04:35 LiohAu anybody familiar with ROS URDF files ?
04:51 Jak_o_Shadows sorry
09:22 rue_house I need more acronyms, were gonna beat you up till we get enough of them
19:45 Mushrooshi i forgot who it was I was discussing the Kuratas vs MegaBot fight with
19:45 Mushrooshi but I think I figured out more or less how what I hope it ends up like.
19:46 Mushrooshi I would rather hope it ends up like Robot Wars or Battlebots.
19:46 Mushrooshi and not like "Robot Combat League".
19:47 Mushrooshi I just learned what "Robot Combat League" is and god, its absolute absolute garbage. Fake effects, reality-show fake drama, the fighters dont even design their own bot, its like overengineered Rock Em Sock Em with fake effects marketted to the under-90-IQ audience.
21:26 rue_shop3 well I'm confused
21:27 Loshki Mushrooshi: coming soon to a screen near you: "Naked Robot Combat League"
21:28 rue_shop3 I have a op-amp with a 75Mhz bandwidth
21:28 rue_shop3 and it isn't working as a 250Khz oscillator
22:14 ball Is there a simple, affordable robot arm kit?
22:32 wolfmanjm got a 5amp UBEC from china... as soon as yo uadd a load the output voltage drops to 2v :(
22:32 wolfmanjm guess I'll have to fork out for a real one.
22:34 ace4016 lol
23:01 wolfmanjm yea ordered one from the US, about 5 times more expensive but hopefully will work, I usually have pretty good luck with stuff from china.
