Comments:
<0> it was blowing air all day
<0> warm air
<0> what ****s is that there's no way to turn off the air
<1> pilgrim^: The downside is craptastic documentation.
<0> it just blows (?force air system?)
<2> i worked in what has to be one of the biggest beer coolers around today. was in a brewery warehouse, bigger than a superwalmart, kegs as far as the eye can see, whole area kept at 40degrees
<3> get a fan, hang a wash cloth in front of it
<4> L0c0: Put something in the way?
<3> Yaakov yeah I see that. but what it needs is a CF slot
<1> L0c0: I guess that's useful if you have a big ***.
<1> pilgrim^: It has CF and SD.
<3> didn't see that
<1> pilgrim^: And IDE.
<3> did you see the Samsung Flash mem drive laptop announced today?
<3> 30gb iirc
<3> sound= nothing
<1> pilgrim^: Yes, I was looking at info on the prototype about six months ago.
<3> nothign moving, nothing to drop and break
<3> I want that
<5> hahahaha
<3> I had a buddy who built one a while back sort of
<1> pilgrim^: The biggest problem is wear-leveling since a FAT32 or NTFS filesystem was never intended for Flash.
<3> yeah the caching
<6> pilgrim^, how fast is the data transfer rate though?
<3> I/O I/O
<3> P-O slow, but no slower then a physical ATA read
<3> my friend had a Powerbook 520 (68k beast) with a PPC 603 accelerator, maxed memory and a SCSI <> Flash 4gb drive
<3> it ran Mac OS 8.6
<3> he had wireless and a pCMCIA port on it (a mod on one battery compartment
<3> I like hacking older stuff like that. New gadgets are fun but,... the odler stuff is more of a challenge
<1> pilgrim^: We are doing a bunch of embedded Linux stuff now, for Software Defined Radio. Fun stuff.
<1> Hello, Dominique.
<7> Thanks for the +v
<1> pilgrim^: We are going to do some stuff the uses an FPGA for heavy lifting, or maybe a DSP--though I am leaning to the FPGA.
<3> when I 1st looekd at that page I though "Oh a Basic Stamp gizmo"
<1> It is a 200MHz ARM!
<3> oh, a Newton! :P
<1> About 6 standard deviations away from the Stamp as far as MPUs go.
<1> There is a 400MHz version too.
<3> yeah well I was on the phone then and just glanced
<3> http://www.windowsfordevices.com/files/misc/nano-itx.jpg
<5> heya
<1> pilgrim^: We were looking at Nano-ITX stuff but it is too power hungry.
<4> Yaakov: What's your power footprint?
<3> this weekend I found a old ISA VGA card that had the 18 pin form factor memory on it. I was thrilled! I puleld the chips and populated a 4mb Apple IIgs card I have
<1> astrodog: 3.3V, from a single prismatic LiION cell.
<4> Wattage?
<4> Volts mean nothink. ;)
<1> astrodog: We haven't decided on the target yet, we are still prototyping--but the physical size is important so it is driving the supply source.
<1> astrodog: 3.3V is important because the LiION cell can provide it, that much we have targeted. The battery life is to be determined.
<1> astrodog: We are protoyping with that board, but we will be paring it down into our own design after we get the system operating.
<5> lol
<4> Yaakov: The wattage is what counts.
<4> Voltage is easy. Buy a transformer. :P
<4> Need 6.6? Get a 1:2. ;)
<4> Got a range, atleast?
<1> astrodog: I know Ohm's Law. The decision we have made so far is the battery supply, which means we are targeting 3.3V devices.
<4> Yaakov: Keep in mind, a 3.3V LiIon cell can provide the juice to push a 100,000 volt taser.
<4> ;)
<1> astrodog: We don't have our board designed yet so current is an unknown.
<4> Yaakov: What's the goal for battery life, and physical size?
<1> astrodog: I just said that we don't HAVE a battery life parameter.
<8> so what Yall think about Bush supporting the Israelen prime minster in building an illegal wall around the Gaza strip?
<4> Yaakov: How about an order of magnitude? 1 minute? 10 minutes? An hour? 10 hours? 4 days?
<1> astrodog: As for size, it will be a single prismatic cell, of the cell phone variety.
<1> astrodog: Without an understanding of duty cycle, those numbers are meaningles.
<1> s
<8> okay no biders!!
