Is there a way to get these code snippets after the show?

[teal river]

Xeon, relic :P

[shell mason]

https://tenor.com/view/ghostbusters-dont-cross-the-streams-shoot-gif-15786226

[teal river]

You should do a workshop and build a Linux streaming box :O

[grand tusk]

This is a great plan, I'm happy to be a part of it.

[spiral vale]

Limor Connector?

[brazen quail]

Intel/AMD giveth, OS's taketh away.

[vivid ore]

TE, you're thinking of

Amphenol MIL-spec circular connectors that cost anywhere from $30-250 a piece

[shell mason]

Lars Connector?

[teal river]

It has teeth

DIN keyboard!

JP, do you know what the sleeving is on those Blinka Purple USB cables?

[lavish patrol]

Lars - spotted.

[brazen quail]

How much current are they rated for ? Maybe good fit for neopixel strips in marine applications.

[teal river]

I'd call these quick release keyed connectors

I had to yell at the LTT folks for saying "color order doesn't matter" because it can lead to issues later down the line if you need to replace the connector and don't know how it was wired

Like... CAT cable, you can do any order, but it's easier to just stay standard

[cinder wind]

from the diagram on the product page, 3.5A

https://www.adafruit.com/product/5144

[spiral vale]

get that man a sharper pencil!

[cinder wind]

can't have sharps around Lars

[teal river]

Some connectors show pin numbers on the plastic inside

[brazen quail]

Characteristic impedance from network analyzer ?

[vivid ore]

Paracord? It's basically a braided rope that you can kinda squish open to feed cables through. They're not as durable or easy to work with compared to PET sleeving, but they are more flexible and accessible. https://www.michaels.com/jewelry-cording/paracord/809188214

[grand tusk]

Can we call it the ParkBench?

[teal river]

I mean specific color, I assume it to be paracord as well

I want to make my own Blinka Purple cables XD

[vivid ore]

Oh, braided pink and purple. https://www.adafruit.com/product/4111

[teal river]

Yeah, that

[vivid ore]

NO idea where from.

[teal river]

That's why I was asking JP :P

JP knows a great many things

[lavish patrol]

JP is all-knowing. 😀

[teal river]

JP, Knower of Things

Thicccc conductors

[cinder wind]

there's a bunch of interesting cables to be found in the "cables" section of the /r/MechanicalKeyboard wiki: https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/wiki/keyboard_cables

wow these are amazing https://mechcables.com/

[inner spade]

My favorite multi-conductor cable outer jacket removal technique: https://learn.adafruit.com/motion-activated-solder-fume-extractor-with-lamp/wire-and-solder

[teal river]

Whoa, some wild colors in there!

I use a razor blade most of the time for stripping cables... Or my tweezers

[lavish patrol]

Lol. My eyesight is shot. 🙁

[teal river]

JP, you need a split mirror to feed a camera into your microscope so you can see

There was a little audio buzz at one point, but audio is in sync

[brazen quail]

Some prefer tinning the cup first, before adding the wire.

[teal river]

I tin everything

[brazen quail]

A little heat shrink tubing instead of Kapton tape is my preference. Maybe not enough room for this option ?

[teal river]

JP, do you know where the Blinka pink/purple paracord came from?

Darn, I missed him XD

[inner spade]

The audio/video quality improved when Lars was visible in the frame. Hmmm.

"Trim a little off the top, please."

Nice barbering skills.

[teal river]

Lars is jealous and interfering when not in frame

[lavish patrol]

Maybe Lars has a direct link to Starlink...

[eager matrix]

Hi John and hi everyone.

[lavish patrol]

Lars/Starlink. Also known as SkyNet. 😶

[inner spade]

@haughty quiver Can the cable's outer fabric braid be melted to reduce fraying?

[teal river]

Scalpel...

[teal river]

[lavish patrol]

[teal river]

[cinder wind]

ooo this looks like a cheaper solution than the previous site I linked: https://zapcables.com/diy-usb-cable-kit/

[teal river]

Cheap good

[eager matrix]

"You gotta really want to do this" is kinda funny. If you screw things up, you just try again until you get it right.

