[01:50:53] <XXCoder> morning hazzy-lab
[01:52:53] <hazzy-lab> morning XXCoder
[01:54:41] <XXCoder> whats up
[01:56:23] <hazzy-lab> Not much, just working on making a better probe screen
[01:56:54] <XXCoder> probe gui?
[01:56:59] <hazzy-lab> so far I can call a sub: https://youtu.be
[01:57:01] <hazzy-lab> yes
[01:57:06] <hazzy-lab> baby steps :D
[01:58:17] <XXCoder> interesting
[01:58:20] <XXCoder> your video?
[01:58:33] <hazzy-lab> yeah
[01:58:57] <hazzy-lab> just a few minutes old
[01:59:27] <hazzy-lab> What I am truing to do it making possible to pass args to a subroutine from a GUI
[01:59:34] <hazzy-lab> trying*
[02:00:46] <hazzy-lab> The that will be used as the basis of a probe screen like this: https://matrix.org
[02:01:11] <XXCoder> that looks like decent gui yeah
[02:02:00] <CaptHindsight> my eyes
[02:02:05] <CaptHindsight> ah my eyes
[02:02:14] <CaptHindsight> :)
[02:02:42] <XXCoder> dmn we didnt add enough gray text on gray background
[02:02:56] <XXCoder> or maybe neon green on darker neon green background?
[02:03:04] <XXCoder> ;)
[02:03:48] <hazzy-lab> lol
[02:04:12] <hazzy-lab> That is an ugly screen, but is is a mach3 screen, so what do you expect?
[02:04:13] <hazzy-lab> xD
[02:06:44] <hazzy-lab> 2am here and I'm covered in oil and grease, better go take a shower and get some sleep
[02:06:45] <hazzy-lab> gn8
[02:07:05] <XXCoder> night
[02:07:49] <hazzy-lab> shoot, but there is still coffee left
[02:08:55] <hazzy-lab> not any more ;)
[02:15:28] <Wolf__> probe routine is relevant to my interests
[02:15:52] <XXCoder> i wanna probe some 3d models with it also
[02:26:24] -!- IchGucksLive has joined #linuxcnc
[02:26:24] <IchGucksLive> hi all
[02:26:40] <IchGucksLive> XXCoder, you get faster andbetter results with your smartphone
[02:27:08] <XXCoder> oh 3d shape scanner yeah I know of such
[02:27:27] <IchGucksLive> Wolf__, only touch probe Z or XY
[02:27:52] <IchGucksLive> Wolf__, i made 5 Buttons and did it that way
[02:27:54] <Wolf__> renishaw so yes
[02:28:31] <IchGucksLive> you can make a entry field that graps the tool diameter and caculate on this
[02:28:51] <IchGucksLive> and a M code reloads the screen
[02:29:10] <IchGucksLive> so you are at the probe end at the realtime
[02:29:45] <IchGucksLive> XXCoder, you can get it also free ofline
[02:32:32] <XXCoder> offline?
[02:34:44] <IchGucksLive> 123D is autodesk only online
[02:35:12] <XXCoder> ah I dont plan to use autodesk
[02:36:47] <IchGucksLive> insight3d.sourceforge.net
[02:38:57] <IchGucksLive> this is for height modells of face onyl http://cvl-demos.cs.nott.ac.uk
[02:40:14] <XXCoder> thats pretty cool
[02:40:43] <XXCoder> im pretty sure its a requirement for androids someday, so they can figure what they are seeing, in 3d world

[13:48:12] <miss0r> I just a a fun little task at hand. I got a 1948 two stroke moped single cylinder motor started. Remarkably good shape :) Now I will see what it'll take to turn the rusted heap of a chassis into something presentable :D
[13:49:00] <hazzy-lab> miss0r: Sweet!
[13:50:28] <miss0r> Yeah. it was pretty fun. I threw together a small bracked adapter so I could start it with a cordless drill. The moped it came from was basically a motorized bike, so you had to paddle it up to speed before releasing the clutch to engage the motor
[13:50:38] <miss0r> That was not an option :)
[13:52:19] <CaptHindsight> what is the life expectancy of a cordless drill used under fresh water?
[13:53:18] <hazzy-lab> CaptHindsight: quite long :D
[13:53:33] <CaptHindsight> 1000 years?
[13:54:03] <hazzy-lab> I made a RC boat with a drill for the motor, it ran great for a long time
[13:54:24] <hazzy-lab> The motor was submerged for "cooling"
[13:54:28] <hazzy-lab> ;)

