<2> Brandon Carl Vedas (known as ripper on IRC) (April 21, 1981 January 12, 2003) was a member of the Shroomery.org community who died of an overdose from prescription medication and recreational drugs while chatting on an IRC channel and uploading live video of the incident via webcam. His death led to considerable debate about the responsibilities and roles of online communities in life-threatening situations.
<3> hah
<4> Ive already banned whosthat twice
<3> heh
<3> like a bad penny
<3> worse than neeber
<4> Teen girl #1: You shouldn't chew gum; it makes you stupider.
<4> Teen girl #2: Oh yeah?
<4> Teen girl #1: Yeah, I heard that somewhere.
<4> Teen girl #2: Well, I heard somewhere that you're an idiot. No, wait, that was right here.
<3> orly
<3> Jen: make this day be over!
<3> monday ****s
<2> monday is prison break + 24
<2> I think joe dimaggio killed marilyn monroe
<3> i bet
<5> hi
<5> Ati or Nvidia for mostly 2D rendering with a flatscreen
<3> either
<5> spamalope, huh?!
<5> hows that possible?
<2> need for speed most wanted time, bbl
<3> laters
<3> msg43: ?
<5> spamalope, oh nvm I thought you were telling me not to use nvidida and ati
<5> I miss read it
<5> spamalope, so it doesn't matter cause I was told that ati better for LCD's
<3> hehe
<6> ati ****s
<5> Sh4dowcat, well I agree
<3> i wouldnt say it ****s
<2> no backlash
<2> it's a matter of opinion
<3> i like nvidia better
<3> but ati isnt bad
<2> I've been an ati supporter for years
<5> and I'm opt to go for nvidia because for the same price I can get a better core rate with nvidia than ati
<2> and a month ago I went and got a 6800 nvidia, but it didn't work, so I'm stuck wit hthe x700 PRO
<6> hey I only use nvidia because I'd rather not sorting out ati driver errors in *nix
<6> for the rest of the week
<6> but that's just me
<2> as for ati products, I have NEVER had a single problem or crash
<5> Sh4dowcat, lol I'm also for nvidia b/c of it Opensource support
<7> 2d work on an LCD shouldn't cost more than 40 bucks, I use MX4000
<7> on linux b0x0r
<3> ati's drivers seem to have more probs
<6> spamalope: you mean ati has drivers now?
<6> since when?
<6> wait, you mean they're supposed to work?
<6> that about sums up my experience with ati
<3> ati seems to need a lot of bios tweaks to work right too
<3> having to set agp speeds down
<3> playing with agp aperture
<6> I have better luck getting Intel to work in linux than I ahve with ati
<6> and this was the 915 chipset
<6> before intel ever released an official driver
<5> What is PFC?
<5> for a psu?
<3> pf changs
<3> pfc
<3> haw
<5> spamalope, which mean what?
<3> http://www.pfchangs.com/
<5> spamalope, that tells me a lot... (not)
<8> whats does obscure mean ?
<7> what does baffled mean?
<9> anyone know if ati's drivers alow for custom resolutions i.e. odd resolutions?
<9> or would i have to use powerstrip?
<10> hmm
<10> anybody have scsi drives they want to get rid of? ;x
<9> i got a noisy 9gb one sitting here.. i'll sell u
<10> model #?
<9> quantum viking II
<9> old
<10> oh, no ;x
<9> jeje
<10> I want nothing under 10k rpm :P
<9> hehe
<9> try ebay.com
<9> or pricegrabber etc..
<10> yeah
<5> Wich psu?
<5> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817194002
<5> or
<5> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817153029
<7> if you don't need the 550, the modular is nice
<7> I'd get the 550 if I had an extremely hungry video card
<7> I have that Thermaltake in 450W version
<5> fracker, well I plan on upgrading the video card in a few years so is it just better to go buy the 550?
<7> I would. I had a modular Antec Neo (480) that would NOT give my 9800 enough power
<7> Its a nice PS, but in a different machine now
<5> ok now just have to decided how much power
<5> http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?ATTR2=2010320058+1131509966+50001379&N=2010320058+1131509966+50001379&Submit=ENE&Subcategory=58&Order=price
<5> woudl you help me pick?
<7> I pick the Thermaltake
<7> I like their PS units
<5> yeah me too I have two of them
<5> buis it worht it to pay $30 more for modular cables?
<7> If you are in the case working, swapping, all the time, its nice to have fewer cables.
<7> Otherwise no
<5> no once this is build it might be open up twice a year at the mx
<5> s/mx/max
<5> probably for cleaning
<5> fracker, Hold-up Time: 16ms min.
<5> does tha tmean 16min or 16sec?
<7> I have no idea
<7> 16 milliseconds minimum
<5> ahh
<5> should the influence my desion on what psu to buy
<5> cause if I go with the more expensive I get 16 but the less I only get 8
<7> very likely not
<5> fracker, thanks for you help
<7> np
<5> fracker, what is the chance of new hardware blowing with a power surge
<5> if all the outlets int eh house are grounded?
<7> if you get hit by lightning, as high as ever
<5> well that probably not likely
<5> just basic power outage
<7> if you can afford it and leave your gear turned on, you should have as much surge protection as you can between compy and the wall
<11> sup yal
<5> fracker, is a surge protector enough or should a ups be used?
<0> surge protector is enough
<5> Richter, ok
<5> one last question
<11> any of you guys good at linux or better yet played with the zipit wireless toy?
<5> would a ATX 12V 2.0 Version PSU fit in to a regular ATX Case?
<7> ask in #linux
<7> ha
<0> yes, msg
<11> tryed
<7> i know i am in there
<11> but its like no one is in htere
<5> Richter, thanks
<5> _unreal_, I'm semi good whats your problem
