<raptop> Hrm, apparently our CCD is having moisture problems, and needs to be cooked with a dessicant plug
<raptop> !8 Do not eat the plug?
<galois> raptop: yes

<raptop> Note to self: 1 millimag change is brightness is just under 1 permil
<WeylandsWings> raptop: ohhhhhh I have had ccd moisture issues before. Had to send the camera back to manufacturer for drying sealing and a new silica packet installed
<raptop> ...not sure how old this camera is
<WeylandsWings> So very out of warranty? The might do it for a cost. But given college operating budget it might be out of that window
<raptop> Yeah, I'd assume that we'd be doing on-site maintanance. IIRC, we've done something similiar in the past
<raptop> "Multi-channel Photometric Survey Telescope (Mephisto)"
<raptop> They'd better be finding backronyms for Diablo and Baal
<UmbralRaptop> <TmbrWolf> Today I learned that tectonic plates are not dishwasher safe, but they can be used for making a good continental breakfast

<raptop> bot idea: prepend various biology/chemistry terms to -virus

* galois gives raptop a sulfide Stokes bra
* raptop uses the sulfide Stokes <bra| on their mental health to do... something. Hopefully to regain productivity
<SnoopJeDi> :(
<SnoopJeDi> the p word is bad
<raptop> existential exhaustion
<raptop> Also, not to be confused with p-value
<SnoopJeDi> I know that feel and I wish I had words of wisdom to offer
<raptop> Like, I keep on getting stressed out about being too "tired" to do anything, which means that I'm too "tired" to do anything >_<
<raptop> confusing zoom meeting realization: I'm almost the only person who has a profile pic
<raptop> (No, not of my face)
<SnoopJeDi> is it a density profile
<raptop> Hah
<raptop> Pic of a galaxy from undergrad that I thought was cool (colors assembled in DS9 IIRC)
<raptop> Hrm, teacher wants pics for going up on the department website, preferably headshots
<raptop> !8 post a pic that's all in on your 2020 shenanigans
<galois> raptop: no
<raptop> Oh, good. Another grad student was struggling with productivity
<raptop> Like, he explicitly said that last week was bad

<WeylandsWings> raptop: Dual Infrared Astronomy Based In Orbit DIABLO
<WeylandsWings> BAAL Basic Astronomy Activities Lecture
<raptop> :D
<WeylandsWings> Sorry in Lagrange Orbit for Diablo
<WeylandsWings> I kept trying to come up with something better for Baal
<WeylandsWings> But failed
* raptop feels like this DIABLO is implicitly an interferometer
