12:02.54d-loBitter cold and snowy morning to all!
12:03.22archiviststop whining about the snow :)
12:03.59d-loDon't mind the snow, its the nasty 30 mph wind that I don't like :)
12:04.04alex_joninice warm and sunny here
12:04.28d-loReally tested the CCA on the Jeep's Battery this morning, lol.
12:04.41d-loalex_joni: Email me some 'warm and sunny' please!
12:04.50archivistpress is over dramatising the snow here in the UK
12:05.50d-loarchivist: I take it that you too deal with, "ZOMG, 5cm of show... ITS THE END OF THE WORLD!" ?
12:06.21archivisthehe yea
12:07.02d-loLast week, we got a 'dusting'... seriously < 1mm snow... and they shutdown all public and private schools for 2 hours....
12:07.06archivistIve offered to go fetch a customer who was going to come today
12:07.12d-lolol
12:07.25d-lonow *THATS* customer service.
12:07.44Dr_Phreakensteinbusiness must be bad to need customers *that* much
12:07.45Dr_Phreakenstein;)
12:07.46archivisthe was the president of a car club, he is a wimp
12:08.06Dr_Phreakensteinnow if he was pres of 4wd club..
12:08.11d-lofancy shmancy cars?
12:08.14Dr_Phreakensteinno problem for him
12:08.23d-loDr_Phreakenstein: Exactly what I was thinking.
12:08.28archivisthehe tha would be funny, he does own a Freelander
12:09.28d-lowell, to be fair, most (if not all) mainstream SUV's aren't designed to handle any offroading any more :/
12:09.42d-loLandrover probably has a better rep than most, but still.
12:10.49Dr_Phreakensteintrue
12:11.01archivisttakes some snow to stop a Series 3 Landrover I had some fun years ago
12:11.42Dr_Phreakenstein(Dr_Phreakenstein cannot remember seeing a dirty SUV recently)
12:11.55archivistbent a wing going flat out into a snow drift, we pulled it straight and carried on
12:12.43Dr_PhreakensteinI remember passing people in the snow, while driving my valiant with bald tires, dead suspension
12:12.59Dr_Phreakensteinactual 4wd and awd suvs
12:13.04d-lofor instance, I come from a 'Jeep' family.  My most recent Jeep is a '08 Patriot... a bit more 'smooth ride' than 'rough and tough', but still a good car.... I took it on the small dirt/snow hills in my housing development last week and had nearlyt all my neighbors staring in awe.  My thought is, "Its a Jeep silly, what did you expect me to do with it?"
12:13.19Dr_Phreakensteinno kidding

12:13.52csanyipalhowdy
12:13.56Dr_Phreakensteinalthough, my caravan has also proven off-road worthy
12:13.57csanyipalHowdy!
12:14.00Dr_Phreakensteinhowdy!
12:14.14d-loOn a different note, when ever I see a full size truck or nice SUV 'pimped out' with windows, rims and a stereo.... I get very angry.
12:14.30Dr_Phreakensteinjust gotta watch out for that pesky ABS controller
12:14.33d-loHowdy csanyipal
12:14.33Dr_Phreakensteinyeah...
12:14.41Dr_Phreakensteinyou cannot put chains on those
12:14.48d-loCaravan... as in Dodge Caravan?
12:14.52Dr_Phreakensteinyup
12:15.02d-loWhat year?  I love those vans :)
12:15.07Dr_Phreakenstein2000
12:15.14Dr_Phreakenstein36.3 flex
12:15.18Dr_Phreakenstein3.3
12:15.30d-loNice.  We have an '03 and I love how easy the maintenance is on the 3.3 :)
12:15.41Dr_Phreakensteinthey are the best
12:15.56Dr_Phreakensteini will always buy them, too easy to fix
12:16.13Dr_Phreakensteinas long as you do not have to access rear cyl bank, as for plugs
12:16.39Dr_Phreakensteini put some 100k mile bosch plugs on there, so no problem for a while
12:17.16d-loheh, well, I draw the line maintenance like that.  Too time intensive for me.  Easier to drop it off and wait a day while someone else deals with that.
12:17.36Dr_Phreakensteininstalled class III hitch, HD shocks, prodigy electronic brake controller
12:17.49d-loAlternator, belts, plugs, breaks.. (basically the easy stuff) is what I tend to do myself.
12:17.53d-loWhat do you pull with it?
12:18.04Dr_Phreakensteinswitch to valvoline P/N vv935 oil
12:18.23Dr_Phreakensteingoing to WA to get some stuff from Grizzly
12:18.39d-loGrizzly = ?

12:20.30d-lonice, whats the Price Tag on a bachine like that?
12:20.35Dr_Phreakensteinarchivist :)

12:21.07Dr_Phreakensteinmill 2000
12:21.09d-lonice 1/2 ton.  No problem! lol
12:21.32d-loUse for Business or hobby?
