Le Donjon de Naheulbeuk - La Couette de l'Oubli

Oyé oyé!

Ah! Ca faisait longtemps que je n'avais pas acheté un bouquin!!!
Et bien, je ne le regrette pas, au contraire, je le conseille vivement!

Lorsque le monde se trouve en passe d'être enveloppé par la Couette de l'Oubli Eternel du Dieu du Sommeil et de l'Ennui, Dlul, la plus grande compagnie d'aventuriers de la Terre de Fangh se met en route.
Grâce au Ranger, au Barbare bourrin, à l'Elfe et son charisme, la Magicienne et sa magie, l'Ogre et ses poings, et le Nain... euh... enfin le Nain, quoi, le monde pourra bientôt souffler... Quoique...

"La Couette de l'Oubli" est la suite des aventures audio du Donjon de Naheulbeuk, que je vous recommande fortement. Il s'agit d'une saga audio diffusée gratuitement par l'auteur, John Lang, ici: http://www.penofchaos.com. Donc, vous pouvez y aller, pas de remords à avoir. Ce serait étrange que vous n'en ayez pas au moins entendu parler, depuis 2000...
(Au passage, jetez un oeil sur les détournements vidéos... Notamment une sombre histoire de Pot-au-Feu, avec les images du Seigneur des Anneaux de Peter Jackson. Aragorn me ferait presque plus flipper que les Nazguls...)

Les rôlistes (adeptes des jeux de rôles) apprécieront beaucoup, les non-initiés aussi, c'est très amusant, et pas fermé du tout!

Bref, "La Couette de l'Oubli" va trouver sa place pas très loin du Seigneur des Anneaux dans ma bibiliothèque (eh vi, c'est pas le même genre, mais je groupe les bouquins que j'aime bien).

Bonne écoute puis bonne lecture à tous! Et mangez pas des Chiantos, hein ?!

Rebuild of a Solex carburettor 26AIC

I am always keen to rework old mechanical parts, not only to satisfy my thirst for knowledge but also for the pleasure to bring back to life an old thing long forgotten. In this article, we will review a Solex carburettor 26AIC. Here is the thing: I have been happy to discover that mobile parts were not seized :D A bit of history: This carburettor was initially fitted on Renault Juvaquatre (1938-39): Photo from Lars-Göran Lindgren (Sweden)/ Wikipedia Another variant exists for Peugeot 202 , with a slight difference however: on the top, the 26AIC for the Peugeot has two holes to attach a protector on top: The Solex 26AIC has also been used on this models: Standard Flying Eight Side Valve 1938-48 Reliant 3 Wheeler Regal 1952-58 Reliant Export 1952-62 And also on industrial engines: Coventry Climax FSM2 & FSM3 Engines 1939-49 That's all for the history bit for now, the next step is to strip it down! 😄 Stripping down t...

Which controller for this project?

Here we are... What are the criteria to choose the "good" controller? - Price of the IC => this one is not a problem, those components are just so... Cheap !! Oo' - Number of pins for this project - Easy to code, as it is a first for me - Size - Availability of the coding software & kit Regarding the size, the idea is to be able to program the controller and install it on the board, or install the controller on the board and upload the code. For this reason, I do not think Arduino is a good idea. Don't get me wrong, I don't say it is not good (I am not an expert) and I should give it a try for another project, just that it does not appear the best solution to have a stand-alone controller for this project without any interface/ intermediary card. Then we have mainly two options: PIC controllers from Microchip or AVR from Atmel. After having spent a long time reading different articles, comparatives, forums, etc etc... Well... Both solutions can...

Circuit architecture

Hello! This is the second post related to the Nixie clock project. Here we will set the architecture of our system. Basically, in order to have a proper clock, from end to start: #1: display device => Nixie tubes #2: cathode driver (in order to select the figure to display) => K555ID1 microchip #3: anode driver (in order to select the tube to switch on) => MPSA42 & MPSA92 #4: oscillator (quartz) #5: controller => PIC 16F1828 #6: interface for setting time on the clock #7: power supply (at least +170V are requested for the tubes and +5V for the different microchips) #3 is requested as we want to have multiplexed Nixie: Multiplexing Nixie means control several tubes with only 1 cathode driver (the straight design would request one driver per tube). This way, one chip will switch on the same cathode on 2 or more tubes. It is necessary then to select which tube to apply voltage on, through the anode driver. Circuit architecture can be summarised as follo...
