15:03.16sorphinCosmicPenguin: careful, you might get sued for saying phoenix ;P
15:03.24CosmicPenguinoh - thats right
15:03.39CosmicPenguinBut apparently, using brand names of existing cars is ok
15:03.45signal11that is a lyric from a rush song.  must be Jeff
15:03.49CosmicPenguinso, lets try this again...
15:04.02signal11Hemispheres #1
15:04.04CosmicPenguinRocinante: like the Ford Pinto form the aches
15:04.15signal11heh
15:04.20sorphinCosmicPenguin: uhh.. the pinto is better off in the ashes ;)
15:04.42CosmicPenguinsorphin: no way man - I want to get a vintage pinto, jack it up, put on mag wheels... it would be a sweet ride
15:04.55signal11CosmicPenguin: a friend of mine had one of those in high school
15:04.57sorphinCosmicPenguin: how bout, like pixil from the ashes (every time greg pissed you off, but you stuck w/ it)
15:04.59sorphin;)
15:05.14signal11it was definitely not a babe magnet of a car
15:05.39CosmicPenguinsignal11: the fumes probably killed more brain cells than any other substance consumed during the high school years
15:07.13RocinanteCosmicPenguin: Gotta luv the pintos!
15:07.26Rocinantesignal11: How goes things?
15:07.55RocinanteInstead of getting the pinto's go all out and get the late 70's Mustang II's
15:08.07RocinanteThey looked identical to the pinto's but had a whopping 84 HP!
15:09.49sorphinheh, my cutlass maxed at 110hp
15:13.10signal11Rocinante: heh didn't some of those have a v-8 though?
15:15.05CosmicPenguinhttp://ssshotaru.homestead.com/files/aolertranslator.html
15:18.25sorphinsignal11: my cutlass was a V8 w/ that 110 hp :P
15:18.40sorphincourse, it was a 260 w/ 2 barrel :P
15:18.56CosmicPenguinbtw - anyone catch the new Mustang on the Today show today?
15:19.51signal11no, how does it look?
15:20.04CosmicPenguinsignal11: the body looks very 1960s
15:20.36CosmicPenguinsignal11: especially the grill - 300 to 400 HP
15:23.54CosmicPenguinsignal11: unfortunately, I can't find any pictures
15:24.36kergothhey
15:26.08CosmicPenguinsignal11: here we go:  http://www.maximum-cars.com/Cars/Car.php?carnumber=420
15:27.18CosmicPenguinsignal11: and here is the convertible (bad picture):  http://products.consumerguide.com/auto/editorial/photos/index.cfm/id/feature11/img/mustang.htm
15:27.20signal11looks cool enough
15:31.15leviI didn't really like the new mustang look when they first unveiled it.  But I didn't like the current look when it first came out either, maybe I'll get used to it.

18:22.32sorphinhmm, ok it's not the jflash, it's the cf updater
18:30.12chouimatsorphin: ?
18:31.02sorphinchouimat: i asked spencer for the sv manual and hte jflash for the Z
18:31.14sorphinhe sent me the manual, and what looks like the source for the CF Updater
18:31.38sorphincuz there's no jflash refernece in the zip file..
18:32.07chouimatsorphin: I don't have that source code :(
18:32.28kergoth`lunchheh
18:32.45sorphinchouimat: you don't get what you don't ask for ;) (tho i didn't ask for this).. gonna email him back, wonder if he doesn't know what i meant by the jflash?
18:33.12kergoth`lunchprobably didnt know what you meant
18:33.19chouimatsorphin: I asked for the info I needed to be able todo a netbsd port
18:33.21kergoth`lunchspencer's a marketing guy, not a techie
18:33.28sorphinkergoth`lunch: tho i'm not complaining if this IS the cf update code ;)
18:33.29kergoth`lunchchouimat: you have it.. in japanese..
18:33.31kergoth`lunchchouimat: :)
18:33.56chouimatkergoth`lunch: but I will probably need to modify the cf  adapter too :)
18:33.59sorphinkergoth`lunch: the more i look at this
18:34.06sorphinit's definately the cf update code
18:37.39sorphinkergoth`lunch: any suggestion on how i should better describe it to him? (i.e. paste the banner of what it's output would look like, or ?)
18:39.51chouimatsorphin: just tell him to look at the page of the svc manual where they talk about the  jtag stuff

