The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy defines the marketing division of the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation as "a bunch of mindless jerks who'll be the first against the wall when the revolution comes," with a footnote to the effect that the editors would welcome applications from anyone interested in taking over the post of robotics correspondent.
Slashdot, where Microsoft is Satan, Google is Evil, Apple is the Devil and open-source projects are pointless because thousands of programmers pulling in different directions.
Is there a good firmware with LCD and SD card support that doesn't require an Arduino and shields and is DIY-friendly?
I only need the SD card reading, LCD-display, gcode-to-step/dir-pulses part, I just want to make a headless TB6560-driven CNC.
A few people have suggested using one ATmega328P with grbl and another ATmega328P for reading the SD card, driving the LCD and reading the joystick+buttons.
Which board/firmware doesn't require a specialized program to receive the gcode? From what I've read most seem to require a program because some computers have serial ports problems or something.

Good D3D9 support means companies will care even less about Linux and will continue to target Windows only.
You'll be fine, until you take an arrow to the knee.
Cornelius's model implies breaking the system down until there is only five elements left.
I wish Netflix Canada was half of Netflix USA, that would be a 1000% upgrade.

It doesn't matter, the religious groupswill back you up anyway.
I'm going to sue Adobe for making Photoshop, the best image-editing software ever created, available for Microsoft Windows and Apple OS X.
Just because he's insane doesn't mean there's no religious group behind the lawsuit.
I blame the government.
What do you mean by "it was the only client side language at the time"?
It's still the only choice.
Welcome to the world of tomorrow!
If by something better you mean bankers, lawyers, marketers and medias in general, count me out.
I find it sad that there's a Hulu Japan before a Hulu Canada.

I was talking about grbl's problem with the lack of FTDI chip on recent Arduinos causing XON/XOFF flow control problems.
Do you have a suggestion for a firmware to use on a desktop CNC, apart from grbl?

Nope. I did say it was simple.
Here is how to send a file to be cut on an old Roland Modela MDX3 CNC machine:

Sometimes older technology is more simple.
I didn't redefine communism, I stayed true to its spirit for basic modern human needs. I just added capitalism on top of it for non-basic extras.
Stop loading dozens of fucking libraries and frameworks and learn to really code.
