00:19 tsmeow-afk flops
00:21 rrywolf flops next to katsmeow
00:21 furrywolf bbl, going to try to sleep despite all the fucking noise, as I really need sleep.
00:21 katsmeow-afk howed you like my tap page?
00:22 katsmeow-afk i punched the broken tap out, clod flowed the alum with a hammer and punch, and started over, and got good results
00:22 katsmeow-afk clod-cold
00:25 rue_bed ooo where's the tap page
00:25 furrywolf GOD DAMN STUIPID FUCKING B?ITCH. I should just fucking kill the fucking idiot and get this fucking over with.
00:25 furrywolf her fucking tv is so fucking loud my fucking WALL IS VIBRATING.
00:25 rue_bed furrywolf, hey, language
00:25 furrywolf fuck off
00:25 rue_bed go cut the power
00:26 furrywolf her power is from her solar system (consisting entirely of stolen parts, including one of my panels she stole while I was at work), with batteries inside her house.
00:26 katsmeow-afk oh, then paint her panels black
00:26 furrywolf that won't help now.
00:27 furrywolf this is getting fucking ridiculous. I can't even fucking go to bed in my own fucking house.
00:27 rue_bed your sister?
00:27 furrywolf no
00:27 katsmeow-afk the gotcha is it isn't your house?
00:27 rue_bed go take the panel back and take one of the batteries while your at it
00:27 furrywolf some defective whackjob that moved in with the previous residents of her house, then stayed when the rest of them left.
00:28 furrywolf the landlord has been trying to throw her out for years, but every time he tries, she threatens him, and he gives up for a while.
00:28 furrywolf she's never paid a dime of rent.
00:28 katsmeow-afk why do you think i am back in alafuckingbama? the Fla place was never going to be mine, i couldn't call the shots, i didn't outrankt he cats, dogs or FLEAS there
00:29 katsmeow-afk at least i own this place, they cannot make enough noise to bother my sleep, it isn't possible, including shotgun shooting, not in this house
00:29 ace4016 i'd say leave the south, but then you'd pay an arm and leg to live anywhere decent elsewhere
00:29 rue_bed you could also help her get a run of bad luck
00:29 furrywolf I don't have enough money to purchase property.
00:29 katsmeow-afk i don't either, i can't even get a mortgage on this place, and i already one it free and clear!
00:29 furrywolf only reason I moved here was, at near-zero rent, it was the only thing I could afford.
00:29 rue_bed furrywolf, what country you live in again?
00:30 furrywolf usa
00:30 rue_bed ah
00:30 rue_bed why didn't you press charges when she stole your panel?
00:30 ace4016 how'd you get near zero rent?
00:30 furrywolf I can't even fucking pay for an internet connection. property is not an option.
00:30 furrywolf ace4016: work-trade with the landlord.
00:30 tsmeow-afk is shocked rue doesn't have the tap url since she gave it in 2 chan
00:30 ace4016 ah
00:30 rue_bed oh
00:31 rue_bed http://designerthinking.com/broken-tap-hole.html
00:31 furrywolf what the fucking hell am I supposed to fucking do? I wanted to be in bed a fucking hour ago
00:31 rue_bed turn something up louder
00:32 furrywolf I've tried asking her to turn it down, she just yells and does not.
00:32 rue_bed call the cops
00:32 furrywolf then I'll have even less fhance of gong to sleep
00:32 ace4016 invest in ear plugs?
00:32 furrywolf then I get thrown out of the house and live on the street.
00:32 furrywolf ace4016: what part of MY FUCKING WALL IS VIBRATING is hard to understand? they do not eist earplugs that can stop this.
00:33 rue_bed wow you can even see the heatsink crystals
00:33 rue_bed call the police, make a noise compaint
00:33 e4016 sh
00:33 furrywolf <furrywolf> then I get thrown out of the house and live on the street.
00:33 rue_bed hu?
00:33 rue_bed so why the cops gonna throw you out?
00:34 furrywolf this house is not legal to rent, because having to provide your own utilities is considered substandard.
00:34 furrywolf code enforcement here loves reasons to fuck innocent people.
00:34 rue_bed smash thru the wall, destroy the tv, go to bed
00:34 rue_bed its obvious she cant call the cops either
00:34 furrywolf the landlord has told me not to do that, because then she'll call the cops and get everyone in trouble.
