| 00:00.13 | NAiL | ok |
| 00:00.27 | NAiL | Don't expect soft-raid to give much performance increase though |
| 00:00.49 | BlueChip | not at all - it'll just be a mirror in case of drive failure |
| 00:00.54 | NAiL | and, running torrents works. But don't expect to run a bunch of them ;) |
| 00:01.39 | BlueChip | So.... what do you guys get up to here if not user-support? |
| 00:01.56 | NAiL | This is the dev channel, as stated in the topic |
| 00:02.01 | BlueChip | I'd love to add a little something as my new "pet-project" |
| 00:02.34 | BlueChip | wondering if you have a todo list or such |
| 00:03.02 | NAiL | Well, not as such I think. There are probably heaps of stuff that need to be fixed |
| 00:03.12 | NAiL | I haven't really done any dev work for a while, so I'm a bit out of touch |
| 00:03.37 | BlueChip | I do embedded stuff for a living AND a hobby [how sad is that? - LOL] |
| 00:03.42 | NAiL | haha |
| 00:03.58 | NAiL | not really sad |
| 00:04.16 | NAiL | until recently, that was what I wanted to do ;) |
| 00:04.23 | BlueChip | I wrote the documenting disassembler for the ESS video ROMs :D <looks chuffed with self> |
| 00:04.32 | NAiL | ESS? |
| 00:04.51 | BlueChip | There are two main competing DVD cores: MediaTek and ESS |
| 00:04.57 | NAiL | aah |
| 00:05.12 | NAiL | sounds like pretty hard-core stuff then :) |
| 00:05.26 | BlueChip | I love it :) |
| 00:05.38 | BlueChip | so much easier when there is no OS between you and the hardware |
| 00:05.54 | NAiL | heh, that depends on your level of knowledge ;) |
| 00:06.06 | BlueChip | all you need is the datasheets and you're away |
| 00:06.16 | NAiL | Assembler was fun. |
| 00:06.23 | NAiL | I remember doing that back in my DOS days |
| 00:06.34 | BlueChip | beyond that it's little more than stuffing values in registers (albeit over such as and i2c bus) |
| 00:06.51 | BlueChip | If you can write ASM you can write ANY language |
| 00:07.03 | BlueChip | C is just macro-assembler really |
| 00:07.30 | NAiL | C is a lot easier to wrap one's mind around |
| 00:07.40 | NAiL | of course, it doesn't require much knowledge of the hardware |
| 00:08.00 | NAiL | "back in the days", it was great fun. I started with ASM on the 386 |
| 00:08.24 | BlueChip | LOL ...I'm not sure I should admit to starting on a 1KB Z80 machine |
| 00:08.24 | NAiL | (because the stuff I wrote in Pascal was way too slow) |
| 00:08.30 | NAiL | haha, why not? |
| 00:08.43 | BlueChip | cos it'll age me terribly ;D |
| 00:09.09 | NAiL | Well, I'm 29 since yesterday |
| 00:09.22 | BlueChip | Happy Brithday |
| 00:09.30 | NAiL | thanks ;) |
| 00:09.44 | BlueChip | I was programming in assembler when you were about 2 - LOL |
| 00:09.55 | NAiL | haha |
| 00:11.26 | BlueChip | LOL |
| 00:12.38 | NAiL | I think the slowest cpu I've programmed for was the 6510 |
| 00:13.04 | BlueChip | the 6502 (65xx) is killer! THREE 8-bit registers :O |
| 00:13.18 | BlueChip | mind you, they seem to be used ALL OVER telecomms systems to this day |
| 00:14.41 | NAiL | heh |
| 00:15.03 | NAiL | I destroyed a friend's 1541 with a few POKEs |
| 00:15.39 | BlueChip | 1541?? |
| 00:15.44 | NAiL | the floppy ;) |
| 00:15.47 | BlueChip | ah |
| 00:15.48 | BlueChip | lol |
| 00:16.09 | NAiL | He still owes me a C64... Gotta remind him of that ;) |
| 00:16.52 | NAiL | Right now I'm focusing a bit more on my car and less on embedded stuff. Working on a logic circuit for a car alarm today ;) |
| 00:20.27 | caplink811-log | in these day tk systems uses modern and fast processors, e.g. xeon, or p4 and free os's like linux |
| 00:21.02 | BlueChip | I'm only going by the logs for my 6502 manual |
| 00:22.48 | caplink811-log | yeah, misread this, english isn't my native language ;) |
| 00:28.04 | BlueChip | well, my time is up ...be lucky guys - probably see you again after I've got mine all hacked and wired up :) |
