| daftykins | Bashing-om: any BIOS chip news? | 00:03 |
| Bashing-om | daftykins: Well .. Good news is that it has arrived .. sorta bad .. is not in the mood to finesse with it .. Good job for tomorrow . | 00:04 |
| R13ose | Hi | 00:04 |
| daftykins | Bashing-om: sounds good :> take your time! | 00:07 |
| daftykins | R13ose: i feel like you're hoping the channel will suddenly come up with a magical fix :P | 00:07 |
| R13ose | can't I say hi? | 00:07 |
| daftykins | yeah but i saw you say it earlier too, the above is what we call a joke | 00:07 |
| daftykins | relax :) | 00:08 |
| R13ose | I am relax :D | 00:08 |
| R13ose | mine was a joke too | 00:08 |
| Bashing-om | daftykins: If all goes as expected ( well !) will not take but a few moments to swap that bios chip out . Then we can see what the situation stinks like . | 00:10 |
| daftykins | :> | 00:13 |
| daftykins | fingers crossed | 00:13 |
| Bashing-om | Uh Huh .. I have high hopes .. would be a shame to have these hopes dashed by a different reality . | 00:14 |
| daftykins | well, if so we'll just ban this reality and make a new one! | 00:23 |
| Bashing-om | We do that as a matter of course . Install the right software, make it where 'buntu does not hurt . | 00:25 |

| ducasse | "hi, i want to setup and use a complex tool, but it is reeeeeally important that i don't read or learn anything." | 20:29 |
| nacc | yep | 20:29 |
| Bashing-om | Like many ... gimme a magic pill As I do not want to "work" to loose weight ( or whatever ) . | 20:32 |
| daftykins | haha how did they phrase that part? | 20:32 |
| ducasse | talking about setting up and using mysql: | 20:35 |
| ducasse | 21:14 <yocs0000> Flannel: yes, but you have to udnerstand that if I do it, I use the CLI, if it is a newbie, for example thw wife, she would like to fire it up and start using it | 20:35 |
| daftykins | lol yes his wife is just going to quickly fire up a database and get cracking | 20:52 |
| ducasse | "maybe there are things a newbie should not be doing?" | 20:56 |
| ducasse | "NO!" | 20:56 |
| * daftykins agrees | 20:57 | |
| ducasse | i'm all for all kind of people being able to use computers, but they should expect to use some time on reading and learning. and be happy they have the kind of access to docs and materials we do nowadays. | 20:59 |
| daftykins | absolutely, just had someone else asking me for a link to the product wiki... oh my word, lift a finger yourself! | 21:00 |
| ducasse | i hate those questions, but generally try to be polite and help. i know i have a tendency to be a bit short with people sometimes :) | 21:04 |
| daftykins | d'aww i've rubbed off on you! | 21:05 |
| ducasse | naw, it's just that autismometers blow up near me :) | 21:05 |
| ducasse | daftykins: done any soldering lately? i have a few caps on a spare mainboard that needs changing, considering getting a kit and see how badly i can screw it up. | 21:09 |
| ducasse | if i can fix it and get a case i'll have a nice htpc... | 21:09 |
| daftykins | :D | 21:10 |
| daftykins | nice, i'm debating giving away that board i swapped the caps on, along with a bunch of other old gear | 21:11 |
| daftykins | did you see the Sega Game Gear handheld i repaired? | 21:11 |
| ducasse | yes, that was cool! | 21:11 |
| daftykins | :D | 21:11 |
| daftykins | wish i could find more of the game cartridges for that | 21:11 |
| daftykins | i'd have bought caps for my das keyboard but i don't think they impact the key drops | 21:11 |
| daftykins | https://www.dropbox.com/s/o48brjqt27ppie7/IMG_20161017_133101.jpg?dl=0 | 21:12 |
| daftykins | i don't think those caps affect power across the keyboard whilst i'm not using any USB devices in its' hub | 21:12 |
| daftykins | at least that's my basic understanding of electronics | 21:12 |
| daftykins | part of me wants to swap them because... SOLDERING! \o/ | 21:13 |
| ducasse | i learned (well, at least they tried) the basic electronics stuff at school, but that was 20 years ago. but yes, fiddling with electronics is almost always fun, especially when it involves stuff that can be dangerous! | 21:14 |
| ducasse | HEEEAAAT! i am the god of hellfire! | 21:15 |
| daftykins | :> | 21:15 |
| daftykins | ducasse: just some through-hole caps then huh? easy peasy :D | 21:15 |
| ducasse | yes, afaict. i haven't really looked too closely at the entire board, just noticed a few bad ones. | 21:16 |
| daftykins | :) | 21:16 |
| daftykins | it's amazing how many hours fly by when working on things, i redo them until i'm happy with the joins | 21:17 |
| ducasse | you should be getting pretty good by now :) | 21:17 |
| daftykins | https://www.dropbox.com/s/wulwo99xpky1jcs/IMG_20161015_135525.jpg?dl=0 | 21:18 |
| daftykins | that gets close enough to show the main swaps on the left hand side | 21:18 |
| ducasse | i want to build one of these - http://imgur.com/gallery/pZACl | 21:19 |
| daftykins | kitty is hungry, INSERT CAT NIP! | 21:21 |
| ducasse | i'd *love* to have a mecha-cat :) | 21:21 |
| daftykins | not afraid of becoming submissive in the cat-human world? | 21:21 |
| ducasse | we already are, battle long lost. | 21:22 |
| daftykins | that's true, but it's a peaceful occupation | 21:22 |
| ducasse | at least my cat is nice about it :) | 21:22 |
| ducasse | but when she wants her breakfast i'd damn well better serve it. | 21:23 |
| daftykins | it's getting cold enough for mine to steal my chair now when i get up | 21:23 |
| ducasse | it started snowing today, she sat in the windowsill with a lost look on her face then came running to me as if i could make it stop :) | 21:26 |
| ducasse | must be 4-5" on the grass by now, so she's hibernating in the bathroom. | 21:27 |
| daftykins | aww | 21:27 |
| daftykins | do you have any pics of your little one about? | 21:28 |
| daftykins | https://www.dropbox.com/s/jcr39kpcb3owcx5/IMG_20161104_202551.jpg?dl=0 <-- mine just before | 21:28 |
| ducasse | daftykins: http://imgur.com/a/JssNu | 21:35 |
| daftykins | :D | 21:36 |
| ducasse | nothing looks as peaceful as a sleeping cat :) | 21:36 |
| daftykins | that links delightfully to - http://imgur.com/gallery/IHaWF | 21:38 |
| ducasse | hehe, first comment - "The cat realized that it was not the center of attention and had to shut that shit DOWN" :) | 21:40 |
| ducasse | man, it's getting too late for me. i have to finish a translation tomorrow, so i'd better get to bed. ttyl daftykins . | 21:51 |
| daftykins | ducasse: nn sir! | 21:57 |
| Bashing-om | ducasse: o/ .. Sleep well . | 22:00 |