00:35 rue_bed shes gonna anyhow
00:35 furrywolf she constantly threatens to call the cops. that's why he won't throw her out.
00:35 rue_bed a legal tennant in a nearby house will complain
00:35 furrywolf there aren't any.
00:35 furrywolf the closest house is vacant and has been for 25 years (thanks to... code enforcement!).
00:35 rue_bed do you have any taps on her power grid?
00:35 furrywolf no.
00:36 rue_bed you have to destroy her power system
00:36 katsmeow-afk yep
00:36 rue_bed how you gonna do it
00:36 furrywolf I have to smash her fucking head in with a blunt object.
00:36 katsmeow-afk AND make sure she cannot retaliate unless it's on camera
00:36 furrywolf it will save the landlord lots of hassle, too.
00:36 rue_bed are the batteries along the common wall of your places
00:36 rue_bed ?
00:37 furrywolf there's 6ft or so between the buildings. I have no idea where her batteries are.
00:37 rue_bed ah, different building
00:37 rue_bed ok, her whole place on the power system?
00:37 rue_bed or just a bar with a few plugs
00:38 rue_bed furrywolf, if its the whole place, make a shorted plug, and go plug it into one of the exterior outlets
00:38 rue_bed I'm sure the inverter will trip before the breakers
00:38 furrywolf her power system consists of a couple of marginal deepcycles she stole from my scrap pile, a solar panel she stole from my roof, a solar panel she stole from my landlord, a broken solar panel I gave her when I first moved here (puts out about 1/10th its rating), a panel she stole from the landlord's friend, and an inverter she stole from the taxpayers, using her foodstamps to barter for cash and buying it online.
00:39 furrywolf there are no outlets. she has no wiring.
00:39 furrywolf she has no income, so everything she owns is stolen in some fashion.
00:39 rue_bed ah, where are the batteries
00:39 furrywolf <furrywolf> there's 6ft or so between the buildings. I have no idea where her batteries are.
00:39 rue_bed your gonna have to find out if you want to solve this
00:40 furrywolf fixing her power is a short-term solution. either fixing her residency here, or fixing her, is the only long-term solutions.
00:40 rue_bed or go throw a rock thru the window with a note taped to it, to turn down the tv
00:40 katsmeow-afk if she is like my neighbors, anything furry does will only make it worse
00:41 rue_bed tommorow when she's away, slip in and use a small knife to cut the leads to the coils in the speakers of her stuff
00:41 rue_bed thru the front grill
00:41 Tom_itx rue_bed
00:41 rue_bed yes
00:41 Tom_itx i got something to show you
00:41 rue_bed ok
00:41 furrywolf she leaves the house, once a month, when her food stamps come in, and she needs to barter them for cash to buy cigarettes with.
00:41 Tom_itx gime a few min here
00:41 furrywolf she won't be leaving the house tomorrow, or any other time for 12 days.
00:42 rue_bed it it how to rebuild an S10 4 speed transmission
00:42 rue_bed furrywolf, your rejecting all our ideas, please stop asking for help
00:42 furrywolf ideas that either won't work or will make things worse should be rejected.
00:43 furrywolf as katsmeow-afk says, most things will make it worse.
00:43 katsmeow-afk he didn't ask for help
00:43 rue_bed kat, engine knocking, octane too high or low?
00:43 katsmeow-afk ummmmmmmm ,, ask furry
00:43 rue_bed then why is he telling us about this problem
00:43 katsmeow-afk cause he is pissed, can't sleep, needs to vent
00:43 rue_bed people tell people about problems cause they want help
00:43 furrywolf knocking can be low octane, lean mixture, overly advanced timing, bad carbon deposits, too hot of plugs.
00:44 rue_bed oh
00:45 katsmeow-afk manual trannies are fairly easy to rebuuild, even without the shop manual, they are mostly just gearboxes, you replace what's broke
00:45 furrywolf rue_bed: how about help disposing of a body? will you do that? maybe you have a van, a roll of carpet, some bricks, and a pier nearby?
00:45 rue_bed i hate it when you people present problems that you will not accept help fixing
00:45 katsmeow-afk bad ideas are not helpful, and should be rejected
00:45 Tom_itx ok gonna get a pic here...
