23:21.01WallyI WAS HAVING WEIRD DREAMS LAST NIGHT.. ABOUT SAVING SOME FISH
23:21.04WallyWHAT
23:21.08WallyTHATS AN OUTRAGE.
23:21.19BlueMaximaWHY DO YOU THINK PEOPLE BEAT ME UP IN HIGH SCHOOL
23:21.35WallyBECAUSE... YOU DiDN'T HAVE A PYRA
23:22.01BlueMaximaTHAT TOO
23:22.42Wally:P
23:22.42BlueMaximaWHAT'S THE PREORDER TARGET FOR 1K UNITS AGAIN
23:22.56Wally900 IIRC
23:23.26BlueMaximaWALLY BUY 200 PYRAS

23:23.42WallyNO
23:23.46WallyTOO EXPENSIVE
23:23.47BlueMaxima:9
23:23.58BlueMaximaok I'm sick of holding shift :P
23:24.06WallyI am well trained at holding shift
23:24.31DocScrutinizer05already wondered what's wrong with his font
23:24.46WallyAnyway, I can't justify buying 200 units of something that i'd have to sell heavily and add additional cost so I can make profit.. I guess
23:25.13WallyI can see the Pyra being a success at tradeshows though I guess

23:32.39Wallyinfobot has been around since 2001?
23:32.41Wally699!
23:32.53BlueMaximaaka a taiwanese hooker!
23:32.55|51243hi, how functional will the pyra be as a phone ? I mean hardware-wise ?
23:33.07Wally|51243 ring ring ring banana phone.
23:33.20comradekinguhello future relatives snaking on my business
23:33.32comradekingusneaking!
23:33.34Lightkeygraz, |51243
23:33.49dTal|51243: harware-wise? it will have a phone modem so perfectly
23:34.06DocScrutinizer05it won't have an earpiece
23:34.07dTalit can even vibrate
23:34.46comradekinguIt's the best! Beats the rest
23:34.54DocScrutinizer05otherwise hw wise it should be fine
23:34.57comradekinguDon't need quarters, don't need dimes
23:34.57|51243does it have a micro ?
23:35.06comradekinguBejing-jing-jing-jing
23:35.09comradekingu^^
23:35.15Lightkeyif you stop plenking, ti will have a micro
23:35.15DocScrutinizer05|51243: afaik yes
23:35.37dTaldid someone let off laughing gas in here or something
23:35.50|51243so although it would be a bit awkward, one could use it as a phone, i mean in real life, holding it to your ear and so ?
23:36.15dTalholding-to-ear functionality is unconfirmed
23:36.17Lightkeystaahp iit, I want a microoo!
23:36.24DocScrutinizer05you don't even need to hold it to your ear
23:37.20dTalI'm gonna use mine like Austin Powers
23:37.24|51243well, i am really searching for a replacement for my AOSP HTC Legend which is getting old. I am happy to live with some awkwardness, however, i need a working phone
23:37.32DocScrutinizer05I dunno where the speakers are located, but likely they are in a position that makes it uncomfortable to press the speaker against your ear
23:37.59dTalyou don't know where the speakers are located?
23:38.03DocScrutinizer05|51243: I'm almost shy to suggest...
23:38.09dTalThey're under the speaker grilles
23:38.25DocScrutinizer05I dunno where those are, either
23:38.28|51243its a shame that still there is now working open source phone, i own a ubuntu phone, but its just unuseable
23:38.31dTalon the non-screen part, next to the hinge
23:38.42dTala fairly standard location on laptops too
23:38.53DocScrutinizer05ta
23:38.58LightkeyDocScrutinizer05 has not even looked at any of the pictures yet, I don't even..
23:39.42dTalDocScrutinizer05 I swear I am not picking on you but how did you not know that already?
23:39.52DocScrutinizer05I know an early schematics version, the 3D renders, and pandora ;-)
23:40.11|51243so really with the current design using it as a phone would be hard, with speakers at unsuitable locations, unconfirmed microphone
23:40.22|51243etc
23:40.35DocScrutinizer05I think mic is warranted
23:40.43dTalthe microphone is confirmed
23:40.50DocScrutinizer05emphasis on "I think"
23:40.59Lightkeyit wouldn't be hard, you could just use it holding like.. a handheld but if you want to use it like a mobile phone, then yes
23:41.12|51243so all thats missing would be a "secondary" speaker on the back
23:41.21DocScrutinizer05basically yes
23:41.32|51243hmm, i wonder if one could somehow hack that
23:41.42DocScrutinizer05sure, no problem
23:41.43dTalwhy a secondary speaker on the back?
23:41.52DocScrutinizer05dTal: for earpiece
23:42.00|51243you would need a secondary speaker on the backside which is enabled when the lid is closed
23:42.21dTalbut the mic is on the inside of the clamshell...
23:42.27|51243bugger
23:42.30dTalI think it's the little hole on the left...
23:42.34Lightkeyyou realise that now? :-D
23:43.35dTalactually an earpiece speaker above the screen might work
23:43.47DocScrutinizer05so maybe when it comes to phone usage, consider pyra on par with those tablets that need a headset to work as phone
23:43.57dTalthen you could use it open, like a flip phone
23:44.19dTalon second thoughts I don't think that works well dimensionally
23:44.23|51243yes, thats bad. it would be so cool if it could replace my phone and also be a full debian box
23:44.43|51243basically you would just need secondary speaker and microphone on the backside
23:45.10DocScrutinizer05could somebody point |51243 to another project that is more focused on phone usecase?
23:45.14comradekinguIf you use right channel audio only, the mic will align somewhat to your mouth when holding it right hand screen inwards
23:45.50comradekingu|51243: neo900, rick james called
23:46.04|51243hey DocScrutinizer05, if you know one i'd be happy
23:46.26dTalI don't really like a scheme that requires the lid to be closed - this would require that you open the lid to answer a call, then close it again to take the call
23:46.32DocScrutinizer05I know one but I'm not supposed to do advertisment for it in here
23:46.35comradekinguhttp://neo900.org/

