[02:46:40] <Emil> Lambda_Aurigae: doesnt it say bsc?
[03:59:29] <carabia> Lambda_Aurigae: thankfully that's only bachelor's yes?
[03:59:43] <carabia> it is still borderline alarming
[04:00:28] <carabia> But hey, check out the youtube video and the sweet 360 interactive panorama.
[05:51:13] <Lambda_Aurigae> ok....bsc then...but still.
[06:02:05] <skz81> <carabia> seriously why are people attracted to attinys. The mega line is shit enough with its ram. > are they mega in DIP8 packages ?
[07:03:37] <cehteh> skz81: they have some advantages which megas dont have
[07:18:18] <Lambda_Aurigae> think I'm gonna order a couple of lpc arm chip.
[07:23:39] <Lambda_Aurigae> the nxp dip package arm chips have a built in bootloader in rom...so no programmer hardware needed beyond a serial port connect it seems.
[08:13:32] <Jartza> Lambda_Aurigae: you mean qualcomm? :)
[08:13:42] <Jartza> these mergers happen so fast it's hard to follow
[08:14:00] <Jartza> motorolafreescalephilipsnxpqualcomm
[08:14:17] <Jartza> sorry
[08:14:31] <Richard_Cavell> One day there will just be one company and one product, so that we'll be programming the Microchip microchip
[08:15:24] <Jartza> it's actually interesting to see if QC tries to buy Microchitchatmel or vice-versa
[08:16:09] <Jartza> but there's still STM, TI and Zumzang
[08:16:34] <Jartza> and Maxim
[08:25:56] <skz81> and Broadcom !
[08:47:58] <jacekowski> and samsung
[08:48:59] <jacekowski> are we moving over to #pic now or are we waiting for official announcement
[09:15:21] <Vikinger> Lambda_Aurigar i have used lpc1343
[09:15:35] <Vikinger> i just uploaded the software thru usb
[09:15:39] <Vikinger> serial
[09:15:44] <Vikinger> very convenient
[09:16:43] <Vikinger> yes
[09:16:52] <Vikinger> its becoming the auto industry
[09:20:07] <twnqx> gongradulations?
[09:21:40] <Vikinger> ?
[09:54:47] <skz81> gongradulations == " To congratulate someone by hitting a large copper plate to produce a loud sound " ?
[09:55:51] <skz81> hum gongRADUlation, not gongRATUlation, nice try but i'm out
[14:17:13] <crazy_imp> where can one find the entries for the makefile contest?
[14:17:30] <specing> lol
[14:33:07] <crazy_imp> specing: no one entered the contest?
[14:33:29] <crazy_imp> specing: the cannot find anything about the contest in the url from the topic
[14:58:38] <Jartza> crazy_imp: there is none
[14:58:42] <Jartza> it seems
[14:59:04] <Jartza> and the url has nothing to do with the "competition" that never existed
[14:59:56] <Emil> Yeah it was just a prank (bro)
[15:03:12] <crazy_imp> :(
[15:03:30] <specing> :)
[15:20:42] <Emil> I didn't enjoy it, either
[15:20:53] <Emil> Was expecting to see some fancy makefiles
[16:38:32] <Jartza> I'm having strange trouble with my VGA
[16:38:41] <Jartza> in simulator, everything seems to work
[16:38:47] <Jartza> but in reality, it doesn't
[16:39:04] <Jartza> I guess I need to wait for the new attinys to arrive so I can confirm if the chip is goner
[20:32:35] <Lambda_Aurigae> who was it pushing the cheap stm32 boards recently?
