00:03:58 <Ysjoelfir> woohoo, my new screens arrived!
00:23:44 <K> huh, this exists: https://www.amazon.de/-/en/engraving-machine-spindle-accuracy-fixture/dp/B08G1RY6QT/ref=sr_1_10?dchild=1&keywords=42+mm+graviermaschine+spindelmotor&qid=1622470978&sr=8-10

00:25:46 <steve30> what screens did you get?
00:30:51 <Ysjoelfir> 2x HP LP2065
00:31:05 <Ysjoelfir> would that solve all your problems, K?
00:34:45 <K> dunno
00:35:06 <Ysjoelfir> hm. get it!
00:35:07 <K> ill get the 20krpm dc motor first
00:35:32 <K> for speindle i will need a motor too, and some kind of contraption to hold it all together
00:36:09 <K> i am bit reluctant to put more load on those 10mm guide rods
00:36:28 <K> they do not have propper mounting bracket, just hole and screw
00:36:45 <K> there is some flex
00:37:06 <K> not that my application puts a lot of strain on it
00:38:14 <K> i had kinda started to build my own, overengeneered corexy frame
00:38:32 <K> it has 12mm rods and i cant flex them at all
00:38:41 <K> but those are affixed with clamps
00:41:25 <steve30> Ysjoelfir, sounds good

00:42:47 <Ysjoelfir> K, I have some linear rail thingies, good ones. I always wondered what Ishould do with those. maybe I should build a mill with that
00:43:03 <Ysjoelfir> but that looks nice :D why did you abandon that?
00:43:11 <Ysjoelfir> steve30 - yep. and it helps saving taxes
00:43:47 <K> other things got in the way
00:44:00 <K> but i plan to finish it
00:45:46 <K> ill have to change the bearing blocks though, those "iggus" plastic linear bearings need preload and blocks there do not have the feature
00:47:08 <K> ive seen 3018 modded with linear rails and ballscrews
00:47:15 <K> crazy.

01:41:36 <Kuschelpony> good evening
01:41:51 <Ysjoelfir> good preevening/afternoon :)
01:42:35 <Kuschelpony> depends on how early you got up
01:46:29 <Ysjoelfir> that is correct
01:46:44 <T3sl4> morning *hugs*
01:50:02 <Ysjoelfir> mornings T3sl4
01:50:11 <T3sl4> a Ysjoelfir!
01:50:36 <Ysjoelfir> ew, where?
01:55:21 <Lemon> hmm im wondering, if im grounded, and im holding a steel pair of tweezers, they are also grounded, thus esd safe, right ?
01:55:51 <Kuschelpony> yep
02:02:32 <T3sl4> grounding is transitive between conductive objects
02:04:23 * Ampera grinds T3sl4 up into ground electrons
02:05:48 <T3sl4> wasted effort, i was already laying on the ground
02:06:09 <Ampera> but were you wasted
02:06:21 <T3sl4> in the morning?
02:06:24 <T3sl4> only occasionally
02:06:47 <Ampera> you're behind the times, old man
02:06:49 <Ampera> it's afternoon here
02:07:02 <T3sl4> you're ahead of the times, greenhorn
02:07:32 <Ampera> horn is right
02:08:00 <hsn> Could someone charge an ic to high potential relative to ground .. then put it in esd safe bag .. and ship it to u ? And then u zap it while u grounded .. T3sl4
02:08:23 <hsn> Or the esd bag actually slowly grounds the ic back to atmospheric / earth?
02:08:32 <T3sl4> no, read about electrostatic induction

