Pachube Feed - Uptime
Today I wrote a script for testing my ISP connection uptime. I created a pachube feed to make it visual!
createViz(25662,"101",800,400,"FF0066");
the above graph shows a ping of my ISP`s gateway acces time in miliseconds
You can find all my feeds HERE!

Santa bought me a weather station (an Oregon clone) this year. Since I bought an Arduino, my interest in electronics has expanded a lot聽 :) . I wanted to know if I could monitor the signal and fetch the data send to the weather console. Searching the internet I found this article.
[Update 23-08-2011]
Finally found some time to continue this project!
Here are some links about decoding the auriol`s data protocol:
pdf describing the data protocol of the auriol station
...and so more information about the decoding and interfacing :
Arduino Forum about ariol decoding: http://www.arduino.cc/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1289953701/all
The auriol weather station even got his own forum:http://forum.auriolws.info/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=28
Appearantly the Auriol h13726 is identical to Ventus W155 聽and Hawa EWS 1500:

A few weeks ago AMD released the Radeon HD 6970 and Radeon HD 6950. Both cards are based on AMD's new Cayman core which is their first graphics processor to use a VLIW4 shader configuration. Just like on all other similar products, AMD's two Cayman variants, called Cayman Pro and Cayman XT, are based on the exact same GPU silicon. The model variant a GPU chip becomes is decided after the die is produced, at some point before it is put on the card. Creating new SKUs from the same silicon by locking features has been common practice in the industry since at least the Radeon 9500 in 2002.

GPU Performance,Power Usage and Prices overview 12-2010
The C`T is a monthly (dutch/german) IT-magazine, in this month issue there`s a topic about choosing the right configuration if you are buying a new PC ( or upgrade the old one). They discus the different components in a PC and provide the reader with a summary of the latest available hardware, its features and performance.
One of the subjects is a comparison about the differences (feature set, power usage and performance) between GPUs. I`ve taken the liberty to made this information digitally available to you :-)
Below is a small publication of the latest GPUs sorted by 3D mark advandage points (highest first).
Table ( click on the picture for full view):

Just to make you conveniant; I generated some "openoffice calc graphs" for you viewing pleasure.

WDTY`s stuck-on-repeat mp3 of the moment:
Channel Zero - Lonely ,聽 Live At The Ancienne Belgique (04:09)
Channel Zero, the best metal band that Belgium has ever known, is back with a bang! Never before has a band sold out the main hall of the AB 6x in a row, at least 12,000 people will experience the comeback of Belgium&x27;s best metal band. 20 Years after their establishment and with 5 albums to choose from, singer Franky DSVD, drumming force Phil B and bassist Tino De Martino shall surely shake the AB to its foundations. Original guitarist Xavier Carion won&x27;t be taking part, due to a traumatized ear, but will be replaced by impressive international Mikey Doling (ex-Soulfly).

Check out my friend`s band on Myspace
Bio:
Reason to Kill found life early 2005. With nothing but experienced members in the squad, this band is ready to bring the music to you. Brutal songs and an astonishing live performance, influenced by bands such as Machine Head, Killswitch Engage, E-town Concrete and Soilwork. .... After the release of their demo EP 'Newborn Tragedy' in March 2006, the band quickly established a solid live performance. This resulted in several live shows through The Netherlands and Belgium.....
