[00:52] <daftykins> Fireball XL-5 colourised edition - bluray :D
[01:54] <daftykins> if you have an android phone, search on the google play store for 'irc' then look at the first screenshot for 'Yaaic' - i'm famous!
[02:06] <diddledan> I _REALLY_ suck at soldering
[02:06] <diddledan> the good news however, is I have a soldering iron \o/
[02:09] <daftykins> i feel you now know just enough to be dangerous
[02:09]  * daftykins squints and grips the fire extinguisher
[02:18] <diddledan> so. I built a thing. and it seems to be working
[02:18] <diddledan> I'm amazeballed
[02:18] <daftykins> RoTM </theregister>
[02:18] <diddledan> RoTM?
[02:19] <daftykins> rise of the machines! </terminator>
[02:19] <diddledan> aah
[02:19] <diddledan> gotcha
[02:19] <diddledan> yes
[02:19] <daftykins> said Noel Edmonds
[05:58] <mapps> hi
[08:25] <knightwise> morning peepz
[08:27] <diddledan> morning
[08:33] <knightwise> hey diddledan how are ya today
[08:33] <diddledan> good here
[08:33] <diddledan> upgrading a pi to raspbian jessie right now
[08:34] <diddledan> (model B+)
[08:34] <diddledan> (I think it's a B+ anywho - I lost track of the revisions)
[08:35] <diddledan> I got busy last night with a soldering iron \o/
[08:35] <knightwise> got an interesting question from a client yesterday
[08:35] <knightwise> he wants an un-motion detector
[08:36] <knightwise> a webcam that alerts him when motion on a certain machine STOPS
[08:36] <diddledan> hmm
[08:36] <diddledan> can you prove a negative?
[08:36] <knightwise> been wracking my brain on how to research that . Softwarewise its just about switching the "trigger" from "when it moves' to "when it doesnt' but ... how do i google that.
[08:37] <knightwise> take 5 pictures, compare them. if they are different everything is ok
[08:37] <knightwise> if 5 of them are exactly the same : alert
[08:38] <diddledan> I think I'd do it in two steps - set up motion sensing and then invert the output
[08:38] <diddledan> so 1 when motion detected becomes 0 and vicky verky
[08:39] <diddledan> you want the motion sensing bit to give you a straight boolean output
[08:47]  * diplo agrees with diddledan 
[08:47] <diplo> Could test with a normal PIR depending on the machine
[08:48] <diplo> Wouldn't it be better to try and actually interact with the machine?
[08:49] <diddledan> I can do very shoddy soldering now!
[08:49] <diddledan> solder all the things!
[08:50] <MooDoo> morning all
[09:03] <zmoylan-pi> if the machine has any vibration then balancing a mouse in such a way that the mouse pointer trembles would capture motion
[09:08] <knightwise> zmoylan-pi: its a printerpress , so that would work.
[09:08] <knightwise> so when the mouse stops jittering, an alert goes of ?
[09:11] <MartijnVdS> screensaver comes on
[09:11] <MartijnVdS> which sends a dbus msg
[09:11] <knightwise> hmmm.. now there is something :)
[09:12] <zmoylan-pi> bonus points to set up cdrom drive eject to turn it off and on again if necessary... :-)
[09:17] <diplo> hahahah in a nerdy irc channel by chance :D
[09:17] <zmoylan-pi> there are non nerdy irc channels?
[09:18] <diplo> Yeah, well maybe not on Freenode :)
[09:18] <davmor2> Morning all
[09:24] <MooDoo> morning davmor2
[09:35] <JamesTait> Good morning all!  Happy Thursday, and happy Mario Day! 😃
[09:39] <davmor2> JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPncniRuoPs
[09:40] <JamesTait> davmor2, day made.
[09:41] <JamesTait> I may as well pack up now.  It's not going to get any better than that.

[09:45] <Myrtti> http://livestream.com/tinykittens/savina how about miracle of birth?
[09:45] <Myrtti> Warning: contains blood and gore
[09:45] <Myrtti> and kittens
[09:46] <JamesTait> Myrtti, that takes me back 15 years....
[09:55] <Myrtti> miu miu miu
[10:11] <knightwise> there is a nyancat package in homebrew on OSX
[10:11] <knightwise> *awesome*
[10:21] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[10:39] <MooDoo> morning brobostigon
[10:39] <brobostigon> morning MooDoo
[10:39] <MooDoo> how are you brobostigon ?
[10:40] <brobostigon> not bad, could be better, and you?
[10:40] <MooDoo> full of cold, but ok
[10:41] <brobostigon> :( hope better soon.
[10:43] <MooDoo> thanks
[10:43] <brobostigon> :)
[12:28] <knightwise> today appears to be #noconcentrationday for me
[12:30] <diddledan> procrastinate day for me
[12:30] <zmoylan-pi> meh, leave that till tomorrow... :-)
[12:31] <diddledan> I'm messing with GPS+NTP
[12:31] <MartijnVdS> diddledan: ooh fun!:)
[12:31] <MartijnVdS> "plain" serial or USB? (remember the latency..)
[12:32] <diddledan> it's on a pi via the gpio headers for serial-nmea/gps and an additional pin for kernel-based pps
[12:32] <MartijnVdS> ah cool
[12:32] <diddledan> my soldering work was shoddy tho :-p
[12:35] <MartijnVdS> :D
[13:14] <diddledan> guess when I got the config sorted: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qcs32cjpbb1h0rg/ntp-initial-sync.bmp?dl=0
