[00:05:01] <The_Jester> Hey _m00n_
[00:05:10] <rue_house> jester!
[00:05:26] <The_Jester> Greets
[00:06:48] <The_Jester> so, wazzup?
[00:07:03] <rue_house> ordering more usb to ttl serial adapters
[00:07:09] <rue_house> apparently I'v used them all up
[00:07:14] <rue_house> NO IDEA where they go
[00:07:20] * The_Jester *gasp*
[00:07:54] <rue_house> like, how many usb things have I made!?
[00:08:30] <zhanx> Is it bad I broke a breaker bar today? 1/2" drive
[00:08:52] <The_Jester> how long
[00:09:07] <zhanx> 18"
[00:09:21] <rue_house> did you use your boot?
[00:09:28] <zhanx> Nope hands
[00:09:36] <rue_house> it must be moving up your body
[00:09:39] <zhanx> I workout again
[00:09:39] <The_Jester> thats about 150'lbs iirc
[00:10:03] <zhanx> More like 350-400
[00:11:08] <zhanx> Need stronger tools snap-on just isn't cutting it
[00:12:51] <The_Jester> 3/4" drive
[00:13:00] <rue_house> zhanx, try to mind when it gets to your head, you may break your wife with a kiss
[00:13:06] <rue_house> kiss of death
[00:13:32] <rue_house> wait, your snap-on snapped off?
[00:13:34] <katsmeow> 3/4 can be worth it, i had to get a 3/4 set, after i bent the 1/2 rachet and breaker
[00:13:40] <zhanx> 3/4 drive I break too easy, rue knows I get mad and oops
[00:14:05] * katsmeow hands zhanx some Buspar
[00:14:35] <zhanx> How about some anti depression meds?
[00:14:52] <rue_house> oh I need a new stepdown adapter, my last one didn't live thru the impact driver thing
[00:15:08] <rue_house> I think that was 5/8 to 1/2
[00:15:11] <katsmeow> the buspar is an end-run around depresson meds
[00:15:11] <zhanx> Va didn't send my refill again
[00:15:18] <The_Jester> i have a 3/4 drive torque wrench thats good for about 350=400'lbs.
[00:15:47] <rue_house> I think 350-400 and hand-snug for zhanx
[00:15:54] <zhanx> The _ jester bet I can bend it
[00:16:11] <The_Jester> needed it for my hubnuts on the stang when i replaced the front spindle assemblies
[00:16:24] <zhanx> Oh yea I can bend it
[00:17:00] <rue_house> http://www.aliexpress.com/item/20pcs-USB-to-TTL-USB-TTL-STC-microcontroller-programmer-PL2303-in-nine-upgrades-plate-with-a/32506559587.html
[00:17:02] <rue_house> hmm
[00:17:05] <zhanx> The_jester, I am tiny
[00:17:10] <rue_house> is 20 enough?
[00:17:18] <zhanx> Rue 21
[00:17:28] <The_Jester> Im sure you could but at that point you would also have crushed the bearings in the $200 sindle assembly.
[00:17:52] <The_Jester> at the same time not somthing I thought i wanted to risk under torquing
[00:18:23] <The_Jester> SO Rue: You remeber the annoying doubling i was experiencing with audio clips on the playbook?..
[00:18:29] <zhanx> 800 foot pounds is my normal max then get a bar to ensure its tight
[00:18:37] <rue_house> kinda
[00:18:58] <The_Jester> well appearently is a known issue and there is no work around..Yay..
[00:19:10] <rue_house> huh
[00:19:32] <The_Jester> ya, sad face and all that.
[00:20:28] <rue_house> __m00n__, I think I need help eating the rest of the burritos...
[00:20:36] <The_Jester> so on the splat attack demo it plays a slat and draws a splat sprite on touch @ touch but plays the wav twice.. grr.
[00:20:59] <rue_house> hmm
[00:21:36] <rue_house> it must be possable to play something once
[00:21:39] <rue_house> different format?
[00:22:01] <The_Jester> doesnt do it in firefox, have not tested any other mobile devices, i suspect it wouldent be an issue.. Might be time to look into sideloading anther browser that has been updated within the last 3 years.
