| cheri703 | hey, raspi owners: where did you buy yours? | 00:23 |
|---|---|---|
| cheri703 | my brother wants one but doesn't want all of the starter kit junk that comes with it from adafruit | 00:23 |
| paultag | I bought mine very early so it was from some UK vendor | 00:46 |
| paultag | I'd bet there are better ones now | 00:46 |
| cheri703 | hehe, yeah, I found like 3 for him | 00:47 |
| cheri703 | he was like "aaargh!" | 00:47 |
| cheri703 | also: as he said "this is the WORST IDEA EVER" because basically anyone who plugs their computer into random storage drives deserves what they get: http://www.wimp.com/offlinenetwork/ | 00:47 |
| paultag | Ah man. | 00:50 |
| paultag | I mean, it's true | 00:50 |
| cheri703 | yeah... | 00:58 |
| cheri703 | that's like (apologies for the non-family friendly example) the computer equivalent of a glory hole :s | 00:58 |
| cheri703 | paultag: are you familiar with openwrt? | 00:59 |
| paultag | not really | 00:59 |
| paultag | but I know of it :) | 00:59 |

| cheri703 | so I've installed 12.10 on my desktop, and I am getting repeated "system errors" from various things. None have been the same thing twice. Also my mouse config and xbindkeys refuse to work :( Not sure what's up. | 03:42 |
| cheri703 | I was getting the random system errors occasionally with 12.04, but I've had like 6 in the past hour | 03:42 |
| thafreak | So my second (and newer version) raspberry pi finally arrived from overseas... | 16:40 |
| thafreak | also, the cases I ordered with it finally came...they're awesome! | 16:40 |
| thafreak | Since I have two now I started trying out things like raspbmc | 16:41 |
| thafreak | I didn't get very far though... | 16:41 |
| thafreak | wife actually wanted to see me since I had put in over 19hours straight at work the previous days | 16:41 |
| thafreak | Hey, anyone think buying refurbished hard drives is a bad idea? | 16:42 |
| thafreak | At work, our storage array has a failing drive or two... | 16:43 |
| thafreak | if we get refurbished drives, I can buy 2x as many and have cold spares... | 16:43 |
| thafreak | just not sure if I should trust refurb drives. | 16:43 |
| thafreak | nm...the reviews have scared me off :) | 16:45 |
| thafreak | guess we'll just get one cold spare :) | 16:45 |

| thafreak | Just realized something...I paid $28 for an older stick of 2GB DDR2, and also paid $28 for an 8GB DDR3 kit (2x4GB) | 21:48 |
| thafreak | geez...never try to by older ram | 21:49 |
| thafreak | why it's almost cheaper to throw away old hardware | 21:49 |
