[00:17:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> Team Z is really the only way to go. Siding with any group of normies is way too much work for an inevitable tragic end.
[00:17:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> join the winning side right off and enjoy tasty, tasty brains.
[00:18:29] <Ethanol-fueled> zombie apocalypse = ****** *****
[00:19:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> sorry, Ethanol-fueled, team Z is an EoE.
[00:19:46] <TheMightyBuzzard> black, white, yellow, red; it don't matter long as you dead.

[00:35:25] <TheMightyBuzzard> okay, back to binge watchin buffy reruns
[00:35:35] NotSanguine-away is now known as NotSanguine
[00:37:13] <Ethanol-fueled> buffy?!
[00:37:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> shit yeah. some quality funny to be had in that show.
[00:37:47] <Ethanol-fueled> Some quality bewbs, that is.
[00:38:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> pffft, nah. all small chested on that show.
[00:39:46] <Ethanol-fueled> smal bewbs don't flop.
[00:39:59] <Ethanol-fueled> The good large ones don't either.
[00:40:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> or bounce. or jiggle. and they perform sadly during motor-boating.
[00:40:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> C cup or take your ass back to puberty and do it right this time.
[00:40:55] <Ethanol-fueled> !grab TheMightyBuzzard
[00:40:55] <Bender> Added quote 675
[00:41:15] * TheMightyBuzzard nods
[00:44:04] <Ethanol-fueled> Agreed
[00:47:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> blerg. i need to slap some more ram in this bitch of a computer.
[00:47:46] <Ethanol-fueled> Yeah, I got "la puta computadora" as well
[00:48:07] <Ethanol-fueled> high time to purchase another refurb Dell
[00:49:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> this fucker just needs to go from 8GB to 16GB
[00:51:22] <Ethanol-fueled> Problem is, it's not as economical to build systems as it was years ago.
[00:52:13] <Ethanol-fueled> Beacuse everybody's doing it now
[00:53:00] <Ethanol-fueled> I gotta buy a new deskie soon. Likely a refurb Dell.
[00:53:33] <Ethanol-fueled> The novelty of building systems from scratch wore off after the first time I did it.
[00:54:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> i dunno man. i'm as picky about what i put in my box as a 12yo schoolgirl.
[00:54:36] <Ethanol-fueled> IN murrica you can buy systems piecemeal from Fry's, but you're gonna pay more than buying a refurb box from Newegg
[00:55:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya but it'll be built with parts that don't suck ass.
[00:55:55] <Ethanol-fueled> Refurb Dell it's gonna be.
[00:56:26] <Ethanol-fueled> Whatever their latest_generation_server - 1 generation is, I'm buying it.
[00:57:16] <Ethanol-fueled> My deskie box (Optiplex GX620) can't even do virtualization /ANdroid development without hacks.
[00:58:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> ye gads man
[00:58:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> mine's five years old and still does everything i tell it to. just needs more ram to stave off upgrading for another 3-5 years
[00:59:07] <Ethanol-fueled> Would be nice to build a modern system for the sake of staying fast and modern though
[01:00:04] <Ethanol-fueled> Hahahh, I have 2.5 gigs of RAM, 2.8 GHz x86
[01:00:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> really i got no idea what building one even costs nowadays. mine was top o the freakin line when i built it for a grand five years ago.
[01:00:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> cept vid card which was mid-range.
[01:00:55] <Ethanol-fueled> I stole my graphics card from the work boneyard
[01:01:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> ack
[01:01:19] <Ethanol-fueled> ended up flaming out. Mmmm, that smell of burning carbon
[01:01:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> burnt caps ftw
[01:01:57] <Ethanol-fueled> Every vertic al scan line of my raster was green
[01:02:10] <Ethanol-fueled> Ruh-ROh. and something smells funny, too.
[01:03:20] <Ethanol-fueled> Glad I'm a poorfag who buys with INtel integrated graphics.
[01:03:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> makes me happy this cpu/motherboard are still kickin right along after five years.
