Has anyone here assembled electronic kits? What with the soldering and whatnot?
I am building this: Pocket Piano Arduino Shield -- Electronic Musical Instrument Kit. Currently I'm soldering capacitors to the circuit board. I got four .1uF capacitors. On the circuit board, two of the places for these capacitors have a white box (with two vertical lines between the holes) printed surrounding the holes where the capacitors go. Two other places don't have the box with the lines (they just notate that the .1uF capacitors go there). Do the boxes with lines mean anything?
(There are two other capacitors, .01uF and 1uF. These also have the boxes printed around their holes.)
A group that I'm working with is looking at migrating our question/answer forum. We're currently using PunBB, and you can see the site at [link] We do have some techies, but we're looking for something that we might be able to add more plugins more easily, that is also easy to administer. Any suggestions? Thank you!!
I'm looking for a simple regex that will change a string containing a url into a string containing that url as a href link with the full url as the text of the link. Anyone?
libkitty, I use simple machines forum. It's very easy, has add-ons, and it's free.
Installed the compatibility patch to let my Word 2003/XP read Word 2007 files. Anyone have a random Word 2007 file they can shoot my way for testing? Profile addy good. Thanks - Gar
Netflix streams to my TiVo! Sometimes with audio synch problems, but still! I no longer have to watch on my PC only.
ita, is this something you set up on your Netflix account, or an update that popped up on your Tivo?
I think we're currently on too low a Netflix plan to qualify, and I'm not 100% sure my Series 2 machine would even support this if we did.
You are correct. I too have a Series 2 and I was dismayed I could not do this.
You need a Series 3 in order to have netflix streak on the Tivo.
