L191[11:41:20]
<BrianH>
It's because kernel routines were not run by jumping to them.
Instead, every single call was made entirely with interrupts. This
worked okay, until you nad to do a lot of them. This is why most
packet drivers for doing networking on DOS with an ethernet card
can only achieve about 20 KB/s even on a 3Ghz cpu.

L223[13:47:41]
<BrianH>
which allows you to store 3 tracks of data at the same time if ytou
want to save files on it from your computer
L224[13:47:51] <Vexatos> I remember when I
was a child we had disney's jungle book on VHS and we watched it so
much it turned white
L225[13:47:53]
<bad at
vijya> kinda wanna hack a VHS player for data storage
purposes
L226[13:48:00]
<BrianH>
you have two sound channels that you can store data and one high
density video channel you can store a lot of data on
L227[13:48:01]
<BrianH> a
LOT
L228[13:48:02] <Vexatos> so then we bought
it on DVD
L229[13:48:19]
<BrianH>
you don't even need to hack one
L230[13:48:32]
<BrianH>
just transmit / receive FSK to and from the inputs and
outputs
L231[13:48:36]
<BrianH> or
QPSK, etc
L232[13:48:42]
<bad at
vijya> oh, fair
L233[13:48:55] <Vexatos> I mean these days
you can get tapes made specifically for high density data
storage
L234[13:49:13]
<BrianH> I
was actually looking into ways to store dumps of RAM from my
homebrew computer
L235[13:49:24]
<BrianH>
and I came up with using audio casettes or VHS tapes
L236[13:49:37]
<bad at
vijya> i have VHS tapes
L237[13:49:38]
<BrianH>
its easy its simple
L238[13:50:01]
<BrianH>
just write a tiny loader program and hit play on the vcr / tape
deck
L239[13:50:09]
<BrianH> or
record, if you're saving
L240[13:50:12] <Vexatos> can you still buy
drives that can write to VHS tapes?
L241[13:50:45]
<BrianH>
probably, Personally, I have an adio casette deck, two of them
actually for that
L242[13:50:58]
<BrianH> it
has a special cable that plugs into your computer's sound
card
L243[13:51:11]
<BrianH>
one wire is motor control so it can start and stop the tape
L244[13:51:20] <Vexatos> we have an old
recorder for compact cassettes
L245[13:51:20]
<BrianH>
you have to press record or play manually
L246[13:51:26] <Vexatos> like actually
expensive hifi stuff
L247[13:51:34]
<BrianH>
heh
L248[13:51:42]
<BrianH> I
still have a phone line
L249[13:51:45] <Vexatos> so as long as you
can transmit data over a microphone jack you can use that
L250[13:51:52]
<BrianH>
and for my answering machine I am using a taped machine
L251[13:52:08]
<BrianH>
but my machine takes full sized tapes not the mini ones
L252[13:52:16] <Vexatos> I still like
cassettes for music
L253[13:52:21] <Vexatos> they are so much
more robust to transport
L254[13:52:22] <Vexatos> >_>
L255[13:52:30]
<BrianH> I
have records for music
L256[13:52:50]
<BrianH>
and a CD deck from the late 80s
L257[13:53:09] <Vexatos> I mean vinyl is
like getting reasonably big again
L258[13:53:16] <Vexatos> you can buy
record players in mainstream stores
L259[13:53:29]
<BrianH> I
love my 80s audio technica record player
L260[13:53:30] <Vexatos> it's much more
popular for analogue music than cassettes
L261[13:53:35]
<BrianH>
you wont find those in mainstream stores
L262[13:53:37]
<BrianH>
😄
L263[13:54:33] <Vexatos> we have this hifi
shop nearby of a guy who buys and refurbishes old mega expensive
hardware
L264[13:54:50] <Vexatos> like the best of
the best from 40 years ago type of expensive
L265[13:55:22] <Saphire> ...
L266[13:56:05] <Saphire> I just set up
ipv6 for my vpn just to be able to connect irc relay client
L268[13:58:44]
<bad at
vijya> wew
L269[13:59:16]
<BrianH>
Don't worry about the 8000 watt amplifier there
L270[13:59:30] <Vexatos> I do not want to
touch the electronics inside
L271[14:00:08] <Vexatos> I don't have the
money for any of this
L272[14:00:14] <Vexatos> I have a €12 CD
drive in my PC does that count
L273[14:01:56]
<BrianH>
The amp isnt for the CD or record player or anything
L275[14:01:59]
<BrianH>
its for this
L276[14:02:13] <Vexatos> that's large
enough for a music hall
L277[14:02:39] <Vexatos> I feel bad for
your ears
L278[14:02:45]
<BrianH>
They came out of a university theater house
L279[14:03:26]
<BrianH>
they are 1979 Altec Lansings
L280[14:03:47] <Vexatos> we got an old
electric piano like that
L281[14:03:53]
<BrianH>
They were going to bring them outdoors and crush them with a
forklift because they were in storage never used, there for
backups
L282[14:03:58] <Vexatos> local choir
needed a place to store it, and eventually forgot it existed
L283[14:04:02]
<BrianH> I
was like nope I'm taking them
L284[14:04:03] <Vexatos> so now I have a
piano I don't need to tune
L285[14:04:30] <Vexatos> 1996 or so
clavinova
L286[14:04:34] <Vexatos> better than
nothing
L287[14:04:44] <Vexatos> (and quite
expensive at the time actually)
L288[14:05:06] <Vexatos> electric pianos
have improved a lot though
L290[14:05:41]
<BrianH> I
was very lucky to get them in such great condition
L291[14:06:04]
<BrianH> I
don't like keyboards but they are a lot of fun
L292[14:06:29] <Vexatos> an electric piano
is not a keyboard
L293[14:06:52] <Vexatos> it has proper
pedals and wooden keys and dynamics like a real piano
L294[14:07:27] <Vexatos> it's basically a
piano but you don't have to tune it
L295[14:07:37] <Vexatos> this one also has
some presets for other instruments but noone cares about
those
L296[14:08:12]
<BrianH> I
prefer to play on an actual piano.. they aren't really. . I learned
in a 1930s grand chickering and the electric pianos are no where
near the dynamics they say they are. I've seen the electric pianos
they claim are so good. They're nice but they aren't the same
L297[14:08:26] <Vexatos> a grand piano is
not a piano either
L298[14:08:48] <Vexatos> electric pianos
are comparable to upright pianos
L299[14:08:56] <Vexatos> especially modern
ones
L300[14:09:12] <Vexatos> the one I have is
over 20 years old as I said, it's not that good but it was free so
who am I to complain
L301[14:09:28] <Vexatos> I'd never have
the money for an acoustic piano, especially not if I want it to
stay tuned
L302[14:11:02]
<BrianH> I
had a upright one too before I lost the house, I don't know to me
they are the same, every piano feels different.