[01:09:07] <Ethanol-fueled> got a message from a fat chick
[01:11:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> don't let me detain you then
[01:11:54] <Ethanol-fueled> sweet, I won't.
[01:12:01] <Ethanol-fueled> We'll see
[01:12:52] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: so... running AMD?
[01:13:17] <Ethanol-fueled> Gravis, I run Dell. INtel, good hardware
[01:13:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> yar. they made good chips right up through the phenom 2
[01:14:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> i am not, however, interested in any sort of APU
[01:14:13] <Ethanol-fueled> AMD was rad as fuck
[01:14:14] <Gravis> i'd love to see someone make a RISC V chip
[01:14:22] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: yeah, APU is lame
[01:14:24] <Ethanol-fueled> my first box was AMD
[01:14:35] <Ethanol-fueled> Athlon T-Bird
[01:14:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> mine was ibm
[01:14:48] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: ibm what?
[01:14:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> well no, i tell a lie. it was whatever came in trs-80s
[01:15:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> first pc chip was a 386
[01:15:42] <Gravis> yeah... x86 is so fucked up
[01:15:44] <Ethanol-fueled> God dammit.
[01:15:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> sx i think. likely 16Hhz
[01:15:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> Mhz even
[01:16:08] <Ethanol-fueled> Hahahah, only the rich kids has DX/SX
[01:16:16] <Ethanol-fueled> "turbo" button
[01:16:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> damn right.
[01:16:19] <Ethanol-fueled> Bahahahah
[01:16:21] <Gravis> ARMv8 is better... but RISC V is king
[01:16:30] * TheMightyBuzzard shurgs
[01:16:55] <Ethanol-fueled> The ones that could play "DOOM"
[01:16:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm not picky for my desktop but i gotta own a box that'll run games.
[01:16:58] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: i prefer to not waste energy and i hate the sound of fans
[01:17:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh man, i'm unhappy if my box don't sound like a jet engine
[01:17:48] <Gravis> hmm... so you're one of those fools.
[01:18:10] <Gravis> the only moving parts my PC has are the optical drives
[01:18:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> i dig building aftermarket fan brackets and using all the old 80mm power supply fans i have lying around.
[01:18:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> and overvolting them using a 20v laptop power supply
[01:18:57] <Gravis> that's retarded
[01:19:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> meh, beats water cooling for safety.
[01:19:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> sides, the white noise helps me sleep
[01:19:47] <Gravis> yes, water cooling is retarded too. passive cooling is the best option
[01:19:48] <Bytram> TheMightyBuzzard: IIRC, the TRS-80 had an Intel 8086
[01:20:07] <Bytram> may have been an 8080, but I doubt it.
[01:20:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> Bytram, could be. no idear.
[01:20:13] <Bytram> oh, wait. Was prolly a Z-80
[01:20:18] <Bytram> from Zilog.
[01:20:34] <Ethanol-fueled> ONly rich kids owned Z-80s
[01:20:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> Gravis, passive cooling means you're letting 50% of your performance sit on its ass.
[01:21:01] <Bytram> https://en.wikipedia.org "The TRS-80 Micro Computer System is a desktop microcomputer launched in 1977 and sold by Tandy Corporation through their Radio Shack stores. The name is an abbreviation of Tandy/Radio Shack, Z-80 microprocessor. It was one of the earliest mass-produced personal computers. "
[01:21:01] <snowfire> ^ 03Wiki: TRS-80
[01:21:39] <Bytram> the '-80' of 'TRS-80' denoted the processor (Z-80) and the TRS stood for 'Tandy Radio Shack'
[01:22:16] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: no, it means i use less electricity and don't have any need for blistering fast processing power 100% of the time.
[01:22:23] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: it means i run linux.
[01:23:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> as do i, and though it'll hit 3.8GHz when it needs to, mine runs at 800MHz most of the time.
[01:23:32] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: so it's the same as what i do.
[01:23:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> but it also don't shit a brick or take forever when i wanna reencode a 1080p movie.
[01:23:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> using all six cores
[01:24:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> it just cranks up the multiplier and the fan speed and does what i tell it.
