[17:53:21] <upstart> ^ 03Eee PC 1000HD | Laptops | ASUS Global
[18:03:59] <AndyTheAbsurd> I have an Eee PC 900. It was kinda terrible even when it was new.
[18:05:59] <Bytram> oh, hi!
[18:06:37] <AndyTheAbsurd> hey
[18:06:39] <Bytram> well, the 1000HD was no speed demon, but it was fine for being exceptionally portable and browsing the web and lightweight computing tasks.
[18:07:06] <AndyTheAbsurd> now you've got me looking at Asus ZenBooks which are kinda what you just described, only more modern.
[18:07:08] <Bytram> IIRC, a 1GHz Atom, 120GB 7300RPM hard drive, and 2GB RAM
[18:07:43] <Bytram> or were the GHz and RAM the other way around? 2GHz and 1GB? Nah, think I had it right the first time.
[18:08:14] <AndyTheAbsurd> The one I have is a 900MHz Celeron and...uh...512MB of RAM?
[18:08:18] <Bytram> I still have it around somewhere, but the battery died on it, and the fan 'sputters' -- prolly needs a good blowing out. More RAM would help bunches, too.
[18:09:05] <Bytram> given the price of systems, today, would prolly be better off spending the money to get a new system rather than upgrade the old one.
[18:11:00] <Bytram> heh... this *just* appeared in the #rss-bot channel's feed: https://cloudconfusing.com
[18:11:01] <upstart> ^ 03E-Ink Monitors: Ready for Prime Time? | Cloud Confusing
[18:12:39] <Bytram> well, not very flattering to start off with:
[18:12:40] <Bytram> "Right from the start, let’s make it clear that these devices are expensive, they come from manufacturers you probably haven’t heard of, and they come with serious tradeoffs. So, generally speaking, E-Ink / e-paper displays are not very practical. They are slow (max of 40hz), expensive (at least twice the price of a professional great LED-backlit display), and use non-standard to setups."
[18:13:21] <AndyTheAbsurd> and still on the small side.
[18:13:39] <AndyTheAbsurd> I'd need four of them to get the same (physical) size I'm looking at right now.
[18:13:41] <Bytram> oh, yeah. :P
[18:14:09] <AndyTheAbsurd> resolution's pretty good, though.
[18:14:11] <Bytram> fine for a ultra-lowpower portable system, not so nifty for desktop use.
[18:14:15] <Bytram> nodnod
[18:14:51] <AndyTheAbsurd> I certainly wouldn't mind one as a laptop screen I'm not going to be gaming on. (ANd I don't do much gaming anyway.)
[18:14:51] * Bytram is SO grateful he snagged a 24-inch 1920x1200 over a dozen years ago, before 1920x1280 took over all monitors for a long stretch
[18:14:58] <Bytram> same here
[18:15:06] <Bytram> my only gaming is... Sudoku
[18:15:33] <Bytram> FWIW I generally can solve a middle-level difficulty puzzle in under 6 minutes.
[18:15:40] <Bytram> best is sub 3-minutes
[18:16:51] <AndyTheAbsurd> 1920x1200 is what I'm using, too.
[18:18:49] <Bytram> sorry, just bugged off for a minute to try myhand at sudoku and miplayed a number somewhere.
[18:18:52] <Bytram> *misplayed
[18:19:09] <AndyTheAbsurd> 16:10 is better than 16:9 for just about everything except watching movies, IMO.
[18:19:20] <AndyTheAbsurd> No problem, I had to chase a misbehaving cat.
[18:19:38] <Bytram> lol
[18:19:59] <Bytram> and, before the 1920x1200, I had 3 Viewsoniz 1600x1200 20-inch CRTs
[18:20:06] <Bytram> *Viewsonic
[18:21:43] <Bytram> now /me is curious... what WAS the cat doing?
[18:58:51] <chromas> 1x1 should be the new standard

[19:15:27] <Bytram> Traditional Haiku Structure
[19:15:27] <Bytram> Traditional haiku are always the same, including the following features:
[19:15:27] <Bytram> There are only three lines, totaling 17 syllables.
[19:15:27] <Bytram> The first line is 5 syllables.
[19:15:27] <Bytram> The second line is 7 syllables.
[19:15:29] <Bytram> The third line is 5 syllables like the first.
[19:15:31] <Bytram> Punctuation and capitalization are up to the poet, and need not follow rigid rules used in structuring sentences.
[19:15:34] <Bytram> A haiku does not have to rhyme, in fact usually it does not rhyme at all.
[19:15:36] <Bytram> Some haiku can include the repetition of words or sounds
[19:16:21] <chromas> 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
[19:16:21] <chromas> 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, e
