I have finally gotten my new install of windows to recognise my new additional SSD. It appears as unallocated in "Disk 1" in disk management. So guys, what do I do to make it active?

hi /g/, pls help

I have a SparkFun Simblee BLE Breakout - RFD77101

it's an arduino microcontroller with bluetooth module built-in

i also have an attachment that i can use to program the arduino microcontroller via serial port.

i'm trying to get it so that i can read data off the analog input pins and then transmit the data using the bluetooth module to my PC (which has a bluetooth antenna).

I'm writing an arduino program to upload to the arduino microcontroller to do this, and I'm also writing a Java program in Processing IDE to run on the PC's end that will get the data from the PC's bluetooth antenna and then it plots it in a window.

Basically I'm having trouble finding code for the arduino and Java programs to allow the arduino and PC to communicate via bluetooth.

I know there is a package simbleeCOM, and the simblee website gives example code that doesn't even compile properly (not sure if the syntax is incompatible with newer versions of Arduino or what). That, and I can't find Java code for Processing to complement it (read the data sent to the PC's bluetooth antenna to do stuff with).

I am just wondering if anyone on /g/ is aware of any tutorials or has any suggestions for what I'm trying to do.

Any advice would be appreciated.

lastly, there's these 2 lines of code I don't fully understand:

char payload[] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 };
SimbleeCOM.send(payload, sizeof(payload));

any idea what it's sending with these? I don't really understand what setting a char type variable equal to a number (not in single quotes aka not '1' but 1) does. I've never defined a char like that. And all I'm trying to do is send the value on the analog input pins of the simblee arduino board to my PC via bluetooth

Thanks in advance, /g/.

Hey /g/ looking for a budget Hi-Fi set up. Was looking into these speakers:

Are they any good? Post me some other alternatives.

So... any decent cloud services these days?
Haven't had any use for them the past year or so so not really in the game anymore.

Did a little research and found that MEGA seems to be the best choice. Both lots of space and encrypting my shit. However, does it sync flawlessly like Dropbox or is it shit?
Automatic, 'fast' syncing is quite important. Tried Google Drive some years ago and it was utter shit on Windows. Had to restart the entire program every time I wanted it to sync.

None of the alternatives seem very good sadly. pCloud: no free encryption. Google Drive: yeh, let me give you all my files and have you trawl through it. Dropbox: too little space and does it still have security issues? OneDrive: either I messed up or it writes like mad to my SSD for no reason. Also poor Linux support.

Oh yeh, big plus if it is cross-platform. Running Linux myself but not everybody is... those bastards.

I need a macro to simulate multiple key depressions in one press. For what I need, just holding the key doesn't do any good.

Suggestions?

Looking for a new case, and need some recommendations for a simple conservative ATX case that's not fuckhuge or cheap looking. I quite like the look of the Corsair Carbide series, but would like to keep the price under $100, plus I've read that the 400C is a bitch to cable manage.

I have an the PGS Hardcore early bird pledge on my account. I backed it as a placeholder to see if anything else will come in the 30 days, it's been 20 and no updates about the legitimacy of this thing. I'm unbacking it and should open one spot for the Hardcore Early Bird, if anyone wants it. Just tell me if you want it, and I'll unback, so you can get to the spot first.
