if the workers didn't know I'm one of them they'd just leave it at the post office

@KING LIAM any Russian cnc vids you recc?

srsly

<:italianthink:327934554126155776>

pizza or pasta who cares am I right

calzone > pizza

its just pizza

but closed

mfw I make calzone with every pizza

its pizza for people who dont like to share

Anyone know anything about CNCs?

i do

i work em

I worked with some

i stude tyem

10. I do
20. but just a bit
30. it's retarded kek

back in school

Might be buying one if it goes on sale, how difficult would it be to figure ou the speeds and feeds for aluminum on a chink hobby machine?

chinks dont provide reference sheets?

They probably do but I wouldn't trust them.

well

it shouldnt be too hard to tweak the sheets yourself

empirical!

just stay at a safe distance

do you have any article with a public reference sheet in description?

Anything to look out for and tweak?

https://youtu.be/5nO1Aci9AmM

honestly looks pretty basic

Yeah but I'm on a budget, wouldn't be looking at chinkshit machines otherwise

yeah i know

what i meant is

you shouldnt really have much trouble figuring it out

Oh, thought there was more than git gud at G code and pirated solidworks <:wholesomethonk:373550351082848267>

well

there is a lot but its mostly like

optimization n stuff

youre doing this as a hobby so it shouldnt be a huge concern right

Yep, hoping to buy a used machine when I get more money and time. Like a lot more.

yeah

my company is getting new cnc lasers

and some bending machines

im stoked tbh

theyre crazy accurate

Metrology is pretty much magic and shit

Fucking russians can get nitecore tube for cheap reeeeeeeeee

how cheap?

they're only like $5

4 dollars

wew

With app, maybe

no?

just use a coupon code

I did, it's russia only

just wait for a non-regional code

i ordered mine a week ago for $5

I have a way of missing all the sales I want

This fcuking green electronics bag

Its 6$ on zapals

Or was, atleast

2 dollars is like 40 minutes of work man

It's 2 useless trinkets I could buy

you make 3 dollars an hour?

@Sapharanth there's nitecore tube coupons almost every day, be patient my friend

unless you're from the UK, they're banned to import here

how the fuck is a flashlight banned

why

looks like a taser or something

Christ, that is just dumb.

0 nukes weren't enough for the UK

you can buy them locally here but not import for some reason

and the prices are jacked up locally

£10 instead of £3

But if they're banned from import, how are they arriving in stores for sale? <:thvnk:332928260004642827>

no idea, ask Gearbest kek I keep trying to buy tubes and they say they're illegal to sell to me

👍

Buy on aliexpresz

They don't give a shit

Also thanks for reccing DH gate for switchblades, have a couple on the way. Hope customs doesn't pull shenanigans.

If they DO, do you get a knock on your door from the police, or a letter that says "hey faggot, stop ordering illegal shit"

Nah, think they just throw them out.

"Throw them out"

Or pocket them

You mean some customs worker gets a free switchblade

If that happens I hope they get castrated by my shitty chink knife.

When I worked for the car rental company, I got so much free shit from stupid pricks leaving shit in the cars when they turned it back in

then be too fucking lazy to come back to get it or pay shipping for us to ship to them

Got my first pebble smartwatch that way

Isn't it commonly known as a dick move

Or did you at least inform them

He informed them

"Too lazy to get it or pay shipping to get it shipped to them"

Ahh then it's all fine

I can't remeber, was the stereotypical greaser switchblade OTF or side folding?

I have a huge box full of car phone chargers that they left, I must've gotten 20 pairs of earbuds, and a full-sized turkey roasting pot

OTF, I think

greasers dont get otfs

<:thvnk:332928260004642827>

they just use a hammer

cmon

Whatever my filthy wop friend would like it anyway.

chink shit I am waiting for ATM... <:umaru:232470184445607937>

how can I determine which staples I should get from Ali for this?

im pretty sure those arduino kits are a huge ripoff

ducking discord

well, for starters and not wanting to know what to do they are ok. Here at uni we use those instead of paying for the "real deal"

I mean if you just pick the parts out yourself you'll get 10 times as much for nearly the same amount of shekel

i know

but i guess 35 is not that bad... probably when i get more into controls and systems i would order pieces individually

You are like little baby

the pieces*

sheeeit you have quite a lot of stuff going on

>buying chink shit that comes into contact with food

i think i'll stick to IKEA for that

I got a bunch of one-way food containers from China

it was good

I ordered that kit since i have two options for grad school... aerospace engineering or controls, and i am undecided what i want to do with my life, so i decided play with arduinos if i like controls @Goz3rr if you are curious.

i've got too much electronics components and dozens of microcontrollers

bought because _i might need this in the future and wouldnt want to wait then_

aerospace probably i am going with CFD and scientific computing

I think Stainless Steel is fairly safe.

those ladles dont look stainless steel

kek

Oh, i thought you meant the stainless steel cup.

