| jcs | i didn't order a wifi card with mine so it didn't come with antennas :( i didn't realize they didn't just come with the machine | 19:25 |

| vkoskiv_ | jcs: Your unit arrived? | 19:25 |
| jcs | yeah, assembled it this morning - https://twitter.com/jcs/status/1504148181977817089 | 19:26 |
| sknebel | I actually had the random thought recently that the manual would also be cool as an old-fashioned ring-binder thing. then if you upgrade parts you can swap in the manual pages for those | 19:26 |
| vkoskiv_ | Oh, I love that comparison. I assumed it'd be about the same size as an old PowerBook | 19:26 |
| vkoskiv_ | sknebel: The reason I got the handbook was because it is very similar in theme to the big chunky IBM PC manuals I have | 19:27 |

| eery | an anecdote for whomever it's relevant - airport security seemed moderately concerned over my reform :P | 21:15 |
| + Christoph_ (~Christoph@p54bf61f0.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) | 21:17 | |
| josch | If that anecdote is from the US, then I'm not surprised. They once took away my Thinkpad and let me wait for 1,5 hours before they gave it back. Nearly didn't catch my next flight... | 21:21 |
| eery | yeah, TSA -- though I'll find out what other countries think soonish | 21:23 |
| eery | they seemed to get rather excited when they got an excuse to use ... a device that tests for explosive residue | 21:24 |
| eery | I'm wondering if it'd be worth removing the lithium cells before traveling lol | 21:25 |
| erlehmann | years ago i asked my then-boss about visiting a conference in the US | 21:27 |
| erlehmann | and he simply told me that uh, well, yeah, probably not a good idea | 21:27 |
| eery | I think I just have bad luck | 21:28 |
| eery | I've gotten frisked extra in France and Germany too, for ... no reason | 21:28 |
| vkoskiv_ | eery: The TSA is pretty crazy. They swabbed my macbook for explosives a few years ago. | 21:29 |
| vkoskiv_ | Because macbooks are suspicious items, apparently. | 21:30 |
| eery | this is one case I do think the reform can kind of look like something malicious to the ... uninformed | 21:32 |
| erlehmann | uh, why | 21:32 |
| erlehmann | it looks like an industrial device with a screen and a keyboard | 21:33 |
| eery | which, you wouls hope the TSA would be informed, but | 21:33 |
| eery | and a bunch of round cylinders individually wired to some circuit :P | 21:33 |
| vkoskiv_ | But then another time I went through with three bags, 5 random laptops and a bunch of loose corn on the cob and they just shrugged and let me go | 21:33 |
| erlehmann | i have never interacted with the TSA, but aren't those the clowns that require shitty locks on luggage? | 21:34 |
| vkoskiv_ | Yes. With that red diamond logo on them. | 21:34 |
| eery | and removing your shoes | 21:34 |
| vkoskiv_ | Also that. Madness. | 21:34 |
| eery | On a positive note, reform is awesome - got my CS kit order the evening before my flight, am gonna try dogfooding it | 21:37 |
| erlehmann | in a german airport, i once had to wait for the weird luggage swab. stuff of note i had with me was clothes, i do not remember how many thinkpads and medication. i think maybe they just check when you have “too much” hardware on you? | 21:37 |
| erlehmann | though honestly, if i was security, i'd rather guess someone is very bad at smuggling laptops in such a case ;) | 21:37 |
| sknebel | I think the laptop swabbing is just random | 21:39 |
| erlehmann | this reminds me of a joke about the east-german border | 21:39 |
| erlehmann | where someone is crossing the border with a wheelbarrow of sand repeatedly | 21:40 |
| erlehmann | the border guard checks the permit, it seems in order. then searches the sand. nothing. | 21:40 |
| erlehmann | as the joke goes, this repeats from time to time for months or years. | 21:41 |
| erlehmann | after german reunification, the border guard meets the guy and asks “i always knew you smuggled *something*, but i could never prove it. so … what was it?” | 21:41 |
| erlehmann | “wheelbarrows” | 21:42 |
| eery | haha | 21:42 |
| erlehmann | i believe the joke also exists with bicycles | 21:43 |
| swivel | it's funny that the TSA would suspect a laptop with a deliberately _transparent_ case is a bomb | 21:48 |
| kfx | you guys kow that TSA is barely-trained minimum wage people right | 21:48 |
| swivel | yeah | 21:48 |
| kfx | they don't actually care, they're required to bomb-swab x% of crap that comes through the gate | 21:49 |
| kfx | it's all metrics-driven, except the parts where you get treated poorly if you look impoverished or foreign, that's just good old-fashioned police work | 21:50 |
| eery | they actually were "suspicious" from the x-ray imaging, which is stranger | 21:50 |
| swivel | huh, maybe it's become so unusual for laptops to not use pouch LiPo cells that an array of 18650s or whatever the model is looks odd now | 21:51 |
| kfx | next time pack a bundle of candles and an alarm clock to distract them (note: do not do this) | 21:51 |
| erlehmann | instructions unclear, packed a dozen casio F91-W :P | 21:57 |

| verx | long ago (like 1990) my IBM PCs mainboard died, and my uncle who worked in the industry got me a replacement | 22:02 |
| verx | There was no TSA back then, but people weren’t really familiar at all with “computers”. Taking that thing through airport security was quite the excitement | 22:03 |
| eery | yeah next time I will, I'm running on an hour of sleep so I didn't really care in the moment, just "so happy that only lasted a few minutes" | 22:03 |
| verx | no issue so far with the Reform, though! | 22:03 |
| kfx | erlehmann: this is cop nonsense 101... if you ask them what made them suspicious, they'll think you're planning to sneak shit on future flights | 22:06 |
| eery | I think it really is just how odd "old style" lithium cells are to them, I'm sure they just see the flat shaped packs every day... | 22:07 |
| eery | tangent, but one point of critique I have for the lipo cells like reform uses is the polarity isn't super clear | 22:09 |

| swivel | it was basically a guide on what to do if yo uwant to avoid detection | 22:26 |