05:15:40 <Lemon> I never felt the need of it, im just curious
05:17:02 <Kuschelpony> hmm, ok
05:17:37 <Kuschelpony> never used anything, as i just occasionally wipe the tip with paper towel and immediately re-tin again
05:17:54 <Kuschelpony> have best experiences wit hthe ERSA longlife tips
05:17:58 <Lemon> yeah I just use those brass whool thingies
05:18:20 <Lemon> and leave it tinned
05:18:23 <Kuschelpony> they seem to be good as well, just never tried
05:18:35 <Kuschelpony> leaving it tinned is absoplutely important yes
05:19:47 <Lemon> yeah, thats my dear father who taught me this trick
05:20:16 <Kuschelpony> i just found thast out myself when i began in the 80s
05:20:24 <Kuschelpony> my father was noit in electronics
05:20:43 <Kuschelpony> and the books i read were ehm... lets say not deeply checked to be right what they teach...
05:21:11 <Lemon> I see :> well, lets be honest
05:21:19 <Kuschelpony> always please
05:21:20 <Lemon> it was super hard to learn anything from my father
05:21:24 <Kuschelpony> oh
05:21:52 <Lemon> he would answer any of my questions, in a really detailed manner, maybe too detailed sometimes
05:22:13 <Lemon> but he was also really tough, he expected me to understand everything the first time, but he wasnt a really good teacher lol
05:22:26 <Lemon> he'd get angry real fast
05:22:44 <Lemon> but I'm sad he's not here anymore to see my little lab
05:23:04 <Lemon> I was interested by electronics but not that much back then, I was more into computer building, stuff like that
05:23:07 <Lemon> nothing super fancy
05:23:24 <Lemon> most of his career in electronics was when I was too young
05:25:15 <Lemon> im trying to walk on his footsteps :>
05:34:30 <Kuschelpony> interesting story
05:34:54 <Kuschelpony> my father comes from woodworking, and had really no talent to be a teacher or to talk much at all
05:39:58 <Lemon> but im sure he was super good at what he was doing :>
05:40:36 <Kuschelpony> yep
05:41:09 <Kuschelpony> i learned my first steps i nthe way of lets say to read three wrong books and "distil" the right parts
05:41:12 <Kuschelpony> then just practice
05:41:52 <Kuschelpony> and slowly i made all the formulas myself from first principles

08:52:05 <MrMobodies> trying to get that Salisfish OS but tried endless of times thinking the creditions were wrong even thought I copied and pasted them and tried manually
08:52:19 <MrMobodies> then I was about to go to contact to find this

08:52:34 <MrMobodies> 404 not found so it looks like there is a problem with it

08:54:32 <MrMobodies> so I had to go in each profile to go into the newer settings panel and have the page dim on pretty much everything on dialogues

10:05:53 <T3sl4> weird
10:17:35 <DHess_US> T3sl4, also added TVS protection to the +/-12 and +5 volt supplies, https://ibb.co/nnyHRyJ
10:17:35 <EEVBot> [Title] - DM502-TVS-Protection — ImgBB
10:18:14 <T3sl4> seems weird seeing a bog standard frame transformer labeled tektronix
10:18:50 <DHess_US> I'm sure it was custom wound for them.
10:19:13 <DHess_US> If you buy transformers for production, custom wound ones do not cost anymore than off the shelf ones.
10:19:54 <DHess_US> In production there is very little reason to use an off the shelf power transformer.
10:21:41 <T3sl4> yeah
10:22:10 <T3sl4> they did so much in house, or far more custom than that, obviously it wasn't necessary here
10:22:20 <DHess_US> That transformer is actually weirder than you would first assume.
10:24:14 <DHess_US> Each plug-in slot has access to two 24 VAC floating windings. So the transformer is 48 volts AC in, and makes the outputs for +/-12 and +5 regulators.
10:26:00 <DHess_US> Their earlier multimeter which is 4.5 digits is a very different design, and has a high frequency inverter to make the floating power supplies.
10:27:14 <DHess_US> I don't know why they didn't keep the high frequency inverter. It may be that the two multimeters were designed by different teams at Tektronix. They usually had separate A and B teams with different focuses.
10:27:40 <DHess_US> So the 24xx series oscilloscopes were the A team, and the 22xx series were the B team.
10:31:49 <T3sl4> huh
10:32:38 <T3sl4> transformers also weren't all that pricey back then. i have an early (acquired i think) HP plotter that's like six goddamn windings on the main transformer, to run the all of 5 or 7 transistors in the thing, whatever it is
10:33:23 <T3sl4> the motors are driven by a 2N3055 in a FWB, phase controlled to get the bidirectional control
10:33:45 <T3sl4> hmm, that'd have to be 5 or 7 per axis, but i forget what all
10:34:09 <T3sl4> it uses neon lights into CdS photocells for chopper amp / phase modulation
10:46:14 <DHess_US> Even now custom transformers aren't any more expensive than off-the-shelf ones. You can find transformer winding companies in every major city, or at least you used to.
10:46:29 <DHess_US> That is assuming of course that you are buying 10s of them at a time.
10:47:50 <DHess_US> That is also why I didn't bother trying to source a transformer for my broken computer speakers. It would be a custom one.
10:49:17 <DHess_US> Probably just as well. The amplifier, speakers, and especially subwoofer I replaced them with are so much better.
10:49:39 <DHess_US> The cobbler's children go shoeless, right?

