<UmbralRaptor> I'll assume that is a yes, and there was an accidental banishment.

<Iskierka> the tip of this 5-point-star screwdriver is about the size of the tip of my needlenose pliers
<Iskierka> how on earth can you make a driveable screw that small
<Iskierka> like if not for the 5-star 0.8mm label I wouldn't even know it's 5-sided
<Iskierka> also the T3 hex star
<Iskierka> how do either of them fit in a screwhead usefully
<Iskierka> better yet, how is the 0.9 allen key not interchangeable with T3

<kmath_> egg: As I see it, yes
<egg> but which kind of cat
<UmbralRaptor> A 20 cm Celestron?
<egg> I was eyeing that Vixen thing without corrector plate
<UmbralRaptor> Huh, so it is a cat.
<egg> UmbralRaptor: what else would it be
<UmbralRaptor> Well, the title at the top is that it's a reflector, and it doesn't have a corrector plate in the normal position...
<egg> with that field lens and corrector in the focuser, it has to be a cat of sorts
<egg> (it's not a refractor, it clearly has a folded path)
<egg> UmbralRaptor: or maybe this one https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C3FJtqWWgAEB9H-.jpg:orig
<UmbralRaptor> That cat appears to be outgrowing its container, and should be moved soon.

<UmbralRaptor> !choose grade|quantum|taxes|fun research things
<Qboid> UmbralRaptor: Your options are: grade, quantum, taxes, fun research things. My choice: taxes
<egg> UmbralRaptor: you forgot kozai
<egg> kozai is always the answer
<egg> also, I need to remember to prepay mine
<egg> (no income, so I just have 24 CHF/year to eggsist)
<egg> this year I should actually start having income
<egg> but I can't prepay the taxes for that
<egg> because right now I don't have anywhere near enough for the taxes on a serious income
<egg> (prepaying is a good idea here, because they pay you interest if you pay too much, and it's pretty decent interest iirc)
<egg> (switzerland is strange)
<UmbralRaptor> 24 CHF/year seems like it would defeat the point of UBI. >_>
<egg> !wa 24 CHF in USD
<Qboid> egg: convert CHF24 (Swiss francs) to US dollars: $23.82 (US dollars)
<egg> UmbralRaptor: yeah, it's canton-dependent anyway
<egg> in some other cantons without income you don't get taxed at all
<egg> but here in ZH you get 24 CHF somehow :-p
* UmbralRaptor didn't realize that the CHF and USD were at parity.
<egg> yeah, pretty much now
<egg> !wa 1 EUR in CHF
<Qboid> egg: convert €1 (euro) to Swiss francs: CHF1.07 (Swiss francs)
<egg> this used to be pinned at 1.2 but the swiss got tired of buying EUR
<egg> so now EUR=CHF=USD for practical porpoises
<egg> also 20 CHF = 500 kVND
<egg> !wa 20 CHF in VND

<UmbralRaptor> Uh, at Baker Observatory yesterday, we saw a random farm dog.
<UmbralRaptor> egg: fair enough
<UmbralRaptor> The dog was quite friendly.
<egg> did you get dogpics?
<egg> UmbralRaptor: also I think I'm supposed to be fairly allergic to cat hair? got tested for various allergies for some reason at some point; that has never prevented me from putting my nose on a cat though
* UmbralRaptor did not.
<UmbralRaptor> Also, it's more likely you're allergic to dander?
<egg> dunno
<egg> UmbralRaptor: but I'm fairly sure if it had a strong effect I'd have noticed it after sniffing ANBOcat's belly
<UmbralRaptor> Though one could I suppose go with @eevee's cats.
* UmbralRaptor tends to notice after being in the same house as a cat for 30 minutes. More so if petting the cat. =\
<egg> UmbralRaptor: hmm, do eevee-style cat have that same effect on you?
<egg> s/cat/cats
<Qboid> egg meant to say: UmbralRaptor: hmm, do eevee-style cats have that same effect on you?
<egg> or do we want to make cat a mass noun
<egg> have some cat
