[muted mesa]

wish granted! 😄

[rapid hornet]

yes!!!

[river peak]

@lethal lagoon But who would foot the bill?

[lethal lagoon]

that's it, @river peak i'm putting my foot down

[river peak]

Did I toe the line too much?

Was it a step too far?

[open girder]

i was waiting for the other shoe to drop

[split gazelle]

i want to try to do a MIDI thing with it

[open girder]

everyone is on their toes tonight

[river peak]

@split gazelle What does @lethal lagoon 's cat have to do with it?

[lethal lagoon]

it's standing room only

wait i lost it

[opal wolf]

If you foot switch doesn't work is that a de-feet?

[split gazelle]

because it would be pawsitively awesome

[inner spade]

@split gazelle MIDI -- perfect for tap-dancing.

[river peak]

I'm a little worried that if we continue, someone's going to get socked.

[alpine nova]

that would be some feet

[opal wolf]

No mean feet, but stinky feet maybe....

[lavish patrol]

It's a step in the right direction.

[opal wolf]

You gotta try that new order eater filament....

[river peak]

It's truely a shoe-in

[slow flint]

555 toes , flip flops

[alpine nova]

great feeture

[slow flint]

a 556 maybe, 2 flip flops

[opal wolf]

If you can't stop iterating the design, it's feet-ure creep.

Microcenter's got a good sale on rpi's at thge moment.

[slow flint]

OOS 😃 better "run" off some more

Adafruit 16-Channel PWM / Servo Bonnet for Raspberry Pi https://www.adafruit.com/product/3416

[alpine nova]

almost time to put on your easter bonnet

[opal wolf]

I jury-rigged a simplistic footswitch from radioshack parts way back when. I used it as a punch-in punch-out switch for a four track recorder.

[split gazelle]

@opal wolf that sounds awesome!

[alpine nova]

or did it

[opal wolf]

I think I still have that somewhere. Just a metal enclosre with a momentary switch.

[slow flint]

why not a bonnet that makes an arduino type hat

[opal wolf]

...and a 1/4 inch audio jack.

[river peak]

Ooooh, shiny

[alpine nova]

bless you

Salud, PT.

[lethal lagoon]

is it rigid or flexible

oh

[split gazelle]

i was going to ask about cutting it, that's good to know

[lavish patrol]

Who else is thinking lightsaber?

[muted mesa]

lol. what? 😄

[river peak]

I'm surprised no lightsaber noises have been made yet.

[opal wolf]

[lavish patrol]

@river peak My mike is turned off.

[lethal lagoon]

perfect for a holophonor

[rapid hornet]

we should do voice chat during the shows!

[alpine nova]

lol

[opal wolf]

I wonder if the RasPi 4 wil have usb3 & full gigabit ethernet.

and maybe 2gb ram...

[eager sapphire]

That would be excellent

[muted mesa]

@rapid hornet before i forget...need to revisit the serial_connected for the new nRF. if the UART chip actually turns off...we can capture that.

[slow flint]

is there still an issue getting the volume control on the speaker bonnet?

[river peak]

My comfort level with typing is several orders of magnitude greater than my comfort level with speaking.

[lavish patrol]

Can you use the code with Adafruit resellers?

[split gazelle]

we need those rapid fire puns @river peak

[nimble jackal]

M4... Nice

[open girder]

@lavish patrol naa, that would be up to resellers and we have 2,000 of 'em

[alpine nova]

@river peak is a pun gun

[lethal lagoon]

then we can have another discord channel for livebroadcastchatchat

[lavish patrol]

@open girder Ill ask my local.

[river peak]

@split gazelle My average phone call length over the course of my entire high school career (I could check, I had the same phone and it kept those stats!) was something like 39 seconds.

[clear matrix]

You could try to yell it at the wall...

[river peak]

"Hi. I'm done. Bye."

[alpine nova]

why won't my wall answer me?

[slow flint]

it should be rebranded to mosfet instead of metro

[lavish patrol]

Bye @river peak

[waxen thistle]

Just another brick in the wall.

