| danielpbarron: | i want to build a minimal eulora machine and i'm wondering what's preferable: laptop, or slim form factor "desktop" which user would have to supply own monitor/keyboard | [17:03] |
| diana_coman: | danielpbarron, if you really mean minimal, I suppose it would be a virtual machine image thing that you can deploy anywhere, no? | [17:04] |
| danielpbarron: | i don't know how to do that. i was thinking, user pays X, gets sent thing that boots to Eulora login screen | [17:05] |
| diana_coman: | well, if it's about what players would get physically then why not have both as options with different price tags ofc? | [17:06] |
| diana_coman: | if you are aiming for "fully independent" then it should have some screen I suppose | [17:07] |
| danielpbarron: | i know it's been said that laptops aren't really computers, but was wondering if this is an exception to that | [17:07] |
| diana_coman: | otherwise it would ideally be just a dongle thing, plug it into a machine, boot and you get into eulora | [17:07] |
| danielpbarron: | hm.. | [17:07] |
| diana_coman: | I think there is a lack of clarity there regarding what are you exactly aiming for (as I read it, on one hand you want minimal eulora machine focusing on the game itself, on the other hand you are saying preferable meaning player/your clients' preferences focusing on an unknown quantity there) | [17:09] |
| danielpbarron: | take birdman for example. he's been playing on some shitty broken windows laptop | [17:26] |
| danielpbarron: | i told him i'd make him a computer that would be better suited for eulora | [17:26] |
| danielpbarron: | at the moment i've been testing on these powerhouse boxes with way more than is needed for eulora. if he's not trying to run a node or do other higher level stuff, it'd kinda be overkill to pay for all that | [17:27] |
| danielpbarron: | and also, i get the feeling there are other WoT members that would play but they can't be bothered to figure out what hardware to get and how to install it | [17:28] |
| diana_coman: | true; I think this is more likely to end up though as a user-needs/means thing? as in: you'll inevitably get people who want a laptop, those who want just the unit etc | [17:28] |
| diana_coman: | hm, you think? | [17:28] |
| danielpbarron: | i guess | [17:29] |
| danielpbarron: | so you're saying it wouldn't be a gross offense for me to offer a eulora laptop then | [17:29] |
| diana_coman: | well, it's your thing, don't see how could you offend really | [17:30] |
| diana_coman: | ftr I DID play it at some point on a lappy, so what | [17:30] |
| danielpbarron: | yeah me too, i did it mostly on a laptop, which finally broke earlier this year and i've since been playing on a "real computer"(TM) | [17:30] |
| diana_coman: | ahaha, the euloran learning curve in hardware terms too, as it were | [17:31] |
| danielpbarron: | i used it like a desktop though | [17:31] |
| diana_coman: | pretty much the only sane way to actually DO something imho, so no wonder | [17:43] |
| diana_coman: | anyway, danielpbarron from what I gather you mean to offer "eulora-ready units" as it were; no problem with that those units are, whatever they might be | [17:44] |
| danielpbarron: | !~calc 2.52*92*1000 - 4.08*21005 - 6.01*2100 - 2352 | [17:52] |
| jhvh1: | danielpbarron: 2.52*92*1000 - 4.08*21005 - 6.01*2100 - 2352 = 131166.59999999998 | [17:52] |
| danielpbarron: | oh also regarding the fix to foxybot to make exploring work better. sorry i haven't gotten that done yet -- mixture of laziness and my bi-anual location change. if and when i figure it out, and if it's still worth a supernatural cs, i intend to offer it in public auction and donate the proceeds to the bitcoin foundation | [18:39] |
