wizardsurf | hi | Oct 13 02:52 |
wizardsurf | I recently read an article on your site about tomboy and gnote | Oct 13 02:52 |
wizardsurf | I'm still missing something about this Mono stuff and why it's so evil | Oct 13 02:53 |
wizardsurf | can anybody explain what is all fuss about? | Oct 13 02:53 |
wizardsurf | KISS please :D | Oct 13 02:53 |
Diablo-D3 | wizardsurf: heres the short version | Oct 13 02:54 |
wizardsurf | Diablo-D3: hi! | Oct 13 02:54 |
Diablo-D3 | microsoft is evil, microsoft pays novell to work on mono, mono is an implementation of .net | Oct 13 02:54 |
Diablo-D3 | microsoft needed a 2nd impl because they couldnt get it standardized if they didnt | Oct 13 02:54 |
Diablo-D3 | code in mono (and presumably most .net impls) is patented | Oct 13 02:54 |
Diablo-D3 | microsoft has given a revokable patent license to novell to smooth this over | Oct 13 02:55 |
Diablo-D3 | note the parts where I said "revokable" and "to novell" | Oct 13 02:55 |
DaemonFC | !google nebraska state senator sues god | Oct 13 02:55 |
DaemonFC | hmmm | Oct 13 02:55 |
DaemonFC | oh, phirce is not here | Oct 13 02:55 |
Diablo-D3 | as opposed to "irrevocable" and "to everyone" | Oct 13 02:55 |
Diablo-D3 | mono is a patent bomb, and an intentional one | Oct 13 02:56 |
wizardsurf | oh i see | Oct 13 02:56 |
Diablo-D3 | microsoft wants to sink linux with it | Oct 13 02:56 |
wizardsurf | ok | Oct 13 02:56 |
Diablo-D3 | there is just a small tiny flaw in their plan | Oct 13 02:56 |
Diablo-D3 | no one actually gives a shit about .net | Oct 13 02:56 |
Diablo-D3 | .net itself was created as something to attack java with | Oct 13 02:56 |
wizardsurf | why developers use mono then? and, most important to me, why someone like Miguel de Icaza work in it then? | Oct 13 02:56 |
Diablo-D3 | developers _dont_ use mono | Oct 13 02:57 |
Diablo-D3 | they're not even using it to port .net apps to linux | Oct 13 02:57 |
wizardsurf | Diablo-D3: but how is then it integrated in applications like TomBoy? | Oct 13 02:57 |
Diablo-D3 | its not | Oct 13 02:57 |
Diablo-D3 | I'm using gnote because its a lot smaller, a lot faster, and a lot more stable | Oct 13 02:58 |
wizardsurf | don't!!?? i'm totally lost know | Oct 13 02:58 |
Diablo-D3 | wizardsurf: well | Oct 13 02:58 |
wizardsurf | yeah I switched to it right now | Oct 13 02:58 |
Diablo-D3 | I said no one is using .net | Oct 13 02:58 |
Diablo-D3 | either on windows or through mono | Oct 13 02:58 |
Diablo-D3 | most programmers who've tried it find it disgusting | Oct 13 02:58 |
DaemonFC | http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2007/09/nebraska-senato/ | Oct 13 02:58 |
Diablo-D3 | most new code in the world is written in java | Oct 13 02:59 |
wizardsurf | Ubuntu is incorporating mono | Oct 13 02:59 |
Diablo-D3 | java killed .net before it even started, imo | Oct 13 02:59 |
Diablo-D3 | wizardsurf: yes and no | Oct 13 02:59 |
Diablo-D3 | they're including a single mono apps in ubuntu-desktop | Oct 13 02:59 |
wizardsurf | yeah, but java requieres a *lot* more resources than other languages, altough it's pretty portable | Oct 13 02:59 |
Diablo-D3 | java requires a lot _less_ than mono does. | Oct 13 02:59 |
Diablo-D3 | java also does a lot more than .net/mono does. | Oct 13 03:00 |
wizardsurf | I think Mr. Shuttelworth isn't a stupid one, i'm sure he knows exactly why he do that | Oct 13 03:00 |
DaemonFC | Mono must really suck if it makes Java look good | Oct 13 03:00 |
wizardsurf | Diablo-D3: mono heavier than Java? lol!! that's weird!! xDD | Oct 13 03:00 |
Diablo-D3 | its true. | Oct 13 03:00 |
wizardsurf | DaemonFC: agree on that! | Oct 13 03:01 |
