00:20 rue_house different times I get into different things
00:20 rue_house I havn't etched a board in over a year
00:20 rue_house written lots of software tho
00:23 katsmeow "It is estimated, by the year 2000, one percent of our farms will control over half our food supplies." good to know the internets are up to date
00:25 rue_house heh, by the year 2000, there will be so few large farms left, that they will have to produce over half our food supplies
00:32 katsmeow what is the dolphin on a kids's website doing?? http://www.rain.org/campinternet/channelhistory/images/dolphin_tread_md_clr.gif
00:33 rue_house something I'm sure it finds pleasing
00:40 katsmeow tis amazing how my pleasure a lil epoxy can give, when it's placed tween the two parts of a childproof cap and left to harden overnight
00:40 katsmeow isss after midnite, my biran is off
00:41 katsmeow 10 minute snak neds nuking
00:44 rue_house hmm what cha molding?
00:54 katsmeow molding? noting, just defeating the childproofness of th ecap with zero chnage to it's appearance
02:03 rue_house what angle do I point a light to cancel out the morning sun?
19:20 rue_house huf
19:20 any09109744 fuh
19:21 rue_house after I wake up
19:21 rue_house I hope to work my way down to the wrist of the mecha
19:21 Tom_itx but you are awake!
19:21 rue_house I pan to use a hollow "bead" for the 2 axis wrist joint, see how that goes
19:22 any09109744 down to the wrist, from the fingers?
19:22 rue_house not for long
19:22 rue_house right now I'm at the bone between the knuckle and the wrist
19:22 any09109744 not really a need for bones there in a robot
19:23 Tom_itx i was at the local vo tech couple days ago
19:23 rue_house the two of them (only 2 fingers) hinge against each other, so the hand can cup
19:23 Tom_itx lookin over some of their printed parts
19:23 Tom_itx the instructor is printing a quad
19:23 any09109744 pervert
19:23 Tom_itx ?
19:24 y09109744 looks for z
19:24 any09109744 nm
19:24 rue_house printing quads works because of the foamy-light nature of the plastic
19:24 any09109744 so does drilling sch20 pvc full of holes
19:24 Tom_itx he was showing the fan he printed
19:25 any09109744 or, making tube of cellophane and putting spray fome in it to stiffen it
19:25 rue_house resin printer?
19:25 rue_house kat, much smaller copters
19:25 Tom_itx i'm not sure, i didn't see it as they were having class
19:25 rue_house about 30cm across
19:25 any09109744 o
19:25 any09109744 o
19:25 rue_house Tom_itx, your supposed to grab a book, sit in the corner and make like your taking notes
19:25 rue_house optionally, take notes
19:25 Tom_itx well i'll have plenty of chances for that
19:26 Tom_itx enrolled the kid in Catia classes
19:26 any09109744 "take notes"? what happened to video logs?
19:26 rue_house I'm not sure how I should be a student at the elec couse I'm going to
19:27 rue_house I wonder if I should take vids rather than taking notes
19:27 rue_house and if I sould use papaer of a laptop
19:27 any09109744 "teacher said this goes here and this goes over here" "what goes thee and where is there?" "idunno, cameras weren't allowed"
19:27 rue_house :)
19:28 any09109744 tiny spy cameras in your hat, pointed all ove the place, laptop recording in your backpack
19:28 any09109744 not to be secret about it, just the smalelr they are, the more you can carry
19:29 Tom_itx https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRrf1hvBBI8
19:29 Tom_itx watched that one last night
19:29 rue_house most laptops have a camera in the screen
19:29 Tom_itx usually pointing the wrong way
19:29 any09109744 pointing your laptop at everything is going to look wierd
19:31 Tom_itx i may get a student copy and play with it a bit
19:32 any09109744 rue, show up with robots that record for you, hanging from the ceilings
19:33 any09109744 i need to go see how the paint is drying
19:33 Tom_itx a sheldon bot
20:12 any09109744 watching paint dry = no fun
20:14 Tom_itx like watching grass grow
20:30 y09109744 growels at the ways things ares nevers the sames s
20:40 Tom_itx what? you want one size fitz all?
20:47 any09109744 nanoscale resizing
20:48 any09109744 i just mic'd some pvc and cpvc, and compared my readings to charts online, we disagree
20:49 any09109744 and the ring on the bottom of Homer buckets(tm) is 1.5 ID, practically screams "cut me here", but there's not plastic pipe that fits 1.5 holes
20:50 any09109744 the OD of that ring is 1.65 , meaning the ID of 1.5 sch40 pvc won't fit over it because it's 1.62
20:50 any09109744 the next size up is 2" pipe, and that's 2.05 ID
20:51 any09109744 soooooooo
20:51 any09109744 i need to cut much smaller, toss the 2 dozen buckets i already cut holes in, or come up with anotehr scheme
20:56 any09109744 "Velocities between 7 to 10 feet per second are common. In general velocities above 5 feet per second should be avoided. " huh?
21:26 any09109744 "Waves manifest themselves by curved undulations" and uncurved dulations?
21:44 y09109744 imagines a wave that keeps curling, and never uncurling, eventually looking the opposite of a melty clock pain