L303[14:11:40] <Vexatos> acoustic pianos
are very expensive to maintain since they are basically impossible
to tune yourself and getting them tuned is half the cost of a new
piano
L304[14:11:49]
<BrianH>
The chickering had keys made of ivory, and they had a different
texture to them than the Yamaha,
L305[14:11:54] <Vexatos> I'm quite happy
with an electric one
L306[14:12:40]
<BrianH>
Actually... I paid $250 to have the grand tuned by a pretty well
known guy in the area,
L307[14:12:49] <Vexatos> they look weird
as they are quite slim compared to acoustic upright pianos but the
keyboard looks and feels just like a real one, that's like the
whole point of them
L308[14:12:50]
<BrianH> It
wasn't bad
L309[14:12:57] <Vexatos> wow you must be
lucky
L310[14:13:16] <Vexatos> It's usually
almost a grand here
L311[14:13:22]
<BrianH>
They guy was near deaf but he was an amazing tuner
L312[14:14:18]
<BrianH> I
want a piano again but I don't want to spend money...
L313[14:14:29] <Vexatos> electric pianos
are much cheaper than acoustic ones
L314[14:14:36] <Vexatos> and don't cost
anything to maintain
L315[14:14:40]
<Kristopher38> @BrianH you've got a
homebrew computer?
L316[14:14:44]
<Kristopher38> I'm interested
L317[14:15:03]
<BrianH>
I'm working on one, @Kristopher38 .
L318[14:15:08]
<BrianH>
Multi board
L319[14:16:20]
<BrianH>
The problem Vex is that it just doesnt feel the same, when you hit
the keys and the hammer increases in acceleration and creates that
momentum you can feel, its impossible to make it feel 100%
real..
L320[14:17:16]
<BrianH>
it's kind of like how on an old car you can feel the throttle body
move when you step on the gas pedal
L321[14:17:36] <Vexatos> works for
me
L322[14:17:42]
<BrianH>
you can simulate it but itl never be perfect
L323[14:17:43] <Vexatos> it's either that
or no piano at all
L324[14:17:51]
<BrianH>
true
L325[14:17:53] <Vexatos> and it's much
preferred to no piano at all
L326[14:17:54] <Vexatos> and again
L327[14:18:03] <Vexatos> electric pianos
are MUCH cheaper even if you don't get them for free by
chance
L328[14:18:10]
<BrianH>
yeah
L329[14:18:19]
<BrianH>
when choosing between the cost of a car or a piano...
L330[14:18:21] <Vexatos> the top of the
line is like €5000
L331[14:18:33] <Vexatos> and the €3000
ones are already very very good
L332[14:19:15]
<BrianH>
@Kristopher38 It's a multi board stack machine with TOSlink address
/ data bus for peripherals.
L333[14:19:22]
<BrianH>
using an RDMA Scheme
L334[14:20:57]
<BrianH>
Also, no FPGAs.
L335[14:21:08]
<BrianH>
The most complicated hardware components are CPLDs.
L336[14:21:30]
<SnailDOS>
lol I got a akai mpk play mini
L337[14:22:11]
<BrianH>
Sadly Vex I think the local music store that had electric pianos
themselves is going out of business due to covid
L338[14:22:49]
<Kristopher38> That's a lot of terms that
I do not know the meaning of
L339[14:23:08]
<BrianH>
Then you might learn something
L340[14:23:09]
<SnailDOS>
Same...
L341[14:23:27]
<Kristopher38> First, what's a TOSlink
address/data bus and RDMA scheme?
L342[14:23:41] <Vexatos> toslink is a data
connection type
L343[14:23:42]
<Kristopher38> Or should I rather Google
them myself?
L344[14:23:45]
<BrianH> ok
well first TOSLink is LED fiber
L345[14:23:49] <Vexatos> it's glass
fibre
L346[14:24:01]
<Kristopher38> Damn
L347[14:24:16]
<SnailDOS>
bruh
L348[14:24:17] <Vexatos> @Kristopher38
your PC probably has one of those at the back
L349[14:24:23]
<BrianH> do
they make them glass now last I knew TOSLink / SPDIF was plastic
instead because of the lower bandwidth and cost
L350[14:24:26] <Vexatos> if you see a
weird looking connector that is glowing red
L351[14:24:33] <Vexatos> at the back
L352[14:24:35]
<SnailDOS>
... looks at printer cable connection
L353[14:24:39]
<Kristopher38> Yeah, it's called spdif
afaik
L354[14:24:52]
<SnailDOS>
OH I SAW THOSE BEFORE
L355[14:24:58]
<SnailDOS>
Are they old?