11:11:58 <DHess_US> Hmm, I have a broken Tektronix multimeter that has never worked. I should take a look at it as long as I am in multimeter mode.
11:15:46 <DHess_US> Looks like it uses a 60 Hz power transformer also, so there is a good chance it has bad input capacitors.
11:17:56 <DHess_US> True RMS and audio support so could be handy if I can fix it.

17:11:59 <Lemon> oi oi
17:13:14 <Ysjoelfir> mornings
17:13:53 <Lemon> waddup homie !
17:17:00 <Ysjoelfir> just brought mrs. spouse to work and now I will... probably enjoy a breakfast and then measure my lab for the tax return thing.
17:29:30 <Lemon> heh neat :>
17:29:57 <Lemon> can you take a picture of your whole lab when you have some time ? im curious to see its current state, and I have a bad memory, sadly x)
17:30:22 <Ysjoelfir> yes, when I'm done
17:30:31 <Ysjoelfir> I have to take photos for the tax agency anyway
17:36:40 <Lemon> cool :>
17:37:09 <Lemon> im wondering, when you need a tool, or anything, you always get branded stuff ? or sometimes you dont mind some aliexpress stuff if its good enough ?
17:39:12 <Ysjoelfir> depends. I am not a brand whore, but I prefer quality tools. If I find something from china that is good quality I would prefer that as its usually way cheaper.
17:40:16 <Lemon> ok good, I also think the same
17:40:29 <Lemon> recently I found some nice reviews on tweezers
17:40:44 <Lemon> we'll see when I get them, but for the price they seemed super good
17:40:55 <Ysjoelfir> I like my china tweezers
17:40:59 <Lemon> a guy made a comparison with expensive ones, and he said they were better or as good as them
17:41:40 <Lemon> also, I learnt that the ts100 got temperature inaccuracies, not by a couple degrees but sometimes up to 40-50 C D:
17:41:54 <Lemon> so I bought that hakko knockoff thermometer that everybody praises, for 9 euros
17:42:08 <Lemon> peeps tested it and its actually accurate, to 2-3C
17:42:12 <Lemon> which will be perfect
17:43:21 <Ysjoelfir> I like my hakko knockoff thermometer
17:45:29 <Lemon> haha perfect :P
17:45:37 <Lemon> hmmm what else
17:45:51 <hsn> hold on
17:45:54 <Lemon> well couple goodies
17:45:55 <hsn> angry hsn on the way
17:45:59 <hsn> https://snipboard.io/AnxRlF.jpg
17:46:04 <Lemon> ho the LA is soon here
17:46:05 <Ysjoelfir> I like my angry hsn
17:46:18 <hsn> Ysjoelfir, u make me laugh .. no more angry hsn for u
17:46:30 <Ysjoelfir> :(
17:46:52 <hsn> i opened my account in paypal long time ago .. i submitted wrong info
17:47:07 <hsn> and now i wanted to fix the issue contacted their support to change my name
17:47:16 <hsn> and he responded with closing my account !
17:47:17 <hsn> lol
17:47:18 <Lemon> those pieces of shit
17:47:36 <Ysjoelfir> lol?
17:49:23 <Lemon> parcel timeee
17:52:15 <Lemon> IPA, kontakt 60, 61, some mg chemicals flux, a chipquick flux pen, and a brush kit !
17:52:22 <Lemon> now I can clean my shit, finally !
17:52:32 <Ysjoelfir> You are strange
17:52:41 <Lemon> yes I paid that IPA way too much, but I couldnt afford to buy 10 litters at once
17:52:46 <Ysjoelfir> I just flush my shit down the toilet without thoroughly cleaning it

