asciilifeform: ok thanks. is the idea that server rooms are usually kept cold enough to not warrant any kind of fancy cooler? |
00:33 |
asciilifeform |
billymg: that is so, but even in typical home at 'room temp' will run. the reason is that the fans have 3-5x engineering margin, they are expected to cool the box even when severely clogged and some have died |
00:33 |
asciilifeform |
this comes at the cost of 'sounds like shop vac' |
00:33 |
billymg |
ahh, gotcha |

~ 25 minutes ~ |

billymg: I also went with stock supermicro. I wish I'd bought a couple more 1Us from the same supplier honestly. |

~ 3 hours 33 minutes ~ |

thimbronion: ah, perfect |

billymg |
for $125 that looks like a great deal |

Implemented title search on alethepedia. Works well, IMO. Content search will work better via a bot, I think. |

thimbronion: nice! |

thimbronion: why would content search work better via bot than www? |

~ 1 hours 29 minutes ~ |

thimbronion |
billymg: Actually I don't know. Probably should have said "Title only search actually works, and combining it with content search, which doesn't at the moment, is going to be really hard." |
23:18 |

asciilifeform: regarding the idea of having only one chan, I will miss having a separate forum in which to discuss Alethepedia. |
23:18 |
asciilifeform |
billymg: thimbronion: imho the separateness was rather an illusion |

(asciilifeform) 2021-06-17 asciilifeform: ... i'm reminded of an ancient sovok joke, where crew of a plane gets stranded each on separate island, and the american d00d when rescued is found to have built a 'whites' and 'coloureds' mess hall on his etc |
23:19 |
thimbronion |
there was lots of overlap. idk if you mind me spamming your channel with alethepedia stuff though. |
23:19 |
asciilifeform |
why'd i mind, lol |
23:19 |
asciilifeform |
and if we ever absolutely cannot stomach one another, can make separate nets painlessly. |
23:19 |
snsabot |
(asciilifeform) 2021-06-18 asciilifeform: at no point does anyone have to declare jihad. simply they walk off to separate nets by severing links. |
23:20 |

I though somewhat off topic - in my mind #asciilifeform was about trb work. |
23:20 |
asciilifeform |
thimbronion: naa that was supposed to be #therealbitcoin |
23:20 |
billymg |
thimbronion: this is what i resolved without mentioning to asciilifeform, that i would simply spam his channel with design/outreach talk until asked to create a new net |
23:20 |
billymg |
althought, i supposed won't be "his channel" in dulapnet? |
23:20 |
thimbronion |
ok. cool. will spam away. |
23:20 |
asciilifeform |
billymg: recall also on usenet, folx simply filtered, w/ eyes & w/ 'killfile', subjs/people they were uninterested in, w/out necessarily having to leave a group |
23:21 |
asciilifeform |
there's a good bit of talking 'past' one another that folx can do w/out necessarily pissing each other off to the point that they gotta build an impenetrable wall b/w one another. |
23:21 |
billymg |
asciilifeform: i just missed the usenet days, but this concept makes sense |
23:22 |

I purchased Ultima 6 via usenet. |

Only played the one, but was blown away. |
23:23 |
asciilifeform |
started, funnily, w '4', found boxed (comp. w/ cloth map..) in junk store in '94 |
23:24 |
thimbronion |
Mailed a check for it! |
23:25 |
asciilifeform |
aha, i bought various on usenet, sight unseen, mailed cashier cheque, bought tape drive, etc |
