22:02 ^kat^ <cough>
22:21 rue_shop3 heys
22:22 ^kat^ mew
22:23 rue_shop3 I'm back home!
22:23 rue_shop3 forever!
22:23 ^kat^ why!
22:23 ^kat^ did yougradulate or burn the place down?
22:23 rue_shop3 school is done
22:24 rue_shop3 I dont think I want to go back, I suspect that I wont come close to making back the $12000ish its set me back
22:24 ^kat^ school is sooooo slow, that's why they call it gradully
22:24 ^kat^ me either
22:24 ^kat^ i sorry
22:24 rue_shop3 unless I start making and selling sex robots, which, really, only has moral blocks
22:24 ^kat^ unless it gets you into some high paying gov job
22:25 rue_shop3 so, if I just push my morals aside, I think I could do it
22:25 rue_shop3 I wont tho
22:25 rue_shop3 I'm just an electrician
22:25 ^kat^ wait, i can make sexbots with moral blocks? won't that sorta kill the industry?
22:25 rue_shop3 not the bots
22:26 rue_shop3 if you WILL make them, do, they will sell
22:26 ^kat^ uhhhh
22:26 rue_shop3 I mean, its just me thats stopping me
22:26 rue_shop3 if it can make lots of money, why not do it?
22:26 ^kat^ because some parts are real "hands on"
22:27 ^kat^ if you must make it to fit the customer <shudder>
22:27 ^kat^ or repair it <shudder>
22:27 rue_shop3 dont have to get into any of that
22:27 ^kat^ or clean it out <SHUDDER>
22:27 rue_shop3 some guys will screw anything, really
22:28 ^kat^ well, let them do that then
22:28 rue_shop3 it could be the end of the human race tho
22:28 rue_shop3 meh
22:28 ^kat^ i wouldn't mind the race ending
22:29 rue_shop3 imagine that, I cleaned the finger oil off the print bed, and the print dosn't peel up anymore
22:29 ^kat^ o
22:30 rue_shop3 3d printer)
22:30 ^kat^ i figured
22:30 Tom_itx u r the culprit!
22:30 at^ is not intarly steeo
22:31 rue_shop3 of ending the human race?
22:31 ^kat^ really? congrats than thatnks!
22:31 Tom_itx it's not a race if nobody's ahead
22:31 at^ does a happy d
22:33 rue_shop3 kat, the rf listener, do you know how I could convert that much of a freq range?
22:34 rue_shop3 I was thinking a gang of mixers, but I dont think thats easy cause you cant do more than about 2:1 with each?
22:34 ^kat^ NE812 driving a pll that's driving a 555
22:35 rue_shop3 812?
22:35 ^kat^ rf vco 8 pin
22:35 rue_shop3 ooooh
22:35 ^kat^ was 802, till they "quit making them"
22:35 rue_shop3 but, then you could only get the strongest freq
22:35 ^kat^ really, they just made them better and had to name them something else
22:35 rue_shop3 I'd like to downcnvert the whole range all at once
22:35 ^kat^ oh,more than one freq?
22:36 ^kat^ not possible, unless you ,,, no, not possible with a single unit of anything at rf freqs
22:36 rue_shop3 what did I say, something like 500Mhz to 1Mhz -> 15khz -> 30hz
22:36 ^kat^ yeas
22:37 ^kat^ see, different multipliers and scales
22:37 rue_shop3 yea
22:40 ^kat^ you may not be able to distinguish 20 audio freqs at one time anyhow
22:40 ^kat^ so you need only 20 tracking downconverters
22:41 rue_shop3 how many freqs can you hear at once?
22:41 ^kat^ i have no clue
22:41 rue_shop3 I wonder what the freq resolution is of the human ear
22:42 ^kat^ most people cannot prolly hear absolutes , onl;y difefrences in pitches
22:43 rue_shop3 maybe thats a clue
22:46 rue_shop3 I wonder how fast audio nerves can refire
22:46 rue_shop3 its all pfm you know
22:46 at^ hands it to rue and asks him to use it wi
22:47 ^kat^ basically, as fast as you can hear
22:47 ^kat^ pain nerves are the slowest
22:47 ^kat^ but they wold be, being C-aferent and demylenated
22:47 rue_shop3 thats cause pain is when the signal is saturated, and the recievers cant account for the gain anymore
22:47 rue_shop3 its pfm, the recievers have agc
22:48 ^kat^ errrr,, ,, umm,, not in the ear so much
22:48 rue_shop3 when you shake, its cause the signals are too weak and the agc starts picking up noise
22:49 rue_shop3 8-| uh, was it ok to let you know that?
22:49 ^kat^ your brain actually feeds signal back to the ear out of phase, to cancel some incomng at the cochlear fiber level, so they don't get broken so much
22:49 ^kat^ it's ok, i can't process anyting atm anyhow
22:54 ^kat^ english is difficult. it can be understood through tough thorough thought though.
22:58 rue_house ;)
22:58 rue_house arg, it seems my 14 year old computer speakers need new caps
22:58 rue_house did you play that song to see if it was of interest?
22:59 ^kat^ song,, techie song, i wasn't listening to music today
22:59 ^kat^ or watcing movies
23:00 rue_house start the superstructure?
23:01 ^kat^ of what?
23:01 rue_house the ship! :)
23:01 rue_house ?
23:01 rue_house ...
23:01 ^kat^ oh, no
23:02 rue_house isn't that whats next?
23:02 ^kat^ i wanna get the pod legs and barrels clamps done
23:02 ^kat^ so i can get them painted before winter
23:02 rue_house k
23:03 rue_house could it be painted in the water?
23:03 ^kat^ paint wouldn't dry before it froze
23:04 rue_house I meant next year
23:04 rue_house if you get it in the water, do things like paint later?
23:05 ^kat^ nope
23:05 ^kat^ so i need to paint the stuff that's low, in the water, first, and i haeto build it firsat to do that
23:11 rue_house two materials, one with a deficit of electrons and one with a surplus, seperated by a barrier that maintains a potential between the two yet does not allow the elecrons to pass thru it
23:14 rue_house in any given cubic meter of deep space, how many watts of light do you think are passing thru it?
23:14 rue_house at once
23:14 ^kat^ you descripbed a capacitor
23:15 ^kat^ varies tremendously
23:15 rue_shop3 so what if I said ions could pass thru the barrier?
23:16 ^kat^ can't, if it prohibits electrons passing, then how can bigger ions transfer?
23:17 rue_shop3 how about cations?
23:17 rue_shop3 cautions?
23:17 rue_shop3 cations...
23:17 ^kat^ i dunno
23:21 rue_shop3 oh drat, I'm falling asleep
23:21 ^kat^ you teacing school tomorrow?
23:21 rue_shop3 no
23:21 rue_shop3 next weekend