18:45:55 <Halcyon> Evening all
18:47:21 <steve30> hi
18:58:38 <Ysjoelfir> mornings Halcyon
19:05:56 <Halcyon> How are things guys?
19:09:50 <Ysjoelfir> quite nice. and over there?
19:10:24 <Halcyon> Can't complain I suppose
19:14:14 * Halcyon fondles T3sl4's strogan off
19:17:31 * DogWomble peers in
19:17:50 <Halcyon> Howdy
19:18:09 <DogWomble> how goes?
19:18:20 <Halcyon> Not too bad, sleepy, the usual. How about you?
19:18:55 <DogWomble> yeah doing ok :D
19:19:14 <Halcyon> My brain is broken
19:19:16 <DogWomble> been playing with a nearly-vintage laptop i picked up yesterday
19:19:19 <Halcyon> Did my Sergeant's exams today
19:19:27 <DogWomble> aah nice :D
19:20:18 <Halcyon> It's nice that it's over
19:20:22 <Halcyon> Now to wait for the results...
19:21:14 <DogWomble> i've got this laptop almost working perfectly
19:21:27 <Halcyon> Nice, what did you install on it?
19:21:30 <DogWomble> it's an old AMD Athlon X2 with 2gb ram that i'm just rinning kubuntu on
19:21:44 <DogWomble> it was windows vista and ... blergh yeah no thanks
19:21:50 <Halcyon> Argh Vista
19:22:29 <DogWomble> the problem is that it's only got 2gb ram, so the hard drive occasionally starts thrashing, but i found a cheap RAM stick on ebay to get it up to at least 3Gb, so that should help
19:22:38 <Halcyon> Heh
19:22:53 <DogWomble> yeah, it's not a powerhouse but it doesn't really need to be
19:23:05 <DogWomble> basical;ly got it because it was chaep-ish and i just want soemthign for protable wordprocessing with a real keyboard
19:23:31 <DogWomble> the only fault i've found with it so far is that it has the original battery crom circa 2009 and ... yeh, that's not holding charge
19:23:51 <DogWomble> but the places i'll be using it will have a reliable sournce of power, so i'm going to see if that becomes an issue before i invest more moeny inm a replacement
19:24:53 <DogWomble> but yeah, apart from the very occasional hard drive thrashing, it seems to be running well enough for me to use it for a bit of protalble typing
19:28:51 <steve30> You said you were already a sergeant :/
19:29:02 <steve30> Or do they give you the job before completing the exam?
19:30:30 <K> maybe requalification exams or somth?
19:32:55 <Halcyon> steve30: I've been relieving in the position on an on-going basis but it's not my substantive role
19:33:18 <Halcyon> It's a vacant position which they are yet to advertise, but then they do, I want to be ready to apply for it.
19:36:50 <steve30> Ah, so you're more Acting Sergeant Halcyon rather than Sergeant Halcyon.
19:37:08 <Halcyon> Yes but you don't say the "Acting" when you address people
19:37:37 <Ysjoelfir> o\
19:37:47 * Ysjoelfir salutes in front of mr. Sergeant
19:37:53 <Halcyon> Hahaha
19:37:55 <DogWomble> so you're not a real sargeant you were just playing one on tv
19:38:00 <Halcyon> Pretty much DogWomble
19:39:11 <Halcyon> All things going well, it'll be my job by the end of the year
19:39:32 <Ysjoelfir> nice. can I have your old job than?
19:39:38 <Halcyon> Sure :P
19:39:51 <Ysjoelfir> cool. can you deliver it to germany?
19:39:52 <steve30> I've got a "professional" video job to do this afternoon.
19:39:59 <Ysjoelfir> oh nice steve!
19:40:00 <Halcyon> Oh? Do tell steve30
19:40:02 * steve30 gets the HDV tape ready :)
19:40:05 <Halcyon> Wait... is it porn?
19:40:05 <K> professional in what way?
19:40:15 <K> professional only means you found some sucker paying for it
19:40:28 <K> (i joke)
19:40:48 <steve30> yes, in the sense that he's paying me for it, albeit as more of a hobbyist I'm letting him off with rather low rates.
19:41:06 <Halcyon> If it's porn, I request a copy of the raw tape :P
19:41:16 <steve30> Halcyon, not porn. Its the rapper who I did a music video for a few months ago.
19:41:22 <Halcyon> Dammit
19:41:33 <Halcyon> But that's awesome steve30
19:41:35 <K> porn music video
19:41:37 <Ysjoelfir> nice, so he was very pleased with the results?
19:41:56 <steve30> K, actually, a lot of music videos do seem to cross the border in to porn.
19:42:00 <steve30> Ysjoelfir, yes
19:42:40 <Halcyon> steve30, unforunately it's mostly horrible slutty women that no one wants to see
19:43:25 <Halcyon> This is pretty close though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgIZVeJLl6I

