- Comment on After 3 prototypes and several motors I finally got this cat toy motorized, still pretty loud though I wonder if I can dampen the gearbox somehow 2 days ago:
Not sure, do you mean like, angled real sharp? Because I believe there’s a bit of a rounded fillet on the teeth of the gears
- Comment on After 3 prototypes and several motors I finally got this cat toy motorized, still pretty loud though I wonder if I can dampen the gearbox somehow 2 days ago:
I mean the motor is actually smaller than the base of the teasers that it’s spinning around, I probably have an inch and a half of space around the thing, only thing is, it’s an open gear box for some reason, so I don’t want to go sticking cotton or something in there to deafen it, I could oil it sure but its a brand new motor it theoretically should be pretty smooth.
Another thing that may be affecting this is weight distribution, the “slot” for the motor arm is more or less just hot glue, it has a good grip but I doubt its totally center, and I bet that matters with this wide of a balance it has to compensate for.
Idk I might try and 3d print another one with a custom slot but getting the threads right for the toys arms might be a bit of a bitch

Care to elaborate?
- Comment on If you think about how big the universe is, the fact that we can manipulate energy on such a small scale, like raising the temperature of something by one degree is absolutely insane 1 week ago:
My mistake with the wording, I will say though infrared light raspberry pi are no, still would not be enough for that. You need serious lab equipment. Like advanced cooling methods to achieve this sort of thing. That’s why I chose this range. With your method I could see possibly being able to do a percentage of a degree in keeping it stable with no outside forces, but accuracy within a millionth I think is a stretch

My man… You cannot achieve temperature stability within accuracy of a fucking micro kelvin with “an infrared lamp and some maths”

Could be, I tend to find things rather fascinating

Well think about this, are you able to manipulate temperature within one degree? Sure. Get a stove. How about one one millionth of a degree? Is that easy to achieve? Its not. Same on a cosmic scale, changing things by one million degrees? Easy as pie, one degree? No way. Sure, you have done it a million times to get to a million degrees but you didn’t do it with precision.
That’s what I think is amazing, our precision only capable at this level because of our size and capability in this universe

Well think about it, an asteroid just a mile wide hits a planet, the impact plume would reach about 20,000k, or 35,000 F, but on a planet wide scale even those numbers are meaningless, a statewide scale? Forget about it. We may think we’re hot shit when we can raise our ovens up to 500⁰ or melt steel, but, in the grand scheme of things we’re playing with grains of sand on the beach of energy manipulation

Just because someone made a meme relatable to them doesn’t mean it’s an attack on you.

True, the one fatal flaw

What a waste of cream cheese. Here use it in this instead
- Comment on Could I just create my own drive format? 3 weeks ago:
I do think it would be fun, I would also love to just have a bit of tech that is “all my own” in a way
- Comment on Could I just create my own drive format? 3 weeks ago:
This is why I love Lemmy, I can ask this obscure, unrealistic question, and people will still answer it with the “yeah you probably shouldn’t but here’s how you could”
- Comment on Could I just create my own drive format? 3 weeks ago:
Oh don’t worry, knowing me, I would create it, use it for a single drive and never touch it again. Its the fun of creation that counts

Besides, does it matter? I’m sure you’re aware as I am that humans are just the worst on the Internet. That screen between you and something horrible does a lot for courage
- Comment on Water Snek 4 weeks ago:
Sure, but “there’s no stupid requests for knowledge” doesn’t really roll off the tongue
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
I sincerely hope I never have a horrible thing happen to me or my loved ones that’s then broadcast over the Internet, like yeah, I get it. Clever joke, but it’s still a horrible tragedy
- Comment on Water Snek 4 weeks ago:
See, this doesn’t fall into that though does it? You’re asking a question maliciously with probably a pretty good idea that the question doesn’t make sense.
For someone who doesn’t know something, asking is the smartest thing you can do
- Comment on Water Snek 4 weeks ago:
Tbh I think this is a perfect example of “there are no stupid questions”
Person didn’t know or didn’t think about currents, bet you he still got roasted though

Yeah maybe I can see if the gear is grinding against the body and see about adding some lubricant. As long as I don’t grease the teeth by mistake it should be fine

I just started college again I’m not looking to throw around money for things I can probably fix myself
