Jay-Cee | Takyoji, will you be attending the release party April 30th? | 01:19 |
---|---|---|
Takyoji | Location? | 01:19 |
Jay-Cee | in the cities, i think hopkins | 01:20 |
Takyoji | Perhaps | 01:20 |
Jay-Cee | from what i remember your located in faribault, i'm heading up from owatonna, if you want to hitch a ride | 01:20 |
Jay-Cee | just thought I would offer | 01:23 |
Takyoji | <Takyoji> I wonder what would be a reasonable means of having a series of sensors, go to an Arduino board, and have the output given over RS232 to a desktop. | 04:15 |
Takyoji | <Takyoji> Moreso, the part doing with sensors and the Arduino board. | 04:15 |
Takyoji | <Takyoji> Mainly, for a series of fish tanks, for simple analytics such as: temperature, water clarity/color, waterlevel, etc | 04:15 |
Takyoji | <Takyoji> Where all I can think of are thermoresistors for temperature, and a series of white LEDs with color filters, and photoconductor. | 04:15 |
Takyoji | <Takyoji> and everything of the above would be a matter of measuring resistance; I suppose. I'm relatively stupid with making something hardware-wise that's actually useful. xP | 04:15 |
tonyyarusso | RS232? What century is this? | 04:17 |
tonyyarusso | But yes, you could certainly do this with Arduino, but heck if I know how. -offtopic might. | 04:17 |

damian | So who else is thinking about moving away from gnome because of Unity and Gnome3? | 18:24 |
ColinHarrington | I think that unity will be an awesome default for the beginner crowd. I'm not sold yet. I have my Gnome desktop setup humming and going really well for my own development. | 20:52 |
ColinHarrington | I'm a little concerned that Unity isn't going to be as configurable as what I currently have. | 20:52 |
ColinHarrington | But we'll see | 20:52 |
ColinHarrington | but, I'm a power user and a developer, I have tons of stuff running on my machine all the time. | 20:53 |
rlaager | Is there an Ubuntu release that does not include "classic GNOME" yet? (I'm still on Lucid.) Until that happens, I'm not going to worry about it too much. | 21:31 |
tonyyarusso | rlaager: Nope, and it won't happen anytime soon. Unity requires 3D acceleration support in the graphics driver, and many users do not have that. | 21:35 |
