L10[04:06:58] <MichiBot> You drink a silent naqahdah potion (New!). Forecaster's skin turn the color of oculemon but with a lime glow until they recite the litany against fear.

L18[07:26:17] <Forec​aster> %tonk

L19[07:26:17] <MichiBot> Aw jeez! Forec​aster! You beat Mic​hiyo's previous record of 4 hours, 21 minutes and 40 seconds (By 21 minutes and 54 seconds)! I hope you're happy!

L22[11:15:04] <MichiBot> You drink a tiny honey potion (New!). Forecaster grows whiskers for 2 hours.

L23[11:15:26] <Forec​aster> agh

L26[13:12:57] <Va​ur> %tonk

L27[13:12:58] <MichiBot> Fudge! Va​ur! You beat Forec​aster's previous record of 4 hours, 43 minutes and 35 seconds (By 1 hour, 3 minutes and 5 seconds)! I hope you're happy!

L29[14:40:00] <Forec​aster> hm, I've got 2 nice looking stepper motors from a printer I scavenged, but apparently the drivers were integrated into the main board >:

L30[14:48:33] <Elfi> That's too bad

L31[14:49:31] <Forec​aster> yeah, now I have to get drivers for them to use them

L32[14:49:38] <Forec​aster> not that I know that to use them for yet

L33[15:22:09] <Forec​aster> hrm, my mining script is still too stupid

L34[15:22:29] <Forec​aster> I need to figure out a way to determine that a target is behind other asteroids and reposition accordingly

L35[15:22:58] <Forec​aster> just now it found a target that was behind another asteroid and it was about to begin approaching that asteroid instead

L36[15:23:31] <Elfi> Solution: dig through both asteroids

L37[15:31:05] <Forec​aster> sadly I can't do that

L38[15:31:11] <Forec​aster> that would have made this way easier

L39[15:31:32] <Amanda> solution 2: the squeekal, shoot the front asteroids with nukes

L40[17:41:14] <Forec​aster> huh, I apparently also have two micro clutches

L41[17:41:24] <Forec​aster> at first I thought they were regular motors

L42[17:42:32] <Forec​aster> They might actually be useful...

L43[17:43:05] <Forec​aster> I want to make an electronic unlocking system that attaches to my apartment door on the inside

L44[17:43:35] <Forec​aster> I can use a microclutch to separate the drive motor from the lock until it needs to manipulate it

L46[18:43:01] <Forec​aster> Catbus

L47[19:19:19] <Forec​aster> oh, I have a step motor driver from a kit I got for the Pi

L48[19:19:41] <Forec​aster> not sure if it'll work for these motors though, they're quite a bit bigger than the one that came with the kit

L49[19:21:04] <Va​ur> %tonkout

L50[19:21:04] <MichiBot> Yow! Va​ur! You beat your own previous record of 5 hours, 46 minutes and 40 seconds (By 21 minutes and 25 seconds)! I hope you're happy!

L51[19:21:05] <MichiBot> Va​ur has tonked out! Tonk has been reset! They gained 0.006 tonk points! plus 0.01 bonus points for consecutive hours! Current score: 1.51873625, Position #1

L52[19:21:14] <Va​ur> %sip

L53[19:21:15] <MichiBot> You drink a thick ocean potion (New!). Dramatic music briefly plays in the distance.

L54[19:33:40] <Forec​aster> drivers that can handle 24V motors are expensive

L55[19:39:04] <Forec​aster> oh no, the one in the kit can handle up to 50V apparently

L56[19:39:36] <Forec​aster> just need to figure out how to use it with a 4-wire motor instead of a 5-wire motor like the one in the kit

L57[19:44:08] <Amanda> Easy! First you must create the universe

L58[19:44:30] <Forec​aster> I don't want to make an apple pie

L59[19:44:46] <Amanda> Creating the universe is the first step in a lot of things, surprisingly

L60[19:45:19] <Forec​aster> I don't believe it

L61[19:47:25] <Va​ur> %sip

L62[19:47:25] <MichiBot> You drink a runny unobtanium potion (New!). The potion contained a computer virus! Vaur hears a maniacal laugh as their cursor flips upside down!

L63[19:52:01] <Forec​aster> %sip

L64[19:52:01] <MichiBot> You drink a freezing toxictop potion (New!). Sitting down suddenly seems like a really terrible idea.

L66[19:52:18] <Forec​aster> that sounds like a terrible potion

L72[23:43:15] <Va​ur> %sip

L73[23:43:15] <MichiBot> You drink a smelly cyan potion (New!). The bottle turns into an oculemon trident.
