| daftykins | hrmm has anyone ever sold on silver jewellery? i found an old bracelet i was gifted when i was younger, no idea if you get much value out of selling it for scrap | 18:42 |
| penguin42 | I'd heard silver had got a lot more expensive lately | 18:45 |
| daftykins | ah that's interesting | 18:45 |
| daftykins | i might just pop in one of the high street places in the week, then | 18:45 |
| penguin42 | daftykins: Is it hall-marked? and is it aesthetically nice? | 18:45 |
| daftykins | hmm not sure, personally engraved though and still in the box from the local place that an ex got it, so it might be a bit funny | 18:46 |
| penguin42 | ah, personally engraved probably doesn't add much, unless it's a generic one :-) | 18:47 |
| daftykins | i remember cringing on seeing it the first time, it's an I.D. bracelet with 'Dave' on it, not sure how i'd forget my own name | 18:48 |
| penguin42 | daftykins: Well, that's the thing, Dave is a very good name | 18:49 |
| daftykins | :D that it is! | 18:50 |
| penguin42 | when you take it back to the place, you'll find out which Dave it was originally made for | 18:52 |
| daftykins | it was a gift from an ex, so it was mine | 18:52 |
| diddledan | daftykins: you're supposed to chuck gifts from the ex when you split | 18:53 |
| diddledan | or better still burn them in an effigy | 18:53 |
| daftykins | haha, yeah... i did close to that though by leaving it behind at my parents place for years | 18:54 |
| daftykins | today i spent a couple of hours cleaning out drawers of old junk, quite like the idea of minimising clutter ahead of when the house works finish and i get things back | 18:54 |
| daftykins | horrifying how much we hold onto if not kept in check, i had a bunch of the pamphlets for a new bank account i created in Portsmouth when i went to Uni, ridiculous :D | 18:55 |
| diddledan | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-dwmYeLLng | 18:55 |
| diddledan | err | 18:55 |
| diddledan | wrong one | 18:55 |
| diddledan | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkiix0aveRk | 18:55 |
| diddledan | ^ that | 18:55 |
| daftykins | heh i'd never seen that but had people quote it to me | 18:56 |
| diddledan | hmm, how bad is this gonna be: 10 greatest hackers of all time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yp7min0TOiY | 18:58 |
| daftykins | "x anything" is bound to be quite trashy :) | 19:00 |
| zmoylan-samj3 | if it names names then they are ipso facto not the best hackers :-D | 19:18 |
| diddledan | zmoylan-pixi: you hop devices far too often :-p | 20:10 |
| diddledan | speaking of devices, what happened to all the hype from a couple years ago about phones moving to saphire screens?! | 20:10 |
| zmoylan-pixi | <_< >_> keeping ahead of big brother... :-P | 20:11 |
| zmoylan-pixi | that and smartphone sucky battery life... | 20:11 |
| zmoylan-pixi | super duper indestructible ever lasting batteries is the new fusion power... | 20:12 |
| zmoylan-pixi | we can make artifical diamonds now, why not make a phone case out of that? | 20:12 |
| penguin42 | diddledan: They couldn't make them big enough | 20:14 |
| daftykins | Apple had that company in the US trying but they couldn't refine the process, there was a very ugly split over it | 20:16 |
| zmoylan-pixi | they could limit breakages by havibg glass on only 1 flippin side... | 21:21 |
| zmoylan-pixi | making the surface of the exterior not so smooth as to slip out of hand so easily | 21:24 |
| zmoylan-pixi | add a 1-2 mm rim around outside of screen so that when laid down on flat surface it makes no contact to be scratched... | 21:25 |
| daftykins | most just buy a case (: | 22:04 |
| zmoylan-pixi | a lot of people who spend a grand on a phone are not going to want to stick it in a case... | 22:10 |
| daftykins | oh that model specifically, meh | 22:13 |
| daftykins | we care not for such fools :D | 22:13 |
| zmoylan-pixi | i wonder how long before i see one in a queue in a shop with a cracked screen | 23:05 |
| daftykins | only Apple shops will be able to deal right now :) | 23:06 |
| zmoylan-pixi | ireland the hq of apple in the eu has no apple shops... | 23:17 |