23:46.47phanboetTotal preorders: 699 [487 mobile (69%); 12x 2GB (1%), 687x 4GB (98%)] {Stand2GB: 8, Stand4GB: 204, US2GB: 1, US4GB: 132, EU2GB: 3, EU4GB: 351}, 60 pre pre-orders left @ 2016-05-22 01:45:14 CEST - http://p.rdw.se/pyra-preorder.html
23:46.49|51243dTal, that would not concern me
23:47.06|51243it rings, you open it, see who is calling, take the call, close and put to ear
23:47.09halosghostnice
23:47.18comradekingudTal: why wouldnt you shoulderbutton to take the call?
23:47.28DocScrutinizer05dTal: use shoulderbuttons ;-)
23:47.46DocScrutinizer05dang, comradekingu beat me to it
23:47.52dTalwell the basic story is, expect it to work fine software wise, and the basic hardware is there (mic, speakers, vibrator, leds) but it's up to you if you think you can put up with the form factor
23:47.53|51243ok, still we need mic and speakers on backside
23:48.04comradekingui beat you to dang
23:48.05dTalbut it's an extremely hackable platform
23:48.35|51243i wonder if some kind of case could be printed that has spekaer and mic and somehow connect these to the main board
23:48.51comradekingui still remember when the formfactor was a crate carried with shoulderstrap
23:49.06DocScrutinizer05|51243: you seen comradekingu's link?
23:49.11dTalI will just note that the right hinge is still entirely hollow, so if you can find a place to put the right gubbins in the lid there shouldn't be a problem getting the signlas to the mainboard
23:50.09comradekinguthe way of the hacker went a detour, because it could
23:50.35comradekingu>went a detour
23:50.39comradekinguis detoured a word?
23:51.01DocScrutinizer05~dict detoured
23:51.07DocScrutinizer05duh
23:51.11DocScrutinizer05~useless
23:51.12infobotACTION starts crying and hides from docscrutinizer05 in the darkest corner of the room. :(
23:51.14comradekinguderived deriled delusions, because anything else would make sense
23:51.18dTalDick Detoured, Private Eye
23:52.11|51243does the device notice lid open/close ?
23:52.16DocScrutinizer05anyway ding says detured is a word
23:52.21comradekinguyes
23:52.24DocScrutinizer05fix spelling^^^
23:52.59comradekinguas in deturated?
23:53.04DocScrutinizer05~spell detoured
23:53.17DocScrutinizer05ok, thta means it's correct
23:53.18comradekinguit wasnt even bad http://nb.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=deture
23:53.22dTalwhy not just get one of these http://img.ecplaza.com/my/conceptshine/1.jpg
23:53.38|51243dTal are you one of the devs ?
23:53.53comradekinguor a headset
23:54.09dTalI am not affiliated with the Pyra in any way other than as a customer
23:54.18dTalhowever, that makes me one of the devs :)
23:54.31DocScrutinizer05dTal: why a cheesy render, those things exist
23:54.56dTalwhy do you think it's a render
23:55.02DocScrutinizer05looks like
23:55.03comradekingu|51243: i am dev null, forgot who you are though
23:55.27dTalI think it's just badly cut out
23:55.40DocScrutinizer05looks again
23:55.59DocScrutinizer05possible, yes
23:56.16comradekinguthe only thing that would annoy me more than a faux-phone is one that looks like a render