21:27.58CosmicPenguinhmm...  stupid airplane, get dave on IRC faster
21:28.14sorphinhehe
21:28.54CosmicPenguinsorphin: let me me ask you a hypothetical
21:29.03sorphinok?
21:29.19CosmicPenguinSay you've got a list of questions on a program, and you need to keep track of if they have been answered or not
21:29.29sorphinok..
21:29.37CosmicPenguinBut you also want to provide defaults for things like numbers, dates and times
21:30.12CosmicPenguinHow can I determine if the user answered those questions, or if they just accepted the defaults
21:30.26CosmicPenguinis there a way to make the user enter a value, but still have the defaults in play?
21:31.26sorphinyeah, just flag if there's anything other than null for an 'answer' and if null, assume default
21:31.34sorphinthat's how i'd do it
21:31.36CosmicPenguinSo get rid of the defaults then
21:32.26sorphini'd point out there is a default and what it is
21:32.43sorphinfor por
21:32.58CosmicPenguinThe biggest problem is that we don't allow keyboard entry of any kind
21:33.04sorphinPoint of Reference
21:33.13sorphinhmm
21:33.19CosmicPenguinso to increment and decrement a number, you have to use buttons
21:33.29sorphinah
21:33.50CosmicPenguinSo if the question asks for a guys blood pressure, you want to start them off at a decent number, otherwise they'll have to arrow up from 0
21:33.58sorphinyeah
21:34.11CosmicPenguinWhich they'll always have todo, because if your blood pressure is 0, you're probably not going to make your dinnerdate
21:34.18sorphinhehe
21:34.39sorphinyou could just pick a default of whatever a mid range healthy BP is
21:35.12CosmicPenguinWhich is what we do - but now I'm having trouble trying to figure out if they actually selected that value, or if it happened to be the default
21:35.35sorphinhmm
21:35.40sorphingood point
21:36.02sorphinlemme ponder that one on the way home
21:36.06sorphinbbl

22:00.56signal11i got the m9000
22:01.13CosmicPenguinSo did I - with the mini ITX tower case
22:01.13signal11and a tiny 12 volt case
22:01.50signal11i just want an XDM client, and maybe to play with the mpeg stuff if they ever get it working
22:01.55CosmicPenguinAnd I've got a CF->IDE adapter here thats not doing anything.
22:02.16CosmicPenguinsignal11: I don't think that the MPEG stuff will ever be open source
22:02.32CosmicPenguinsignal11: hell, I've got an NDA with them, and they won't let me even think about getting the stuff
22:02.47CosmicPenguinSpeaking of which
22:02.49signal11maybe i'll run freevo on it
22:13.11mallumkergoth: hi there mr, did you commit that xfree fix ;-) ?
22:14.36signal11CosmicPenguin: does the epia support disk on chip or any kind of fast booting?
22:14.59signal11well i imagine it would have some kind of super fast post

22:21.08kergothmallum: yeah. the other end of a bk send.

23:28.37sorphinGPSFan: next step if i win it will be to snag some probes
23:28.45sorphinGPSFan: what they run about?
23:37.20GPSFansorphin: probes from tek are $$ there are some cheaper alternates, the probes will determine measurement bandwidth, up to the 25oMHz max of the scope, however with an analog scope, you will be able to see stuff much higher, without the aliasing effects of a digital scope.
23:38.06GPSFanI haven't bought probes in a long time, let me poke around a bit...
23:38.14sorphinok
23:38.19sorphini appreciate it
23:38.37sorphinif i don't win this, there are some other 465's and i think another 75
23:43.01GPSFansorphin: these porbes are Pamona, which isn't bad for an inexpensive probe. I got some of the 100MHz models about 5-6 years ago, they were ok.