[00:22:08] <rue_house> I think the chineese are making knockoffs of chineese knockoffs
[00:22:57] <The_Jester> appearently only does it with short clips, people had hoped for a fix in playvook 2.01 but no such luck, this device is garbage...lol
[00:23:11] <rue_house> oh easy then
[00:23:23] <rue_house> append a whole whack of silence on the end
[00:23:57] <rue_house> with the way things work these days, you could have 8M of silence on the end and nobody would notice the difference in overhead
[00:24:05] <The_Jester> i cant see the merit in adding 1 min of silence or more to a 10 second audio clip
[00:24:27] <rue_house> its the modern day typical bandaid
[00:25:15] <rue_house> everyone knows things dont work so they stack hacks on it to make it work close enough to the way they want, till its the norm and you have to do it to make anything work
[00:25:37] <zhanx> Sorry kid woke up
[00:25:38] <The_Jester> also canvas audio can oly play one audio element at a time, therefor for your theoreticaal 8 minutes you would be unable to play another clip, makes for lame game play.
[00:25:50] <rue_house> oooh
[00:26:21] <rue_house> so, you need a steaming media server that you send hit events to, and recieve splat in the audio
[00:26:24] <rue_house> :)
[00:26:33] <The_Jester> alternative is to use another audio Api such as howler but im concerned that it wouldent be supported or some similar crap.
[00:26:34] <rue_house> realtime generated placeholder silence
[00:26:47] <zhanx> Oh.. sensor are reading 42 and 41 f out
[00:27:00] <zhanx> Weird
[00:27:14] <rue_house> kats freezing
[00:27:36] <rue_house> global warming dosn't mean warm weather, it means terribly erratic weather
[00:27:46] <zhanx> Just checked outside it's cold out they might be right
[00:27:47] <The_Jester> what i really need is more damaged,broken, hot or therwise cloud locked ipad 4's
[00:28:39] <zhanx> Garden is 97% wet and 42/41 depending location
[00:29:34] <The_Jester> then I can ditch this playbook, sell off my car, all my computers and other electronics and buy a used macbook, which i would promptly take to starbucks and try to look important as i sip my non-fat grande latte
[00:30:47] <The_Jester> proclaiming that aplle is best and any one who disagrees knows nothing about computers, or similar starbucks based apple fanboy non-sense; all the while taking my beard very very seriously
[00:32:34] <rue_house> zhanx, the whole lot gonna get frozen on ya?
[00:32:45] <rue_house> go throw out some blankets?
[00:32:49] <zhanx> I hope not
[00:33:04] <The_Jester> then realizing what my life had become spiralling into a deep depression fueled by craft beer and organic quinoa
[00:33:09] <zhanx> No, the forecast is 42 so I hope I am ok
[00:33:32] <The_Jester> Why so cold?, alaska?
[00:33:47] <rue_house> its 39 in alabama right now
[00:33:49] <rue_house> f
[00:33:59] <rue_house> 32 is freezing
[00:34:15] <zhanx> Upstate new York, where Alaska does cold weather training
[00:35:00] <The_Jester> Strange to me it would be so cool right now, but im in western canada the land of gray skys and liquid sunshine
[00:35:23] <rue_house> global warming dosn't mean warm weather, it means terribly erratic weather
[00:35:42] <zhanx> Rue don't play into that hipe
[00:36:01] <The_Jester> rue is that a macro or have you been replaced by a severly disabled self=aware AI?
[00:36:02] <rue_house> following your politicians saying it isn't happening eh?
[00:36:18] <rue_house> it might expalint he light headed ness

[00:39:32] <rue_house> get all the software I need copied to the laptop and blackie
[00:39:44] <rue_house> (I'm taking the laptop as a computer backup)
[00:40:17] <rue_house> zhanx, early signs of dehydration?
[00:41:02] <zhanx> Nope just depression
[00:41:44] <The_Jester> how is a not fully working ipad4 mobo worth $77 usd?..
[00:44:58] <The_Jester> i wonder what it would cost me to take that thing to a chineese ipad repair place to find out wtf is wrong with it, i wouldent be at all surprised if that lighting connector i bought for it was duf.