[whole quail]

Thanks everyone!

[river peak]

But what if the saw can't cope?

[molten ether]

Do you have any suggestions on pitft 2.2 inch graphical errors on a pigrrl zero

[fallow fractal]

FR4

[muted mesa]

@open girder new feather52: does the UART chip actually turn OFF when USB/5V is not connected?

[rapid hornet]

@muted mesa yeah, its unpowered

[eager sapphire]

Considering an update to this new metro and size it like a MEGA with the additional pins?

[forest pebble]

Are there changes for the wifi for raspberry pi 3 b+?(are there different drivers needed)

[muted mesa]

sweet! easy peasy!

[slow flint]

have the extra m4 pis be on an angle header

[eager sapphire]

Roger that, thanks

Yes and i want MORE lol!

[alpine nova]

mr rogers that

[slow flint]

and ffc approved

you dont have any stock, they are all gone

😦

[river peak]

Adafruit isn't a public company, of course they don't have stock.

[clear matrix]

They'll have more Pis soon!

[atomic kestrel]

Give me the pi3 b+ cause I just bought the old version from you guys a few weeks ago.

[lament wolf]

mmmm Pi

[fallow fractal]

I don't like that this offer triggers my greed response. ;)

[slow flint]

since i take so long to shop, i missed out when they were in stock

[alpine nova]

triggers my jeaalousy

[slow flint]

and there was much rejoicing 😛

[waxen thistle]

I only wish a telemarketer called during this very narrow window...

[alpine nova]

but i have no remorse - i love my prize

[lethal lagoon]

grats!

[river peak]

@waxen thistle Nothing preventing you from pretending.

[clear matrix]

@molten ether Is that you?

[river peak]

Too bad April Fools isn't on a Wednesday

[alpine nova]

that is too bad

[slow flint]

the phone ring makes me cringe... i guess its from avoiding the phone at work

[viral sail]

Thanks and good night.

[muted mesa]

[sonic marten]

Awsome broadcast!

[alpine nova]

i was trying to think of a way to work that in to that feet run

[slow flint]

may be back in general later.... steps on own foot 🕺

[waxen thistle]

I'm going to need to rewatch tonight's AAE. A fever does weird things, like hallucinate and pass out while watching a show. I'm laying in bed thinking I'm debugging code and soldering. At the same time. And I couldn't figure out why the soldering wasn't fixing the code.

And for some reason, Mr. Rogers was in the room with me.

[river peak]

He probably told you that you needed to get some sleep.

[waxen thistle]

I finally got up to have my first meal of the day, and I was very much in and out during the broadcast.

[split gazelle]

hope you feel better soon @waxen thistle

[waxen thistle]

Thanks Blitz

....please tell me Mr. Rogers was part of the show somehow.

Otherwise, there's really something off about my subconscious.

[pearl shoal]

Mr. Rogers? Um. Nope.

[river peak]

Phil played the trailer for the new Mr. Rogers movie.

[waxen thistle]

That....explains it then.

He didn't help me much with my soldering though.

The web browser (mozilla) is mixing a youtube playback (music) with your channel just fine, on two different tabs. Bach (Brandenberg Concerto No. 3) is of course overpowering your audio, but you're in there. @haughty quiver

[haughty quiver]

danke!

[fallow fractal]

Mic audio was smooth. Good level (not clipping, don't know if it's loud or soft).

[eager sapphire]

Oh, hey, a favorite, Brandenburg Concerto #3

[inner spade]

Like the beat. A teenage engineering jam?

[solid wyvern]

adafruit is live at https://www.twitch.tv/adafruit

[haughty quiver]

Thanks, it’s Elecroplankton on DS plus Pocket Operator for the beat

[eager sapphire]

You know, if you don’t turn on the amp, you won’t hear sounds out of the speakers.

[inner spade]

Cool, dude.