L356[14:25:04] <Vexatos> SPDIF is the
standard running on it
L357[14:25:07] <Vexatos> the connector is
TOSLINK
L358[14:25:08]
<BrianH>
They've been around, but they aren't outdated
L359[14:25:18]
<Kristopher38> Oh I see
L360[14:25:19]
<SnailDOS>
Thought so.
L361[14:25:21]
<BrianH>
The PS2 console had them
L362[14:25:23] <Vexatos> SPDIF is a
standard for transmitting digital audio data
L363[14:25:29]
<SnailDOS>
Toshiba made it lol
L364[14:25:38] <Vexatos> so you can use it
to connect your PC to a DAC for example
L365[14:25:40] <Vexatos> instead of
USB
L366[14:26:00]
<Kristopher38> Yeah I've heard those are
used for audio
L367[14:26:00] <Vexatos> but yes that is
toslink
L368[14:26:05]
<SnailDOS>
wait toshiba died?
L369[14:26:35]
<Forecaster> it's probably bad that nearly
all fans in a server are dead or near-dead except the cpu fan
L370[14:26:43]
<Kristopher38> Why did you choose that
over standard electrical connections?
L371[14:27:00] <Vexatos> @BrianH material
isn't part of the standard. All cheap ones are made of plastic but
those have limtied range
L372[14:27:22]
<BrianH> 🙂
Because I have been experimenting with the idea of serial bus
design instead of parallel bus design.
L373[14:27:33]
<BrianH>
Vex, right, I wouldnt think so
L374[14:27:48] <Vexatos> plastic TOSLINK
dies off after a few metres
L375[14:27:59]
<BrianH>
Kris, do you know how parallel data bus systems work?
L376[14:28:00] <Vexatos> it's really not
that great
L377[14:29:16]
<Kristopher38> I know the principle,
sender puts data on the bus, it signals its availability on one
line, and acquire is sent on another line, or you just put your
data on the bus and hope that it stabilizes before the next clock
cycle
L378[14:29:34]
<Forecaster> time to roll up a new hard
drive name again, this time replacing old SaphireCore (which has
been misspelled for many years)
L379[14:30:02]
<Kristopher38> And that all lines are
synced up and there's no crosstalk
L380[14:30:04]
<BrianH>
@Forecaster call the new one AlphaSaphireCore or
UltraSunCore?
L381[14:30:05]
<BrianH>
hahaha
L382[14:30:19] <Vexatos> @Forecaster
"typoed mineral names" is a very unique naming
scheme
L383[14:30:27]
<Forecaster> nope, rolling on the periodic
table for a new name
L384[14:30:36] <Vexatos> Oh I can do
that
L385[14:30:40] <Vexatos> I know all
elements
L386[14:30:47] <Vexatos> I am a chemist
after all, that's how this works right
L387[14:31:01]
<Forecaster> Vexatos hey I thought that's
how Sapphire was spelled and didn't look it up
L388[14:31:11] <Vexatos> sapphire is my
favourite element
L389[14:31:12]
<Forecaster> %roll d118
L390[14:31:12] <MichiBot> 20
L391[14:31:15]
<BrianH>
Kris, it's not generally crosstalk that is trhe issue on the local
PCB, it's generally the inductance and capacitance that is made
between wiring on different layers, I won't get into that
though
L392[14:31:21] <Vexatos> calcium it
is
L393[14:31:23]
<Forecaster> Calcium
L394[14:31:24]
<BrianH>
however, board to board, yes crosstalk can be an issue
L395[14:31:30]
<Forecaster> so CalciumCore
L396[14:31:40] <Vexatos> it's good for
your bones
L397[14:31:48]
<Forecaster> and your data
L398[14:32:38] <Vexatos> @BrianH there is
a reason serial buses won over parallel
L399[14:32:45]
<BrianH>
with my setup, peripherals are on separate boards and use one wire
to communicate. The clock signal is included in the same signal
that the data is.
L400[14:32:47] <Vexatos> noone wants to
deal with the problems anymore
L401[14:32:55]
<BrianH>
pretty much
L402[14:33:11]
<Forecaster> I ran out of space for movies
and misc on my media server, so I finally have to replace the 2TB
drive with a 4TB one
L403[14:34:07]
<Kristopher38> I think I have an idea of
what you mean, because of the inductance the lines resist change of
voltage?
L404[14:34:21]
<BrianH>
change in current
L405[14:34:29]
<Kristopher38> Sorry, I'm not well
educated on the topic
L406[14:34:33]
<BrianH>
capacitors resist change in voltage, inductors change in
currentg
L407[14:34:34]
<BrianH>
🙂
L408[14:34:39]
<BrianH>
but you're on the right track
L409[14:34:51]
<BrianH>
you have the right idera
L410[14:34:58]
<BrianH>
you have the right idea [Edited]
L411[14:35:30]
<Kristopher38> Most of my knowledge on
this comes from various electronics channels that I sometimes
watch
L412[14:35:38]
<Kristopher38> As in YouTube
channels
L413[14:36:08]
<BrianH>
That's cool. I went to school for EE and CE combined but I also
learned a lot on my own because school isnt everything
L414[14:36:19]
<Kristopher38> Alright, so less lines
means less capacitance and inductance
L415[14:36:48]
<Forecaster> now I just need to get
another 4TB drive to mirror this one like I have with the tv
shows
L416[14:36:57]
<Xandaros>
You can learn a surprising amount by just watching youtube. But you
can also learn surprisingly little.
