chinks are great at hacking and stealing blueprints. or even jsut creating something from nothing

2016-11-16 16:33:58 UTC  

holy shit thats like 20€

2016-11-16 16:34:03 UTC  

or maybe they're made in a factory over there and that factory leaked the blueprints?

2016-11-16 16:34:10 UTC  

okay

2016-11-16 16:34:11 UTC  

^ thats more likely

2016-11-16 16:34:21 UTC  

I've seen blizzards prototype figure

2016-11-16 16:34:24 UTC  

On photos

2016-11-16 16:34:30 UTC  

It is very similar

2016-11-16 16:34:36 UTC  

But some things are different

2016-11-16 16:34:42 UTC  

Like the seam on the cape

i dont doubt the official is better quality

2016-11-16 16:35:44 UTC  

And, well the fact that reaper's name is apparently Lena oxton

2016-11-16 16:35:55 UTC  

hahaha yeah i saw that

2016-11-16 16:36:58 UTC  

Gonna gift it to a friend on Saturday. I'm sure he won't even think about whether its fake or not

2016-11-16 16:44:41 UTC  

me too. friends coming to visit, its their easy christmas present

2016-11-16 16:44:45 UTC  

early*

2016-11-16 16:47:06 UTC  

other friend is getting the xiaomi band

2016-11-16 16:53:49 UTC  

anyone here with exp doing IoT projects with ESP8266 nodemcu type devices from ali

2016-11-16 16:54:48 UTC  

i'm trying to decide if I should buy 20 of them; any issues with these getting exploited from outside, are they hard to work with in any weird way

2016-11-16 16:57:07 UTC  

I understood projects

2016-11-16 16:57:26 UTC  

sorry lol

2016-11-16 16:57:33 UTC  

they're nifty little $3 wifi-connected Arduino things

2016-11-16 16:57:48 UTC  

Oh, sounds interesting

2016-11-16 16:58:13 UTC  

the meme project is making your own amazon dash button basically

2016-11-16 16:58:15 UTC  

I used to play around with arduino and stuff I bought off aliexpress

2016-11-16 16:58:43 UTC  

Almost made a self driving Rc car

2016-11-16 16:58:52 UTC  

cool

2016-11-16 16:59:08 UTC  

radar?

2016-11-16 16:59:54 UTC  

Loads of ultrasonic receptors, ir luminosity detector and a specially made cardboard black and while road

2016-11-16 17:00:35 UTC  

It could detect any obstacle, drive around obstacles, follow a curvy road, self park between two vehicles or obstacles

2016-11-16 17:01:07 UTC  

Basically every single "function" worked. But somehow putting everything together was impossible

2016-11-16 17:01:56 UTC  

yeah the complexity management for building a system like that explodes quickly

2016-11-16 17:02:09 UTC  

it's easy to make something with linear inputs

2016-11-16 17:02:21 UTC  

line follower is okay

2016-11-16 17:02:34 UTC  

more than one condition is ehhh

2016-11-16 17:02:46 UTC  

paralel processing is where it gets fun

2016-11-16 17:03:04 UTC  

i loved that shit in Automation engineering

2016-11-16 17:03:39 UTC  

right, it becomes a design project for school

2016-11-16 17:03:45 UTC  

not really a hobby thing

2016-11-16 17:03:49 UTC  

well it could but