Diablo-D3 | mono, the install size, is much larger than openjdk6, but does a lot less | Oct 13 03:01 |
DaemonFC | the size on disk doesn't matter | Oct 13 03:01 |
DaemonFC | the memory consumed by an application does matter | Oct 13 03:01 |
wizardsurf | how is worldwide aceptance of mono at this time? what says the community leaders/gurus? | Oct 13 03:01 |
Diablo-D3 | a c# app and a java app that do the same things, the java app will run about twice as fast and use the same or less memory | Oct 13 03:01 |
Diablo-D3 | no ones using it, wizardsurf | Oct 13 03:01 |
DaemonFC | Mono and Java apps tend to both be fairly piggish | Oct 13 03:01 |
Diablo-D3 | no one has written a killer app in it | Oct 13 03:02 |
Diablo-D3 | not even for windows on .net | Oct 13 03:02 |
DaemonFC | I'd call it a draw on just sheer technical merit | Oct 13 03:02 |
Diablo-D3 | and it also has zero penetration in the enterprise community | Oct 13 03:02 |
wizardsurf | Diablo-D3: that's great because once something find it's way to corporate world it's hard to clean | Oct 13 03:03 |
Diablo-D3 | yeah its great for us | Oct 13 03:03 |
Diablo-D3 | its bad for microsoft | Oct 13 03:03 |
wizardsurf | well, thank you guys, i have a better situation about it know | Oct 13 03:03 |
Diablo-D3 | wizardsurf: btw | Oct 13 03:04 |
Diablo-D3 | I spent 6 months trying to deal with c# | Oct 13 03:04 |
Diablo-D3 | syntax wise, its 99% java | Oct 13 03:04 |
wizardsurf | Diablo-D3: you know, i *don't* like m$ but I do still love my old MSX wich mean "Microsoft Super eXtend" lol xD | Oct 13 03:04 |
Diablo-D3 | but the base library is missing lots of stuff java does, and mono is missing a lot .net does | Oct 13 03:04 |
Diablo-D3 | and its all organized badly | Oct 13 03:05 |
Diablo-D3 | and their documentation sucks, and mono depends on ms's docs | Oct 13 03:05 |
Diablo-D3 | after spending a whole entire month coding nothing but c#, I never want to touch it ever again | Oct 13 03:05 |
Diablo-D3 | shortly after I tried java again, after not touching it for a decade | Oct 13 03:06 |
Diablo-D3 | I never want to use another language again | Oct 13 03:06 |
Diablo-D3 | java really is nearly perfect | Oct 13 03:06 |
DaemonFC | bahahaha | Oct 13 03:06 |
DaemonFC | if you have a 12 core 6 ghz CPU and 32 GB RAM | Oct 13 03:06 |
DaemonFC | it may run OK | Oct 13 03:06 |
wizardsurf | Diablo-D3: i think the way is going hardware pretty powerfull these days soon Java hogness will be a thing of the past, not because Java itself will be lighter and cool, but with quadcore processors and lot of ram gigs who will care about it, what you think? | Oct 13 03:06 |
wizardsurf | DaemonFC: hahaha right | Oct 13 03:07 |
Diablo-D3 | wizardsurf: well, look at android | Oct 13 03:07 |
Diablo-D3 | its for cell phones, it uses java | Oct 13 03:07 |
Diablo-D3 | its really really really fast | Oct 13 03:07 |
DaemonFC | I've never seen a system powerful enough to run a nontrivial Java application well | Oct 13 03:07 |
DaemonFC | nowhere near the performance of C or something like that | Oct 13 03:07 |
wizardsurf | nothing is near C when talking about performance | Oct 13 03:07 |
Diablo-D3 | wizardsurf: on real machines though, java is about 1.5 tiems slower than C | Oct 13 03:08 |
DaemonFC | Java is like sacrificing half the performance and using double the RAM so you can be lazy when you go to port it | Oct 13 03:08 |
wizardsurf | C is like coding in plain assembler but better | Oct 13 03:08 |
Diablo-D3 | but java also does a lot more than C, which if you do those things in C (such as constant bounds checking and other sanity checks), C wouldnt be that fast | Oct 13 03:08 |
Diablo-D3 | and DaemonFC is wrong | Oct 13 03:08 |
