00:37 <Shed-34046> My internet is a goof ball for the past few days :P

00:37 <Shed-34046> it drops to much

00:46 *** Shed-34046 is now known as PinkieShy

00:46 * DashedRainbows licks Thelema5 a lot

00:51 * Thelema5 tastes of mandarin orange chick'n noodle stir fry

00:52 <Thelema5> How are you doing, Dashed?

00:52 * DashedRainbows relicks Thelema5. hum

00:52 <DashedRainbows> I'm doing ok

00:53 <DashedRainbows> sorta

00:53 <DashedRainbows> I dislike my bladder of a 4yo

00:55 <Cepheid> Tell me about it.  Due to my meds and diabetes, fluids go right through me.

00:55 <DashedRainbows> yup

00:56 <DashedRainbows> meds and glucose too

00:56 <PinkieShy> Tea goes right through me.. not like tea made at home but say bojangles, mcdonalds and zaxbys..

00:56 <DashedRainbows> also small bladder because of disuse

00:59 <DashedRainbows> how is the Thelema5?

00:59 <Thelema5> Meh. Hurt my back somehow

00:59 <DashedRainbows> aww

00:59 <Thelema5> It's tolerable, but makes it hard to move

01:00 <Thelema5> I just hope we don't get a snowstorm any time soon because I won't be able to shovel

01:01 <DashedRainbows> northeners and their snow

01:01 <DashedRainbows> I'm still not sure it exists

01:01 <Cepheid> It does.

01:02 <DashedRainbows> huh

01:02 <DashedRainbows> it sucks then

01:03 <Thelema5> Yah

01:04 <Cepheid> https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/bus-crash-westboro-station-ottawa-1.4975385 I used to go by that station on a daily basis.

01:05 <Thelema5> Yikes.

01:08 <Thelema5> Just a few months ago the worst car collision the US has in 9 years happened just north of where I live

01:08 <Thelema5> *has seen

01:09 <Thelema5> A stretch limo with 17 teen on their way to a birthday party smashed into a parked car, killing them, the driver, and two bystanders

01:10 <Thelema5> https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/07/nyregion/wedding-limo-crash-schoharie-ny.html

01:10 <Cepheid> OCTranspo is having a bad 12 months.  Two delays on LRT, memories of the last time a bus was destroyed with passengers, and now this.  Kinda makes my incident with them earlier look like a minor inconvenience.

01:10 <Thelema5> I'd avoid the bus when possible then, Cepheid

01:11 * DashedRainbows gives Thelema5 a small pony ride

01:11 <Thelema5> Until they get their stuff together

01:11 <Cepheid> Was getting on a bus, and the doors close on me, causing me to fall off the buss and accidentally strike someone with my hand as I reached for something to grab onto.

01:11 * Thelema5 would crush a smol pony

01:11 <Thelema5> O.o

01:11 <Cepheid> Had I not struck him, I'd have landed on my butt hard or worse.

01:12 <Cepheid> The bus driver decided that while I was boarding, he would move his bus up ahead a bit because the bus ahead of him departed.

01:12 <Thelema5> Could have broken your coccyx

01:12 * DashedRainbows calls their horse friend

01:13 <Cepheid> I wasn't in the wrong.  He was parked, doors completely open..

01:16 <DashedRainbows> oh right. you're scared of full-size horses

01:16 <DashedRainbows> tbh they can really hurt you

01:16 <Thelema5> They are huge powful animals, and I am basically a wad of chewed bubblegum

01:17 <Thelema5> *powerful

01:18 <DashedRainbows> nice metaphor

01:21 <Thelema5> I think it's from fight club

01:22 <DashedRainbows> ah

01:22 * DashedRainbows whinnies

01:22 <Thelema5> Ah, no... tthat was a ball of cookie dough

01:25 * DashedRainbows pokes Thelema5. squishy

01:28 <Thelema5> Pretty much. Ever since my SO left I've been getting zero exercise and eating nothing but junk.

