That sucks, did you at least get some venison? (assuming it wasn't completely ruined)
Most states have laws that you have to call the sheriff or game warden first to get a carcass tag, but then it is legal.
That said, for a typical full body crash, the meat is severely damaged and most people will not eat it.
Exactly. When you hit a deer with a car, the organs get shredded and generally ruin even the unbruised meat.

Brings out the flavor imo

@thwr I just got the confirmation email for my CHIP and shields. I'll be comparing it to my RPi2 soon!
-
@travisdh1 let me know pls. I'm playing around a lot with odroids, cubox, pandaboards, bananapi's, beagleboards and others, depending on requirements. My preferred generic platform is the Raspberry Pi 2/3 at moment.

No PIC's?

@MattSpeller PIC too. Can't talk about the project due to NDA. Was something in civil avionics.
I don't like PICs anyway, bugs here and there and the design is a bit ugly, IMHO. I think Atmel's are generally better.
Renesas (former Mitsubishi Electronics)
R8C/M16C/M32C's on the other hand are great uC's. But you can't compare uC 's to Linux on ARM, they serve different purposes. -

Anyone even playing around in the space really should use a PIC at some point. Knowing history always helps, and they're still useful little guys.
-
@travisdh1 Agree on knowing history.
But do you still pickle all your meat because it was done this way in the past? Or are you using a fridge today? PIC isn't bad at all, I do just prefer something else today. The PIC in the example above wasn't my choice and the project suffered from it. Took me two or three more weeks to hack (and __inline) around some issues like the very limited stack size. Here's some good reading about it: http://embeddedgurus.com/stack-overflow/2009/04/pic-stack-overflow/

How many open source companies depend on dual licensing? The GPL makes useful dual licensing very hard since any GPL contributed code stops the second license and makes the whole thing GPL. Seems like the lawyers are grasping at straws to win sympathy.

5 Machines upgrade to Windows 10 - Dragon profiles copied back down and tested - holy crap that just sucks! what a time suck!

Just realized y'all are on vacation today, lazy bums

Lazy my butt,... er... well sorta..
No, Fixed a full breakfast,.. Bacon, Eggs, Biscuits and gravy. That done,.. I've hacked up an old Cell phone battery to a LI charger, Replaced some lamps in the truck, and just took the dash out.
This is preliminary to replacing the stock radio/6disk changer with a RPi and a SDR ... Also play to relocate the Kenwook d7100 and GPS antenna. Still working on routing and fabrication for a VHF/UHF antenna to use the fold over mast I have.
While I am at it,.. several dash lights are out, might flip them for LED replacements.

Curious to know more about the arrangement... and what SDR you chose / why.

Ah, that's no magic at all. RTL-SDR with adrbox (dump1090 before) and a cheap DVB-T USB receiver. Pi-A (behind the touchscreen) is decoding ADS-B. Additionally, it acts as HTTP and VNC server. Pi-B grabs the VNC stream and does a little upscaling.
VNC is in use for a simple reason: I can catch any disconnects and restart the VNC client. That's way harder to accomplish with a browser. At least in the short amount of time I had to build this (roughly two days)
I'll post some instructions on my blog next week.

@gjacobse As for why adrbox: Great interface, good performance. Backend is the same between dump1090 and adrbox: rtlsdr.