[14:10:23] <jesseg> hazzy-dev, under fresh water I presume :D
[14:11:49] <jesseg> CaptHindsight, actually the motor would probably run a while under fresh water, the electronic speed control module however may die on contact or soon thereafter.. your mileage may vary. Conditions apply :P

[14:17:49] <hazzy-lab> Not so easy underwater
[14:18:14] <hazzy-lab> jesseg: Yes, fresh water\

[16:01:22] <hazzy-lab> real real, quite. kinda unusual for a staterday
[16:03:18] <CaptHindsight> we need more users in cooler climates
[16:04:01] <gloops> this is a cooler climate
[16:04:15] <gloops> when it isnt 96f
[16:04:17] <CaptHindsight> used to be
[16:04:32] <CaptHindsight> that fake climate change has changed it
[16:04:49] <gloops> nah, this is only a flash in the pan
[16:05:02] <CaptHindsight> gods punishment for leaving the EU
[16:05:16] <gloops> if we ever leave
[16:05:36] <gloops> did you see the glorius president of the EU at nato summit?

[16:05:52] <gregcnc> http://www.freedomworks.org
[16:06:14] <CaptHindsight> it's all in that book written by god
[16:06:37] <gloops> the aliens only visit in the hottest years
[16:07:51] <CaptHindsight> who wants to visit a cold planet, duh
[16:08:17] <gregcnc> like visiting North Dakota in January
[16:08:17] <gloops> reptiles probably wouldnt
[16:08:41] <gloops> highly likely that other intelligent species are reptiles, not mammals
[16:09:03] <gregcnc> maybe they are heating the planet to make it more habitable
[16:09:13] <gloops> maybe
[16:09:31] <CaptHindsight> reptile fruit hybrids
[16:10:11] <gloops> there are signs that this ecological era is coming to an end
[16:11:10] <gregcnc> it was a good run
[16:12:20] <gloops> luckily machines dont mind 40C
[16:12:53] <Tom_L> well i'm headin out in the heat to prove out this program i think
[16:14:50] <gloops> ive been practising with blender on and off, slowly getting the hang of it

[16:30:58] <gloops> for decor and any kind of artistic modelling really, the vector based drawing apps are wholly inadequate