DaemonFC | a talented C programmer and a good compiler can pump out program code that rivals assembler sometimes | Oct 13 03:08 |
Diablo-D3 | it doesnt take double the ram, nor does it run half as fast | Oct 13 03:08 |
wizardsurf | yeah, of course that's why they meant for precise purpose | Oct 13 03:08 |
DaemonFC | Java just blows | Oct 13 03:08 |
Diablo-D3 | java7 is also faster than 6 | Oct 13 03:09 |
wizardsurf | I like Sun | Oct 13 03:09 |
wizardsurf | those guys are cool | Oct 13 03:09 |
DaemonFC | Java 7, now only 7 times slower than C :) | Oct 13 03:09 |
DaemonFC | hehehe | Oct 13 03:09 |
Diablo-D3 | DaemonFC hates java for no good reason | Oct 13 03:10 |
Diablo-D3 | hes never actually used it | Oct 13 03:10 |
wizardsurf | I'm running a debian based distro right now but I'm anxious about trying upcoming OpenSolaris 2010 | Oct 13 03:10 |
DaemonFC | it's bloated and slow and runs any CPU like a bitch | Oct 13 03:10 |
DaemonFC | best way to make your laptop into a space heater is to load something like Limewire | Oct 13 03:10 |
DaemonFC | or Vuze | Oct 13 03:10 |
wizardsurf | Diablo-D3: i agree with DaemonFC that it's bloated and slow and runs any CPU like a... turtle, but again, if you want to make your app very portable at a minimal effort, well java is very cool then | Oct 13 03:11 |
Diablo-D3 | I'm using java every day, wizardsurf | Oct 13 03:11 |
Diablo-D3 | its extremely fast | Oct 13 03:12 |
wizardsurf | Limewire and Vuze stinks baaadddd | Oct 13 03:12 |
Diablo-D3 | limewire and vuze are not good examples of a java app | Oct 13 03:12 |
Diablo-D3 | in fact, they were written by idiots | Oct 13 03:12 |
Diablo-D3 | _any_ language lets you write bad apps | Oct 13 03:12 |
wizardsurf | Diablo-D3: lol | Oct 13 03:12 |
Diablo-D3 | it is not unique to java | Oct 13 03:12 |
wizardsurf | Diablo-D3: yep, you are right | Oct 13 03:12 |
wizardsurf | so, the whole thing then is trying to avoid mono at all cost | Oct 13 03:13 |
wizardsurf | cool | Oct 13 03:13 |
wizardsurf | one last word guys | Oct 13 03:13 |
wizardsurf | what you think about openSUSE? | Oct 13 03:13 |
wizardsurf | personally i don't like it very much, for a corporate distro i prefer fedora | Oct 13 03:13 |
wizardsurf | but i'm curious about what's your opinion | Oct 13 03:13 |
Diablo-D3 | its one of the worst normal distros out there | Oct 13 03:14 |
Diablo-D3 | and it doesnt help its turned into a vehicle to promote mono | Oct 13 03:14 |
wizardsurf | Diablo-D3: agree on that | Oct 13 03:14 |
Diablo-D3 | I've used debian for almost 15 years, Im not going to stop any time soon | Oct 13 03:14 |
wizardsurf | so is like Stallman says days ago, Icaza is traitor then lol xD | Oct 13 03:14 |
Diablo-D3 | stallman is pretty much right | Oct 13 03:14 |
Diablo-D3 | I dont like how he handled it, but hes right | Oct 13 03:15 |
wizardsurf | debian rules!! but fedora is backed by red hat and red hat rules too :D | Oct 13 03:15 |

DaemonFC | my PC shipped | Oct 13 03:43 |
DaemonFC | tracking suggests it'll be here thursday | Oct 13 03:43 |
cubezzz | people were really brutal in the past: | Oct 13 04:04 |
cubezzz | In 1547, a bill was passed that subjected vagrants to some of the more extreme provisions of the criminal law, namely two years servitude and branding with a "V" as the penalty for the first offense and death for the second. | Oct 13 04:04 |

Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: yes, humanity has been stupid for a very long time | Oct 13 04:09 |
cubezzz | that wikipedia article on "sawing" was even more brutal | Oct 13 04:11 |
cubezzz | I'm glad I wasn't around then | Oct 13 04:11 |