[00:46:04] <rue_house> zhanx, no no
[00:46:16] <rue_house> I mean pls tell me the early signs of dehydration
[00:46:20] <rue_house> pff
[00:46:20] <zhanx> Oh
[00:46:30] <zhanx> Headache first sign
[00:46:34] <rue_house> I figure its part of your military blaaaa
[00:46:37] <rue_house> hmm
[00:46:38] <rue_house> k
[00:46:39] <zhanx> Cap refill is off
[00:46:52] <rue_house> er?
[00:46:54] <zhanx> Leg veins are enlarged
[00:47:01] <rue_house> oh...
[00:47:08] <rue_house> hmm
[00:47:20] <zhanx> Touch a finger nail does the color come back fast?
[00:47:25] <rue_house> aparently I'm not a good operator of my body
[00:47:39] <rue_house> ok, I'll watch that
[00:47:47] <zhanx> Dominate arm stress
[00:48:00] <rue_house> wholy gazoo, I'm never seen this before
[00:48:02] <The_Jester> urine will be deep in color
[00:48:19] <rue_house> I can see the contrast of my heartbeat in my fingernail
[00:48:20] <zhanx> The_jester not a sign
[00:48:30] <zhanx> Rue drink water
[00:48:35] <The_Jester> color will take a moment to return after pressing down or pinching finger nail,
[00:48:38] <rue_house> I dont like water
[00:48:40] <rue_house> :)
[00:48:48] <zhanx> Drink sweet tea
[00:48:52] <rue_house> but apparently pop dosn't rehydrate ya
[00:48:55] <rue_house> er?
[00:49:00] <The_Jester> steched skin will take longer to return to its normal position
[00:49:05] <rue_house> I drink ice tea all day
[00:49:18] <rue_house> The_Jester, I think thats when your REALLY dehydrated
[00:49:25] <zhanx> If he can see a heart beat, that's Umm not good
[00:49:38] <The_Jester> fairly standard criteria
[00:49:50] <katsmeow> when you get cottonmouth and your lips are cracking
[00:49:52] <rue_house> I'v had the headache thing beofre, there is nothing more embarrasing than being in emergency and them saying "your just dehydrated"
[00:50:02] <rue_house> and sitting there on a IV for a half hour
[00:50:17] <zhanx> Rue, fyi fruit
[00:50:17] <rue_house> its faint, I can see the difference in contrast
[00:50:52] <rue_house> yea! potato!
[00:50:53] <The_Jester> Rue: your fine, drink a tall glass of water or two before bed.
[00:50:53] <rue_house> :)
[00:51:03] <zhanx> Contrast in urine is not a hydrant qualifier
[00:51:09] <rue_house> oh yea, drink water before bed, I just picked that up a while ago
[00:51:20] <rue_house> a bunch of vit B is :)
[00:51:58] <rue_house> katsmeow, aparently I'm just immune to feeling thirsty
[00:52:07] <zhanx> Jester I spent 15 years in the army at various fun jobs as rue knows hence why he asks
[00:52:10] <The_Jester> zhanx: Neuphrologist must be wrong.
[00:52:40] <rue_house> zhanx, has a better track record so far than the doctors
[00:52:48] <zhanx> 8 years sf I would argue it
[00:53:29] <The_Jester> copypasta: Little or no urination — any urine that is produced will be darker than normal
[00:53:36] <rue_house> burnt matches might be voodoo, but immediatly after, my gut bloat thing went away and I got the 2 inches back on my beltline, after long enough I actually changed up from 30" to 32" pants
[00:53:47] <katsmeow> rue, you may be immune to detecting the state of your body, but that doesn't mean it's not in distress
[00:54:06] <zhanx> Rue, I also have more real world experience than some doctors unfortunately
[00:54:34] <rue_house> yea, 2 days ago I realized that I couldn't tell when I was dehydrated till I got a brutal headache, and I needed a way of telling sooner
[00:54:50] <zhanx> Tap toes is what I use
[00:54:57] <rue_house> ?
[00:55:14] <rue_house> I tap my toes when I'm dehydrated?
