<asciilifeform> pc mobo is encrusted with items like mosfets that presume circulation of air
<< not really. mostly actually cool through the metal of the pcb
mircea_popescu: artifexd: Water cooling sprung a leak and blew my power supply. I guess it could've been worse.

punkman: mircea_popescu: assbot: Kickstarter project spent $3.5M to finish a working prototypeand ended in disaster | Ars Technica
<< punkman to be fair, that's not really either important or making a lot of sense.

<mircea_popescu> asciilifeform that's the minor part of the binomial. the major part is that it is removed from folks who shouldn't have had it. // wait how is taking the money from people who shouldn't have it and giving it to others who shouldn't have had it either not subtracting a from x and then adding a back to x?

<< punkman to be fair, that's not really either important or making a lot of sense. sometimes prototypes fail, which is why they're called prototypes. i don't think you can find any item which didn't have millions "wasted" in prototyping

mircea_popescu:
<benkay> how does slowing down bond purchases imply a not increase in rates?
<< iwannabelieve.jpg
HyperChetty:
<mircea_popescu> what im curious is, what tiny nation will suddenly be buying 50x its gdp worth of us bonds this autumn//the caliphate