01:28 <DashedRainbows> huh

01:28 <DashedRainbows> I do that

01:28 <Thelema5> I weight the same, but only because I've lost as much muscle as i've gained in fat

01:28 <DashedRainbows> must be a single thing

01:30 <Thelema5> I just need to start hiking and walking again... it's hard in the winter, though

03:24 <Thelema5> I've been looking for something to do this weekend for nearly an hour- came up empty hooved. This time of year in my region is dead- more than half of the businesses close for the winter, there's no tourism and therefore no events or festivals... gah

03:24 <Thelema5> I would love to get out of this house, but there's nothing to do

03:28 <DashedRainbows> huh, progress!

03:40 <PinkieShy> Ugh

03:40 <PinkieShy> Twitter getting a new design.

03:40 <PinkieShy> oh neat..

03:40 <PinkieShy> It looks more like the mobile app..

03:43 <PinkieShy> Instead of making a box to type in when you click "What's happening" it gives like an overlay to type the tweet.

03:52 <DashedRainbows> yeah

03:53 <PinkieShy> If you ever used the windows 10 twitter app.. You'll know what i am talking about the twitter.com looks just like that now..

03:54 <PinkieShy> They gave me a button "New twitter design soon, want to see it early?" I hit that and now its basically only taking me there :P

04:04 <DashedRainbows> huh must have clicked it then

04:38 <SunsetShimmer> Schism: ....Leon. :P

04:38 <Schism> Oh right.  :P

04:39 <SunsetShimmer> But yeah, really promising - already committed to the PS4 version weeks ago, but I'm glad the lappy can actually hold up playing it

04:39 <Schism> Hum.  The water bill at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue was $16.5 million last quarter.  It's not been paid.

04:39 <Schism> And that is nice to hear, yah.

04:44 <Thelema5> Gotta wash away all the BS

04:44 <Schism> There was a bit of a discussion at DC Water about whether they could cut the White House off for nonpayment of the bill.

04:45 <Thelema5> They should, honestly... if the white house is going to keep cutting off federal workers

04:45 <Schism> Short answer: Yes, with an 'if' -- long answer, no, with a 'but'.

04:46 <Thelema5> I just ate an entire bag of salt and vinegar chips, so I think I should understand that better

04:47 <Schism> Heh, Simpsons reference.  But honestly, the answer is 'can, but won't ... yet'.

04:47 <Thelema5> Gotcha

04:48 <Thelema5> I stopped watching Simpsons maybe... 8 years ago? 9?

04:48 <Thelema5> Stuff got stale and rehashed

04:48 <Thelema5> Which is inevitable after so many seasons

04:49 <Thelema5> Saw the same with the last seasons of MLP

04:50 <Schism> Yah, though this was from the early seasons.  Reverend Lovejoy's answer to some ridiculous question of Bart's, in the episode "Bart Sells His Soul".

04:50 <Schism> If I'm not misremembering.

04:50 <Thelema5> Heh

04:51 <Thelema5> Makes sense

05:56 <Thelema5> I think Cheddar Off dead is my favorite

05:59 <Thelema5> Makes me think of the 80's film staring John Cusack, Kim Darby, and Diane Franklin

06:00 <Thelema5> So quotable

06:02 <Thelema5> "I want my 2 dollars!" "This mountain is pure snow!" "You like raisins" " Now that's a real shame when folks be throwin' away a perfectly good white boy like that.", "Go that way, really fast. If something gets in the way, turn!"

