So my parents ISP has: 1) prevented relaying through their server with a username/password, 2) enabled SPF so that using any other relay indicates it may be spam.

The SSD part is just to make it faster 09:06 eythian_ But the 8GB was sizably more expensive 09:07 eythian_ Also, it only comes in 4 and 8, so maybe you're looking somewhere else 09:07 chilts ok ... important this one, Tux or Ubuntu logo? 09:07 eythian_ I got Ubuntu 09:07 eythian_ rangi got tux 09:07 chilts I'd get Tux :) 09:07 chilts even though I use Ubuntu 09:07 eythian_ I didn't put a lot of thought into it :) 09:07 chilts when I said 6G or 8G above, I was referring to memory (even though it was on the same line as the hdd) 09:08 eythian_ It's not on the same line as the hdd 09:08 chilts and did you get charged GST on the way in? 09:08 eythian_ it's the line above 09:08 eythian_ yes 09:08 chilts 09:04:28 < chilts> I probably won't get as muchhard drive space, maybe 6G or 8G depending on price 09:08 chilts same line :) 09:08 eythian_ That's very confusing :) 09:09 chilts I know, that's why you were confused 09:09 chilts but that's only 'coz HDDs now have memory 09:09 eythian_ The main impetus for mine is that I'm spending a few months in Yurp from june, and need a development machine. 09:09 eythian_ This is an ideal dev machine 09:10 eythian_ Oh, if you don't mind waiting, they're setting up a shop in wellington 09:10 eythian_ Not sure of the timeframe, but this year some time. 09:10 eythian_ ibeardslee may know if he's about 09:10 chilts yeah, I've been speaking to Cathy on Twitter a lot since she's been here 09:11 eythian_ ah right 09:11 chilts am just wondering about what you got charged on the way in 09:11 chilts if any 09:11 eythian_ 15%+~$25 or so 09:12 chilts righto, so the $25 is an additional charge for clearing or something 09:12 chilts cool 09:12 eythian_ I factored that in to my calculations, but tbh I think this laptop will last me a good long time. 09:12 eythian_ yeah 09:12 eythian_ MAF 09:12 chilts yeah, should be a while 09:12 chilts of course I'd claim the 15% back anyway 09:12 chilts so I shouldn't worry :) 09:12 eythian_ Ah, nice 09:12 eythian_ Had I been smarter, I would have bought it through catalyst and done that too 09:12 chilts heh, true :) 09:13 eythian_ given I'll be using it for work anyway 09:13 chilts yeah, might have worked out well for you 09:13 chilts yurp==europe? 09:13 eythian_ But mostly it's nice having something where I know that it'll come back from suspend, and when I plug a projector in it magically works. 09:13 eythian_ yeah 09:13 eythian_ Going for KohaCon and staying for a few months 09:14 cait :) 09:14 chilts yeah, coming back from suspend is one of my new must-haves :) 09:14 chilts ok, gotta scoot ... night all & 09:14 eythian_ I've actually had good luck with that, there was a time where my old old laptop didn't 09:14 eythian_ then a new upgrade came out and it did 09:14 eythian_ since then, everything has worked 09:14 eythian_ I think it's 90% solved in Linux 09:15 eythian_ later 09:15 cait later 09:17 * cait starts with her accounting homework 09:32 eythian_ http://ubuntuone.com/0lbsxOF3AtO49hCLrarCgM <-- think I've finished with my talk planning 09:32 eythian_ Now I just need to do with my packaging talk 09:32 eythian_ That should be mostly demonstration though, so not so big. 12:30 druthb o/ 12:30 jcamins o/ 12:41 * cait waves 19:13 cait wahanui: 6 * 35 19:13 wahanui 210 19:18 ibeardslee chilts, eythian etc .. there has been some vague discussion about getting a silver fern sticker to replace that warped box on the key (zareason lappies) 19:47 rangi Morning 19:47 jcamins Happy birthday! 19:47 rangi @wunder nzwn 19:47 cait Happy birthday :) 19:47 huginn rangi: The current temperature in Wellington, New Zealand is 4.0°C (7:00 AM NZST on May 21, 2012).