Good A, good V. Good A/V

[fallow fractal]

My brain behaves a bit like MIDI -- I can't hear the actual performance by remembering, but I can hear the pitch, timbre and so forth of very small bits of music (probably idealized). Learning to replay this kind of composition in my head is challenging, because I don't have the full vocabulary for the 'MIDI' function my brain seems to do (as it does with folk guitar and so forth).

Tiki Password Vault is slightly overwritten by the Ada 'fruit' in lower right, centered nicely in its subwindow @haughty quiver

@haughty quiver can the rate of keystroke playback be made to emulate a fast human typist? Or is it typing much faster than a human would?

[inner spade]

Also, the characteristics of the cap touch will change as you add the copper touch plates.

[fallow fractal]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiki

@haughty quiver might want to bring the mic audio up a bit.

[waxen thistle]

much nicer for me

[fallow fractal]

could be louder still

double quotes not singles

nice and punchy audio and not clipping

[shell mason]

Tiki Vault is Tiki Password

You can ream those with a drill bit

[brave spire]

Is there a recommended way for figuring out your own printers tolerances? Other than trial and error? I find my tolerances can very even on different print designs.

[waxen thistle]

I am always appreciative of the discount codes. They're awesome incentives.

So thank you. 😄

[drifting raft]

indeed

[jaunty escarp]

Unfortunately as much as I appreciate the code I shouldn't spend any more money. Trying to save it since I make $30 a week lol.

I wish I had gotten my code done

[jaunty escarp]

Yeah.

Hello all. I see we are back to half past midnight starting time. 🙄

[covert stag]

I sorta wish they would do this 2 days a week at wildly different times

with a you can only be on 1

[lavish patrol]

So they can get more people on?

[onyx aspen]

How does this usually work? I posted a comment that I'd like to share. Do they just call my Hangouts?

[covert stag]

and more can enjoy wathching

they post a link

[brave spire]

@fallen citrus wondering the same thing...

[signal sage]

When I've done it in the past they send an invite to your hangouts (helps if you have the app) as well as post the hangouts join link to Plus. Since I've been on it before I still have the room in my history.

If you don't get in right away you can still get in mid show. Whenever I finish I always leave the call and finish out watching on YouTube.

@waxen thistle I think you're thinking of BSG...

For us noobs, is there a way to "schedule" joining?

[waxen thistle]

But what if Mr. Tiki has a toothache?

[eager sapphire]

No, that little stargate built by the formerly ascended boyfriend of Capt. Carter...using toaster parts

[signal sage]

There is not AFAIK

[glossy glacier]

No, you just have to be quick on the draw

[soft idol]

That seems unfortunate. All this build up for nothing. 😦

That looks baller

[soft idol]

Holy smokes, that's awesome!

[signal sage]

Are you sure that's a scope and not a metal foundry? 0.0

[waxen thistle]

hahaha 😃 @rapid hornet

[glossy glacier]

its one of the scopes I maintain at work

[gaunt plume]

looks like a science fiction movie set

[strange mantle]

@glossy glacier is the scope behind that warp core?

[glossy glacier]

It really does just look like sci fi doesn't it

[gaunt plume]

...I kinda need the "Null and Voids" poster behind @lethal lagoon , it's rad

[onyx aspen]

Woah!

[haughty quiver]

this is super great @lethal lagoon I like the guide and your experimentation

[gaunt plume]

oh come on adam, you had to make it cooler...

[glossy glacier]

That's the view screen behind the green glow

[waxen thistle]

I don't care what they say, that's not a bunch of hot air! 😃

[pearl shoal]

Does Adafruit sell the paint?

[lavish patrol]

That would make a cool display system.

wow. the leds just kept going.

[soft idol]

That is a LOT of LEDs

[brave spire]

woah that pulse looks pretty cool in the coils

[lethal lagoon]

@haughty quiver thanks so much! it was fun to do and seemed to make more sense than a complex project for this

[gaunt plume]

I can imagine how bright that is, woa

[eager sapphire]

That was cool

[signal sage]

hahaha something always goes wrong

[rapid hornet]

@signal sage how many LEDs was that?

