thafreak | If you were to make a new file server...one giant volume with folders for each share | 02:07 |
---|---|---|
thafreak | or one volume per share? | 02:07 |
canthus13 | Good question. | 03:04 |
Unit193 | Have you ever used Launchpad PPAs with Debian? | 03:50 |
dmcglone1 | Hello | 03:54 |
canthus13 | Unit193: Nope. | 04:45 |
paultag | canthus13: oh lordy, what? | 04:50 |
paultag | hahaha this is great | 04:51 |
* paultag reads through | 04:51 | |
paultag | oh jeez | 04:53 |
paultag | this is brilliant | 04:53 |
paultag | Gah!!! One of their circuts is wrong | 04:54 |
paultag | they need a diode to prevent the transistor from burning out if the realy backlash is too strong | 04:55 |
paultag | because the tranny is only 5v | 04:55 |
paultag | i've blown 2N2222A's off a relay before | 04:55 |
paultag | Oh wait, nvmd | 04:55 |
paultag | there it is | 04:55 |
paultag | hahahahah | 04:56 |
paultag | echo cappuccino >/dev/coffee | 04:56 |
paultag | The advantage of this method is that it supports feedback from the coffee-machine by using the ACK of parallel port and such, so that smart coffee-machines can produce an interrupt when ready. | 04:57 |
paultag | Um... fucking brilliant? | 04:57 |
paultag | Yes? | 04:57 |
paultag | I wonder if I can get my crappy coffie machine talking back to my box | 04:58 |
paultag | 5. Building the Turing Complete Coffee Machine | 04:58 |
paultag | Oh you fucking coy bastard | 04:58 |
paultag | This chapter is about assembling a smart, intelligent!, coffee machine. It will be a computer designed with a von Neumann architecture, comprised of a CPU, ROM/RAM and I/O and will also be suitable for generic use, a.k.a. Universal Turing Machine. | 04:59 |
paultag | I need to do this | 05:01 |
paultag | canthus13: you, fine sir, rule. | 05:01 |
canthus13 | paultag: :) | 05:25 |
canthus13 | I Kinda figured it'd pique your interest... | 05:25 |
Cheri703 | paultag: if yours doesn't do what you need, scour the thrift stores, coffee makers ABOUND | 05:35 |
canthus13 | I may attempt to make one as my first real project. :) | 05:37 |
paultag | canthus13: :) | 05:41 |
paultag | Cheri703: hell yeah! :) | 05:41 |
paultag | canthus13: dude, I need to write a generic interface kernel module | 05:41 |
canthus13 | :) | 05:42 |
paultag | then just post hardware interface schematics on my blag or something | 05:42 |
canthus13 | I could migrate my irssi session over to the coffee maker... :) | 05:42 |
paultag | humm, I wish I could set up a pump against my water line | 05:42 |
paultag | canthus13: totally! | 05:42 |
paultag | then I could fill the coffee maker with water, then brew | 05:43 |
paultag | actually, wait | 05:43 |
canthus13 | Not a pump. just a solenoid. | 05:43 |
paultag | canthus13: truth | 05:43 |
canthus13 | the line's already pressurized. | 05:43 |
canthus13 | could scavenge what you need from an ice maker. | 05:44 |
paultag | why not ust take the actual coffee maker part and isolate it, get it feeding coffee from a hopper, water in from the wall, then output the coffee to one of N waiting coffee storage units | 05:44 |
paultag | a little 1/4 cup spinnything should work for the hopper | 05:44 |
canthus13 | Hmm... | 05:45 |
paultag | it's be nice to get the "storage units" to have small little contact points going up the side | 05:46 |
paultag | so you can see the water level | 05:46 |
paultag | and show it like the battery power in the top right | 05:46 |
canthus13 | Hmm... Just as long as it doesn't crash all the time like my wife's coffee maker. :P | 05:47 |
paultag | :) | 05:47 |
paultag | read on /dev/coffeepot will return fill status, and writing to it will produce that many cups | 05:47 |
paultag | that'd be brilliant | 05:47 |
canthus13 | Haha! I could really get into this... And I don't drink coffee. But my wife would love it. :) | 05:48 |
paultag | it'd be brilliant :) | 05:48 |
paultag | I sense a new project | 05:49 |
paultag | only issue is finding tubing that can handle hot coffee | 05:50 |
paultag | don't want to use plastic | 05:50 |
paultag | perhaps I'll get some new oil lines, the braided steel ones | 05:50 |
paultag | those handle oil off the engine | 05:50 |
paultag | ach, but the filter will be crappy | 05:50 |
canthus13 | True... | 05:50 |
canthus13 | Hmm.. Steel filters. My wife has one for her one-cup coffee maker. | 05:51 |
paultag | yeah, I've got one too, but you still have to empty it and wash it out upside down | 05:51 |
paultag | OK I need to go to bed before I get too into this | 05:52 |
paultag | canthus13: thanks so much man, this is bloody brilliant | 05:52 |
paultag | BBL :) | 05:52 |
canthus13 | No problem. :) | 05:52 |
Cheri703 | might give you guys some ideas: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qy-3gU44q6Y | 05:57 |
* Cheri703 remembered watching it back in the day | 05:58 | |
dmcglone | hey all, I missed the meeting wednesday, and I can't find the chat logs, anybody know where they are? | 14:34 |
Cheri703 | anyone have a 1 or 2 gb SD card they no longer want/need? /me could do with one for the trip to UDS | 18:38 |
Cheri703 | my camera can't take SDHC and all I have are 512mb | 18:38 |
canthus13 | Hmm... nope. :( | 19:38 |
* canthus13 has a couple of 256mb somewhere..maybe. | 19:39 | |
Cheri703 | my dad found a 1gb mini and an adapter, I have a 1gb mini and adapter, so I'm going to take those two and my two 512 and I should have PLENTY of storage for what I need each day | 19:39 |
canthus13 | Heh. cool. | 20:04 |
Cheri703 | considering playing with RAW images...I downloaded chdk for my canon camera and now have that capability... | 20:10 |
