19:56 zhanx sensor board being made
19:59 rue_house gppd shpw
20:00 zhanx issue with the keyboard?
20:01 zhanx all the jumpers are to allow one board and alot of different sensors to hook to it, select either 5v or 3.3v to power it,
20:01 zhanx can source with either a npn or pnp on it to be a switch
20:01 zhanx or go straight to it
20:02 zhanx and off course be able to program it with a jump
20:02 rue_house I did mine 3 pin, gnd power and signal, same as a servo
20:02 zhanx 3 pin is the final
20:03 zhanx but mine is power signal gnd
20:03 rue_house hey, isn't there a gland in the brain that can cause someone to get fat if it goes wrong?
20:03 zhanx sensor not servo, but its a wire swap if need and yes
20:04 zhanx still need to add some protecting diodes
20:05 zhanx this board will be tiny like a servo controller

20:22 any15786842 "or if a pipe burst" <<== there's some cheap flow detectors on ebay nowadays
20:23 zhanx i got one for cheap also
20:26 any15786842 what are the water detect boards for, leaks puddling in low places? so if the outside faucet bursts off the house and opened a 1/2" pipe wide open outside in winter?

21:10 rue_shop3 hi kat!
21:12 any15786842 hi rue!
21:12 any15786842 como esta?
21:13 any15786842 why doesn't terraserver gimme images from the 1950's any more?
21:16 any15786842 In January 2000, Microsoft and Aerial Images, now TerraServer.com, Inc., split their operations, creating two parallel TerraServer websites. The dualism caused confusion among web surfers until the Microsoft name change in 2010.
21:16 any15786842 TerraServer.com, Inc., which owns the trademark[6] TERRASERVER, filed a lawsuit[7] in 2008 in North Carolina federal court, seeking monetary damages and asking that Microsoft be stopped from using the TerraServer trademark.

22:11 rue_house ... while coding...

23:18 tsmeow-afk would like to make a suggestion to zhanx for the home controller: put a few serial ports on it, so multiple controllers can be connected: 1 in kitchen, 1 in bedroom, 1 in garage, 1 yet-to-be-designed phone inter
23:18 zhanx a few?
23:18 zhanx all of them have serial portsd
23:19 zhanx some have 3
23:19 katsmeow-afk that way, while coking you can be aleted, while sleeping you can be awakened, while working under the car you can be annoyed
23:19 katsmeow-afk ok, so long as it's a grow-able system :-)
23:19 zhanx very
23:19 zhanx have you hear of phant?
23:19 katsmeow-afk only ele phant
23:19 zhanx its a backend system for logging data
23:20 katsmeow-afk no
23:20 zhanx wifi based, it allows me to give quick alerts and keep my serial ports free
23:21 zhanx kat i have done a ton of research into this. but will take all advice
23:21 katsmeow-afk the data logger serves as the controller expansion port?
23:21 zhanx no
23:21 zhanx its part of the system
23:21 katsmeow-afk i expect you have done research
23:22 katsmeow-afk damnit, why does everyone think i am trying to take over their project if i make a sound?
23:22 zhanx i am not
23:22 zhanx damn it kat calm down
23:22 zhanx you know i have been working on this for months
23:22 katsmeow-afk [22:58] <zhanx> kat i have done a ton of research into this. but will take all advice <<== you got real defensive there, and i was NOT trying to be offensive
23:22 zhanx and yes i am taking all advice
23:23 katsmeow-afk why the defensive tho?
23:23 zhanx hello, it cant sell if you wouldn't want it either
23:23 zhanx this _><katsmeow-afk> damnit, why does everyone think i am trying to take over their project if i make a sound?
23:23 katsmeow-afk you said it first
23:23 zhanx that wasnt defensive
23:24 katsmeow-afk [22:58] <zhanx> kat i have done a ton of research <<== that was
23:24 zhanx heck i took your advice on it before