[signal sage]

Forgot to turn on my wifi so Kasa couldn't connect to the lights

This is just over 9,000 NeoPixels.

[gaunt plume]

😮

[split gazelle]

that was a fantastic dolly zoom @glossy glacier

[waxen thistle]

Just over. 😃

[brave spire]

plus or minus

[signal sage]

[gaunt plume]

are all the neopixels at max brightness?

Noooo, I don’t need any more alligator clips! I have a dedicated box for alligator clips because of adabox

[round willow]

STICKERS!!!!!

[waxen thistle]

Question: I've misplaced a few of the Adabox colored inserts from past adaboxes. Are they available online to view?

[real brook]

My 5yo and I had fun putting that puzzle together

[hidden basin]

Hmm, I don't see the Gemma in my kit 😦

[round willow]

@hidden basin look around, maybe it fell

[hidden basin]

I'll have to check at work tomorrow, I had the package delivered there and opened it before I left

[round willow]

Wasn’t that in the iot adabox?

[hidden basin]

The gemma?

[round willow]

No, the movement sensor thing

[dense remnant]

It was

A few things were in prior boxes.

[round willow]

Makes sense, just I never found a use for the first one so now I have two

[dense remnant]

Lol

[round willow]

Two alarms?

[dense remnant]

I used one in my toolbox, to alert me when my daughter was getting stuff out of it.

[round willow]

That’s cool

The antenna is cool too

Wow, yeah, pre-recorded

[dense remnant]

Yes it is

[waxen thistle]

@haughty quiver You're muted.

[round willow]

No sound

[real brook]

I think his mic was in the faraday cage 😉

[waxen thistle]

Loud and clear!

[round willow]

Darn auto-focus

[split gazelle]

the lock is really awesome. probably my favorite surprise in the box

[shell mason]

auto focus of focus

[round willow]

brings lock picking tools to an escape room

[waxen thistle]

I always wanted a clear lock for demo purposes to go with the beginner & intermediate locks I got from TOOOL....and the SDR is really cool.

[real brook]

Yeah my freind and I were arguing which is better: the lockpics or the SDR

Picking locks? What a toool. 😃

Good Idea: Writing a secret message with a UV ink pen.

Bad Idea: Writing a wedding invitation with a UV ink pen.

The End.

[round willow]

Spy themed wedding?

[waxen thistle]

"Does anyone have a reason that these two should not get married? Speak now or forever hold your peace."

-14 ninjas descend from the ceiling-

[hidden basin]

Do ninjas speak?

[round willow]

ring is actually an rfid key to unlock a safe

[shell mason]

ninjas can control they heartrate so some good hearing cant hear they heart beating

[waxen thistle]

When two hearts beat as one...they lose track of their target.

HI

[waxen thistle]

Hiya @open girder ! I have a question -- I've misplaced a few of the Adabox colored inserts from past adaboxes. Are they available online to view?

[open girder]

@haughty quiver what was YOUR favorite project

[shell mason]

hi Park, @haughty quiver

[inner spade]

✋

[solemn dock]

✋

[open girder]

@waxen thistle well, maybe for a few folks, if you are a cool helper and are nice, yes

[kindred stirrup]

Got mine today!

[open girder]

@waxen thistle for you yes 😃

[solemn dock]

My room mate and I have been having a blast practicing picking the lock

[viral charm]

✋

[past nova]

Lock picking I tried first and got it in about 10 mins no video 😀

[waxen thistle]

Awesome 😃 Thank you @open girder

PUZZLE CAM

[past nova]

I love this box, wish I got started sooner

[open girder]

it's like CUBE

he's trapped in it

has to solve puzzles

[solemn dock]

What's the frequency range of the SDR radio?

[round willow]

And make puzzles

[split gazelle]

i'm planning to mod podge the puzzle and frame it

[covert stag]

Do you like the M0 over the v2 ?

[open girder]

it was not a coincidence, it was planned, we plan all of this

[waxen thistle]

JP's workshop is an Escape Room of his own design...

