Did you remove the line of code that tells it not to stop after an hour?

Haha. I'll comment that line out later and try again :D

Loose connection I'm thinking. I had it running for about 5 hours last night, the lights had stopped flashing when I got back from the comedy club. Have it a tap and it came back on.

The new Pi Zero looks interesting.

Looks like I'll be buying some of those!

I'm sure I'll get some too, no idea what for yet.

They're giving one away free with the MagPi magazine, going to see if the local ASDA has one.

Oohh, I'll see if I can pick one up on the way home somewhere.

I finally have my wireless temp sensor on a circuit board. Messy, cables all over the place, but it works. Yay. Definitely more reliable than the breadboard version.

I dropped it on the floor while soldering and when I tried programming it didn't work. Thought I'd broken it but forgot I need a 16MHz crystal attached before I can set it to 4MHz using the built in clock. And then it still didn't work so I definitely thought I'd broken it but I had the USBasp connected incorrectly.

It's amazing how prolific, and easy to get started with, stuff like this is now. Love it.

Yes, they're awesome. And logs of fun :)

Next I want to design my own PCB so I can just solder all the components straight to a board, if they're not too expensive.

Can you show me logs of fun?

There's a place you can order PCBs for remarkably low cost, trying to remember what it's called...

I love the quizzical change in direction. Definitely looks like a log of fun.

Wonder if it was a no-wiper, too. That'd probably be the most satisfying shit ever.

That's about a 1/3 of my body weight.  I'd need to wear a belt after dropping something that size!