12:21.37Dr_Phreakensteinalso some small misc stuff, arbor press, tooling, etc
12:21.44Dr_Phreakenstein110 systems, llc
12:22.13d-loas in 110V electricity?
12:22.25Dr_Phreakensteinactually, my cousing has designed a cnc controller and software, so i will be suing that
12:22.39Dr_Phreakensteinactually, name was picked from when we did email
12:22.43Dr_Phreakensteinport 110
12:22.51d-lonice :)
12:22.58Dr_Phreakensteinalso 110 punchdown, as in low-volt wiring
12:23.10d-lo'cause I was going to point out that the Mill Grill is 220V  ;)
12:23.22Dr_Phreakenstein:)
12:23.38Dr_Phreakensteinyes, but that is in lieu of 440 3 ph
12:24.06Dr_Phreakensteinthe power company will accept 3 easy payments of $5000 to hook it up
12:24.17Dr_Phreakenstein220 is easier to find
12:24.29Dr_Phreakensteinas in make my wife wait to use the dryer
12:24.54d-lois not a big fan of 440/450/480V.... took 500Vdc though the heart when I was in the Navy.... I still get a bit shy when doing ANY electrical work, lol.
12:25.07Dr_Phreakensteinfair enough
12:25.09d-lo3 easy payments eh?  LOL.
12:25.37Dr_Phreakensteinoh, and that only brings power to the bottom of the pole
12:25.53d-loStart asking around to see if anyone carries a 220V '6-strip' and see what kind of looks you get :)
12:25.53Dr_Phreakensteini still have to dig trench, do panel, meter, etc in premise
12:26.07d-losave cost... don't install a meter :)
12:26.18Dr_Phreakensteini like your style
12:26.39Dr_Phreakensteinjust get some mueller alligator clips on the pole
12:27.07Dr_Phreakenstein(remember to use fiberglass ladder for that job)
12:27.40d-loWell, I *WAS* going to suggest building a ghetto Current Transformer by looping some insulated cable around the power lines :)  You can claim that they weren't using the Magnetic field anyways and that you are 'recycling' of sorts :)
12:27.57Dr_Phreakensteinhmmm....
12:28.02Dr_Phreakensteini have heard of this
12:28.38Dr_Phreakensteinalso, it would give me a more reasonable voltage, albeit a little light on the current
12:29.11d-loI have done it with 110V in the house... but it was more of a "Hrm, can I build a Current Sensor with a wire and a Voltmeter"
12:29.36Dr_Phreakensteinthe method that i like is to get in as the prototype machine shop in a startup company... free rent and electricity
12:29.47Dr_Phreakensteini know 2 shops that do that
12:30.15d-loExcellent angle.... never thought about that.
12:30.22d-loNothing beats free.
12:30.29Dr_Phreakenstein:)
12:30.53Dr_Phreakensteinfound APC UPSs at the local metal scrapper...
12:31.02Dr_Phreakenstein$12.50 apiece
12:31.03d-loSo, what kind of products/services does your company provide?
12:31.06Dr_Phreakenstein1500 VA
12:31.09d-lo..still functional?
12:31.15Dr_Phreakensteinwhat do you need?
12:31.22Dr_PhreakensteinI have a forklift for sale
12:31.25d-lojust curious.
12:31.25Dr_Phreakensteinyes
12:31.42Dr_Phreakensteingot it at HP machine shop auction
12:31.43d-lolol, now the wife would really hate me if I brought home a forklift. lol
12:31.59Dr_Phreakensteinwhy do you think I am selling mine
12:32.00Dr_Phreakenstein:)
12:32.04d-loShe grimaces everytime I tell her I am swinging by Home Depot....
12:32.10Dr_Phreakensteinlol
12:32.17Dr_Phreakensteinnice
12:32.28Dr_Phreakensteinwe have an industrial wholesaler here...
12:32.49d-loI could probably justify it by saying a forklist will facilitate moving the furnature around easier.... (and make it MUCH more fun)
12:32.53d-lohrm......
12:33.29Dr_PhreakensteinI did not know it would take so long, but my wife and kids waited an hour while I bought nuts and bolts one day... in bulk it took them 35 minutes to ring me up
12:33.42Dr_Phreakensteinshe may go for a pallet jack
12:33.50d-lobah, I am saving for a Deck... can't swing a forklift right now :(
12:34.09Dr_Phreakensteinthen, when that proves insufficient, you can justify the upgrade
12:34.23d-loPersonally, I always thought one of those selfpropelled cherry pickers would be a blast.
12:34.24Dr_Phreakensteinoh, but i can sell it so cheap!
12:34.27d-lolol
12:34.33Dr_Phreakensteinthey are
12:34.41Dr_Phreakensteincareful not to tip
12:34.50d-loshipping would be a bitch though :)  You're West Coast USA?
