@vernal mulch I don't think there are really "official" subreddits, but I've heard whispers of an adafruit person posting there. Only rumors though 🕵

I know streaming happens on platforms other than youtube... is it any better elsewhere?

[waxen thistle]

I lean on Twitch -- it's not the best, but it handles pre-load a lot more gracefully than Youtube live.

I'm glad Adafruit uses UPS. In my locale, FedEx is contracted out to private carriers. Which are notoriously low-quality....leaving a package in the middle of a driveway in the rain, for example. Our UPS carrier is a good friend of the family, we bake him cookies every holiday season. 🍪

There's a theory that when George Renninger of Wunderlee Candy Company created candy corn in the 1880s, they made a giant batch. It also had a unique side effect -- it never became stale or degraded.

But the original batch barely sold.

So each year, the unsold candy corn is recollected and repackaged. Rumor has it, we're still eating the same original batch of 1880's candy corn to this very day.

/spooky story 👻

[tiny plank]

I do like the candy pumpkins which are made from the same stuff!

[haughty quiver]

Does the TensorFlow Lite demo require a Bluefruit CPX? Will it work with the regular CPX? Also, I assume the TFT Gizmo will not fit with cases on?

[glossy flicker]

Question: In the Braincraft video you just showed, it looked like the fps was 4+, but on the Machine Learning Monday demo, it was more like 1.5 fps....what was different between the two setups?

[delicate fractal]

A we years(or worse), or just quarters away from seeing adafruit boards with RISC-V?

[waxen thistle]

CPX + Crickit is one of the best combos -- "batteries included", the "hello world" of robotics.

[slow spire]

@glossy flicker I think the Monday demo recognized more than one object at a time, which slows down frame rate.

[glossy flicker]

now I kind of feel I need to leave my "PJ" there so that this ride off into the weeds makes sense 🙂

great segway into Adafruit's new line of PJ's.. 🙂 if JP does his show in PJ's I'm going to die laughing.

hmmm.. I would totally buy some adafruit PJ's with components all over it. Nerd out!

[prime sentinel]

I would too.

[turbid elbow]

@paper schooner All the reason he should!

[lavish patrol]

Greetings.

Waiting for the bleepage and the bloopage. 🤔

[paper schooner]

Do we have time to get into our PJ's ? 😄

[lavish patrol]

[haughty quiver]

Oops, forgot to change out of jeans into pjs

I wonder who will be speaking for who today. This will be interesting.

[lavish patrol]

I'm wearing a cravat. And a cummerbund.

[inner spade]

I'm wearing a bit of my croissant in my cummerbund.

[lavish patrol]

Should I take off my top hat?

[paper schooner]

I want to see more of using the CPE to detect colors.. that was way cool from last night

[lavish patrol]

Bleeppage!

And Bloopage!

[cinder wind]

beeeps!

[inner spade]

Bleeps are peaking at about -6db. Excellent.

[lavish patrol]

Subdued bleeps.

[inner spade]

voice sound levels a bit low: peaking at about -9db.

[lavish patrol]

I see the dummies have dressed for the occasion.

[inner spade]

levels better, peaking at -5db now. Good to go!

Can someone release the code for the M4 Hallowing that has the eye and blinky leds.. like the product page has?

awesome!

hahaha keep an eye out

[waxen thistle]

That's a nifty eye mechanism indeed.... I might have to check it out.

thanks for sharing @edgy burrow the eyes look so awesome!

A pleasure. Thanks to all you who created such a cool board!

[waxen thistle]

The original eye mechanism from the Target bowl -- do you have any resources/inspiration for making similar types of mechanisms? [as someone with no mechanical engineering background asking 🙂 ]

[slow gyro]

Missed it

[lavish patrol]

@waxen thistle Looks like a gimbal.

Hi! Got my CPX Bluefruit to power a tie that can be controlled from the Adafruit Bluefruit app. Rushed it to show this evening. Would it be OK to demo? All seems to be working well.

[fallow fractal]

I've got a Raspberry Pi build to show, I'd like to share tonight as well

[lavish patrol]

Evening all.

[clear matrix]

@junior niche That would be great to demo! The link to share will be posted here when it's ready to go.

@clear matrix thx. I’m getting the fam dinner but will scamper upstairs when we’re ready. Thanks!

it wuz a bit of a fit

i made them squish it in!!!!

[fickle umbra]

(I still LOVE that tissue paper)

[upbeat coral]

I always HATE tearing the beautiful paper.

[fickle umbra]

@upbeat coral this is why I go for a boxcutter at the sticker.

[upbeat coral]

Hair dryer to soften the glue

Preserve the sticker too

[fickle umbra]

.... or that. Why didn't I think of that...

you will get new tissue with each box 🙂

The MonsterM4SK is one of the nicest designed products I've seen. It's on par with the CircuitPlayground line in terms of "includes everything you need"

Masquerade - paper faces on parade...

[dim wigeon]

@lavish patrol I was just thinking that, and now it's stuck in my head! 😄

[lavish patrol]

@dim wigeon 😉

[waxen thistle]

"Prepare" to take over earth? If one desires to take over Earth, they do not need to "prepare". They merely take.

But what would I know about that... 👽

[tiny plank]

Some have said that aliens are already amongst us...

[lavish patrol]

Are we about to be assimilated? 😜

[glossy flicker]

Korgano!

[dim wigeon]

I think we might have already been. By Blinka. 😄

[lavish patrol]

Masaka is waking.

[dim wigeon]

That ATSAMD51 seems powerful enough to potentially become a node of Skynet, for that matter...

[proper trench]

i love the samd51

sooo powerful

and it overclocks nicely 🙂

there's a lot of math going on with 240x240 x 2 pixels

plus also audio distortion

[dim wigeon]

I think the SAMD51 is more powerful than the first six computers I owned put together.

[proper trench]

i knooow

SE/30 was what like 16 mhz?

[dim wigeon]

I think so.

I started with a Commodore 64, and it boggles my mind.

[lavish patrol]

Lol. Mine was 4.77MHz

[waxen thistle]

120mhz .... looks at the old 8088 sitting in the corner, with the Eagle II sitting on top...

[lavish patrol]

We thought we were the bee's knees when we got a 32MHz 386...

80Mb HDD

[dim wigeon]

I remember taking a tour of the University of Toronto supercomputer (a Cray X-MP, I think) when I was in high school. My iPhone X has more power than it did.

[swift nest]

I have an SE/30 that I found in a dumpster

[waxen thistle]

and look at what we can do with low-power hardware like the RPi and SAMD51.

[lavish patrol]

Gavin Free (One of the Slo Mo guys) just did a video with Linux Tech Tips. Gavin has about half an ExaByte of data to contend with...

[waxen thistle]

And the latest RPi -- it's hard to call that "low-power" anymore, it's a beast.

[lavish patrol]

Aha. The lidless eye...

[tiny plank]

Are we going to get three eyes next year? 👁

[proper trench]

lol

[open girder]

it's like those shavers, we're going to add 3 BLADES

[lavish patrol]

I reckon that would look cool if you could put one of them on the end of a Dalek eye stalk. 😮

[lavish patrol]

@proper trench Looking forward to it.
