[09:03] <davmor2> Morning all
[09:05] <diplo_> Morning all
[09:13] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[11:10] <davmor2> JamesTait: is there a reason you haven't published the day everywhere have you just fallen out with the rest of the t'interwebz
[11:11] <JamesTait> davmor2, there is a reason - my freenode connection failed at first, and I dind't come back to do it. 😉
[11:11] <JamesTait> Happy Monday, and happy No Brainer Day! 😃
[11:11] <davmor2> JamesTait: slacker
[11:11] <JamesTait> I've got half a week's worth of emails to catch up on!
[11:11] <davmor2> JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Ejga4kJUts
[15:21] <davmor2> hello lo  lo   lo     lo      o      o       o           o
[16:09] <diddledan> https://twitter.com/mikko/status/836246609541251072
[16:11] <davmor2> diddledan: he seemed to miss server, supercomputers and cloud
[16:11] <diddledan> true
[16:12] <davmor2> diddledan: oh and GPU compute modules
[16:12]  * diddledan computes some GPUs
[17:36] <diddledan> aww, he just wants a hug: https://twitter.com/helenhousandi/status/836268308420788228
[17:55] <davmor2> diddledan: hahahahaha
[18:38] <zmoylan-pi> a warm leg to cling to on a cold day...
[18:47] <brobostigon> 14
[18:47] <brobostigon> sorry
[18:48] <zmoylan-pi> 12 - that's ok
[18:48] <ali1234> that's numberwang?
[18:49] <SuperMatt> I thought it was wangernum
[18:49] <brobostigon> was meant to have been with /win
[21:39] <diddledan> wat: http://www.spacex.com/news/2017/02/27/spacex-send-privately-crewed-dragon-spacecraft-beyond-moon-next-year
[21:41] <zmoylan-pi> i remember when i was a kid and they actually landed their ships there... :-P
[23:01] <zmoylan-pi> squeee..... pi zero w.... pi zero with wifi and bt...
[23:03] <ali1234> FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
[23:05] <zmoylan-pi> rampaging mobs of geeks congregating around hardware shops... i must get a rasp pi inspector t-shirt and badge printed... :-P
[23:08] <ali1234> it still has the crappy old ARMv6 processor
[23:08] <diddledan> wait, what?!
[23:10] <zmoylan-pi> it's a pi zero.  it's main goal was small and low power not for compiling kernels
[23:11] <ali1234> it means you can't run any decent operating system on it
[23:11] <ali1234> no ubuntu, no android
[23:12] <daftykins> ^
[23:12] <daftykins> zmoylan-pi will defend them to the death regardless ;)
[23:12] <ali1234> raspbian, debian armel (no FPU), or arch (lol)
[23:13] <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
[23:14]  * 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
[23:15] <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?
[23:16] <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
[23:17] <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
[23:18] <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 :-)
[23:19] <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 ;)
[23:20] <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
[23:21] <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
[23:22] <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
[23:23] <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
[23:24] <zmoylan-pi> the tech support in india is much better
[23:24] <daftykins> except maybe with a cattle rustling problem...
[23:25] <daftykins> how do you factor tech support in? :)
[23:26] <zmoylan-pi> well you said the cowboys were no use so it must have been the indians who fixed it... :-P
[23:28] <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
[23:29] <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
[23:30] <zmoylan-pi> don't worry i'm sure the monopoly people will stop that real soon now™
[23:30] <daftykins> :D
[23:30] <diddledan> daftykins: at those prices are you sure _you're_ not the cowboy?!
[23:31]  * zmoylan-pi plays spaghetti western standoff music as diddledan faces daftykins down...
[23:32] <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
[23:33] <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
[23:35] <daftykins> anywho bed for me, can't even read the screen with these new specs :(
[23:36] <daftykins> ta-ra \o
[23:36] <zmoylan-pi> o/
[23:39]  * diddledan watching orphan black
[23:39] <diddledan> and ripping dvds
[23:42]  * zmoylan-pi moseys off to grab a shower...
