I recommend saving the .png of the game to a shared drive/server.

#

it's the floppy icon at the bottom.

#

it seems to be the simplest way to do "version control" at the moment.

#

just seems to save easier vs. the .uf2 which may try to save as WebUSB download instead.

You Win!

slow spire
#

@ripe blade Does it help avoid noise in the ECG signal?

ripe blade
#

@slow spire it doesn’t completely avoid noise (noise in the ECG comes from a number of things), but since you isolate 60Hz a bit it does end up being relatively cleaner than normal as a result.

lavish patrol
#

Hmmm. I've got an old Garmin hiding somewhere...

ripe blade
#

Without the isolator, I’ll usually hook up my ECG circuit directly to my Arduino that’s plugged into my computer via USB. With the isolator, the ECG circuit is solely powered by a separate battery and is isolated from the USB.

Question for @open girder: How the I2C and SPI Excamera devices deal with 5V vs 3.3V logic breakouts?

I kinda wonder: how many man hours are spent scraping the dross from the vats of molten solder? Would something like wine preserver work?

The selective soldering machine has to dispense onto the board contacts, than reclaim the excess. So there's always some contact with air, and whatever's on the board.

@slow spire hi! to answer your earlier question: i made the diffuser shown in my tweet with my vacuum former so there's a heater in that, but I haven't tried just free-form thermoforming that material with a heat gun or anything like that. i am playing with other shapes and will try to show next week on show and tell 😃

@sage aspen Do any of the 96boards boards use the RPi pinout?

dusty salmon
#

Can one get a 2x20 pogo pin header?

sage aspen
#

As far as I know, no, @slow spire .

#

I think the connector is called a 96boards connector

the hammer headers are the closest i've seen to a 2x20 pogo. but, i haven't exactly searched for one..

The name "hammer headers" has a built-in warning.

haha. indeed!

I tried hammer headers. Once.

@lavish patrol you mean, there are instances of Not Hammer Time? 😮

I have a Metro M4 and RF shield, an airlift shield would give that more options

It's a commodore plus 4 cpu chip.

@lethal lagoon I know, right? For a ship that requires that much repair, you'd think they'd have service spaces that are more accessible....

@dusty salmon They have problems there as well.

If a starship leaves earth with an atomic clock orbits a planet orbiting another star for a year and returns assuming no discrepancy from travel would the atomic clock be out of step with one that stayed on earth?

@dusty salmon Yes, don't even need to go that far, GPS satellite clocks run faster than ones on earth, measurably so: they run fast about 45μs due to GR and 7μs slow due to SR, for a net difference of 38μs faster per day.

@haughty quiver nice shirt again by the way

Cool color coding. It would look cool if the headers were the complementary color to the board, ie yellow headers on a blue board.

#

CGA colors. Love it.

dense marlin
#

Why is Make Code in Blocks and Java Script and not in Python?

lavish patrol
#

Hmmm.

prime sentinel

I don't think children should be subjected to javascript.

Yes, but why is there javascript and not Python.

@dense marlin there is some of the pxt galaxy products with Python added next to javascript. The maker beta edition maybe. But not yet the arcade version

Thanks to Dan H for implementing the consumer control HID

pearl shoal
#

That's where the XAC support lives, @hard hollow

#

XBox Adaptive Controller

#

The reason the media controls are separate is that they are actually a separate USB device to the system. Separate from the Keyboard proper

#

Sorry I was unclear

waxen thistle
#

Getting some static in the audio -- anyone else hearing that?

pearl shoal
#

Nice transparency: do you keep the layers going the same layer?

#

Yes, I hear it

#

And it's growing

upbeat coral
#

Yea, seems to be increasing

Both Facebook & YouTube

@rocky reef @hard hollow Static in the audio --- and it's been increasing 😦

Sounds like a rainstorm. Unless it actually is raining 😛

Yeah, it's getting unusable

#

Don't touch anything

#

its the mixer @pearl shoal

pearl shoal
#

Before the static I asked, "Nice transparency: do you keep the layers going the same layer?"

#

I'm telling you, ditch the lapel mics and just get a single Blue Systems mic. You'll have echo, but it will "just work". At least as a backup.

#

When you're up for taking requests, I'd love stacking headers in your library 😃
