[00:34:39] <stanford_AI> What do you think of our Drone product?
http://adia.tech/
[00:45:13] <Anniepoo_> doesn't the cosmetic shell add weight?
[00:46:36] <Anniepoo_> you talk about delivery, what about regulatory issues?
[00:48:08] <SpeedEvil> I hope that is an intentionally faked hype ad page, rather than representative of a real thing.
[00:48:21] <badtz-maru> SpeedEvil: did you see the news links
[00:49:59] <badtz-maru> whoa weird
[00:50:03] <Anniepoo_> does seem questionable
[00:50:09] <badtz-maru> the page says that it was featured on so many news networks
[00:50:18] <badtz-maru> but I can't find a single story on any of those major networks
[00:51:32] <badtz-maru> oh I guess that gives weight to SpeedEvil's claim that this is intentionally faked
[00:51:36] <Anniepoo_> and read the little white text - they just want your email
[00:51:38] <badtz-maru> cheers
[03:38:48] <Snert> that's not even a pic of a product. It looks like a CAD model.
[03:39:18] <Snert> I declare it vaporware.
[06:55:49] <badtz-maru> Snert: s p a c e o u t
[09:27:31] <rue_house> apps? like, man-hunt?
[09:28:11] <rue_house> isn't the device a bit noisy for ultrasonic sensors?
[09:37:00] <rue_house> thats a lot of work into it, good luck
[18:47:36] <rue_shop3> hmm, dont like putting the Z of the cnc machine on the gantry, you have to extend it down a bunch and I dont like the stability
[18:47:47] <rue_shop3> or the torque on the sliders
[19:34:45] <rue_shop3> oiling a pla-ground steel surface caused the static friction to go up and the dynamic friction to go down.... interesting
[19:36:10] <rue_shop3> have to see how that one ages
[19:52:34] <z64555> too thick of an oil?
[20:03:13] <rue_shop3> pretty thin oil
[20:09:02] <z64555> odd.
[21:11:50] <rue_house> ok, we need a feature robot of the day
[21:11:57] <rue_house> what robot do we feature first
[21:20:38] <z64555> Rosie, from the Jetsons?
[21:28:49] <anniepoo> Robbie from Forbidden Planet
[21:29:32] <anniepoo> Tomorrow lets feature Rosie - working class women on the day of the women's march, good thing to do
[21:29:41] <anniepoo> 8cD
[21:30:16] <anniepoo> >[8cD]= <-- wearing rosie costume
[23:33:33] <jrowe47> has anyone seen any interesting recent use of nylon / fishing string artificial muscles?
[23:53:31] <rue_shop3> I was interested and tried
[23:53:50] <rue_shop3> but they are actually hard to wind, they dont always overbuckle properly
