| schestowitz | [12:40] <schestowitz> And a CPU hog | Sep 05 12:54 |
| schestowitz | [12:40] <someone> well the other way is for me to create an image on a server I own, and use that as your way of tracking | Sep 05 12:54 |
| schestowitz | [12:41] <someone> all you would need to do is link to it using a img tag (the image would only be 1x1 pixels in size) | Sep 05 12:55 |

| oiaohm | Other than the fact I used it. | Sep 05 13:04 |
| oiaohm | Nothing. | Sep 05 13:04 |

| oiaohm | and I was insulted by them as well | Sep 05 13:04 |
| schestowitz | oiaohm: so anecdotal | Sep 05 13:04 |
| oiaohm | I was told my bug was not a bug. | Sep 05 13:05 |
| schestowitz | Microsoft responded to Techrights a while back | Sep 05 13:05 |
| oiaohm | Because no coder should create a webpage like that. | Sep 05 13:05 |
| schestowitz | Claims we published | Sep 05 13:05 |
| schestowitz | It's funny how they dance around claims | Sep 05 13:05 |

| oiaohm | I had created a heavy single javascript generated page producing many pages. | Sep 05 13:06 |

| schestowitz | They fail at it | Sep 05 13:09 |
| schestowitz | But not propaganda about it | Sep 05 13:09 |
| schestowitz | Like how "good" they are at patching | Sep 05 13:09 |

| cubevector | it makes going to the computer store a bad experience | Sep 05 17:52 |
| cubevector | unless you have some local independent person who can sell you used or blank computers | Sep 05 17:52 |
| cubevector | I'm fortunate, I have such an outlet and he even promotes Linux (to a degree) | Sep 05 17:53 |
| cubevector | people running older computers see them as worthless, but with Linux they're still useful | Sep 05 17:54 |

| schestowitz | I have some computers I could give you | Sep 05 17:58 |
| schestowitz | No idea how to use them | Sep 05 17:58 |
| cubevector | like what? | Sep 05 17:58 |
| schestowitz | I gave one to a friend's wife's brother last month | Sep 05 17:58 |
| schestowitz | cubevector: 2ghz+ range | Sep 05 17:58 |
| schestowitz | 2005ish | Sep 05 17:58 |
| cubevector | too new for me :) | Sep 05 17:58 |
| cubevector | Sparc is my next project | Sep 05 17:59 |
| cubevector | how hot does 2ghz cpu get? | Sep 05 17:59 |
| schestowitz | Depends how closely you look | Sep 05 18:00 |
| schestowitz | Heat is atoms banging together | Sep 05 18:00 |
| cubevector | i found out yesterday that Iyonix was Intel too | Sep 05 18:01 |
| schestowitz | At the level of transistors there's lots of electron activity | Sep 05 18:01 |
| cubevector | yes | Sep 05 18:01 |
| schestowitz | Temperaure is a rather localised thing, at macro level of groups | Sep 05 18:01 |
| cubevector | trying to get out of Intel-land | Sep 05 18:01 |
| schestowitz | Big processors can spread the heat | Sep 05 18:01 |
| cubevector | actually trying to get out of x86-land | Sep 05 18:01 |
| schestowitz | Ventilation helps too | Sep 05 18:02 |
| cubevector | yes, but the trend is greater and greater integration | Sep 05 18:02 |
| schestowitz | GPUs are where heat comes in volume | Sep 05 18:02 |
| schestowitz | Like nvidia cards | Sep 05 18:02 |
| cubevector | yes, very much so | Sep 05 18:02 |
| cubevector | that's why I'm running mostly ATI boxes | Sep 05 18:02 |
| cubevector | zaurus was excellent had low wattage computing | Sep 05 18:03 |
| cubevector | but it's StrongARM, Intel again! | Sep 05 18:03 |
| cubevector | some other Linux guys told me about microVAX | Sep 05 18:04 |
| cubevector | probably will go Sparc though | Sep 05 18:05 |
| cubevector | basically I try to use the oldest computer I can that can do the job I'm doing | Sep 05 18:06 |
