directhexWHO HAS A PI 1?00:37
zmoylan-piwhich pi 1? the pi a or b?00:37
directhexdoesn't matter00:38
directhexas long as it runs raspbian jessie or above00:38
popeyi have a pi zero booted if it helps00:38
* zmoylan-pi pats my pi b...00:38
directhexwhat cpu arch is pi zero?00:38
popeysame as 100:38
directhexv6?00:38
popeyya00:38
zmoylan-piwhich pi zero? :-)00:38

directhex^^00:39
directhexhm...00:39
directhexmake that http://xamjenkinsartifact.blob.core.windows.net/specialthings/raspbian/results/00:39
zmoylan-pipi zeros are quite rare though, aren't they? i usually just see people trying to order them as they keep running out of them00:40
popeydeb [trusted=yes] http://xamjenkinsartifact.blob.core.windows.net/specialthings/raspbian/results/ ./00:41
directhexdeb [trusted=yes] http://xamjenkinsartifact.blob.core.windows.net/specialthings/raspbian/results/ ./00:41
popeyso that?00:41
popeyhah00:41
directhexyes00:41
popeyok00:41
directhexor https, if you prefer, and have apt-transport-https installed00:41
popeyforgot how slow these are00:42
directhexnormal xamarin mono is built for v7, and throws SIGILL during GAC installation (which will happen when apt gets to libnunit-core2.6.3-cil)00:43
ali1234i have a A+00:44
ali1234it's closer to the Pi 1 than the zero is... slightly. same CPU though00:44
popeyhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/24238073/00:44
popeythis will take a while00:44
popeyali1234: hey, nice video on pimoroni!00:44
ali1234thanks :)00:45
ali1234it was fun00:45
popeyyeah, it looked it00:45
popeysuch a brilliant idea too00:45
popeyi have a couple of pi zeroes with usb headers badly soldered on with wires00:45
ali1234zmoylan-pi: the new zero w is more expensive and less rare. not to hard to obtain00:45
ali1234popey: do you actually use device mode?00:46
popeyyes00:46
ali1234what for?00:46
ali1234i cant figure out why people want it this00:46
popeywhen i want to test armv6 packages and dont have a display/keyboard00:46
ali1234hmm i guess without wifi it would be useful00:46
popeyjust have my laptop, so plug it in and run a shell script to setup ip forwarding00:46
ali1234network manager should be able to do that for you automatically...00:47
popeyyeah, i faff with it00:47
ali1234a couple of ideas i came up with are a portable apache for demoing websites00:47
ali1234and exposing a USB storage device containing portable VNC, which then would connect to VNC running on the pi, making a portable desktop00:48
popeyhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/24238084/ thats the script I run00:48
popeyoverkill probably00:48
ali1234there is also a potential to upload the operating system over USB, so without a SD card at all, ut i don't think it works currently00:48
ali1234that could be handled by regular hotplug firmware loading/udev rules00:49
popeydirecthex: finished downloading and installing chug chug chug00:49
directhexpopey: should be 4.8.0.520?00:50
popeySetting up libmono-corlib4.5-cil (4.8.0.520-0xamarin3) ...00:50
ali1234so... is ARMv6 making a comeback then?00:50
ali1234the architecture that just wont die...00:50
popeywell, on another machine I'm building gcc for armv600:51
popeylike you do00:51
popeyali1234: the other nice thing about your board is just the convenience of slapping it into a usb port with no cables00:51
ali1234yeah, that was my main design goal... keep it really tidy00:52
ali1234i have too many cables already00:52
popeyusb ports are all over the place here, and with wifi pi zeros, it's a computer plugged into an old ipod charger00:52
popeydirecthex: what did you build this on/with?00:53
ali1234i cross compile everything with the linaro toolchain... but i'm targetting pi 3 mostly00:54
ali1234i build a raspbian chroot with multistrap and then use it as compiler sysroot00:55
popeydirecthex: done00:56
popeypi@raspberrypi:~ $ mono --version00:56
popeyMono JIT compiler version 4.8.0 (Stable 4.8.0.520/8f6d0f6 Thu Mar 23 22:40:02 UTC 2017)00:56
directhexpopey: this is good news!00:56
popeysuper00:57
directhexpopey: built it on my usual build farm. so this was on a tegra tk100:57
popeyneat00:57
popeyi typically build in launchpad which i think means hp moonshot things00:58
popey(i don't really know)00:58
directhexbig issue for us has been *publishing*, since you can't have v6 and v7 builds of the same package version in the same apt repo00:58
popeyoof00:59
popeyarm is wonderful, isn't it00:59
directhexraspbian repurposing "armhf" instead of adding a new intentionally-incompatible arch name helped nobody01:00
ali1234eh... blame raspbian/debian for using "armhf" to mean different things i guess01:00
ali1234yeah, that ^01:00
popeydirecthex: test complete?01:01
popeybed is calling01:01
directhexyes, thank you01:01
popeynp01:02
popeynn01:02
directhexi have a new nearly-ready-to-deploy pipeline for mono package building, which allows targeting multiple distributions per release01:02
ali1234popey: that's a nice setup script, copying the ssh key etc. if you publish it somewher emore permanent i'd like to link it from zerostem.io01:10

