02:27 AM Centurion_Dan: Loetmichel: bit of an odd looking failure... is that aluminium? (aluminum for the North Americans)??
02:28 AM Centurion_Dan: to be honest it look to me more like a free hand gas or plasma cut...
02:28 AM Deejay: moin
02:30 AM Centurion_Dan: Loetmichel: although I could be decieved by the grime... looks like it's been that way a long while..

07:45 AM bjorkintosh: without a flashlight?
09:18 AM Loetmichel: *Hrhrhr* now THREE 3dprinters sing their song for me... have the two Ender3 printing usb drive bays for 5.25" slots and my old AnetA8 printing a combined slim DVD and Floppy drive adaapter for 5.25"... not unisono though ;)
10:19 AM FinboySlick: Loetmichel be like: "I love the smell of PLA in the morning."
10:23 AM Loetmichel: FinboySlick: smells like maggi ;)
10:23 AM FinboySlick: They need to make coffee-infused PLA for your morning prints.
10:25 AM Loetmichel: its evening here, though
10:29 AM perry_j1987: not a real coffee drinker if you use that as an excuse :P
10:29 AM FinboySlick: perry_j1987: Well, they could make a napalm-smelling kind too if you're more of an Apocalypse Now type of person.
10:30 AM perry_j1987: ask Protopasta
10:30 AM perry_j1987: :P
10:30 AM FinboySlick: "Smells like... victory."
10:34 AM Loetmichel: maaan, wenedsday will be "funny"... have to deliver a bunch of PCs to a customer in vienna, so i will pack my private car tomorrow, start driving wenedsday morning at 0400 to be there at 1200, then have a few hours of customer approval check, then at about 1600 hours home, be there at about 2400... and thursday morning at 0800 my car mechanic expects me to be there to change the shocks on
10:34 AM Loetmichel: the BMW ;)
10:37 AM * roycroft guesses that victory does not smell like teen spirit
10:46 AM rmu: Loetmichel: have them shipped and take the train
11:27 AM Loetmichel: hmmm... just had a nice pole position on the traffic light onto the highway... checked the "perfomance" screen of my android speedo app... 0-60mph: 9.8 sec, 0-100kph 10.6sec, 1/4 mile: 17.8 sec... maaan i thought that BMW 525i was better... :-( (ok, its a 2001 station wagon with only 192hp, but still)
11:29 AM * jthornton finds it hard to hold his phone when doing a performance test on the BlueWing... it just goes from 0 - 120 mph so fast.
11:33 AM Loetmichel: jthornton: thats why that app runs on the Radio ;)
11:33 AM Loetmichel: i need my hands for shifting ;)
11:34 AM jthornton: hmm, I'll have to look for that then as I know my speedometer on the BlueWing is off a couple
11:36 AM jthornton: which app is that?
11:37 AM Loetmichel: torque
11:38 AM jthornton: interesting app
11:38 AM Loetmichel: and if you want to record video with dials in them: get the Toque track recoder plugin
11:38 AM Loetmichel: torque
12:10 PM perry_j1987: what would cause the DRO not to zero if you do tool touchoff and tell it thats 0
12:13 PM perry_j1987: hmm restarted axis and now its working as expected
12:13 PM perry_j1987: odd
