| 21:08.20 | Varthall | hi |
| 22:15.29 | Tomoe | x gon give it to ya |
| 22:16.03 | Varthall | huh? |
| 22:23.59 | Tomoe | huh huh |
| 22:25.05 | Varthall | any news from the guy selling those sd-wifi combos? |
| 22:29.57 | Tomoe | not really |
| 22:30.10 | Tomoe | I accepted the first deal he offered but he didn't send updated offer yet |
| 22:30.15 | Tomoe | will let you know if it happens |
| 22:33.13 | Tomoe | Varthall: got another deal today btw |
| 22:33.14 | Tomoe | locally |
| 22:33.16 | Tomoe | xbox 360 |
| 22:33.17 | Tomoe | =P |
| 22:34.08 | Varthall | ok |
| 22:34.16 | Varthall | hmm, for how much? |
| 22:34.23 | Tomoe | 50 eur |
| 22:34.37 | Tomoe | xbox 360 slim with 250gb drive |
| 22:34.54 | Tomoe | + 2x wireless controllers + 2x extra controller battery |
| 22:36.37 | Varthall | in working condition, i.e. no red ring of death? |
| 22:36.43 | Tomoe | yes of course |
| 22:36.46 | Tomoe | I've tested it too |
| 22:36.55 | Tomoe | the slim versions rarely suffer RROD |
| 22:37.05 | Tomoe | they have updated motherboard + need less power |
| 22:37.30 | Varthall | good then |
| 22:38.12 | Varthall | you got it for a fair price imho |
| 22:38.35 | Varthall | but will you have time to fiddle with it? :) |
| 22:38.51 | Tomoe | fair? |
| 22:38.55 | Tomoe | I think the price is excellent |
| 22:38.59 | Tomoe | it's practically brand new |
| 22:39.57 | Tomoe | the controllers alone sell for like 20eur, minimum 15eur |
| 22:39.59 | Tomoe | lol |
| 22:40.13 | Tomoe | so just the controllers + the 250gb drive are worth 50 |
| 22:40.22 | Tomoe | and yes I'll have time to fiddle with it |
| 22:40.42 | Tomoe | if by fiddle you mean install the modchip I ordered in advance for this |
| 22:40.42 | Tomoe | =D |
| 22:40.46 | Varthall | lol |
| 22:40.59 | Tomoe | <- long term planner |
| 22:41.14 | Tomoe | I've had 5 xbox 360 slim modchips for about a year now |
| 22:41.19 | Tomoe | just waiting for a dealio |
| 22:41.28 | Tomoe | paid 12$ for all 5 of them |
| 22:41.38 | Tomoe | bought directly from china of course |
| 22:41.40 | Tomoe | =) |
| 22:41.53 | Varthall | well, that's a price I would have paid for it, although I don't follow used consoles prices... |
| 22:42.02 | Tomoe | Varthall: they are RGH chips |
| 22:42.30 | Tomoe | which stands for Reset Glitch Hack |
| 22:42.32 | Varthall | hmm, sell the remaining 4 chips for a higher price :) |
| 22:42.40 | Varthall | hmm what is that? |
| 22:42.47 | Tomoe | it glitches the xbox 360's cpu during boottime |
| 22:42.59 | Tomoe | by messing with signals the cpu receives |
| 22:43.21 | Tomoe | with careful timing and specifically selected signals you can trick the cpu into booting unsigned code |
| 22:43.38 | Tomoe | so once it boots like that you can run anything you want |
| 22:43.47 | Tomoe | it's mostly used for playing backups |
| 22:43.51 | Tomoe | "backups" teehee |
| 22:43.56 | Tomoe | but you can do everything you want |
| 22:44.00 | Tomoe | including installing linux |
| 22:44.01 | Tomoe | =P |
| 22:45.18 | Tomoe | also both of these previous gen consoles |
| 22:45.23 | Tomoe | xbox 360 and playstation 3 |
| 22:45.26 | Tomoe | use powerpc cpus |
| 22:45.39 | Tomoe | so in theory one could boot AmigaOS 4/4.1 on them |
| 22:45.40 | Tomoe | lol |
| 22:45.42 | Tomoe | =P |
| 23:03.57 | Varthall | didn't imagine you'd know about AmigaOS4, it is a very niche system unknown to almost anyone |
| 23:04.54 | Varthall | anyway I don't think it would run on the xbox without a custom compiled kernel |
| 23:05.54 | Varthall | maybe with a (very) complex wrapper under linux a la wine |
| 23:09.46 | Tomoe | Varthall: I'm more hipster than you are |
| 23:09.47 | Tomoe | =P |
| 23:13.47 | Varthall | lol |
| 23:14.26 | Tomoe | lol |
| 23:14.33 | Tomoe | but you really did come off hipsterish |
| 23:14.34 | Tomoe | =D |
| 23:17.50 | Tomoe | Varthall: if there really would be an effort to do this, instead of actual amigaos 4.1 the open source alternatives would be much better candidates tho |
| 23:22.36 | Varthall | sorry, busy on #kexecboot ATM |
| 23:22.56 | Varthall | and holding my daughter with one arm :) |
| 23:23.04 | Varthall | so I type slowly |
| 23:23.24 | Tomoe | lol |
| 23:23.46 | Tomoe | like there's need to apologize |
| 23:24.05 | Tomoe | yup this channel is very busy so my lines will be lost |
| 23:24.06 | Tomoe | amirite |
| 23:24.07 | Tomoe | =P |
| 23:26.50 | Varthall | it's too crowded, that's the problem :) |
| 23:27.19 | Varthall | we should split it somehow haha |
| 23:38.00 | Varthall | anyway, I don't know what would be better between AROS and OS4 |
| 23:38.26 | Varthall | AROS is open source, but I feel there are more motivated people working behind OS4 |
