06:48:51 <JarZ> http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/03/hands-on-with-the-9-inch-eee-pc/
06:48:52 <JarZ> awesome!
06:53:02 <Guest32214> i am, thanks!
06:54:20 Nick: Guest32214 is now known as damian
06:54:33 <damian> what's happened with that new form of battery that they were developing early last year
06:55:38 <damian> neat little device. the keys don't look too small considering how small the whole thing is
06:56:25 * /run: unable to open file 'gel'
06:56:27 * /run: unable to open file 'getrc'
07:02:31 <JarZ> you say that as though you haven't seen the eeepc that already exists..
07:02:46 <JarZ> new form of battery? unless you mean fuel cells... they're not really much new there
07:02:49 <JarZ> other than wild claims
07:03:00 <JarZ> which never eventuate into a product
07:10:34 <damian> uptime[2wks 1day 13hrs 9mins 15secs] great[11wks 2days 10hrs 9mins 13secs]
07:10:55 <damian> i haven't seen it :P
07:11:07 <damian> only seen the small viao's and the toshiba small pos
07:11:11 <Timegrinder> Is it the battery that's build out of nanotubes?
07:11:20 <damian> yeah, nanotubes .. i think
07:11:43 <damian> lots of thin strips of some random metal
07:12:09 <damian> that they 'couldnt previously store energy in', but figured out if they stretch it into small strips it works
07:12:11 <JarZ> Uptime on Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 2 (5.1 - 2600) - 2wks 3days 11hrs 18mins 11secs
07:12:14 <JarZ> win
07:12:15 <Timegrinder> oh right
07:12:20 <Timegrinder> Yeha, that's not what I'm talking about
07:12:26 <damian> well no idea!
07:12:31 <Timegrinder> the one I'm talking about is just an adaptation of li-poly batteries
07:12:44 <Timegrinder> which just increases the overall capacity of stored energy
07:12:48 <damian> it was ages i heard about it, and haven't heard anything since :P
07:12:59 <Timegrinder> yeah, I've heard of the one you're talking about, but I can't remember what it was
07:13:00 <JarZ> the eeepc is awesome. it's a tiny little linux based laptop with a 7" screen, flash memory storage, and costs under $500au
07:13:13 <JarZ> the 9" is obviously going to be even more awesome
07:13:14 <damian> ah k
07:13:45 <damian> oo @ zazz
07:15:03 <damian> i need to get a new antenna for my wifi so it picks up better in the loungeroom
07:15:10 <damian> that's the only thing limiting my media pc!
07:15:31 <Timegrinder> looks like your problem's solved andy :P
07:15:38 <Timegrinder> (close, but not quite)
07:15:43 <damian> what problemo yo
07:16:01 <Timegrinder> he wanted a media pc
07:16:09 <Timegrinder> but one of the small ones he was looking at didn't do ogg
07:16:27 <Timegrinder> oh, it does do above 720p
07:16:28 <Timegrinder> nice
07:16:30 <damian> ahh
07:16:55 <damian> it's pretty good for features vs. capacity
07:17:05 <Timegrinder> fuck the capacity, I'd try and get one without the hdd
07:17:40 <damian> nah, i like storage .. makes it so you can distrobute your shite easier
07:17:40 <Timegrinder> Firstly, don't need shit for capacity if you're streaming, secondly, you can upgrade the capacity
07:18:02 <damian> i have 200gb on my media pc that i'm not using because the wifi isn't good enough
07:18:05 <Timegrinder> seems to just be a plugin disk,
07:18:08 <JarZ> i saw that on zazz already
07:18:17 <JarZ> the specs aren't adequate
07:18:17 <damian> i'd be storing shite on there if it didn't take four hours to upload :P
07:18:56 <JarZ> i'll just get a new pc soon enough
07:19:16 <JarZ> not sure if i'll get a media centre type case or just a regular tower yet though
07:20:14 <damian> next to your tv it doesn't matter anyway!
07:20:22 <damian> mine's pretty symetrical
07:20:40 <damian> i have the ~12inch sub on one side of the tv and the old tower on the other side
07:20:52 <JarZ> nice
07:21:07 <JarZ> i'm more thinking about the noise and such anyway, though
07:21:16 <damian> and then Wii / PS2 and shitload of dvd's scattered everywhere else :P
07:21:25 <damian> pfft, noise!
07:21:31 <damian> that's what the surround sound is for!
07:21:50 <damian> amp is up and you can't hear yourself talk
07:22:15 <JarZ> ...my tv is in my bedroom
07:22:17 <damian> i should get myself a new surround system tho, they're only pissy little speakers
07:22:20 <damian> tsk tsk tsk.
07:22:28 <damian> do you still live with your dad?
07:22:56 <JarZ> nope, at mum's place
07:23:00 <damian> ah k
07:23:11 <JarZ> awesome, i have more money than i thought!
07:23:11 <damian> probably old news yea. haha
07:23:24 <JarZ> insurance was taken out of my account already
07:23:48 <JarZ> k work time bye!

11:12:21 Nick: Guest32214 is now known as damian
11:16:17 <ash> i've seen those tshirts.. it doesn't actually react on each band individually like a real graphic eq
11:16:27 <Timegrinder> heh yeah
11:16:28 <ash> as in, it has one constant pattern that just moves up and down with overall volume
11:16:55 <Carson> better than a static shirt though?
11:18:05 <ash> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGnxhI-9eMI
11:19:00 <JarZ> yeah

11:43:09 <Carson> http://cybernetnews.com/2008/02/29/watch-high-resolution-youtube-videos/
11:43:33 <Carson> it appears to only take affect with videos that are uploaded since the change has been in place
