kakobrekla: anyway this ends google-fu :)
kakobrekla: not top heavy but all heavy

asciilifeform: kakobrekla: i have the dimms b/w the sockets, so this might not fly.

asciilifeform: substantially top-heavy though
asciilifeform: looks a tiny bit more cleanable.
asciilifeform: but that this is actually very similar shape to what i had before.
asciilifeform: or, hm, there was adapter.
asciilifeform: where do you see AMD F in these ?
asciilifeform: vacuuming and even air compressor, turns out, does not really clean the inside.
asciilifeform: had to WASH my old ones.
asciilifeform: it is interesting, i searched for MONTHS to find a new set of socket F hs, found NONE

asciilifeform: prolly one of the shams they made after cray died
nubbins`: yeah, as soon as i said, i figured that much muck wouldn't fly
asciilifeform: nubbins`: surely not the immersive cray ?
asciilifeform: immersion adds parasitic capacitance to pcb traces.
nubbins` used to work at gov research institute in ottawa, massive cray in lunchroom behind glass doors
asciilifeform: (unless the machine is DESIGNED for it from day 1.)
asciilifeform: nubbins`: see the immersion cooling thread, physics does not cooperate
nubbins`: copper bucket full of thermal paste

asciilifeform: i suppose everyone is expected to ssd now.
asciilifeform: the hdd fittings are, fucktardedly, plastic tho.
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: this thing had noise dampeners and intake filters (bottom and front)
pete_dushenski: this is how i imagine thinking works in reddit heads, at least
kakobrekla: for case i use 'fractal design r4' which looks surprisingly similar to your pick
pete_dushenski: "check out my sweet machine babe. you can see INSIDE" "omg that's hot [drops pants, bends over]"
asciilifeform: that should be an inch thick foam.
asciilifeform: WTF with the glass, srsly
asciilifeform: i have the fucker standing on fist-sized sorbothane legs, too
kakobrekla: im spinning rust free - i have a few 'hp microservers' for that running in another room
asciilifeform: i threw out 2, replaced with ssd for the cost of their weight in plutonium, i suppose now have to do other 2 ?!!
pete_dushenski: shoulda bought silentwings case too
asciilifeform: it it the motherfucking disks ?!!
asciilifeform: afaik they never invented eating shit to begin with.
pete_dushenski: jp just figured out 'organic food' centuries ago. it's a newer concept to anglos.
asciilifeform: just too big of a job.
asciilifeform: but i will point out that there are not enough koi, or even sharks, on the planet3, to feed the ugly anglo chix to.
asciilifeform: they might feed the ugly chix to koi ☟︎
asciilifeform: also i notice that jp, like ar, does not manufacture ugly chix in any appreciable qty. at all.
