00:08 katsmeow-afk looks like my scheme to make tubes from sheet will make a 20" tube as the smallest
00:08 katsmeow-afk i was hoping for half that
00:11 katsmeow-afk i could make the center roller mount adjustable, but it would sacrifice strength and drive ability
00:12 katsmeow-afk or make 2 different center rollers, #1 as planned, #2 for real thin stuff and tight curls
00:39 e_house buckles over laughing setting up the hacker mac
00:46 katsmeow-afk yeas?
00:47 katsmeow-afk TIL that silicone spray makes some bugs fly *less* well
00:48 katsmeow-afk and, it makes them fly less well much much faster than "flying bug spray"

01:07 katsmeow-afk (google believes i am in Germany

12:44 katsmeow-afk Like many viruses, measles is known to suppress the immune system for a few weeks after an infection. But previous studies in monkeys have suggested that measles takes this suppression to a whole new level: It erases immune protection to other diseases,
12:44 katsmeow-afk say you get the chicken pox when you're 4 years old. Your immune system figures out how to fight it. So you don't get it again.
12:44 katsmeow-afk But if you get measles when you're 5 years old, it could wipe out the memory of how to beat back the chicken pox. It's like the immune system has amnesia,
12:48 katsmeow-afk in related news......
12:48 katsmeow-afk May 8, 2015 � Ebola put the country's immunization program on pause. Now officials are launching a nationwide vaccination campaign to stop the largest measles outbreak the country has seen in years.
13:55 katsmeow-afk i just thought of a way to keep one's self awake
13:56 katsmeow-afk using a 1/8 nitride drill bit and a high-rpm cordless drill
13:56 katsmeow-afk drill a hole
13:56 katsmeow-afk in your foot
13:57 katsmeow-afk i believe this would work, based on once pouring molten steel into my shoe,
13:57 katsmeow-afk which i was wearing at the time
13:57 katsmeow-afk for a moment or two, it focussed my attention
13:58 katsmeow-afk on a small portion of my foot
13:59 katsmeow-afk having a #8 nail driven thru one board, thru my foot, and into the board i was standing on,
13:59 katsmeow-afk making a foot sammich tween two boards,
14:00 katsmeow-afk gave me the desire to announce the event had occured
14:00 katsmeow-afk altho i don't recall any human giving a damn about the predicament
14:46 katsmeow-afk how to stop ocean waves from enterng a bay: aim a teleporter beam across the bay at the level you want the water to be
14:47 katsmeow-afk you then reform the water as saturated clouds off California, and reform the salt as cubes in the local grocery superstore
15:03 katsmeow-afk this is stupid : for lunch, i drank an enrgy shake, a smmich, 400mg caffine, vitamn B complex, and 2 large cayene capsules..... and i cold lay down and sleep for an hour *now*, but *not last night*
17:22 katsmeow-afk neighbor is at it again
17:22 katsmeow-afk called the powerco and had the shaded globe over the light on the pole replaced with clear, so it will light up my place and blind me
17:23 katsmeow-afk i went to town, talked to powerco, they will be back out to put the shaded one up again tomorrow
17:24 katsmeow-afk i passed the sherriff deputy on the way to the powerco, and on the way back home, so she called , had them come out, and made some complaint against me
17:27 katsmeow-afk it's always a ie, i never know what the hell her dreams about me are until we are in court again
17:27 katsmeow-afk but i need to take her to court over this, else she will have no end of lights aimed at me
20:27 tsmeow-afk did not expect that ending for "ex mach
21:35 katsmeow-afk rue, can you print *soft* gears, or soft covering for hard gears, to replace the noisey gears in a common servo?
21:36 Tom_itx i doubt the res is that good
21:36 katsmeow-afk drat
21:38 katsmeow-afk Ford made a plastic covering for steel timing chain sprockets, it would actually last 100,000 miles
21:39 katsmeow-afk near as i can tell, they removed 1/8 from all surfaces of the steel sprocket, and cast the material back as plastic
21:40 Tom_itx cheby did too
21:44 katsmeow-afk even using the smallest of fast servos, to get full facial expreccions on a human face a robot would need a head-full of servos, and that might be so noisey they can't hear anything
21:44 katsmeow-afk the servos could be remoted, but that will add tons of friction and slop, and need ore power to drive
21:46 katsmeow-afk "i'm sorry, i didn't hear what you said, i was blinking"
22:04 katsmeow-afk however, the larger shrimp boats that were washed into the surrounding woods by the flood waters still remain there today.
22:05 katsmeow-afk In 2005, Steiner Ship Yard was asked by Walt Disney Studios to build a pirate ship, the Black Pearl; the pitch-black ship was actually a huge wooden prop built on top of a modern 96-foot-long steel utility boat.
