12:02 < MrClif> I provide shells to responsable people. 12:02 < kanzure> ok neat 12:03 < Utopiah> kanzure: actually I subscribed to your YT channel after watching, hopefuly more videos coming (fingers crossed, yes that one is just to be annoying) 12:03 < MrClif> but ISC gets real twitchy when the port scans start. 12:03 < kanzure> what is ISC? 12:03 < MrClif> where im hosted isc.org. the home of the F.root nameserver. 12:04 < kanzure> oh shit 12:04 < MrClif> they are a 501(c)3 and under some scrutney and that gets passed along to the sites there. 12:04 < kanzure> wait does ISC host all 13 of the root name servers? 12:05 < MrClif> no I'm sure they are all over the world 12:06 < MrClif> but I have lots of disk space and free BW power etc. 12:06 < kanzure> props :). i'm really busy today (writing a paper) 12:06 < kanzure> but i want to look into this 12:06 < MrClif> ok We'll talk later then... 12:06 < kanzure> and get some skdb documentation going real soon now 12:06 < MrClif> (RSN) TM ;-) 12:07 < kanzure> yeah :( 12:07 < MrClif> Yeah I have to clear my stack of side projects which will take awhile *sigh*... 12:21 < Utopiah> http://blog.unptnt.com/ down?

13:00 < randallagordon> not much, just figured I'd stop by and see how active the channel is, looks to be quite well used 13:00 < kanzure> we're really busy trying to come up with more documentation for skdb 13:00 < kanzure> the response from the conference videos has been more than i expected 13:01 < randallagordon> just watched the SKDB videos from H+, I'm floored 13:01 < kanzure> i wish i was smart enough to do documentation *before* the conference :) 13:01 < randallagordon> hindsight, right? ;) 13:01 < kanzure> right right 13:03 < randallagordon> I've been loosely follow 3d printers and self-replication for several years, but never did much deep digging... So, seeing all these CNC projects at this maturity level has opened my eyes to the fact that I should have been paying closer attention for a while now! 13:04 < kanzure> what were you doing? waiting for the future to happen? 13:05 < randallagordon> Oh, no! ...I'm one of those people with too many hobbies to pick just one to focus on 13:05 < kanzure> sure. me too. http://heybryan.org/ 13:05 < randallagordon> Just paying attention to other areas 13:06 < kanzure> diybio maybe? 13:06 < randallagordon> hehe, actually I've been digging through your site since I joined the chan ;) 13:06 < randallagordon> Nah, diybio I came to recently as well. 13:07 < MrClif> Same here I just joined yesterday after running accross a diybio posting on SEM/FIB. 13:08 < kanzure> it will take me a while to learn what each of you are interested in.. but there's a lot of neat work going on 13:08 < randallagordon> The past few years I've focused on a combination of user experience/user interface design, getting a bit more serious with graphics design as well as trying to fill in the gaping hole of economics and business that I thoroughly ignored all my life...all in an attempt to try and make a living off what I love to do--work with the web 13:08 < kanzure> ybit has taken up making a .deb for skdb, and we need more people making STEP models of awesome hardware 13:08 < kanzure> ew, UI :p 13:09 < randallagordon> hehe, UI is important ;) even if it is a struggle 13:10 < MrClif> a good UI will get the projects out into the mainstream. :-) 13:10 < randallagordon> bingo ;) 13:10 < kanzure> oh i shoudl show you the skdb web server thingy i was working on before the talk.. let me turn it on 13:10 < kanzure> http://heybryan.org:8081/ have fun 13:10 < randallagordon> plus, I'm getting old...I'm not as quick to jump straight to "RTFM" as I used to be ;) 13:10 < kanzure> as soon as i put up the icons in the "packages" view, people started to understand 13:10 < kanzure> which i find amazing.. it's just a few icons. but whatever. 13:11 < randallagordon> many people have a hard time visualizing complex ideas, even tiny seeds grow into amazing ideas 13:12 < kanzure> yeah i've been looking for a diagram to explain "downloading hardware from the web" 13:12 < randallagordon> it is just timing out on my end 13:12 < kanzure> oh 13:12 < kanzure> uh 13:13 < randallagordon> I'd say show a video of the RepRap or other CNC equipment in action...seeing it happen speaks volumes 13:13 < randallagordon> I was explaining SKDB to a buddy two days ago for about 10 minutes...simply no clarity was coming around...loaded up the video of the RepRap in action and he immediately put everything together 13:13 < kanzure> randallagordon: try now 13:14 < MrClif> Say in the talk you guys mentioned a $2000 version of the shoptech router, do you have some links to that? 13:14 < kanzure> shoptech? do you mean mechmate? or shopbot? 13:14 < kanzure> http://mechmate.com/ 13:14 < kanzure> http://shopbottools.com/ 13:15 < MrClif> yes either I think. 13:15 < kanzure> shopbot is $10k+. mechmate can be thrown together for a few thousand. 13:16 < MrClif> Yes that puts it within reach. :-) 13:16 < kanzure> you can buy used stuff dirt cheap 13:16 < kanzure> .. as long as you can haul. 13:16 < MrClif> from ebay for example? 