10:34 PM zhanx: pharmacies are no joke here tho, too many meth heads
10:35 PM Tom_L: that's getting bad everywhere
10:35 PM rue_shop3: aparently there are a lot of people here doing coc and stuff
10:36 PM zhanx: last time i swapped a printer at one i had to wait on my NDA and background check to be called in

10:36 PM zhanx: coke, meth, mda
10:36 PM zhanx: maybe more
10:36 PM rue_shop3: mmmm
10:36 PM rue_shop3: damn, I'm losing words like crazy
10:36 PM rue_shop3: I want an aztimers test
10:37 PM zhanx: Alzheimer test?
10:37 PM zhanx: or you planning to move to AZ time
10:37 PM rue_shop3: ok, two transistors and 3 resistors, then I should have a wifi coffeemaker
10:37 PM rue_shop3: I'm getting worried
10:37 PM Tom_L: so you can set the house on fire remotely?
10:38 PM zhanx: rue_shop3: you can laugh now i did that 2 weeks ago
10:38 PM rue_shop3: no, it would be automatic
10:38 PM rue_shop3: I want to be able to schedule in more than one start time
10:38 PM rue_shop3: turns out, they made it easy
10:38 PM zhanx: mine is voice command and scheduled
10:39 PM rue_shop3: the controller in the unit I got is seperate
10:39 PM zhanx: one for me and one for the wife
10:39 PM rue_shop3: 5 pins, gnd, +5V, 60Hz, relay, tstat
10:39 PM rue_shop3: so I'm making an adatper to put in an esp8266
10:39 PM rue_shop3: (2 transistors, 3 resistors)
10:40 PM zhanx: why adapter?
10:40 PM rue_shop3: then its just all software
10:40 PM rue_shop3: the levels from the other board are out to lunch
10:40 PM rue_shop3: and the esp8266 is 3V
10:40 PM rue_shop3: I'm going to ignore the 60Hz
10:40 PM rue_shop3: for now
10:40 PM zhanx: k, i am using wemos d1's
10:41 PM rue_shop3: lolin
10:41 PM rue_shop3: nodemcu
10:41 PM zhanx: same thing really
10:41 PM rue_shop3: ok
10:41 PM zhanx: d1's are just cheaper
10:41 PM rue_shop3: I need to know how to start with 'update over wifi' code
10:41 PM zhanx: OTA code
10:41 PM rue_shop3: :-S
10:41 PM rue_shop3: dunno yet
10:42 PM rue_shop3: gonna put part in, work out rest later
10:42 PM zhanx: you need to start it with the beginner OTA code as the first upload and then use that as your base for the rest
10:42 PM zhanx: for the Arduino IDE
10:42 PM rue_shop3: ok
10:42 PM rue_shop3: so, there is an OTA example in the arduino ide?
10:42 PM zhanx: yes
10:43 PM zhanx: once you upload that
10:43 PM rue_shop3: yes...
10:43 PM zhanx: you should see after the esp reboot an option to upload via ip
10:43 PM rue_shop3: ah
10:44 PM zhanx: helps to disconnect it first
10:44 PM zhanx: from the pc
10:44 PM rue_shop3: np, long ways to go
10:44 PM zhanx: my room fan is OTA updates only on an d1 with a relay
10:45 PM zhanx: which if you saw how i wired it, you would laugh
10:45 PM rue_shop3: aparently the rings aren't getting welded today
10:46 PM zhanx: tomorrow i might have my motor drivers
10:46 PM zhanx: so my 3d printer is back up with spares

10:48 PM rue_shop3: fentenall is why my china packages take up to 7 months
10:49 PM zhanx: side note why is your pm, sending assault vehicles to Saudi and then bitching out human rights?
10:50 PM zhanx: Canada sold them 105mm Gatling guns no one else would
10:53 PM rue_shop3: ok, I depinned it
10:53 PM rue_shop3: no idea
10:54 PM rue_shop3: our politicians are a completely seperate entity from the rest of canada
10:54 PM zhanx: Canada and SA are doing a war of words, etc, while Canada ships them weapons. its weird
10:55 PM zhanx: at least in the US we know if we ship weapons that country is gonna use the, and SA will use them
10:56 PM rue_shop3: and were the hell do we get weapons from?
10:56 PM rue_shop3: we dont make anything

10:57 PM zhanx: i know that we do it for you
10:57 PM rue_shop3: our beef goes to the usa for processing and comes back as hamburger
10:58 PM zhanx: it might be the made in canada stamp where you paint it and call it made there
10:58 PM rue_shop3: nope, not allowed
10:58 PM rue_shop3: there was a local business that was not allowed to say "made in canada" on wool shirts they were knitting because the wool was imported
10:59 PM zhanx: well you sold 105 up armored with guns to SA this year
10:59 PM zhanx: all made in CA
10:59 PM zhanx: not even light armored
10:59 PM rue_shop3: I wonder if there is still government funding for the asbestos mines out east
10:59 PM zhanx: with a maintenance contract to boot
11:00 PM rue_shop3: I cant say we dont, but I can say that manufacturing in canada is pathetic
11:01 PM rue_shop3: I cant even get that god damned belt
11:01 PM zhanx: its almost the same in America, hence why Trump wants to bring it back
11:02 PM rue_shop3: our admin isn't interested in bringing anything back

11:05 PM zhanx: i guess the 600 a week plus over time was not enough
11:05 PM rue_shop3: in canada, if you dont have a real mailing adress, you cant get benifits