00:45 rue_bed well you tell him a good idea
00:45 rue_bed I am here to help people
00:46 rue_bed dont present me problems if you dont want me help
00:46 rue_bed arg
00:46 rrywolf moves go katsmeow-afk's house, solving both neighbor problems at once - getting away from the bitch here, and being a large, mean wolfy to scare kat's neighbor and his d
00:46 katsmeow-afk assuming she is watching tv or radio over the air, a rf interferrence would kill the sound
00:46 furrywolf no, she downloads crap on her laptop.
00:46 rue_bed hack the laptop
00:46 katsmeow-afk it's not like wifi is secure
00:46 rue_bed she is stealing the internet from you right?
00:47 furrywolf using bittorrent. back when I had an internet connection, I had to ban her from my ap, as she'd use >100% bandwidth 24/7.
00:47 rue_bed furrywolf, and she runs windows
00:47 furrywolf no, not from me. she's probably broken into one of the many WEP-encrypted networks in the area.
00:48 ace4016 she's smart enough to rigg power and steal internets?
00:48 rue_bed well open a connection for her to connect to, when she does, use it to remove the boot sector
00:48 rue_bed put up an open wifi connection and she will switch to it
00:49 theBear just go beat her senseless.... she aint gonna call the cops anymore than you ... she ain't got a way of getting another place to live
00:49 furrywolf ace4016: neither is complicated, and no, she's not smart enough to rig power properly. I gave her a fuse holder and fuse when I first got here, as it was a massive fire hazard, with thin wires running right from the panels (she'd already stolen some) to the batteries with no fuses, diodes, etc.
00:49 furrywolf I didn't want her place burning down and taking mine with it.
00:50 theBear and if you don't, shut the fuck up, i'm with rue on this one
00:50 rue_bed good time to start a fire now then
00:50 furrywolf that wouldn't be very nice to my landlord, now would it?
00:50 rue_bed then the house is nolonger a problem
00:50 rue_bed for him or you
00:50 rue_bed he's got insurance right?
00:50 furrywolf I'll go track him down again tomorrow and yell at him more...
00:50 rue_bed he cant do anyhing
00:50 rue_bed you already said that
00:50 furrywolf no. someone torched his place a few years back, and he lost everything.
00:51 rue_bed if the place burns down, they will blame it on the wiring, the landlord gets his insurance and can make a new place or something
00:51 rue_bed huh
00:51 furrywolf he doesn't believe in insurance, or banks - had all his savings in his house...
00:52 rue_bed tell him to get insurance and you will burn the place down to help out with getting rid of her
00:52 rue_bed tell him she's gonna burn the place down anyhow with the setup she has
00:52 rue_bed so he only owns the houses cause of drug money
00:53 rue_bed stays off the books
00:53 Tom_itx rue_bed, http://tom-itx.dyndns.org:81/~webpage/reprap/nozzle1.jpg
00:53 Tom_itx http://tom-itx.dyndns.org:81/~webpage/reprap/nozzle2.jpg
00:53 Tom_itx http://tom-itx.dyndns.org:81/~webpage/reprap/nozzle3.jpg
00:53 katsmeow-afk it all gets back to drugs :-(
00:53 rue_bed then tell him hes gonna have to use the drug connections to buy a hit
00:53 furrywolf ... huh?
00:53 rue_bed take her out
00:53 furrywolf what do drugs have to do with this?
00:54 ace4016 lets just drop this all and move on; this isn't going anywhere >_>
00:54 rue_bed if it wasn't drug money he would have bank accounts and insurance
00:54 Tom_itx rue_bed, that's a jhead
00:54 furrywolf as far as I know, my neighbor is the only drug user around here.
00:54 rue_bed and he wouldn't own so many houses
00:54 theBear ace4016, i said that a minute ago... with stronger words, didn't work
00:54 rue_bed Tom_itx, how did you do the tiny hole?
00:54 Tom_itx i drilled it
00:55 furrywolf he owns houses because he bought a bunch back when land was cheap. this property has two houses on it, mine and the bitch next door. his main property has ~10 on it, and they pay rent, which is what he lives of.
00:55 theBear with a tiny drill
00:55 rue_bed he dosn't need insurance cuase the losses he risks are tiny compared to how much he makes
00:55 katsmeow-afk how will you heat that huge hunk of alum there?