<8> lets try again:
<8> > so what Yall think about Bush supporting the Israelen prime minster in building an illegal wall around the Gaza strip?
<1> astrodog: I expect hours of transmit at low power and tens of hours of standby (receive).
<4> Yaakov: How much juice do you need for the transmit?
<1> astrodog: That is ambiguous, low power might be about 100mA, high about 500mA.
<1> astrodog: But, since transmitter efficiency is unknown, it could vary considerably.
<1> There is also MPU power, which might be equal to the transmitter.
<4> So ~ .3 watts standby, 1.5 watts transmit
<4> Yaakov: Well... what freq, and how far do ya wanna go? ;)
<1> On receive, we could drop to the 20-50mA range.,
<1> astrodog: It is dual band, ~440Mhz, and ~900MHz.
<4> Ouch, 900.
<9> Superman, is Israel building the wall all the way around Gaza?
<4> That'll be... unpleasant.
<1> The prototype will be single band, but the goal is dual.
<4> Yaak: PM work?
<1> It is commonly done, in amateur gear. The innovation in our case is SDR.
<4> Got some specific questions you might not wanna answer in open channel.
<1> The 440 band for voice, the 900 for digital work.
<1> It has the advantage of being right next to two ISM bands as well.
<2> 440 band should go away into the night
<1> The components will be used for research into ad hoc networks.
<9> Superman, is Israel building the wall all the way around Gaza?
<8> Yes they are
<1> Superman: What makes you super?
<10> http://thinkprogress.org/2006/05/24/delay-colbert/ funny about sources
<11> i think often times sayings that are meant to be ironic are taken literally. two examples are "good fences make good neighbors" and "all is fair in love and war"
<8> and ur president is suporting the act which has the sole effekt of inprisoning the whole of the palestinian people
<9> Superman, is Israel building the wall all the way around Gaza?
<8> YES GOD DAMN IT
<9> Superman, really? A wall on the coast?
<10> Around palestine/
<10> haha
<8> No but around the whole boarder faces israel
<9> Superman, you are just trolling aren't you? There isn't anyone being imprisoned at all is there?
<11> do all you must, do all you can, break all the ****ing rules and go to hell with superman and die like a champion, yah hey!
<9> Superman, so you lies when you said '...building an illegal wall around the Gaza strip...."
<9> right?
<8> no
<9> Well sure you did
<4> Tailor: They might be building a dyke.
<4> :P
<9> And you are trolling, stop, right now.
<10> Seriously he is against isolating the palestians from israel that is valid.
<4> TT: Me, or him? (Both?) Sorry. No cigarettes. I'm testy. ;)
<5> lol
<8> The Fn court in haag declared the wall to b illegal!! And they are isolating the palestinian people
<10> I mean securing israel vs allowing palestine access to israel markets is tough.
<5> lol
<5> damn trolls...heh
<9> Superman, you said they were imprisoning them
<11> darkness imprisoning me...
<12> Superman, you are devoiced (Requested by TheTailor - Reason: Laaaaaame )
<9> idjit
<13> anyone agree that PCP should be legalized?
<9> Superman, see your messages
<10> PCP what does that stand for?
<9> abrumpo, only for you
<13> phencyclidine
<10> I think that is what he is talking about.
<5> The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Dennis Hastert, is under investigation by the FBI, which is seeking to determine his role in an ongoing public corruption probe into members of Congress, ABC News has learned from high level government source
<5> http://blogs.abcnews.com/theblotter/2006/05/federal_officia.html
<5> www.drudgereport.com
<10> Hastert bribery? What was the scandel?
<5> check drudge and that
<10> oh curruption sorry
<10> ok
<14> if they arrest all the politicians that take bribes, there won't be any left
<15> High doses of PCP can also cause seizures, coma, and death
<15> hrmm
<15> doesnt sound very safe
<10> PCP and morphine killed people when used as anaesthetic.
<11> PCP = angel dust
<14> coma and death,hmm sounds more like Alcohol
<11> morphine = kinda like heroin = my drug of choice, but 4 years clean, yay!
<13> PCP is very safe
<14> I'm just glad my son sticks to weed like those nice kids on That 70's Show
<16> ;
<16> hi
<5> well
<17> hastert also demanded documents seized by the fbi in the search of congressmen jeffersons congressional office be returned
<17> :P
