16:05.30 | CosmicPenguin | thats less then I expected - but pretty good considering the mistakes they made a few days ago |

16:23.11 | CosmicPenguin | That and Formula 1 |
16:24.10 | sorphin | nod |
16:25.42 | CosmicPenguin | I don't think we do many US endorsements, for the same reason we don't do much in the way of advertising |
16:31.15 | sorphin | nod |
16:31.47 | sorphin | but yet many intel ones |
16:31.57 | sorphin | included the pastel colored clean room suits |
16:32.20 | TheCollector | amd's stuff sells itself cause its good |
16:32.21 | CosmicPenguin | I don't know if we've ever had a commercial that aired on US airwaves |
16:32.44 | CosmicPenguin | Whats the point? |
16:32.55 | CosmicPenguin | Joe Dumbass is going to buy his computer from CompUSA or Dell or Gateway |
16:33.02 | CosmicPenguin | and you can't get an AMD from them anyway |
16:34.01 | sorphin | you can get AMD from worstbuy |
16:35.12 | CosmicPenguin | My wife has one of those |
16:35.28 | CosmicPenguin | Its a power hog though - our mobile offerings have been weak |
16:35.31 | CosmicPenguin | in the past - we're improving |

16:41.08 | fishhead | when does the shuttle launch |
16:41.15 | sorphin | yeah |
16:41.20 | CosmicPenguin | fishhead: he's riding out the storm - it moved further south, so he's just looking at a tropical storm |
16:41.23 | TheCollector | 5:00 Central |
16:41.28 | fishhead | good :) |
16:41.37 | fishhead | collect is that 3 eastern ? |

16:41.43 | fishhead | ah |
16:41.44 | fishhead | thx |
16:41.52 | fishhead | thx |
16:42.02 | TheCollector | nasa has a pretty nice stream on their site, if ya dont mind wmv or real |
16:42.02 | sorphin | TheCollector: i think they got their game together better now, after seeing they caught that window cover.. tho it's sick that a < 2lb cover can crap a heat tile |
16:42.17 | TheCollector | sorphin: yeah, it is a bit unnerving |
16:42.28 | sorphin | those things are ceramic |
16:42.34 | sorphin | shouldn't be THAT fragile |
16:43.52 | sorphin | ah |
16:43.52 | TheCollector | the whole STS-107 disaster hit way too close to home |
16:44.42 | fishhead | sorphin |
16:44.45 | sorphin | well, w/ a few hundred cameras watching the launch this time |
16:44.46 | fishhead | blame the tree huggers |
16:44.49 | fishhead | seriously no joke |
16:44.53 | sorphin | i think they have some eyes watching ;) |
16:44.57 | fishhead | they forced nasa to use a inferior heat tile |
16:45.01 | fishhead | because they whined about the old ones |
16:45.15 | sorphin | plus w/ the new stuff for checking the hull in space, and repairing, etc |
16:45.40 | TheCollector | yeah, this mission is supposed to test all the new methods for fixing the tiles |
16:46.24 | fishhead | I am still pissed at nasa for columbia |
16:46.28 | fishhead | probably never forgive them |
16:46.43 | sorphin | what an ordeal |
16:46.51 | fishhead | yeah cermanics are damn brittle |
16:47.03 | fishhead | their saving face is the fact they can take heat like a mofo |

16:47.50 | mbuf | hi |
16:47.56 | TheCollector | mbuf: howdy |
16:48.03 | fishhead | well my point is only they should have told the astronauts |
16:48.05 | mbuf | TheCollector, doing good, and you ? |
16:48.08 | fishhead | they would at least had a chance to try something |
16:48.21 | TheCollector | fishhead: I agree |
16:48.28 | fishhead | no matter how remote |
16:48.35 | fishhead | pissing on the outside of the shuttle even |
16:48.38 | fishhead | is better than nothing |
16:48.45 | TheCollector | heh |
16:48.55 | mbuf | quick question, can we make our own parallel-to-serial port cable? or should I buy one? my 8051 controller has a serial port, but, my laptop doesn't have one |
16:48.55 | TheCollector | well, time for lunch |
16:49.18 | fishhead | mbuf should be easy with one of those 74 series logic serial to parallel chips |
16:49.24 | fishhead | mbuf na even easier |
16:49.27 | fishhead | get a usb to serial adaptor |
16:49.36 | fishhead | the good ones are pretty transparent to the software |
16:49.56 | sorphin | mbuf: as in converting serial to parallel data |
16:49.57 | fishhead | as long as linux has a driver it will map it to a standard /dev/ttyS |
16:49.58 | sorphin | heh |
16:50.02 | fishhead | so you can just treat it as such |
16:50.17 | mbuf | so i should just get a usb-to-serial adapter? |
16:50.25 | sorphin | mbuf: that's what most people do |
16:50.31 | sorphin | they generally work just fine |
16:50.32 | fishhead | mbuf join #electronics and #robotics and #avr |
16:50.33 | mbuf | sorphin, thanks, i shall try that |
16:50.36 | fishhead | they know a little more than me |
16:50.42 | fishhead | someone should know for sure |
16:50.49 | mbuf | fishhead, thanks, didn't know about those channels |
16:50.53 | fishhead | np :) |
16:50.56 | fishhead | btw |
16:50.59 | fishhead | 8051 is a favorite |
