| Azelphur | hehe | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| Azelphur | stumbled upon this with my daily deal hunting, http://www.amazon.co.uk/Vodafone-Smart-Turbo-Pay-Handset-Black/dp/B00MRS0C24 | 00:09 |
| Azelphur | looks pretty swish actually | 00:09 |
| penguin42 | not bad for the money, although might be worth checking Argos's sale, they normally have good deals on phones | 00:11 |
| Azelphur | doubt you'll find much cheaper than that, quad core with 4G for £60 | 00:12 |
| daftykins | :) | 00:13 |
| daftykins | what's the unlocking potential like? | 00:13 |
| Azelphur | no clue, I literally just read the specs on paper | 00:14 |
| daftykins | we have our own telcos :< | 00:14 |
| daftykins | or is that :> | 00:15 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: Watch out for the quadness, some of them are poor spec cores | 00:16 |
| Azelphur | ah | 00:16 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: The A7 cores are low spec cores | 00:17 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: I mean still better than 2 A7 cores, but slower than the equivalent A15 cores | 00:17 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: But people go 'woohoo quad core' and don't really notice it's 1.2GHz A7 | 00:17 |
| Azelphur | yea I guess, I figured 1.2ghz quad would be fine | 00:18 |
| Azelphur | the Nexus 4 was a 1.5ghz quad and it was really nice, still is | 00:18 |
| Azelphur | but yea, I suppose I should pay more attention to whether it's a crappy core | 00:19 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: Yeh but those were 1.5GHz Krait's | 00:19 |
| Azelphur | indeed | 00:19 |
| penguin42 | I'm not sure of the performance diff between a krait and an A7 | 00:19 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: The octocore machines that have 4 fast, 4 slow, I think tend to have the A7's as the slow, and A15 as the fast | 00:20 |
| Azelphur | I see :) | 00:20 |
| daftykins | shame Google ignore the flaws with the Nexus 4 | 00:21 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1P4WtPGVHF-qFJbuR0LnM-kj15CzZAIAJQYUkMbvpRas/edit#gid=0 | 00:22 |
| penguin42 | (from a bit of googling) | 00:22 |
| Azelphur | that's a useful chart | 00:22 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: So I don't know if that's actually accurate, but that's saying an A7 is 1.9DMIPS/MHz, and an A15 is 3.5, Krait is 3.3 | 00:22 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: so a quad A7 just about scrapes past a dual Krait, and is slower than a dual A15 (just) | 00:23 |
| Azelphur | I see | 00:23 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: Milage may of course vary, past performance is no guarantee of future gains.... | 00:24 |
| daftykins | Azelphur: just a thought, if you haven't made any progress, have you thought about trying a cyanogenmod channel for anyone that might use chromecast? regardless of using said ROM of course | 00:39 |
| Azelphur | I asked on #android and some dude told me to use localcast which didn't work | 00:39 |
| daftykins | hrmmph | 00:39 |
| ali12341 | sup | 01:25 |
| ali12341 | moto g is the best deal at the moment | 01:26 |
| ali12341 | 140 unlocked, android 5.0, dual sim or 4G | 01:26 |
| ali12341 | also we just did the chromecast thing here | 01:28 |
| ali12341 | worked fine, watched some iplayer and it was near-HD quality | 01:28 |

| mapito | hey | 05:00 |
| mapito | so whos seen the interview | 05:00 |
| shauno | I don't really plan to. it doesn't really sound worth watching | 05:24 |
| mapito | 9/10 on imdb tho | 05:25 |
| shauno | heh | 05:25 |
| shauno | it was 9/10 before anyone had seen it. for the same reason slovakia voted to name a bridge "chuck norris bridge". you can't trust the internet to vote :) | 05:26 |
| mapito | oh | 05:26 |
| mapito | so who wa behind the 'hack' | 05:26 |
| shauno | if I was a betting man, my money would be on TeamGhostShell | 05:28 |
| shauno | the NK angle just seems highly illogical. they'd shared everything they had and torched the remains long before anyone made the connection with this movie | 05:31 |
| shauno | that's not what you do if you're trying to use it as leverage | 05:31 |
| mapito | yea | 05:32 |
| mapito | how did they get into sony servers does anyone know what the vulnerability was | 05:33 |
| shauno | from what I've read, it sounds quite likely they had inside help | 05:33 |
| shauno | and sony's reputation for security seems so bad that someone holding the door open would go a whole long way | 05:34 |
| mapito | what about the nk hack..didnt they steal fury? | 05:35 |
| shauno | this is a pretty hilarious read from 2007; http://www.cio.com/article/2439324/risk-management/your-guide-to-good-enough-compliance.html | 05:36 |
| shauno | it does start to paint a picture that perhaps drawing blood from their network isn't quite the feat it sounds | 05:41 |
| mapito | heh | 05:59 |
| mapito | howcome oure still up? | 05:59 |
| mapito | oure | 05:59 |
| mapito | youre argh | 05:59 |
| shauno | heh, I'm at work | 06:06 |
| mapito | ah | 06:09 |
| mapito | till what time | 06:09 |
| mapito | you work from home yea? | 06:09 |
| shauno | nope, in the office, till 6 | 06:09 |
| shauno | (pm) | 06:10 |

