moiety: well, i don't know you myself but i don't think he's a liar at all. unsure how else to answer that
moiety: no i just listen
moiety: i've met more people that trust him than trust you Luke-Jr i have to say
pankkake: I believe it is called slander
moiety: kakobrekla: not really with me, i'm generally cooking lol just filling out forms for The Flat. how are you?
pankkake: yeah, if I change my fans it should be PWM, but I should also get something to power them all :/
pankkake: fans that can't power up or even stop at low voltage suck, I've been bitten by that. "wut, why is my pc screaming?!"
kakobrekla: http://i.imgur.com/8gvGGdL.jpg
kakobrekla: this is just over half the fans i tested
pankkake: and I have ~10 hard drives powered, so I really don't want them near me :p
pankkake: is the noise annoying? i.e. vibrating noise?
kakobrekla: i hate water pumps.
Naphex: in my new home pc i went straight to water cooling
fluffypony: ;;later tell mircea_popescu Apurintly mi spilleng ar nut sew gewd laytlee. I blaym tha frowndashun!
mircea_popescu: i kinda regret the guy didn't keep a blog. it'd be neat if one could link to where he says "gavin, you're too fucktarded to talk to, stop emailing me."
bounce: he'd have optimized all the derps out of the system, I'm sure. like, magically.
mircea_popescu: The notion of decentralized reputation occurs to them. I have the urge to interject but it’s not question time…
asciilifeform: not quite what i had in mind
BingoBoingo: I recognize it from the altcoin channel, but dunno who runs it
asciilifeform: i don't give a damn if 'market has decided' that shit is edible. for so long as it remains physically possible to obtain food, i shall eat it - rather than shit
asciilifeform: i'm sorta stuck with this board. and when i physically gives up the ghost, it is likely that i will obtain an identical one.
asciilifeform: ~1yr ago i thought about it, and couldn't even locate a vendor that supported mb with ECC.
asciilifeform: and i'm not sure i'll ever actually replace this machine. it will have to catch fire and burn to the ground.
kakobrekla: i mean single socket
asciilifeform: the 1kg and similar nice thermal hedgehogs unfortunately won't work here (i run dual-socket boards, 'amd type f', there is just enough room for ordinary one)
kakobrekla: anyway, i guess its the bearings
asciilifeform: i just moved to a (small) house, from a flat, and it is amazingly quiet (no wall neighbors) - and, turns out, this just makes the cursed machine seem ever louder...
kakobrekla: i live in a town with 5k people, maybe even less. its quiet here.
asciilifeform: about 1km from where i sit
BingoBoingo: Yeah. I'll just have to go for knowing it could be worse. They could be hosting a tractor pull.
asciilifeform: (my pet, for example, is entirely unbothered by noise. can't even hear half of what i hear.)
asciilifeform: There's stock car racing happening about 300 meters from here << i suppose one solution to noise is... go deaf.
BingoBoingo: I really dunno why you two are complaining about noise. There's stock car racing happening about 300 meters from here.
kakobrekla: i thought that being the dust
kakobrekla: eh i sentenced that like a fucktard
kakobrekla: dunno if we understood me, i do use regular disks
kakobrekla: well its not really a terminal i just call it that.
asciilifeform: (i use 'sorbothane' bushings. but this is only a pill against blatant induced vibrations, not disk noise per se)
kakobrekla: yeah i had that before the pet moved in
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Occasionally I hear inductors and other components in that range.
kakobrekla: hm yeah i have a silenced case.
asciilifeform: out of curiosity: surely i'm not the only one here who hears 16kHz+ (inductors, etc) ?
kakobrekla: i can go passive but theres no real need to
asciilifeform: i still can't picture something i'd recognize as a solution, with fans present.
kakobrekla: or else i wouldnt have a box with 500eur worth of fans im never gonna use in my room
asciilifeform: one day i will be tired of this, weld a tank shut, attach radiator, pour 'fluorinert.'
asciilifeform: i can always, without exception, hear the 'delta'
asciilifeform: fans are a guaranteed headache, i can hear the air moving.
kakobrekla: but after much research and money i found the fans that are quiet.
kakobrekla: well i got down to the problem where mechanical fan noise was the issue, often pwm modulation
asciilifeform: i can hear them.
