dragonI'm ordering Raspberry Pis from Newark. Shipping cost is flat rate, so ordering more than one will essentially save on shipping.05:53
dragonIf you want one, ping me and I can order it for you!05:54

iheartubuntuciao06:31
nUboon2Agethe debian version on their website has lxde06:34
jyoI have ~8 Raspberry Pis on hand if anyone wants one.17:38
jyoThe OS is Raspbian, Debian ported for the ARMv6 hardfp.17:41
Darkwingjyo: How much?17:50

TorikunYo20:29
Torikunjyo: How can I get a pie =)20:30
dragonjyo: Can I have five of them?20:34
dragonAlways wanted my own cloud cluster.20:34
Torikundragon: what would you do with a cluster?20:36
TorikunCLusters do not really accomidate the home user20:36
TorikunUnless you like to process data, high-availability, or video processing20:38
TorikunI used to think a long time ago that if I had a cluster, I could make all my applications run faster......I was wrong....lol20:39
dragonThat's... an interesting question.20:40
dragonI don't know. I just want one.20:40
Torikunhahaah they seem cooler than they are20:40
dragon(hey, I'm not really creating a cluster of pies)20:40
TorikunI worked in the clustering business a few years now20:40
Torikunthe concept is better than reality lol20:40
dragonhaha that's true20:40
TorikunI would like a raspberry pi as a firewall and another as a media server20:41
pleia2at least it's not an x86 cluster, which you run at home because you like paying extra on your electric bill ;)20:41
TorikunTrue20:42
TorikunI made a program in java to batch process images for compression and videos for compression20:43
TorikunI used it about once .... all hype20:43

Torikunit basically takes a directory and gathers the files in it and sends it out to be processed on all the nodes20:44
pleia2no clusters, but it was insane20:44

TorikunI want it to replace my current media center..I got a wireless keyboard for it also. will be so sweet!20:49
pleia2my tv does all kinds of media stuff, so I can just serve stuff up from my desktop via upnp20:50
dragonpleia2: that setup in crazy.21:11
dragonHow much would it take to run an XMPP server? Can I do it on a Rasp Pi?21:11
dragonXMPP server being prosody.21:11
* dragon does some research.21:13
dragonGuess I'll have to try it out. Now if only I could setup failover with prosody.21:13
dragonOr use node-xmpp-server with redis backend.21:13