[01:24:50] <Ethanol-fueled> Buzzardm does it do the ultrasound squeal?
[01:25:01] <Gravis> i've never had a need to reencode movies.
[01:25:10] * Bytram ears pick up. Was that for me?
[01:25:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah. cpu fan is actually relatively quiet.
[01:25:15] <Gravis> i download, watch and delete them.
[01:25:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> Gravis, sometimes i gotta fix them when they're encoded too high a bitrate for the raspberry pi in the livingroom to play.
[01:26:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> that is NOT a powerful computer.
[01:26:35] <Ethanol-fueled> But it's a useful one.
[01:26:45] NotSanguine is now known as Notsanguine-isright
[01:26:59] <Bytram> which reminds me, I just remembered seeing a headline about a new verison of the RPi?
[01:27:01] Notsanguine-isright is now known as NotSanguine-away\
[01:27:04] <Bytram> *version
[01:27:06] NotSanguine-away\ is now known as NotSanguine-away
[01:27:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> true. get to sit on my ass and watch network shared movies in the living room without finding space for a media center pc
[01:27:17] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: shouldn't math heavy stuff like that be a GPGPU operation?
[01:27:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> Bytram, you mean the $5 one?
[01:27:42] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: seriously, why involve your CPU in something your GPU accels at?
[01:27:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> Gravis, ideally but no. GPU floating point math is not accurate.
[01:28:06] <Bytram> I'm not sure. Saw the headline in #rss-bot as I was relaunching hexChat.
[01:28:24] <Ethanol-fueled> Gravis, because unless you;re cracking encryption, the RPI can do 1080P media servation
[01:28:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> in other words, you get lower quality encodes out of using a vid card.
[01:28:59] <Ethanol-fueled> GPGPU shit is for cracking encryption or running a render farm.
[01:29:20] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: it's part integer pipelines, floating point and double preciosion floating point pipelines. how can you say it's not accurate?
[01:29:23] * Ethanol-fueled wonders why he is addressing Gravis, while he is ignored
[01:29:33] <Gravis> precision*
[01:29:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> Gravis, because of the way the math is done on gaming cards, as opposed to cad cards.
[01:31:10] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: so... you're not privy to GPGPU, eh?
[01:31:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> they use a powers of two cheat, i forget the details. it is close enough for rendering a game but NOT accurate enough to calculate with.
[01:32:38] <TheMightyBuzzard> Gravis, i used the gpu for bitcoin mining back a couple years ago before i got another one but no, i tend to let the gpu do graphics and the cpu do everything else.
[01:33:25] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: yeah, you are not taking full advantage of your system's capabilities.
[01:33:57] * Ethanol-fueled is gonna fuck a fat chick tonight
[01:34:12] <Ethanol-fueled> I'll try and post pics for you all
[01:34:22] <Gravis> when it comes to processing large streams of data, GPGPU wins every time
[01:34:40] * Ethanol-fueled knows about accessing large streams of data
[01:35:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> only on speed. on encoding video the quality is noticeably better when you do not use the gpu.
[01:36:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> it's not a new thing. been a problem with gpus since there were gpus.
[01:36:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> http://www.cs.unc.edu
[01:36:20] <snowfire> ^ 03GPU Floating-Point Paranoia
[01:36:34] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: the video quality is the same, there is no deviation.
[01:36:36] <Bytram> Not all floating point calculations are created equal. ISTR an IEEE spec that details the size of the characteristic and mantissa and a slew of error states/conditions. x86 CPUs, to my knowledge, support that standard, whereas GPUs generally do not need such detail and so use a smaller number of bits for their calculations.
[01:37:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> Gravis, you are wrong.
[01:37:11] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: video encoding is not done with floating point.
[01:37:40] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: it's all integer based
[01:37:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> no, it is done via built-in h264 encoding pipelines nowadays. which the cpu also has nowadays.
[01:38:08] <Bytram> https://en.wikipedia.org
[01:38:08] <snowfire> ^ 03Wiki: IEEE floating point
[01:38:16] * Ethanol-fueled signs
[01:38:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> and they very much do skimp on the ones on video cards.
