Coffee Break - June 1, 2020

Coffee Break schedule adjustments and the results of a staff meeting. Raspberry Pi vs. ODROID for Zoom camera shots, and Robert's new crypto feature. Solbu turns 47 on Wednesday, and Robbie lays down the law about personal questions. bp9 has something en-route. Could it be a Pinebook Pro? Or a PinePhone? Thinking of Pinebook Pro gets us talking about ANSI vs. ISO, and Robbie thinks he's figured out what ANSI stands for: American, not stupid ISO. bp9 struggles to get a good connection between the PineTime and Raspberry Pi, and shows us how tiny the solder joints are. Robbie Ferguson is joined by bp9, Solbu, MarshMan and Peter Lewis.