[16:32:08] <CaptHindsight> I prefer tempra paint and brush for that
[16:32:52] <gloops> i dont like sculpting, i know a lot use it but you dont have the same control
[16:34:58] <gloops> only thing is you need a clear sharp head for modelling, and its just been too hot and muggy to concentrate
[16:37:55] <CaptHindsight> how did people sit and concentrate before air conditioning or cooler weather?
[16:38:08] <CaptHindsight> ice baths?
[16:39:29] <CaptHindsight> can a person train themselves to concentrate in hot and humid conditions?
[16:39:48] <gloops> they had sabs wafting them with ostrich feathers and palm leaves
[16:40:23] <XXCoder> CaptHindsight: they grew up in it, its just fine lol
[16:40:25] <Rab> They didn't move to places like Phoenix AZ.
[16:40:36] <XXCoder> I grew up poor. no AC
[16:41:01] <gloops> its true, the people trapped in ice regions were the innovators, very little creativity in hot climes
[16:41:32] <CaptHindsight> the internet wasn't invented in Mexico was it
[16:41:51] <CaptHindsight> or Cambodia
[16:42:35] <CaptHindsight> besides tropical disease what has ever been invented in hot and humid?
[16:42:47] <gloops> not a lot
[16:43:50] <gloops> we'll just have to work in the winter only
[16:43:51] <CaptHindsight> wasn't one of those nordic countries the hub of cellphones before Samsung and Apple invented rounded corners
[16:44:03] <XXCoder> winter will be shorter
[16:44:39] <gloops> it wasnt this year
[16:44:47] <gloops> record winter followed by record summer
[16:46:05] <CaptHindsight> damn libtards with their climate propaganda
[16:46:54] <gloops> its just the natural cycle, happens every 50 years or so
[16:47:30] <gloops> look at the bible - 7 years famine followed by 7 years plenty
[16:47:31] <CaptHindsight> same for CO2 levels, made up science mumbo jumbo
[16:48:01] <CaptHindsight> that was because Moses lost his sandals
[16:49:35] <XXCoder> ... said frog sitting in slowly boiling water
[16:49:40] <gloops> well, an ice age is due whatever man does
[16:50:04] <gloops> even if the temps are climbing at this moment, the long term decline cannot be stopped
[16:50:23] <CaptHindsight> well really the Pharaoh of Egypt hid them
[16:50:38] <CaptHindsight> they used to kid really big in those days
[16:51:15] <gloops> cold is a stimulant, cold makes you think and get up and do something
[16:51:32] <gloops> heat is the opposite, your brain shuts down to save water
[16:51:54] <gloops> your head is nothing more than a giant radiator
[16:52:26] <Deejay> gn8
[16:52:27] <XXCoder> thats not true. that 80% from head? test was very cold room, person was wearing very warm coat and clothes but no hat
[16:52:52] <XXCoder> of course head was radating 80% of heat. much more tests were in nude. heat radition was much more even.
[16:53:00] <CaptHindsight> speak for yourself
[16:53:01] <gloops> it becomes obvious if you try wearing a hat XXCoder
[16:53:20] <CaptHindsight> without a head people would overheat and die
[16:53:32] <XXCoder> nah they would rapidly cool
[16:53:40] <gloops> about 80% of the brain is never used you know
[16:53:46] <CaptHindsight> that how it works
[16:53:53] <XXCoder> to room temperate. after all dead dont generate heat
[16:53:59] <gloops> it could well be that larger brains evolved simply to control body temp
[16:53:59] <XXCoder> gloops: also a myth'
[16:54:09] <gloops> nothing to do with intelligence
[16:54:11] <XXCoder> we use 100% of brain at all time

[16:54:29] <XXCoder> lol
[16:54:56] <gloops> XXCoder you can do most things with a brain the size of a hazelnut
[16:55:26] <CaptHindsight> speak for yourself :)
[16:56:35] <CaptHindsight> I'm proud of my hazelnut brain
[16:57:56] <gloops> well the reptilian brain stem, which is good enough for fish and crocodiles is just a knotty bunch of nerve endings - we could probably survive just using that
[16:58:37] <gloops> the neocortex is a very recent addition, only a few mm of grey much on the outside

[17:05:54] <XXCoder> who said evolution has to make sense?
[17:06:00] <XXCoder> its a blind process
[17:06:44] <tiwake> answersingenesis also says that it does not make sense

[17:07:54] <gloops> yes thats something to consider tiwake
[17:08:06] <gloops> im quite open to creation theories
[17:08:32] <XXCoder> creation is far too small minded, failing to consider how large universe is.
[17:08:33] <tiwake> gloops: nothing I've seen does not fit the model
[17:09:33] <XXCoder> if I was a god, I would rather come up with physics complex enough to have intellegance arise than make everything myself directly.
[17:09:45] -!- ziper has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[17:10:03] <gloops> i suppose it depends on the creation theory
[17:11:06] <gloops> tiwake does yours use a general framework like that or did the creator design every detail?
[17:13:08] <tiwake> gloops: designed to be flexible and structured at the same time? because literally everything is like that... biological and non-biological systems

[17:16:02] <tiwake> genius
[17:16:50] <tiwake> *and
[17:16:55] <gloops> unless it isnt windy
[17:18:07] <tiwake> though if it does spill, there will be a lot of unhappy people... which is a different kind of hazard
[17:22:07] <XXCoder> thats nice idea lol

[18:57:28] <hazzy-lab> How does one check if an arg was passed to a sub?
[18:58:12] <hazzy-lab> Seems like the right thing to use would be EXISTS, but I can't get it to work
[19:00:34] <hazzy-lab> one problem is that EXISTS only takes a named parameter, so I can't pass it the numbered parameter that gets passed to the sub directly

