Back
[00:02:13] <rue_house> hi kat
[00:02:18] <rue_house> I'm back
[00:02:27] <rue_house> but my eyes re snapping shut
[00:02:48] <rue_house> wow, $16
[00:02:57] <rue_house> May not ship to Canada - Read item description or contact seller for shipping
[00:04:44] <katsmeow> well, might be worth asking them
[00:09:26] <rue_house> like all sellers in the usa, they will charge more than the product is worth to ship to canada
[00:09:40] <rue_house> you get some tho kat
[00:10:28] <rue_house> god I have to stay awake
[00:11:09] <katsmeow> what if you send me an empty box, and i fill it with hdds and mark it "refused" ?
[00:20:00] <rue_house> ooo kat!
[00:20:17] <katsmeow> what?!
[00:20:37] <rue_house> no sig, no tracking?
[00:20:45] <rue_house> how much do I put in your paypal account?
[00:20:48] <katsmeow> i dunno
[00:21:09] <rue_house> $16usd x 2?
[00:21:12] <katsmeow> there's a chance they will refuse it at the border on it's way back to you
[00:21:55] <rue_house> particular shipper?
[00:22:50] <katsmeow> usps
[00:23:10] * katsmeow wonders if rue is actually going to mail an empty box
[00:23:51] <katsmeow> i am sure the usa shipper there in Calif is drop shipping for a company in china, why can't you order from china?
[00:24:52] <katsmeow> the thing #2 is: if it costs $10 to sip it, and they sell it for $16, thent he drive costs $6, and they have aprofit outa that, so they may be paying $3 for the 250GB drives?
[00:25:23] <katsmeow> figure that out, and we can start on the 250TB RAID array
[00:26:29] <rue_house> Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
[00:26:29] <rue_house> /dev/md0 898G 310G 543G 37% /files
[00:26:29] <rue_house> 192.168.9.12:/files/ 178G 110G 59G 66% /morfiles
[00:26:37] <rue_house> those are my two fileservers
[00:26:42] <rue_house> I dont need lots of space
[00:26:56] <katsmeow> oh, making a stupid Ai, eh?
[00:27:03] <rue_house> hu?
[00:27:16] <katsmeow> smarts, data, takes up space
[00:28:03] <rue_house> I beleive the key is in an arch we dont emply, one that mixes data and processing in a way that logistically make no sense
[00:28:43] <katsmeow> k
[00:28:54] <rue_house> and I appologize, I'm literally falling asleep
[00:29:06] <katsmeow> gnites then
[00:29:28] <katsmeow> i *know* i have 2 320's that need replacing asap
[00:29:34] <katsmeow> i know i have a 160 boot that's dead and one that needs replacing
[00:29:46] <katsmeow> and i need to clean off 100G from each of two puters
[00:31:29] <katsmeow> one of the 320's bangs heads when writing certain places
[00:31:46] <katsmeow> hardware ECC numbers are in 6 digits
[00:33:37] <rue_house> kat@designer*?
[00:33:42] <rue_house> paypal?
[00:34:13] <katsmeow> tell me what you are planning first
[00:34:22] <rue_house> ITS HARD TO DO THINGS WHEN YOUER EYES KEEP CLOSING
[00:34:35] <katsmeow> email me tomorrow
[00:34:45] <rue_house> I dont know, if you have the drives were half way there right
[00:34:46] <rue_house> ?
[00:34:46] <katsmeow> i don't wanna lose the drives in the mail to you
[00:35:03] <rue_house> I might be willing to risk it
[00:35:08] <katsmeow> i just ordered 6 for me a few hrs ago
[00:35:26] <rue_house> ok, want to tel me how they werk out firsT?
[00:35:50] <rue_house> I'm not gonna have enough energy to do anything before I go to sleep
[00:36:19] <katsmeow> k
[00:36:30] <katsmeow> delivery date is next week
[00:36:45] <katsmeow> i am emptying the noisey banging 320G drive now
[00:36:45] <rue_house> apparently I bought 100pcs of mj13007 quite some time ago
[00:36:50] <rue_house> like to know where they are
[00:37:03] <katsmeow> 600v to-220
[00:37:13] <katsmeow> or 400v, i forget
[00:37:22] <rue_house> good saturation votlage iirc
[00:37:29] <rue_house> at descent gain
[00:37:57] <katsmeow> poor gain over 5amps or so, you gotta drive them HARD to get saturation
[00:38:19] <rue_house> I just want 2A
[00:38:23] <rue_house> right now
[00:38:45] <rue_house> I got some L1990H, 800mA, but its not enough
[00:39:19] <rue_house> I forgot about the AOP605
[00:39:24] <katsmeow> maybe i was looking at the 13009
[00:39:31] <katsmeow> i loked at something today
[00:40:03] <rue_house> oh 6A
[00:40:12] <rue_house> what did you look at
[00:40:31] <rue_house> would you like to look at things from here?