L417[14:36:57]
<Xandaros>
I think it was a year after I first heard "pull-up
resistor" that I finally understood what they are actually
used for
L418[14:37:17]
<BrianH> I
find books to be the best resource for me
L419[14:37:30]
<Xandaros>
Considering what a simple concept that is, it does make me question
the viability of learning things this way 😄
L420[14:38:04] <Vexatos> capacitance is
something you get simply by having any two pieces of metal near
each other
L421[14:38:38]
<Forecaster> or another capacitive
material
L422[14:38:40]
<Forecaster> like a person
L423[14:38:48]
<Kristopher38> I feel like the best
educational content is hidden in books, while on the internet
everyone can publish something (and that's great), books are
usually written by experts on the topic
L424[14:38:51] <Vexatos> yea

L427[14:40:08]
<Kristopher38> Anyway, so with a fiber
connection you electrically isolate all boards, right?
L428[14:41:11]
<BrianH>
yep. That's how it communicates with peripherals, be ity another
cpu board or a UART for Serial communication or some fancy dancy
LED hobby board or whatever you want
L429[14:41:59]
<Kristopher38> Next thing on the list was
uhh
L430[14:42:04]
<Kristopher38> RDMA scheme
L431[14:42:15]
<BrianH> So
do you know what DMA is?
L432[14:42:27] <Izaya> BrianH: been
thinking I should do a processor out of EPROM chips
L433[14:42:33]
<Kristopher38> Yeah
L434[14:42:45]
<BrianH>
that would be extremely high latency Izaya
L435[14:43:01]
<BrianH>
good EEPROMs sometimes have a fetch latency of at least 20ns
L436[14:43:08] <Izaya> not EEPROM
L437[14:43:11] <Izaya> EPROM
L438[14:43:21]
<BrianH> oh
I saw too many Es lol
L439[14:44:04]
<BrianH> so
my system uses DMA for everything inter board communication.
L440[14:44:19] <Izaya> a few EPROMs and a
register file and you have yourself a processor /o/
L441[14:44:36]
<BrianH>
however it behaves much more like a DMA network, so I basically
refer to it as RDMA, as it can be controlled remotely between
boards , if you have a multi cpu setup, etc
L442[14:44:39] <Vexatos> is it DMA over
toslink?
L443[14:45:12]
<BrianH>
yeah so the DMA circuitry uses the fiber as its medium to
communicate with other DMA hosts
L444[14:46:08]
<BrianH>
they have a mini protocol for talking to eachother so that two DMA
hosts can agree to copy large portions of memory or sequences of
memory from one location to another
L445[14:46:34]
<BrianH>
each DMA host can be either a slave or a master at any given
time
L446[14:47:03]
<SnailDOS>
If anyone wants to read about this, this is opencomputers btw, I
have so much power its not even funny I actually want to build like
a "super" server. Is there any code that links computers
with computers? Or something... idk.. Any projects to do? With
servers?
L447[14:47:09]
<Wattana>
anyone here have experiences coding in Vala?
L448[14:47:18]
<Wattana> I
need some help loading a binary file into a struct
L449[14:47:20]
<SnailDOS>
Vala? Never heard of it.
L450[14:47:21]
<BrianH>
I've even considered combining DMA hosts to be kind of "multi
core" you could call it and use two fiber cables for full
duplex, but I don't see an advantage in doing this
L451[14:47:23] <Amanda> Ages ago,
yes
L452[14:47:28] <Amanda> never got much
into it though
L453[14:47:30] <Izaya> that's the Gtk
scripting language innit?
L454[14:47:43]
<Wattana>
> that's the Gtk scripting language innit?
L455[14:47:43]
<Wattana> I
think
L456[14:47:55] <Amanda> Izaya: transpiles
into GObject-flavoured C, then compiled, yup
L457[14:48:15]
<Kristopher38> @BrianH damn, that's pretty
elegant solution
L458[14:48:31] <Vexatos> @BrianH do you
have anything functional yet
L459[14:48:34]
<Kristopher38> From an inexperienced
person's view at least :D
L461[14:49:16]
<BrianH>
Not yet, I have some kicad designs half laid out for various things
but I have good news: I've been writing an emulator for it in
Elixir as of a week or so ago to prototype the logic at a mid
level
L462[14:49:48]
<BrianH>
I'm going to be presenting it for my makerspace group
L463[14:49:53] <Izaya> erlang would be
mildly cursed in all the right ways for circuit emulation
L464[14:50:17]
<BrianH> I
just know Elixir's syntax better
L465[14:50:40] <Izaya> I'm just thinking
the whole architecute of the erlang VM
L466[14:50:47]
<BrianH>
yeah
L467[14:51:10] <Vexatos> we don't even
have anything like a makerspace here
L468[14:51:43]
<Kristopher38> I wish to build a homebrew
computer one day, but I lack some practical experience and money,
and therefore proper equipment and parts
L469[14:53:01]
<BrianH>
Kris, the main board cosists of the CPU which is on a CPLD and
various other support circuitry, of course you have your timing
circuitry too etc, and SRAM for local memory. I haven't decided how
much. another CPLD is used for MMU/DMA, which has its own SRAM chip
to hold its config, and then theres the buffer as well for
messaging on the peripheral bus
L470[14:53:39]
<BrianH>
it's more event driven than IRQ drive, but the local board does
have IRQs.