cubezzz | "in the 1970s, the deinstitutionalisation of patients from state psychiatric hospitals was a precipitating factor which seeded the homeless population," | Oct 13 04:12 |
*Xarver has quit ("Leaving.") | Oct 13 04:12 | |
cubezzz | things have obviously improved greatly since the Middle Ages | Oct 13 04:15 |
cubezzz | still room for improvement of course | Oct 13 04:15 |
DaemonFC | my brother likes Ubuntu Karmic better than Mandriva 2009 Spring | Oct 13 04:15 |
DaemonFC | I swapped Mandriva for Ubuntu | Oct 13 04:15 |
DaemonFC | on his system | Oct 13 04:15 |
DaemonFC | also gave him my Geforce 9500 GT out of the busted system I'm junking | Oct 13 04:16 |
cubezzz | I tried Ubuntu once, didn't care for it | Oct 13 04:16 |
DaemonFC | my new system should be here this week | Oct 13 04:16 |
DaemonFC | it should sufficiently spank Windows 7, Ubuntu, anything I throw at it | Oct 13 04:17 |
DaemonFC | it's a powerful system in just about every way | Oct 13 04:17 |
cubezzz | I'm taking a page out of Diablo-D3's book, my next computer will be more energy efficient | Oct 13 04:19 |
cubezzz | plus if it uses less power, the ups will last longer | Oct 13 04:20 |
*Omar87 (n=omar@94.249.82.197) has joined #boycottnovell | Oct 13 04:21 | |
DaemonFC | I'm going to run a Phenom II X4 945 (3 Ghz), 8 GB DDR2 1066 Mhz RAM, a 1 TB 7200 RPM hard disk, and a ATI Radeon HD 4670 with 1 TB GDDR3 on a 300 watt PSU | Oct 13 04:22 |
Omar87 | HI all check this out: http://bit.ly/3HuOtN | Oct 13 04:22 |
DaemonFC | with room to spare | Oct 13 04:22 |
DaemonFC | the whole system will max around 220-230 watts | Oct 13 04:22 |
DaemonFC | people tend to buy PSUs that are way bigger and more wasteful than they need | Oct 13 04:23 |
DaemonFC | it just uses power needlessly | Oct 13 04:23 |
cubezzz | "To comply with the new Energy Star 4.0 standard, a desktop PC must use under 50W in idle mode and 4W when asleep." | Oct 13 04:23 |
DaemonFC | mine is Energy Star 3.0 I think | Oct 13 04:23 |
DaemonFC | I don't really care | Oct 13 04:23 |
DaemonFC | but it's not like I want some system that wastes s much power as it's using either | Oct 13 04:24 |
DaemonFC | great way to double your electric bill | Oct 13 04:24 |
Diablo-D3 | [11:21:36] <DaemonFC> I'm going to run a Phenom II X4 945 (3 Ghz), 8 GB DDR2 1066 Mhz RAM, a 1 TB 7200 RPM hard disk, and a ATI Radeon HD 4670 with 1 TB GDDR3 on a 300 watt PSU | Oct 13 04:24 |
Diablo-D3 | thats not really a problem | Oct 13 04:24 |
Diablo-D3 | well, it depends who's psu | Oct 13 04:24 |
Diablo-D3 | though I'd rather go for a 500w psu | Oct 13 04:25 |
DaemonFC | "I have FELT him, my master" | Oct 13 04:25 |
DaemonFC | hehe | Oct 13 04:25 |
Diablo-D3 | for me, my c2d e8500, a radeon 4850, 8gb of ddr2-1066, and 6 newer 3.5" 7200rpm drives take 350w at peak | Oct 13 04:25 |
DaemonFC | I still remember people in the theater cracking up | Oct 13 04:25 |
cubezzz | for comparison: | Oct 13 04:25 |
cubezzz | "The new Studio Hybrid is not only Dell’s smallest-sized desktop, it’s also its most energy-efficient. The system uses only 1 watt of power when off or in hibernate mode, a frugal 26W while sitting idle, and 44W when the system is fully taxed" | Oct 13 04:25 |
Diablo-D3 | I have a 600w actual psu | Oct 13 04:25 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: A WHOLE WATT? | Oct 13 04:26 |
Diablo-D3 | holy fucking christ, | Oct 13 04:26 |
Diablo-D3 | wtf are they powering with that? | Oct 13 04:26 |
DaemonFC | I wouldn't want to push a 300 watt psu over 250 watts for any length of time | Oct 13 04:26 |
DaemonFC | I should be fine with what I have | Oct 13 04:26 |
Diablo-D3 | DaemonFC: I wouldnt either, which is why I asked who's | Oct 13 04:26 |
