mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you know phuctor stats still take forever to load. am i remiss in thinking this was solved ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, logically just tell the dc they're getting a large chunk payment towards your acct, and it takes care of however many months or w/e. i guess. dunno, your show.
mircea_popescu: but i suppose if you search well you might even have that much in your acct.
mircea_popescu: uhm, i mean slot. slot. srsly now. not freudian at all.
mircea_popescu: but at least we figured out "vidcards i like" has~nothing to do with "dual slut", everything to do with ~how agp8x even is~.
mircea_popescu: kinda what threw me, "wtf are you talking rare, these were so pestilentially common for a summer or two even i ended up with some".
mircea_popescu gotta remember he's well advised to not put his 20yo self unfiltered in the chan, lol.
mircea_popescu: aaanyway. so it turns out "2 slot" is really 2010s era fakery, not really used as such. and i fell for it!
mircea_popescu: who the hell doesn't take it out ? can actually break the connector pcb part.
mircea_popescu: so the idea is, 2nd was only used for power or what am i missing ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you know the vidcard actually has two feet, in both mid slots.
mircea_popescu: tbh i've not even thought about any of this in decade+.
mircea_popescu: afaik agp ~= pci-e, but i suppose technically i might've actually misunderstood what's going on in my mobo ?!
mircea_popescu: of course from looking at their actual specs, they list "- 1 x AGP8X/4X slot, 1.5V only - PCI Express x16 slot" rather than dual agp per se.
mircea_popescu: but i do have 2-hole board right here, and the vga card to go with it.

mircea_popescu: HOWEVER it presents in 3 cases per 20 kids in a "temporary class" in north carolina while their school underwent renovation.
mircea_popescu: in other sorta-lulz : ewing's sarcoma is an extrmely rare (sarcomas are in general rare in humans, but this is bone-ish origin, so even rarer) that presents in about 5 cases per million in the us, about 2 cases per million in the rest of the "industrialized world" aka pantsuitlands, and sub 1 per million in the rest of the world in general.
mircea_popescu: !Qlater tell spyked any interest adding ^ functionality to spykedbot ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform apparently they're all domestic routers.

mircea_popescu: you know, all these "Random names" have a distinct handmade flavour.
mircea_popescu: (if the putative fast oscilloscope ever got interfaced with killer micro box, it'd be through isa also, i'm sure.)
☟︎ mircea_popescu: you know, i'm tempted to put "must have 4x isa" on the reqs list for tmsr mobo ANYWAY.
mircea_popescu: ftr, i still have boards running my amds with proper isa cards...
mircea_popescu: yeah, ye olde boards weren't unusable enough, had to get rid of amirite.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform could you make it a board ? use the agpx connector lol
mircea_popescu: but in any case usb-+ should not be on mainline kernel. let he who runs rockchip farm patch in the ugly.
mircea_popescu: losers shouldn't evne have cameras in the first place.
mircea_popescu: yes, you miss out on downloading sony camera contents in such a manner as the "your media contains pictures!!!" popup can shoot "usefully fast". this is not a permitted usecase anyway.
