EDIT: I believe I have solved my problem. I had the black wire from the sensor plugged into the -3v rail instead of a gnd pin. I made the change to the gnd pin and the sensor works great.

Hi all, I have purchased a canakit ultimate kit recently and 5 DS18b20 sensors (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KUNKR3M?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00).

I am attempting to connect one sensor to the breadboard using the canakit T style breakout board.

Here is my setup

The sensor is not being recognized as I get folders starting with 00 instead of 28. I have done a lot of research and tried the following things one at a time:

So I need to new pc for gaming, software dev, netflix, reddit, everything else. I don't plan on doing anything too intensive other than gaming and even then I don't plan to push my gaming visuals to the limit. I have always avoided overclocking in the past because I was worried about wrecking parts and I still kinda am. I don't have the time to fool around with overclocking and changing voltages and doing all the enthusiasts things you guys love so much. I only have a few hours at home each night and I want to have something that will reliably play my games for the next few years.

I am kinda set on the processor, I had the i7 specced for a while but I don't think I will really need it doing

I was having a lot of socket disconnect errors during certain times of the day. I had done research and found that it was most likely a down stream router issue and there wasn't anything I could do about it. I also saw a lot of ppl on forums with the same problem. I found a fix that worked for me tho...connect using a different port. I hope this helps some ppl.

I only know of Cthulhu by name and pictures. I have no idea what his story is but it must be good because I see references to him all over reddit and other geek sites I visit. Is he from a book series? a DnD world? Sure I could wikipedia it but I want a reddit explanation please. Suggested reading?

I seem to always think about these things on Fridays.

I like to think that in the event of a nuclear war, zombie apocolypse, or natural disaster where technology and law are lost, I would be able to rise to power. Similar to Tina Turner's Bartertown in Beyond Thunderdome. I try to imagine how to prepare for such events. Such as stock piling water and food or weapons in an underground cache. Like everyone thought the guy hoarding old bike tires was a crazy, but now that the world went crazy he is the one running things because he was the only one that had rubber, or something like that. Lets get some ideas floating around.

Edit: on a side note. I also like to think about how I would escape

I have a few questions that I can't seem to find a definite answer to. 1a) How many spontaneous castings can I do in a day? 1b)Does it make sense to just prepare all non healing spells and then SC healing spells when I need them? 1c)Which spells can a chaotic good cleric cast? (besides non-evil spells like inflicts) 2)Currently I have been told that I need to do a concentration check, beating 10+spell lvl, to actually successfully cast the spell, even when nothing is near me or happening to me. Is that right? How do I go about casting if that is not he right way? Do I just say ok I'm casting Cure moderate wounds on this guy and then roll for how much I heal?

I have the players handbook 3.5

Ok, So I created a browser game that uses asp.net web page, a MySQL database, and Python scripts (for processing player actions). I have the asp.net and database hosted with GoDaddy (basic account). I really want to modify my scripts to be able to run on Google's app engine but I am currently using MySQLdb to talk to the database, and I don't think the app engine supports that. I don't think the app engine datastore will work for me. So currently I am running scripts locally on my computer and hitting a DB on the web. I realized this would be a problem last year but wanted to get it working the way I knew how, just to make sure it was practical and would work, now that it does work I want to

I just picked up the THQ pack from steam and now have all of the expansions. What I would like to know is if people still play these games. I know they don't have a starcraft following or anything. I haven't played anything past the first game back in college. Is there any kind of match making or online play besides the lan? suggestions or links to strats would be awesome too. I just want to start a chat about it. Thanks.

I have been away on business the last few months here and there. I come back to find that where I used to top the charts due to my amazing head shot accuracy (not true but not false) I am not in the middle of the board mostly. Did this get changed while I was away? Link if possible, thanks.
