[00:06]<Quantos> Besides a base camp is suggestive of mountains
[00:06]<Quantos> I fear I'm rambling now, I'm going to go watch a movie
[00:07]<@BC_Programming> Being suggestive of mountains is why all my icons/logos have had a mountain in them
[00:08]<Quantos> Ah ha
[00:09]<Quantos> Don't ask what that means, I'm not sure myself...
[00:09]<@BC_Programming> Like my old mug: http://bc-programming.com/images/bcmugrs.jpg
[00:12]<Quantos> I didn't know you had a mug shot, what were you charged with?
[00:12]<Quantos> Writing clean optimized code?
[00:13]<@BC_Programming> heh, Actually that mug broke like 5 years ago
[00:13]<Quantos> Bummer
[00:13]<@BC_Programming> or my older avatar: http://bc-programming.com/images/newavatar.png which I simplified for my new avatar:http://bc-programming.com/images/bctileblacken.png
[00:13]<Quantos> It's always the good ones that die young
[00:13]<@BC_Programming> mountains everywhere
[00:13]<Quantos> Heheheh
[00:14]<Quantos> Especially in Norway...
[00:14]<@BC_Programming> This was one of the originals I made in like 2003: http://bc-programming.com/images/BCLOGO2.jpg
[00:14]<Quantos> That actually looks really cool except for that flag
[00:15]<@BC_Programming> That is why the flag no longer appears on the higher res versions
[00:15]<Quantos> I like the rainbow, it reminds me that I need to let the grooviness get into my soul\
[00:15]<@BC_Programming> Though I can't seem to find it on my website
[00:15]<Quantos> That's a feature
[00:16]<Quantos> There we go, nothing like a nice big fattie to get the grooviness going
[00:17]<Quantos> http://metro.co.uk/2017/09/25/former-worlds-fattest-woman-died-in-hospital-from-heart-disease-6953437/
[00:17]<Quantos> I like them with a couple of extra pounds eh
[00:19]<@BC_Programming> so fat the crematorium needed a drip tray
[00:20]<Quantos> The tray is a six wheel drive Coyote...
[00:20]<Quantos> Used a piano for an urn
[00:21]<@BC_Programming> ahh here it is
[00:21]<@BC_Programming> http://www.bc-programming.com/images/screens/basecamp_wallpaper.png
[00:21]<Quantos> That's pretty sharp
[00:21]<Quantos> I'm confused by the 1's and 0's though
[00:21]<@BC_Programming> duh they are computer-ey
[00:22]<Quantos> They don't seem to say anything though
[00:22]<Quantos> Or is some cut off?
[00:23]<@BC_Programming> They are lower opacity but I don't remember if they ever said anything
[00:23]<Quantos> Oh, I see them now that you mention it
[00:23]<Quantos> Very faint
[00:24]<Quantos> I was originally only seeing the bottom two rows
[00:24]<@BC_Programming> converted to ascii they say nothing
[00:24]<Quantos> What kind of sermon do you need to convert Binary to ASCII
[00:24]<@BC_Programming> just copy pasted from the original photoshop- and a bunch of them ran off the sides. I think it was just a visual flourish that seemed computerey
[00:25]<@BC_Programming> I just googled for a website and pasted in
[00:25]<Quantos> It looks good though
[00:25]<@BC_Programming> I should change it to say something like a secret message
[00:25]<Quantos> If you can read this I'll send you a Nanaimo Bar
[00:25]<Quantos> Just pay $150 for shipping and handling
[00:25]<@BC_Programming> "wasted your time converting this"
[00:26]<Quantos> LOL
[00:26]<Quantos> Just think though, with that shipping and handling fee you'd go up a few tax brackets
[00:27]<Quantos> Which in Canada is what puts you in the poor house
[00:28]<Quantos> I mean, Jihadi Justin needs to give it to people imprisoned in other countries
[00:29]<Quantos> I just hope my $10 million dollar check arrives for Christmas
[00:29]<Quantos> I figure that I definitely deserve one having been wrongfully convicted in this country
[00:30]<@BC_Programming> But tax brackets only apply higher percentages to the income amount beyond their lower bound
[00:31]<Quantos> Hmm, that means that the govt. isn't getting enough money
[00:31]<Quantos> I'll have to cut them a check for the new year
[00:31]<@BC_Programming> no I'm saying that if you make more money and go into a higher tax bracket, you aren't going to have less than if you had never been "bumped" into that tax bracket