diddledanaccording to the daily fail we need to be blaming russia for islamic terrorists: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2348191/EXCLUSIVE-KGB-operation-seeded-Muslim-countries-anti-American-anti-Jewish-propaganda-1970s-laying-groundwork-Islamist-terrorism-U-S-Israeli-targets.html13:51
zmoylan-pihmmm and if the russians back trumpn then are we supposed to support his 30 day play to destroy isis?13:53
SuperEngineerEverytime I stop a particular service station chain they ask me if I would like a free copy of The Sun.  One day, they'll work out why I keep replying, "no thanks, I've already had a crap".13:57
zmoylan-pireply with, do you have the daily mail, i had a huge curry last night...13:58
SuperEngineer:-D13:58
zmoylan-piAND a plunger...13:58

SuperEngineermakes I lol14:30
zmoylan-piwell i have had network blockages that would have been handy... :-P14:32
AzelphurSuperEngineer: me and my friends wind each other up with our "No context quotes thread"14:33

popeyali1234: forgot I'd put it there 5 months ago, so just updated it22:08
popeygot the shipping notification from pimoroni, looking forward to digging out my pizeroes and doing a quick bit of soldering :)22:17
ali1234thanks, added22:40
daftykinssoldering \o/22:40
daftykinsi wish i had more to do for the practice, should've kept a faulty motherboard and just had fun removing things22:41
ali1234removing stuff is not fun22:41
ali1234not when you're doing it for a real repair anyway22:42
ali1234way too many bad things can happen22:42
ali1234you can get some nice kits on ebay for next to nothing22:43
daftykinserr, well i did recapping fine enough22:46
daftykinsi'd count that as removing22:46
ali1234yeah, it is22:46
ali1234funny thing is through hole are easier to fit but harder to remove22:46
daftykinsyeah i did many on a fault board as my first job22:47
daftykins*faulty22:47
daftykinsseemed pretty straightforward to me22:48
diddledanOr as Americans seem to insist on calling it: soddering22:49
daftykins:D22:49
daftykinsi like to think of it as sáudering22:50
diddledan'I'm going to sodder that bad boy later..'22:50
daftykinsdiddledan: Jim'll fix it22:50
diddledanJim'll fiddle with you. And you, and you. And papa papa pa, just don't tell papa22:51
diddledanOk that's bad taste ;-p22:52
daftykinscrikey22:52
daftykinsbest part was i could hear the theme as i read it though22:52
diddledanI always read that name without the n: twinsenx22:55
* diddledan boshes them for join/parting so often22:56
daftykinsthat's the first time i've seen that nick o022:56
diddledanThey never speak22:57
zmoylan-piif we started banning users for that... :-)22:58
diddledanBetter to ban folk making songs for pederasts22:59
diddledanOh wait..22:59
diddledanForget that23:00
diddledanIs it bed time yet?23:04
daftykinsi'm feeling that way23:04
daftykinsjust got prodded by these - http://i.imgur.com/e0RCn6E.jpg23:04
diddledanAww23:04
diddledanKittypaws are cute23:05
daftykinsthe weapons man! the weapons!23:05
diddledanMind you, most kittythings are cute23:05
daftykinsthey make katana 'shing' sounds when she walks ;)23:05
diddledanLol23:05
zmoylan-piright up until they decide to take a shortcut and jump onto you from stairs and land using claws for anchorage...23:05
diddledanEep23:06
daftykinsah she did that on my lap out of the blue when i didn't even know she was in the room the other day, i had my forearms exposed on my lap and so suffered greatly23:06
diddledanThey just wanna hug23:06
zmoylan-piand you have to stand their and patiently unplink each claw one by one till the cat detaches...23:06
zmoylan-pitrying to rip the cat off like a bandaid is something you learn doesn't end well in any way...23:08
diddledanI posted this the other day, but it needs reposting. 90s gaming shows were .. erm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0s6nyrQxgw23:08
diddledanI'd completely forgotten about that show, but I do recall watching it back then now I've rediscovered it23:10
zmoylan-pivideo games and tv shows never really gelled... by the time they were made the games were on their way down the charts... except for paperboy... that hung around for years...23:10
daftykinsah don't forget that desert taxi one too ;D23:11
zmoylan-piand then when i was watching there were commodore 64, vic 20, zx spectrum 48k + 128k and amstrad games so most of the shows were for games that would never work on your machine23:12