[01:38:21] <Gravis> /facepalm
[01:38:25] * Ethanol-fueled sighs even
[01:38:44] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: it's best that you stay in your lane of knowledge.
[01:38:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> Gravis, test it.
[01:38:51] <Ethanol-fueled> Interger arithmetic with respect to computer graphics is done with COON BASHIN'

[01:39:02] * Ethanol-fueled chuckles
[01:39:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> encode from a very high quality source on gpu. check the psnr. do the same on cpu.
[01:40:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> you will always get a better psnr from your cpu because it does not have the luxury of cutting corners. it has to be Accurate.

[01:47:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> got the lights working for my trailer finally a week or two ago. had to order in some 12v relays and build a couple xor gates so when the brakes are on and the turn signal tries to flash, the brake/turn light cuts off when the turn signal tells it to turn on
[01:48:13] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: so... tell me how crisp your bits are over your Monster cables. -_-
[01:49:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> Gravis, dude, just because you don't believe a gpu maker would ever optimize for a (h264 encoding) benchmark doesn't mean it's true
[01:49:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> use science. test it. you'll find out i'm right.
[01:50:02] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: oh no, they would cheat for sure but they can't cheat when it's an interger based codec.
[01:50:06] <Ethanol-fueled> Bytram, I would happily oblige, if I had control over the situation.
[01:50:12] <Bytram> #submit http://phys.org Now in a new paper, physicists have reported what they believe is the first photonic implementation of Maxwell's demon, by showing that measurements made on two light beams can be used to create an energy imbalance between the beams, from which work can be extracted. One of the interesting things about this experiment is that the extracted work can then be used to ch
[01:50:12] <Bytram> providing direct evidence of the "demon's" activity.
[01:50:16] <MrPlow> Submitting. Be patient, there's a mandatory delay
[01:50:27] <Bytram> Ethanol-fueled: appreciate the thought.
[01:50:31] <Ethanol-fueled> Until then, I'm going to have to give you all....VALENTINES DAY PREPARATION OF THE EXTENDERS
[01:50:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> it's not. there are specifically h264 encoding instructions for gpus.
[01:50:42] <Ethanol-fueled> http://i.imgur.com
[01:50:45] <Ethanol-fueled> HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH
[01:50:46] <MrPlow> Story submitted. https://soylentnews.org
[01:50:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> and they most certainly do cheat on those.
[01:50:52] * Bytram once went to SD and thoroughly enjoyed his visit.
[01:51:41] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: h264 specific functions? yes. h264 specific instructions? no.
[01:51:56] * TheMightyBuzzard shakes his head
[01:52:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> that's just sad that you don't even know what's on your silicon.
[01:52:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> Gravis, you know this argument can be resolved with a very small amount of science, yes? reencode a movie twice. check the psnr.
[01:53:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> i HAVE done this, so i do not need to.
[01:54:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> anyway. time for nicotine and BtVS
[01:54:46] <Ethanol-fueled> Bytram, SD is a rad city. I suspect it won't be that way for long, though - property Jews want to turn it into San Francisco.
[01:54:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> you lot have fun.
[01:54:56] <Ethanol-fueled> PEACE
[01:55:25] <Bytram> Ethanol-fueled: to clarify, I visited back in '95... I suspect a few things may have changed since then. :)
[01:56:54] <Gravis> TheMightyBuzzard: i've actually worked with GPUs on low level shit, so please, tell me all about the H264 specific instructions as it seems to be omitted from my GPU ISA manual: http://developer.amd.com

[04:38:36] <Gravis> Deucalion: i'm wise enough to know that the existance of such a blog is of no consequence and can only bring harm.
[04:40:19] <Deucalion> If written by you, that would be true :P
[04:41:42] <Gravis> it's exceptionally rare that a blog can do anyone any good aside from the emotional catharsis that i may provide.
[04:41:51] <Gravis> it*
[04:47:18] <Deucalion> You dismiss emotional catharsis in such an off-hand manner. Venting one's spleen to an audience of none is better than becoming mired in a quagmire of your own delusion, no? Or should we all bottle everything up, never speak of emotion, pretend it does not exist, become mere robots in life, machines?
