[13:14] <brousch> cmaloney: How's the OLF hangover?
[13:15] <cmaloney> Fine. I took today off
[13:15] <cmaloney> J has the day off as well so we're going to play together.
[13:17] <cmaloney> bbiab
[13:20] <brousch> TMI
[13:27] <jrwren_> sounds fun!

[13:27] <brousch> mrgoodcat: The bot fell asleep
[13:32] <rick_h_> morning
[13:33] <brousch> yes
[13:35] <mrgoodcat> of course it did
[13:36] <rick_h_> morn from boston
[13:37] <mrgoodcat> .echo test
[13:37] <bookiebot> test
[13:37] <mrgoodcat> morn from detroit
[13:38] <mrgoodcat> brousch: i think a competing rpi focused OS would be great
[13:38] <mrgoodcat> although you'd have a hard time beating the performace of Arch on the pi
[13:38] <brousch> You can run android on it
[13:39] <mrgoodcat> not sure i would though...
[13:39] <mrgoodcat> i'd be happier with chromeos on it than android
[13:39] <mrgoodcat> idk which is more resource friendly though
[20:05] <smoser> jcastro, hard to not want one of thsee http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GDQ0RMG/ref=br_imp_ara-1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=desktop-hero-1&pf_rd_r=1M5DMYY52Q6JD8TWNC1X&pf_rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=1958528642&pf_rd_i=desktop
[20:05] <bookiebot> http://goo.gl/CcDAqh - Fire TV Stick - Official Site - Shop Now
[20:05] <smoser> they're $19 for prime members 2 days only
[20:06] <jrwren_> i ordered already.
[20:06] <jrwren_> $19 is in my realm of no brainer.
[20:07] <jrwren_> on my pre-order it says "Release date: Wednesday, November 19, 2014"
[20:07] <jrwren_> so it will be a few weeks before it is delivered.
[20:09] <brousch> So can you chromecast to it?
[20:11] <jcastro> smoser, I have a firetv already
[20:11] <jcastro> which I am selling if anyone is interested!
[20:13] <smoser> i doubt you can chromecast to it.
[20:14] <smoser> if it buffers instant streaming... its a win.
[20:14] <smoser> the roku is painful to watch amazon instant on .
[20:15] <jcastro> that's because your roku is a non-3, which were horribly slow
[20:15] <smoser> does yoru roku-3 buffer?
[20:15] <smoser> thats my problem.
[20:15] <smoser> i think/
[20:15] <smoser> ie, seeking is just painful.
[20:15] <jcastro> like, stop to pause and buffer all the time?
[20:16] <smoser> on my roku if i want to go back, ie, i missed what someone said
[20:16] <smoser> its painful.
[20:16] <smoser> it has to re-get that.
[20:16] <smoser> and if i then want to skip forward 30 seconds. same thing.
[20:17] <jcastro> firetv isn't instant, but it isn't bad either
[20:17] <jcastro> it's not something I complain about
[20:17] <jcastro> skipping back and forth on streaming boxes is kind of a noop, heh
[20:18] <smoser> anyone else notice that you can now pick "free no rush shipping" and get $1 credit on books ?
[20:18] <smoser> on amaozn prime
[20:18] <jcastro> yeah
[20:18] <jcastro> I like that, there's a bunch of things I don't care about speed on
[20:49] <smoser> well, i'm the proud owner (in some 3 weeks) of a amazon fire stick
[20:49] <jcastro> heh
[20:49] <jcastro> I preordered the nexus player thing
[20:49] <jcastro> so we can compared
[21:21] <cmaloney> I have the Roku LT and it's not bad for watching Amazon on
[21:21] <cmaloney> the only thing that's a little painful is Youtube
[22:34] <rick_h_> evening
