[00:57] <greg-g> cmaloney: because the site is total shit and links to "DEAD REPO" github repos?
[01:11] <cmaloney> greg-g: No, because it's a whacked out dvorak keyboard
[05:12] <greg-g> :)
[12:45] <mrgoodcat> cmaloney: wish i didn't have class during MUG
[12:47] <cmaloney> mrgoodcat: Me too
[12:48] <mrgoodcat> speaking of things i can't go to. i wont be at chc tonight
[12:48] <mrgoodcat> my mom's sister is in town from colorado and we're going up north for the end of the week
[12:48] <mrgoodcat> so i'm leaving after work today
[12:49] <cmaloney> All I'm hearing are excuses
[12:50] <cmaloney> (Seriously though, I hope you have a great time. :) )
[12:50] <cmaloney> This is the sort of weather that I love being "up north"

[14:37] <brousch> All of our camping stuff fits in the Prius. Getting a trailer hitch and bike rack next week.
[14:37] <rick_h__> woot?
[14:37] <brousch> I'm surprised
[14:37] <rick_h__> trailer hitch on a prius seems...interesting
[14:37] <brousch> It's just for the bike rack
[14:38] <brousch> Prius rocked on the PyOhio trip. 46mpg
[14:38] <rick_h__> nice
[14:39] <brousch> $51 in gas
[14:40] <greg-g> hey, trailer hitch shouldn't be a non-starter anyways. you know trains use electric engines to turn the wheels, right? :)
[14:40] <brousch> heh
[14:40] <greg-g> the diesel part is just to provide juice to the electric engines
[14:40] <rick_h__> greg-g: I'm guessing their frames are a bit more...something
[14:40] <greg-g> rick_h__: heh, true
[14:41] <greg-g> having 100% torque at 0 rpm is the killer feature of electric
[14:41] <brousch> People pull small trailers with their Priuses, but the official towing capacity is 0
[14:41] <rick_h__> lol
[14:41] <rick_h__> well all the more reason I suggest it's an odd thought :)
[14:41] <greg-g> interesting
[14:41] <rick_h__> "void your warranty on your new fancy vehicle by mounting crap on it..."
[14:41] <rick_h__> seems to require a second thought and all that
[14:44] <jrwren> greg-g: 100% of zero is zero. All motors since begining of time have that feature.
[14:56] <greg-g> jrwren: er, no
[14:57] <greg-g> jrwren: electric motors have torque porportional to the current supplied, doesn't matter if they're spining yet or not
[14:57] <brousch> I was surprised by the acceleration available if I put the hammer down
[14:58] <jrwren> greg-g: err, yes.  torque is by definition, zero without motion.
[14:59] <jrwren> greg-g: i know what you are trying to say - linear torque as apposed to the torque curves of combustion engines.
[14:59] <greg-g> ahhh
[14:59] <greg-g> I was wondering if I was using the wrong word :/
[15:00] <jrwren> its ok, i'm wrong anyway.
[15:00] <jrwren> if the torque isn't enough to CAUSE motion, then the torque can still exist without motion.
[15:00]  * greg-g nods
[15:01] <jrwren> i wonder how much torque is required to set an automobile in motion
[15:01]  * greg-g shrugs
[15:02] <greg-g> I'm no good at applied, theoretical is all I got ;)
[15:02] <rick_h__> jrwren: flat or inflated tires :)
[15:03] <greg-g> "average"