[teal river]

So long as you don't run out of cable XD

"Well, I tried making a 12" cable, but it's only 3" long..."

[lavish patrol]

This is a lot more fiddle that making Cat5 cables.

[cinder wind]

it's part of the charm

[lavish patrol]

"Charm" 😄

[teal river]

You can do this in 5 minutes if you're living on the edge

One time I had to make up 2 dozen XLR cables in under 2 hours DX

@haughty quiver Do you know where the Blinka pink and purple paracord came from? I want to make my own Blinka cables

begins the long search for Blinka pink and purple paracord

Bai JP! Good show!

[viral sail]

Thanks @haughty quiver

[lavish patrol]

Good show @haughty quiver 😀

[modern night]

This was really great! Thank you!

[eager matrix]

The internet thanks you back.

[waxen bough]

Late comment: I liked the trick of layering heat-shrink to increase cable diameter for crimping!

[haughty quiver]

@waxen bough excellent! I'm doing some more of them right now, it's a nice way to get it just so :)

[sudden slate]

I noticed the name of this channel was changed from #livebroadcast to #live-broadcast-chat

Or something like #livebroadcast

[teal river]

What was it before? o.o

[sudden slate]

[nova totem]

Long weekend time

[eager matrix]

Hi Scott. I hope all is great!

[fallow fractal]

Hellooo

[viscid bolt]

Good afternoon

[teal river]

I wish long weekend meant video games, but I have too much to do DX

[nova totem]

Eat and play video games, that's two things

[modern night]

howdy all!

[balmy tinsel]

Hi all!

[teal river]

Cat day

[modern night]

RC.1 Party!

[nova totem]

Been playing Valheim a bunch lately

[teal river]

Your chin isn't out of frame, camera is high enough XD

I miss games

[timid plover]

fine for me ( mike is )

[teal river]

https://adafru.it/Discord

Kitty!

[timid plover]

trouble loading twitch ( might be on my side > )

[teal river]

YouTube fine for me

[timid plover]

reload twitch seems to be starting ( after the ad )

[teal river]

You and camera looks equally focused to me I think?

Both are ever so slight fuzz because 1080p on 4K, lol

4K Scott!

Oop

Make sure you don't sneeze on the camera!

[upper sandal]

speaking of RC, there's 4 boards added in the last couple of days that don't have board.board_id I propose to PR that after (or before ?) the Lolin S2 Mini fix is merged maybe (and add __name__ while I'm there)

[teal river]

Can you control board frequency within CP?

I want CPU frequency XD it would be good for power management

[simple fractal]

i usually take an existing board to check what i'm missing, sometimes i pick the wrong one

[teal river]

"Thunder" name?

[simple fractal]

dunder

__

[teal river]

Hmm'

[timid plover]

__ is double underscore

[teal river]

Ahh

[upper sandal]

it's named after Crocodile Dunder

oh wait

[teal river]

lol

[shell mason]

Thor Thunder

[simple fractal]

when i hear that i think Dunder Mifflin

[teal river]

https://tenor.com/view/it-all-make-sense-know-all-clear-all-is-set-understood-corridor-digital-gif-15439566

[modern night]

I never realized dunder was short for 'double underscore', I just thought Dunder was a thing inandof itself

[simple fractal]

or maybe the office got it from python

[teal river]

Imagine proof reading yourself XD I forget to do that

[shell mason]

https://tenor.com/view/real-thor-gif-18190013

[teal river]

lol

[sudden gate]

Hay All

[upper sandal]

is there documentation on how to add a board that could be updated on github or is it only in the learn guides ?

[teal river]

So looking at this eInk display https://www.adafruit.com/product/4197 I don't see anything about partial updates -- is that a limitation of the display/controller, or CP?

[simple fractal]

i never add the photos, probably should. But as the boards i add aren't mine I don't have great photos

or camera

[teal river]

Ahh... I thought partial updates were faster... although I guess it doesn't make a difference if it has to do the back and forth the same number of times/duration for "10 pixels" or the whole display

Yay Mark!

