| zxmpi | 'Britain Seeks to Build a Homegrown OpenAI Rival, Become a World Leader in AI' an iq of 3000 isn't that great, it's the same as 6000 p.e. teachers :-P | 12:36 |

| daftykins | hmm i spotted a new Galaxy product in the shop just now, Galaxy flutes... i will have to conduct some science | 18:48 |
| zxmpi | haven't had a galaxy in yonks | 18:49 |
| daftykins | pretty decent chocolate in the 'smooth' form, although i think i enjoy dairy milk more | 18:50 |
| zxmpi | have gone off cadbury since kraft took over | 18:52 |
| zxmpi | had a 99 and the flake tasted like wax | 18:52 |
| daftykins | :( | 18:53 |
| zxmpi | so now usually but lidl aldi chocolate | 18:53 |
| daftykins | there's progress on my fibre, i lifted the street cover outside mine and see the blue rope in place as a pull-through between it and the point it emerges on my front wall... also a much longer length runs down the whole centre channel running the length of my lane | 18:56 |
| daftykins | no idea how much longer it'll be! | 19:03 |
| daftykins | i figure they'll run the thicker outdoor stuff in black down the conduits and up to a CBT on my outer wall - then there'll be another wait until i can sign up and actually get the internal run laid | 19:04 |
| penguin42 | CBT? | 21:08 |
| daftykins | connectorised block terminal | 21:08 |
| penguin42 | oh, so then they just plug in a premade fibre to that? | 21:13 |
| daftykins | it looks like they might terminate their thicker spec ones for the main feed, then again for all the slave connections headed into customer premises | 21:15 |
| daftykins | i'm not sure what they'll do for mine since it'll be <10m to get inside | 21:16 |
| penguin42 | I might look at Fibre later in the year; I've got a Virgin cable deal coming to the end, which means I'll need to phone them and hastle their price down again...or try Youfibre (aka Netomnia) which has just been doing the area | 21:18 |
| zxmpi | a nice bit of coax to cover the 10m :-) | 21:18 |
| daftykins | hah | 21:18 |
| penguin42 | meh, it's light, just aim in the right direction and hope no spiders get in the way | 21:19 |
| zxmpi | a nice simple cable to link up your house :-) https://i.imgur.com/wVWxGg9.mp4 | 21:26 |
| daftykins | that'll supply a nice small scale 56k ISP! ;) | 21:31 |
| penguin42 | and it doesn't clip :-) | 21:32 |
| penguin42 | hmm is that eniac? | 21:32 |
| penguin42 | oh yeh, the link says so | 21:33 |
| daftykins | you might both enjoy Usagi Electric's videos on the Bendix vacuum tube computer if you're not already familiar | 21:48 |
| daftykins | (over on youtube) | 21:48 |
| penguin42 | I saw one of them a while ago | 21:57 |