13:17 < kanzure> dunno. i haven't bought anything "big" off of ebay- i guess i'd be careful about shipping rates 13:17 < kanzure> but if you have a truck, and you have craigslist in the area, and local machine shops, you should be good 13:17 < randallagordon> try metal recyclers...they tend to try and sell off "working" parts rather than melt them down 13:18 < MrClif> ok I guess I would be looking for old XY tables. 13:18 < kanzure> hey just a word of warning, many of us in here are totally broke 13:18 < kanzure> so our concept of money and how much stuff should cost is very warped 13:18 < randallagordon> I feel ya there 13:18 < kanzure> so to me mechmate is ridiculously expensive, and shopbot is absurd 13:19 < kanzure> even though shopbot is technically one of the cheapest deals out there 13:19 < MrClif> ;-) got it. I've lived like a starving collage student for most of my life I can relate. 13:19 < kanzure> er wait, it isn't, but it's ranking there 13:19 < kanzure> collage student huh 13:19 < randallagordon> ...far, far less than commercial/industrial solutions 13:19 < kanzure> yes 13:20 < MrClif> by the way I every one teases me about my spelling. 13:20 < kanzure> i literally busted out laughing when i learned that haas stuff costs $100k minimum 13:22 < MrClif> Hey, a bit more about me, a long time ago I worked on this project: http://www.bhutan-notes.com/clif/ 13:23 < randallagordon> To play devil's advocate, the flipside is that if you've got a good idea, $100k for a piece of equipment can be made back quickly. The machine then becomes an investment... 13:23 < MrClif> True. 13:23 < kanzure> MrClif: so were you using commercial antennas? 13:23 < randallagordon> But, you've gotta ensure that your idea will generate at least that much in return...which is the difficult part 13:23 < kanzure> some of us aren't interested in money at all 13:23 < MrClif> yes in that project we were. 13:24 < kanzure> i know that's a bad thing to say. i'm cool with balancing the books, but honestly i just want to make stuff 13:24 < randallagordon> oh, that I get 13:24 < kanzure> cool, cool 13:24 < kanzure> so i'm not going to tell you i'm going to get a trillion percent ROI on blah blah blah 13:25 < MrClif> you know the Poynting yaggies are only about $14 each. 13:25 < kanzure> MrClif: what is this document? doesn't look quite like a howto 13:25 < kanzure> a report. hm. you wrote it up? 13:25 < MrClif> yes for the ITU you are required to finish a report to get paid. :-) 13:26 < kanzure> you're my hero: http://www.bhutan-notes.com/clif/images/No_1.jpg 13:26 < MrClif> It took me foever to get it done but I was somewhat motivated... 13:26 < randallagordon> I would have quoted that word for word several years back...I'm just finding that I can build faster and get further by finding methods to use my ideas to produce the cash up front that I need to pay for equipment to finish the job...the business world, rightfully, gets a bad rap, but there's a need to separate the fact that commerce/business can be a tool just as much as a CNC router...business isn't evil, some people pr 13:26 < kanzure> my future setup: http://heybryan.org/shots/inspiration/notstevebutjoe/IMG_0872.JPG 13:26 < randallagordon> business methods which doesn't create dependencies within the market they serve 13:27 < kanzure> randallagordon: yep i think we're on the same wavelength 13:27 < randallagordon> ...but most people certainly haven't been given a reason to trust corps 13:28 < randallagordon> mmm, wall of data 13:29 < MrClif> Well its been fun chatting but I have some code to finish before the day is done... 13:29 < MrClif> Catch ya later.. :-) 13:29 < randallagordon> Have fun :) 13:29 < MrClif> Ciao! 13:29 < kanzure> fenn: http://www.ladyada.net/library/kits/kitmaking.html 13:29 -!- MrClif [n=clif@c-71-236-243-61.hsd1.wa.comcast.net] has left #hplusroadmap [] 13:30 < kanzure> who was it that was working on the solarnetone project? shogunx? where is he these days 13:32 < randallagordon> Personally I'm toying with the idea that the "proper" place for an ethical business is one which educates its customers to be able to provide for themselves. So profit begets more profit, rather than draining a market. But making that a reality is the difficult part...certainly not impossible, however. 13:53 < randallagordon> Here's my current project: http://picasaweb.google.com/randallagordon/DIYHydroponics 13:54 < kanzure> neat :) 13:55 < kanzure> i'll look into that more thoroughly later (busy), but someone was in here a few months ago doing hydroponics with a styrofoam cup 13:56 < randallagordon> been interested in hydroponics for a while, then got to reading about some of the Controlled Environment Agriculture work being done at Cornell and U of Arizona and now I'm an addict 13:56 < randallagordon> enjoying a sandwhich with some of that home grown lettuce right now :) 13:57 < randallagordon> ...and I actually got involved so I could assist a buddy who is selling niche LED lighting products...I'm also an LED addict, so it fit in naturally!
