[23:59:41] <jasassin> yeah thats some funny shit too
[23:59:39] * TheMightyBuzzard shurgs
[23:59:19] <Fnord666> the tea cup. of course.
[23:58:56] <jasassin> i was thinking chronicles of riddick
[23:58:43] <Fnord666> I thought was SOS.
[23:58:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> boot camp leftover in my brain
[23:58:02] <Fnord666> tmb - ah the famous "twist to remove" knife.
[23:57:37] <jasassin> :)
[23:57:12] <Fnord666> You keep lobbing em and I'll keep swinging
[23:57:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> between the 2nd and 3rd rib. snap, twist, withdraw.
[23:56:55] * jasassin was waiting for it
[23:56:46] <Fnord666> is through his rib cage.
[23:56:30] <jasassin> they way to a mans heart....
[23:56:13] * jasassin laughs
[23:55:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> man my regular booty call chick made it one night when she didn't wanna deal with my cooking. the roomie wants to sex her now too.
[23:54:51] <jasassin> that doesn't sound bad at all
[23:54:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> thas all the instructions.
[23:54:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> if ya take a notion to try it, stir every 10m.
[23:54:19] <Fnord666> The best kind of food. Tastes good, not a ton of work.
[23:54:11] <jasassin> i think i just tasted it through the nets
[23:53:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> it is and it takes like 5m to get started. bachelor food in a big way.
[23:53:31] <Bender> karma - nicotine: 248
[23:53:31] <jasassin> nicotine++
[23:53:18] <jasassin> exactly
[23:53:16] <Fnord666> ok that sounds good to me.
[23:53:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh and cajun seasoning all over it
[23:53:02] <Fnord666> So it's both or neither?
[23:52:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> hot sausage, cabbage, onion, cook half an hour in a covered skillet. stuff in tortillas. eat
[23:52:49] <jasassin> it definitely sounds questionable
[23:52:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> good question. i call em mexican eggrolls but they ain't either mexican nor eggrolls. it's just kids will eat stuff better if it has a name.
[23:51:42] <jasassin> what ya having?
[23:51:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm bout to be boring. bout 5m till food's done.
[23:51:18] <Fnord666> especially with the drive being broken and all.
[23:51:01] <jasassin> you guys crack me up
[23:50:52] <jasassin> glad i got the nets back
[23:50:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> figured.
[23:50:29] <Fnord666> Ah, one of those "um...thanks?" moments
[23:50:26] <jasassin> hahahhahaha
[23:50:24] <jasassin> not him, you
[23:49:57] <jasassin> but he wouldn't keep it hahahahahahhahaha DICK
[23:49:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> well of course. it prolly had head cooties ya reefer-smokin hippie. =P
[23:49:45] <jasassin> no its not because he doesn't like trump, he asked where to get one and i took it off and put it on his head
[23:49:10] <jasassin> i tried givin this guy in walmart my donald trump hat, but he wouldn't take it
[23:49:06] * Fnord666 nods in understanding
[23:48:45] * jasassin cackles
[23:48:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> Fnord666, i'm just the kind of guy who'll give you the shirt off his back if you ask but shoot you in the face if you try to take it.

[23:46:33] <TheMightyBuzzard> it's usually only made by folks what see the progressives trying to use guilt as a mitigation against stealing their money.
[23:45:35] <Fnord666> I was not aware of that distinction tmb.
[23:45:26] <jasassin> definitely maybe!
[23:45:05] <Fnord666> occasionally maybe?
[23:44:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> altruists think they owe something. normal old decent human beings simply engage in charity cause it's a nice thing to do.
[23:44:47] <jasassin> always sometimes
[23:44:35] <Fnord666> sometimes?
[23:44:27] <jasassin> maybe
[23:44:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> nevar!
[23:44:15] <Fnord666> :-)

[23:43:15] <jasassin> well when the nets down and you happen to have burned some jap prono
[23:43:10] <TheMightyBuzzard> occasionally. neighbors want a dvd burned every now n then.
[23:42:44] <Fnord666> people still use optical drives?
[23:41:55] * jasassin laughs and nods
[23:41:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> i ain't buyin another just for that though

[19:14:26] <janrinok> noted
[19:13:12] <Runaway1956> My comments on the story reflect that, in case anyone who reads it doesn't understand what Pravda is
[19:12:46] <janrinok> zactly
[19:12:40] <Runaway1956> We gotta bear in mind that this is from Pravda - the propaganda machine.
[19:12:30] <janrinok> prolly save it for the weekend, it doesn't look very authoritative to me

[02:16:45] <takyon> AMD is going to put out a good and cheap Zen 8 core for desktops, 16 core for some segment, and 32 for servers or something
[02:16:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, was more like a core slap-fight

[02:14:33] <FatPhil> Someone needs to put serious funding behind the Mill architecture
[02:14:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> sure but i want a faster cpu, damnit.
[02:14:01] <takyon> although without competition, it could just be a rebranding exercise all the way down to 7nm
[02:13:42] <takyon> heck, that's already started with Intel's 3-year cycles
[02:13:24] <takyon> that's a good thing. a technology gap will force efficiency gains to be made elsewhere
[02:13:20] <FatPhil> Because we keep rehashing the same shit
[02:13:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> i mean there really hasn't been significant performance improvement in 6-8 years.
[02:12:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> might happen in the next 10-15 years. will not happen in time for any laws to be upheld.

[02:10:55] <takyon> there's still a few orders of magnitude of improvement in the can, it's just unclear whether it will come out fast enough to satisfy "laws" and projections

[02:08:08] <FatPhil> They basically admitted that they were missing both kinds of deadlines, and have tried to persuade the market that it's deliberate
[02:07:29] <FatPhil> Anyway, it's 1 whole step forward every 54 months, rather than every 36 months.
[02:07:03] <FatPhil> process/architecture/optimisation? or something.
[02:06:25] <FatPhil> it's not tick-tick-tock, though, it's more tick-tock-tweak.
[02:05:23] <chromas> columns per inch
[02:04:25] <takyon> they got sued over that
[02:04:23] <FatPhil> sometimes called CPI to reduce ambiguity, and make smaller=better true
[02:04:22] <takyon> which is a believable claim because Bulldozer and its successors were stuck with a bad architecture and fake "cores" (modules)
[02:03:49] <chromas> I was thinking inter-proces communication

[02:00:26] <chromas> they need ddr
[01:56:35] <FatPhil> When they focussed on that, they did a grand job, power consumtion dropped ~80%
[01:56:00] <FatPhil> In part I'm sure it's because they felt a threat from lower-power devices, and realised that they could just keep on turning out 100+W cores
[01:54:41] <FatPhil> I wonder if that's because they changed from tick-tock to tick-whatever-tock
[01:52:32] <takyon> like 3-11%.
[01:52:21] <takyon> *anemic IPC gains generation-on-generation.
[01:51:58] <takyon> FatPhil: I have been saying that Zen is AMD's big (last?) chance to compete with Intel. Recover lost ground with a huge increase in IPC, while Intel continues to deliver anemic IPC. Boost (real) core counts on the desktop chips. Good-as-usual AMD graphics on mobile chips.
[01:50:10] <FatPhil> takyon: interesting. I just posted that link to a channel of ex-workmates, many of whom work for intel in the graphics group. I'll see if they spill any beans.
