10:37 <@Dagmar> Evilpig: Still supports SNMPv2 tho', right?
10:59 < Evilpig> yes
10:59 < Evilpig> and 1
10:59 < Evilpig> just pointed out v3 because someone asked about it the other day and claimed it didn't work so I reconfigured that switch to do v3
11:31 <@Mirage> New season started, so once again I have to wonder at the finances of The Curse of Oak Island.  
11:44 < Evilpig> no joke there
11:44 < Evilpig> but hey they found a couple of maybe coins 
11:44 <@Dagmar> It's a documentary, is it not?
11:44 <@Dagmar> It's not like those need a large budget for SFX
11:53 < Evilpig> their budget is all in mining equipment and this one contractor that is doing some heavy construction underground
11:53 < aestetix> not sure if any of you are into this
11:53 < aestetix> but talos principle 2 is fucking awesome
12:45 < Evilpig> my dad just texted me and said "see if there is software to support these. a client wants to give them to me for new shop"  The attached picture is a grey box that reads "intellex dvms dv16000"
12:53 <@Dagmar> Well, they probably don't support zoomhancing around corners
12:57 < aestetix> man
12:57 < aestetix> the new rick and morty is fucked up
12:57 < aestetix> even for them

13:18 < Evilpig> bah.  need pads and rotars on the truck and they're suggesting I go ahead and replace the bearings too.  $700
13:18 < Evilpig> not sure how I got to metal on metal there.  haven't heard the squealers at all
13:28 <@Dagmar> Loud rock music
13:28 <@Dagmar> If the boots aren't damaged I wouldn't even bother with the mess of repacking bearings
13:29 <@Dagmar> I would look at hte rotors myself before I'd let them be replaced tho
13:29 <@Dagmar> There's a shitton of safety margin built into the damn things so unless they're exceptionally grooved or worn thin as lace they're probably still within spec
13:31 <@Dagmar> On MANY occasions I've seen places try to tell me I "needed" to replace the rotors, and in at least two of those cases the rotors were less than a fuckin' year old
13:31 <@Dagmar> ...because they were replaced because the old ones were heavily pitted due to exposure to dog urint
13:31 <@Dagmar> Fuckers just looked at the car, then looked at me, and figured they'd take a shot like I would know any better
13:32 < Evilpig> the sound I heard come out of them told me I was likely digging into the rotor yesterday,  I figured that might be the case
13:32 <@Dagmar> Sure but you have to be doing that for awhile for it to be a serious issue
13:33 <@Dagmar> There'll be a minimum thickness that's usually stamped on the rotor somewhere.  If you get below that, then it's time to replace them
13:33 < Evilpig> the bearings on that I would bet haven't been lubed properly.  the dude I got the truck from did some half ass repairs so I bet he did his own rotations and didn't bother when he put the oilers back on
13:33 <@Dagmar> If they're still that thick and the only thing out of spec is a minor groove then fuck it
13:33 < aestetix> huh
13:33 < aestetix> why is there a new Beetlejuice movie coming out
13:34 < Evilpig> because the musical got alot of press
13:34 < aestetix> I didn't know there was a musical
13:34 <@Dagmar> "Turning" rotors (which amounts to sanding the fuckers) is also a thing but places don't like to do it because the profit in installing a brand new rotor is way higher htan something that requires equipment and half a man hour
13:34 < aestetix> then again Tim Burton IMHO has kind of fallen from grace
13:34 <@Dagmar> Evilpig: Because apparently it's a powerful aphrodesiac to GOP senators
13:34 < Evilpig> that's all on the vape
13:35 < Evilpig> we don't know what was in that thing
13:35 <@Dagmar> Probably her own farts
13:35 < Evilpig> lol
13:37 <@Dagmar> SEriously tho... MOst places will try to convince everyone they need new rotors the second they get to a repair where the tire has to come off
13:37 <@Dagmar> Usually it's bullshit
13:38 <@Dagmar> ...and it's bullshit you can verify with your eyeballs and fingers in like three minutes.  Ten if you take the tire off to get a really good lok
13:39 <@Dagmar> They'd probably be suggesting replacing rims becasue of "micro-fractures" if rims were a wear component
13:39 <@Dagmar> Then again, tire spoons are a motherfucker sometimes
13:49 <@Mirage> If there's no gravelly noises and/or play in the wheels then you don't need bearings either.  
13:51 < Evilpig> there was gravel
13:51 < Evilpig> heard it yesterday morning and knew something was up
13:51 <@Mirage> Of course if the place is disreputable and have already been looking at the it, all they have to do is loosen the nut a bit and it'll look like a bunch of slop from the bearing when all they did is take off the pre-load
13:56 <@Dagmar> You get clicking when moving the car after having turned the wheel all the way to one side or the other?
14:18 < Evilpig> not that i've noticed but I have heard some growling like I need to check the power steering fluid and I keep forgetting
14:18 <@Dagmar> Yeah growling would be the power steering struggling, particularlyt when the wheel is turned hard
14:19 <@Dagmar> A clicking sound roughly once per rotation means you've got a bearing issue
14:19 <@Dagmar> Thankfully power steering fluid problems only require more power steering fluid, and absolutely fuck all happens if you drive the car several thousand miles without any in there
14:23 <@Mirage> Depends on the problem and vehicle.  Also a big difference between a rack and a box.
14:27 <@Mirage> w00t.  FedEx delivered the new rear leaf springs for my pickup. 
14:46 <@Dagmar> This ain't the 1940's
15:51 < Evilpig> truck is happy again.

17:29 <@Mirage> Mine's part-way happy.  Replaced the rear passenger leaf w/o much problem (other than the gas tank being in the way).  Driver side the sleeve in the bushing is fused to the mounting pin and refuses to come off.  At least I didn't tear it up trying to get it off, so I was able to put the old one back on until I can get a new pin.