[upper sandal]

partial updates make it look kind of dirty too honestly

[teal river]

Oh, wait, it's power saving, right?

[nova totem]

welcome, glad to help out

[upper sandal]

at least the implementations I have seen

[teal river]

I know I wanted to do it for a reason XD

I think it saves power to do partial...

[timid plover]

was this the latest recommended power analyzer?
https://www.adafruit.com/product/5048

[teal river]

Yeah

Ok, so... a few sites say partial updates do save power, but no info on how much

Need to figure out if my display can even do it then XD and get that Power Profiler...

So it'll take the things that take 2 extra and don't need a 4K boundary and rearrange them so you have less fills?

[modern night]

That's such a better way of saying what I was typing 😅

[teal river]

lol

[upper sandal]

oh yeah don't take RAM off the samd21, there's already not enough 😉

[teal river]

RIP RAM

[shell mason]

Doctor RAM

[timid plover]

Pro-TIP - worth the price of admission - thanks!

[modern night]

It's really good to know though--especially for those 'I need an edge case optimization'. I'm really curious to see if it'd help with compression/decompression for the error strings

[teal river]

Tired Scott:

https://tenor.com/view/adventure-time-bmo-check-please-check-gif-4709416

Yay nomenclature updates!

[timid plover]

https://github.com/micropython/micropython/releases/v1.17

[modern night]

I was curious about that!

I have made no headway with the board's uart

[timid plover]

I'd vote for github actions - then Pi

[smoky island]

I would vote for actions, I am not super familiar with it, always interested in learning more.

[modern night]

Let's do the actions since it would be a nice 'around the start of 7.0' kind of things

[upper sandal]

let's get to the action !

[eager matrix]

Thanks Scott I gotta run. First Friday is Art Under the Stars. Can't miss that.

[modern night]

(just for anyone else curious to scroll through the docs) https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/events-that-trigger-workflows

[timid plover]

ah - clearly stating the requirements 🙂

[modern night]

"Would you like to give my wife a congratulatory hand touch"

[shell mason]

[modern night]

Sincerely-- reading the docs is super relaxing and interesting

[upper sandal]

and a lost art

[timid plover]

the way we learn ( reading the docs ) changes over time - finding the right documentation is key

[modern night]

I feel like it's less of a lost art, and more of a, more and more people are learning python and electronics, so there are more and more folks learning about the docs than there use to be. Which is pretty awesome in my opinion

[timid plover]

does github optimize all the parallel checkouts - or does each job need to detect if it needs to be done (e.g. changes in this board/cpu type )

[teal river]

Deep dive into nap time next?

[upper sandal]

it seems complicated to do as a "this path has changed" thing, we want a job to run if anything in ports/port/ has been modified but not in ports/port/boards/*/ that is not this board

[timid plover]

would the container or something like that allow memory of the checkout(s)

[teal river]

https://tenor.com/view/the-matrix-matrix-coding-code-the-matrix-has-you-gif-17795253

[timid plover]

how does an action know the prevous outputs (to help decide if rebuild is in order )

back in the 'old' "make" days, we used dependencies on the outputs to decide if we needed to rebuild something - what is the equivalent github actions model?

do you need to look at the previous build artifacts?

[upper sandal]

I knew Jason was in the Matrix !

every time I see the fish console I wish it had a windows version

I just re-checked now and it didn't seem to have one :/

[simple fractal]

starship

i have used that. but tbh mostly use wsl2 now and fish

https://starship.rs/

[upper sandal]

I'm using starship in bash right now

[timid plover]

https://fishshell.com/ mentions shell for Cygwin, WSL, and MSYS2

[teal river]

What's Fish console do?

ah

[simple fractal]

suppresses his comedic reply

[balmy tinsel]

Having not used it myself I would also add it just looks nicer than most consoles

[teal river]

I want fish and chips...

[timid plover]

[teal river]

lol

Thinking hard

[balmy tinsel]

Seems like they actually do have Windows supported! Guess I should read the docs a bit more carefully.

