| daftykins | goooooood morning! | 07:06 |
|---|---|---|
| * zxm-pi_ peeks out from under summer duvet which was totally wrong for last nights winter temps... | 07:40 | |
| daftykins | Murphy's law holding up there eh? :D | 07:40 |
| daftykins | would have remained warm if you didn't change it | 07:40 |
| zxm-pi_ | all i had to do was reach out and flip on leccy blanket but not cold enough for that but just a little too chilly | 07:41 |
| luna | morning | 07:45 |
| zxm-pi_ | somewhere out there is a big hot mug of tea... ::tries telekinesis to bring it closer:: | 07:48 |
| daftykins | hi luna | 07:49 |
| daftykins | got to nip out to my friend's wife's art gallery today with my Sherlock hat on, to diagnose wobbly broadband | 07:49 |
| daftykins | well i'm not pleased with the first MikroTik router i was trying out, it's to blame for their connection dropping and generally driving them mad | 18:38 |
| zxm-pi_ | wonky power? | 18:44 |
| daftykins | hrmm not sure on that one, whilst trying to debug the constant drops i swapped in another xDSL transceiver at which point it plain refused to authenticate, then when switching back to the last it refused as well | 18:48 |
| daftykins | factory reset and really basic config got it behaving, but i got word it failed again close to 5pm | 18:48 |
| zxm-pi_ | i had an ap that misbehaved a lot till i put a surge protector on it. when it would fail after that it was because the surge protector had been removed for 'reasons' | 20:36 |
| daftykins | hrmm, i'll have to do some study on that one | 20:39 |
| daftykins | so much less convenient when you have to go there and muck around with these inconsistent ones :( | 20:40 |
| zxm-pi_ | i hate intermittent problems. some take years to diagnose | 20:42 |
| zxm-pi_ | and then you have to explain them multiple times to the same people because they forget | 20:42 |
| daftykins | :D | 20:43 |
| zxm-pi_ | and/look up the notes on your psion to remember the exact sequence of events :-) | 20:43 |
| daftykins | \o/ | 20:44 |
| daftykins | G U *beep* | 20:44 |
| daftykins | no, i added that - that's right :) | 20:44 |
| zxm-pi_ | it still amazes me that in 1mb of rom they stuffed an entire os and apps that work so very well | 20:45 |
| daftykins | ooh i didn't know it was that small, holy moly | 20:45 |
| zxm-pi_ | it cheats iirc. it runs the os from rom so that it doesn't occupy and waste ram. | 20:46 |
| daftykins | smart! | 20:47 |
| daftykins | reminds me of RiscOS on the Acorns | 20:47 |
| zxm-pi_ | which means updates are just same software sitting in ram that is accessed before the rom version. | 20:48 |
| zxm-pi_ | riscos. another micro os that was tiny and packed in a helluva lot | 20:48 |
