02:16 AM Deejay: moin
03:37 AM Loetmichel: *MUHAHA* Coworker just came up to me with a bewildered look: "that pc beeps with the front lid open and is quiet with front lid closed! How can THAT happen?" (our PCs have a front lid with a lock and a magentic sensor in the case that detects the closed lock via a magnet glued to the lock)
03:37 AM Loetmichel: i got over, investigated: boss used tha PC and was annoyed by the beeping and put a magnet nest to the locks latch. So the sensor sees a field and quiets. but he put that magnet the other way around than the one in the lock. so the moment you close the door the two magnets cancel each other out...
03:37 AM Loetmichel: cue me giving the engineer coworker a refresh course in magnetism ;)
04:20 AM XXCoder: lol
05:00 AM drzacek: Hello there
05:01 AM XXCoder: hey
05:01 AM drzacek: I just installed linuxcnc our of curiosity. It doesn't look simple at all, I'm flooded with stuff I don't understand at all :D
05:01 AM XXCoder: heh yeah cnc machines commerical its already done for you
05:02 AM XXCoder: linuxcnc you have to do it all, but its extremely flexiable and very powerful.
05:02 AM drzacek: I can imagine
05:02 AM drzacek: so what modules can I connect there?
05:02 AM drzacek: I can't imagine controlling the machine over buttons & dials in the UI
05:02 AM XXCoder: not too sure what you mean by modules
05:02 AM XXCoder: oh! dial, signal generator, switches etc
05:03 AM drzacek: well I need to control motors somehow, but surely I can also connect some I/O modules or PLCs?
05:03 AM XXCoder: yeah you can use anything, you connect em to pins etc
05:03 AM jthornton: morning
05:03 AM XXCoder: using MESA or parallel port breakout or whatever
05:03 AM XXCoder: jt is our resident expert on MESA.
05:03 AM drzacek: is there a support for industrial fieldbuses?
05:03 AM drzacek: morning
05:04 AM drzacek: what's mesa exactly
05:04 AM drzacek: I can recall something regarding grahics
05:04 AM drzacek: but I was linked some mesa modules last time
05:04 AM XXCoder: its not graphics
05:04 AM XXCoder: jthornton? heh
05:04 AM drzacek: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesa_(computer_graphics)
05:05 AM XXCoder: lol nah not graphics related :) its hardware to control cnc machines
05:05 AM XXCoder: and deals with inputs and outputs
05:06 AM drzacek: is it some open standard, or just the name of the company?
05:07 AM XXCoder: hmm dunno? jt still havent had his coffee or something yet heh he'll help out
05:07 AM drzacek: I'm looking at their website and what they offer
05:08 AM XXCoder: its not sole choice however theres cheap system of using breakout board for parallel port with say cheap drivers like tb6600, but those isnt great for commerical setups
05:08 AM drzacek: so I have a general idea
05:08 AM drzacek: but can I connect some other parts? got access to profibus and some can bus modules
05:08 AM Tom_L: morning
05:09 AM XXCoder: i only know basics of more advanced system, mine is cheap cnc router with BOB and tb6600s lol
05:17 AM Tom_L: jthornton gettin any rain?
05:17 AM Tom_L: we're on the edge of it it appears
05:27 AM jthornton: not looked outside yet
05:27 AM jthornton: why did you have to do auto login different?
05:28 AM jthornton: radar shows it just to the west of me
05:33 AM drzacek: can it work with ramps perhaps?
05:49 AM tiwake: drzacek: http://www.mesanet.com/
05:50 AM tiwake: http://www.mesanet.com/fpgacardinfo.html and you probably want the 6i25+7i77 or 7i76 kit
05:50 AM tiwake: the kit is like $400 or something
05:51 AM tiwake: 7i77 is for servos, 7i76 is for stepper motors
05:57 AM jthornton: https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/v1/download/matrix.org/oVuyBkNsoBSpdEiGLIQCoWGo
06:00 AM XXCoder: is that tool listing?
