04:29 AM JT-Cave: morning
09:36 AM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> the Micronics SLS printer project is cancelled, acquired by Formlabs, so there you go
09:36 AM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> it would undercut Formlabs own SLS printer
09:37 AM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> so now all you need to do is come up with lower cost products that formlabs and they will acquire you

12:38 PM Unterhausen: it's my fake birthday that I tell all the websites that insist on knowing my birthday
12:40 PM Tom_L: happy not birthday
12:43 PM Unterhausen: fake thanks
12:44 PM Unterhausen: sometimes I'll get an email saying it's my birthday and it takes me a minute to remember why
12:51 PM Tom_L: did you know a dead bios battery can be a bitch to figure out?
12:52 PM Tom_L: fwiw...
12:54 PM xxcoder: lol symtoms of that can be so random
12:58 PM xxcoder: when my old pc was rebooting randomly first thing I did was replace cmos battery
12:59 PM xxcoder: it wasnt cause but psu killing some parts but yeah
01:11 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> cederb <--- is full of complaints about LCNC, just kidding, welcome
01:11 PM Tom_L: JT-Cave, PR #104 mesact
01:12 PM lcnc-relay: <cederb#0> Haha, I've been here a long time, but never found any real activity
01:12 PM Tom_L: you haven't been looking
01:13 PM lcnc-relay: <cederb#0> No I haven't for the last year or so, that is true
01:13 PM Tom_L: there's proof :)
01:14 PM Tom_L: JT-Cave, PR #42 flexgui (deb)
01:14 PM JT-Shop: thanks
01:15 PM Tom_L: both repo debs up to date now
01:15 PM JT-Shop: awesome
01:16 PM Tom_L: must be nap time
01:38 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> already 95, forecast 107
01:53 PM xxcoder: 82f today here. cooler lol.
02:20 PM xxcoder: likely final update from one of testers https://youtu.be/W5AZIM1VdsU
02:23 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> just had a short power outage....
02:24 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> pretty funny, because a PG&E crew has been working on the transmission tower in my back yard. fixing some ancient leg/foundation problems.
03:07 PM JT-Shop: did 19 miles before running out of time this morning
03:08 PM xxcoder: running or cycling?
03:15 PM JT-Shop: run is no longer in my vocabulary
03:15 PM xxcoder: aw no more running a car eh
03:15 PM xxcoder: ;)
03:16 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> JT-Shop: no ride for me today. Had transmission tower workers here.. yesterday had a good 24 miles
03:16 PM JT-Shop: no more running on my feet...
03:16 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> 2 mile easy walk this morning, before the heat
03:17 PM xxcoder: lol yeah same for me. I tried trial run for single block, had to stop after only few steps because I was in risk for falling already due to vision shaking and stuff
03:17 PM JT-Shop: running or walking?
03:17 PM xxcoder: running
03:17 PM xxcoder: walking is fine, even with vision constantly shaking as I walk
03:21 PM xxcoder: just got fresh batch of cbd so I can get rid of quite old leftover cbd powder, and new cbd is more effecive on lessening back pain
03:21 PM Tom_L: i think about running..... naaaa
03:22 PM Tom_L: sorry, this _is_ my hurry up
03:22 PM xxcoder: I always preffered cycling more than running, but bicycle is far more dangerous than running for me lol. tricycle is in my plans
03:22 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> no running here. either walk or ride
03:23 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> xxcoder: I have an old friend who rides a big trike. he falls over on regular bikes.... it's completely cool.
03:23 PM xxcoder: yeah im fine with it also. dont really care about coolness also
03:30 PM xxcoder: https://youtu.be/yqpo7LGhjlk
03:30 PM xxcoder: new sls4all videp
03:37 PM xxcoder: honestly I like 2 bin type sls better I think. other one uses complex screw etc to only have one bin
04:00 PM lcnc-relay: <ffffrf> what do yall think would be the road block to making a Y axis for lathe in linuxcnc - is it setting up linuxcnc or modifying the lathe post processor in fusion360 to do mill-turn
04:02 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> ffffrf: there are lathe setups already
04:02 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> dont know the axes, but shouldn't matter. check the forum
04:03 PM JT-Shop: yup emc don't care what axes you have just some of the GUI's are a PIA
04:04 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> JT-Shop: hey. was at Peter's yesterday
04:05 PM JT-Shop: was he able to fix your board?
04:05 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> he checked my 7i33. seems ok. checked my spare 7i80. no good. he gave a replacement 7i80. now I think I can test servo setup for you
04:05 PM JT-Shop: cool
04:06 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> only 101.5 now
04:06 PM JT-Shop: ouch
04:06 PM Tom_L: kid starts his new job monday. they offered him more to stay but they don't have any work
04:06 PM Tom_L: my thermometer said 101 earlier
04:06 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> I think my weather station is in the shade. other ones around me are showing 105
04:08 PM JT-Shop: my weather station is mobile and I always have it with me... I just walk outside and if I get wet it's raining or snowing
04:08 PM Tom_L: :)
04:08 PM lcnc-relay: <roguish> that''d be your head
04:09 PM Tom_L: i got crap for getting a couple bucket hats in tulum for shade. now she wears hers all the time when it's wet out
04:12 PM xxcoder: 82f here atm. cooler than yeserday
04:13 PM xxcoder: wed looks like it will be "fun" 89f but partial cloud which means fun with humidity
04:13 PM * JT-Shop has no clue what a bucket hat is...
