01:24 <@Dagmar> Fisker: Things didn't use to sparkle, actually
01:37 <@Dagmar> Mercster: Well,  the eee PCs that were shipping with SSDs had sort of a hybrid thing going on.  There was an 8Gb SDCard on a miniPCIe card, and a more normalish 32Gb miniPCIe SSD
01:38 <@Dagmar> Actually just about perfect for a netbook
01:38 <@Dagmar> Tomorrow, it gets shipped off to get the bloody motherboard repaired or replaced tho
01:38 <@Dagmar> So, in about a month I'll have an HP mini 110 to get rid of
01:41 < Mercster> strange
01:41 < Mercster> i dunno what formfactor my 32G ssd is
01:41 < Mercster> except its fucking tiny
01:42 < Mercster> i replaced the keyboard in this thing once, it was like doing molecular engineering
01:42 <@Dagmar> It's probably either mini PCIe (uncommon) or just a mini-SATA form factor
01:42 < Mercster> i needed a microscope to see what i was doing
01:42 <@Dagmar> Yeah, they definitely take making things small to newer, more obsessive levels with netbooks
01:43 <@Dagmar> THe CMOS reset function on the eee is not even a jumper cap
01:43 <@Dagmar> It's a pair of solder pads you have to short which are, I kid you not, about a millimeter and a half wide and just under 3mm tall
01:43 < Mercster> yeah
01:43 <@Dagmar> To short it I had to use my smallest eyeglass screwdriver
01:43 < Mercster> i believe it
01:44 < Mercster> the keyboard connector is ridiculous
01:44 <@Dagmar> It would have been easier to just short the pins on a PQGA chip or something

13:27 <@Dagmar> Dock will prolly be better if you don't need it being portable
14:11 < aestetix> So I've decided the best way to punish someone is to strap them into an electric chair and play the DDR "Butterfly" song on loop
14:11 < aestetix> And if they move, they get zapped a little bit. Not enough to kill them, but enough to induce pain
