tschak909 Posted January 2, 2020 Author Share Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) Again, I ask the same question. Are @Kyle22 and @AtariGeezer the same person? And furthermore, I am calling attention to some _Very_ cagey behavior on behalf of @AtariGeezer. This project, has been, since day zero, PUBLIC. (In some ways, maybe a bit too public, as the twitter log that some have seen can demonstrate) But it shows, that none of us working on #FujiNet are holding back anything. Virtually every single test done so far, is in the github repo. (This includes CIO handler work on the N: device.. tests/cioN) Every single attempt, every success, every single mistake. Why? Because it's more important for those of us working together to impart this knowledge, and all of these mistakes and successes onto the work that others will do in the future. This to me is what's most important. And I have _NO_ time.. ZERO.. time, or patience, for people who feel they need to have "secret" knowledge, which, in my opinion masks deep seated insecurities in one's self, and one's sense of self worth. I have spent too much of my life, dealing with people who use this as a fulcrum of power and advantage. If that's how you want to play the game, Go on, and play your game with someone else, we will be here trying to make something together. -Thom Edited January 2, 2020 by tschak909 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stephen Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 This is not a nice start to 2020. However, it proves me correct. This entire decade I am fucking OWNING now, and naming it forever more - "The Flaming 20's.". I own this trademark now, so beware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Stephen Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I dunno man - I've said way too many things in the past I regret. I don't want any more fights - I am getting to the age of knowing better. I don't want any more fights - just more cool new collaborations. So I am not stepping into this one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tschak909 Posted January 2, 2020 Author Share Posted January 2, 2020 I'm trying to stop chains from being jerked around here, by making it clear that people who hold stuff back, especially after promising to share, after hardware has been sent to them, is inexcusable. -Thom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozzwald Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I'm gunna throw my 2 cents in here and be done with this argument.. I sent a FujiNet board to @AtariGeezer under the condition that he 'contribute' to the project which is open ended request. I assumed he would start releasing his code immediately as it sounds like it's working well, but he wants to wait until its complete. I can't make anyone do anything so we'll just have to wait until it's ready. Until then, I/we will continue to work on the currently open code. That's enough about that from me. Over the past few days I've been working on modem emulation for BBSing. In the FujiNet github repo I've added 2 different modem tests: esp32/tests/modem and esp32/tests/modem850. The first is working with both the esp8266 and esp32 but requires you to type 'f' RETURN in the terminal to enable modem mode after booting into BobTerm. The second test emulates an 850 and just works in the terminal. Problem with the 850 emulation test is that it's not working on the esp8266, only the esp32 and I'm not sure why. It appears to be a problem with the command frame parsing. The test will not even boot with the esp8266. Any suggestions are welcome. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Robot Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 A lot of older people, especially Americans, struggle with the idea of open source. Sharing your work with others sounds too much like socialism and that's just communism under another name. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waltermixxx Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) I love this project, you guys are doing an awesome thing. I've ordered a couple of ESP32 Dev boards, and looking forward to building an internal fujinet, I think. I currently have a couple of the standard ESP8266 boards, but I think i want to use the ESP32 instead. keep up the good work folks, I will be happy to post pics of my install and any questions or issues along the way. Which brings me to my first question, is it ok to simply solder to the required pins of the SIO connector on the motherboard (using the current schematic, not directly to the ESP32, sorry if that was not clear), so as to avoid having to build an enclosure, and figure out physical connection issues (excellent details on DIY here, but I'm still hoping to just stick it to the inside of the top portion of the case, outside of the RF shield. at any rate once again folks, this is awesome. Also quick note, I listened to "Antic, the Atari 8bit Podcast Episode 63" that has a great interview with Thom. excellent excellent information in that interview.

The pinout for the ESP32 FujiNet isn't the same as the ESP8266 so make sure you use the correct one (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qEPPM3-gqzfHsogJYuVXqhbvSSsgxdQMb_KGfpoV9KI). You could make it internal, although it might be more trouble than it's worth at this point until the firmware get's more polished. You'll need access to the USB port for upgrading firmware. If you do go ahead with the internal, I'd love to see photos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waltermixxx Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) Thanks for the link :). Yeah your right, I would have to make it accessible, to take advantage of the updates as they come. Could it be reflashed via bluetooth? I think the ESP32 has bluetooth built in? (one would still require access to the FLash button though so perhaps a mute point. ...) or just keep the 800xl lid unscrewed so to speak with the interface taped to the inside cover... I really need to give this all more thought. either way I'm excited, and I will be purchasing at least two of the final product when they are ready. Cheers.

It is possible to flash with wifi, not sure about bluetooth (probably). This has not been implemented yet but the plan eventually is to push updates over wifi/internet.

Thank you @Bee you will need to reference this, to get the appropriate pin-out: (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qEPPM3-gqzfHsogJYuVXqhbvSSsgxdQMb_KGfpoV9KI) Right now, the ESP32 version is still having lots of timing issues that need to be resolved with the UART connected to SIO, if you can help there, please do. -Thom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tschak909 Posted January 3, 2020 Author Share Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) My code is in the repo, where's yours? (Yes, this includes the BBS, it's all there, for somebody to pick up, should they wish. Where's yours?) I've written TWO DOZEN ports of PLATOTERM, all in C, across two dozen different vintage computing platforms? What have you done lately? Seriously, dude, WTF is wrong with you? You yank @mozzwald's chain to get some hardware, and then you start withholding code based on MY output? (which is absolutely insane, because, if you'd bother actually checking the commit logs of the repository, you'd see that I've been consistently writing code for the last two months flat on this project, averaging a set of commits every 2-3 days.) I'm angry and calling you out, because you're wasting our collective time by acting like you have some sort of leverage. Go away, you sad, pathetic little man. -Thom Edited January 3, 2020 by tschak909 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
