|
7:01:53 PM | ABQTKY | Jeff, what's the show topic...for tomorrow?
|
7:03:35 PM | agamotto | What, did Rogers go out across the country?
|
7:03:35 PM | Whiskey_Zero | Looks like Ontario for sure...
|
7:03:38 PM | ABQTKY | I knew Robbie should have set up a couple of WokTennas and used his home connection! Oh, well.
|
7:05:46 PM | agamotto | Woktennas.... dishy dish wallas!!!!
|
7:06:38 PM | JeffWeston | robbief and topic is making a retro gaming system on raspberry pi
|
7:07:53 PM | bigkitty | ono

|
7:08:38 PM | JeffWeston | *SHOW ALERT* for anyone just joining, our studio internet is down and this prevents us from airing live tonight. The show will be uploaded tomorrow. However tonight I will be in the chat room during the show taking questions and trying to fit them into the show
|
7:09:48 PM | ABQTKY | The new Pi 3 has approximately the power of a Pentium 3, so I suppose one could run games on one of those. Like maybe Solitaire?
|
7:09:57 PM | revdjenk | ABQTKY: hee hee
|
7:10:15 PM | agamotto | The Bard's Tale?
|
7:12:26 PM | revdjenk | What is the power use of the Pi 3? Would it be a good as server? I have never run a home network, but this seems like a possible start for me.
|
7:12:26 PM | orangeman | has program sarted yet as not getin streem
|
7:13:02 PM | agamotto | orangeman: There won't be a show tonight... .net problems in Ontario
|
7:13:42 PM | revdjenk | time for a new show alert JeffWeston
|
7:13:42 PM | ABQTKY | The four USB ports AND the Ethernet port all share a single controller, so it could make a great server, but not a FAST server.
|
7:14:00 PM | revdjenk | ABQTKY: they don't necessarily have to be fast...right?
|
7:14:09 PM | orangeman | ok tanks I tought problem at my end
|
7:14:22 PM | ABQTKY | guess not Revdjenk
|
7:14:36 PM | JeffWeston | if any one has a tech question feel free to ask and we will try to get it into the show
|
7:15:16 PM | revdjenk | JeffWeston: see my Q above about the pi3 as a home network server...

|
7:28:15 PM | ABQTKY | Jeff, cable internet service is what Robbie has at home, no?? That would be fine for streaming...even at HD. The studio just happens to be an area with no...cables.
|
7:28:28 PM | agamotto | Hmmm, how to toss a virtual baby shower...
|
7:29:03 PM | revdjenk | agamotto: it'd be hard to play the clothes pin game...

|
8:30:07 PM | RobbieF1 | :)
|
8:34:41 PM | ABQTKY | We Cat5 fans are very well trained. We sit here even staring at a blank screen even after we know the internet service is down across Ontario. BTW, the DirecTV satellite tv service down here had a nationwide outage for a few hours. It's either sunspots or backhoe drivers who are respionsible for this stuff!
|
8:41:11 PM | RobbieF1 | aww
|