[04:49:31] <Gravis> Deucalion: oh, just take those negative emotions, push them way down and cram them into a tiny ball until one day you explode and lash out at a stranger in a parking lot. ;P
[04:50:06] <Gravis> Deucalion: i'm not dismissing it, it's a useful thing for some people.

[08:40:40] <dyingtolive> didn't have to.
[08:40:50] <dyingtolive> not complaining though.
[08:40:54] <SirFinkus> why not, effort was put into the post
[08:40:56] <dyingtolive> strange though.
[08:42:01] <dyingtolive> i mean, normally i forget to check certain boxes when i should, let alone willfully check them without trying, but i'll just keep an eye out in the future.
[08:42:21] <SirFinkus> I'd bet that's what happened

[09:00:24] <SirFinkus> naw, I always shower before bed
[09:00:28] <SirFinkus> I can get up later
[09:00:49] <SirFinkus> furthermore, I'd worked up a particularly heinous smell tonight
[09:02:46] <dyingtolive> i know how that goes. that was sautrday for me. helped a friend build drywall frame for his basement.
[09:02:58] <SirFinkus> I think mine was aoe 2 and guitar
[09:03:03] <dyingtolive> amazing how much you can sweat below freezing.
[09:03:04] <SirFinkus> I sweat like a pig when I play guitar
[09:03:19] <SirFinkus> that shit will kill you if you aren't careful
[09:03:21] <SirFinkus> sweating in the cold
[09:04:00] <dyingtolive> i couldn't ever hack guitar, but i played a couple brass instruments and never worked up much of a sweat. maybe it's the ladies crowding around you so tight you can't move your body?
[09:04:36] <SirFinkus> I suspect it's more physical than you're typical brass instrument, trombone aside
[09:04:58] <dyingtolive> yeah, we had a space heater inside with periodic huddling sessions. it got cold, and then hot, and then cold. probably why i felt like crap all day.
[09:05:21] <dyingtolive> i could see that, though i was a "tromboner".
[09:06:01] <SirFinkus> probably the concentration too
[09:06:09] <SirFinkus> it'd explain my aoe2 sweats
[09:06:10] <dyingtolive> also played trumpet too sometimes. in high school it was like third chair though, and in the band i was briefly in, well, i was the only one who could read sheet music, so... first?
[09:06:22] <SirFinkus> I've decided to try and get good at it
[09:06:28] <SirFinkus> ha
[09:07:29] <SirFinkus> today I got it to the point where I can beat the normal ai every time
[09:07:39] <SirFinkus> so time for the next level I guess
[09:07:44] <dyingtolive> aoe2, not the guitar, right? )
[09:07:49] <SirFinkus> yeah
[09:07:57] <SirFinkus> well, I want to get good at guitar too
[09:08:08] <SirFinkus> I hope it doesn't have an AI
[09:08:09] <dyingtolive> i remember playing it back in the day. i do civ nowadays.
[09:08:18] <dyingtolive> well, i was a little concerned.
[09:08:22] <SirFinkus> aoe2 hd is awesome
[09:08:29] <dyingtolive> about the possible ai in your guitar that is.
[09:08:41] <SirFinkus> it'd be very well hidden
[09:09:11] <SirFinkus> given I've ripped out and replaced all the electronics in it aside from the volume knob
[09:09:28] <dyingtolive> i put some effort into it, but the only things i could manage to play was "Wish you were here" and "little green bag".
[09:09:45] <dyingtolive> i don't have long enough fingers for F chords.
[09:10:08] <SirFinkus> sure you do
[09:12:15] <dyingtolive> not on the guitar i was practicing on, anyway, but it was cheap strings on what i think was basla wood. it probably wasn't a good guitar, but it's my dad's from when he was young. maybe there's a differnce in quality that would make up for it, but i don't feel i had the knack for it i had for other instruments.
[09:12:39] <SirFinkus> acoustic or electric?
[09:12:45] <dyingtolive> accoustic.
