dzho | anyone using ubuntu mobile (or whatever it is called?) | 12:56 |
---|---|---|
* dzho tries to make a little conversation | 12:56 | |
thafreak | dzho: ubuntu touch isn't it called? | 14:48 |
thafreak | and no | 14:48 |
thafreak | not me atleast | 14:48 |
paultag | I was going to | 14:49 |
paultag | but no netflix | 14:49 |
paultag | so uh | 14:49 |
thafreak | oh you were going to use it instead of android | 14:55 |
thafreak | ? | 14:55 |
paultag | on a tablet | 14:56 |
paultag | but alas | 14:57 |
dzho | thafreak: ah, right. That's it. | 15:26 |
dzho | paultag: you sound like our household, except s/android/xbox/ and s/netflix/espn/ | 15:28 |
dzho | espn has sports programming locked up *tight* | 15:28 |
paultag | ah word | 15:28 |
dzho | it's the one strong cord from which the cable companies are dangling above the chasm of consumer indifference | 15:29 |
paultag | yeah totally | 15:29 |
paultag | I have a lot of kit for my tablet | 15:29 |
paultag | I have a Debian install in it | 15:29 |
paultag | so I can actually do work | 15:29 |
dzho | paultag: so, multi-boot? | 15:30 |
dzho | or, chroot? | 15:30 |
paultag | nack, it's a chroot | 15:30 |
* dzho nods | 15:30 | |
paultag | android can't multi-boot | 15:30 |
paultag | I wish it could | 15:30 |
paultag | I'd have to hack the initramfs | 15:30 |
paultag | or initrd | 15:30 |
dzho | yeah, lildebian sits forlornly, waiting for me to re-root this thing | 15:30 |
paultag | whatever it's called these days | 15:30 |
paultag | lil debi' is great | 15:30 |
paultag | my phone has one that I use via adb | 15:30 |
paultag | adb forward tcp:2017 tcp:22 | 15:30 |
dzho | there's a new one popped up on f-droid that I haven't tried because of the situation, either | 15:30 |
paultag | ssh localhost -p 2017 -l root | 15:30 |
dzho | hike! | 15:31 |
paultag | so I can do real debian development on it | 15:31 |
paultag | yeah, f-droid is nice | 15:31 |
paultag | I enjoy it | 15:31 |
paultag | but havn't tried much besides lil debi' | 15:31 |
dzho | paultag: you work with a physical usb keyboard then? | 15:31 |
paultag | yep | 15:31 |
paultag | with USB OTG for my tablet | 15:31 |
paultag | with my phone I use it via USB | 15:31 |
paultag | with a TCP forward to the sshd in the phone | 15:31 |
paultag | I have a bluetooth keyboard on the way for my phone and google glass | 15:32 |
paultag | but might use it for my tablet, since I have a dock and I want to use an external hard drive | 15:32 |
paultag | so I can put debian on the hdd, or even if not, at least put it on power when I use it | 15:32 |
dzho | http://thedianerehmshow.org/shows/2014-01-30/latest-trends-wearable-technology <-- old people talking about wearables | 15:35 |
jenni | [ The Latest Trends In Wearable Technology | The Diane Rehm Show from WAMU and NPR ] - https://j.mp/1jSucbZ | 15:35 |
paultag | yeah dude | 15:35 |
paultag | I love glass | 15:35 |
dzho | ( Rehm isn't as old as she sounds, I don't think. She suffered the same idiopathic voice loss thing that Scott Adams did, iirc, and clawed her way back to speaking on air) | 15:35 |
paultag | She's amazing. | 15:36 |
paultag | I listen to her nearly daily | 15:36 |
dzho | born in '36 according to wikipedia, fwiw | 15:36 |
dzho | "spasmodic dysphonia" | 15:37 |
dzho | anyway, I tend to hear her show occasionally while I'm driving around | 15:38 |
paultag | She's great. | 15:38 |
paultag | so moderate | 15:38 |
dzho | paultag: that you have glass leaves me very conflicted | 15:39 |
paultag | I got them to hack | 15:39 |
paultag | I got them rooted in 6 hours and had debian installed in 8 | 15:39 |
paultag | I also have been working on civic apps for glass, to help people engage with the legislative process | 15:40 |
paultag | even if they are all glassholes :> | 15:40 |
paultag | but I find myself really missing them when I don't have them on | 15:40 |
paultag | they're pretty darn spiffy | 15:40 |
dzho | that you're hacking them is totally the upside. | 15:40 |
dzho | that google has added " | 15:40 |
dzho | oops | 15:41 |
dzho | that google has added "don't fragment" language to their sdk license is a massive downside | 15:41 |
paultag | yeah totally | 15:41 |
paultag | replicant ftw | 15:41 |
dzho | yeah, that needs a lot of love, too. | 15:41 |
paultag | their logo is so barf | 15:42 |
dzho | I tried walking the tmo walk, just so we could have gsm phones that benefit from them being standards on which people can base their hacking. | 15:42 |
dzho | s/being/using/ | 15:42 |
jenni | dzho meant to say: I tried walking the tmo walk, just so we could have gsm phones that benefit from them using standards on which people can base their hacking. | 15:42 |
* dzho does a double take | 15:43 | |
paultag | hurm, let's see how smart jenni is | 15:43 |
paultag | foo bar baz foo | 15:43 |
paultag | s/foo/bar/ | 15:43 |
jenni | paultag meant to say: bar bar baz foo | 15:43 |
paultag | not bad | 15:43 |
paultag | foo bar baz foo | 15:43 |
paultag | s/foo/bar/g | 15:43 |
dzho | heh | 15:43 |
paultag | BBBBOOOOOOOOOO | 15:43 |
paultag | s/O/AAA/ | 15:43 |
paultag | jenni: oh come on | 15:43 |
paultag | listem to me | 15:43 |
paultag | s/me/you/ | 15:43 |
jenni | paultag: Yes yes. | 15:43 |
thafreak | so | 15:45 |
thafreak | aside from the wonders of wearables | 15:46 |
thafreak | anyone see there's a " | 15:46 |
thafreak | "fedoracoin" ? | 15:46 |
thafreak | but it's not linux oriented... | 15:46 |
thafreak | it was meant to be a tip...like i tip my fedora to you for your wise words, here's a fedoracoin | 15:46 |
paultag | I don't think we need more fedoras in Nerddom | 15:47 |
paultag | in fact, if nerds would stop wearing fedoras that would be great, m'kay | 15:47 |
dzho | EVERYONE IN WHITE BERETS NOW OKTHXBY | 15:50 |
thafreak | nah not berets | 15:54 |
thafreak | only hat i like is a ball cap.... | 15:54 |
thafreak | bot not these new ones with the perfectly flat brims | 15:54 |
thafreak | thosemake me angry | 15:54 |
dzho | h@ h8r | 16:31 |
* dzho hasn't seen this flat-brim thing | 16:31 | |
dzho | or rather, probably hasn't noticed | 16:32 |