L471[14:54:12] <Izaya> what if
OpenComputers style events as interrupts
L472[14:54:32]
<BrianH>
heh
L473[14:54:38]
<BrianH>
you could simulate that
L474[14:55:06] <Izaya> I'm thinking like,
each interrupt has an x byte buffer to pass data
L475[14:55:21] <Izaya> you have a FIFO of
interrupts
L476[14:55:36]
<BrianH>
that's kind of how it works, which is why I needed DMA.
L477[14:55:43] <Izaya> ah that makes
sense
L478[14:55:57] <Izaya> rather than the
processor having a mailbox hardware can DMA stuff into an event
queue?
L479[14:56:13]
<SnailDOS>
I need something to do with oc
L480[14:56:38]
<SnailDOS>
I already downloaded almost every program and tested them.. OH! I
should rate them actuallyy.
L481[14:56:40]
<SnailDOS>
I already downloaded almost every program and tested them.. OH! I

L482[14:56:41] <Izaya> figure out
robot-based autocrafting
L483[14:56:54] <Vexatos> cruor and I did
that last december
L484[14:56:54]
<BrianH>
^
L485[14:56:56] <Vexatos> that was
fun
L486[14:57:00] <Izaya> Vexatos: do
tell
L487[14:57:00]
<SnailDOS>
The only thing I think I haven't done is tested lunatic..
L488[14:57:03]
<SnailDOS>
wtf
L489[14:57:09]
<SnailDOS>
robot based auto crafting
L490[14:57:15]
<SnailDOS>
wht......
L491[14:57:15] <Izaya> I found out
OCDevices has a recipe databse you can allow to just look up any
recipe
L492[14:57:16]
<BrianH>
I'm still going over fine details of the DMA and event
handling
L493[14:57:23]
<SnailDOS>
like.. a robot auto crafting?
L494[14:57:32]
<BrianH> It
has to be simple enough to work out with a limited ammount of
hardware
L495[14:57:34]
<SnailDOS>
ye but it doesn't have the code lol
L496[14:57:49] <Izaya> so I guess my
horrid several MB compressed recipe database is redundant
L497[14:58:05]
<SnailDOS>
Oh while I am here, can i link up servers with servers using
wireless cards? or use disk space as memory?
L498[14:58:09] <Izaya> though I use that
code for mounting compressed archives now so it's not a total
loss
L499[14:58:14] <Vexatos> Izaya, cruor got
tired of crafting OC components so we wrote a bot that does it for
us. We fill it with base components like redstone dust and iron
ingots, and tell it to craft a thing by name, and it crafts it
recursively all the way there after checking that it has all the
basic resources
L500[14:58:58]
<SnailDOS>
what where is that
L501[14:59:04]
<SnailDOS>
where do you find all this stuff??
L502[14:59:07] <Izaya> Vexatos: I exported
all the recipes with CraftDumper then compressed them into a dodgy
database format and did basically the same
L503[14:59:10]
<SnailDOS>
I am missing out lol
L504[14:59:11] <Vexatos> we played for
like 20 days but the server at the end was quite advanced tbh. We
had autocrafting with robots, autosmelting with drones, and a drone
running our sorting system
L505[14:59:18] <Vexatos> @SnailDOS we
coded it ourselves
L506[15:00:05]
<SnailDOS>
Was it uploaded anywhere..? Out of curiosity.
L507[15:00:15] <Vexatos> all the drones
only had a code ID in the data part of the EEPROM and a generic
bootloader in the code part, on boot it would contact a central
server with the ID, and the server would send the code with that
filename back for it to load
L508[15:00:15]
<SnailDOS>
That's pretty fricken awsome I must say
L509[15:00:27]
<Forecaster> I figured out robot
autocrafting back during my 1.7.10 letsplay, for my ic2
reactor
L510[15:00:27]
<SnailDOS>
LMAO thats AWSOME
L511[15:00:30] <Vexatos> so we could edit
all our smelting drones at once by editing the version on the
server
L512[15:00:49] <Vexatos> which was
standing like 10 blocks away
L513[15:00:51] <Izaya> Vexatos: I had
issues with my autocrafting stalling
L514[15:00:58]
<BrianH>
@Kristopher38 The other major component is interconnecting lots of
components. To do this a specialized DMA host sits on its own board
with channelized IO. The design of my DMA I've been working on an
idea of a frame relay (kind of like a T1) sort of setup, where the
number of channels transmitting is dynamic every frame.
L515[15:00:59] <Izaya> it'd get stuck in a
loop and I never figured out why
L516[15:01:24] <Izaya> also I was handling
it all from one machine and using the robot's components over RPC
because I hate things being fast
L517[15:01:27] <Vexatos> Izaya, the way we
taught it recipes was by placing the recipe and its result into the
robot in the right pattern
L518[15:01:28]
<BrianH>
this allows multiple CPUs and peripherals to intercommunicate
seemingly at the same time
L519[15:01:33] <Vexatos> and then running
a command
L520[15:01:35] <Vexatos> it'd learn the
recipe
L521[15:01:39] <Vexatos> and then it could
replicate it
L522[15:01:45] <Izaya> yeah that makes
sense
L523[15:02:09] <Vexatos> no cheating like
ocdevices
L524[15:02:12] <Izaya> I was thinking I'd
figure out the recipe db component API then make a vcomponent that
doesn't need the item
L525[15:02:20] <Vexatos> OC was our only
content mod
L526[15:02:31]
<Forecaster> I just entered mine in
manually cause it was just a handful of reactor fuel items
L527[15:02:35] <Vexatos> (and pixelmon for
some reason, that was cool)
L528[15:02:36] <Izaya> Vexatos: I went
with craftdumper when I did it because I'm lazy
L529[15:03:15]
<BrianH>
With that said Kris you can probably tell that the DMA CPLDs run a
LOT faster than the CPU does
L530[15:03:42]
<BrianH> If
I can achieve a working model with the CPU running at 2Mhz, I will
be satisfied.
