[13:59:30] <SemperOSS> Moving house is a hassle!
[14:00:37] <Bytram> SemperOSS: Well, just move everything onto the yard and then house should be quite a bit lighter... that should make it easier to move the house!
[14:00:42] <Bytram> ;)
[14:01:15] <SemperOSS> Bytram: Thank you for your wise advice!

[14:01:43] <Bytram> but seriously, moving IS a pain.

[14:02:08] <upstart> ^ 03On being rich and leaving things alone by Henry David Thoreau (Gurteen Knowledge)
[14:02:25] <Bytram> not bad going from memory!
[14:02:37] * SemperOSS is impressed!

[14:03:42] * Bytram was *extremely* fortunate to have a teacher who instilled a love of "proverbs" in me... nurtured that sense of "Huh? WOW!" upon reading something having genuine "weight"
[14:03:49] * Bytram has been collecting htem ever since
[14:04:18] <SemperOSS> I've moved into an oversized caravan so the local charities are going to be very happy
[14:05:09] <SemperOSS> And very rich according to Thoreau
[14:05:09] <Bytram> YardSale++
[14:05:09] <Bender> karma - yardsale: 1
[14:05:48] <Bytram> just put it on the lawn, make a big sign "Make me an offer", and you'll at least get something for what you would otherwise "discard"
[14:06:05] <Bytram> rich, indeed and, in deed.
[14:06:35] <SemperOSS> I can't be bothered trying to sell the stuff
[14:06:59] <Bytram> hire a kid to do it for you?
[14:07:06] <SemperOSS> On the other hand, I've got a Franken-contraption setup for Internet and "landline" phone
[14:09:51] <SemperOSS> MiFi box for wireless Internet, Raspberry Pi for "house" server and ethernet-to-wireless access, VoIP box on ethernet, DECT phones on VoIP box and a BluRay player on the ethernet
[14:10:48] <Bytram> hmmm
[14:11:24] <Bytram> so... you use the wireless on the RPi to connect to the MiFi??
[14:11:49] <Bytram> or is there an ethernet port on both the MiFi and the RPi ??
[14:12:05] <SemperOSS> Yup, as the MiFi box hasn't got anything but WiFi
[14:12:59] <SemperOSS> It's one of those little boxes meant for bringing to a festival
[14:13:06] <Bytram> kinda similar boat, here... but I just (wirelessly) tether my phone for internet access from my laptop, but have been thinking of getting another system and have been pondering how best to set things up.
[14:13:22] <Bytram> do you run PieHole (sp?) on your RPi ??
[14:13:29] <Bytram> #g piehole RPi
[14:13:30] <MrPlow> https://pi-hole.net - "GitHub. Expand child menu. Core · Web · FTL · Community Expand child menu. Discourse · Reddit · Twitter · About Expand child menu. Contact · Privacy ..."
[14:13:31] <upstart> ^ 03Pi-hole®: A black hole for Internet advertisements
[14:13:51] <SemperOSS> No, but I've thought about it
[14:14:03] <Bytram> was not very close.. but close enough!
[14:14:06] <Bytram> nod nod
[14:14:42] * Bytram is in the market for an inexpensive box that can drive a 4K UHD TV as a monitor on which I could load some generic Linux distro
[14:14:51] <SemperOSS> The problem is that I need to set up the RPi as the access point, really, which means another WiFi adapter
[14:15:02] <Bytram> ideally, want a laptop so I can take it with me =)
[14:15:12] <Bytram> ahh, nod nod
[14:16:09] <SemperOSS> Yeah, there are quite a few "media" boxes but they are almost all not open in the tinkering sense
[14:16:35] * Bytram checks craigslist
[14:21:14] <SemperOSS> Bytram: Have you seen that it is possible to install Kodi on an Amazon Fire TV? Full 4K brilliance!
[14:21:43] <Bytram> nope, that's news to me, but I am not really interested in media
[14:22:00] <Bytram> only enough to play a dvd or a downloaded youtube vid
[14:22:16] <Bytram> and, i avoid amazon
[14:22:28] <SemperOSS> Aha
[14:22:47] <Bytram> just need a bigger screen with moah pixels
[14:23:08] <Bytram> currently have a 24-inch monitor with 1920x1200 resolution
[14:23:34] <Bytram> there are some great sales with 40-43inch 4K UHD TVs for ~$300
[14:24:41] <SemperOSS> I bought a cheap-ish Panasonic BluRay player with Netflix and Youtube built in
[14:26:17] <SemperOSS> Plays my CDs, DVDs and BluRays, but not my HD-DVD videos
[14:28:46] * Bytram wonders if integrated Intel graphics can drive 4K? 620? 630? and what kind of port(s) would that be supported on? Most of the TVs I'm looking at are all HDMI
[14:29:22] <Bytram> ISTR most have like 3 HDMI, but no idea if it is 1.3 or 1.4 or whatever.

[14:32:47] <Bytram> clicky
[14:32:54] * SemperOSS has an Asus 4K laptop
[14:36:03] <Bytram> SemperOSS++ Super Helpful!!
[14:36:03] <Bender> karma - sempeross: 2
[14:36:10] <Bytram> SemperOSS++ Thanks for that!
[14:36:10] <Bender> karma - sempeross: 3
[14:36:18] <SemperOSS> You're welcome
[14:36:35] <Bytram> so, it looks like my Core 2 Duo wouldn't quite do it. /S
[14:37:21] <SemperOSS> Not according to that article
[14:37:30] * Bytram was joking
[14:37:51] <Bytram> even the extra Nvidea chip isn't much help =)
[14:42:58] <Bytram> whelp, is time for me to be going about my day.
[14:43:36] <Bytram> SemperOSS: nice chatting with ya and I hope your move goes smoothly!
[14:43:58] <Bytram> SemperOSS++ thanks again for the laptop / processor info
[14:43:58] <Bender> karma - sempeross: 4
[14:44:01] <Bytram> laters
[14:44:21] <SemperOSS> Bytram: You too! I've got some serious reading to do, so I'd better get going.
[14:44:29] <SemperOSS> Enjoy your Sunday!
[14:44:34] <Konomi> my partner just decided that the chopping board shall be oiled with the bacon oil
[14:45:39] <Konomi> I have mixed feelings about this
[14:45:39] <SemperOSS> Hmm, bacon? I'd probably try something not quite as conspicuously tasty
[14:46:15] <Konomi> it was more just from having bacon on it
[14:47:11] <SemperOSS> Yeah, I thought so. Well used wooden chopping board?
[14:47:55] <Konomi> yeah
[14:49:26] <SemperOSS> Awwww. My then partner complained a bit when the newly bought, wooden chopping board fell apart when I tried to speed the oil absorption process by heating it slightly in the oven. Glue melted and disaster struck!
[14:53:32] <Konomi> dot, yeah I would too don't do that ;p
[14:54:34] <SemperOSS> Live and learn, as they say
