00:42 rue_house kat, do you like novels?
00:43 katsmeow-afk i did, but have no time to sit arond and read
00:43 katsmeow-afk i downloaded two books on Lua last week, have not read them yet
00:44 katsmeow-afk i have about 35feet of bookshelf space, full
00:46 rue_house how often you check your email?
00:47 katsmeow-afk at least every 4 hrs, even when sleeping, if i am awake i check it maybe every 10 min, 30 min
00:48 katsmeow-afk interested
00:51 rue_house hmm
00:51 rue_house I only get these in peices :(
00:54 katsmeow-afk i need to go put my feets up, outa thse shoes, etc,, prolly take a nap
00:57 rue_house dont use an old one, make a new nap
02:40 rue_house I wrote a lot more, it gets a little bit gory, do you think your interested?
02:45 rue_house the goryism is brief
10:52 tsmeow-afk sstttrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetttcchh
11:19 tsmeow-afk ponders Susan Dey naming a kid Tuh,, and then calling the kid to dinner "Tuh Dey! Tuh D
11:22 katsmeow-afk sorry, was listening to a America album from 1971, i remember making fun of them unable to say "i need you", they clearly were singing "i knee Jew" on 331/3rpm analog LP, well, my ears still hear them singing it on digital
11:25 katsmeow-afk rue, i didn't read yet, still wakening, but to clarify, i tend to zoom past scenes of carnage in Terminator, etc, and took me years before i watched Hal with the camera glowing red and killing off the space ship crew, it just seemed irrelavant to the plot of going to Saturn
11:28 katsmeow-afk i saw America in concert, it was a lil wierd seeing Billy Mumy from Lost in Space on stage singing without the Robot there too
11:28 katsmeow-afk "open the pod bay doors, Hal"
11:28 katsmeow-afk "Sorry Dave, i cannot do that"
11:29 katsmeow-afk later....
11:29 katsmeow-afk "reapply power, Dave"
11:29 katsmeow-afk "Sorry Hal, i cannot do that"
11:29 katsmeow-afk why must it always be about killing?
12:22 katsmeow-afk i wrote a shortie about someone in Steven Hawkings situation, but set in the future, where a Ai he wore could do everything he couldn't, except it couldn't walk and do everything, so he still sat while doing Spock's job.
12:24 katsmeow-afk in the shortie, the ship had some emergency and everyone was knocked out, the Ai took over in the absence of the human's input, and did the basic procedures needed to save people
12:24 katsmeow-afk instead of killing them and taking over the ship
13:15 katsmeow-afk This footage is an excerpt from "Chasing Ice," an award-winning documentary on climate change. On May 28, 2008, Adam LeWinter and director Jeff Orlowski filmed a historic breakup at the Ilulissat Glacier in western Greenland.
13:16 katsmeow-afk The calving event lasted 75 minutes, and the glacier retreated a full mile across a calving face 3 miles wide. The height of the ice is about 3,000 feet � 300 to 400 feet above water, with the rest below water.
13:38 katsmeow-afk Recent large calving events where the glacier produces icebergs have also been found to trigger earthquakes due to the icebergs scraping the bottom of the fjord.
13:39 tsmeow-afk ponders an ice cube 3 miles wide and 3000ft t
15:39 katsmeow-afk my chosen fabric for an evaporator is indeed wonderful stuff
15:41 katsmeow-afk i got enough to make 900 sq ft of surface area for $12
15:41 katsmeow-afk or a 30x30ft area
15:42 katsmeow-afk 640ft of condenser area will cost ~$100
15:43 katsmeow-afk plus custom water connectors to the condensor panels
15:46 katsmeow-afk this really does scream for integration to the fridge and air conditioner
15:48 katsmeow-afk both can heat the evaporator water 24-7, and the cold water off the a/c can cool the condensor plates, and the fridge-a/c evaporator water cooling beats air cooling any day
16:21 katsmeow-afk the time is now: forp EM
19:21 rue_house I'm coughing up a lung

22:10 rue_shop3 I dont know
22:10 rue_shop3 oh, bad news, the rad in the house for the boiler system is leaking
22:11 rue_shop3 I was in the crawl space and found pools/dripping
22:11 katsmeow-afk ouch
22:11 katsmeow-afk there goes your antifreeze budget
22:11 rue_shop3 there is almost none left in there anyhow
22:11 tsmeow-afk hands rue a $20 kiddie pool and a water float switch to put under the fur
22:12 katsmeow-afk this is why i am so interested in using those corregated plastic panels, they won't corrode, at least not like metals
22:13 rue_shop3 last time it was my joints, flooded the subfloor
22:14 katsmeow-afk what if i told you how to make a radiator from those panels, that won't leak, but won't take any pressure to speak of, and i dunno how hot they can take
22:15 katsmeow-afk and the radiator is huge because plastic doesn't conduct heat well
22:15 katsmeow-afk brb, ggt
22:16 rue_shop3 heh
22:18 katsmeow-afk bak
22:18 katsmeow-afk so i think you'll need to put it in the basement, run duct to it, and run it at zero pressure
22:19 katsmeow-afk or, if you like soldering, make your own corregated with roofing tin
22:29 rue_shop3 I prolyl just have to tighten up a joint
22:29 rue_shop3 the adapters to get form the rad to the 3/4" pex were screwie
22:30 katsmeow-afk ihas a design for an exchager with roofing flashing, but it's got small passages, tought to push much air thru as you need to heat a trailer

23:52 rue_shop3 even if they did, the border would add $50 for customs to just *look* at it
23:53 rue_shop3 "we saw your package, give us $50 or its now our package"
23:53 katsmeow-afk not if you sent the mecha across the imaginary line thru the woods to retrieveit
