Temperature Monitoring

I have been playing with Arduino board for the paste few days, today I managed to solder my new 16x2 LCD to the pins and give it a test drive using cheap LM35 temperature monitoring to report the current Celsius and Fahrenheit degrees on the screen, the code is a merge and modification of LCD connection project and the simple temperature project Enjoy the code :)

Arduino motion detection sensor

I have been willing to start playing with electronics for some time, now I have some free time and I have decided to go for it :-) I got Arduino board, bread board, some jumper cables, lots of resistors, and I built my own 1st serial IR receiver for Linux.

We Are Back !

Remember Remember V

This year I had doubts about writing this post, since the 4th of November and I am thinking, it is worth it to evaluate my life ? it is worth to write shitty crappy post about crappy life ? what is the point ? but after more than 2 weeks I decided to write it just for the records, may be some day it will help me realize something I was missing.

Geeky outing

Few days ago, we decided to go out for a full hang-out day, started by normal work day to having our Ramdan breakfast in alprince embaba, to some refreshment at a coffee shop, to horses riding near Giza pyramids and ended up with swimming at a pool to be home at 7:00AM the next day, the nice thing is 3 of us did wear a very geeky t-shirts without prior notice :) so we have the geek, the math nerd and the 1337 ;)

Egypt New Geeky Government

Today I was tweeting and wishing that the next president of Egypt will be a true FLOSS / open source related geek and aware with the benefits that the country will gain from using and migrating to free/open source software and hardware.

Back Online

My coffee

I used to drink some nice Turkish coffee around 3:00 AM in the morning alone in the balcony, winter night looking to the sky, feels the cold air on my face and thinking about my next steps, I always did that when I needed to think, for some reason this setup gives u the feeling like you own the world, and ur alone in it , it is all yours, so when you feel it is all yours u start to think / act based on that idea , then the rest is achieving what u had in mind.

Remember Remember IV

Again, as they say "History repeats himself".I am poisoning the Internet with my stories in the same of the year, the 5th of November, but this time it will even be shorter, because nothing has changed, everything is almost pretty much the same. I think that is good and bad, but what the hack leave it that way for now. ----EOT----
