01:11 rue_mohr .... . .-.. .-.. --- -.- .- -
01:12 katsmeow i don't speak morse
01:12 rue_mohr but... but...
01:13 rue_mohr -... ..- - .-.-.- .-.-.- .-.-.-
01:21 katsmeow i need to afk to flip thelasanga and fishing putting groceries in fridge, brb
01:21 rue_mohr ok
01:28 katsmeow bak
01:46 rue_mohr rue_shop3, solder wires to motors, switches, and leds for tommorow
01:48 katsmeow rue_shop3 asked me to ask you why
02:24 katsmeow ...
09:03 Tom_itx rue_bed, put a rocket stove on your heat plant
09:05 Tom_itx https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_stove
09:05 Tom_itx more efficient
09:06 Tom_itx https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_stove#/media/File:Rocket_stove_water_heater.jpg
09:08 Tom_itx It's very much the same principal as an EPA wood stove. When the firebox is up to temp, the secondaries kick in and compuste the wood gas.
09:08 Tom_itx ...also no creasote build up
11:10 katsmeow-afk For Some Perspective
11:10 katsmeow-afk In a single year, a 100 Liter InStove can save the equivalent of:
11:10 katsmeow-afk 362 Megawatt hours of energy - as much as is contained in 213 barrels of crude oil.
11:11 katsmeow-afk (for those of you who use *one megawatt* of electricity to cook your meal each day)
11:12 katsmeow-afk (that would be a stove or oven drawing 4,167 amps @ 240vac , for an hour per day)
11:13 katsmeow-afk or a slow cooker drawing 1000 amps @ 240vac for 4 hours each day
11:14 katsmeow-afk this one oven buring a handfull of twigs could save you doing that
11:14 katsmeow-afk http://instove.org/60-100-liter-cookstove
11:28 Tom_itx good example kat
11:32 katsmeow-afk rue already has a downdraft heater,,,, and if i used 10amps@120vac or fans and pumps, the waste heat from those wood be enough to heat my place without burning anything
11:40 Tom_itx is his more/less efficient than this ^^
12:07 katsmeow-afk i dunno
12:07 katsmeow-afk but the hype around such things is incredible
12:08 katsmeow-afk "In a single year, a 100 Liter InStove can save the equivalent of: 362 Megawatt hours of energy "
12:09 katsmeow-afk it would save me more in a year than i use in 10 years , i don't follow that
12:09 katsmeow-afk and a some handfulls of twigs can offset a generator cranking out 175amps@240vac 24-7
12:10 katsmeow-afk the math isn't credible
12:10 Tom_itx all related to efficiency
12:12 katsmeow-afk Tom, with a 175amp 240v stovetop, you will melt the bottom out of the pots they show being used
19:45 rue_mohr back
19:45 rue_mohr maker thing with kids, we used up all 23 wire maze kits
19:45 rue_mohr my reactor is built likea rocket stove
19:46 rue_mohr but its forced convection
19:47 rue_mohr thats the problem with their design, you have to use tiny fuel
19:47 rue_mohr mine is one of those but scaled so that I can use almost normal size wood
19:48 rue_mohr the more surface area on the fuel you have the better, makes a huge difference
19:49 rue_mohr interestingly enough, the smallest one I made had the highest measurable output
20:20 katsmeow-afk my rock exploder worked best with wood smaller than 1x6
20:20 rue_mohr hmm
20:21 katsmeow-afk with pre-chared 1x2 it was incredibly hot, there were glowing shards of rock flying completely over the house
20:21 rue_mohr no fire hazard there! :)
20:22 katsmeow-afk right, the next firing i put up 1/4 inch osb walls arond it, embeeded a few rocks into it
20:22 rue_mohr with $14usd, I can buy enough SG90 servos for 5 wheeled robots, or 20 unreduced, almost useless dc motors
20:23 e_mohr stands at the fork in the
20:25 rue_mohr I'll get the better ones, we have lots of dc mtoors righ now
20:33 katsmeow-afk which reminds me, the price for 12vdc gearmotors with 100 ft-lb torque is on sale for $50
21:31 rue_mohr "COMPUTER!" "WHAAAAAT!? 3*4 is TWELVE 37-12-5 is TWENTY, PLEASE ask something that NOT another STUPID math problem EVEN YOU should be ABLE TO DO IN YOUR HEAD!"
21:31 rue_mohr 8-|
21:33 any28984164 Lee Harvey Oswald is arrested, accused of killing JFK in 1963
21:33 any28984164 NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
21:33 any28984164 Saturday, November 21, 2015, 12:00 PM
21:45 any28984164 hmm, ok, 1^3 = 1^4 = 1
21:46 any28984164 i broke wolfram
21:47 rue_mohr heh
21:51 any28984164 {x > 1, x == y^3, x == z^4} and woldfram gave a extremely cnvoluted expression for y , but said z is simply the 4th root of x
21:51 any28984164 sheesh, i cold have said y is the 3rd root of x too
21:53 rue_mohr sometimes you have to rephrase the question
21:53 rue_mohr thats the largest issue I had with wolfram
21:57 any28984164 my biggest issue is i leave believeability to imagine a wolf getting up to a high enough ramming speed to do much damage to a caribu
21:59 any28984164 i don't think the wolf wold survive either
22:08 any28984164 yea, the ramwolf up here are smaller than in asia, but it's a sight you'll never forget to see a herd of them at full ramming speed going thru a herd of moose!
22:29 rue_mohr hmmm
22:29 rue_mohr I wonder how they came up with the name anyhow
22:30 any28984164 the guy's nick
22:31 any28984164 Wolfram Research, a software company founded by Stephen Wolfram
22:31 any28984164 Wolfram Alpha, an interactive web site
22:31 any28984164 Wolfram Language, the programming language used by Mathematica
22:31 any28984164 Wolfram code, a naming system used for one-dimensional cellular automaton rules by Stephen Wolfram

22:33 any28984164 Wolfram syndrome, also called DIDMOAD (diabetes insipidus, diabetes mellitus, optic atrophy, and deafness), is a rare genetic disorder,........It was first described in four siblings in 1938 by Dr. Don J. Wolfram, M.D.[2][3]
22:34 any28984164 The WFS1 or wolframin gene[7] provides instructions for making the wolframin protein.
22:36 any28984164 fraudulent papers contained approximately 1.5 percent more jargon than unretracted papers.
22:36 any28984164 "Fradulent papers had about 60 more jargon-like words per paper compared to unretracted papers," Markowitz said. "This is a non-trivial amount."
22:37 any28984164 holycowpies, 1.5% = 60 words? that means the rest of the paper suffered from ~4000 regular jargon words
22:46 rue_shop3 oh cool stuff
22:47 rue_shop3 oh wow, I cleaned the goggles and its like they aren't even theres
22:47 rue_shop3 I still cant find the calipers tho
23:10 ^kat^ only thing i got done today was add oil to car, drain radiator, install antifreeze and fresh unused water
23:15 rue_shop3 that will save trouble later