[00:32]<Quantos> I have
[00:32]<Quantos> I was working in a warehouse, they gave me a raise that put me barely into the next bracket
[00:32]<Quantos> I was taking home $10 less a month
[00:32]<Quantos> It was confusing
[00:33]<@BC_Programming> eg it's %15 up to 45,916, so if you make 45,917 you are in the higher bracket, but the higher rate of %20.5 percent only applies to the 1 dollar above 45,916
[00:33]<Quantos> Yeah, that's about the limit of my understanding of the tax world
[00:34]<@BC_Programming> maybe provincial taxes don't always work that way I guess
[00:34]<Quantos> Taxes for the rich must suck
[00:35]<Quantos> It would be terrible to keep getting tax breaks
[00:35]<Quantos> Never the same thing to pay
[00:35]<Quantos> Oh, I remember what it was
[00:36]<Quantos> It put me into a bracket where my health care premiums weren't covered anymore
[00:36]<Quantos> That's what it was
[00:36]<Quantos> Or not covered as much
[00:39]<@BC_Programming> whew with this money talk I suddenly thought I forgot to pay a bill but I didn't
[00:39]<Quantos> Oh that's the worst
[00:40]<Quantos> Or not remembering and sending them a second check
[00:41]<Quantos> Which bounces because of course there's not enough in the checking account
[00:42]<@BC_Programming> It was more "Why do I have this much" and figuring I must have forgotten something
[00:43]<Quantos> If you are suffering from the dreaded 'I have far too much money' syndrome I'd be more than happy to help you with it
[00:43]<Quantos> :P
[00:44]<@BC_Programming> well I'm going to need it in February for a Dental Crown
[00:44]<Quantos> Ugh, bummer
[00:44]<@BC_Programming> I've done less "Buying useless crap on eBay/Amazon" which is probably why I have more than I expected
[00:44]<Quantos> You fell into that too?
[00:44]<@BC_Programming> haha yeah
[00:44]<Quantos> I bought a batch of CPU shims
[00:44]<@BC_Programming> "ooh a dehydrator I will totally make beef jerky all the time"
[00:44]<Quantos> Still not entirely sure what they're used for
[00:45]<@BC_Programming> lol
[00:45]<@BC_Programming> those things they put in the CPU socket when shipping a motherboard?
[00:45]<Quantos> You know, since everything is manufactured to industry standard measurements
[00:45]<Quantos> No, I'll take a picture of a couple for you
[00:46]<@BC_Programming> Oh just googled, isn't that for older chips with exposed dies? before the heat spreader?
[00:47]<@BC_Programming> Also a few days ago I bought a fountain pen and spme ink. Why? I dunno
[00:47]<@BC_Programming> (some* ink, that wasn't a misspelling of sperm ink, that would be a different think entirely)
[00:56]<Quantos> https://imgur.com/E9ELYa6
[00:57]<Quantos> I'm not sure if they'd be good for that, they're made of copper and would conduct electricity really well
[00:57]<Quantos> I think the shims that they used for that purpose were thermally conductive but not electrically conductive
[00:59]<Quantos> And I suspect that they may be hand made, it took about three months for them to arrive from China with Express Shipping
[00:59]<Quantos> By the time they arrived I'd forgotten that I'd ordered them
[01:00]<Quantos> Unless those dies were manufactured differently, maybe they could use copper
[01:02]<Quantos> The pictures I'm seeing on Google actually look like they're made of cu as well
[01:04]<Quantos> CPU shims are not common at all in OEM computers, but are used by some computer hardware enthusiasts who may use heavier heatsinks because they wish to have a cooler or less noisy system or perhaps to overclock the CPU for better performance. A heavy heatsink puts more pressure on the CPU and motherboard. Shims are very useful for people who often change CPU, heatsink and/or cooling solutions, or use a heatsink that is heavier than the
[01:04]<Quantos> CPU manufacturer's recommended weight.
[01:08]<Quantos> Let's see, he's measuring this for a shim - to protect the CPU - am I the only one that sees an issue with his technique?