06:02 <Thelema5> Etc, etc

06:12 <Thelema5> I'm so sad that Bernie Sanders to so old that it will impact his ability to make a successful run for the preseidency in 2020

06:12 <Thelema5> The man should be leading the country right now, instead of this reality show tyrant

06:13 <SunsetShimmer> It's sad to think that he reflects what a large portion of the country seem to feel they deserve

06:14 <SunsetShimmer> the cheeto in charge, not bernie

06:14 <Thelema5> Yah

06:15 <Thelema5> It's not that large, though. Most of his followers are just giving blind allegence along part lines. He was fiercy contested within his party during his candidacy

06:15 <Thelema5> *party

06:16 <SunsetShimmer> I mean its still a large portion - not talking about if a majority or not

06:16 <SunsetShimmer> theres numbers in his party that defy logic or reason(ing)

06:19 <Thelema5> I honestly feel that he really only has the support of the extreme right, and that conservatives and moderates just toe the line to maintain power

06:20 <Thelema5> But enough politics\

17:51 <Cepheid> So, I found out what was rattling inside my laptop.

17:51 <Cepheid> After disassembling everything, excluding keyboard and touchpad.

17:51 <Cepheid> Remember how I mentioned that the hinge was squeaking

17:51 <Ali> You sure it wasn't me? :P

17:52 <Cepheid> Nah.

17:53 <Cepheid> The cause was that *TWO* screws, not one, literally unscrewed themselves over time and started flopping around inside the hinge covers.

17:53 <Starlight_Glimmer> Ali: Don't take this the wrong way, but I'm quite certain your butt does not fit in a notebook :3

17:54 <Ali> Sure the joint wasn't stripped Cepheid?  Screws usually don't undo themselves

17:55 <Cepheid> Wasn't stripped.

17:55 <Cepheid> Screw was able to tighten in pretty well without issue.

17:55 <Ali> Odd

17:56 * Ali flops next to Cepheid while waiting for .17 Factorio

17:57 * Schism hums, and waves to folks. Also, facehoofs. "Teen decided to do the 'Bird Box Challenge' while driving. The result was predictable, and thankfully nobody was injured. But honestly."

17:57 <Ali> I have to guess, what is this bird box challenge?

17:57 <Ali> OTHER than it being a stupid thing

17:57 <Schism> Doing everyday tasks while blindfolded.

17:58 <Ali> So instead of doing something simple

17:58 <Ali> They choose DRIVING

17:58 <Schism> You know, walking around, feeding yourself, and evidently now driving a car, yes.

17:58 * Ali gives them the darwin award. well, they can't actually have it, they had to die first

17:59 <Schism> I'm sure it won't take long before someone actually dies over this.

17:59 <Ali> Human stupidity usually doesn't take long to expose

17:59 <Ali> Walking blindfolded..... off a cliff

18:00 <Ali> Then again that was the Pokemon Go Challenge

18:00 <Schism> Eh.  So long as they don't look down, they won't fall.  You know, the old Wile E. Coyote thing.

18:00 <Ali> Cause people wouldn't look up from their stupid screen

18:00 <Ali> Sadly Schism that trick doesn't work in real life

18:01 * Schism knows, was being intentionally silly. "And yes, the Pokemon Go thing is also stupid."

18:01 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, I still don't know what's up with the CPU fan and controller.

18:01 <Cepheid> CPU fan is still running max speed.  Controller is *STILL* reporting 25,500 RPM.

18:02 <Cepheid> Pretty sure at that speed, my laptop would be levitating.

18:03 * DashedRainbows oils Ali

18:03 <Cepheid> The weird thing about the hinge screws by the way..

18:03 <Cepheid> There was threadlocker on the screws.

18:03 <Cepheid> They shouldn't be turning on their own in the first place.

18:03 <Ali> Pft

18:03 * DashedRainbows also licks Cepheid

18:05 <Cepheid> My guess is, because of the amount of force required to rotate the hinge(It's considerable.  The hinge feels solid.) the screw is "pulled on" a bit every time.

18:05 <Cepheid> And that pulling causes a slight bit of rotation.

18:05 <Cepheid> After a variable amount of rotation, the screw pops out.

18:14 <Cepheid> It was actually going to keep getting worse, too.

18:14 <Cepheid> The left-most hinge itself was moving inside the system enclosure, the remaining screws were loose enough for it to move freely.

18:14 <Ali> Annoying

18:28 *** Joins: danwellby (Daniel_well@when.hell.freezes.over)

18:30 <Cepheid> As for the fan..

