00:21 ^kat^ you get a paypal reciept of payment, that should be your official purchase list

00:36 rue_house none of which will match up with the purchase price
00:38 at^
01:23 ^kat^ so a flat steel table, a couple of grooves in it, with pins i can adjust in certain ways with allthread
01:23 ^kat^ a 1/2 inch steel mill bit sticks up out of the hole
01:24 ^kat^ there's an adjustable guide rail, and a motor-driven allthread pusher, and assorted hold-downs
01:25 ^kat^ so i put in a piece of metal, adjust it all, turn it on, and the piece is slid into and by the mill bit, edging it
01:25 ^kat^ then i flip the metal piece over, adjust again, and slide it past/into the bit again
01:26 ^kat^ presto it's perfectly edged?
01:26 ^kat^ and straight?

13:33 any29477193 cute framework!
13:37 any29477193 it willnever be allowed in the usa, all the slag and flux dropping into the water below would kill the project
13:38 Tom_itx park a barge under it
13:38 any29477193 i wonder why he isn't using a few appropriately sized regular steel sections, and welding them together as they go
13:39 any29477193 pure additive uses a ton of power, essentially every piece of the bridge is melted the way he's doing it, so is the surface of every part he is attaching a new molten drop to
13:41 any29477193 per welder, he is talking ~$1000 power bill for the 2 months, and he's using 4 welders
13:41 Tom_itx all steel structures were melted at one point or anohter
13:42 any29477193 true, but if the first time it was melted, it was extruded in plat and angle and channel, and sent out to the robot in 2ft or 10ft sections, it's a huge savings onsite
14:10 y29477193 is pondering making a small air conditioned and heated shed in the livingroom, with fanned air ducts to the out
14:11 any29477193 a place to make dirty-dusty noise inside, AND be cooled/heated
14:12 any29477193 true i can drill holes in the baby drill press down here, but i can't beltsand or arcweld or grind or mix smelly chemicals, because there's no fans allowed, and i sleep down here
14:13 y29477193 goes up to examine the "den"
14:14 any29477193 i have steel outside with big rust spots where i been sweating on it, and i can't make noise at nite outside, cannot arc weld anywhere inside but the bathroom upstairs, and can't ac/heat it
14:43 any29477193 it's all too much work to do that when i am not staying here, and not the right way to do things if i do stay here
14:51 any29477193 AAA cell, but 1 inch long, it's putting out 12.6v
14:55 any29477193 how to cram more bubblewrap into package : pop all the bubbles first

15:04 any29477193 tiny wireless serial ports, tiny wireless parports, tiny wireless usb ports (hmm no), but the wireless wifi port is wireless!
15:07 any29477193 they even have a universal diy interposer adapter to change pinout spacing, you just scissor off the parts you don't need
15:11 any29477193 "3 Use a 3.3V controller, otherwise the display could be quite vague." <<== not quite sure what they mean there
15:12 any29477193 "Power supply voltage:2.7V-3.3V,5V is OK,but part of the screen becomes black when tested "
15:18 any29477193 480vac , but all of screen become black when tested
15:19 Tom_itx http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com//2015/06/18/f-c-c-votes-to-move-forward-with-plan-to-subsidize-broadband-for-poor-americans/
15:19 any29477193 i think that means in subsidized housing with one-parent kids
15:20 any29477193 is a boat a "barge" if it is a square platform(s) on round pontoon(s) ?
15:21 any29477193 or only if it is one-piece cube?
15:22 any29477193 the phone subsidy <<== i do not qualify, but there are $5/mo unsubsidized phone plans out there (free phone)

17:20 any29477193 went upstairs to look at motor nameplates, it was too strenuous, i was soon leaking salt water all over them, and my hair is as if i was in a shower
17:29 any29477193 �Most people are so mind-bogglingly aggravating that it's impossible to overreact to them, even if that means killing yourself.�
17:29 any29477193 ? Maija Haavisto, The Atlas Moth
17:32 any29477193 �Of course, I'm not quite ready to forsake all the products of society, just yet. I have my clothes, my books, etc... But more and more I can see myself leaving much of the rest behind - leaving their makers, and the crucible from which they proceed. If at times, after all, I might benefit by the rays of the sun, must I seek also to reside in its nuclear core?�
17:36 any29477193 �Those who believe in telekinetics, raise my hand.�
17:36 any29477193 ? Kurt Vonnegut
17:36 any29477193 �For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much�the wheel, New York, wars and so on�whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time.
17:36 any29477193 But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man�for precisely the same reasons.�
17:36 any29477193 ? Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
17:37 any29477193 �Illegal aliens have always been a problem in the United States. Ask any Indian.�
17:37 any29477193 ? Robert Orben
17:42 any29477193 so i tweaked the bit side to side a bit, and pulling hard, removed the bearing from it's shank
17:42 any29477193 today i learned a new mill bit can shred the skin on your fingers, with no motor running
17:43 any29477193 but i got it back, i sweated all over it
20:56 any29477193 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Electronic-components-Ordering-Orders-Customize-Not-fixed-Order-1954-/291103419743
22:31 any29477193 20 pcs for $6 ( 30 cents each) ..... 200 pcs for $17 ( 8.5 cents each)
22:34 any29477193 .15R 3w ,, because .15 * 4amp = .6v ,,, and .6v * 4amp = 2.4w
22:35 any29477193 i need 20, so it boils down to 40pcs for $12 vs 200 pcs for $17 ,, that's why i will have 200 of them, instead of none of them
22:35 any29477193 err,, 200-20=180 of them left

23:52 any29477193 The Sprint accelerated at 100 g, reaching a speed of Mach 10 in 5 seconds.[1][2] It was designed for close-in defense against incoming nuclear weapons.
23:53 any29477193 The first stage was exhausted after only 1.2 seconds, but produced 2,900 kN (650,000 lbf) of thrust. The second stage fired within 1 � 2 seconds of launch. Interception at an altitude of 1,500 m to 30,000 m took at most 15 seconds.