06:01 AM Tom_L: jthornton, i tried using the one in /etc/lightdm but it ignored it
06:02 AM Tom_L: no idea why
06:03 AM jthornton: you edited the wrong one, you were in the comment section, the real one is farther down
06:04 AM jthornton: yea working on my threading part of conversational so I need to get the info from my database on threads
06:49 AM jthornton: https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/v1/download/matrix.org/SvDPoaSVhUlesAAWeZfHVAev
06:52 AM Tom_L: i'll check it later
07:04 AM jthornton: https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/v1/download/matrix.org/NTDMpgeGlgTAmrYdvgULHiGl
09:18 AM Deejay: re
09:45 AM jthornton: yo
10:37 AM Tom_L: jthornton, do you know how to save a session in mate?
10:48 AM Rab: Attn machinists: https://www.grizzly.com/products/Teknatool-18-Nova-Voyager-DVR-Variable-Speed-Drill-Press/T30589
10:49 AM Tom_L: jthornton, i see what i did wrong now :)
10:49 AM Rab: Easily able to handle Wood, Metal, Plastics and Glass!
10:50 AM Rab: I think it's a wickedness for their action shot to depict a really bad use of a MT spindle...I assume this machine has no drawbar.
10:58 AM flyback: cool
10:58 AM flyback: rab just remember to mind yourself making dust
10:58 AM flyback: if you are drilling particularily nasty stuff to drill
10:59 AM flyback: granted highly unlikely with just a drill bit to genenrate enough dust to be a damage but still good thing to think about
10:59 AM flyback: damage/danger
10:59 AM Tom_L: jthornton, why do you need min major diameter in the file?
11:01 AM Rab: flyback, even sawdust can be bad news. I try to either generate dust outside, or use a respirator.
11:15 AM jthornton: Tom_L: it's part of the thread information
11:15 AM Tom_L: lookin good though
11:16 AM Tom_L: workin my way thru his tutorial
11:18 AM jthornton: took a lot of head scratching to sort out the database stuff in qt lol
11:19 AM Tom_L: i bet
11:20 AM Tom_L: jthornton, do you know how to save a session in mate?
11:20 AM Tom_L: my mill pc does it but i can't figure it out on this one
11:20 AM jthornton: not sure what your asking?
11:20 AM Tom_L: so when i boot up it comes up as i left it
11:20 AM Tom_L: everything open
11:21 AM jthornton: hmm, never tried that
11:21 AM Tom_L: my wheezy box does that
11:21 AM jthornton: if you figure it out let me know
11:21 AM Tom_L: :)
11:21 AM Tom_L: i'm not sure what desktop i'm using on wheezy
11:21 AM jthornton: I'm sure it's desktop related
11:21 AM Tom_L: i thought it was mate but who knows
11:22 AM jthornton: if it's from the iso it's the lx something or other
11:22 AM Tom_L: gotta run for a bit
11:22 AM jthornton: k
11:22 AM Tom_L: no, i did a full install
11:22 AM jthornton: I should do some work...
11:36 AM Jymmm: Great song... Mazzy Star - Fade Into You https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uJ61jgFCMM
11:41 AM fragalot: 'sup
11:42 AM Jymmm: TOAST
11:43 AM fragalot: :o
11:44 AM Jymmm: I'm not sure what a famous toaster is famous for, but we'll go with it =)
11:46 AM fragalot: that was exactly what I thought when I registered it
11:47 AM fragalot: the Toaster was one of my old XPC's with hardware in it that really did not belong in such a small form factor
11:50 AM Jymmm: ah, heh =)
11:52 AM skunkworks: http://electronicsam.com/images/greenmachine/20190403_175734.jpg
11:53 AM Jymmm: skunkworks: you should cut those wires and add more tapped holes, even if not needed ;)
11:53 AM skunkworks: http://electronicsam.com/images/greenmachine/20190403_180018.jpg
11:54 AM fragalot: skunkworks: calibrate your probe!
11:54 AM Jymmm: and degrease your scope =)
11:54 AM fragalot: also, clean that thing, shameful :P
11:54 AM skunkworks: fragalot: I know - right!