12:34.58Dr_Phreakensteinoregon, yes
12:35.19Dr_Phreakensteinit is on my dad's truck right now, I could swing by your location
12:35.21d-lowonders if there is a Guiness Record for driving cross-country in a forklift....
12:35.27Dr_Phreakenstein:)
12:35.46Dr_Phreakensteinum, with it's electric battery, not sure about that one
12:36.12d-loSolar panels and craftsman gennies baby... yeah!
12:36.20Dr_Phreakensteinhey, but you could make a wicked UPS with a 24 v, 1120 AH battery
12:37.03Dr_Phreakensteinthat sounds efficient as can be
12:37.34d-loUPS's are only good to hold the line voltage and current whilst the 'ballsy Diesel' back up gennie fires up on UV start :)
12:38.02d-loI *almost* have my wife sold on a multi-fuel back up gennie for the house.
12:38.03Dr_Phreakensteinyes, but this could hold line voltage for your neighborhood
12:38.05d-lo..almost.
12:38.21Dr_Phreakensteinhmmm
12:38.29d-loI figure, 1 or 2 more sustaned power outtages will sway her.
12:38.44Dr_Phreakensteintell her you will bury it underground to make it quieter
12:38.52Dr_Phreakensteinthat can be arranged...
12:38.52d-lolol
12:38.54Dr_Phreakenstein;)
12:39.15d-loOh, we are in a new development, so the retarded 'low wage' workers knock out power quite regularly.
12:39.29d-loI laugh heartly every time it happens.
12:39.38Dr_Phreakensteinnice
12:40.27d-loits kind of funny to look outside and see a 15 ton CAT front loader backed over a transformer enclosure with 4 workers standing 50 ft away, just staring.
12:40.56Dr_Phreakenstein...oops...
12:41.26d-loOnce i was assured that no one got hurt, I just laughed and laughed.
12:41.49Dr_Phreakensteinwonders if that is as funny as seeing D-10 cat on it's side next to a HETT, and an 88m doing pushups in the ditch
12:42.11d-lolol
12:42.58Dr_Phreakensteini sure laughed (once I was out of earshot of her leadership, yes, her)
12:43.14d-lonow thats funny.
12:43.52Dr_Phreakensteini even returned to take a picture, but i could not get there until after PT, and it was up by then
12:44.06d-loI work with a guy who was ex-Army, I forget his MOS, but his primary role was HETT and HEMMIT(spelling?) mechanic.... oh man, the stories he has...
12:44.16Dr_Phreakenstein2 88 wreckers will lift anything in a hurry
12:44.25Dr_PhreakensteinHEMMT
12:44.30Dr_Phreakensteini bet
12:44.36d-lorighto, thanks.
12:44.46Dr_Phreakensteindrove one once
12:45.03d-loI got used to 10 years of Navy acronyms and then switched up and joined the Army as a civ.... whole new world lol.
12:45.34d-lodrove?  I was impressed enough with riding in one.
12:45.56Dr_PhreakensteinI was new to army, and they needed people to drive vehicles onto a train car. so they gave me a license for everything in the motorpool, minus forklift
12:46.17Dr_Phreakensteinironically, a forklift was all that i had ever been trained on...
12:46.40Dr_Phreakensteinso, there was this sea of armored vehicles...
12:47.06Dr_PhreakensteinI soon tired of APCs and HMMWVs, so i tried other stuff
12:47.15d-lomy current favorite military vehicle:  
12:47.21d-lohttp://patdollard.com/wp-content/uploads/land_mrap_img_maxxpro_cat-1_final_lg.jpg
12:47.48Dr_PhreakensteinBradley... 88, HEMMT, LMTV, LMTV with tractor-trailer, and some other stuff
12:47.54Dr_Phreakensteinnice
12:48.25Dr_Phreakensteinthose are nice to ride in, even nicer to drive
12:48.36Dr_PhreakensteinI am a big International fan
12:48.58d-loOf all the Army vehicles, the IMG MAXXPRO is the only one I have a lot of experience with... and me likes :)  If I could get one for home, I would.
12:49.08Dr_Phreakensteinactually, my Yale forklift is sitting on a 1970 International Loadstar 1800
12:49.24d-lo"Oh, so you want to tailgate me? Let me just perform a brake check."
12:49.35Dr_Phreakensteinthe good ole 113 is kinda fun, if you have one in good shape
12:49.56d-lobah, I need to work now :/
12:50.01Dr_Phreakensteinyeah, maxpro stops alright
12:50.09Dr_Phreakensteinone more thing
12:50.42Dr_Phreakensteinlook into installing sach's "nivomat" suspension in your van
12:51.08Dr_Phreakensteinyou can get it online for about 250 per shock (rear only)
12:51.38Dr_Phreakensteinwish i new about it before getting those monroe shocks i got... not bad, but self-levelling is the best
12:51.50d-lonivomat eh?