[teal river]

https://tenor.com/view/hungry-so-gif-13100938

[simple fractal]

not a fan of cygwin/msys2 as i have had so many issues in the past. but thats me

[timid plover]

"takes a while" - that's why I asked about ways to re-use the previous checkouts

[timid plover]

I use cygwin every day!

[balmy tinsel]

That's to bad, I didn't encounter any issues when I was using it to build binaries for qmk but I wasn't needing it to do anything very advanced.

[simple fractal]

i'm trying to remember how i built qmk

under wsl2 i think. i tend to use that where i can.

[timid plover]

I had some pdf tools that didn't work under cygwin - but had success in wsl2

@rapid hornet - I think the diversion ( cygwin, wsl, MSYS2 ) is our earlier conversation looking for a windows fish shell 🙂

[timid plover]

"super large" things are not appropriate for environment variables, right?

does fish support the bash <( redirect process output to stdin of supbrocess as a file name )
though I don't thing that would pass through the github actions - since there's no fish there -

will the list be large enought that one needs a database or file to store the list of changed files?

excellent fall back!

[modern night]

That makes sense

in the long run that's the most common kind of changes a lot of those files will see, and if it's not that then most of them will need to be rebuilt anyway

[timid plover]

Oh - the "-u" to python means:
-u Force the stdout and stderr streams to be unbuffered. This option has no effect on the stdin stream.
( had to look it up )

[upper sandal]

does fish support the ><(((°> operator ?

[teal river]

I need to go for my walk XD

[timid plover]

your audio pseudo code sounds like a good plan

[teal river]

Good show!

[simple fractal]

Yes, will be a nice improvement.

[modern night]

[marble carbon]

Just added board_id to the Lolin S2 Mini pin assignment fixup PR. How to add __name__?

[upper sandal]

this PR changes it to just adding CIRCUITPYTHON_BOARD_DICT_STANDARD_ITEMS https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/pull/5299/files

[marble carbon]

ah, okay, I see the lolin_s2_mini in your PR. Hopefully won't collide with board_id that I added at the top of pins.c. Some CI magic to only build for change-affected boards would be nice. 😉

[rapid hornet]

working on it 🙂

[upper sandal]

it will collide, which is fine, I can rebase, or you can, whichever is merged first

[marble carbon]

sure thing, I'll keep my eyes on it

[upper sandal]

and then a million CI will run in terror and be silenced forever... or something

[marble carbon]

haha yes, something fun (or terrifying) about setting off a CI avalanche at a single git push .

[smoky island]

Just about to start up the stream. I'm working on a digital Etch-A-Sketch project today. Hang out here in the chat and follow along on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/foamyguy_twitch or Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2UMXrdnYlU

holy cow that's really nice!

[grand tusk]

It's the 'logo' programming language that first implemented turtle graphics.

Maybe add an 'angle' column?

[modern night]

is south 1 character too far to the right?

Whoop That looks good!

[grand tusk]

LGTM!

[modern night]

You could make a "polar coordinate" etch and sketch mode

It's less of a useful idea, more of a purposefully weird one

radian/angle and distance from origin I think. It's been a hot minute since I've used them though

[grand tusk]

How about a Spirograph?

[modern night]

should you initialize some "I'm in the menu now" values to make it easier to know to ignore the release?

I think it is like that--I'm just mentally running through my debug list--one of them is, "If I enter a state, are there values I need to set right away"

hot dog nice!

[modern night]

Nice! That's satisfying!

[grand tusk]

I used the dpad

Instead of rotary encoders

Yeah, used the turtle.

Thanks @smoky island .

[modern night]

Thanks for this! It was really neat to watch!

[grand tusk]

It's a cool project, hope the case turns out good.

[lilac tusk]

[robust horizon]

next thing I'll find out she's here on discord

[lilac tusk]

Maybe she’s an undercover hacker

[robust horizon]

could be, she doesn't often show me what she's working on. (but usually it's papercraft)

[lilac tusk]

Ohhh neat! Paper craft is hard so that’s really awesome

[drifting wyvern]

Nice to see some routing tonight

[lilac tusk]

I always get weird little air wires even if there is a connection

[robust horizon]

why is the angle DRC important?