11:54 AM skunkworks: heh
11:54 AM skunkworks: I want a small digital some day...
11:55 AM Jymmm: fragalot: is that what that is? probe issue?
11:55 AM skunkworks: This thing we have had since I was in high school
11:55 AM fragalot: Jymmm: yeeah
11:55 AM fragalot: -e
11:55 AM Jymmm: skunkworks: I have unlock codes if you are interested
11:56 AM skunkworks: for?
11:56 AM Jymmm: fragalot: I thought is was some funky signal and was going "Uh, is that me or...???"
11:56 AM Jymmm: skunkworks: turns a 25Mmhz into 100Mhz
11:58 AM fragalot: Jymmm: nah, this is why most scopes have a 2kHz square wave generator, and a little trim pot on the probes
11:59 AM fragalot: you basically just adjust that little pot until the square wave looks.. well.. square.
11:59 AM Jymmm: skunkworks: unlocks this scope... https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=23&v=ETCOhzU1O5A
11:59 AM fragalot: Jymmm: 50Mhz to 100, not 25
11:59 AM Jymmm: fragalot: Ah, gotcha.
12:00 PM Jymmm: Yeah, my bad . your'e right 50 to 100MHz plus unlocks other features too
12:00 PM fragalot: I should really upgrade my 1052 to somemthing nicer.. I'm too spoiled at work & now I know the difference, lol
12:00 PM Jymmm: skunkworks: https://www.amazon.com/Rigol-DS1054Z-Digital-Oscilloscopes-Bandwidth/dp/B012938E76
12:06 PM skunkworks: Nice!
12:06 PM skunkworks: I have looked at them before
12:07 PM Jymmm: skunkworks: If you consider one, let me know and I'll get you the unlock stuff before hand.
12:08 PM Jymmm: but dont tell ve7it no matter what
12:08 PM ve7it: Jymmm, YUP... HE IS A SHADY LOOKING CHARACTER
12:10 PM Jymmm: ve7it: This is true. We're just talking about unlocking this scope... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETCOhzU1O5A
12:18 PM Jymmm: Anyone have an ideas of stuff to get with a HSA card?
12:21 PM skunkworks: heh - no deals on ebay...
12:22 PM skunkworks: cbd oil? ;)
12:25 PM fragalot: snake oil
12:45 PM * fragalot is bulk purchasing tooling from the UK "just in case" :P
12:46 PM Jymmm: skunkworks: I'm in NorCal, nuff said
12:47 PM Jymmm: The HSA stuff I can find are first aid kits - shrug-
01:08 PM gloops: i wouldnt panic fragalot
01:09 PM fragalot: gloops: i'm not, but it's a good excuse
01:09 PM gloops: well maybe panic last minute buying from us could boost our economy heh
01:10 PM gloops: i will be surprised if brexit happens this decade though
01:10 PM fragalot: i'm doing my part
01:10 PM miss0r: don't forget me ;)
01:10 PM fragalot: who?
01:11 PM miss0r: or any other land rover idiots for that matter !
01:11 PM roycroft: some of your hard-core brexiteers are insane, gloops
01:11 PM roycroft: they're calling theresa may a communist now!
01:11 PM miss0r: so? who are we to say she is not? :D
01:11 PM roycroft: calling corbyn a marxist is incorrect, but to be expected
01:11 PM roycroft: but calling her a communist is just crazy
01:11 PM gloops: they arent hard core brexiteers roycroft, theyre just british politicians, the rest are EU politicians
01:12 PM roycroft: everything she's always done, miss0r
01:12 PM roycroft: may is the farthest thing from a communist that the world has ever seen
01:12 PM gloops: this is a national humiliation
01:12 PM miss0r: roycroft: Trying not to get personal here :) I know very little of her.
