Ice Machine Convention • Weimar, Texas, USA
Rolleiflex SL66 • Kodak Tri-X 400 • 2025
Daily upload - Mar 26 - Rusted machine, Mare Island CA 00560 (2025)
Let me give you some context:
I was actually only working on the machine because a pump had stopped running. The error message was already showing on the control screen, but the CNC machine kept running. The worst that could have happened was the coolant collection tank overflowing.
In any case, the transfer pump wasn’t running, and the motor protection switch kept tripping after a few seconds.
I measured the windings on the motor, but everything was fine. Now I’d love to know what the pump was thinking, lol.
Anyway, everything was electrically sound, and the motor protection switch did exactly what it was supposed to do to prevent damage.
After cleaning the collection tank and the pump, everything should be working again.
Fancy a bit of PLC? No?
Never mind, here we go!

The #law also refers to other elements that can’t be attributed to a #machine, Millet said, when it requires an #author’s “signature” to transfer, talks about co-authors’ “intention,” & refers to an author’s “nationality or domicile.”
“Machines do not have property, traditional human lifespans, family members, domiciles, nationalities, mentes reae, or signatures,” Millet said, later adding that “the #Copyright Act makes no sense if an ‘author’ is not a human being.”

"We have come more and more under the dominance of mechanics and sacrificed living humanity to the dead rhythm of the machine without most of us even being conscious of the monstrosity of the procedure. Hence we frequently deal with such matters with indifference and in cold blood as if we handled dead things and not the destinies of men."
— Rudolf Rocker