| SuperMatt | I've made the switch to the gnome edition :) | 15:36 |
| popey | Congratulations. | 16:18 |
| SuperMatt | I'm going to make the switch at work too, I just think it's that little bit nicer than using regular ubuntu with gnome installed | 16:29 |
| shauno | hm, here's a fun one. I need to find a dns server that doesn't reply to tcp requests. I suspect I may as well skip this step and go straight to headbutting walls | 16:32 |
| penguin42 | why?! | 16:33 |
| penguin42 | but anyway, a firewall entry should solve that | 16:33 |
| shauno | trying to 'prove' a really weird scenario - one that does appear to be affecting customers, but everyone claims shouldn't | 16:35 |
| penguin42 | ok, so just add a firewall rule to block tcp connections on port 53 with whatever form of 'block' you want | 16:35 |
| shauno | we have a loadbalancer that only replies to udp. platform maintain this isn't an issue because it serves no 'large' requests, so tcp should never be required | 16:36 |
| shauno | now I appear to be running into customers who are only allowing 53/tcp outbound (not sure whether it's intentional .. they're in India) | 16:37 |
| penguin42 | yeh they're just wrong | 16:38 |
| shauno | they're all wrong. I want to bang their heads together. but each claim it isn't a problem because it works for everyone else | 16:39 |
| penguin42 | what's the largest valid udp sizes you're seeign? | 16:39 |
| shauno | honestly, no idea, I'm quite removed from the actual operations | 16:40 |
| shauno | but the loadbalancers serve no complex requests. just 2 A records | 16:40 |
| penguin42 | shauno: Curiously wikipedia has a piece of text that says 'Some resolver implementations use TCP for all queries.' but doesn't say which | 16:40 |
| shauno | hm, that's an interesting one. if I can prove that, it might be just the blunt instrument required to correct our side | 16:43 |

| * penguin42 saw a segway tour underway near me earlier; it seemed very leisurely and boring | 17:12 | |
| mapito | what to do | 17:43 |
| mapito | hm | 17:43 |
| mapito | ive used a segway | 17:43 |
| zmoylan-pi | the cops use them here, looks a little silly | 17:43 |
| mapito | hard at irst tbh..and i cant imagine using one all round a town | 17:43 |
| mapito | like in the Prague and that they do tours around the city on a segway | 17:44 |
| mapito | in busy areas..i wouldnt fancy using one:D | 17:44 |
| penguin42 | this was in a park | 17:44 |
| shauno | aye I've seen the cops in dublin using them. they look hilarious. | 17:44 |
| mapito | does seem odd | 17:44 |
| mapito | theyre quite expensive too iirc? | 17:45 |
| zmoylan-pi | they do put the cops a few inches above the crowd so might be good in that respect | 17:45 |
| mapito | whats wrong with a good ole push bike: | 17:45 |
| shauno | I think they should just walk. they ought to be approachable - not ducking out their way because they managed to balance some fat guy on 1 wheel | 17:45 |
| zmoylan-pi | cheap segways only have 1 wheel? :-) | 17:46 |
| shauno | I figure if it's dublin, there'll be a brick under the other wheel | 17:46 |
| zmoylan-pi | look for gardai going in circles... | 17:47 |
| mapp | hm | 23:30 |
| penguin42 | hmm? | 23:30 |
| * zmoylan-pi puts rubber mat under the humming equipment to eliminate the noise | 23:30 | |