L531[15:04:09]
<SnailDOS>
Vexatos, Out of interest is it open source? I am interested
lol.
L532[15:04:22] <Vexatos> of course it is,
just hack into our minecraft server to get it
L533[15:04:25]
<BrianH> As
long as I can run instructions at least 40Khz I will be satisfied.
my design already does any ionstruction in under 3 main clock
cycles
L534[15:04:31]
<SnailDOS>
lmao
L535[15:04:52] <Vexatos> we also found
multiple bugs in cruor's midi player on that server
L536[15:04:56] <Vexatos> so that's much
better now
L537[15:05:01] <Vexatos> (please use the
sound card)
L538[15:05:40]
<Forecaster> mine is on my GitLab
L539[15:06:10] <Vexatos> we also had a
robot without a screen or keyboard but an upgrade container
consuming enchantments from an enchanted book farm
L541[15:06:28] <Vexatos> to level XP
upgrades
L542[15:06:32] <Vexatos> so we could have
high level mining robots
L543[15:06:47] <Vexatos> it didn't even
have a hard drive
L544[15:06:55] <Vexatos> the code ran on
the EEPROM
L545[15:07:00] <Izaya> I really need to
write an "export all components" RPC thingo for embedded
devices
L546[15:07:02]
<SnailDOS>
dude
L547[15:07:04]
<SnailDOS>
your mental
L548[15:07:08] <Izaya> having to customise
stuff every time is a pain >.>
L549[15:07:13]
<SnailDOS>
how much is on a eeprom.. all i know is nothing
L550[15:07:20]
<SnailDOS>
* is its nothing
L551[15:07:24] <Izaya> it'd be nice if I
could just say "slap everything into the RPC table"
L552[15:07:27] <Vexatos> EEPROM can fit
4096 characters
L553[15:07:34] <Izaya> 4096 bytes
L554[15:08:13]
<SnailDOS>
my golly god
L555[15:09:01] <Izaya> fwiw, you can quite
happily fit a small OS with networking and a vfs into that
L556[15:09:08] <Vexatos> I wrote a version
of flash.lua that flashed to the data bytes of the EEPROM instead
of the code bytes
L557[15:09:15] <Vexatos> because we were
using that extensively

I just got recommend this... uhm...
L561[15:09:32] <Vexatos> all drones ran
the same bootloader but the data part determined which code it
loaded
L562[15:09:46]
<SnailDOS>
I wonder if this kid will do it, in 356 days.
L563[15:09:53] <Vexatos> a lot of stuff
youc an do
L564[15:10:05] <Vexatos> if you want
to
L565[15:10:33] <Vexatos> we used
microcontrollers for high speed item transport

Alright so... Any server stuff to do? on my OC server?
L589[15:13:26]
<SnailDOS>
Just for fun?
L590[15:13:59] <Izaya> Vexatos: maybe you
can come up wiht some suitably cursed ideas for me
L591[15:14:07] <Izaya> what could I do
with 800MB of space in OC?
L592[15:14:09] <Vexatos> step 1 find
annoying thing
L593[15:14:12] <Vexatos> step 2 make robot
do it
L594[15:14:16] <Vexatos> that's it
L595[15:14:17]
<Forecaster> make two computers fight with
swords
L596[15:14:22]

L605[15:15:16]
<SnailDOS>
Then learn oc api
L606[15:15:21]
<SnailDOS>
Can it be that hard?
L607[15:15:25]
<SnailDOS>
Is indenting hard?
L608[15:15:36] <Izaya> just :set
autoindent in vim
L609[15:15:43]
<SnailDOS>
Do I even HAVE to indent..? omg sorry for the flood I need to stop
this habit
L610[15:16:01] <Vexatos> you can write all
of lua in a single line if you want
L611[15:16:04] <Vexatos> not
recommended
L612[15:16:11]
<SnailDOS>
loL
L613[15:16:13]
<Forecaster> you can write an entire
program on one line
L614[15:16:19]
<SnailDOS>
You don;t need to compile it..
L615[15:16:21]
<SnailDOS>
do you..
L616[15:16:38]
<SnailDOS>
i assume not
L617[15:16:47]
<SnailDOS>
:GWseremePeepoGGERS: you don't!
L618[15:16:52]

LOL im learning this asap
L619[15:17:00]
<SnailDOS>
what about gui? that hard?
L620[15:17:06]
<BrianH>
lol suddenly I imagine snailDOS as if they went from python to Lua.
"Wait, you mean indentation is optional?! Yeah, because Lua
doesn't suck"
L621[15:17:06]
<BrianH>
lol
L622[15:17:15] <Vexatos> GUI? GUIs are
like
L623[15:17:16] <Vexatos> 1995
L624[15:17:18] <Vexatos> get with the

L670[15:22:00]
<SnailDOS>
mega thonk
L671[15:22:02] <Vexatos> the one in the

L672[15:22:12]
<BrianH>
The IBM is german?