18:30 <Ali> Hopefully those screws didn't bang into it

18:31 <Cepheid> Nah, the screws are enclosed in a hinge cover separate from the board.

18:31 <Cepheid> I've done the following:  OS re-install, different OSes, BIOS flash, forced BIOS flash to reset the BIOS settings, remove CMOS battery for 30 seconds, replaced CPU fan, replaced thermal paste on CPU, checked connection repeatedly, examined bottom and top of board..

18:32 <Cepheid> Outside of replacing the system board, which is expensive, nothing has worked.

18:32 <Cepheid> It still reports 25,500 RPM, and still runs at 100%.

18:33 <Ali> That is a strange little bug

18:33 <Cepheid> Wonder if there's any update on the bus crash last night.

18:34 <Ali> Are you running any sort of fan override software Cepheid?

18:34 <Cepheid> Nope.

18:34 <Cepheid> Just using OS-specific controls.  It refuses to budge in speed.

18:35 <Cepheid> It's either 0, or 25500 RPM, and when it's set to run at 0, it's still running.

18:35 <Ali> That is a really odd OS quirk

18:36 *** Quits: FruitNibbler (Eogan@Pony-6gnc9o.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

18:36 <Cepheid> It's not OS.

18:36 <Cepheid> Even when it's just in the BIOS, it's running 100%.

18:36 <Cepheid> It's something with the hardware.

18:36 <Ali> That's a strange bug with a full reset

18:36 <Cepheid> Anyways, I need to reboot my laptop, I shall be right back.

18:38 <Cepheid> Back.

18:39 <Ali> Have you tried to move all important stuff off of it and do a factory reset?

18:41 <Cepheid> Did that as well.

18:41 <Cepheid> I've even tried an alternative technique which resets everything to bare metal defaults.

18:43 <Cepheid> I didn't notice any jumpers on the systemboard, but then, I wasn't looking either.

18:48 <Cepheid> While I was at it, I air blasted all the dust and such inside.  Lot accrued on the underside of the board.  Also some cat hair.

18:49 <Cepheid> I don't want to know how, since all the air inputs are covered in filters.

18:49 <Cepheid> Fixing the hinge was nice, though.  It'd been feeling kinda loose.  No more.

19:04 <Cepheid> Hum, system boards are $200 to $250.

19:04 <Cepheid> Would be cheaper than a new laptop, to be honest.

19:05 <Cepheid> But I'll leave that for when something serious fails.  CPU fan isn't worth it.

19:41 <PinkieShy> vrchat lol wanted to stream it

19:44 <Schism> "I'm starting to think there's something about carpet that makes cats sick."

19:45 <Cepheid> The issue we have with cats and carpet is their incessant need to claw at it.

19:45 <Cepheid> They have a scratching post.  They primarily claw at it when they want in somewhere.

22:53 <Cepheid> Meds don't seem to be working too awesome for me today.  Twitchy.  Nervous.  Can't play games.  Just want to lay back and read or watch anime.

22:53 <Cepheid> Either that or the meds are working, but my body is telling me to relax.

22:58 <Cepheid> I only seem to feel 'relaxed' when I am reading or watching something.

22:59 <SunsetShimmer> Thats unfortunate

23:02 <Cepheid> I want to be productive, somewhere in my brain but...  If my body says no, then there isn't anything I can do.

23:12 <PinkieShy> I used some eyedrops before bed last night.. Instead of waking up at 7am stopping myself from rubbing my eyes.. I slept soundly :)

23:13 <Ali> Sleeping soundly?  What's that?

23:49 <Schism> Ah, haven't read those ones.  Read many other reincarnation stories, though.

23:49 <Schism> Any LitRPG elements there?

23:52 <PinkieShy> time for the connection tester to go up for an hour or 2..

23:52 <PinkieShy> Since connections drops been happening same time every night.. agian..

23:54 <Cepheid> LitRPG?
