zmoylan-piuse a commodore 64 for all your web browsing... no one writes malware for that anymore :-P19:28
Azelphurlol19:29
Azelphurzmoylan-pi: this is with regards to ISPs being forced to keep a log of connections and that pretty much anyone can get access to it now >.>19:30
zmoylan-pii seem to remember somewrote a web server for the c64 that streamed music from the datacorder... worked well-ish19:30
zmoylan-pithis is when you send your foreign relatives a  pre configured rasp pi for all your vpn needs19:30
Azelphurmaybe so19:31
zmoylan-piand hope they live in a bastion of freedom like china, saudi arabia, australia were the national firewalls suck19:32

daftykinsheh22:27
zmoylan-pishiny... http://www.cnx-software.com/2016/11/24/pinebook-arm-linux-laptop-powered-by-allwinner-a64-processor-to-sell-for-89-and-up/22:41
daftykinsterribly underspecced22:49
zmoylan-pimore powerful than an old netbook i use every day... :-)22:50
daftykinsi'd say they're about equal in terms of landfill status22:51
* zmoylan-pi shakes original olpc at daftykins angrily... :-P22:57
daftykinsget it away!23:00
zmoylan-piit still has the best laptop screen ever made...23:00
daftykinsrubbish23:01
daftykinslooks like i've convinced a wealthy fella to drop £2.5k on the 65" OLED 4K TV :D23:01
zmoylan-pibeen able to use it bw mode outdoors in direct sunlight AND save battery life was brilliant23:01
zmoylan-pinothing bus the best pot noodles for daftykins this crimbo \o/23:02
daftykinsi'm amazed to discover John Lewis will ship to the rocks, amazon won't anymore23:02
daftykinsi've never had a pot noodle!23:02
zmoylan-pijohn lewis is a uk company so probably sees the rock as just non mainland uk23:02
daftykinsmakes me wonder though, can you really charge for your product research time...23:02
daftykinsyeah but most others refuse to ship here23:03
daftykinsof course the site fails to do anything about tax23:03
zmoylan-pithe rock is an odd place in terms of shipping and taxes so maybe not worth the hassle?23:03
zmoylan-pi65" 4k tv... you'll see every nose hair and pimple23:04
daftykinshttp://www.johnlewis.com/customer-services/information-about-shopping-on-johnlewiscom/vat23:04
daftykinsyep23:04
daftykinshave to train the client to stop buying SD DVDs :P23:04
daftykinshe did ask me to find a bigger TV, but i doubt he fancies the £25k price tag on the 77" version23:05
zmoylan-pifair enough, he'll have to hold out for the blu ray of all the pre 70s classics...23:05
ali1234you can charge for anything you want23:08
ali1234some people do nothing but charge for research...23:09
daftykinsho-hum23:10
daftykinsTV drops to £2474 from £2969 here in tax free land23:10
zmoylan-pithat's a lot of blu rays23:10
daftykinsnope, only 1 4K bluray player ;)23:11
daftykinsin fact i should look at those too23:11
zmoylan-pidoes sony playstation not do 4k blu ray?23:11
zmoylan-pii always heard it was the defacto blu ray player23:12
daftykinsnope, would you believe it they didn't even bother to put an updated drive in their newer models23:13
zmoylan-pisony have not just jumped the shark but are posing for cheesy pics with it afterwards...23:13
daftykinsthere's a certain benefit to using a console since you can keep getting updates for the app way easier than you'd get player firmware updates, but i doubt a client would want to sit there with a console UI to get something going23:14
zmoylan-piit's also that as there are so many of them that blu ray manufacturers made sure it at least worked on the playstation if nowhere else23:14
daftykinshmm i don't see that being a big deal23:15
zmoylan-pisafety in been part of the herd23:15
daftykinscheaper to buy an xbox one S, figures!23:17
daftykinsah Sony, the company that brought out a copy protection on DVDs that rendered many of their own players unable to play new titles23:17
zmoylan-pii lost a lot of trust when they went out of their way in 90s to make their cd players not handle cd-rs or mp3s23:18
daftykinsmmm23:18
zmoylan-pithey make beautiful hardware but their software aspires to merely sucking23:19
daftykinslooking forward to checking out OLED tech anyway, not even been to a TV shop to see a 4K one in person either23:47
