immulunch, with family and watching movie Raies11:12
immui got my self Mibox11:19
BluesKajimmu, mibox?11:23
immuwait11:24
immuhttp://www.mi.com/en/mibox/ runs on Andriod TV11:25
BluesKajlooks impressive, suppose all those streams require subscriptions11:31
BluesKajlooks like kodi on steroids :-)11:33
immuKodi is also available in the google play store , it can be rigged for more open streams ;)11:35
BluesKajthis pc is connected to my tv via hdmi already so it works ok with kodi, but only ok, but not not very well, a lot of streams they have listed as default don't connect ...i would guess less then 50% actually work11:39
BluesKajless than11:39
BluesKajand that includes geographic vpn server locations all over the US, Europe and Asia ... kodi doesn't live up to the hype it's given on google IMO11:46
immuyou have a VPN server>11:46
BluesKajI use a vpn client that connexts to vpn servcers, yes11:47
BluesKajopenvpn protocol, on PIA VPN11:48

pauljwhi everyone12:46
BluesKajhi pauljw13:09
pauljwhi BluesKaj :)13:09
BluesKajpauljw, , how's your internet connection these days , stable?13:10
pauljwseems to be doing okay now.  don't know what it's problem was.13:11
BluesKajok13:11
pauljwit seems that the last time i rebooted the modem, it was assigned an ip addr that is banned here on irc.  if i'm not using a vpn i can't login.  hoping another reboot will pick a winner... :)13:13
BluesKajwhoa, that's odd13:15
pauljwyeah, it happened to me once before when i first started using hughesnet.13:16
pauljwin fact, since i'm the only one using the net at the moment, i'll reboot now and see what i get.  biab...13:18
pauljwthat did it... :)13:25
JimBunbtuYAY13:34
BluesKajheh now my ISP is acting up ...internet dropped for no apparent reason14:19
ducassehi pauljw - all well?15:25
pauljwhey ducasse, yep, all is well here. thx.  you?15:46
ducassepauljw: all well, thanks. getting ready for a daytrip to sweden tomorrow.15:49
pauljwthat's how mine was acting the other day, BluesKaj.  when i accessed the modem directly it was showing a random transmit error.  seems to have corrected itself.  most likely weather.15:49
pauljwoh fun, ducasse :)15:49
ducassejust to do some shopping, certain things are cheaper across the border :)15:50
pauljw:)15:52
BluesKajpauljw, we use voip phone service and yesterday several phone calls just dropped out15:55
pauljwhmmm, hope it straightens out for you.15:56
pauljwthat's why i still keep a landline here.15:57
BluesKajjust checked he phone line again and it seems very quiet compared to alll noises on it yesterday so think the techs solved a problem there.16:04
pauljw:D16:05
ducassegopal just won't stop, will he?17:29
pauljwseems not17:30
pauljwbbl guys...17:36
hggdhwell, at least now he seems to be actually trying to find out if older kernels would work18:07
hggdhbut I would first try checking the hardware: take out the battery, measure it with a voltmeter, wait a few hours, measure it again, verify there is no significant drop in volts, rinse & repeat18:09
hggdhthen look at BIOS set up, for WOL, or other setting that would have power applied even if the machine is powered off18:10
hggdhthen test older kernels18:10
hggdhhe seems to be in the "test other kernels" phase18:10
ducassehe's been there before, iirc18:15
hggdhall I remember is him stating it did not happen with Windows18:15
ducasseat this point i no longer care, thinking about /ignore'ing him18:15
