| GabydeWilde_ | I have lots of business ideas but people just don't understand what the point is, investors and customers alike lol
|
| UukGoblin | oh, and with regards to what you've written about c64 days... I don't have much trouble with finding stuff, I've already made kind of a prototype on a breadboard using PIC microcontrollers and arduinos, got arduino to communicate with PC via USB, and I've written most of the code for PIC already
|
| GabydeWilde_ | if it takes me a day to explain something to one person the whole project stops making sense to me
|
| GabydeWilde_ | nice
|
| GabydeWilde_ | did you think about turning it into a product?
|
| UukGoblin | yes
|
| UukGoblin | it requires some modifications if you want to sell it, like getting rid of the wires and similar
|
| UukGoblin | people love wireless these days
|
| UukGoblin | but first, we need to get it working for ourselves
|
| GabydeWilde_ | have some chick record status messages with the actions :-)
|
| GabydeWilde_ | add some echo effect to it
|
| UukGoblin | yeah ;-)
|
| UukGoblin | like GLaDoS ;-)
|
| GabydeWilde_ | howabout doing a video resume?
|
| GabydeWilde_ | :D
|
| UukGoblin | for the home, I was thinking of using r2d2 sounds and learning them
|
| GabydeWilde_ | I have lots of ideas for such a system.
|
| GabydeWilde_ | for 10 million I will help you. No payment dealine :D
|
| UukGoblin | heheh
|
| GabydeWilde_ | deathline
|
| UukGoblin | I doubt this sort of thing would make 10M
|
| UukGoblin | there's competition on the market already
|
| GabydeWilde_ | nah, I'm not impressed with anyones work
|
| UukGoblin | x10 is pretty ok I think
|
| GabydeWilde_ | [link]
|
| GabydeWilde_ | there, debunked you good :)
|
| GabydeWilde_ | UukGoblin: [link] ^_^
|
| GabydeWilde_ | what is there not to like about those?
|
| GabydeWilde_ | lets build it like this !! : [link]
|
| GabydeWilde_ | [link]
|
| GabydeWilde_ | imagine the total awesomness of such a system
|
| UukGoblin | GabydeWilde_, that's why I don't want too much wireless at home
|
| GabydeWilde_ | lets not use any electricity where we don't have to
|
| GabydeWilde_ | you doubt about the 10 million but what do you think things like this cost? [link]
|
| UukGoblin | well I agree, but I do need it in a lot of cases
|
| UukGoblin | heheh
|
| GabydeWilde_ | we can use flexible axels to wind up our clockwork powerpacks
|
| UukGoblin | also, I'd rather use lasers for long-range wifi rather than EM, but they're really fucking expensive ;-)
|
| GabydeWilde_ | check out my tech level : [link]
|
| GabydeWilde_ | :P
|
| GabydeWilde_ | for remote control we use this: [link]
|
| GabydeWilde_ | very mature technology :D
|
| UukGoblin | GabydeWilde_, you do know that chips exist already that extract minuscule amounts of energy from all of these at the same time?: vibrations, background EM, temperature gradients and something else I don't remember
|
| UukGoblin | hahah
|
| UukGoblin | light
|
| GabydeWilde_ | that is what real nerds want
|
| UukGoblin | instead of EM, use infrared
|
| GabydeWilde_ | for remote controls, yes
|
| UukGoblin | oh
|
| UukGoblin | I see your point
|
| GabydeWilde_ | technically it is called steampunk and it is very expensive but the billionairs love it :)
|
| GabydeWilde_ | [link]
|
| GabydeWilde_ | infomercial time
|
| UukGoblin | sounds cool ;-]
|
| GabydeWilde_ | you want one
|
| UukGoblin | let me know if you find a customer
|
| GabydeWilde_ | :)
|
| GabydeWilde_ | [link]
|
| GabydeWilde_ | sold out
|
| GabydeWilde_ | $1,666.67 [link]
|
| UukGoblin | 'infallible aether oscillators'?
|
| GabydeWilde_ | that is what rich people want
|
| GabydeWilde_ | if we offer a fully outomated house using clockwork technologies we will be soled out till end of time
|
| UukGoblin | interesting idea
|
| GabydeWilde_ | picture it anouncing it is now closing the curtains: [link]
|
| UukGoblin | but I really don't know yet how to get rid of electronics ;-)
|
| UukGoblin | heheh
|
| GabydeWilde_ | priceless experience
|
| GabydeWilde_ | never seases to be funny either
|
| GabydeWilde_ | we can just sell components made by steam punk artists and cut off our margines :)
|
| UukGoblin | it is theoretically doable
|
| UukGoblin | it will be fucking noisy though
|
| GabydeWilde_ | [link]
|
| GabydeWilde_ | :)
|
| GabydeWilde_ | we have super smooth synthetic bearings nowadays
|
| UukGoblin | hm
|
| GabydeWilde_ | [link]
|
| GabydeWilde_ | coefficient of friction - 0,003 - 0,007
|
| GabydeWilde_ | lol
|

I told you people don't understand the awesomeness of my ideas.
