cubezzz | I might have to | Apr 26 04:16 |

Diablo-D3 | so why are you using it? | Apr 26 04:17 |
cubezzz | OK | Apr 26 04:17 |
cubezzz | the reason why is the ISA slots need it | Apr 26 04:17 |
cubezzz | my motherboard has two ISA slots | Apr 26 04:17 |
Diablo-D3 | do you use the ISA slots? | Apr 26 04:18 |

cubezzz | well I can live without it I suppose | Apr 26 04:18 |

Diablo-D3 | every ATX plug Ive seen has had that wire missing | Apr 26 04:19 |
cubezzz | yeah it used to :) | Apr 26 04:19 |
Diablo-D3 | I know its allocated in the spec | Apr 26 04:19 |
cubezzz | my old power supply and the one before that had it | Apr 26 04:19 |
Diablo-D3 | but Ive been repairing computers since before ATX even existed | Apr 26 04:19 |
Diablo-D3 | I dont remember it being connected | Apr 26 04:19 |
cubezzz | let me grab the old one, I think it was a blue wire | Apr 26 04:20 |
*Diablo-D3 only remembers what yellow and black are | Apr 26 04:21 | |
Diablo-D3 | and orange | Apr 26 04:21 |

cubezzz | well that explains why I can't find one | Apr 26 04:24 |
cubezzz | well my modem was ISA, but I never use it | Apr 26 04:30 |
cubezzz | I actually ran the computer on a 200 watt supply for a while | Apr 26 04:31 |
cubezzz | just a used one I had, until I got a new replacement | Apr 26 04:31 |
Diablo-D3 | I have a single ISA board in the house | Apr 26 04:33 |
Diablo-D3 | guess what it is | Apr 26 04:33 |
Diablo-D3 | a modem. | Apr 26 04:33 |
cubezzz | I'm sure I have tons of ISA cards | Apr 26 04:34 |
cubezzz | I was even going to put DSL on a 486 | Apr 26 04:35 |
cubezzz | but I couldn't find a working CDROM ISA controller | Apr 26 04:36 |
cubezzz | ATX GES has -5V btw | Apr 26 04:36 |
cubezzz | I bet that would do the trick | Apr 26 04:37 |
Diablo-D3 | dude | Apr 26 04:37 |
Diablo-D3 | cdroms use ide | Apr 26 04:37 |
Diablo-D3 | just plug it into any standard ide controller | Apr 26 04:38 |
Diablo-D3 | you shouldnt even use a fucking 486 | Apr 26 04:38 |
Diablo-D3 | I can buy a fucking ARM that uses like 1/25th of the power | Apr 26 04:38 |
Diablo-D3 | and has more computational power | Apr 26 04:38 |
Diablo-D3 | like, you know the single core 1ghz cortex A8s? | Apr 26 04:38 |
Diablo-D3 | they're as powerful as a P3 750mhz | Apr 26 04:39 |
cubezzz | I don't know of anything that has that though | Apr 26 04:39 |
cubezzz | there's netwalker | Apr 26 04:39 |
Diablo-D3 | yet, the whole arm soc + ram uses 1/25th the watts of the p3 + mobo + ram | Apr 26 04:39 |
Diablo-D3 | and the arm has real 3D acceleration | Apr 26 04:39 |
Diablo-D3 | the p3 doesnt | Apr 26 04:39 |
Diablo-D3 | throw in more watts if you want that | Apr 26 04:40 |
Diablo-D3 | the mips in my wrt54g is like | Apr 26 04:41 |
Diablo-D3 | slow 486 speed | Apr 26 04:41 |
cubezzz | so what voltage does that cpu use? | Apr 26 04:41 |
Diablo-D3 | modern? 12 | Apr 26 04:42 |
cubezzz | the ARM 1ghz cortex A8 | Apr 26 04:42 |
Diablo-D3 | oh | Apr 26 04:42 |
Diablo-D3 | 3.3 or 1.8 | Apr 26 04:42 |
Diablo-D3 | not sure | Apr 26 04:42 |
Diablo-D3 | and it probably has multiple voltage lines into the soc anyhow | Apr 26 04:42 |
cubezzz | I can power the zaurus off the USB cord | Apr 26 04:42 |
cubezzz | I think that's 5V | Apr 26 04:42 |
Diablo-D3 | it is | Apr 26 04:42 |
Diablo-D3 | but they step it down further | Apr 26 04:42 |
cubezzz | well, if I could find a nice computer that has it, I'll probably buy it | Apr 26 04:43 |
cubezzz | some netbook probably has it | Apr 26 04:44 |
cubezzz | there was that ASUS snapdragon or something | Apr 26 04:45 |

