visit the site again (do a ctrl+f5 refresh just in case) and then click on any of the slices

the numbers are messed up and not properly representative at the moment

the first main pie shows just the viewers in each of the top level forums

then you click each one and it shows a comparison of, for example, the users in SHSC vs YOSPOS vs Tech Support vs COBOL (although COBOL is hosed up because its the only subforum that has another subforum of its own)

well ithink it isvery hosed up that klavern of cobol is listed as its own forum!!!


but fwiw the ui is extremely snappy for a web thing

holy crap someone made a KSP serial communication library and someone else wrote a C library for AVR chips to go with it

at last, I will have my big red stage separation button

okay, combination big red button and cool vessel status panel

it transmits vessel status, orbit statistics, etc over serial and receives analog thrust controls and digital inputs for separation, abort, etc. here's a display someone built using the plugin/AVR program.



on the other hand this guy is making a project mercury-style all-analog control panel

lol if ur spending any real money on car audio components when u have the noise floor of highway driving

btw would it be possible to use noise canceling with car speakers or is it such a finicky technology it needs the absolute positioning of headphones re:ears?

it's very easy to overcome road noise anyway plus what are you listening to anyway classical music?

I feel sorry for people who don't try to maximise their time having thumping bass in they cars

yeah this. like i dont expect super low level accuracy but starting with better sounding components will still yield a better result. also there's always acoustic absorbing material you can install

ive never understood the mentality that suboptimal listening conditions completely cancel the benefits of nicer gear. they dont even if they mask quite a bit

As someone who used to do this stupid poo poo in highschool and compete in DBDrags. . . i will state, i'd rather have the road noise.

Every few moons though, i get the urge to go get my fiberglass shaping tools and masks and poo poo from my parents house, and head to the stereo shop I used to work at and just be like "i need 20 12" subwoofers, and 10 of those thousand watt amps"

I had an aux input, some shows I'd use a friends oscilloscope that he used for his rig to just generate sine waves that he calculated would put out more db with how the speakers were situated in relation to the mic area.

It would do subsonic really well, which scared people, when you can sit side by side talking in a normal voice but the bass is shaking your hair, and pushing your lungs in.

i was more into it at that point for the dbcomps, but I also did SQ comps in that vehicle. it actually had 5.1 sound and a dolby decoder for an optional dvd player. 27 total speakers in the guy, all high end kicker components backed by 6 xs1200 amps (if you look at the top you'll see vents, the amps are in the ceiling). 5 optima yellowtops, 2 300amp alternators, 305 smallblock chevy shoehorned into the bitch.

It did have remote gain on the amps for the subs, so I could crank them down for SQ, and crank up for DB

a while back I found a website that had a Votrax sound chip hooked up to the web and its output streamed via shoutcast so you could type phoneme codes and make it curse

asp.net supports serial communication too so I wrote a web form that set the display of my arduino at one point

not shoutcast but this is the one i know of

the votrax always was the best sounding of the old sound chips imo. not the most "realistic" but it had the best character

I'm trying to think of a way to make a 'touch' enabled ping pong table. maybe a kinect? put it over the table and have certain areas be triggers for input, so you'd hold your hand out over a corner and it'd trigger whatever ui element was there

I dunno if you can use a kinect like that, though.
