09:16 AM Tom_L: I read the logs though... Progresso
09:48 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> Took one of the headlight cans off - started sandblasting it. I think there is enough metal for it to be ok...
09:49 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> it is really really holy in spots.. But those spots are on the bottom - so drainage.
09:49 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> It all came apart - I was suprised..
09:50 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> prime it with rust inhibitor and call it good.
10:09 AM lcnc-relay: <roguish> O.J. Simpson has left the house for good......

10:15 AM JT-Shop: wow taxes are done
10:16 AM lcnc-relay: <travis_farmer> i wish mine were... don't even have a W2 to file with yet...
10:19 AM lcnc-relay: <roguish> fed law is you should have w-2 by end of Jan.
10:19 AM lcnc-relay: <roguish> I got a tiny refund yesterday. tax program over estimated a fee.
10:20 AM JT-Shop: I've very surprised that I only owe 1k
10:20 AM lcnc-relay: <travis_farmer> my father, former employer, has been depressed and hasn't even paid himself in weeks
10:21 AM lcnc-relay: <roguish> my wife did well last year, but neglected to pay estimated tax all year long. so she got to write a fat check....
10:22 AM lcnc-relay: <travis_farmer> i should get a small refund... whenever i get my W2...
10:23 AM lcnc-relay: <roguish> deadline is pretty close. ya might wanna talk to him about the w-2.
10:23 AM JT-Shop: I get $1500 back from the state but owe the feds $2500
10:23 AM roycroft: the w2 was required to be deliverd by the end of february
10:23 AM roycroft: if you don't have it your employer is not following the law
10:23 AM lcnc-relay: <travis_farmer> kinda like talking to a wall at this point
10:24 AM lcnc-relay: <roguish> probably oughta file an extension then. keep ya both out of trouble.
10:25 AM lcnc-relay: <travis_farmer> don't know if the accountant office did already or not... i should call them...
10:25 AM JT-Shop: yup
10:29 AM lcnc-relay: <roguish> Akebono has also left the house. a very large humanoid. 6'-8" and 466# https://apnews.com/video/sumo-tokyo-hawaii-bce7d86c3fd5404e8d53c957bf18de04
10:32 AM lcnc-relay: <roguish> travis_farmer: don't mess with the feds. once they're on ya, it gets ugly. here is Cal, the state tax guys are even worse than the feds.....
10:35 AM lcnc-relay: <travis_farmer> oh i know.
10:35 AM lcnc-relay: accountant won't file an extension without the paperwork in hand... apparently. 😦 so my father NEEDS to get his A$$ going!
10:35 AM roycroft: or you can just file it yourself, if you think you have enough informatino
10:36 AM lcnc-relay: <roguish> good luck.....get 'er done
10:36 AM roycroft: if you have your pay stubs for the year you should be able to make a good estimate
10:36 AM lcnc-relay: <travis_farmer> i don't have all of them...
10:36 AM roycroft: do you have your last one for the year, and does it have cumulative totals?
10:37 AM JT-Cave: did you deposit all of your pay checks?
10:37 AM roycroft: if so, use that as a w2 proxy
10:37 AM roycroft: for filing the extension
10:37 AM roycroft: and if it looks like you'll owe money, pay it now
10:37 AM lcnc-relay: <travis_farmer> i do, but it has only that stubs entries
10:37 AM roycroft: you can always get it refunded later
10:38 AM roycroft: i'm not sure there is much you can do right now if you don't have your w2
10:38 AM lcnc-relay: <travis_farmer> 😦
10:38 AM roycroft: you were supposed to get it by february 29, and it's on you to contat your employer if you did not get it in time
10:39 AM roycroft: i think your window for complaining to the irs that you did not get it is pretty much over
10:39 AM roycroft: and they would probably tell you to estimate your taxes and file an extension anyway
10:40 AM * roycroft is also running out of time, and may have to file an extension again, which he does not want to do
11:14 AM lcnc-relay: <travis_farmer> sounds to me like i am wrapped helically around an incline plane... 😦
12:17 PM Rab: Loetmichel, are you able to use both eyes on your microscope simultaneously with the video camera, or does one eyepiece need to be disabled for the video port?
01:31 PM XXCoder: jt interesting video, though only could watch small parts of it
02:14 PM lcnc-relay: <travis_farmer> go to https://www.oreillyauto.com/ and put "121G" into the search box and hit enter...

03:38 PM JT-Shop: going to look at run from line
03:43 PM lcnc-relay: <travis_farmer> hmmm... "It does not usually run in families, but people can inherit genetic features that increase their risk of developing it." i may be fine, but i still worry about my dad.