[00:55:17] <The_Jester> zhanx: Keeping youself and others alive is alot more indepth than refilling persciptions and look at liver spots on old ladies
[00:55:34] <katsmeow> no, if you don't feel dizzy when you stand back up, you may be ok
[00:55:48] <zhanx> Nope tap my toes, how does it feel, etc kat is right also
[00:55:52] <rue_house> The_Jester, admit it, our doctors are experts in listening to what the pets of little old ladies did on the weekend than just about anything
[00:55:54] <katsmeow> or get tunnel vision
[00:56:00] <zhanx> Spots
[00:56:16] <katsmeow> yeas, or spots
[00:56:19] <zhanx> Jester true
[00:56:36] <rue_house> The_Jester, if they were better, they would have listened to you years ago and checked you properly
[00:57:12] <zhanx> I am rue's doc
[00:57:13] <rue_house> how can I tell if I have tunnel vision, I drive all day :)
[00:57:26] <rue_house> zhanx, I'm just saying, so far your doing better
[00:57:39] <rue_house> and I'm not calling matches anything more than voodoo
[00:57:44] <zhanx> Rue that's cause I don't bs
[00:57:52] <The_Jester> yeah well its better to deny the truth and let somone die, that admite that a highschool drop out is more capable of making an advaced diagnosis than a trained doctor.
[00:57:56] <rue_house> how long did they have my taking drugs that didn't work?
[00:57:59] <zhanx> Matches worked it ain't voodoo
[00:58:08] <The_Jester> on the bright side i have really long nifty scars and 3 kidneys
[00:58:18] <rue_house> :)
[00:58:30] <The_Jester> lol
[00:58:50] <The_Jester> Battle Damage, UPGRADES!
[00:58:58] <zhanx> Jester I can't change your kidney but I can/ could have pretreated it
[00:59:13] <zhanx> Battle damage is all my scars
[00:59:17] <rue_house> I'd never put down a surgen, so far, I can say its finer work than any electronics I'v done yet
[00:59:46] <rue_house> The_Jester, has a really rare combo of conditions
[00:59:51] <The_Jester> if you can use google your far more advaced that canadian physisians, who claimed it was impossable that i would have a rare genetic illness.... Well as it turns out...
[00:59:59] <zhanx> The scar on my left bicep is finally going away
[01:00:08] <rue_house> so rare, that when he diagnosed it they wouldn't even test him for it cause they said it was too unlikley
[01:00:31] <rue_house> I have to go to bed
[01:00:43] <zhanx> Jester, just a combat sf medic slash weapons guy who makes robots
[01:00:52] <rue_house> I have things to do and sleep to accumulate
[01:01:30] <rue_house> ugh, I'm gonna be squeezing my fingertips all day for weeks to try to work out normal data
[01:01:36] <zhanx> 30 minutes and I am out
[01:01:49] <zhanx> Tap not squeeze
[01:02:30] <zhanx> Fun one tap your calves if the cramp drink water
[01:02:34] <The_Jester> Rue, Forgo the diagnostics and drink more water, if you think your rad is low just top it up, dont bother driving around town all day to see if it'll overheat and when
[01:02:39] <zhanx> They
[01:03:15] <zhanx> The_jester and if he drinks too much water and his electrolytes are low?
[01:03:43] <rue_house> I was also wondering how much data I can get from my weight
[01:03:49] <The_Jester> Gatoraid?..
[01:03:54] <rue_house> I dont like to drink water
[01:03:56] <The_Jester> ur the medic
[01:04:02] <zhanx> Salt
[01:04:12] <zhanx> And rue hates this MEAT
[01:04:17] <rue_house> zhanx, wait
[01:04:28] <zhanx> DAMN vegan
[01:04:28] <rue_house> so, if my calves cramp up I'm low on water?
[01:04:33] <zhanx> No
[01:04:55] <zhanx> Your low on electrolytes
[01:05:00] <katsmeow> gatorades and other sorts drinks aren't what they were, don't waste your money, eat a SMALL candy bar and a glass of water
[01:05:11] <rue_house> I'm a salt fanatic
[01:05:28] <rue_house> small, 4"x18"?
[01:05:29] <katsmeow> use Morton's Lite salt, it's got magnesium
[01:05:32] <zhanx> Banana
[01:05:52] <katsmeow> i mean potassium
[01:06:10] <rue_house> ok, too much diverse data, will boil it down and ask again later
[01:06:17] <The_Jester> Rue has given himself soft guts by living off noodles and similar for decades, when he eats meat his guts say" nope, thats too much work.. i was expecting rice and iced tea"
[01:06:29] <zhanx> Yep
[01:07:09] <katsmeow> then eat a can of Campbells CHUNKY veggie soup