[drifting wyvern]

Gotta route 'em all!

[lilac tusk]

Don’t want them right angles 🙂

(More to prevent manufacturing defects than signal)

[drifting wyvern]

Sniffles, ragweed season in NYC too?

[robust horizon]

a multiple of 45 degrees is more manufacturable?

my seasonal allergies calmed down when I came east from nebraska, but who knows

[lilac tusk]

I was told that right angles can get pulled up during solder mask application

[drifting wyvern]

Ragweed season never ends in Iowa due to agriculture practices. It was suffering.

[lilac tusk]

I had to do a great search for a supervisor chip the other day

Dmg3412 has been one I’ve fought to find a good replacement for

There was a dfn version I found but it is out of stock haha

[spiral bough]

I feel mildly competent in Eagle, for hobbyist use, but I see a lot of interesting designs made in KiCad, is there a good way to load up KiCad projects in Eagle? I mostly just want to switch some components/re-skin boards for OshPark After Dark.

[drifting wyvern]

No idea but import from eagle into KiCAD works great 😁

[spiral bough]

I know it seems simple, but when I try to tinker in KiCad I just feel like I don't know how to do anything and get frustrated.

[lilac tusk]

You should do a supervisor IC replacement next time

[drifting wyvern]

That was a nice Great Search, MOSFET specs always seem so complicated

Thanks for doing us a solid, Ladyada and pt!

[spiral bough]

Thanks!

[drifting wyvern]

Have a good week!

[waxen bough]

Feather+PropMaker == Adabox020?

[cinder wind]

RP2040 MP3 playback (via PWM) does work in CircuitPython. @clear matrix just wrote a guide about it https://learn.adafruit.com/mp3-playback-rp2040/pico-mp3

[clear matrix]

Not exactly.

[clear matrix]

I did write that guide!

[teal river]

Cute things making evil sounds is better than Lars making sound XD

[fading meadow]

lots of info here https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-feather/overview

Working on a bug in I2S wav/tone audio, but MP3 playback via I2S on RP2040 also works.

[teal river]

Kattni da real MVP

[clear matrix]

What Jerry said. re: the Feathers.

But there's not necessarily a chart. So much info to keep up with, it would be out of date and frustrating quite quickly. So we avoid comparison charts overall.

[ebon stratus]

@fading meadow thank you. will check out

@clear matrix yeah I sort of was hoping for a chart. Maybe I need to make one? LOL

Order in progress!

I hope I have enough coinbits

Super Scissors? Must look into that.

[teal river]

Yissss I have enough coinbits

[clear matrix]

I mean, they're scissors. But they're fancy scissors. But I use them for everything now.

[teal river]

Ugh, c'mon app!

[waxen bough]

Those Super Scissors look great. Added to my cart for my next order. However, I don't need today's special...

[teal river]

Ok, so apparently I was just barely short on BTC... Will my order stay in my cart while I wait for it to transfer more back to my wallet? DX

Or how do I go back and pay a different way?

Mild panic time X.x

@open girder I hate to ping for this, but I only have about 3 minutes left -- I had picked the crypto pay option, but I was slightly short on my wallet, is there a way to change to a different method?

[open girder]

@teal river email [e-mail] and that team will advise ya on what is possible -pt

[teal river]

Ok, waiting on a reply... panic DX I hope it can be fixed

Ok, that got voided and I was able to reorder with PayPal, yay!

Just a thought in the Eye if Agamotto. What if you used computer vision to analyze hand gestures to activate servos that opened the amulet

[woeful pond]

Thank you guys for the show

[midnight plinth]

😋 Thank you I will look at them. How important is "autoleveling"

[urban gale]

My first printer had an autolevel program. It was pretty decent but still required post-tuning my new one (FF Creator Pro 2) does not but I'm now experienced enough to not need it

tldr: it depends on your newness to 3D printing imo

[woeful pond]

@midnight plinth I've had a few non-autoleveling 3D printers. It can be a little time-consuming. I now have printers that is auto-leveling and I think its the best thing ever. Especially since a level bed is key in 3D printing

[upbeat coral]

@midnight plinth I have a Ender 3 Pro. I found best was to have a Glass bed and strong bed springs. I level with all at temperature and use a steel "Feeler Gage"

[lilac tusk]

@open girder Jeff's voice has a bit of a tight reverb, slightly robotic -- might be getting picked up by multiple mics with a super slight delay?

