  1. Re:Encouraging Overkill on Arduino Goes ARM · · Score: 0

    just use an attiny probelm solved

  2. Re:ok on Arduino Goes ARM · · Score: 0

    because knowing the arduino team this is going to be over the 50$ mark when it comes out, there is no indication that the chip is 5 volt tolerant which all the current 3rd party shields are 5 volt, the software is totally different and once lumped into the arduino crowd its going to be a nightmare for libraries if not handled correctly , and frankly it does not have enough ram to do anything else except be a overkill bit twiddler.

    Meanwhile for 40 bucks you can get a pic32 that will run BSD, or a half dozen other setups that run elua which is hands down 100x easier than arduino wants to be. I like arduino, I think its great, but for 32 bit there are better solutions than shoehorning arduino into it

  3. Re:Stop Importing Samsung Products To The US on Samsung Plans To Block the iPhone 5 In Korea · · Score: 0

    I would rather own a Samsung product any day over apple. For one they wont switch architectures every fucking 6 years and try to pass off some shitty emulator or 2x the size fat binaries they dont work to fill the gap.

  4. Re:Very nice, ideal for a lot of small projects. on Arduino Goes ARM · · Score: 0

    its just the IDE and wrapper functions at the moment, and besides there is not really enough ram on these to do much with an RTOS, mabe if it was doubled you could run bsd on it like the pic32, or even lua but 50 ish K, good luck

  5. ok on Arduino Goes ARM · · Score: 0

    there are dozens of arm board, some for as little as 10 bucks (ST) I just dont have the faith in this product.

    sorry, would you like to make a complete thought on topic please?

    well, in the past I might agree with you, but there is not enough brown to rationalize that thought with today's games

  9. Stunning on Stunning Time Lapse of the Earth From the ISS · · Score: -1

    Is a overused word.

  10. good on Thin Film Transforms Any Surface Into Touchscreen · · Score: 1

    I am so sick of that thin film touchscreen on glass (or other non conductive material) technology we have now

    what do you expect, the employment requirements for these guys is a high school diploma and pass a drug test

  12. Little velco straps made for holding cables on Ask Slashdot: Clever Cable Management? · · Score: 0

    you can get a 10 pack at the dollar tree, and an hour later when you notice you need to move something you dont have to cut and throw away a stupid ass zip tie

  15. Re:Joomla sucks! on Celebrate Software Freedom Today · · Score: 0

    yes it does, but I have yet to find anything that has all that extra bonus gravy and is not maintained by a bunch of morons (xoops)

  16. Re:Charlie is smokin' hot on An Easy Recipe For Quantum Dots · · Score: 1

    if all it takes is some sexist comments by random tards on a message board, then I fear we have a bigger problem

    on the other side of your coin, if more would get into science or engineering then this sort of reaction would not be nearly as common, so blame yourselves?

  17. Re:you lost the war on German Court Upholds Ban On Samsung Galaxy Tab · · Score: 1

    so the fuck what? Samsung Korea will just sell tablets in Europe, and hello? dumbfuck I dont care what you think of the law, but companies moving away from the local economy over laws happens every fucking day.

    look at electronic manufacture, the USA is so restrictive you cant find a fab house anywhere, they are all in china. Look at Amazon who hops states any time someone mentions sales tax, look at GM where the majority of their manufacturing still happens in Mexico where they are not bound to pay as much or care as much about safety ... welcome to 2011 fuck the world as long as we make a buck, you think some pissant country in east Europe is going to even slow down Samsung?