12:51.52Dr_Phreakensteinavailable with factory tow package, too

20:20.31CIA-32BRL-CAD: 03davidloman * r33678 10/rt^3/trunk/src/ (4 files in 3 dirs): Continuing work for gsph0. gsph0 now communicating with gsph0_test during Hostname exchange and new session request.
20:23.38CIA-32BRL-CAD: 03davidloman * r33679 10/rt^3/trunk/src/tests/java/ (8 files): Continuing work for gsph0_Test. gsph0_Test now communicating with gsph0 during Hostname exchange and new session request.
20:24.58CIA-32BRL-CAD: 03davidloman * r33680 10/rt^3/trunk/src/iBME/testing.g: Simple example .g for file transfer testing.
20:26.52``Erikbrlcad, *ping*
20:33.01CIA-32BRL-CAD: 03erikgreenwald * r33681 10/brlcad/trunk/src/adrt/librender/cut.c: darwin doesn't seem to like pointers to stack addresses in library functions being dereferenced, so malloc() (and free) the cutter geometry (fixes bus fault).

23:18.33``Erikhrm, it's two function calls that don't do jack iwth the stack, when I put it through the debugger, it looks like a reasonable address (and consistant)
23:18.59``Erikand it's a bus fault, not a seg fault, which is odd in itself
23:19.30brlcadmm
23:19.33brlcadi still don't buy it
23:19.46``Erik*shrug* that change made the problem go away, mebbe I'll explore it a bit later
23:19.54brlcadthose are simple floats in an array on the stack
23:20.23``Erikyeah, with a few levels of indirection in the mix... it sees into the first pointer ok, btu the second is inaccessable
23:20.32starseekerbrlcad: should I incorporate the existing mged regression testing into what I'm doing or do you want to keep it as its own routine?
23:20.39brlcadthere should be no problem passing around pointers to that -- maybe somewhere it gets cast to the wrong pointer type, like a bad double/triple pointer cast
23:20.43``ErikI d'no, if I decide to think about it, mebbe I'll revert it and step through it
23:20.55brlcadthat'd be something that might turn out fine on some environments
23:21.07brlcaddepending on the alignment
23:21.17``Erikgiven that it uses the same type everywhere along the path, and it's nicely aligned, I 'dno about that
23:21.36brlcadstarseeker: what are you doing?
23:21.38``Erikunless there're some funky compile option differences between the various libs
23:22.13``Erikif I think about it between now and tomorrow, I'll try stepping it to see what's up *shrug*
23:22.21brlcad*shrug*
23:22.28brlcadlooked like it was during prep, so not a big issue
23:22.34``Erikyup
23:22.35starseekerbrlcad:  The mged/libged regression testing - should I just suck the stuff you did to test mged command functionality into one big mged test, or did you want to retain your routine as a separate entity?
23:22.37brlcadbut just don't think it's a darwin thing
23:22.49``Erikthat's the only place it exhibited itself
23:23.03brlcadstarseeker: AH, the "other" existing mged regression testing
23:23.07starseekerright
23:23.31brlcadnah, leave it alone unless you have a compelling reason to join them
23:23.43starseekerok.
23:23.54starseekerwas just wanting to steal the mged.sh name ;-)
23:23.56brlcadthe tests don't need to be elegant, they're overhead code -- the less maintenance the better
23:24.34brlcadwhatever suits your fancy then :)
23:24.42starseekerok
23:24.59starseekeris thinking this will be ready to hook in in a few days...
23:25.13starseekerassuming my vim editing speed increases somewhat
23:26.00brlcadI'd be inclined to make all those sections you have into individual files, source them in and run a function or exec them directly
23:26.35brlcadjust think how fast you'd be by now if you had a powerful scriptable environment at your fingertips with the same investment of effort ;)
23:26.58starseekerheh
23:27.16brlcadare the tests looking grim or green?
23:27.37starseekernot too bad so far - I haven't actually run a 7.12.6 benchmark in a bit
23:27.43starseekerme relinks and re-runs...
23:28.07brlcadgave bob time to tweak, releasing either tomorrow or saturday
23:28.31brlcadgoing to press really hard to keep to a release by the 7th
23:28.32starseekerhe's squashed a few bugs already - the make spewing errors was a biggie
23:31.00starseekernods
23:36.51starseekerauugh, why do I get a bus error now
23:42.28yukonbobbrlcad: plate full of bugs?
23:42.35yukonbobs/bugs/tickets/
23:44.52brlcadyukonbob: yeah, there are too many tickets, none getting closed out
23:50.19*** join/#brlcad elite01 (n=omg@unaffiliated/elite01)
23:56.32starseekerhmm, well autoview, saveview, loadview, ps, and plot are now suddenly causing bus errors