01:12 PM roycroft: it did not need to be, gloops
01:12 PM fragalot: gloops: international*
01:12 PM roycroft: but yes, it has turned out that way
01:12 PM miss0r: the european union should be uprooted anyway
01:12 PM roycroft: your parliament are making our congress look competent by comparison :)
01:13 PM miss0r: roycroft: wow.. cool it :D
01:13 PM fragalot: miss0r: remind me to check my car insurance is valid in DK
01:13 PM fragalot: :P
01:13 PM miss0r: I'm not saying you are entirely wrong. just offensive :D
01:13 PM fragalot: (minor detail)
01:13 PM roycroft: i think everyone in the uk, no matter what their politcal bent, agree that this is the worst government and the worst parliament in our lifetimes, at least
01:13 PM miss0r: fragalot: It should be.
01:14 PM gloops: it isnt a british parliament thats why
01:14 PM gloops: this is the EU faced with leaving the EU
01:14 PM fragalot: roycroft: I mean, they have been given an impossible job
01:14 PM gloops: impossible
01:14 PM fragalot: that said
01:14 PM fragalot: even if the referendum turned out to be 51% remain
01:14 PM fragalot: that is still not a good result
01:14 PM fragalot: that is a divided country
01:14 PM roycroft: as is ours
01:15 PM roycroft: and yes, that's a big part of the problem
01:15 PM phaxx: mostly a lied-to country, I'd have said.
01:15 PM roycroft: but the bigger problem is the same in the uk as in the us
01:15 PM gloops: phaxx yes theres been plenty of lying
01:15 PM roycroft: the government and the legislature in both countries are self-serving, not serving the people
01:15 PM gloops: 108 times in parliament, on camera, May told us we were leavingon March 29
01:15 PM miss0r: roycroft: That is the case for most of the democratic world
01:16 PM roycroft: well give it a few more days, gloops
01:16 PM roycroft: it seems that the prime minister is finally interested in brokering a deal that can actually work
01:16 PM miss0r: roycroft: In Denmark we have a term for it, which roughly translates to (work for)food politicians...
01:16 PM gloops: roycroft the only way the UK will end up out of the EU is if the EU decide they dont want us
01:16 PM roycroft: too bad she didn't get interested until after the brexit deadline
01:17 PM gloops: roycroft the problem is she never wanted to leave, we havent even tried to leave
01:17 PM roycroft: correct, gloops
01:17 PM roycroft: the tories put a remainer in charge of leaving
01:17 PM gloops: her deal reads like a surrender treaty
01:18 PM roycroft: her deal is stupid
01:18 PM roycroft: it's basically staying in the eu but leaving the european parliament
01:18 PM roycroft: it makes things even worse than they are now
01:18 PM roycroft: and will drive the brexiteers absolutely crazy
01:18 PM roycroft: which is why her government are resigning in droves
01:19 PM roycroft: she's lost 30 cabinet ministers in her relatively short tenure as pm
01:19 PM gloops: nobody ever enters negotiations on the basis that you first must agree to everything the other side wants, and pay up front, before they will even listen to what you want
01:19 PM roycroft: and she has cabinet vacancies now that she cannot fill because nobody wants the job
01:19 PM gloops: she is absolutely useless
01:20 PM roycroft: it's the same problem our president has - he blames democrats for not voting for his appointees, but the truth is that he can't find anyone willing to work for him
01:20 PM roycroft: but i must say
01:20 PM roycroft: as crazy as things are in the uk
01:20 PM roycroft: we are suffering from a much bigger crisis in the us
01:21 PM roycroft: we're about to be completely cut off from our avocado supply!
01:21 PM gloops: doesnt seem so bad over there roycroft?
01:21 PM fragalot: oringes.
01:21 PM gloops: your president is orange
01:21 PM phaxx: roycroft: nobody needs that haassle.
01:21 PM roycroft: all millenials will no longer be able to eat breakfast, because there is no other food for breakfast than avocado on toast!
01:21 PM roycroft: they will wither up and die
01:22 PM fragalot: roycroft: how old are you?
