| JamesTait | davmor2, there is a reason - my freenode connection failed at first, and I dind't come back to do it. 😉 | 11:11 |

| zmoylan-pi | a warm leg to cling to on a cold day... | 18:38 |
| brobostigon | 14 | 18:47 |
| brobostigon | sorry | 18:47 |
| zmoylan-pi | 12 - that's ok | 18:48 |
| ali1234 | that's numberwang? | 18:48 |
| SuperMatt | I thought it was wangernum | 18:49 |
| brobostigon | was meant to have been with /win | 18:49 |
| diddledan | wat: http://www.spacex.com/news/2017/02/27/spacex-send-privately-crewed-dragon-spacecraft-beyond-moon-next-year | 21:39 |
| zmoylan-pi | i remember when i was a kid and they actually landed their ships there... :-P | 21:41 |
| zmoylan-pi | squeee..... pi zero w.... pi zero with wifi and bt... | 23:01 |
| ali1234 | FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF | 23:03 |
| zmoylan-pi | rampaging mobs of geeks congregating around hardware shops... i must get a rasp pi inspector t-shirt and badge printed... :-P | 23:05 |
| ali1234 | it still has the crappy old ARMv6 processor | 23:08 |
| diddledan | wait, what?! | 23:08 |
| zmoylan-pi | it's a pi zero. it's main goal was small and low power not for compiling kernels | 23:10 |
| ali1234 | it means you can't run any decent operating system on it | 23:11 |
| ali1234 | no ubuntu, no android | 23:11 |
| daftykins | ^ | 23:12 |
| daftykins | zmoylan-pi will defend them to the death regardless ;) | 23:12 |
| ali1234 | raspbian, debian armel (no FPU), or arch (lol) | 23:12 |
| ali1234 | those are your choices | 23:13 |
| daftykins | zmoylan-pi: aren't you happy enough about getting a new nokia dumbphone *AND* a Psion replacement? :D | 23:13 |
| * zmoylan-pi offers ali1234 and daftykins their choice of foam swords or axes for combat... :-P | 23:14 | |
| zmoylan-pi | well 2016 killed a lot of people, 2017 is about resurrecting hardware we loved... :-P | 23:14 |
| ali1234 | also i'd like to point out that the pi 3 isnt suitable for compiling kernels either, it takes ages | 23:14 |
| ali1234 | and it is about 6 times faster than the zero | 23:15 |
| ali1234 | but about 100 times slower than my PC | 23:15 |
| daftykins | i get the idea that new '3310' needs some thorough road testing... | 23:15 |
| ali1234 | are they even going to sell the 3310 in europe/america? | 23:15 |
| zmoylan-pi | the new 3310 is... meh... 2g so won't work a lot of places the 2g network is shutdown. no java apps so no installing useful software | 23:16 |
| ali1234 | is it even new at all? or did they just dust off the old plans? | 23:16 |
| zmoylan-pi | it looks like a modded nokia 150 | 23:16 |
| zmoylan-pi | but it's great advertising for a company only now coming to the android party | 23:17 |
| zmoylan-pi | and their high end android looks like a very nice (to some) stock android device | 23:17 |
| zmoylan-pi | i joked in another channel a few weeks back that it wouldn't be considered a success unless it was compatible with original pop covers that people have hoarded for 15 years... and i stand by that :-) | 23:18 |
| daftykins | well they said 2.5g so i'm not sure if that changes anything but yeah, had the same thought - it also better have threaded SMS ;) | 23:19 |
| zmoylan-pi | and i want to see a terminator downed by a nokia 3310 to the head before i buy one... or a cracked pavement slab... | 23:20 |
| diddledan | zmoylan-pi: more likely to kill a terminator with a galaxy note 7 | 23:20 |
| zmoylan-pi | too much chance of friendly fireball | 23:20 |
| diddledan | ooh myy. kinky. | 23:21 |
| ali1234 | if any of you see a picture of the bottom of the new pi zero can you send me the link please | 23:21 |
| daftykins | woohoo i put in the fancy new dCSS device today on the back of my clients' existing satellite dish multiswitch, so £65 solution compared with the Sky installers' proposed £250 one | 23:22 |
| daftykins | functioning just fine in legacy mode (old Sky+ HD boxes) so just need them to bring over the new Sky Q gear tomorrow afternoon and try out the new setup | 23:23 |
| daftykins | yet another example of why you don't trust cowboys | 23:23 |
| zmoylan-pi | the tech support in india is much better | 23:24 |
| daftykins | except maybe with a cattle rustling problem... | 23:24 |
| daftykins | how do you factor tech support in? :) | 23:25 |
| zmoylan-pi | well you said the cowboys were no use so it must have been the indians who fixed it... :-P | 23:26 |
| daftykins | http://www.satelliteandaerialsupplies.com/product/?s=global-invacom-d000363-sky-q-multiswitch-dscr-adaptor | 23:28 |
| daftykins | this puppy from a very helpful UK fella sorted things out (at least, assuming success tomorrow) | 23:28 |
| zmoylan-pi | fingers crossed all goes well | 23:28 |
| daftykins | no surprises, Sky are trying to trash satellite setups by making them solely work with Sky boxes only in the new Sky Q systems, if the installer comes and fits their new LNB to the dish you won't be able to use freesat on it | 23:29 |
| zmoylan-pi | don't worry i'm sure the monopoly people will stop that real soon nowâ„¢ | 23:30 |
| daftykins | :D | 23:30 |
| diddledan | daftykins: at those prices are you sure _you're_ not the cowboy?! | 23:30 |
| * zmoylan-pi plays spaghetti western standoff music as diddledan faces daftykins down... | 23:31 | |
| daftykins | i checked for a horse and everything, i swear! | 23:32 |
| zmoylan-pi | as long as they pony up he'll be happy | 23:32 |
| daftykins | oh even better than that, i ordered on their card \o/ | 23:32 |
| diddledan | haha | 23:32 |
| daftykins | cycled through the heavy rain today to retrieve it from the postie though, i ordered it by Friday lunch and they tried to drop it off Saturday! | 23:33 |
| daftykins | pretty impressive for rock post | 23:33 |
| daftykins | anywho bed for me, can't even read the screen with these new specs :( | 23:35 |
| daftykins | ta-ra \o | 23:36 |
| zmoylan-pi | o/ | 23:36 |