@teal river While waiting for AAE we were talking about an ESP32S2 board for random sensors last week. Started playing about in kicad, any features you had thought of you'd want on a board like that?

[teal river]

Like, sensors to add on, or to make attachable?

[nova totem]

Well you'd mentioned temperature ones, I was thinking just Stemma QT... but any other features, like the funhouse... like is it worth having a few status LEDs, speaker/buzzer, etc.

[teal river]

Hmmm... Status indicators are great to have, even if they're simple. How big of a board is this likely to be? FunHouse size?

[alpine radish]

Hey @open girder TeachMePCB.com is about to open up another free course on PCB design in the beginning of October. You can check out the content from the first course using guest code "RCS" If you think it's valuable, I'd be happy to share it next week or the week after. Last year we had 600 students and engineers sign up. And our sponsors built the boards, bought the parts, and shipped assembled boards to everyone who completed the course. All for free. This year we're not going to assemble the boards since that was a huge pain point last time. But we still plan to make the boards and ship 'em out.

Question: The new Ultimate GPS Module https://www.adafruit.com/product/5186 is the PA1616D, but links to a PA1010D guide...

I’ve been reading @waxen thistle ‘s name wrong this whole time

My brain was reading it as Mr Certainty 😬

[waxen thistle]

You're not the first person who's told me that, so don't feel bad.

It's not a very.....marketable name I suppose.

[lilac tusk]

Maybe

For the longest time I went by the name UBRz

It was named after the first company i every tried to start

only question that i thought was hard was do i like kirk or do i like picard?

[teal river]

Hey! Enterprise isn't garbage!

[lethal lagoon]

ooh I gotta say I am enjoying Picard too, and looking forward to next season whenever it happens

[teal river]

I generally like Picard, but there are some owerghoaeiwrgh things

[haughty quiver]

just catching up, @open girder you can run open -n on mac terminal to launch multiple instances of the same app. I do it a bunch.

[waxen thistle]

❤️ Garak.

DS9 is probably some of the best writing in Trek

[lilac tusk]

Definitely owerghoaeiwrgh things

[lethal lagoon]

I kind of fell off of Discovery but I was loving their costumes and character design for sure

[smoky island]

Personally I would suggest BLE instead of WiFi because it can be a bit simpler. There is a Bluefruit LE Connect app for iOS and Android: https://learn.adafruit.com/bluefruit-le-connect you can use this app to communicate with any of the nrf52840 based devices.

[woven mirage]

I’m just a simple tailor

[waxen thistle]

https://www.adabox.com

[autumn fulcrum]

I enjoyed season 1.

but I'm focusing on Discovery.

[deft lark]

So I can just use a feather board and some way to power it nothing else needed?

[teal river]

"They didn't always make a home run". Remember the time they tried a racism story with people that were literally half white and half black down the middle, but one race was white on left and black on the right, other race was vice versa?

RIP Perma-Proto Board

[waxen thistle]

https://www.adafruitdaily.com

[lilac tusk]

Many perf boards were harmed in the making of this video

[smoky island]

yes, as long as it's one of the nrf52840 based feathers. https://www.adafruit.com/product/4062 or https://www.adafruit.com/product/4516 No other hardware is necessary for the BLE communication. If you want buttons or any other IO devices to hook up you'll need those, but their not strictly needed for the BLE.

[teal river]

They're usually bonded to a layer inside of the board, so not likely to fall out

[teal river]

Lol, true

It’s not easy lol..

[coarse leaf]

I doubt it would be easy

[teal river]

I want to make an Eye of Agamotto that opens and closes and senses when you make the motion

[lilac tusk]

Use computer vision so you have to do the hand motions and spells

On Semi!