01:22 PM gloops: im sure Quorn will come up with an avocado substitute
01:22 PM roycroft: i am a baby boomer
01:22 PM fragalot: because it's avocado toast, not avocado ON toast
01:22 PM roycroft: and i love avocados
01:22 PM gloops: fungi isnt that different to avocado
01:22 PM roycroft: but mostly as guacamole
01:23 PM jdh: don't tease the obso's
01:23 PM * roycroft was born before the space age
01:27 PM gloops: well, the Lords arent too impressed with the fast tracked anti-no deal bill, still it wont make any difference, the will to leave isnt there
01:28 PM gloops: Viscount Ridley - "This could lead to a slippery slope to tyranny."
01:41 PM Hotaru: just curious: is there any documentation on the hostmot2 api? pdf of mesa-cards include description of lbp16, but on the topic of hostmot2 is stops at '64kb of memory'
01:52 PM Hotaru: ah, found it. file "regmap" from card software package
02:11 PM jthornton: https://www.weather.gov/pah/FirstandLastFreezeClimatology
02:58 PM XXCoder: roycroft: theres always someone willing, but with bad president and skilled guys refusing, it probably will be guy who cant find own head with both arms and hands, and another guy constantly pointing at where head is.
03:00 PM jthornton: https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/v1/download/matrix.org/vzNhezHbwuzXZvHugKaRktdO
03:22 PM XXCoder: sigh hate it when someone says everyone member of X is Y
03:23 PM XXCoder: my nephew have never eaten any avocodo. ever.
03:37 PM jdh: what's wrong with im
03:38 PM XXCoder: nothing wrong, he makes his own way
03:38 PM XXCoder: like any adult
03:40 PM gloops: ive tried avocado a couple of times, not unpleasant, but not something id get excited over
03:40 PM XXCoder: i want to grow trees that have avocado, but not because i expecially like em, but I like how tree looks like
03:41 PM XXCoder: but it cant stand freezing winters. oh well
03:41 PM gloops: people do grow stones here, but mainly indoors plants, in conservatory etc
03:41 PM XXCoder: https://www.thetreecenter.com/wp-content/uploads/Avocado-tree-Winterhome.jpg
03:42 PM Rab: It's a shame to denigrate young people as whimsical millennials. I know some smart, hard-working hustlers in that age bracket.
03:42 PM gloops: nice looking tree/bush
03:42 PM XXCoder: rab indeed. not only that people is for some reason angry that in general, millenials dont buy houses and cars.
03:42 PM gloops: similar to walnut
03:42 PM XXCoder: real reason is college debt is crushing
03:43 PM XXCoder: college was starting to rise in cost when i was in college, graduated and its more than doubled in cost
03:43 PM Rab: Avocados are terrific, on or off toast...the urban fad of paying $9-12 for avocado toast is ridiculous.
03:44 PM jdh: my ("millenial") kids both have cars and my son just bought a house
03:45 PM jdh: he does like avocados
03:46 PM XXCoder: im kinda concerned of "seedless" avocados
03:47 PM jdh: hmm... local store has 2/$0.99 avocados
03:48 PM XXCoder: and 2 can make bunch of toast lol
03:48 PM jdh: I like them on salads
03:49 PM Rab: XXCoder, seedless avocados? Do they share this disturbing aspect? https://public-media.si-cdn.com/filer/7e/14/7e14622d-490b-4caa-81bc-1d3dbad93b4f/philips-slimstyle-led.jpg
03:50 PM XXCoder: lol not really lemme find a pic
03:50 PM XXCoder: https://nypost.com/2017/12/12/taste-testing-the-crazy-new-seedless-avocado/
03:51 PM gregcnc: anyone make makers marks/ letter stamps. The concept seems simple enough. mill some tool steel with a reasonable draft angle to make the symbol you want
03:52 PM gloops: not with steel no
03:52 PM Rab: Letter punches are cheap enough. For custom symbols, I might rather etch and harden.
03:53 PM gloops: with wood just profile the letter than bevel with a V bit
03:53 PM Rab: Although etching a deep relief is its own artful process.
03:54 PM syyl: not to hard milling them with a single lip cutter
03:54 PM Rab: I've had good results in steel with ferric chloride.
