I'm starting a new programming project. Most of my projects are always a work in progress .I've got a bunch i'm stuck on.A game, a diagnostics program,some electronic circuits I've had on the drawing board for years. This is a program about work in progress. I sort of got into a flame about how some people go around the web telling people their ideas won't work. Sometimes this is a good thing except when the only obstacle to completing the idea is motivation. If you don't want to help ,don't help.

I'm bored so I thought I would blog something.I hope people didn't think I was harsh with hackaday.I was just hoping that my idea would take off ,since I'm not able to complete it.I'm just a hobbyist ,I have hardly any work experience with either hardware or software.I was thinking about something I said in my last entry .About the operating system on a cell phone.I remember in the movie hackers III about Kevin Mitnik .He got a code to punch in to a cellphone to turn it into a scanner.Could you imagine what you could do with the source code to the entire operating system?I was thinking and I'm not sure if many of my ideas would be possible.Some of them would depend on hardware.I can think of like 20 things you might be able to do that you can't now.I'll let you use your own imagination on that subject.I'm frikken bored and if nobody replies these are all suitable topics for general discussion.which reminds me.How does someone miss the forums link ,but somehow find the elusive "new blog entry" link?I am using the blog correectly ,aren't I.

If your reading this from hackaday it's because I submitted my idea 2 days ago the link to my idea is in my last entry.You know I hope I'm not becomoing one of my weird uncles.I KEEP TELLING PEOPLE MY IDEA AND NOBODY RESPONDS.Come on guys is this a good idea or am I just strange enough to think it is.I don't want a camera staring through the windows to my soul do you?If you don't follow how this works let me elaborate .Each sensor is activated by the presence of your pupil .At least in my version there is no analog readings only on/off whenever the pupil reflects the beam.Think popup menus or

Another of my unfinished ideas.Mostly because I don't have equipment such as an oscilloscope.The site I posted on didn't give it much traffic so I'm posting a link here .
It's so simple ,and cheap.Maybe some day I will build a working circuit with some help.

My latest obsession,Blender.
If I knew it was such a great program I would have voted for it .
But Gimp is pretty great too .
Blender and Gimp go together like ,um ,two things that go together.
Anyway , if you have time to waste ,try blender.
I even found some video tutorials for it!
Just thought I would blog this instead of ranting about it in general.:-)

I have a lot of unfinished projects lately .
I usually start a project out of neccesity ,but sometimes just because I get a good idea.
I recently finished a text version of "Clue" the game just to show my daughter I could.
My last project involving a parallel port logic analyzer turned out to be more trouble than I thought.
At least I am learning .
My unfinished game was started about 5 years ago and has been put on hold for now.
It is harder to learn by trial and error than by question and answer.
I eventually return to most of my projects.
That is why a new project usually leads to new questions.

The electronics hobby seems to have died down since everything became disposable.I have built the LIRC and NOPPP .I recently installed Ktechlab 0.3 .I am a novice to PIC programming and assembly code,but I was able to simulate a working PIC circuit in a few minutes.PICs have been around for what?Ten years or so?They don't seem to be disapearing .
I would like to see the success of open source hardware and open source PIC software.I have a good electronic circuit,really part of a circuit.But I am worried about about someone trying to patent it themself if I show someone how it works.We need a

Just needed to vent some stuff.
Why is there no date on these blog entries ?where is the beginning and where is the end?
The internet will end in 2006 a guy said so 2 years ago on slashdot.
Microsoft security is a matter of national security.
Bill Gates isn't a bad guy .
Windows is like training wheels for linux.
Anyone see the movie Pirates of silicon valley?
Is posting a screenshot of a movie a violation of copyright?
If we get more newbs like me maybe manufacturers will start making open source drivers.
How about a "last word rule" so the thread starter has to have the last post ?
