10:58 SquirrelCZECH hmm
10:58 SquirrelCZECH what was the name?
10:59 SquirrelCZECH RifRaf mabe?
10:59 SquirrelCZECH I know that someone made huge modifications to reprap here
11:01 Tom_itx rifraf
11:01 SquirrelCZECH and he is not here :-
11:01 SquirrelCZECH :-/
11:02 SquirrelCZECH hmmm, he finished the X carriage
17:20 rue_bed SquirrelCZECH, Triffid_Hunter
17:20 rue_bed oh rifraf is doing one too
17:20 rue_bed I, starting to suspect anyone who is anyone mods the hell out of their machine at the second step
19:46 ShH wonders if curious and rifraf are standing in line to get the new ip
20:17 rue_bed I feel like dice, that have been shaken in a tube with electrodes that zap them when they land
20:21 GuShH rue_bed: quit drinking then
20:28 R0b0t1 GuShH: "You put GPS trackers on cars without a warrant?! The government is overstepping itself!"
20:28 R0b0t1 2013: "You mean I can have TWO tracking devices? And they'll take my fingerprints?"
20:29 GuShH heheh
20:29 GuShH of course apple says they won't log your fingerprints
20:29 GuShH we both know that's bullshit
20:29 GuShH otoh they should only be storing the 1D profile not the actual fingerprint, but apple is apple.
20:30 GuShH either way you'd have to be insane to keep on upgrading your phone over little crap like that
20:45 R0b0t1 Well from what I've seen
20:45 R0b0t1 insane people are the type that buy apple products
20:45 R0b0t1 mainly to show off, I guess
20:46 GuShH to show off their insanity.
20:46 GuShH and stupidity
21:07 ShH hands Faek the new ip
21:07 Faek But i already have an ipad
21:07 Faek Twas free
21:08 GuShH you need the latest
21:08 GuShH newest
21:08 GuShH hipsterest
21:08 Faek Haha
21:08 GuShH baristarist
21:08 GuShH did you get it free with a broken "something"
21:08 GuShH or just from someone who hates you in general
21:08 Faek Nah free for doing a science degree
21:08 GuShH Because I would only gift apple products to people I hate.
21:09 GuShH Faek: which ipad anyway
21:09 Faek Ipad 2
21:09 Faek 16gb 3G model - not that i have 3g
21:09 GuShH here's my ipad experience... used the first (brother's) it was crap you couldn't even watch a video without having a local server converting and streaming it for you
21:10 GuShH used the 2 at the store when it came out, crashed after 20 seconds (browsing) ... I've only stepped an apple store once ever since, just to laugh at their products.
21:11 GuShH what's the latest? 3 something?, my brother seems to be glued to that thing
21:11 GuShH must be some people's best friend...
21:11 GuShH specially in the bathroom
21:12 Faek Yeah video has ti br in certain formats in order to play
21:12 Faek I jailbroke mine and now i can stream any format
21:13 GuShH quite frankly I'm not impressed with the iphone screen anyway
21:13 GuShH compared to the latest samsung galaxy
21:14 GuShH I don't know if you've had them side to side, but the iphone looks like crap by comparison, even with the brightness on maximum, displaying the same image
21:14 GuShH retina my balls.
21:15 Faek Ipad 2 screen is the last before retina tech
21:15 GuShH which they didn't develop whatsoever
21:15 GuShH apple just buys off technology and pretends they came up with it.
21:16 GuShH if they came up with a rugged version of the s4 I would buy it .. or the s5 whenever it comes out.
21:37 R0b0t1 GuShH, I am wanting to get a general tablet
21:37 R0b0t1 I want to get back into coding. I had some UI tweaks I wanted to try out for coding
21:37 R0b0t1 *gasp*
21:37 R0b0t1 On a tablet?
21:37 R0b0t1 Indeed.
22:10 GuShH R0b0t1: whatever floats your boat :p
22:10 GuShH MrCurious: so, any of your buddies weld?
22:11 MrCurious apparently that is negative
22:11 GuShH your friends suck
22:11 MrCurious 1 responded that he may know someone who knows someone
22:11 GuShH right, that's a no basically :p
22:11 MrCurious i do have one friend who weld's
22:11 MrCurious but he lives in bumble fuck nowhere
22:11 MrCurious argentina
22:12 ShH senses a lot of fastened alu in MrCurious' fu
22:12 MrCurious and how
22:12 GuShH aaw we fwendz?
22:12 MrCurious you haev a welder?
22:12 GuShH I've been trying to buy scrap alu... nobody sells it, everyone buys it.
22:12 GuShH technically two welders
22:13 GuShH but if you really want to weld I could find some inspiration for you
22:14 GuShH http://nathan-lee.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/welding.jpg
22:14 MrCurious tonight, only 5% of new york'ers voted for wiener
22:15 GuShH you know what's amazing, the dude holding the two parts with his bare hand right next to the arc. I get burns with double insulated leather gloves because I use a TIG technique but I don't have a tig finger (basically a fancy heat shield for your finger)
22:16 GuShH in fact I've already ruined a pair because of that, it's full of holes now
22:17 GuShH http://www.weldingtipsandtricks.com/images/hotfinger-tillman-tig-glove.jpg << any idea what material it may be?
22:17 MrCurious cant you make a tig finger
22:17 GuShH out of what, I don't know what it's made of
22:19 ShH puts his R&D ha
22:20 GuShH seems fiberglass or similar... like radiator hose sleeving
22:20 GuShH http://www.heatshieldproducts.com/heavy-duty/hd-heat-shield-sleeves/hd-hose-sleeve
22:21 GuShH some people say it's "nomex" but that's mainly a brand as well
22:24 GuShH bah can't source it locally
22:25 R0b0t1 It's fiberglass weave
22:25 R0b0t1 or, I have some fiberglass weave that looks exactly like it
22:25 GuShH Looking at welding forums they say it's not
22:25 GuShH And they have it
22:25 GuShH I don't...
22:26 GuShH It's some sort of heat shield sleeving, no doubt about it. Just trying to find something similar that I can purchase here
22:26 GuShH I don't need to order it overseas knowing it's just a chunk of sleeving folded over itself.
22:27 R0b0t1 I am like 80% sure it's just really thick fiberglass fabric
22:27 R0b0t1 if you can buy it outside of the welding market I've no idea but I have a roll of it somewhere
22:27 GuShH looking at exhaust wraps and such but I can't find any either
22:29 GuShH these guys have all sorts of neat stuff... http://www.heatshieldproducts.com/heavy-duty/hd-heat-shield-sleeves
