Re: [SLUG] Android PC's for hacking

2012-07-03 Thread Dave Kempe
I got one in the office - delivery was fast and it seems to work OK. Haven't 
had a chance to put Ubuntu on it yet, but it seems like a plausable option for 
some uses. Thin client perhaps.

Hmm... maybe serendipity...

Just today I started looking for a wifi gadget to set up a wifi music 
system for several rooms at work. I guess you could use VLC and stream 
from a central server to several of these connected to powered speakers? 
Or is there an easier way to do it?

[SLUG] fixing wrong search result?

2012-07-03 Thread lists
somehow, I have a situation(1) where google search for 'aaa' tld locates
'bbb' tld as first hit, followed by (correct) 'aaa' hits

so, searching for 'aaa' tld and clicking on 1st hit, takes you to bbb.tld

is there anything I can do to 'speed up' fixing this ?

(1)(as a consequence of virtual server mis config, since fixed, where
'aaa' html files ended in 'bbb')

After months of waiting my Pi arrived at the post office this week ready
for me to collect.

I was only allowed to order 1.

I'm hoping i wont have to wait months again if i want to order another.

Kind Regards.

What is the situation in Sydney for Raspberry Pi?  Available?

I am in USA and have laid my hands on some.  If not available in
Sydney, I would be happy to donate a couple to anyone (pref. student
or teacher) who cannot get one and would give them a good home.
It has good HDMI!