[00:40:38] <katsmeow> i thought i looked at the mj13007
[00:40:49] <katsmeow> my brain is off now, it's after midnite here
[00:41:03] <rue_house> yea
[00:41:08] <rue_house> I too
[00:41:23] <rue_house> I need 8 2A drivers on a small baord
[00:41:27] <rue_house> for dc motors
[00:41:45] <rue_house> 8 pin dip /sip
[00:42:20] <katsmeow> you can get 100 of some TIP transistors for $16 , free s&h from china
[00:42:58] <rue_house> I suppose 4 to-220 in a row is 12.. no that dosn't work
[00:43:33] <katsmeow> irfz44/irf1404 prices have fallen
[00:43:57] <rue_house> 8 pin sip...
[00:44:11] <katsmeow> 2amps from a sip?
[00:44:25] <rue_house> can be a diy sip
[00:44:36] <katsmeow> i think the irf/irfz has a sip package
[00:44:59] <katsmeow> but sips have practically zero power dissipation
[00:45:27] <rue_house> so I should make the bridge on it from fets
[00:45:58] <rue_house> http://www.digikey.ca/product-detail/en/on-semiconductor/CPH3455-TL-W/CPH3455-TL-WOSCT-ND/5761667
[00:47:41] <katsmeow> 60 cents each?? freaking ouch, and you CANNOT have any voltage drop accross those at 2amps, 2v@2a = 4w , they'll smoke
[00:48:51] <katsmeow> at 104mohm, 2amp saturated is still .4w, they'll still smoke
[00:50:16] <rue_house> k..
[00:51:11] <rue_house> http://www.digikey.ca/product-detail/en/vishay-siliconix/SI2318DS-T1-E3/SI2318DS-T1-E3CT-ND/1656848
[00:51:49] <katsmeow> i cannot design stuff after midnite, my brain is off
[00:52:01] <rue_house> yea
[00:52:14] <rue_house> I refiltered based on what you said
[00:53:37] <rue_house> http://www.aliexpress.com/item/SI2318DS-SOT23-3-Vishay-Siliconix-freeshipping/386515232.html
[00:53:49] <rue_house> hmm
[00:55:13] <katsmeow> cusswords, i still have not had dinner or gottent eh clothes uta the washer
[00:55:33] <katsmeow> got distracted saving data off the bad hdd
[20:46:23] <zhanx> Well it's official I am 40
[20:48:40] <idonob> zhanx: happy birthday?
[20:49:49] <zhanx> Yep got a fire and beer. Worked on the robotic arm some so good day (yesterday I was my real birthday but who does the Thursday thing)
[20:51:36] <zhanx> I decided to mount my robot arm on a rail on the ceiling
[20:52:00] <idonob> I have no prior context on this project, but that sounds pretty awesome!
[20:52:05] <zhanx> Instead of desk mounted
[20:52:22] <zhanx> Idonob, it's a work in progress
[20:53:21] <idonob> the beer or the robotic arm? ;)
[20:53:34] <zhanx> Both of course
[20:53:54] <idonob> nice
[20:54:06] <idonob> how big is it anyhow?
[20:54:15] <zhanx> 4 foot long
[20:54:41] <zhanx> 7 dof well 8 of I put it on a track
[20:54:49] <idonob> dang, that's pretty massive
[20:55:05] <idonob> must weigh a good bit
[20:55:16] <zhanx> It's an xray machine arm thing from a hospital
[20:55:25] <zhanx> Minus the end of it
[20:55:36] <zhanx> I wish I got the xray part
[20:55:52] <idonob> Ah, salvaged and not home-built then?
[20:56:12] <zhanx> Well the arm is spring loaded , I am changing that
[20:56:14] <idonob> that's a pretty sweet find, with or without the xray
[20:56:34] <zhanx> I know right
[20:56:37] <idonob> salvaged is always a nie starting point to run from
[20:56:40] <idonob> nice*
[20:57:18] <zhanx> I am using salvaged motors etc all free so far
[20:58:58] <idonob> that sounds like it must be pretty satisfying
