11:19 rue_house not counterweighted tho
12:17 deshipu rue_house: counterweight adds inertia
12:17 deshipu rue_house: spring is better for that
12:18 deshipu http://www.tobem.com/cyberwar/cloud-integrated-cyber-physical-systems-internet-of-things/
12:19 deshipu buzzword overload
12:42 rue_shop3 sometimes you can and sometimes you cant
12:43 ace4016 ?
12:43 rue_shop3 regarding the robot arm link
12:44 Hyratel which link
12:44 rue_shop3 the robot arm link
12:44 rue_shop3 zlog
12:45 Hyratel I'm confused
12:45 Hyratel what robotic arm
12:46 rue_shop3 did you click the zlog link to see the irc history?
12:47 Hyratel that doesn't... make sense
12:47 ace4016 the kickstarter one i think Hyratel
12:47 rue_shop3 it does, you cant see the link for some reason, but its right there in the log
12:47 Hyratel WILL SOMEONE GIVE ME SOME GODAMN CONTEXT ALREADY. THE LINK DOENS'T SEEM TO CONNECT TO ANYTHING ELSE THAT WAS SAID
12:48 ace4016 we're currently trying to figure that part out
12:48 rue_shop3 Hyratel, it was said a while ago, you have to ignore oin/parts
12:49 rue_shop3 oh it was technically said yesterday

12:50 rue_shop3 hmm
12:50 ace4016 i'm not sure what use i'd have for a robotic arm like that
12:50 rue_shop3 I have the idea, that I shoudl make the software I write that uses malloc, to check the memory block after the alloc and auto avoid bad memory
12:51 Anniepoo pro tip: add "state of the art AI" to any kickstarter project to increase funding by 37.8%
12:51 ace4016 especially as they don't seem to be very precise/accurate and seem to lack repeatability. also, lots of movement jitter
12:51 rue_shop3 ace4016, I made 4, as such can vouch that there is no use, BUT THEY ARE FUNN AS ALL HELL!!!!
12:51 ace4016 lol
12:52 rue_shop3 I have to clear the work table
12:52 rue_shop3 *this* will be work...
15:32 ace4016 hrm, wonder how hard it would be to make a flame sensor myself...
15:32 ace4016 should just be a UV diode with some filtering
18:20 robotust1a hey
18:21 ace4016 hi
18:22 robotust1a why 4016?
18:23 robotust1a are you from japan?
18:24 robotust1a Harada Soichiro
18:24 ace4016 no
18:24 robotust1a china?
18:24 ace4016 it's a year from a story i made when i was in the 4th grade
18:25 robotust1a now you are a 5th year student?
18:26 robotust1a ace4016: any robots?
18:26 ace4016 not at the moment
18:27 ace4016 and i haven't been a student at a school of any sorts for about 5 years now :P
18:27 robotust1a did any in your lfe?
18:27 ace4016 6 rather
18:27 ace4016 i've made robots in the past, yea
18:27 robotust1a many of them?
18:27 ace4016 nay
18:28 ace4016 slowly getting back into it
18:28 robotust1a what is you current plan?
18:30 ace4016 building a kiln to fire technical ceramics
18:30 robotust1a what is kiln
18:30 ace4016 next one is a CNC most likely (unless i can find one in my price range that can do what i need)
18:30 ace4016 kiln is a really hot oven
18:30 robotust1a ok
18:31 robotust1a I did my cnc 2-3 years ago
18:31 robotust1a really spend on it like 1500$ in total
18:31 ace4016 how many axes?
18:31 robotust1a 3
18:32 ace4016 what working area and precision can it do?
18:33 robotust1a max area is about 40x22x10 cm
18:33 robotust1a size I mean
18:34 robotust1a precision theoretical is about 0.004 mm but practical is about 0.02mm
18:34 robotust1a for small parts up to 5 cm
18:35 robotust1a milling aluminium
18:36 ace4016 cool
18:36 robotust1a this is my mill https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwhQ6ab06e0
18:38 robotust1a very useful tool
18:52 ace4016 yea
18:52 ace4016 would be nice to have one
19:11 ace4016 so what are you working on now robotust1a?
