_bbb | i was gonna get another netbook so.. | 15:29 |
_bbb | what are you one of those resolution whores or something | 15:29 |
paultag | I want an x1-carbon | 15:29 |
snap-l | I want pixels, and lots of them | 15:30 |
_bbb | im not gonna pay alot for this muffler | 15:30 |
paultag | x1-carbon | 15:30 |
paultag | doesnt matter; have a carbon | 15:31 |
_bbb | looks nice | 15:31 |
paultag | different power adapt | 15:31 |
paultag | which pisses me off | 15:31 |
paultag | because I have like 8 of the regular thinkpad kind | 15:31 |
snap-l | I <3 my X120 | 15:31 |
paultag | I ♥ my t520i and t420s | 15:31 |
_bbb | i had an x100e sold it | 15:32 |
paultag | although I recently blew out my 520's USB bus | 15:32 |
paultag | so that no longer has USB ports | 15:32 |
_bbb | t60 and t42 on the floor behind me | 15:32 |
paultag | t42 is like the AK-47 of software developers | 15:33 |
_bbb | yeah i even got ssd in there | 15:33 |
paultag | nice. | 15:33 |
_bbb | pata | 15:33 |
_bbb | my wife has thinkpad edge or some shit | 15:35 |
_bbb | quality aint the same | 15:35 |
paultag | edge sucks | 15:35 |
paultag | go t* x* or go home | 15:35 |
paultag | L series is crap | 15:35 |
paultag | so is S | 15:35 |
_bbb | i think i still got two t21s in the attic somewhere | 15:36 |
paultag | x1-carbon might be my next computer if I can rationalize the charger | 15:36 |
_bbb | looted from apknet heh | 15:36 |
dzho | paultag: what's the deal with the charger? | 15:36 |
_bbb | Lenovo RapidCharge, for five hours? battery life on a 35-minute charge | 15:37 |
paultag | dzho: it's not the same plug thing | 15:37 |
_bbb | is it like you place it on a pad or whatever | 15:38 |
_bbb | like those new nokias | 15:38 |
_bbb | ? | 15:38 |
dzho | yeah, I guess the earlier ones are a bit big in diameter for the ultrabook form factor | 15:38 |
_bbb | all out of stock on newegg | 15:40 |
paultag | it's such a sexy machine | 15:40 |
dzho | I wish Lenovo dealt better with orgs like $EMPLOYER | 15:41 |
dzho | but apparently they won't even give you the time of day unless you tend to order more than $FIXNUM systems at a time | 15:41 |
dzho | and, we don't | 15:41 |
_bbb | hmm | 15:42 |
_bbb | yeah you can always find off lease | 15:42 |
paultag | I'm going to have to send my machine back to get it fixed | 15:43 |
paultag | but I don't wana. | 15:43 |
snap-l | heh | 15:43 |
paultag | I wonder if I can get MIT to fix it. | 15:43 |
snap-l | paultag: On-site repair. ;) | 15:43 |
paultag | it's a blown USB bus, snap-l :) | 15:43 |
paultag | I don't think they can on-site that | 15:43 |
snap-l | I think jcastro got Dell to do an onsite repair | 15:43 |
snap-l | Yeah, just bring a new mobo | 15:44 |
paultag | oh, no shit. | 15:44 |
snap-l | pop pop and you're don | 15:44 |
paultag | that would rock. | 15:44 |
snap-l | done | 15:44 |
snap-l | It may be extra $$ for the tech visit, but if you don't want to wait, it may be worth it | 15:44 |
snap-l | and I don't know how Lenovo handles on-site, or if they even offer it | 15:44 |
snap-l | but yeah, fixing the USB == replacing the mobo | 15:45 |
paultag | I'll walk down the road to MIT and see if their IT folks can fix it | 15:45 |
snap-l | nobody does onsite diagnostic like replacing reistors and stuff, it's usually a mobo swap | 15:45 |
paultag | well, it was 120v through the bus | 15:45 |
paultag | so, perhaps a transistor or two | 15:46 |
snap-l | Again, nobody does onsite diagnostic like replacing reistors and stuff, it's usually a mobo swap | 15:46 |
snap-l | ;) | 15:46 |
snap-l | DOn't make me use history keys again. ;) | 15:46 |
paultag | :) | 15:47 |
_bbb | who is going to olfacon | 15:47 |
paultag | I'm going to normal OLF if that's the same thing | 15:47 |
snap-l | Is that where folks smell each other? | 15:47 |
dzho | eww | 15:48 |
snap-l | A celebration of the nose (olfactory) | 15:48 |
_bbb | odoriferous emanations | 15:49 |
snap-l | I'm tentative for OLF. | 15:49 |
snap-l | Wife's dad is in the hospital, and this week he's either getting discharged or Lord knows what. | 15:50 |
dzho | best wishes with that, snap-l | 15:50 |
_bbb | yeah | 15:51 |
_bbb | just got a room at the hyatt since drury was full | 15:51 |
dzho | same here | 15:52 |
snap-l | dzho: Thanks. Hoping today gives some more clarity. | 15:52 |
_bbb | probably nicer anyway | 15:53 |
snap-l | drury is pretty sweet | 15:53 |
_bbb | im joel hyatt and you have my word on it | 15:53 |
_bbb | so | 15:54 |

dzho | _bbb: when? | 15:55 |
dzho | I don't know if there's anything Thu night. There is stuff on Friday. | 15:55 |
dzho | I think Thu night is "make your own fun" | 15:56 |
_bbb | i mean fri night | 15:56 |
dzho | slumber party | 15:56 |
_bbb | heh pajamas | 15:56 |
thafreak | pyjamas | 16:37 |
thafreak | lets put it this way...if there's no official olf pre-party | 16:37 |
thafreak | there will be an un-official loco party | 16:37 |
dzho | heh | 16:37 |
dzho | A PARTY WILL HAPPEN | 16:38 |
thafreak | I think taggypants said something about the hyatt having a bar, which was why he chose that hotel | 16:38 |
paultag | challah | 16:59 |
dzho | sourdough | 17:09 |