L673[15:22:15] <Vexatos> yes
L674[15:22:28]

<SnailDOS>
what this do?
L680[15:23:17] <Vexatos> a 5" CRT
screen and a keypad with like 20 buttons
L681[15:23:20]
<SnailDOS>
sleep.. for how long?
L682[15:23:26] <Vexatos> you program the
solvent gradient on that
L683[15:23:39]
<BrianH>
talk about people who hack on older hardware... does anyone know
whatever happened to Grueskoph?
L684[15:23:41]
<Forecaster> that would probably error
because it takes an argument in seconds
L685[15:24:13] <Vexatos> and it prints the
signal with a needle kind of like a seismometer
L686[15:24:15] <Vexatos> it's so
weird

<BrianH>
large numbers of them, inparticular [Edited]
L702[15:29:53] <Amanda> If a fox like

L703[15:30:08] <Inari> %splash
Amanda
L704[15:30:09] <MichiBot> Inari flings a
shimmering violium potion (New!) that splashes onto Amanda. Amanda
gains a negligible amount of luck.
L705[15:30:15] <Inari> psh
L706[15:30:19] <Amanda> :3
L707[15:30:50]
<Ocawesome101> @SnailDOS have you tried
Monolith and/or Fuchas and/or PsychOS 2?
L708[15:34:29]
<Forecaster> %splash Inari
L709[15:34:29] <MichiBot> Forecaster
flings a cloudy rock potion (New!) that splashes onto Inari. Inari
turns into a solarium toad boy until someone baps them.
L710[15:35:03] <Amanda> @Forecaster also,
random potion effect idea: "<user>'s home water line is
somehow replaced with <random potion> instead."
L711[15:35:25] <Amanda> I'd submit a PR
for it, but I've been lazy and distracted by my factory
L712[15:35:42]
<Forecaster> doesn't really work though
since potions change constantly
L713[15:36:33]
<Forecaster> and it's not like MichiBot is
rationing potions in any way :P
L714[15:36:36]
<BrianH>

L717[15:39:23]
<Kristopher38> @BrianH sorry I left the
discussion, family called
L718[15:40:06]
<BrianH>
Heh you have no obligation to listen to my crap don't worry
L719[15:40:51]
<Kristopher38> I was the one who asked you
in the first place tho
L720[15:41:26]
<BrianH>
Just so you know I'll be open sourcing the hardware
L721[15:41:32]
<BrianH> it
will be available as a kicad project
L722[15:41:48]
<BrianH> or
collection of them rather
L723[15:50:41]
<Kristopher38> Your idea for seemingly
parallel transfer is nice
L724[15:51:19]
<Kristopher38> Sorry i can't say anything
more, you're just on a higher power level :P
L725[15:51:45]
<BrianH> It
was basically a solution for allowing say one cpu board to
communicate with say a VGA output peripheral at the same time sound
was being transferred to some sort of DAC.
L726[15:53:26]
<Kristopher38> Oh right, that's certainly
a concern
L727[15:53:42]
<BrianH>
the main board will only have like two ports
L728[15:53:48]
<BrianH>
perhaps one
L729[15:54:18]
<BrianH> so
in the middle there are specialized DMA hosts for routing that kind
of information so that one main board coule communicate with
several peripherals remotely
L730[15:58:12]
<BrianH>
The one problem I've been having is how to address
peripherals
L731[15:58:33]
<BrianH>
One way to do it is to use a 16 bit peripheral ID
L732[15:59:16]
<BrianH> It
would allow for up to 65536 peripherals
L733[15:59:29]
<Kristopher38> That would require some
sort of setup on the PCB or in software, right?
L734[15:59:44]
<BrianH>
that, or use a DIP switch design to let you manually set each
one
L735[15:59:54]
<BrianH>
memory mapped
L736[16:00:09]
<Kristopher38> Oh right, or one of
those
L737[16:00:20]
<BrianH> I
could however do something a bit more special
L738[16:01:25]
<BrianH> I
could make it so that every peripheral board had a basic EEPROM
with firmware on it that controls the DMA host on the peripheral
board. In that, a hardware type could be referenced. I could make
that 8 bit, and then have an 8 bit dip switch. This way, you ONLY
need to touch the dip switch if you had two or more of the same
peripheral
L739[16:01:47]
<BrianH> I
could also make it autoconfigure one, maaaaaybe.
L740[16:02:05]
<BrianH>
that would require some more complex logic.
L741[16:03:00]
<BrianH>
the way this would work is that it would "Scan" for
anything with the same hardware type ID
L742[16:03:15]
<BrianH>
checks only need a simple bitwise AND and XNOR
L743[16:04:15]
<BrianH>
since there would only be 256 of those it wouldn't take too
long
L744[16:04:30]
<Kristopher38> So some sort of partial
autoconfiguration
L745[16:04:42]
<BrianH>
again this requires a significant more ammount of logic
L746[16:05:09]
<BrianH>
Ever used a multitap for a playstation?
L747[16:05:29]
<Kristopher38> I would personally try to
not overcomplicate things
L748[16:05:41]
<Kristopher38> Sadly never owned a
playstation
L750[16:05:51]
<BrianH> Oh
crap wrong picture
L751[16:05:53]
<BrianH>
nevbermind that
L752[16:06:11]
<Kristopher38> I'm gonna get that one as
well
L753[16:06:13]
<Kristopher38> ;)
L755[16:06:36]
<Kodos>
%tonk
L756[16:06:37] <MichiBot> Yay! Kodos! You
beat SnailDOS's previous record of 1 hour, 38 minutes and 27
seconds (By 4 hours, 41 minutes and 23 seconds)! I hope you're
happy!