19:44:25 <Halcyon> Ysjoelfir will have to translate though
19:46:17 <Ysjoelfir> thats a strange song
19:46:23 <Halcyon> It's a good song :P
19:46:29 <steve30> Halcyon, here's the video from the other month if you didn't see it
19:46:29 <steve30> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLuMYp68ozY
19:47:12 <Halcyon> I think I'll watch that on mute steve30. I listened to the first few words and I can't stand it
19:47:51 <Ysjoelfir> hahahaha
19:48:11 <Halcyon> He looks like he just doesn't give a crap.
19:48:25 <Halcyon> Or he's coming down off drugs?
19:48:27 <Ysjoelfir> I said something simmilar. I like the video, but I don't like the song.
19:48:52 <Halcyon> That camera does a decent job Steve
19:49:07 <steve30> He actually has way more enthusiasm than what appears in the video
19:49:18 <Halcyon> He got a fair few views on that
19:50:08 <Halcyon> For something that sounds so awful, I'm surprised :P
19:50:13 <Halcyon> You did good though Steve
19:50:38 <steve30> Rap isn't my kind of thing, but some people are really into it
19:51:12 <Halcyon> I would sooner listening to Nikki Webster
19:51:20 <Halcyon> *listen
19:51:21 * steve30 eyes up the hot guy in Halcyon's video link
19:51:33 <Halcyon> I knew you'd like that Steve :P
19:54:04 <steve30> on the subject of boys, I haven't kissed anyone in a long time :(
19:54:11 <Halcyon> Random
19:54:24 <Halcyon> Wait, weren't you going on a date somewhere on the train>?
19:55:37 * steve30 doesn't like travel
19:57:53 <Halcyon> So you didn't go?
19:58:42 <steve30> not yet, i may do at some point :p
20:03:33 <DogWomble> i do want to get a bit of travel in when the covid situation settles down again
20:06:00 <DogWomble> i do love having multiple monitors as well
20:06:33 * Ampera hits Halcyon
20:06:41 <steve30> 3 weeks time is supposed to be the end of all restrictions here, but various people seem keen to extend them, despite the fact that we have a supposedly good vaccine and virtually no one is getting ill with the disease...
20:07:03 * DogWomble gives Ampera a thingywhatsit
20:07:35 * Ampera gives DogWomble a deal he can't refuse
20:07:57 * DogWomble accepts Ampera's offer with great excitement

