| brolin_empey | Hurrian: I do not mind the TouchWiz style/theme at least on KitKat for the Galaxy Note 3. Anyway: https://www.ebay.ca/p/Gigabyte-Technology-GA-G41MT-S2PT-LGA-775-Socket-T-Intel-Motherboard/115197016 Apparently one of these Socket T + DDR3 motherboards with all solid capacitors will cost around 65 CAD each for me to buy including shipping from Asia to Canada. The advantage of continuing to use Socket T is that I can reuse the now low cost CPUs I already | 02:51 |
|---|---|---|
| brolin_empey | have but I will have to buy new DDR3 DIMMs because the Socket T motherboards I currently use use DDR2. How much more would it cost to buy an LGA1366 or newer motherboard with all solid capacitors and a CPU and DDR3 or newer DIMMs for it, for at least 8 GiB total? I gather that this Socket T + DDR3 motherboard needs 2×4-GiB DIMMs for 8 GiB total but that DDR3 motherboards for newer socket types can use at least 8 GiB in a single DIMM. If I have to buy new | 02:51 |
| brolin_empey | DIMMs in any case if I want to upgrade from motherboards with electrolytic capacitors to motherboards with all solid capacitors, and considering that I have already been using Socket T + DDR2 motherboards for close to a decade by now, it seems like it makes more sense to spend a little more to upgrade to a newer CPU socket type than Socket T so that I can use at least 8 GiB in a single DIMM. I know I could research this stuff by myself but it is currently | 02:51 |
| brolin_empey | a low priority because the computer whose motherboard requires repair or replacement is not currently needed and I have other, higher priority projects. | 02:51 |

| brolin_empey | If you use a recent smartphone running Android on x86, such as the Asus ZenFone 2, is it possible to run Windows NT for x86 in a virtual computer hosted on Android? I do not know how usable that would be in practice if you need external peripherals such as input devices and a larger display but it would be neat to have a single easily pocketable computer that can run commercial, closed-source desktop applications in addition to recent mobile applications | 07:11 |
| brolin_empey | and open-source stuff that can be ported to GNU+Linux or Android. | 07:11 |
| brolin_empey | Wow, I had forgotten how heavy the Asus EeePC 701 is until I took one out of storage out of curiosity. | 07:21 |
| brolin_empey | I guess it is normal for old notebook computers because the Dell Latitude X1 feels similarly heavy. I guess I forgot how heavy notebook computers are because I usually use only desktop computers and a handheld computer. | 07:24 |
| Maxdamantus | brolin_empey: I imagine you could run Wine on such devices. | 07:51 |
| brolin_empey | Maxdamantus: Yes, I realise that. Also, a Windows application that can be built from source with GNU tools can be built with Winelib to run on GNU+Linux on ARM since years ago. | 08:37 |
| brolin_empey | Is there a low-cost ARM Linux SBC with native/direct ATA connectivity? | 08:50 |
| brolin_empey | Either PATA or SATA but probably SATA in this case. | 08:51 |
| brolin_empey | Apparently lots of ARM Linux SBCs have SATA connectivity but I do not know what the price range is for such computers. | 08:59 |
| bencoh | depends on what you define as "cheap", and what you're expecting from said product | 09:00 |
| brolin_empey | I forgot that I used a Boundary Devices Nitrogen something ARM Linux SBC with SATA connectivity at work years ago. | 09:01 |
| KotCzarny | espressobin is in the range of 40-50usd | 13:00 |
| KotCzarny | (marvel soc) | 13:00 |
| KotCzarny | anything else is mostly relying on minipcie nowadays | 13:01 |

| Wizzup | KotCzarny: maybe set up autojoin ;p | 13:03 |
| KotCzarny | wizzup: it's a problem of +flag on channel | 13:04 |
| KotCzarny | unregistered nick wasnt able to join i think | 13:04 |
| KotCzarny | - #maemo-leste :Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services - see | 13:04 |
| KotCzarny | and i think +r is no longer needed | 13:05 |
| KotCzarny | spam quieted down | 13:05 |
| Wizzup | KotCzarny: set -r | 13:08 |
| KotCzarny | yeah, also, maybe +s might be sensible | 13:09 |
| KotCzarny | those spam bots usually scan people's channels | 13:09 |
| Wizzup | meh :) | 13:10 |
| KotCzarny | /dev/sda1 contains a file system with errors, check forced. | 13:11 |
| KotCzarny | that's MEH. | 13:11 |
| KotCzarny | 1.4T to check, eh | 13:11 |
