| 06:04 | <~Noah> | So I have some inverter plates, that are 2x2 with studs on both sides |
| 06:05 | <~Noah> | I wonder if there is a female version of that |
| 06:10 | <~Noah> | Oh, guess not, because the 2x2 with 8 studs isn't made by lego |
| 06:12 | <~Noah> | Still, that'll be good for SNOT |
| 07:06 | <~Noah> | Okay, so I disassembled that deformed flying chickenship and made smaller hovercraft |

| 07:50 | <~Noah> | Okay, so I see a need for a bot that does this |
| 07:51 | <~Noah> | Any image link that's posted here, it captures, and reposts to some kind of image bin, and repastes the new link |
| 07:51 | <~Noah> | But, getting it to work with multiple image sources could be a pain |
| 07:52 | <~Noah> | Anything that isn't just a straight image, it would need to check the page for the largest image, as that will likely be the pasted image |
| 08:03 | | * Noah puts a turntable under that top gun |
| 08:03 | <~Noah> | Now it can fire in any direction! |
| 08:05 | <~Noah> | Actually, I have a 25GB skydrive, I could probably make a public folder in that |
| 08:18 | <~Noah> | Hmm, httrack, gonna look into that |
| 09:02 | <~Noah> | Okay, HTTrack is what I need, just need to figure out how to optimize it for accepting any general link, then have something figure out what the largest picture in those folder are, then move it to another location |
| 09:02 | <~Noah> | Blarg, but sleep instead |

| 14:23 | <@ToxicFrog> | Yeah, actually, what's the use case for this? |

| 15:10 | < Ced23Ric> | Hello there, crew. |
| 15:13 | <@TheShadow> | Ullo |
| 16:01 | <~Noah> | TheShadow, ToxicFrog: wget on windows? And basically the idea is to have a bot that follows any link posted here, and grabs the largest image, and moves it into a public folder on my skydrive |
| 16:03 | <@ToxicFrog> | Right, but why? |
| 16:03 | <~Noah> | Because? |
| 16:04 | <~Noah> | I'm crazy? I like image redundancy? Marshmallow creme? |
| 16:05 | <~Noah> | There's a pastebin repaster, I think the Ubuntu bot uses it, and it repastes the contents of pastebins to it's own pastebin |
| 16:05 | <~Noah> | I thought the idea was neat, but wanted to apply it to images instead |
| 16:06 | <~Noah> | http://goo.gl/DL1mU http://goo.gl/Utk0V - Ced23Ric: I made a hovercraft, with posable guns!~ |
| 16:07 | < Ced23Ric> | Heya Noah. :D |
| 16:07 | <~Noah> | That grey block on the guns is a megablok brick, and it sorta swivels, it's neat |
| 16:07 | <~Noah> | I added a turn-table to that top gun |
| 16:09 | < Ced23Ric> | Bahaha. |
| 16:09 | < Ced23Ric> | It's not really in any scale, but it's hilarious. :D |
| 16:09 | < Ced23Ric> | Well, I guess it's minifig scale. |
| 16:10 | <~Noah> | It's in moredakka scale |
| 16:10 | <~Noah> | besides, our groug probably aren't going to be scale-nazis |
| 16:11 | <~Noah> | groug? |
| 16:11 | <~Noah> | Group, even |
| 16:13 | <~Noah> | brb, burritos |
| 16:14 | < Ced23Ric> | Heh. Not so much about being scale-nazis, but about limiting yourself so you can outdo yourself. Inverted stuff is inverted. |
| 16:15 | <~Noah> | Oh sure, I understand that |
| 16:15 | <~Noah> | Largely these are exercises to resurface skills that have waned since the Dark Ages |
| 16:25 | < Ced23Ric> | Tell me about it. |
| 16:25 | < Ced23Ric> | Haven't played with Lego in easily a dozen years. |
| 16:25 | < Ced23Ric> | But it's goes rather well. |
| 16:25 | < Ced23Ric> | I am working on a heavy shooty 'Frame right now. |
| 16:28 | < Ced23Ric> | http://www.ced23ric.de/stuff/mf0/vmw05_archer.png |
| 16:28 | < Ced23Ric> | Concept in LDD, and brick it later. |
| 16:59 | <~Noah> | Huh, what's that angley technic brick in the front? |
| 16:59 | <~Noah> | And the long tube, haven't seen either of those |
| 17:00 | <~Noah> | I've got several of the straight two-holes behind them though |
| 17:00 | <~Noah> | Actually, several like them, they have a flat base |
| 17:14 | < Ced23Ric> | Angley brick: shaft crank or so, it's called. |
| 17:14 | < Ced23Ric> | And the long tube is a pin to pin connector. |
| 17:14 | <~Noah> | Oh, neat |
| 17:14 | <~Noah> | I'll keep an eye out for those |
| 18:06 | | * Noah eagerly watches his tracking numbers on his lego orders |
| 18:06 | <~Noah> | Because it makes them go faster I tells ya, they feel me watching them~ |
| 18:28 | < Ced23Ric> | They are pretty shy. |

| 22:30 | <~Noah> | Hmm, Hobby Lobby carries neither Legos or Megabloks. Just some Kobi brand bricks that are advertised as being compatible and costing over 25c per brick. |
| 22:31 | | * McMartin teaches the "units" utility to convert studs/plates/bricks into 7p scale feet. |
| 22:31 | <~Noah> | Lol |
| 22:32 | <@McMartin> | Surprisingly easy, really, just made this file: |
| 22:32 | <@McMartin> | [mcmartin@iodine ~]$ cat ~/.units.dat |
| 22:32 | <@McMartin> | plate 1|8 inch |
| 22:32 | <@McMartin> | stud 5|16 inch |
| 22:32 | <@McMartin> | brick 3 plate |
| 22:32 | <@McMartin> | mfzfoot 7|6 plate |
| 22:34 | <~Noah> | A brick is 3 plates. A stud is 5? |
| 22:36 | <@McMartin> | No, 2 studs is 5 plates. |
| 22:36 | <~Noah> | Oh |
| 22:36 | <@McMartin> | "stud" here is the width of a 1x1 plate or brick. |
| 22:36 | <~Noah> | Right |
| 22:36 | <@McMartin> | You may notice that a 1x1x1 brick is not cubical |
| 22:36 | <@McMartin> | It's 5/16" x 5/16" x 3/8" |
| 22:36 | <~Noah> | Indeed it isn't |
| 22:39 | <@McMartin> | And since it's units, that means that now we can determine that 5 kg-plates/minute^2 is .44 dynes of kinetic energy! |
| 22:41 | <~Noah> | Lol |
| 22:41 | <~Noah> | So what's the terminal velocity of Mr. Chibs in Earth Gravity? |
| 22:44 | <~Noah> | Testing is vitality important to me, because I need to know if cannoneering is a viable method to deploy units. |

| 22:57 | <@McMartin> | That sounds like a task for SCIENCE. |
| 22:58 | <@McMartin> | But it requires simulated mass as well as surface area |
