|---|---|---|
| thafreak | dzho: well, regardless of how fractured the arm market is...I'll still be buying a $35 arm device | 15:03 |
| dzho | thafreak: no, I understand. I've got a couple of NSLU2's, after all. | 15:15 |
| thafreak | ha, yeah i have one...and a pogo plug | 15:15 |
| dzho | what irks me is that, in the face of hobbyist criticism, the Pi folk are all "but it's not *for* you guys" | 15:16 |
| dzho | when in fact, given the proprietary chunks that it'll take to run it, the support situation is going to be very much like that of the NSLU2 | 15:16 |
| dzho | which is to say, hacker-only support | 15:17 |
| thafreak | and may eventually just go away at some point | 15:17 |
| thafreak | yeah it's sad... | 15:17 |
| dzho | well, it'll be just like the NSLU2, whoever gets an itch to do someting and then write about it, will. | 15:17 |
| dzho | that'll never go away, as such, it'll just fade into "ooh, look at what I'm doing with my vintage Apple II" territory | 15:18 |
| thafreak | what do you have running on your nslu2 by the way? | 15:20 |
| dzho | well, I don't run them, they're too slow. | 15:27 |
| dzho | but when I did, Debian. | 15:27 |
| thafreak | which version, do you remember? | 15:28 |
| dzho | sorry, I don't | 15:28 |
| thafreak | where you able to run wheezy? | 15:28 |
| thafreak | k | 15:28 |
| dzho | haha, no | 15:28 |
| thafreak | i was going to re install mine | 15:28 |
| dzho | I don't even know if I got sarge on one | 15:28 |
| thafreak | and lenny is almost EOL'd | 15:28 |
| dzho | they switched the endianess of the arm architecture, or added an arch with the other endianess or something. | 15:29 |
| dzho | so, I installed the newer one on one of them. | 15:29 |
| dzho | well, on a usb flash drive attached to one of them. | 15:29 |
| dzho | you know, I almost wish they made usb keychain drives with dram | 15:30 |
| dzho | to mount up as swap | 15:30 |
| thafreak | i had an external hard drive attached to mine... | 15:31 |
| thafreak | so i had swap on it | 15:31 |
| dzho | did that for a short time, too | 15:31 |
| thafreak | and i had it at my moms house...but it seemed the thing would power itself off all the time | 15:31 |
| thafreak | wasn't real reliable | 15:31 |
| thafreak | could have been something my mom was doing to it though | 15:32 |
| dzho | heh | 15:32 |
| dzho | did ur mom pwn ur slug? | 15:32 |
| paultag | oh jees | 15:34 |
| paultag | I fall asleep and dzho goes nuts | 15:34 |
| paultag | /topic 15:32 < dzho> did ur mom pwn ur slug? | 15:34 |
| thafreak | possibly | 15:40 |
| * canthus13 yawns. | 16:37 | |
| dzho | paultag: all in good fun. I hope thafreak would raise an objecting if that went too far. | 17:38 |
| dzho | er, objection | 17:38 |
| paultag | :) | 17:45 |
