10:44 PM aandrew: I saw the article about your ULN2803 doubler
10:44 PM rue_mohr: yes...
10:45 PM rue_mohr: the efficiency of that chip has much to be desired
10:45 PM rue_mohr: a few version with shottkey diodes would be nice
10:46 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/tempimage/p1290053.jpg
10:46 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/tempimage/p1290054.jpg
10:46 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/tempimage/p1290055.jpg
10:46 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/tempimage/p1290056.jpg
10:46 PM aandrew: need moar pixels
10:46 PM rue_mohr: new box for the 12V adapters, rods back in pigeon holes,
10:46 PM rue_mohr: aandrew, ctrl+
10:46 PM aandrew: that doesn't give more pixels, that just makes the existing pixels bigger
10:47 PM rue_mohr: didn't have a chance to work on the cnc or that servo project
10:47 PM rue_mohr: aandrew, you can zoom in lots before its at the limit of your 1080 monitor :]
10:48 PM aandrew: nah, I've zoomed many things in my life, big and blurry isn't any substitute for actual resolution
10:48 PM rue_mohr: 480 is almost half the height of the monitors lines
10:48 PM rue_mohr: do you have a 22" monitor?
10:48 PM rue_mohr: mmm?
10:49 PM rue_mohr: my monitor has 1600 lines :]
10:49 PM rue_mohr: :p
10:50 PM rue_mohr: I can see the pixels on most new montiors, it drives me crazy
10:51 PM rue_mohr: everyone is all crazy about their low res, wide screen, huge monitors
10:52 PM rue_mohr: I probably should bump it to 600x800 tho...
10:52 PM rue_mohr: esp for tempimage
10:52 PM rue_mohr: actaully
10:52 PM rue_mohr: tempimage could be even higher, there are just 20 images
10:52 PM rue_mohr: hmmmmm
10:53 PM rue_mohr: mogrify -verbose -geometry 640x480 *.jpg
10:53 PM rue_mohr: oh, easy
10:54 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/tempimage/p1290056.jpg
10:55 PM rue_mohr: polprog, what if we make the side script more like a video player?
10:56 PM rue_mohr: and why is a 640x480 image so much better on my monitor than aandrews
10:56 PM rue_mohr: http://ruemohr.org/~ircjunk/tempimage/slide.htm
10:57 PM rue_mohr: it doesn't break the sideshow
10:57 PM aandrew: it's not that it's better, I just don't understand the need to put low res photos up. full megapixels. I want to be able to read the resistor bands off the board
10:57 PM aandrew: happy to give you a shell on my machine, I have no bandwidth issues
10:58 PM rue_mohr: I'm borrowing the server space
10:58 PM rue_mohr: hm
10:58 PM rue_mohr: the whole site is already 1G
10:58 PM aandrew: https://ibb.co/ynQmT9J
10:58 PM aandrew: I can zoom up just fine, still can't read shit
10:58 PM rue_mohr: he says he's not worried about it, but
10:59 PM rue_mohr: hah, you trying to read the schematic?
10:59 PM rue_mohr: hehe
10:59 PM aandrew: that's just an example
10:59 PM aandrew: small photos are great for kitty pics
11:00 PM aandrew: 1G is nothing
11:00 PM rue_mohr: thats zoomed in too far anyhow...
11:00 PM rue_mohr: is that the default view you get?
11:01 PM rue_mohr: I like ibb, I can actually load the pages...
11:01 PM aandrew: the default? one moment
11:02 PM aandrew: https://ibb.co/wCRsKxC that is 100%
11:02 PM rue_mohr: yea
11:02 PM rue_mohr: ok
11:03 PM rue_mohr: so, I want to work out how to make a bunch of floating divs
11:03 PM rue_mohr: that chain down the page
11:04 PM aandrew: web stuff is beyond me, I last worked on web stuff when <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Foo</TITLE></HEAD><BODY><P>Bar.</P></BODY></HTML> was pretty fancy
11:04 PM rue_mohr: :]
11:04 PM rue_mohr: oh I dont want supper, so I dont know what to make
11:05 PM rue_mohr: hehe, your tabs got lotz of github
11:05 PM aandrew: anywya I'm serious about hosting it, absolutely no worries. scp/rsync or syncthing would probably be easiest
11:05 PM aandrew: oh
11:05 PM aandrew: that's just one window
11:06 PM rue_shop3: yea
11:06 PM aandrew: five windows, 65, 149, 133, 60 and 51 tabs
11:06 PM rue_shop3: I'm there too
11:07 PM rue_shop3: I spread it across 3 users so its less inconvieneient when one crashes
11:07 PM rue_shop3: I'm running 32 bit, so there is auto-memory-limiting when they bloat too much
11:13 PM rue_mohr: polprog, I like those changes, but I think there is a slightly better way of doing it
11:14 PM rue_mohr: I'm not sure what that is yet
11:52 PM rue_mohr: * Youtube channel * GitHub * Twitter * Mastodon * SoundCloud * Stuff * Pictures * Friends *
11:52 PM rue_mohr: thats what I should have finished
11:53 PM rue_mohr: so the list, I want to make it so mine auto-updates
