01:15 AM rue_shop3: https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRJzN8ZlXmwiWsMoVwS2CYPwpkoCsn9rJ--7yFNZcIolT3lXwLY

01:22 AM zhanx: ok saving work , off to bed
01:22 AM rue_shop3: I'm a bit at a loss as to why ai software is learn-crippled when put into field
01:22 AM rue_shop3: you would think they might just dial down the rate so they cant adjust to specific field conditions
01:23 AM rue_shop3: er, so they CAN adjust
01:24 AM rue_shop1: I feel like if I could sit down and focus on just a 555 circuit I'd be happy
01:41 AM rue_mohr: yea, almost every project or task I think of breaks up and down into a million things
01:42 AM rue_mohr: 555 led flashes becomes assembling a breadboard power supply
06:43 AM Tom_L: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVgPM1ojyLw
10:04 AM rue_mohr: yea, he's a pro caster tho
10:08 AM rue_mohr: it would be nice to know more about the plaster
10:08 AM rue_mohr: the stuff I can get has tooo much sulfur in it
10:09 AM rue_mohr: see, he just totally did it backwards to how I'd have thought
10:12 AM rue_mohr: whaat, no funnel or riser
10:14 AM rue_mohr: ah there it is
10:14 AM rue_mohr: hmm fast pour
10:14 AM rue_mohr: hah his can isn't split
10:15 AM rue_mohr: no registration pins
10:18 AM Tom_L: i was more interested in how he removed the PLA
10:18 AM Tom_L: instead of letting the metal burn it out
10:20 AM rue_mohr: yea it would take too long to burn out w/metal
10:20 AM rue_mohr: its likley by 110C the PLA had oozed out
10:21 AM Tom_L: i'd imagine it also helps remove the remaining moisture from the plaster