[09:12:54] <SirFinkus> yeah, they're a bit tougher to play
[09:13:42] <dyingtolive> i fucked around with a base for a while. i have a knack for harmony. i think it's due to all those years with my trombone in my hands.
[09:15:09] <dyingtolive> actually wrote some music for a game some friends of mine were working on. it was going great until they realized it was only haromny, drums, and effects with no melody. :(

[11:19:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> Gravis, we were both wrong. When you offload video encoding to a video card, it isn't even done on the same silicon as the gpu; it is a fixed function, separate chip entirely for nvidia, amd, and intel all three. And there are no oss video encoders that can use the gpu that i could be using instead.
[11:19:40] <crutchy> you talking about shadowplay?
[11:20:10] <crutchy> shadowplay++
[11:20:10] <Bender> karma - shadowplay: 1
[11:21:50] <takyon> so you have three options, software, hardware (GPU), and hardware (fixed function)?
[11:23:06] <takyon> AFAICT these fixed function decoders have improved rapidly, allowing iGPUs and even phones to decode 4K video. They use less power than the other options.
[11:23:22] <crutchy> the also compress really good
[11:23:50] <crutchy> oh you talking about decoding
[11:25:01] <takyon> well both
[11:25:47] <takyon> I think the decode capabilities are usually emphasized since that's what most laptop/tablet/smartphone users are doing
[11:31:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> takyon, no, no gpu option
[11:31:46] <TheMightyBuzzard> and we're talking encoding not decoding

[11:32:10] <Bender> karma - coffee: 2219
[11:32:44] <takyon> the point stands, they improve both at a similar rate: http://www.anandtech.com
[11:32:50] <snowfire> ^ 03Intel's Skylake GPU - Analyzing the Media Capabilities
[11:33:18] <takyon> I just brought up the decoder because I know that 4K decoding is available on chips that may not have 4K encoding
[11:33:29] <TheMightyBuzzard> fixed-function encoders however have not improved in quality, which is why support for them is not even built into most oss projects.
[11:33:33] <takyon> as for "no", why? because the hardware is closed source
[11:33:37] <takyon> ?
[11:34:10] <takyon> http://images.anandtech.com
[11:34:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> someone could probably write an opencl encoder but apparently it's quite difficult because nobody has.
[11:35:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, intel's is the best of the bunch but it's new-ish that they even have one.
[11:36:04] <takyon> yeah that's one problem. Skylake or Carizzo or whatever might have great new hardware, but it takes 3-5 years to proliferate
[11:37:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> even then, apples to apples comparison, you get better quality out of cpu than you do out of intel's quick sync chip
[11:37:08] <Runaway1956> Ho-hum. Can't get my son to come to Soylent to comment on the github article. I did post his layman's opinion of it though.
[11:37:19] <takyon> yeah I saw it
[11:37:55] <takyon> time to see if there are any AMD Zen leaks
[11:38:12] <Runaway1956> Heresy - AMD has no leaks!
[11:38:36] <takyon> holy fuck
[11:38:58] <takyon> they do have leaks, and as of maybe 2 years ago, apparently a CERN engineer has leaked details of a 32 core Zen chip
[11:39:06] * Runaway1956 calls the High Priest of AMD to report Takyon
[11:39:20] <takyon> I'm guessing that's more of a competitor to Intel Xeon, but still interesting
[11:39:36] <Runaway1956> More seriously, I had to upgrade my CPU's just to be able to run VM's - yeah, I know AMD has leaks
[11:39:42] <takyon> 8 channels of DDR4
[11:39:54] <takyon> oh I meant "2 hours ago" not "2 years ago"
[11:40:07] * crutchy uses amd's for vms

[11:45:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> takyon, toldja it was flamebait =P
[11:45:46] <TheMightyBuzzard> gender politics always is, because men are constantly under attack.
[11:45:56] <Runaway1956> You and Takyon both - he insists that AMD isn't perfect!
[11:46:14] <FatPhil> if there's any x86 in it, it's not perfect
[11:46:40] * Runaway1956 sets to work creating a more easily indoctrinated species of mankind
[11:46:59] <FatPhil> procreating, or just creating?
