Yeesh, I'm looking at some thrifts episodes LGR did, and I really didn't expect CRTs to be SOOOOOOOO unpopular they're like a buck each at Goodwill.
<Rolf>
theres bunch of fun with those if you have skills
<Rolf>
can convert em to vector display
<Rolf>
can do other stuff
<Rolf>
also can you link to those link curious heh
<nate>
Draconiator: Well they basically eat more power than any other modern electronic in nearly the past two decades, have materials that make them illegal to dispose of in regular garbage/dumps/etc, also got the mild radioactivity issue
<nate>
So yeah, bit unpopular these days :P

mild radioactive? yikes. I got one just gathering dust on top of the oil tank, maybe I should check if the oil mutated or something...

"hey dawg I heard yu like pipes" lol
<nate>
Draconiator: Basically every time a CRT was turned on they discharged ionizing x-rays I believe it was, to the point that you could actually get a radioactive reading from all the dust build up inside them after years and years of use lol
<nate>
I mean you'd probably have to sit in front of one and turn it on and off non stop for years for it to become actual dangerous levels but yeah
<nate>
Other issue is late 80's and earlier had lots of lead or cadmium in them to (thus the issue of disposal in most places)
<Draconiator>
Still old tech kinda makes me happy for some reason. picked up a USB flippy drive for 5 bucks at a local thrift store a couple years ago. I got the disks after that. They were still there thankfully. still looking for an old laptop I can fix up hehe

I, for one, welcome our new jellyfish overlords

Fluburtur: what kind of human-centric thinking is that any higher being would call itself "human"?
<Eddi|zuHause>
imagine someone said "africans are just europeans without white skin"... he would of course be called a racist...
<sandbox>
...
<Eddi|zuHause>
... also, with that kind of substitution you can call anyone a racist for something he didn't actually say or mean :p
<sandbox>
I don't want to say any more
<Gasher[work]>
well as it is known, human is just a featherless bird with flat claws
<Fluburtur>
I have a fairly narrow throat on that nozzle so it should give good compression
<Fluburtur>
and the last test looked like it had enough power

wish I could figure out why wireless craps out even on very good signal. :\
<kubi>
hm
<UmbralRaptop>
too many users? interference?
<kubi>
no flying above the property of the king

<kubi>
you should switch to 5GHz
<kubi>
less traffic there for the time being
<JVFoxy>
full bars, just drops suddenly, not very consistent. Sometimes it'll go 5 times in 5 minutes, or stay up for half the day. I try to reconnect even on full bars, it refuses. Troubleshoot says, issues with wireless access point or wants me to reconnect usb
<JVFoxy>
do'nt have 5ghz here...
<Fluburtur>
what kind of crap is this music software
<JVFoxy>
last place I lived, was live on site of storage place, kitchen right across wall from me. Whenever he used the microwave, it would cook the connection
<Fluburtur>

<Fluburtur>
there is similar things here but they havent done it in a while
<Fluburtur>

bohemian rhapsody is not the easiest piece to do with a bunch of random people that you could grab hold of