00:55 Tom_itx it's a #79 cause that's the smallest one i nad
00:55 Tom_itx had*
00:55 Tom_itx .018"
00:55 theBear and sidenote, it's LOTS of fun to beat the shit out of people on drugs... they just don't wanna go down
00:56 rrywolf would look at the nozzles, but already closed browser when planning to go to bed an hour and some
00:56 furrywolf she's a foot shorter than me and half my weight, as well as weak and useless. it would be a one-hit fight.
00:56 theBear even better
00:57 Tom_itx rue_bed i gotta get a die for the external thread tomorrow
00:57 theBear less fun, but you don;t mar your wrench or knuckles
00:57 Tom_itx rue_bed would you like one?
00:57 katsmeow-afk how will you heat that huge hunk of alum there?
00:57 Tom_itx with a 7w resistor
00:58 katsmeow-afk o
00:58 rrywolf remembers that imagemagick's display will fetch urls, much faster than loading fir
00:58 furrywolf lots of insulation!
00:58 Tom_itx 5.6 ohm
00:58 rue_bed tom, is the hole .3mm - .5mm ?
00:59 furrywolf I need to machine some parts, but I don't know how. I could write a program to generate the g-code, but a cad+cam setup would be the proper solution.
00:59 rue_bed Tom_itx, be aware that the official heads use a stainless neck on account of how awefull stainless is at conducting heat
01:00 furrywolf I need a cad program that can do a relatively simple CSG task (subtracting sections of torroids from a block) and a cam program to generate g-code from that.
01:00 rue_bed Tom_itx, looks good tho
01:00 furrywolf cam program needs to be smart enough to let me re-clamp the part twice to get different sides of it.
01:00 Tom_itx rue_bed they use PEEK
01:00 furrywolf any suggestions?
01:01 Tom_itx for an insulator
01:01 rue_bed few different stories, but yes
01:01 rue_bed some use an internal insulator
01:01 tsmeow-afk builds jigs to hold th
01:01 Tom_itx this needed to be light for the delta arm
01:01 furrywolf I have only a 3-axis mill right now; getting both the top and bottom of the part means flipping it over. heh.
01:02 furrywolf same for drilling holes in from the side
01:03 katsmeow-afk furry, fit the hunk in a jig, use an alignment table like Tom did, with roll pins
01:03 furrywolf bbl, I think the noise might be getting quieter, and I can finally go to bed, an hour and a half after I wanted to.
01:03 katsmeow-afk roll pins align really well, bolts clamp things down but align poorly
01:04 rue_bed make half of it with one peice of an aluminum block, then take a brick and throw it thru your neighbours window
01:04 rue_bed through
01:04 Tom_itx rue_bed the hole is close to .35mm
01:05 Tom_itx #79 drill
01:05 rue_bed cool
01:05 rue_bed mines #80
01:05 Tom_itx all i had here
01:05 rue_bed me too
01:05 rue_bed I broke 2
01:05 katsmeow-afk casually walk around here house with a nukebox , door off, powered up
01:05 rue_bed did you peck it?
01:05 Tom_itx i broke 1 when it broke thru the hole
01:05 Tom_itx but i got it out
01:05 katsmeow-afk peck it?
01:05 rue_bed thas how my 2nd brock
01:05 Tom_itx no just drilled slow
01:06 rue_bed peck drilling
01:06 katsmeow-afk o
01:06 Tom_itx on the lath
01:06 Tom_itx e
01:06 rue_bed I just did it straight up
01:06 rue_bed oil?
01:06 Tom_itx not much
01:06 rue_bed I forgot to oil mine
01:06 Tom_itx can't see the hole with too much oil
01:06 Tom_itx i did a little and wiped some offf
01:07 katsmeow-afk shouldn't need to see it
01:08 katsmeow-afk you can't see when the bit hits bottom anyhow, and since the work isn't going anywhere the bit hits the same spot every time
01:20 katsmeow-afk <cough>
01:44 GuShH katsmeow-afk: if the door is off you need to bypass the switches too!
11:31 rue_house is a wireframe library something thats 2d or 3d?
11:31 ace4016 3d usually
11:31 theBear library ? never heard of one, but wireframes are generally 3ed
11:31 theBear 3d
11:31 ace4016 well, actually, i don't know what you mean by wireframe in this case...
11:32 rue_house so my 3d library should have a fn go generate a 2d circles points in 3d?
11:32 theBear heh, 2nd my response then ?
11:32 rue_house /go/to/
11:32 theBear rue_house, we talking cad or raytracing or robotics or what ?