[19:38:35] <XXCoder> stock?
[19:38:41] <XXCoder> dunno I dont use sheetcam
[19:39:39] <tjb1> found it, you are correct
[19:42:19] <XXCoder> nice
[19:42:26] <XXCoder> correct by pure luck lol

[19:44:04] <XXCoder> okay it was SLIGHLTLY more than luck, colored in shape reminded me of freecad stock display (not same color but same idea)
[19:57:05] <tjb1> its rainin sideways
[19:57:06] <tjb1> damn
[19:57:20] <XXCoder> its ... warm here
[19:59:01] <tjb1> only 70 here now
[19:59:21] <XXCoder> my room is 81f its hotter outside
[19:59:49] <tjb1> heh im the opposite, 81 inside
[20:00:02] <tjb1> but not very humid, ac was on most of day just got tired of listening to it
[20:00:03] <XXCoder> it'll correct itself here evenually

[21:25:33] <tjb1> Anyone know what this means in sheetcam post? "if(endX > 1e17 and endY > 1e17) then return end" - specifically the 1e17?
[21:30:37] <hazzy-lab> tjb1: Is that after a trig functions or something like that?
[21:30:50] <hazzy-lab> Probably checking for infinity
[21:31:24] <tjb1> hazzy-lab: https://pastebin.com line 140
[21:36:28] <hazzy-lab> tjb1: Yeah, they are checking it the xend and yend values are very large, and returning it so, probably to prevent the math.hypot call from failing

[22:14:36] <XXCoder> interesting! https://interestingengineering.com
[22:14:41] <XXCoder> boring bricks. very interesting/
[22:15:27] <XXCoder> looks like easy way to do rammed earth structures
[22:16:35] <infornography> boring
[22:16:44] <XXCoder> yep. boring company.
[22:17:22] <XXCoder> i was slighting tempted by boring flamethrower but nah too much money for toy
[22:19:13] <XXCoder> whats amazing about those boring bricks is its mostly dirt with little concerete mixed in
[22:19:17] <XXCoder> so its 10 cent each bricl
[22:19:56] <XXCoder> I think they invented it to use up soil from boring tunnels
[22:19:58] <infornography> that is not boring, that's pretty sweet
[22:20:08] <XXCoder> yep. boring company is pretty sweet
[22:20:17] <XXCoder> if I had money I'd have invested

[22:51:42] <tjb1> rgb lights in the tunnel? really
[22:54:16] <XXCoder> guess so
[22:55:25] -!- HSD has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[22:56:58] <XXCoder> there was research that shows that tunnels drivers have accients because of boredom
[22:57:26] <tjb1> dance party
[22:57:29] <XXCoder> they tested on lots of stuff and found out one of causes is lights flickering and changeless stuff. so they added "shows" after certain distances
[22:57:50] <XXCoder> and changed spacing of light (1/3 as bright, but 3 times as many lights)
[22:57:54] <XXCoder> and it worked
[22:58:02] <tjb1> my THC has feature cree[
[22:59:21] <tjb1> Maybe I can add output testing through the e-stop button
[23:04:23] <tjb1> I really need a new way to handle menus on the 4x20

[23:07:13] <XXCoder> you know you have gone too far if it includes kitchen sink
[23:09:57] <tjb1> it just seems so ugly to use setcursor all the time and print spaces just to clear the lcd
[23:12:36] <tjb1> and when I print the spaces, I have to do setcursor again to print something in that space...such a waste
[23:26:18] <hazzy-lab> tjb1: That is a pain
[23:26:38] <hazzy-lab> Is there some library that would make it easier?
[23:27:26] <tjb1> I havent really looked
[23:27:59] <tjb1> hazzy-lab: its this https://github.com
[23:31:47] <tjb1> I mean I can switch from right to left to left to right but thats still an extra line
[23:33:35] <hazzy-lab> That looks pretty good, but it sure is verbose
[23:34:10] <hazzy-lab> Found this, don't know if its applicable: https://playground.arduino.cc
[23:38:25] <tjb1> i need another button
[23:38:47] <tjb1> this one button/5000 functions is getting annoying
