foobarrywonder if we can crowdsource a campaign to ask tesco to hand over teh bootloader keys for hudl211:49
foobarrynow they've ditched it11:49
zmoylan-pigood luck11:50
foobarryi think their android guy has left too11:56
Myrttibrowsed through Amazon's Deals of the Day section, and they've changed the layout of it. Accidentally added 30 Blurays on a wishlist.11:58
Myrttifrom their 2 for £10 deal bin11:58
zmoylan-pii never saw a single hudl here in ireland.  i was keen to get one for a while11:59
foobarrystill the best tablet for the price11:59
foobarryalthough i heard they were stopping them because of screen cracking issues11:59
foobarrymy guess is that they are ditching blinkbox etc and realising they are not amazon12:00
diplofoobarry: funnily enough I was reading up on that too, yeah lead engineer has gone and 2 of his underlings I believe, no hudl3 is going to come so I'd say we're not going to get anything12:00
foobarrya real shame as i'd saved vouchers to buy another12:00
diploThey are, decided in August so I read, and their home broadband12:00
foobarrythey have no reason *not* to release the keys12:00
zmoylan-piwhat's in it for them?12:00
diploThey don't have the engineers to do it now ?12:00
foobarrythey have some reason to release them as lots of users up the creek without support12:01
foobarryand 5.1 on the hudl2 just landed and experiencing a few problemw12:01
zmoylan-pithat's not their problem now that they've abandoned them12:01
foobarrythey are still obliged to support those who just bought it12:01
zmoylan-pithey can replace their defective units with another defective unit till the user gives up or fights for a refund12:02
foobarryor give back to the users . many other tablets unklock bootloaders12:02
foobarrynow there is no incentive for tesco to lock it, they should12:02
zmoylan-pii just don't see tesco been that nice12:02
foobarryi would even pay to unlock12:02
foobarryi would also pay to unlock kindle fire12:03
foobarryi wonder who the android devs were12:03
foobarrymaybe linkedin knows12:04
foobarrythat was quick12:04

foobarryshe thinks its a squirrel or meerkat or something13:33
zmoylan-pi is there a way to transfer the smell of the dog on to the meerkat to help it accept it?13:34
foobarryi don't think shes a dummy13:40
foobarryshe's bred for ratting13:40
foobarryalthough hasn't caught our mouse yet13:40
diddledan_that's because mouse != rat :-p13:42

diddledan_glad I don't have to walk home today16:43
ali1234i wish websites like facebook and linked-in had a thing that would tell me why they think i know a person they are suggesting16:44
diddledan_I think oftentimes they just link you to people who are connected to people you're connected to - two degrees of separation16:46
diddledan_and of course linkedin loves harvesting addressbooks16:46
diddledan_that one person you replied to once on a mailing list. yeah linkedin thinks you want to be their business partner16:47
ali1234i see people and the name is kind of familiar but i don't know why16:47
diddledan_I wonder if you know me? :-p16:48
diddledan_linkedin probably could find a way of linking us16:48
diddledan_I heard nasa are going to release news of a major discovery on mars - they found an object floating in the water... rumours are it's a linkedin email16:49
diddledan_(that's a joke, btw - there is no announcement that I'm aware of)16:50
ali1234i see a bunch of people from here on there16:50
ali1234no dans though16:51
diddledan_yeah we're probably all on various mailing lists so you might have got email addresses from there into your addressbook which then got harvested16:52
diddledan_I wonder if the twitter link-up on linkedin has any effect on recommendations, too16:53
ali1234i'm not ever sure what that means :)16:53
ali1234i don't use the twitters either16:53
diddledan_I'm a twitter consumer, not a producer16:54
ali1234i think some of the people it's showing me are people who i just looked at their profile once16:54
diddledan_I just watch the feed occasionally16:54

ali1234the funny thing is that microsoft, apple, google etc can just ship us the same crap version of their software that they send to crypto-embargoed terrorist states18:39
zmoylan-piat this point is there any crypto secure software that hasn't been backdoored18:44
ali1234almost all of it?18:46
mappscsi cyber time;d18:54
davmor2One, two princes kneel before you  That what I said now  Princes, princes who adore you !19:52
diddledan_so that encryption thingy - are they saying that companies must retain full transcripts of communications to correlate against an encrypted version when asked to provide the unencrypted?20:21
diddledan_they need to MitM all web browsing, too?!20:26
zmoylan-piit been the uk... both20:41