11:32 rue_house general library, I want to make a 3d editor, but want to use wireframe, there are a number of other things I want to use it with
11:34 theBear if it's an editor, like user/gui of some kind style, a 2d circle tool would be handy, but it's only gotta define a circle in 2d, then the next layer would place that in the 3d world
11:34 theBear at least that makes sense to me, normalizing wise
11:34 theBear something like number of points and potentially rad/dia, suppose it depends if yer doing vector at that level
11:35 rue_house if you take a circle your looking at in 2d, and rotate it 90 in 2d space, you come out with a line,
11:35 rue_house I'm interested in making the code to do that
11:35 rue_house my 3d library deals with everything in points
11:36 ace4016 sounds easier to just use a 3d modeler and export or so...
11:36 rue_house I'm torn between generating it as a real curve, or generating apoint set and working with that
11:36 rue_house I want to do it as a real curve
11:36 theBear rue_house, yeah, but if yer just wanna place a circle in a 3d world, you just generate a 2d circle and then place it in 3d land
11:37 rue_house its about where the 3d manipulation is done, I dont want to generate the circle as a point set and rotate it
11:37 rue_house I want to generate a curve thats distorted right for that 3d view
11:41 rue_house huh, its easier to do collision detection in 2d with a polar map of the objects... or a mask
11:42 rue_house hahah SDL's circle fn dons't allow x/y scaling of the circle
11:42 rue_house ah, elipse, good show
11:43 Tom_itx rue_house, did you order a nozzle for your reprap?
11:43 rue_house no I built one
11:43 rue_house !assist projects/reprap/
11:43 tobbor Possibly http://eds.dyndns.org/~ircjunk/projects/reprap/
11:43 Tom_itx would you like one of these?
11:43 rue_house http://eds.dyndns.org/~ircjunk/projects/reprap/p1040477.jpg
11:43 rue_house dont want to change it up yet
11:44 rue_house but I might really want help later
11:44 Tom_itx ok
11:44 Tom_itx looks good
11:44 rue_house I hope it works as well
11:44 Tom_itx all that really matters :)
11:45 Tom_itx what plastic are you gonna start with?
11:45 rue_house I have 2 spools of PLA ($100)
11:46 Tom_itx color?
11:46 rue_house black and green
11:46 Tom_itx 3mm?
11:46 rue_house yes, triff mentioned that 1.75 is more prone to buckle
11:46 Tom_itx i wonder if print quality varies with color
11:46 Tom_itx yeah
11:46 rue_house I think there are minor viscosity and temp differences between the coours
11:47 rue_house you cant draw a 3d circle using a 2d elipse
11:48 Tom_itx what did you glue the resistor in with?
11:49 rue_house heh, heatsink compound?
11:49 Tom_itx some talk about kapton but i dunno how they use it
11:49 Tom_itx stuff it in the end to wedge it in place?
11:49 rue_house I coiled some mylar sheet in there to tighten it up
11:49 rue_house mylar?
11:49 theBear what are you gluing yours with mr tom ?
11:49 rue_house kapton sheet
11:50 Tom_itx elmers glue
11:50 Tom_itx :)
11:50 Tom_itx theBear i'm not making one just yet
11:50 rue_house I tried epoxy and it didn't set right
11:50 rue_house your cnc is fast enough
11:50 Tom_itx epoxy would melt anyway
11:50 rue_house pretty sure
11:51 Tom_itx getting the software to work on linuxcnc might be an issue
11:51 rue_house (fiberglass resin)
11:51 rue_house no, its all G code
11:51 rue_house prolly not too many custom commands to deal with
11:51 Tom_itx what's fiberglass melt at?
11:52 rue_house the repraps bed size is 200mmx200mm
11:52 theBear oooh, there's that thermal glue that cheap computer heatsinks use, like mobo chipsets... hmm
12:19 Tom_itx should reprap be done in a well ventilated area? does the plastic give off fumes when it's melted?
12:20 theBear at a guess, probably some, but not much more than a glue gun
12:34 GuShH_ Tom_itx: as a rule of thumb anything that gives of fumes should be vented, doesn't matter what everyone says about that particular material... it's your life, not theirs.
12:34 GuShH_ of/off
12:35 GuShH_ as a side note.. I'm looking to buy a reprap kit, already asked a few people around...