03:54 PM syyl: on a decent cnc mill, i would machine it right into a hardened piece of toolsteel
03:55 PM syyl: not to be bothered with heat treating it myself
03:56 PM gregcnc: syyl, that's what I figure. for aluminum so maybe not need to be too hard
03:56 PM syyl: i tend to overbuild ;)
03:58 PM gregcnc: seems like it would even be dirt cheap to find someone to make one, but there is no fun in that
04:01 PM Tom_L: jthornton, it's gettin there
04:01 PM JT-Shop: what's that?
04:01 PM Tom_L: your database
04:02 PM Tom_L: did you have to add any more widgets to do that?
04:02 PM JT-Shop: to save to the database?
04:02 PM Tom_L: yeah
04:02 PM Tom_L: or even create one
04:03 PM JT-Shop: yea I had to add the widgets and add some code
04:15 PM Deejay: gn8
04:17 PM gloops: just bevelled letters in wood, suppose same thing in hard steel would make a stamp https://ibb.co/8PZvXT0
04:18 PM Tom_L: 60 deg?
04:18 PM gloops: yeah, a bit too deep with the 60 degree, but just an example
04:19 PM gregcnc: well that bevel distorts the resulting imprint. it's a little tricky
04:20 PM gloops: sometimes turns out funny, depending on shape or depth of bevel
04:21 PM gloops: you mean when the punch displaces the metal it hits?
04:22 PM gregcnc: yes, some of the details dispappear for sure
04:22 PM gloops: well i know nothing about the physics of punching
04:23 PM gregcnc: just that method of adding the bevel reduced the height of some parts
04:24 PM gregcnc: creating the geometry isn't a problem
04:28 PM gloops: so if you need a 'point' in all aspects of the punch facing the job, youre going to have some variation in height - where intricate complex lines cross or intersect
04:29 PM gregcnc: simply adding a chamfer to extruded fancy text won't work
04:29 PM gloops: so..on impact, the raised parts are punching before the lower parts, by the time the lower parts hit, the impact is losing momentum, and they dont cut as effectively
04:30 PM gloops: (maybe)
04:31 PM gloops: so you cant just round round the profile with a v bit
04:32 PM gloops: you need to contruct a 3d model with consistent height, the bevel must vary - not the height
04:37 PM gloops: (will check this theory against my letter punches tommorrow, out of curiousity, i wont be making punches)
05:38 PM flyback: BMCC
05:38 PM * flyback headbutts HighInBC
05:59 PM Tom_L: jthornton around?
06:08 PM JT-Shop: he will be down there in a bit
06:14 PM jthornton: yo
06:16 PM Tom_L: in qt is there a way to view the groups you have assigned?
06:16 PM jthornton: button groups?
06:16 PM Tom_L: yeah
06:17 PM Tom_L: also i'm getting an error i don't know what to do with
06:17 PM Tom_L: simple one i'm sure
06:17 PM jthornton: right click on a button and select button group nameofgroup select
06:17 PM Tom_L: attriberrpr: mymainwindow: object has not attribute mdibuttongroup
06:18 PM Tom_L: attriberror:
06:18 PM jthornton: look in the object inspector at the bottom of the list
06:19 PM Tom_L: offsetbuttongroup qbuttongroup
06:19 PM jthornton: are you making a gui from scratch?
06:19 PM Tom_L: no i'm trying to follow his tutorial
06:20 PM Tom_L: up to the offset part
06:20 PM jthornton: which tutorial?
06:20 PM Tom_L: https://qtpyvcp.kcjengr.com/tutorials/basic_vcp_08.html
06:22 PM jthornton: did you skip the MDI page?
06:22 PM Tom_L: no
06:22 PM jthornton: you might have unselected them?
06:22 PM Tom_L: maybe
06:22 PM jthornton: right click on a mdi button and see what pops up
06:23 PM Tom_L: but i checked that again
06:23 PM Tom_L: mdi?
06:23 PM Tom_L: oh..
06:23 PM Tom_L: i'm in the offset side
06:23 PM Tom_L: i see now
06:23 PM jthornton: yea the page before
06:23 PM Tom_L: i'll fiddle with it, gotta help my kid a bit
06:23 PM jthornton: ok