L757[16:06:37] <MichiBot> Kodos's new
record is 6 hours, 19 minutes and 51 seconds! Kodos also gained
0.00938 (0.00469 x 2) tonk points for stealing the tonk. Position
#8. Need 0.04985 more points to pass simon816!
L758[16:06:42]
<BrianH> so
far io works kind of like these
L759[16:06:54]
<BrianH>
you daisy chain the DMA hosts together
L760[16:06:59]
<BrianH> it
makes a star network
L761[16:07:30]
<BrianH>
the more chains you make the more latency
L762[16:10:23]
<Kristopher38> O gosh I can imagine
that
L763[16:11:54]
<Kristopher38> As far as my projects go, I
want to make a game for more than 2 people for the c64 and the way
it would work is you'd have multiple c64s connected together
through the user port
L764[16:13:04]
<Kristopher38> Since I now own two of
those I want to write some fancy stuff only allowed when there are
2 machines available
L765[16:13:26]
<BrianH> I
can't speak for the c64, but make sure that it's capable of IRQ on
that port
L766[16:13:40]
<BrianH> on
the TRS-80 Icoco I showed you a picture of I have, there are none
and you have to bitbang it
L767[16:13:54]
<BrianH>
jmaking it unsuitable for something like that in most cases
L768[16:14:14]
<Kristopher38> Hmm, let me see
L769[16:14:31]
<BrianH> I
have only ever talked to the graphics registers of a c64
L771[16:14:55]
<BrianH>
you may recognize it
L772[16:15:05]
<BrianH>
this is how I can avoid a clock signal
L773[16:15:44]
<Kristopher38> Don't know how it's called
but I see how it works
L774[16:16:10]
<BrianH>
it's the same method used for n64 controllers, and also some RGB
LED strips
L775[16:16:27] <Izaya> haven't looked but
I'm guessing commodore serial bus
L776[16:16:29] <Izaya> oh
L777[16:16:41]
<Kristopher38> It synchronizes on the
rising/falling edges, and the pulse length is modulated to signify
0/1
L778[16:16:46]
<BrianH>
yep
L779[16:16:58]
<BrianH> no
clock wire needed
L780[16:17:37]
<BrianH> if
you reset the clock counter every falling edge, then the distance
between a 1 and a 0 or whatnot can be infinite
L781[16:18:26]
<BrianH>
this allows you to slow the bit rate down if you wish without
slowing down the transfer rate
L782[16:18:31]
<BrianH>
🙂
L783[16:19:11]
<BrianH>
well, not the transfer rate, but without slowing down the rate in
which the clock that transmits bits is handled
L784[16:19:52]
<BrianH>
only the transmitter needs to slow down, the receiver will always
run as fast as the sender without negotiating the speed
L785[16:23:16]
<BrianH> to
allow for fine tuning of performance, there are multiplexers with
multiple clock signals available.
L786[16:23:52]
<BrianH>
you could use a 12 Mhz crystal and set the clock divider register
to 1250 to achieve 9600 baud for example.
L787[16:26:43]
<BrianH> I
wish they made these with the smaller form factor built in
L789[16:27:43]
<BrianH>
guess its no bug deal to get the 14 pin ones
L790[16:28:20] <Inari> I wouldn't
generally trade in bugs either
L791[16:29:04]
<BrianH> Oh
hello Inari
L792[16:29:18] <Inari> Ohi
L793[16:33:50]
<BrianH>
TIL walmart sells components. wut?
L795[16:33:57]
<BrianH>
must be a private seller
L796[16:34:22]
<BrianH>
why would you though
L797[16:37:32]
<Kristopher38> Alright, found what I was
looking for
L798[16:38:01]
<BrianH>
oh?
L799[16:38:03]
<Kristopher38> There's an interrupt
generated on the CIA chip if serial port goes full/empty
L800[16:38:17]
<BrianH>
that's useful
L801[16:38:45]
<Kristopher38> And when the FLAG line is
active (?)
L802[16:38:50]
<BrianH>
does the C64 have any sort of IRQ controller or is it just straight
up IRQ fires and you have to go searching for wth happened
L803[16:39:50]
<Kristopher38> Irq fires and you need to
look into specific memory-mapped registers on various chips to find
out which interrupt fired by checking a bitmask
L804[16:40:21]
<BrianH>
ok....hmm
L805[16:40:29]
<BrianH>
though the CIA may use an NMI?
L806[16:40:42]
<BrianH> if
it does you're in luck
L807[16:41:30]
<BrianH>
You know, if it werent for one of my coworkers getting the same day
off a year or two ago, I was supposed to meet Chuck Peddle?
L808[16:42:23]
<BrianH> he
was doing a presentation at the university here and I was all set
and planned to attend and have a word with him. Unfortunately, he
died months afterwards, and I never got to see him.
L809[16:43:01]
<BrianH> In
retrospect, I should have just called out
L810[16:44:09]
<BrianH>
Kris, if you don't know who Chuck Peddle is, he invented the
6502
L811[16:45:12]
<Kristopher38> Oh damn
L812[16:45:26]
<Kristopher38> Invented as in?
L813[16:45:54]
<BrianH> he
designed the 6502 to be a $25 counter chip to compete with
Motorola's $300 68000.
L814[16:46:38]
<BrianH> we
was primary designer of the chip's architecture
L815[16:46:59]
<BrianH>

L816[16:47:36]
