[12:56] <dzho> anyone using ubuntu mobile (or whatever it is called?)
[12:56]  * dzho tries to make a little conversation
[14:48] <thafreak> dzho: ubuntu touch isn't it called?
[14:48] <thafreak> and no
[14:48] <thafreak> not me atleast
[14:49] <paultag> I was going to
[14:49] <paultag> but no netflix
[14:49] <paultag> so uh
[14:55] <thafreak> oh you were going to use it instead of android
[14:55] <thafreak> ?
[14:56] <paultag> on a tablet
[14:57] <paultag> but alas
[15:26] <dzho> thafreak: ah, right.  That's it.
[15:28] <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
[15:29] <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
[15:30] <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
[15:31] <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
[15:32] <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
[15:35] <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)
[15:36] <paultag> She's amazing.
[15:36] <paultag> I listen to her nearly daily
[15:36] <dzho> born in '36 according to wikipedia, fwiw
[15:37] <dzho> "spasmodic dysphonia"
[15:38] <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
[15:39] <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
[15:40] <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 "
[15:41] <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.
[15:42] <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.
[15:43]  * 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.
[15:45] <thafreak> so
[15:46] <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
[15:47] <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
[15:50] <dzho> EVERYONE IN WHITE BERETS NOW OKTHXBY
[15:54] <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
[16:31] <dzho> h@ h8r
[16:31]  * dzho hasn't seen this flat-brim thing
[16:32] <dzho> or rather, probably hasn't noticed