[11:47:23] <Runaway1956> Just creating - that procreating nonsense has worn me out, and turned me into an old man.
[11:47:41] * Subsentient will do all he can to prevent ever having children
[11:47:54] <takyon> well i guess I will submit the AMD story, CERN angle is interesting
[11:48:03] <takyon> the only flamebait there will be their hot-ass processors
[11:48:12] <Subsentient> Bad genetics. Kid has a high risk for autism, OCD, cancer, heart disease, and a bad disposition..
[11:48:30] * Subsentient puffs on a cancer stick
[11:48:34] <takyon> every kid has a high risk for bad disposition
[11:49:18] <Runaway1956> Wait a second - are some of us pretending that WE don't have bad dispositions? Hell, I thought that was a plus . . .
[11:50:22] <takyon> if you rearrange those symptoms, you could create the Perfect Warrior. Autism and OCD for precision, uncontrolled cell growth for rapid healing, the correct heart disease to alter mood and fitness, and a disposition poor enough to create a killing machine
[11:50:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> takyon, it's okay to post the occasional flamebait. people would get bored without it and wander off or worse yet infect non-flamebait stories.
[11:52:40] <takyon> I still think a politics nexus containment zone could take care of this.
[11:53:11] <takyon> If it's not on the mainpage by default, anons will have to click 1-3 more times to get there, and it keeps the main page clear of what most posters seem to hate
[11:53:32] <takyon> and since we're in the thick of the 2016 elections season, we're going to see a huge ramp up of political content
[11:54:11] <takyon> for politics stories the commentariat can handle, we slap the Main Page or Breaking News nexus on to it to make it hit the mainpage. or at least I think that's how it works
[11:55:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, i would have liked to have put it in this last update but it didn't make the cut.
[11:56:38] <takyon> politics being separate from the "liberty" nexus concept
[11:59:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, that's a more narrow scoped brand of politics but would see plenty of traffic to justify.
[12:00:01] <takyon> I added a comment on the bug report and I will get you a screenshot now
[12:00:51] <takyon> http://puu.sh
[12:00:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> cheers. could ya do a quick debug for me and switch fonts once or twice as well?
[12:01:31] <takyon> sure, but I think the immediate cause is clear, which can be found by editing the article
[12:01:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> okay, still not seeing extra space. mayhaps your eyes have a stronger aversion to bad kerning than mine?
[12:01:46] <takyon> the system adds a space that wasn't there when I submitted it:
[12:01:55] <takyon> <a href="http://www.defensenews.com/story/defense-news/2016/02/12/dsca-approves-f-16-block-52-sales-pakistan/80304896/">DSCA official told <em>Defense News</em> </a>
[12:01:58] <snowfire> ^ 03DSCA Approves F-16 Block-52 Sales to Pakistan
[12:02:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> ooooh, you mean the extra space at the very end?
[12:02:07] <takyon> the space between </em> and </a> is not what I typed
[12:02:09] <takyon> yeah
[12:02:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> that i can prolly find but it still looks like kerning to me.
[12:03:07] <takyon> it's by far a space
[12:03:18] <takyon> the way HTML works you can't normally have two spaces next to each other
[12:03:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> nope, there's sure enough an extra space after the closing em tag
[12:03:44] <takyon> well bad example since there's a period after it
[12:04:25] <takyon> the evidence is in: SoylentNews COMPLETELY RUINED my submission
[12:04:38] <takyon> OCD diagnosis forthcoming
[12:05:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'd fix it in the db but that's an insanely long value to worry about copy/pasting correctly with escaped characters n all.
[12:06:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> some editor will just have to take care of it.
[12:06:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> wonder where we can find one
[12:15:39] <takyon> no I don't think an editor can take care of it
[12:15:52] <takyon> I think no matter how many times you wipe the space away, it will keep on getting added by the system
[12:17:09] <cmn32480> the <em> tag space?
[12:17:13] <takyon> yes
[12:17:20] <cmn32480> always gets added. regardless of if you preview or not.
