12:41 AM rue_mohr: I HAVE DONE IT1
12:44 AM Jak_o_Shadows: ?
12:44 AM rue_mohr: I have designed a 3db audio amp, thats got two 1/8" stereo jacks, and ITS USB POWERED
12:44 AM rue_mohr: I will have to work hard, I NEED A LOT OF THESE
12:44 AM Jak_o_Shadows: 3db is quite a bit.
12:44 AM rue_mohr: almost every freaking stupid audio system I have is a few db short of what I need out of it
12:44 AM Jak_o_Shadows: I have the opposite problem
12:44 AM rue_mohr: then I wont have to max out EVERY SINGLE VOLUME everywhere
12:44 AM Jak_o_Shadows: I have the laptop headphones at 1%. The PC headphones at like, 18%
12:59 AM rue_mohr: oops, I forgot to edit off the signature that says the invoice is a million dollars, negotiable when I sent off an invoice to someone...
12:59 AM rue_mohr: nobody ever scrolls to the bottom of an email anymore, right?
01:35 AM z64555: rue_mohr: you had better follow up asap
04:37 AM capasitore: Hi, I'm trying to capture color pointclouds but I'm a bit out of my comfort zone with this problem, if someone could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated. I'm using a setup with a mounted line scan camera and a laser pointing downwards to the object being scanned.
05:50 AM Tom_L: rue_mohr, the table will be ~30" wide so probably a bit less than 30"
05:50 AM Tom_L: just a guess though since i've not used drag chain
06:56 AM SpeedEvil: capasitore: ? Not sure what the problem is. Work out where the LASER says your point of interest is, work out the geometry to work out where/when you need to sample the linescan camera to pick it up
06:56 AM SpeedEvil: Colour the LASER point approprately
08:54 AM rue_mohr: Tom_L, usually about half
08:54 AM rue_mohr: no wait
08:54 AM rue_mohr: half * 2
08:54 AM rue_mohr: no, half * 2 / 2
08:54 AM rue_mohr: + a bit
09:02 AM rue_mohr: I wonder how the beer throwing robots doing
12:28 PM robotustra: hi
07:49 PM rue_mohr: when I wake up I'm gonna make my 3db amp
08:08 PM Tom_L: goin deaf?
08:09 PM ace4016: probably because of his resistance to wearing PPE :P
08:09 PM ace4016: (i don't know if that's actually true)
08:31 PM anonnumberanon: deshipu, what's new?
10:50 PM rue_shop3: crazy amount of work for one little stereo amp
10:50 PM rue_shop3: would help if I didnt have to scan 12 pcb's to find 4 2k 0805 resistors
11:35 PM anonnumberanon: Qualifiers for the Robo-One 30 competition, 2 hours long, epic robot goodness (for those of use who enjoy these robots):
11:35 PM anonnumberanon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwy_E4PHm6U&sns=em
11:37 PM rue_mohr: ok I ordered a bunch of usb connectors to use for power for misc projects
11:39 PM orlock: rue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMeh2jTty_A skip to 1:19
11:40 PM rue_mohr: haha
11:43 PM anonnumberanon: I'm doing an experiment. Installing Ubuntu on this laptop that I will give to my roommate.

11:43 PM anonnumberanon: Let's see how he does with it.

11:56 PM anonnumberanon: good find
11:57 PM anonnumberanon: although beware i think this one does not have an IMU
11:57 PM anonnumberanon: so it may not be able to automatically balance