04:15 PM lcnc-relay: <xxcodery> https://jauriarts.org/_matrix/media/v3/download/jauriarts.org/gIfeWJqmwUFoToqiobZkIRJQ/shopping.png
04:15 PM lcnc-relay: <xxcodery> I guess?
04:15 PM Tom_L: yup
04:15 PM JT-Shop: ah I have a tan one
04:16 PM JT-Shop: didn't gilligan wear one?
04:16 PM Tom_L: one from there and one from StMartin
04:16 PM Tom_L: i think so yes
04:16 PM Tom_L: just enough to keep the drops off the specs and sun off the back of your neck
04:31 PM Tom_L: it all went at once here
04:31 PM JT-Shop: wtf?
04:31 PM -!- #linuxcnc mode set to +v by ChanServ
04:31 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> oh sure
04:31 PM xxcoder: yeah but client always sends them and closing client kills the buffered text
04:31 PM Tom_L: hey.. go big or go home..
04:32 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> but we were waiting for the long link
04:32 PM xxcoder: once pasted entire very long wiki into irc lol ha to close or it'd be running all day
04:34 PM Tom_L: https://tinyurl.com/bdwxeb39
04:34 PM JT-Shop: LOL Henry
04:35 PM Tom_L: https://s.wsj.net/public/resources/images/B3-BH437_BUCKET_TOP_20180801183917.jpg
04:40 PM rdtsc2: I don't think we need a xxenode for that, but a xxdecode lol
04:46 PM lcnc-relay: <Travis Farmer> so what do we do when the mods spam? 😉
04:47 PM * rdtsc2 tries to upload a yyencoded version of the LinuxCNC iso...
04:48 PM * rdtsc2 is bannd from the server for ever!
04:55 PM Tom_L: i don't recall the 2013 meet being online
04:55 PM Tom_L: found some old logs from that meeting
04:56 PM Tom_L: maybe that was back when they had a channel for online meetings
04:57 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> sumbuddy said that the wiki looks like their grammys wiki, who do we blame and how do we fix it?
04:58 PM JT-Shop: it's user maintained so help yourself
04:58 PM JT-Shop: oh the answer is users and users
04:58 PM Tom_L: does that let you format too?
04:58 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> ok, whats the password to update the wiki software?
04:59 PM Tom_L: iirc it's the mascott
04:59 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> no you get black on tan and thats it
04:59 PM Tom_L: it was worse than that the other day
05:00 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> I don't mind how the wiki looks as long as it works
05:00 PM Tom_L: seems working here
05:01 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> the forum editor needs to be replaced and the developer beaten with wet noodles until done
05:02 PM JT-Shop: do you have a suggestion or just a complaint?
05:02 PM Tom_L: capn, you should put in a PR to add those files to the DL page
05:02 PM Tom_L: careful or i may spam ya again!
05:02 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> calm down, we are waiting for testers and for Andy to finish his 9.2.3 release of uspace
05:03 PM rdtsc2: replacing the forum software sounds like an even bigger wet-noodle mess
05:03 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> RTAI will likely be 5.4.279
05:04 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> the forums work, it the editor that just about everyone hates
05:04 PM JT-Shop: I "think" I can add to the download page but I'd have to finger out how to upload to where ever the files need to be
05:05 PM JT-Shop: not much I can do with the editor it's a very bad WYSWYG editor
05:05 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> but Andy asked us to hold up partner
05:05 PM JT-Shop: waiting is easy
05:05 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> so lets see what his 9.2.3 does
05:06 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> then the LCNC RTAI build needs to have a matching set of debs built
05:06 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> so maybe LCNC 2.9.3 with RTAI 5.4.279
05:08 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> maybe the wiki needs some Discordification, animations, sound effects, etc
05:08 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> a modern wiki has to be full of distraction and graffiti
05:09 PM JT-Shop: doesn't sound like it adds anything to the content... just annoying
05:09 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> what would 3rd graders do with it?
05:09 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> yeah well
05:10 PM JT-Shop: hard to say it's been a few decades since 3rd grade for me
05:11 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> https://forum.prusa3d.com/?language=en has a forum but no wiki
05:11 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> https://www.wikipedia.org/ has blue and black text on a white background
05:12 PM JT-Shop: FYI the wiki was the way to communicate before the forum and the devs were against a forum...
05:12 PM JT-Shop: oh that and the mailing lists
05:12 PM JT-Shop: it is my fault we have a forum
05:13 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> the forum has all the action now, IRC is just old farts 🙂
05:13 PM JT-Shop: who are you calling an ole fart?
05:14 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> <--- this old fart
05:14 PM JT-Shop: I might be a ye ole fart
05:15 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> https://www.modernwiki.app/ consult the modern wiki style guide
05:15 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> yeah no need to redesign the wiki just make a FF plugins that modernizes it
05:16 PM JT-Shop: does anyone even look at the wiki anymore the data is very old and out of date
05:16 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> it's the beige that makes it very 80's
05:17 PM JT-Shop: should I change it to avocado green?
05:17 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> and in 20 more years will be back in style
05:18 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> as long as you add a repeating avocado background to each page
05:19 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> https://www.ovatures.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Avocado-ovatures.jpg
05:22 PM lcnc-relay: <captainhindsight_.> https://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Latency-Test what decade is this hardware from?
