[23:15:00] <FatPhil> I said mean things about GRSecurity 15 years ago
[23:04:39] <chromas> Linux is bad though 'cause Linus said mean things about grsecurity
[22:59:47] <FatPhil> i remember very much liking /The Jerk/ when I saw in in 1987. I've seen some clips since, and I'm not so sure I'd like it so much now.
[22:57:35] <FatPhil> I just trust linux to be stable on it as I know some devs.
[22:57:01] <FatPhil> they're not really particularly available for budget-conscious geeks on the street though.
[22:54:28] <FatPhil> ooooh, I'm up for having a cavium as my next machine
[22:37:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> introducing the boy child to The Jerk, Weird Science, and Tombstone
[22:37:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> roomie's girl child is out spending the night with a friend so we're watchin movies inappropriate for a 10yo girl
[22:36:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> big plans tonight

[22:13:34] <boru> Sounds like something that you'll probably find remasted on DVD.
[22:13:04] * TheMightyBuzzard wants a whore 2 duo
[22:13:02] <boru> I've got an OC'd 3930K for gaming which smokes half the xeons out there, and my next workhorse will be a Cavium ThunderX.
[22:12:24] <boru> NFI.
[22:11:37] <chromas> Aren't they still doing "core"?
[22:11:18] <boru> i.e. it doesn't start from the 8086 or some such.
[22:11:00] <boru> I think that, like everything else, they messed up their generations.
[22:05:46] <FatPhil> "core" only managed 2 generations?
[22:03:40] <FatPhil> not forgetting of course that one of the pentium generations was such a fuckup that the next one was based on a previous generation instead.
[22:02:42] <FatPhil> maybe they realised that pentium 5 would blow their cover about meaningless marketting.
[22:02:11] <FatPhil> how many pentium families were there? it got up to 4, didn't it?

[17:05:37] <FatPhil> My budget can easily stretch to that $30 - I'll get hunting - thanks!
[17:05:09] <FatPhil> ah, yeah, "amplifier" was messing with my search, it was giving me what are effectively just HDMI repeaters
[16:53:54] <AndyTheAbsurd> Yes - apparently they are called "HDMI audio extractors" and seem to be running around $30 on US amazon.com. Not sure what they'll be in your part of the world.
[16:53:37] <FatPhil> oooh, I guess there's USB audio as an alternative, doesn't need to be HDMI.
[16:52:18] <FatPhil> (And yes, the solution is to blow several hundreds on a hifi, but I'm looking for something more cheaparse)
[16:51:51] <FatPhil> Do small devices exist that will take laptop HDMI out, and amplify just the sound? the D2A in my laptop is SHIT, and it would be nice to drive something external with decent quality.

[15:24:07] <AndyTheAbsurd> enh. It's extremely verbose but you (almost) never write a COBOL program from scratch; you find an existing program and clone-and-hack from there. Plus it's a guaranteed moneymaker, at least until we get rid of all the currently-existing banks.
[15:24:04] <boru> Probably second time lucky.
