[19:55]  * zxmpi pokes wobbly internet connection
[20:04]  * daftykins hands over the emergency tape
[20:04] <daftykins> might be challenging to use for a wireless connection, but i believe in you!
[20:08] <zxmpi> was a convergence of flamingo ups. went down on a bank holiday weekend, no prob. can wait till tuesday. tech support: your ap is ancient we'll send a tech on thursday. tech support arrives and finds line is dead. we need to re run cable. please hold...
[20:09] <daftykins> o0
[20:10] <daftykins> pretty much blamed everything except your computer(s)!
[20:10] <zxmpi> my pi abides
[20:11] <zxmpi> tried using libera chat on web interface but it barfed every attempt. tried setting up irc on dumb nokia via java client but it didn't play as nice as freenode. will have to try again later
[20:11] <daftykins> hrmm
[20:12] <daftykins> and to think, whilst you were gone the channel suddenly roared back into life with a dozen active chatters each day complaining of the winter weather!
[20:12] <daftykins> ...just kidding ;)
[20:13] <zxmpi> did make me think of an alternate config for home irc. picked up a mifi. might use a newer rasp pi connected via cable to that for a backup irc connection
[20:23] <daftykins> sounds like a plan, genii used to run quassel i think it was on one but the logging killed the microSD card xD
[20:27] <zxmpi> i'll stick with console based apps. might be time to make it accessible from outside home network though
[20:44] <daftykins> i think that's what that one does, can connect in from irssi or hexchat or anything as i understand it
[21:18] <daftykins> low stock around here, let's see if i can struggle through that rubbish chocolate orange from the other day
[21:19]  * zxmpi stocked up on generic kitkats today.