23:30:10 <Lemon> weeeee my very first aneng product !
23:30:22 <Lemon> and I must say, for those 6-7 euros, im quite impressed
23:31:18 <hsn> hey
23:31:22 <hsn> Ysjoelfir, help me
23:31:29 <Ysjoelfir> how
23:31:33 <hsn> im going crazy with my ramadan circuit
23:31:38 <hsn> full of mistakes :D
23:31:51 <hsn> so let me ask a question .. hrmm
23:32:44 <hsn> Ysjoelfir, https://snipboard.io/ozLsnY.jpg
23:32:58 <hsn> if Vin > vref .. what would be the output ?
23:33:16 <hsn> the output is open collector type ^
23:33:46 <hsn> imagine it as pulled up ..
23:35:16 <Ysjoelfir> if Vin > Vref it would try to force the output to V+. since its pulled up it should stay that way.
23:35:54 <hsn> holy fuck :D
23:35:56 <hsn> lol
23:36:25 <hsn> i thought .. since this thing is open collector ..
23:36:31 <Ysjoelfir> hm? am I wrong? :D I am a bit pissed atm, so I might not notice everything^^
23:36:56 <hsn> that if (v_pos > v_negative) it will short output to ground
23:37:01 <hsn> so this is another mistake
23:38:13 <hsn> my thought was like (output = on) when v+ > v- ................. (output=on)-> pulled low
23:39:09 <Ysjoelfir> Aaah, I see your mistake there. I fell for that once as well. an open collector is either high impedance or forced to ground. afaik every comparator works the way that if Vin+ is the higher potential it goes up, if Vin- is the higher potential it goes low. since its open collector it "can't" go high, it just can go high impedance, which would be high either way since you pullupped the thing.
23:39:31 <hsn> ahhaha
23:39:36 <hsn> the funny part
23:39:38 <hsn> is
23:39:50 <hsn> i had two of these in my circuit
23:40:05 <hsn> by mistake i did flip on of them (so one of them was good)
23:40:18 <hsn> and i salvaged it so now both are wrong
23:40:25 <hsn> and now i 've to double salvage
23:41:21 <Ysjoelfir> argh xD poor you^^

23:46:36 <Ysjoelfir> Lemon, because I am tracing an oil leak on my dear swedish tank. I thought I finally found it by replacing a leaking shaft seal in the distributor, went to the carwash yesterday, cleaned the engine, now the thing is oily again. and I think I found the reason again. a year ago I swapped out the oil trap for an aftermarket thing. that thing is a 2 part piece which is originally plastic welded together. the aftermarket part seems to be glued,
23:46:36 <Ysjoelfir> as it pupped right in half at that seam. didn't notice that, as I was sure this can't be the reason as I just swapped that fucking thing a year ago!
23:47:10 <Ampera> hullo electrohead, what did you break
23:47:22 <Lemon> arf I see, its indeed annoying, but you got it now !
23:47:41 <Ysjoelfir> I sure hope so.... freakin plastic box costs 50€
23:48:45 <electrohead> I didn't break anything, I fell asleep last night in the middle of updating everything
23:48:48 <electrohead> yay, lol
23:49:04 <Ysjoelfir> welcome back mr. head
23:49:04 <Nero_> man this is the strangest altium bug
23:49:15 <Ysjoelfir> altium has many strange and annoying bugs
23:49:17 <Nero_> for some reason altium just decided that certain resistors are not connected
23:49:23 <Nero_> like I can see it connected in schematic
23:49:36 <Nero_> when I drag the component the wires I think itś connected too move with it
23:49:43 <Nero_> but in layout it is just two unconnected pads
23:49:54 <Nero_> and itś the same resistor symbol Iǘe used in other places
23:50:36 <Ysjoelfir> I had that for jumper wires once... make sure your pins aren't off grid. somehow I managed to place one of those pins at 99.9999999999mil instead of 100 mil and that exact thing happened.
23:51:38 <Ysjoelfir> doesn't matter if its the same. I have had cases where I just copied parts in a library file and did not touch the drawing at all. when I wanted to place them they were at like -700000000000000/-50000000000 mil, so FAR off the sheet.
23:59:12 <K> they wanted out
23:59:20 <Ysjoelfir> looks like it
