Can we agree, for the purposes of this thread, that the MS is, in some ways,a bit like a cat?

there's a MS3x in a box in my car right now; it does nothing for me. a cat in a box in my car would melt me (if it hadn't already melted first).

I remember reading a bunch of Fredio54's posts on FreeEMS over on mx6.com, which was his home base for quite some time.

I remember being mildly intrigued, then horrified at how far i had to nerd out just to understand 20% of what was being talked about.

And at that point decided that something like that just wasn't for me.

Dammit, you were supposed to say YES so that I could issue an infraction to Soviet for Feline Disrespect.

Сomrade, you should at least read my source code and PM me your thoughts

Wow. Can you PM me a screenshot?
Never mind, I've located a look-up tool and I am in fact in "sex" category! I guess they got aroused by the word "stimulator"

I think a true open source ECU sounds great, the license on the MegaSquirt is far from open.

I know, everyone was waiting for a video where the car would be actually moving, right?

And now it's a true standalone, even with a connector

Status update: within the next couple days I am ordering a first revision on the unified board:



This would be be a step forward from the current mess

Once I test the board I would be really desperate for beta testers

Well done russian, your work is inspirational. Obviously you have talent in spades.
Most people could assemble a kit ecu where as very few have what it takes to design one. I would be happy to be a beta tester.
