[07:05] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[07:30] <popey> morning slackers
[07:31] <brobostigon> morning
[07:33] <brobostigon> me and my fiance announced yesterday to our respective parents our wedding plans, definatly one of the most worrying days i can remember.
[07:36] <popey> heh :)
[07:37] <brobostigon> :)
[08:07] <diplo> Morning all
[08:08] <diplo> Anyone recommend what would be good to run on a old Sony Vaio PCG-6R1M - Only has a gig of ram. Friends other half has left her and this is the only laptop she has, runs vista so need to stick something else on it.
[08:08] <diplo> Lubuntu ?
[08:22] <Azelphur> yea, lubuntu or xubuntu, maybe a different distro like Arch would be even  lighter
[08:31] <diplo> Forgot Xbunut, will give it a go too thanks
[09:20] <MooDoo> hello all
[09:58] <popey> yo
[10:02] <MooDoo> quiet in here
[10:02] <diplo> Tis always quiet in here now, hello!
[10:04] <zmoylan-pi> it's a bank holiday in ireland so i'm pondering on heading into town and see if i can find a nokia 3310 (2017 version) for sale...
[10:06] <zmoylan-pi> and don't forget apples keynote thingy later...
[10:07] <diddledan> morning
[10:07] <diddledan> it's 6pm, the apple thingy
[10:07] <diddledan> https://blog.adafruit.com/2017/06/05/make-your-own-arduino-with-power-supply-and-bootloader/
[10:12] <MooDoo> zmoylan-pi: let me know about the phone, thinking of getting one myself.
[10:13] <zmoylan-pi> it will be hard to find in dublin for a few months i suspect, demand has been high and carphonewarehouse told me that it would only be available online in ireland.  so will have to wait till phone accessory/unlocking shops have them in...
[10:14] <zmoylan-pi> but the challenge means i search a lot of techie shops and locals and that's a lot of walking and exercise...
[10:16] <zmoylan-pi> but the nokia 3310 would make an ideal fm radio/podcast phone as the battery will last all day with nary a dent