12:35 Tom_itx depends what you're after
12:36 Tom_itx mendlemax is a good one
12:36 rue_house GuShH_, if your not gonna do a bunch yourself your looking at $1000-$2000
12:36 GuShH_ the plastic parts
12:36 Tom_itx i've watched it's progress
12:36 rue_house I'm at $300 so far
12:36 GuShH_ rue_house: locally bought it costs over that.
12:36 GuShH_ there are weasels selling them already
12:36 rue_house locate crcle.asm
12:36 GuShH_ on the other hand I'd rather have a cnc bed with replacable heads
12:37 theBear plastic parts you ask someone in irc to print them for you
12:37 GuShH_ theBear: which is what I did!
12:37 theBear !
12:37 GuShH_ theBear: of course I would pay for the shipping, and other expenses.
12:37 theBear hehe
12:37 GuShH_ I'm not asking for freebies
12:37 theBear not like plastic parts and plastic cost a lot
12:37 Tom_itx i have the cnc
12:37 GuShH_ theBear: it shouldn't though
12:37 GuShH_ prices went up because of the reprap
12:37 theBear also not like even 'good irc buddies' are gonna make them for free AND post them
12:37 Tom_itx dunno if i wanna use it for that or not
12:37 GuShH_ in small quantities at least.
12:37 Tom_itx i've got the psu for it i believe
12:38 GuShH_ theBear: I've been a good IRC buddy to at least one person and sent him free parts once
12:38 theBear hmmm, i haven't asked or looked for a few years now, i think last i was planning and inquiring mendel was almost a reality/finished design
12:38 GuShH_ because I'd rather share than hoarde
12:39 GuShH_ also had to send it twice because the post returned it for no good reason, but my word is my word.
12:39 theBear GuShH_, and some people do, rue is one, and i don't like to talk about past unpleasantness, but i owe mr tom for some design... at the same time, asking for postage money isn't unreasonable, specially when free stuff is involved
12:39 GuShH_ Tom_itx: If I'm going to invest 1k or more I'd rather have some flexibility, even if that means making most of it myself
12:39 GuShH_ theBear: true
12:40 GuShH_ what exactly can you make "commercially" with one of these repraps anyway?
12:40 GuShH_ aside from parts for another unit.
12:40 GuShH_ If I had the chance of milling wood I could recover the investment in a short period of time...
12:41 theBear hard enough to think of enough private applications to make it 'viable', letalone commercially
12:41 Tom_itx all you gotta do is idle in #reprap a while and you'll find out what is ok and what isn't
12:41 GuShH_ what do you mean?
12:41 theBear tho i suppose if yer a good business person...for example a company i used to deal with a lot brought round a demo of a next-year product for general discussion/critique that was in a printed one-off case
12:41 GuShH_ Hmm it's sunny out I should be changing the rear brake pads an discs instead of IRCing
12:42 GuShH_ (sunny after two weeks of nonstop rain)
12:42 theBear i should be able to afford some cables this week, i can get off the bmx and back on the mtb :)
12:42 GuShH_ theBear: Doesn't seem like the quality is up there for a commercial product in most cases, and you're talking small volume, high cost. This is just a toy for the most part...
12:43 GuShH_ And it's meant for prototyping, mostly. As you would inject for big volumes...
12:43 GuShH_ high setup cost, but low overall cost for the product.
12:43 GuShH_ - if you move volumes -
12:43 theBear once it's built (which can be very cheap) the costs aren't that high, and the quality can be quite reasonable from what i've seen
12:43 GuShH_ only if you are all day long adjusting it
12:44 GuShH_ Again, I think the best idea is to have a flexible cnc bed with different "heads"
12:44 GuShH_ so I can get the most out of the money
12:44 theBear mmm, i like to think i've got enough technical and mechanical skills these days to do that relatively quickly and not have to tune it for a long time
12:44 GuShH_ it's mostly about the quality of the parts you use
12:44 theBear mmm, multi is definately not a bad idea, just means that the base cnc has to be MUCH bigger and tougher
12:44 GuShH_ yes
12:44 GuShH_ and bigger steppers.
12:44 Tom_itx from what i see you need fairly fast x y axis
12:46 GuShH_ The only reasonable steppers I can get are some nema 24s with 3n-m torque :/
12:46 Tom_itx most are using nema 17 for reprap
12:47 GuShH_ they may not even be an option, due to availability issues.
