Interesting, my laptop seems to have lost its swap file

@crasic I hope it wasn't in use at that moment. On the other hand, you'd probably be unable to leave that message if it was ;o)

@jippie some people have multiple computers...

@PlasmaHH Are you saying that sane people have more than one computer just like where a weird guy like myself owns more than one oscilloscope?

@jippie Do Embedded Linux platforms, SUN Stations and Laptops in storage ( 400MHz ~ 1.5GHz single core) count?

@Asmyldof What would you think yourself?

sigh

@jippie YES! In which case I have at least 50

Trying to decide whether I'm travelling by bus to the city center, or by car. But where would I park if I go by car :-/

@Asmyldof are you trying to prove you are even weirder than I am?

No, there's no contest

Why not by bike?

Do you also have ring core memory on display?

It's like 4km

Noh, I had one, but that was when my house was tiny, so gave it to a friend

@Asmyldof because ... I'm lazy? Scared to get my bike stolen?

@jippie sub terranian bike storage and a decent lock? I've been on my Koga a million times, no worries

you mean the strange tunnel thingy at de Bijenkorf?

yup

How does that work?

@Asmyldof Is it paid? Does it require coins or plastic?

@jippie 100% free

@Asmyldof Is paying local taxes all these years finally paying off?

sort of

Our taxes are pretty low on country average, you know that right

@Asmyldof /me shrugs

@Asmyldof I didn't know it was a fietsenstalling TBH :$

o.O how big do you want them to print it?

Maar geen speciale pasjes of speciale sloten? Gewoon een kettingslot meenemen en klaar is klara?

yup

:-| I'm surprised new things are built that don't require a smart phone :-p

Headin' out to the faire for an hour or two. See if I can make some (potential customer) friends :-)

@Asmyldof maturity level is not very high.

I mean

when you use hot glue to connect electronic components into a doll, then you lost me :-D

Nice to browse around, don't expect too much

Don't accept the stamp for re-entrance, it doesn't wash off too easily. If you really want to re-enter, you can always ask for the stamp when you leave.

nobody recognized my "I only give negative feedback" T-shirt

I don't own a smart(ish) phone BTW ;o)

@jippie Maybe next year I should get a stall and sell professional tools, right across from Conrad stand, but approximately similar prices

Like encapsulants, glues, pliers, solder, soldering tools, of course heatshrink :-)

And obviously the Fan Cap Kits, because there was hardly anything fun to do for the kids

either the "maker" themselves playing around or overly complex PCB soldering

Anyway, @PlasmaHH doesn't have to worry about not seeing it, because it's not worth the effort. Better value for your money going to the Efteling on the busiest day of the year

@Asmyldof didn't pay too much attention for conrad prices. I usually look for very specific things when I shop with them. Beagle Bone Black was cheap when I bought them for example. Sometimes they have things that you can hardly find elsewhere, but then again I think I shopped there maybe 2 times past 5 years.

@jippie Can't remember anything they had that couldn't be gotten elsewhere with a modicum of quality control for the last 15 years at least

@Asmyldof It took me more than 20 seconds to figure out what the kids were doing, then I decided to walk on because I'm afraid people may frown upon me when I as an adult single male stare at children too long.

lol

Hey I'll step in with you, we can make some electronics fun things!

One thing that struck me is that few to none of the stands had a catchy "look this is what we're doing". You had to figure it out from studying the stuff and what was happening. Or even worse ask people for it :-s

@Asmyldof are you kidding me, did @PlasmaHH go to the Efteling this weekend? He will be totally wasted for the remainder of the weekend :-/

There've been traffic jams all days this week at the Efteling.

@jippie Dude... it was just a comparison

@Asmyldof Any other remarks of yours that I shouldn't take too seriously? :-p

@jippie Cake!

@Asmyldof I still think @PlasmaHH is in traffic jam at the Efteling ;o)

Nah, went to lelystad and still recovering ;) kids are a tough thing ^^
