[00:18] <diddledan> isn't the pi3 an A53?
[00:51] <zmoylan-pi> not a lot of pi in that... :-P
[08:33] <ali1234> diddledan: yes it is, but raspbian etc do not use 64 bit mode, so it's kind of crippled
[09:45] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[12:05] <foobarry> i have an FPGA
[12:06] <foobarry> diddledan: although haven't done anything with it yet
[12:06] <foobarry> took a few days to install the software to manage the beast
[13:02] <foobarry> how does minecraft android version compare with PC version? would i need a controller/keyboard?
[14:13] <daftykins> surely that depends on what kind of android device for what input methods it has
[14:36] <zmoylan-pi> you can plug in a lot of usb peripherals using otg these days. slap on a hub and plug in a keyboard, mouse and joystick :-P
[16:01] <ali1234> it doesn't "need" a keyboard and mouse but it is largely unplayable without one

[16:29] <m0nkey_> my last tweet ranting towards apple was my 666th tweet. coincidence? i think not.
[16:29] <daftykins> ah, what was it about? :)
[16:29] <m0nkey_> stupid apple, forcing my laptop to download the high sierra installer
[16:30] <m0nkey_> I never pulled it down
[16:30] <m0nkey_> It was a fresh install of Sierra because of the bullshit with High Sierra. i downgraded because Sierra just works better.
[16:30] <m0nkey_> And APFS is just so slow
[16:31] <daftykins> i didn't think you were an Apple type
[16:31] <daftykins> you really are not-shauno!
[16:31] <daftykins> ;D
[16:32] <m0nkey_> holy crap, they replied. they "like to understand more about this" .... indeed.
[16:34] <daftykins> i don't believe a word of the folk who claimed 10 installed without their consent ;)
[16:34] <daftykins> you know what folk are like with grumpily 'dismissing' pop ups (not saying you did, just made me think of that)
[16:35] <m0nkey_> I saw a popup, I clicked on the no button, but it appears the installer was pulled down anyway.
[16:35] <daftykins> mmm no doubt, only way it can run!
[16:36] <m0nkey_> I hate all these forced updates
[16:37] <daftykins> especially from that company
[16:37] <m0nkey_> My laptop is pretty old for a Mac. Bought it in 2012.
[16:38] <daftykins> a mate in Long Island was just telling me about how their local Apple shop told his family that the iPhone 6 they brought in was dead, so sold them on an 8 Plus...
[16:38] <daftykins> he picked it up, did the software restore via his PC, fixed in minutes
[16:39] <m0nkey_> There is now a wifi driver for this laptop for FreeBSD. Need to compile the kernel module and recompile the kernel, it works and everything but since it's a new driver is unstable as heck.
[16:39] <daftykins> would it not lack a lot of advisable power management stuffs on such a machine?
[16:40] <m0nkey_> actually, thats one of the things that does work
[16:40] <m0nkey_> everything works except the wifi
[16:40] <m0nkey_> and bluetooth
[16:56] <m0nkey_> Apple Support are saying it's because I have automatic updates enabled for macOS
[16:56] <m0nkey_> I look at my settings, that option is disabled.
[16:58] <daftykins> haha, don't give up, sir
[19:36] <zmoylan-pi> yes... but you're talking to 'apple geniuses' :-P
[19:51] <foobarry> stable apple geniuses