I just found a great article from on semi this week on EMI filter design

[alpine radish]

@open girder Do you have any new information on the silicon shortage? Stuff is getting scarce.

[fallow fractal]

capital letters are so inefficient

[teal river]

well, that would would work if you were doing it in one room... But you probably could use 9-DOF sensors to track motion

I'd probably hook it up 3-4 times before i learned my lesson

Mistakes were made, fuses were blown.

Question—- being an engineer what kind of things would you look for after a electronic item came into contact with a liquid — I had an unfortunate accident with a bottle of sanitizer dripping quite a bit on the electric side of the Pyportal.. any tips ? How will I deem it safe to continue to use unsupervised., any risk ?

[shell mason]

I want them mounted on the backs of some fingerless gloves for some kind of rad cyberpunk UI.

[echo canopy]

Question— any thoughts on making rhapsody scroll wheel on a breakout and have it I2C— giving feedback I’d pay the extra

[haughty quiver]

When I see something that Limor says isn't visible to humans...

[lilac tusk]

Robot?

[teal river]

Question: Does the mask being controlled by an Arduino mean that it doesn't have an MCU onboard?

[chilly kettle]

oooh reminds me of the daft punk helmet.

[noble grove]

QUESTION: The datasheet for the scroll wheel shows 24 detents but only 12 cycles. Does the rotaryio library handle this half cycle per step?

[rancid depot]

Q: Is there a way to protect code in CircuitPython where someone cannot copy the code from a commercial product that runs CP? I was thinking of getting rid of the USB connector and having some test points to program the board one time. Not 100% foolproof, but its something. Any other ways? Thanks.

[shell mason]

I think you can disable the usb storage from being shown to the computer

[teal river]

Question: The new Ultimate GPS Module https://www.adafruit.com/product/5186 is the PA1616D, but links to a PA1010D guide... I tried following that guide using the PA1616D's datasheet for pins -- is that guide actually compatible? I couldn't get it to show as an I2C device; plus the datasheet says I2C "With custom firmware"

[inner spade]

Question: Any possibility of stocking panel mount YC-8 compatible connectors?

[junior hornet]

​what was shown just a couple of minutes ago - oled + backlit buttons and a rotator knob?

[coarse leaf]

However even if you do they can still access the REPL where they could write some code to dump the main code file over serial

[teal river]

Question: Will a Feather turn off if an attached LiPo hits too low a voltage, or will it drain the cell to dangerous levels if you don't disconnect it?

[haughty quiver]

maybe this https://www.adafruit.com/product/5128

[junior hornet]

that's it; thanks

[echo canopy]

Sorry didn’t catch the “rhapsody “ in my question “ it was an “auto correct” 🥴

[teal river]

To the forums!

[coarse leaf]

@rancid depot So you might want to disable the main serial repl, if you do need serial out use the secondary serial instead

[nova totem]

Do most the boards that use USB-C just use USB 2.0?

[upper sandal]

(in Quantum Leap it's called a handlink)

[teal river]

Apparently the RP2040 is USB 1.1!

[lilac tusk]

VGS should drop below the differential

[upper sandal]

(yes I listen to the Quantum Leap Podcast)

[teal river]

VGS?

[lilac tusk]

Gate to source voltage

[alpine nova]

is that rotary encoder like a video scrubber?

[rancid depot]

Thanks! Yea, just disabling the REPL should be good enough. Totally understand nothing is fool proof.

[nova totem]

I really want to get to NYC again soon, I was supposed to go April 2020...

[teal river]

I was lied to

[coarse leaf]

All good, that should stop anyone from getting in without either gaining access to the bootloader or opening the device and dumping direct from the flash chip

[teal river]

I haven't been to NYC since like 2017

The Bitcoin price charts XD

[prisma heath]

I threw in 0.5k and that's now 20k with the prices crashed. I'm not complaining lmao. Oh, yeah, it used to be 40k. So I can look at it two ways. I earned 20k or I lost 20k.

I just checked again, it's still 20k. I wonder at what point in my life I started forgetting about my finances.