schestowitz | Here's a scenario | Apr 26 10:41 |
Omar87 | schestowitz, Yes, or No. | Apr 26 10:41 |
MinceR | apparently Omar87's method of "proving" something is insisting on that his opponent prove its opposite | Apr 26 10:41 |
schestowitz | Mr. caveman carves a nice biological form with cells and everything or a transitional form | Apr 26 10:42 |

schestowitz | It's not a "yes" or "no" question if you refuse to take "yes" for an answer | Apr 26 10:44 |
schestowitz | My answer is not intended to be insulting, just an explanation of what you would find in a scene of evidence | Apr 26 10:44 |
Omar87 | schestowitz, Life is full of scenarios. You're free to take whatever you want and deny whatever you want. | Apr 26 10:47 |
satipera | freedom is an illusion | Apr 26 10:47 |
Omar87 | schestowitz, I can't think of a specific scenario, though. But regardless. I think there are just enough reasons for some scientists to make people believe in the lie of evolution. | Apr 26 10:48 |

Chips_B_Malroy | Omar87> you could also try Mepis or Kanotix, both are based on Debian. Sidux is too, but its based on Sid repo's, so not as user friendly or stable, but good for more advanced users | Apr 26 20:20 |
Chips_B_Malroy | all three are KDE | Apr 26 20:21 |
Omar87 | Chips_B_Malroy, I see. | Apr 26 20:21 |
Omar87 | I'm also interested in Crunchbang. | Apr 26 20:21 |
Omar87 | It's Ubuntu-based, but it's completely Mono-free. | Apr 26 20:21 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Nothing wrong with Debian, mind you. Its just in the past was harder to setup than distros based on it. | Apr 26 20:22 |
Omar87 | Actually one of the guys at #Crunchbang told me he hates Mono too. | Apr 26 20:22 |
Omar87 | Yeah. Debian is excellent. | Apr 26 20:22 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Should check out Debian myself again, and see what it is like now again | Apr 26 20:22 |

MinceR | :) | Apr 26 20:41 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Quote: "Datel's antitrust lawsuit against Microsoft will continue, now that a US District Court has rejected Microsoft's motion to dismiss the case. In all, five of Datel's six allegations against the Xbox 360 maker will be weighed. The court did dismiss Datel's claim that Microsoft would be blocking the company from competing in the console market, since Datel does not actually manufacture game consoles" | Apr 26 20:42 |
Chips_B_Malroy | they make the memory cards for one thing, that Xbox360 updates killed | Apr 26 20:43 |
Chips_B_Malroy | So MS could rape XBox360 users into buying MS memory cards that cost many times more. | Apr 26 20:44 |
Chips_B_Malroy | "The antitrust case claims that by locking out Datel's Max Memory Card with a firmware update, Microsoft used its status as the platform holder to unlawfully prevent competition." | Apr 26 20:45 |
Chips_B_Malroy | It looks to me that this case is dead. Because Datel only makes addon hardware, not the console itself. | Apr 26 20:45 |
Chips_B_Malroy | But Datel could continue to sue, just to harash MS for destroying their business, and hope for a settlesment | Apr 26 20:46 |
Chips_B_Malroy | *settlement, if only I could spell | Apr 26 20:47 |