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: i'd spend substantial money on a guaranteed-noiseless machine with modern specs
mircea_popescu: i generally throw them out when i move.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: so i threw out about a dozen suits << how come ?
kakobrekla: yea i know of zalman well
asciilifeform: 3000 usd, if i recall
asciilifeform: i once saw a vendor ('zalman' ?) who offered a 50kg mega-hedgehog pc chassis. entirely fanless. machined to fit specific mb, etc.
kakobrekla: i can turn off all the fans and it will not fail
asciilifeform: i've owned machines which would thermalfail when run open
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla i use open boxes.
kakobrekla: dunno, i use them with 600rpm fan behind it
mircea_popescu: i forget.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: took a shop vac to my fans, just last night. this is why. (i try to, at least 1x/year)
mircea_popescu: i dunno how it can get sadder than that
mircea_popescu: so i threw out about a dozen suits.
mircea_popescu: jurov: so, by this theory, mircea_popescu should not mind all this feminish buzz cuz he's enjoying bitches anyway :D << i don't mind it in the slightest. anti-male legislation helps the male owner of a harem of females most of all.
mircea_popescu: lampelina: I'm way too stupid to hack anything, kakobrekla will confirm << are you two sore at each other atm ?
mircea_popescu: jurov: i undertood that as "replace karpeles and pierce with bots" << apt.
mircea_popescu: fluffypony: I actually really hope this happens, it will make the foundation obselete << a) it can't happen ; b) it doesn't compete with the foundation any more than workout videos compete with feminism.
bitcoinpete: and i'm off to watch some b&w movies
bitcoinpete: mr. i know everything there is to know about bitcoin so now i pump doge http://bitcoinpete.com/2014/02/23/dogederps/
benkay: ugh. i have a feeling that the notion is so stupid trying to understand its minutae are going to make me dumber.
bitcoinpete: princessnell: Apocalyptic i'm halfway through *A Troublesome Inheritance* (good, but still cowardly) << found it very timid as well. decent research, didn't put on big boy pants
Luke-Jr: I win?
bitcoinpete: asciilifeform:funny thing - i was expecting to see more discussion of the elgamal thing here. << same
Mats_cd03: i suffer
Apocalyptic: I think he did last time
bitcoinpete: and goddam that fucking question mark avatar. i want to kill that thing with fire
bitcoinpete: i guess having a tumblr and a southpark avatar are all one needs to be in fortune, wsj, etc
bitcoinpete: i'm hoping that skwirkle will have a strong second half of the year
kakobrekla: "i ran my car into a wall. theres still a chance cars are not evil."
kakobrekla: >Being a Mt. Gox victim myself and being taken advantage of by numerous mining hardware companies, it’s hard to admit that you still believe in bitcoin. Well, I still do.
bitcoinpete: if there were anything actually coming out of bex one way or another, i'd have something to work with.
bitcoinpete: i give it a 10% chance
bitcoinpete: i've challenged him to respond in long format with a blog post of his own
bitcoinpete: @bitcoinpete I welcome criticism, but your post was weak. Up that game and we can talk
HeySteve2: heh I was going to propose a Brock bet but forgot, nice one
kakobrekla: i think the proposals count is about same really, just mods being more generous lately
jurov: i worked with several woman programmers, they were very able and improved team dynamics too
kakobrekla: so i guess it does come down to ones abilities.
kakobrekla: anyway, i wouldnt count hostesses a part of bitcoin world
HeySteve: relative to their age and qualifications, I'm sure it's good money
kakobrekla: i think the 'issue' discussed is 'there isnt enough womenz ceoz [in btc]'
HeySteve: I'm sure it beats a teacher's salary
kakobrekla: i was reading that too
kakobrekla: good thing my mattress is modular, i can easily expand to bed more women
jurov: i'm a fag and wat is this
princessnell: fluffypony i more or less did this already: http://theumlaut.com/2013/06/18/the-goddess-of-the-gender-gaps/
jurov: i like words better than scripts.. words work on first try more often
princessnell: jurov better with words than with scripts, i am ashamed to say