12:47 theBear erg, i need a rest... i see jou guys later, mang
12:47 GuShH_ but even the nema24 costs about 100 usd each here.
12:47 ShH_ fist bumps the
12:47 theBear word, brother man :)
12:47 GuShH_ lol
12:47 Tom_itx you can get 4 or 5 17 for that
12:48 theBear cya tomorrow
12:48 GuShH_ Tom_itx: in wonderland, which isn't argentina though.
12:48 GuShH_ this place is like cuba, but feels like russia.
12:49 GuShH_ someone needs to learn how to use a rifle, if you get what I mean.
12:49 GuShH_ but since most of the population are drones, it's not going to happen.
12:54 GuShH_ rue_house: The hardest part seems to be the "fuser", are you still working on your design?
12:54 GuShH_ conceptually it all looks very simple, but reality is quite different :p
12:56 rrywolf flops next to katsmeow-afk and s
12:58 GuShH_ So, on eBay a certain honestfirefighter wants to bring the deal outside of ebay, hilarious.
12:58 ShH_ wipes tear
12:58 furrywolf I'm too fucking god damn tired to do anything.
12:59 GuShH_ Does it have anything to do with the neighbour?
12:59 furrywolf yes. it does.
12:59 furrywolf bbl, going to try tracking the landlord down.
13:01 furrywolf bleh, I'll go track him down later. it costs me $15 in gas to get there, and I'll be heading that direction later and can combine it.
13:05 furrywolf bbl
13:17 rue_house katsmeow-afk, theBear ! I just worked it out!
13:17 rue_house osciloscope!
13:26 GuShH_ rue_house: http://www.ebay.com/itm/220626745594?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
13:26 rue_house FREE SHIPPING!
13:32 rue_house I'm working on making my computers more effortless to work with
13:35 Tom_itx good luck with that one
13:36 rue_house I got passwoordless logins working on them
13:36 rue_house using rsa keys
13:37 rue_house because I use a standard filesystem layout, I'm thinking of custom navigation commands
13:37 rue_house fpc to go to /files/programming/c/
13:38 rue_house fdp /files/doc/pdf
14:06 Squint fo to close popups
14:06 Squint I have an aliased command for each project to jump to that projects directory
14:34 rue_house what are popups?
15:01 rue_house its missing someting
17:52 GuShH_ So... I take the wheel out, the pads out, the disc out.... grab the new disc, guess what?... it's the wrong one.
17:52 ShH_ would like to see the store on
17:53 GuShH_ the diameter is fine but it's not deep enough, so it won't even fit.
17:53 GuShH_ pisses me off, what a waste of time.
17:55 GuShH_ at least the new pads are the right ones, but of course I can't use them with the old discs
22:49 rue_house ok ! I added polar to rectangular and rectangular to polar functions to the 2d library
22:50 DagoRed cool
22:51 rue_house point2d_t * cart2polar(point2d_t *p, point2d_t cart);
22:51 rue_house point2d_t * polar2cart(point2d_t *p, point2d_t polar);
22:51 rue_house and I unified the square and degrees /radians conversion functions/macros
22:51 DagoRed Is this for the 3d printer?
22:53 theBear add a polar bear ! like the opengl teapot, little bonus
23:00 DagoRed heh
23:12 rue_house partly, I'm trying to make a wireframe library
23:39 GuShH_ theBear: polar bear? what about bipolar bears?
23:39 theBear heh, well played sir
23:39 theBear wonder if he got a mirror function in there yet
23:39 theBear or at least male/female symbols
23:40 ShH_ eyes a non-working espresso machine auc
23:40 theBear they aint hard to fix, but commercial ones the pumps aint cheap either
23:40 theBear gotta go... cya later
23:41 GuShH_ heh doesn't say what's wrong, but the price is very low... I just gotta figure out how to pick it up
23:41 GuShH_ being at the other side of town and stuff.
23:43 theBear ahh yes, a problem of logistical proportions
23:43 GuShH_ :(
23:52 katsmeow-afk i can get Tiggr to understand : Cattle are the most common type of large domesticated ungulates.
23:52 katsmeow-afk but not : Cattle (colloquially cows) are the most common type of large domesticated ungulates.
23:52 GuShH_ Tiggr is some form of pet software project of yours?
23:53 katsmeow-afk because of the number of ways (over 16,000) wiki uses colloquially or colloquial
