#VIM_ALL_THE_THINGS !

:/ my pic microcontroller board is freakin out again

@SQuirel @Serg shut up already! ;p

XD

blegh

I'm feeling very sick

Good thing I did all my homework

BUT BLEGHHH

T_T my project is going down the drain

wai :(

I don't know. I send characters to my microcontroller board, but it receives garbage

@Zacharee1 there's been a bug going around..

really nasty one.

Have you trued using another computer? @Serg

@Seth I'm about 3000 miles away from where you live

And I think it's just because I got less than 6 hrs of sleep

@Zacharee1 it's a globalized world..

although I keep thinking your in Caly for some reason... -.-

yeah, but I don't think anyone on campus has been travelling :p

@Seth i iz not

I know I know..

i iz in teh rednek cuntree of teh nurth

aka pa

Why do Heath bars have to be so good?

I got a bag a week ago and I think I'm almost out :p

@Zacharee1 I've used all the computer I have. Raspberry,too. In fact it's supposed to communicate with raspberry

Honestly , i don't wanna go to class. I had this project working last time, now it makes me too depressed

@Serg and it works in Windows, right?

yeah

Have you tried another microcontroller?

And/or can you make the connection between the chip and computer any more direct?

That's the only one I have, and I don't have time to learn arduino serial

It's an Arduino?

PIC 18 F87J11

Is that what comes on Arduinos?

No, Arduinos use Atmel, if I'm not mistaken.

yeah, looks like

so what is this about Arduino serial then?

Serial is not about arduino, serial connection is just . . .supposed to be universal

I know there's some kind of setting borked, i just don't know which

hmm

Is there a reason you can't use some other chip?

@TheBrownOne lol

@Serg because the Esquilo board is pretty cool

kind of expensive, but very versatile

@TheBrownOne So you've joined the NCAA? ;p

@Zacharee1 the main reason is . . . it's week 16/16 . . . and final is next week . . .

ah

So you have a broken setting?

How does that work?

sounds like you had fun then :p

Yeah, that's why I don't exercise - that stuff is deadly :p

@Serg that's irony if I ever heard it

The only thing is that I don't get is . . . what is wrong with my settings ? Because clearly, I don't change anything special, the code is basic . . .

I give up

@TheBrownOne the whole point of my project was to interface Raspberry and PIC

0_0

There's putty for linux too I think.

yes there is

and i have the same effect there

yeah , I've been trying everything and anything

at this point it seems random

printf "\x61" > /dev/ttyACM0

This gives me fe in hex

python -c 'print("a")' > /dev/ttyACM0

that gives me 36 in hex
