| 09:51.12 | brolin_empey | Not that it matters because I rarely play any computer game at all any more, never mind recent demanding games, but would a desktop computer with a Core i7 920 model of CPU, one of the original models of Core i7 from 2008 November, still suffice for running something like, say, Overwatch with an SSD and a somewhat recent video card?

I would still rather have a fanless x86-64 computer because having a literally silent computer is awesome when you are used to always hearing a fan in a computer. |
| 10:44.52 | brolin_empey | Well, considering that the TDP rating of the CPU is 130 W, I guess it almost certainly has a fan on at least the CPU heatsink. |

| 10:50.54 | brolin_empey | buZz: Well, a 100 W incandescent light bulb is used without a fan. |
| 10:52.34 | buZz | those are illegal here nowadays |
| 10:54.23 | brolin_empey | Because of the energy consumption or the fire risk? |
| 10:55.42 | Maxdamantus | The energy consumption, surely. |
| 10:56.10 | Maxdamantus | suspects LED bulbs would generally be a greater (though still fairly insignificant) fire risk. |
| 10:56.25 | Maxdamantus | actually, nvm, that's probably not true. |
| 10:56.35 | Maxdamantus | actually, dunno, it might be. |
| 10:57.54 | Maxdamantus | because afaik LED bulbs usually just rectify the mains power, and if you end up with arcing, it's more likely to pose a fire risk on DC. |
| 10:58.29 | Maxdamantus | but the arcing would likely have to result from a short circuit, since they obviously don't normally use much current. |
| 10:59.15 | buZz | brolin_empey: energy, yeah |
| 10:59.21 | buZz | afaik they are still legal as heat sources |
| 10:59.24 | buZz | but not as lights |
| 11:04.14 | brolin_empey | Does a self-ballasted compact fluorescent lamp have to convert the AC from the lamp socket to DC? Or does it only use AC? |
| 11:05.27 | Maxdamantus | I think fluorescent lamps use high-frequency AC. |

| 11:11.22 | brolin_empey | If a fluorescent lamp uses alternating current, does that mean that a computer with a display with a fluorescent backlight, such as old computers with an integrated LCD that uses a CCFL backlight, has to convert the AC from the mains power supply unit to DC used by the power input connector of the computer only for the fluorescent backlight to convert the DC back to AC? Imagine if you use an inverter to power such a computer from a vehicle: the DC from the |
| 11:11.22 | brolin_empey | vehicle gets converted to AC by the inverter connected to the vehicle power outlet, then the computer PSU converts the AC back to DC, then the display backlight inverter converts the DC back to AC. :-D |

| 19:36.20 | sicelo | synchronizing tasks with syncevolution & radicale works, but it's a bit useless. not sure why, but Android thinks a task meant for tomorrow is due today. beats me why DAVx5 gets the date wrong, because i can see in the syncevolution logs that the date is correct, and inspecting the vcal as stored in radicale also has correct date. |
| 19:54.11 | sicelo | n900 applies correct date for an event created on Android/DAVx5, just doesn't show an alarm, etc. which is to be expected. |
| 20:05.29 | luke-jr | why? |
| 20:06.23 | luke-jr | DAVx5 is working fine for me, but KOrganizer doesn't like recurring events.. |
| 20:15.33 | sicelo | here is a task i created on N900, http://paste.debian.net/1117506/ |
| 20:16.23 | sicelo | please try to import it into KOrganizer, sync with DAVx5, and see what date DAVx5 shows for you. maybe something's wrong at my end |
| 20:30.03 | sicelo | i think i see what's wrong here .. so N900 does not include (1) timezone info in the task file, and (2) in the DUE-DATE field, leaves the time as 00:00, since that's in the alarm, defined in an X-field. DAVx5/Android on the other hand seems to expect a timezone, and a time to be in the DUEDATE field. my timezone is UTC-2, so DAVx5 says the event is due at 22:00 the previous day |

| 21:36.06 | sicelo | now if only there was something to sync Notes from calendar (radicale calls it Journal. DAVx5 doesn't support it) |
| 21:55.35 | Maxdamantus | $ date --date="00:00" |
| 21:55.36 | Maxdamantus | Sat Nov 23 00:00:00 NZDT 2019 |
| 21:56.52 | Maxdamantus | also, I think it's fairly typical for log files to just use the local time without denoting the timezone. |
| 22:02.34 | sicelo | and funny enough, Android's built it calendar has no problem reading the time from N900's vcal files, even though they also don't include timezone info. but on this device (Galaxy S7), the native calendar can't do Tasks, hence OpenTasks, which was suggested by DAVx5 |
| 22:03.58 | Maxdamantus | also, I imagine if anything were to not use a particular timezone, it would be an alarm. |
| 22:04.18 | Maxdamantus | since in general, you just want the alarm to go off at a consistent time in whatever timezone you happen to be in. |
