<0> SvX: because they have to make it look like it does SOMETHING other than play games
<1> I p***ed up a Cray for $6500 a few years ago
<0> so they pimp the 2d image quality, **** like that.
<0> ouch
<0> FooLKillR: I've got no use for a cluster right now
<2> I mean when editing a video, the video is probably the same quality as when watching a DVD on your computer.
<0> SvX: yes, its bull****.
<1> rukk: I'd buy it and tell it off again
<0> meh
<1> sell
<0> and if it doesnt sell?
<2> I editted video before. the resolution of the video is like streaming an mpeg. woopdee do
<0> I'm stuck with 25ghz of cluster.
<1> well, I have lots of income that I waste away
<1> I really should be saving some, heh
<0> heh
<0> I dont have enough income and way too many projects that need TONS
<0> and I need to be saving for 3x different things
<1> ah, then don't buy it, heh
<0> indeed :P
<0> but I'm just saying
<1> although really, you could build a 50 Ghz cluster off e-bay for that much
<2> even when making games. you'll be fine with a geforce 6800. because the person playing the game will have his gpu working just as hard as the person who made the game.. why? because the graphics are the same for both of them
<0> that you can get a ton of processing power for **** like video encoding very cheaply
<1> SvX, a Geforce 6800GT runs Oblivion fine, but a 7800GTX would be better
<0> FooLKillR: theres a big difference between the crap mobo/cpu combos you buy on ebay, and quality reliable stuff that is fit to be used in a highly parallel computer.
<2> like a video game making needs a 1,000 dollar soundcard because making a video game takes lots of gpu. if thats so, then playing that video game would take the same amount of gpu
<1> Rukk, I've seen lots of IBM 1U rackmount dual 1 Ghz systems go for $100 on e-bay
<2> and whats with this sli?
<2> who the **** needs all that power
<1> someone who plays games at 1080i
<0> FooLKillR: usualy not complete.
<1> these had CPUs and RAM, just no HDDs
<1> net booting would solve that fine
<0> yeah
<0> usualy its something like the psu ;x
<1> people throw stuff away on e-bay
<0> yeah
<0> if you really wanted to
<0> and you put in the hours
<0> you could do it VERY cheaply
<1> hell, my webserver came off ebay
<0> heh
<0> I got a dual xeon that I traded for a radeon 8500 :\
<1> bastard
<0> its pretty sweet
<1> I dropped money on this Xeon long before I got into Ebay
<2> plus my pixel rate for this monitor is like 1280 by 1024
<0> SvX: so dont buy more than a 6800GS
<2> so its not like I can even take advantage of super duper high pixel rates
<1> SvX, get either a Geforce 6800GS, or a pair of 6600GTs
<1> you'll spend about the same
<0> not really
<1> at least here you would
<2> if you set xp to more pixel rates than the physical amount, it will make more "virtual" pixels. and you can more your mouse to the top of the screen and the screen will move
<0> ..
<0> your talking resolution
<2> yeah
<1> if you have a monitor that does more than 1280x1024, it will use that
<1> if not, you get the virtual desktop
<2> its best to have your resolution match your monitors pixel rate
<0> thanks for sharing?
<2> sorry
<1> lol
<2> I'm going to bed
<2> I have a calculus 3 test tomorrow
<2> double integrals and all that
<2> okay I'm getting the 6800GS!
<2> thanks bye
<1> well, I'm actually going to bed now
<1> night rukk
<0> night man
<3> why night? only 11pm
<0> 11:26pm, and I'm not going to bed
<3> real men sleep at 4am
<0> real men dont sleep.
<3> lol hell no
<0> although, I'm getting kinda sleepy :\
<4> anyone know of a good program to download to find out wireless signal strength, to find the best spot
<5> does anyone know how to change mac adress on a 3com nic?
<6> umm
<6> you're not supposed to be able to change a mac address..
<6> http://www.nthelp.com/NT6/change_mac_w2k.htm
<4> how can i detect where to place router#2/laptop to achieve the best signal.. is there a program i can use to pinpoint the best location?
<5> bauer; u can just try?
<0> company - always on the run - destiny is a rising sun
<0> hm
<0> time for a midnight culinary experiment!
<0> because I dont feel like making a omlette the normal way :D
<6> do it backwards
<6> with your eyes shut
<7> make it w/o eggs
<8> Hi, anyone know what program i need to open a .daa file?
<0> hrm
<0> while not entirely unsucesful..
<0> these dont have all the wonderful flavor I normally impart into my egglings
<9> hah i just ate choclatemilk and corn pops
<9> thats my midnight culinary
<0> lol
<0> now I'm making hardboiled eggs
<9> sounds great
<9> deviled eggs
<9> mm
<0> thats the plan
<0> I eat too many eggs :\
<0> they are cheap :\
<8> I think i want eggs 2.. How log are they suppoes to cook to get har boiled?
<9> i used to buy 5 dozen eggs at a time
<0> depends, do you want HARD boiled, or soft boiled? :x
<9> do you start with boiling water or cold water
<0> you can do either, but I believe cold is the normal way
<9> boiling water = 10 mins cold water = 20 i think
<0> I always do cold because I'm lazy
<0> well
<9> i do boiling im inpatient
<0> that depends
<0> on the size of the egg
<0> and how done you like them
<9> hah all the eggs around here are same size
<9> i like slightly cooked middle
<9> yellow not green =P
<0> for a normal sized egg
<0> a hard cooked "well done" yolk is about 10~ mins from boiling, so yeah
<0> also
<0> try adding a bit of salt ;)
<0> just like, a teaspoon
<0> to the water
<0> makes them easier to peel
<8> Oh, thanks.. :D
<0> if you like runny yolks, do 5 mins
<0> for medium (my personal fav) is 7-8
<8> Wow, i have xl eggs.. :D
<0> then add a couple minutes
<8> Nah, theyre not so big, jusst called xl eggs.. :P Last nite we were also talking about eggs, is this the egg channel or hardware channel? :P
<0> hardware.. nobody but me can cook in here
<8> Hehe, im accually pretty good at cooking stuff, just not eggs and potatos and stuff like that..
<0> cool
<0> you should hang around in here man
<0> that way I've got somebody to talk cooking with :D:D
<0> potatoes are easy ;x
<8> Hehe, i'm thinking of cooking some fish later.
<0> nice
<0> nothing better than a nice fresh fillet :)
<8> I know but i'm jusst not so fond of potatoes..
<0> best way to eat potatoes is latkahs :D
<0> with sour cream ;d
<0> or mashed with gravy
<0> latkahs are awesome too.. soo easy
<0> grate up potatoes and some onion, add milk and flour, mix well until its kinda thick
<0> add some garlic if you like
<0> make patties, fry in about 1/4" of canola oil
