mircea_popescu: put
the big iron in
the basement. check it out, BingoBoingo vax lives!
mircea_popescu: it occurs
to me, you could just get some of
that aluminum foil flexible
tubing stuff, plug
the case in and have
the vented done in
the other room.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla if i recall
the calculations correctly
the principal harmonic should be ~285 hz if you 200rpm
mircea_popescu: like in
those cartoon "rain cloud 2x2 follows guy around"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform sooner or later you'll have
to face
the fact
that
the
turbulence other people get isn't like
the
turbulence you get.
kakobrekla: at 200 rpm
the only
thing you can hear is bad bearings
mircea_popescu: i could faintly hear it,
then i had it cleaned for my sins, now i can distinctly hear it.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla he has bat hearing, which is why he can feed himself on mosquitoes in
the dark.
mircea_popescu: yes but
there's also
thermodynamic equilibrium. you only get liquid phase condensation in some cases on
the curve.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no we're not.
the OTHER
thing you can do is plug one of
the ends of
those heat inverter units into it. whatever
the fuck
they call
them.
shinohai: on pogo,
the hdd is
the only
thing
that ever seems
to get hot.
jurov: oh,
these for hdd
then
jurov: what about virgin
tears?
mircea_popescu: nah, it has
to be sealed. it's inert if it can't oxidate.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform just pour some caulk on
the upface of
the mobo, let it be.
mircea_popescu: shinohai olive oil is actually not
terrible for
this role. just, prohibitively expensive.
shinohai: I wonder if I could sell olive-oil cooled computers. Market
the oil as being
trampled at precise
temperatures under
the feet of certifiable virgins. Increases
the cooling properties.
mircea_popescu: lmao when we started, computers plugged into
the
tv. and after 20 years spent spinning in
the desert, as we age computers plug into
the...
tv.
jurov: punkman: i have inherited a working
table from grandpa
that allows me
to have
the monitor 1m away
mircea_popescu: the last
time i had a fanless gpu most of
the girls i know
today were still virgins omaigerd.
jurov: i know so far. but
they are either 28" or $$$ + new gpu in either case
jurov: i plan upgrade
to Philips BDM4065UC 4K soon anyway
mircea_popescu: hey, some people edit pr0nz for a living.
they have
to do it on mobile workstation as well as at home and
that sixth-inch clitoral hood HASTOLOOKGOOD!!11
mircea_popescu: incidentally, i like
the arrangement, ostensibly every window in
the backroom opens into a small cell populated by one nude houri ?
punkman: I don't
think I can
tell 6bit/crappy-PWM monitors apart from
the better ones
mircea_popescu: "Why four $800 monitors ? Mostly because I’m not a poorfag" << - >> <asciilifeform> ;;later
tell pete_dushenski you ~do~ realize you bought
the 'poorfag' non-'colouredge' or 'radiforce' eizos, right ? << lol i'm sure he'll be
thrilled
to hear.
☟︎ punkman: I'd rather buy 10 LGs for
that price
mircea_popescu: last i visited die berliner Huren
there were 3 plugs per 2 seat isle
punkman: I also saw a monitor advertised as 10bit, and
then noticed "actually only 8bit" in
the small print. not sure if
this was in
the logs, but quite outrageous.
assbot: Logged on 19-01-2016 12:00:06; mircea_popescu: punkman most
trains in civilisandia have power outlets.
shinohai: I was sure I would be synced
this morning but
these last 1k blocks are slooooow.
mircea_popescu: actually,
this would fucking kill - barely functioning deeply retarded webgeek comedy.
punkman: asciilifeform: does eizo do
the 6bit
thing?
mircea_popescu: punkman or you could go all out on murderous rage, place
the box in
the luggage space overhead, and dangle a monitor from
there by mr bean's sock.
mircea_popescu: good, save one or
two or you might provoke
the murderous rage of my mother.