also arduinos or texas instruments microcontrollers?

some arduinos

no TI shit

@Deleted User STM32

^

i have a random assortment really

few unos, the micros and pros which i cant keep apart

a few kinds of bare ATtiny's and ATmega chips

some STM32

teensy

hmmm i am new to this of arduinos. I did some arduino tinkering on measurement class but nothing serious like i want to do right now. I heard the TI are for "the real deal" and the arduinos good for prototyping

is that true or a meme

?

arduinos have the advantage of the ecosystem and they come with a bootloader

oh i have some ESP8266s and ESP32s too

forgot about those

but the 8bit atmega chips (in the arduinos) are quite slow compared to others

the esp is quite fun

can do alot more with network

Meme, arduinos are just an atmega chip, you can program them without arduino IDE. But stm32 are more powerful for less money. Don't know much about TI

people who attach arduinos to ESPs

why.jpg

5v

i guess

Also FPGAs are cool

buy a billion logic level converts from ali from a fww cents

i used FPGAs in school

link?

they seem so fucking pointless unless you have this very specific usecase and want it fast

development time is complete and utter ass

i am searching for arduinos pros in ali atm

Arduino has a usable ADC and more IO than esp8266

apparently those are for semi permanent controls*

my laptop with an i7-7700HQ, 16GB ram and SSD takes multiple minutes to compile some shit in quartus

and that just was the hello world equivalent

Arduino pros are just nanos without usb-uart, so you need a separate uart dongle

damn son

most of the thing we did in that class was run a softcore cpu once and then just do your shit in C++

@efaxdi the esp32 has loads of pins, but i not think the software is as mature

There was this massive buttplug posted here earlier, I can't find it

also they have ADCs too don't they

Have you looked in your ass

unless you meant to imply they are unusable

I'd fucking know if it was there

kek

It was like the size of an infant

>buttplug

> i thought that was a 4chan meme

Buttplugs are alright

like those genji buttpads. Sad!

I was talking about 8266, it has 1 shitty adc with 1v input

ok yeah one channel is a bit shit

but the ESP32 has 18 channels

posting my esp32 project

ESP32 is great with IO, esp8266 wasn't that good, so attaching an arduino was oftenly a valid option

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/315284284405710849/381242121924902923/JPEG_20171118_013951.jpg?width=984&height=738

the problem was the actual ESP8266 chip had plenty of IO ports

but most of the breakouts didnt provide them

@Lj4IW9hY3JmTwb looks comfy

like both of these use the same chip

i like the wemos d1 series

ye those are pretty neat

going for the same stackable shield design as arduino uno

wemos started with something new now, x-series or something

seems neat af

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/X-lolin-esp32-OLED-WeMos-D1-Mini-DHT-WS2812B-RGB-relay/32819723566.html?

that seems overpriced

esp32 should be ~$5 and about the same for the neopixel ring

the other parts are pennies

oh wait are those tiny displays

http://essentialscrap.com/eink/

yeah, 2.9inch

because i didnt have enough to do already im attempting to build my own dual channel variable power supply

after i found a neat toroidal transformer for it

two 30V 4A coils and one 12V 0.5A coil

You can do 6 inch or 9.7 inch, but you need to roll your own controller

waveshare has a 7"

comes with a rpi hat, but can also be controlled by spi

>63$

whoa

do you guys make your own PCBs and if so which EDA software

pencil+paper

which chinese boardhouse accepts that :^)

or do you etch it yourself

rip one from a kindle and reveng the protocol

@Goz3rr I use Eagle and UV-resist etching

I've been using kicad and will probably end up with some $5 chinese board house because they can outperform anything i'll manage to pull off

etching seems doable but soldermask (and silkscreen but less essential) seem near impossible

Main disadvantage of a chineese board house is that you have to wait a month to get your boards. Also soldermask is doable with UV-resist.

waiting a month isn't really a problem

i saw some videos on people applying soldermask and it seems near impossible to get an even layer and spread it to all corners

I wonder if it would be worth making group buys with the gizchina b2b service

Depends how much you trust yourself or other people not to fuck you iver

cant trust anybody, not even your family

What about yourself

can you trust yourself

The person most likely to chink you is yourself

<:thinkjojo:333980344044879872>

I have chinked myself more often than the chinks

memes aside, only when sober

can you trust yourself

Before I start I'd like to say that apparently we own fake chink Sharpies

Why is uploading images fucked atm

It nearly always is

I've seen chinky sharpies before

they're called Shoopies or something like that

post pic with shoopy in poopy

uploading images works fine

SHARK NIGHT

tfw shark is at home and I'm at work

>not keeping a Work Shark and a Home Shark and a Car Shark and a

Bed shark

holy fuck I need a shark

shark goes along with droidball

SHARK IS BESTSU

Fuck i should paint my car a shark theme

I wonder if chink paint is any good

are magnetic phone car mounts a meme

or do they work
