[10:14] allo allo [13:50] \o hi all [13:51] o/ [13:55] \o/ [13:57] the three musketeers are back in formation \o/ [13:57] /o\ [13:58] ooh the UAP-AC-LITE APs from Ubiquiti have WPA3 firmware available [13:59] :-o [13:59] WPA3?! :-o [13:59] I wonder if that means my AC-LR Pro has it, too [13:59] hey hey Neil from RMC just replied \o/ [13:59] omg.! [14:00] is this private comms or on the comments section of a video? [14:01] he's accepted my offer to send the Psion and accessories over and so has given me his address by email [14:01] ooh [14:01] I look forward to the video featuring "things a friend of mine sent" [14:01] :D [14:02] could be a long time but fingers crossed he'd be interesting, mmm [14:02] doesn't seem to mention the decision regarding fixing her up though, may have to double check [14:02] his renovation work on the new(ish) cave is impressive work [14:02] i mean he does do the refurbs on the channel of course, so maybe he'd want to fix it himself [14:02] mmm, very neat space [14:03] it's a beautiful building, too [14:10] i think he just started that trend of wanting postcards from places people send things in from, so i will have to look for a nice Guernsey one out in the local shops :D [14:11] would be rude not to include some local fudge, too [14:28] he has the technology, he can rebuild it :-) [14:33] 6 million dollars is a bit expensive tho [14:35] for a psion, no, totally worth it!. ::hugs 3mx:: [14:36] :D [14:37] probably going to be a fair few quid on postage just to get it over to him, plus tax hassles :| [14:37] feeling especially smug today with my psion when irish health care system has just been hammered by ransomware and back to paper and pencil [14:37] ugh not another one [14:39] truly disgusting that i should pay money to the UK gov solely for an item going over to become an exhibit in this case [14:40] can't you declare it as a gift? [14:40] nah, that hasn't been a strategy for decades [14:40] it's desktop calculator circa 1990s :-P [14:40] hmm. put its value at £0.01? [14:41] but then if they mess up in shipping you get no compensation see, that's the gamble [14:41] aah [14:41] damn [14:41] so you're either honest and get slapped for tax... or you cross your fingers [14:42] hmm, looks like gifts are quite restricted now, as you say: https://www.gov.uk/goods-sent-from-abroad/gifts [14:43] also, £39 max: VAT is charged on all goods (except for gifts worth £39 or less) [14:43] https://www.gov.uk/goods-sent-from-abroad/tax-and-duty [14:43] yip, seeing the same statements on guernseypost.com [14:44] do you get stung with import customs (excise) in addition to VAT? [14:44] don't think i've ever bought anything that has [14:44] might be worth waiting till you are next over on the mainland for work and carry it over the border for postage here [14:45] unlikely i'll be coming over tbh, although i could check and see if someone else is [14:45] it's a bit of an ask though, heh [14:46] aye [14:50] did ya'll see the mac mini got an upgrade the other day? they've shoved a 10Gbit ethernet in it now [14:52] $100 to upgrade by the looks [14:52] heh yeah, so weird the way they position those things [14:52] which looks like it means £100 to upgrade. gotta love the Apple-USD-to-GBP conversion [14:55] nice, neighbour's son just started doing some power tool work on the walls at the back of their place [14:55] oh joy [14:56] that's one thing I hate ;-p [14:56] there's so much all around me at the moment, huge towering scaffolds above and below me on the lane my place is on [15:10] hah the clowns, they must have made a mess over the wall onto my decking so he climbed over and used some kinda blower to let it all slip between the boards and hide the evidence [15:17] cheaky [15:45] odd, surely the perfect time for that is 9am on a sunday morning :-P [15:46] that's when the pressure washing contractor dude likes to visit a nearby office :| [15:47] https://youtu.be/-3Ns_n_7QzU [15:47] more LGR Blerb fun! [20:10] a guy i worked with kept a 8" tv under his desk for big sports games on during work hours. they used to be so handy. now you have an app on your phone you hope will run fast enough [20:34] i used to have a little casio portable TV, 1.x" display [20:34] i could make it show old games consoles by just touching the antenna connections xD [20:38] 1" display... perfect for watching tv shows on the road. honestly officer it couldn't distract a fly :-P [20:39] i should have mounted it to the bars of my bikes! [20:41] my brother had a bike fm radio from late 70s. something like this http://www.palmbeachbiketours.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/archer-am-bike-radio-back.jpg [20:41] :D [20:42] so you cycle along and annoy everyone :-P [20:43] the faster paced version of the modern equivalent where it's the shrill chirp of bad music coming from a phone, or people wandering around in a call on speaker! [20:44] the people who walk along with phone in front of their face like they're blowing on tea in a saucer :-P [20:45] someone nearby is listening to Whitney Houston's I will always love you [20:48] :D [20:53] there are worse songs [20:56] my my, ol' RMC's mill is not where i imagined, may be kinda neat in some distant future to check it out in person once he opens things up [20:57] pretty reachable for a wild diddledan too :O [20:57] outside, in natural daylight, diddledan? :-P [20:57] well, we can dream [20:58] dangerous thinking there [20:58] all we have to do is lure him with talk of beer and vintage Apple kit, possibly [20:58] but then shauno tried the same once and you didn't make it eh? ;) [20:59] * daftykins remembers all [21:37] There's no radio on my bike but I probably annoy car people just by being out there.