[covert stag]

why or why not

[green pagoda]

@split gazelle me too

[inner spade]

looks like RTL logic chips. Barely digital.

[muted mesa]

Thanks @haughty quiver! (i'm only here for the JP JAMZ) 😄

[past nova]

Thanks @haughty quiver

[green pagoda]

Thank you!!! @haughty quiver

[waxen thistle]

What was that you could win if you post the puzzle?

[tight spade]

@haughty quiver great job

[viral charm]

Thanks @haughty quiver

[covert stag]

a weight in feathers

[tight spade]

So who is going to load wget on the Gemma with some bat scripting?

[haughty quiver]

thanks so much!

[hidden basin]

An adafruit feather and 20 featherwings

[rocky reef]

awesome job @haughty quiver

[waxen thistle]

That's what I thought I heard, but I wasn't sure. Twenty?! Awesome!

[haughty quiver]

TWENTY!

[tight spade]

You can fly with 20 feathers 😃

[haughty quiver]

@solemn dock 24MHz to 1766MHz

[solemn dock]

Cool, thanks! 😃

[haughty quiver]

my favorite project for this one may have been the Foul Fowl....

[solemn dock]

That project reminds me of some similar things I've seen from other makers. Seytonic makes a little usb device that can run scripts read in from text files, and I think his is based off the Rubber Ducky by Hak5

It is a very cool project though, to be sure! 😃

Just think it's interesting how many makers come up with similar things

[haughty quiver]

I hadn't heard of Seytonic, but I definitely was inspired by the Rubber Ducky!

[solemn dock]

Huzzah, just got the SDR working. 😃

[haughty quiver]

Hurray! That was fast.

What OS and software?

[solemn dock]

Linux and using Gqrx. Needed to add a udev rule to give my user permissions, but after that it was a cakewalk

[haughty quiver]

excellent.

have fun loosing yourself in tuning in odd stuff all night :)

[inner spade]

I'm using Sharp's latest RTL-SDR v1.0.0.1660 on Win 10 -- works like a charm!

[solemn dock]

If I get this to the right frequency, to I get to pick up radio signals from the past/future? 😉

[haughty quiver]

Yes, but it's tricky and requires just the right antenna. @inner spade can help with that.

[inner spade]

Ha! Haven't found the future yet, but I hear the past in my head all the time!

[waxen thistle]

@solemn dock Only if you go 88mph in a Delorean powered with a Mr. Fusion.

[solemn dock]

Is the California license plate required for the Delorean, or will any state due?

I am now learning that radio reception in my house isn't all that great. 😦

[haughty quiver]

I believe one per state is allowed.

[waxen thistle]

I claim the "state of confusion".

[solemn dock]

Does Adafruit have a more powerful antenna that would work with this connector? I think I need a bigger one.

[inner spade]

I'm planning to build something like this, @solemn dock : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discone_antenna

[solemn dock]

Nifty...

[inner spade]

It'll be somewhat smaller than recommended, but should work much better than the supplied whip antenna.

[haughty quiver]

I would imagine!

[inner spade]

The whip is okay above 700MHz or so, though. Especially if there's a ground plane underneath. The magnet on the whip's base makes it easy to find something metallic. 😉

[solemn dock]

The linux udev line, in case anyone would like it: SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTR{idProduct}=="2838", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0bda", MODE="0666"

[waxen thistle]

Beware -- at least for me -- the LED and transistor were loose in the big ziplock bag with all the other bags/boxes of components. I dumped them out onto the desk -- and if you blinked, you'd have missed the LED traveling at the speed of light 😃

technical assistance

That's okay

They just gave encougegment

[inner spade]

@vernal mulch : @covert stag and I made some good progress on the project, but it still needs help from someone who has experience with the NeoPixelMatrix library to get the scrolling to work properly. I encouraged her to show progress and reach out for some help to be able to move forward.

... now I can go back in listening mode...

not everyone types 200wpm

I type at just 100 wpm. I use the backspace key at 250wpm, though.
