if you sounded like their wife or daughter, you got shit on to pressure you to quit ; if you acted like the wife or daughter, you got fired ; if you were a boss's hooker, you got a few perks until you got pregnant, and then you got fired
16:14 katsmeow-afk as mysogynistic as they were, and may still be, it's a damned wonder any got married or have hetero sex at all
16:20 katsmeow-afk women were "encouraged" to wear skirts, and there was a rule that when a woman climbed a ladder there must be a man there looking up to catch here if she fell, and there were usually several men looking up to "ensure safety" ,,,, there was no such rule if a man climbed a ladder
16:22 katsmeow-afk oh, and married women were almost never ever promoted
16:24 katsmeow-afk about 1/3 the eligibility for promoting a man was how many female employees he bedded, and about 1/3 was his rank in the local klan
16:25 katsmeow-afk this led to the odd situation where the KKK was promoting lesbians to top positions
19:35 tsmeow-afk hm
19:55 zhanx katsmeow-afk: see me new truck?
19:59 katsmeow-afk no, didn't

20:00 katsmeow-afk still waiting on IE to open
20:01 anx wants to give kat a linu
20:03 katsmeow-afk it's just the harddrives are really busy atm
20:04 katsmeow-afk ah, shiney deep blue shortbed.. why a shortbed? you can't sleep in it!
20:04 katsmeow-afk get rue to build you a ladder rack to sleep on :-)
20:06 zhanx if i put the tail gate down its fine
20:06 katsmeow-afk ok
20:06 zhanx going out camping this weekend with it
20:06 katsmeow-afk i'd prefer the ladder rack even, except in a lightning storm
20:06 zhanx my tent some how fits the bed perfect, getting in will be hard tho,
20:06 zhanx so ground camping is the name of the game
20:08 katsmeow-afk i always hated the tire humps in th ebed, my 3500HD is flat, all 8ft wide of it
20:08 zhanx insurance is also 30 dollars cheaper a month
20:08 katsmeow-afk ok, 2 minutes to see if the client locks up again..........
20:08 zhanx spying on a client?
20:09 katsmeow-afk client as in "irc client", in this case, a mirc script
20:09 zhanx oh the buggy client
20:09 katsmeow-afk no
20:09 zhanx xchat is stable for months
20:09 zhanx weechat is stable for years
20:09 katsmeow-afk i changed a line of code and didn't test it
20:10 zhanx k
20:14 tsmeow-afk s
20:14 katsmeow-afk at 7pm, it didn't echo and log the date-time once, it did so over 600,000 times
20:15 zhanx wow
20:16 katsmeow-afk well, it can't crash again till 9pm
20:20 katsmeow-afk http://www.abc3340.com/story/18607659/city-of-fairfield-leaders-want-mayor-held-in-contempt-of-court
20:26 Tom_itx initial stepper test a success
20:26 tsmeow-afk offers a finely made box of cong
20:30 Tom_itx problem was that the old control opto isolators get power from the db25 and it needs 22 23 and 24 25 jumpered for that
20:30 Tom_itx i forgot to do that yesterday
20:30 Tom_itx very frustrating
20:34 tsmeow-afk
20:35 tsmeow-afk thinks those are all gro
20:36 katsmeow-afk i should go out ans see if that water tank is leaking
20:36 Tom_itx yes, take some duct tape along so you don't need to make a return trip
20:37 Tom_itx no, 2 gnd 2 +5
20:51 katsmeow-afk so far, so good
20:55 Tom_itx excellent
20:59 katsmeow-afk i seem to use ~ a gallon of "clean" water per day for cooking and drinking, which will goto 2 gallon in summer, and i think this is a 40 gallon tank, which i'll gravity feed to sinks, so worse case of no new water from the creek and no electricity for pumps, i'll still have 5 weeks of RO water to drink and cook with
21:00 katsmeow-afk i have another 40 gal i can put up there for the RO's bypass water, but it's hard to justify another plumbing system to the toilets
21:03 katsmeow-afk besides, the "waste" RO bypass water is filtered 40x better than the water i am feeding to the toilets now, 0.5 microns vs 20 microns
21:06 Tom_itx no need to boil it after going thru that?
21:06 katsmeow-afk boil which?
21:06 Tom_itx the drinking water
21:06 Tom_itx from the creek
21:06 tsmeow-afk looks at
21:07 Tom_itx ?
21:07 Tom_itx you're pumping it from the creek right?
21:07 Tom_itx and sending it thru the RO
21:07 Tom_itx right?
21:07 Tom_itx after the filters of course
21:08 katsmeow-afk it's filtered down to 20 u , then down to 0.5u , then down to .001u , that eliminates all cycts, viruses, bacteria, and (since one of the filters is also carbon) also many chemicals
21:08 Tom_itx ok
21:08 Tom_itx i didn't know
21:08 katsmeow-afk if i had energy to burn, i might boil it., but i don't
21:09 Tom_itx i don't have much anymore either
21:09 Tom_itx i sometimes feel i'm just passing time
21:09 katsmeow-afk i keep hearing all the drawbacks to all the various systems, and the only ting that remotely foolproof seems to be making the water with hydrogen and oxygen in a closed system
21:10 katsmeow-afk many chemicals get thru boiling, some stuff gets thru UV lites, lots of stuff gets thru chlorine, etc etc
21:11 katsmeow-afk woo, no lockup
22:35 katsmeow-afk maybe it's just we are all getting old, ecept for zhanx, who is growing younger
22:52 katsmeow-afk we have a wolfspider, theBear, a swordfish, a spacekitten, katsmeow, furrywolf, duckinator, and earlier we had fritzthecat