Diablo-D3 | pc power lists psus in actual, not peak | Oct 13 04:26 |
Diablo-D3 | so I basically have a 750w peak psu | Oct 13 04:27 |
cubezzz | 44W when fully taxed seemed pretty good | Oct 13 04:27 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: yes and no | Oct 13 04:27 |
DaemonFC | yeah, I remember when there was no such thing as power management | Oct 13 04:27 |
DaemonFC | the system could turn the display off, that was it | Oct 13 04:27 |
Diablo-D3 | it sounds like a dual core atom + ion, cubezzz | Oct 13 04:27 |
DaemonFC | before people started worrying about CPU throttling and crap | Oct 13 04:27 |
Diablo-D3 | DaemonFC: well, it is pretty silly to waste power | Oct 13 04:27 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: you want something thats power efficient and actually runs really fast? | Oct 13 04:28 |
DaemonFC | Diablo-D3, AMD changed power management on Phenom II cause Vista is broken | Oct 13 04:28 |
cubezzz | it doesn't really say what it is, I'll have to look it up | Oct 13 04:28 |
DaemonFC | Vista was running threads on idling cores on Phenom | Oct 13 04:28 |
cubezzz | Diablo-D3, sure | Oct 13 04:28 |
Diablo-D3 | okay, everybody shush why I do my magic | Oct 13 04:28 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: how much ram that thing have? 2gb? | Oct 13 04:28 |
cubezzz | checking... | Oct 13 04:29 |
DaemonFC | Vista actually causes global warming | Oct 13 04:29 |
DaemonFC | what an accomplishment | Oct 13 04:29 |
cubezzz | "Up to 4GB* 667MHz Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM*" | Oct 13 04:30 |
DaemonFC | millions of PCs that can't do per core idling because Vista is busted | Oct 13 04:30 |
Diablo-D3 | HAHAHAH | Oct 13 04:30 |
Diablo-D3 | thats totally an atom | Oct 13 04:30 |
Diablo-D3 | and its not even an ion I bet | Oct 13 04:30 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: so lets try 4gb in my machine | Oct 13 04:31 |
cubezzz | Intel® Core™2 Duo | Oct 13 04:31 |
cubezzz | for cpu | Oct 13 04:31 |
Diablo-D3 | bullshit | Oct 13 04:31 |
Diablo-D3 | 44w on a c2d? | Oct 13 04:31 |
Diablo-D3 | even the slowest ulv cant do that | Oct 13 04:31 |
Diablo-D3 | the slowest mobile ulv, I mean | Oct 13 04:31 |
cubezzz | http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/desktop-studio-hybrid?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&~tab=specstab | Oct 13 04:31 |
cubezzz | maybe the info is wrong | Oct 13 04:32 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: Im going to bang one of these out | Oct 13 04:32 |
Diablo-D3 | for the lulz | Oct 13 04:32 |
Diablo-D3 | to see what the price is | Oct 13 04:32 |
Diablo-D3 | t4300 2.16ghz 800mhz fsb 1mb cache dual core.... | Oct 13 04:33 |
Diablo-D3 | subtract like $50 for vista | Oct 13 04:33 |
Diablo-D3 | 4gb of memory | Oct 13 04:33 |
Diablo-D3 | 320gb drive | Oct 13 04:34 |
DaemonFC | I won't do Intel or Nvidia again | Oct 13 04:35 |
DaemonFC | believe I mentioned this, worth repeating though | Oct 13 04:35 |
Diablo-D3 | uses lolintel chip | Oct 13 04:35 |
cubezzz | I'll check on ebay also | Oct 13 04:36 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: dont | Oct 13 04:36 |
Diablo-D3 | Im trying to make a fair comparison here | Oct 13 04:36 |
cubezzz | ok | Oct 13 04:36 |
Diablo-D3 | $674 | Oct 13 04:36 |
DaemonFC | AMD/ATI are better value on low to mid-high end | Oct 13 04:36 |
Diablo-D3 | DaemonFC: well wait | Oct 13 04:37 |
Diablo-D3 | Im doing my magic here | Oct 13 04:37 |
DaemonFC | this stuff changes all the time, but that's how the playing field is now | Oct 13 04:37 |
DaemonFC | Intel has the absolute highest end but you have to buy their most expensive stuff to get it | Oct 13 04:37 |
DaemonFC | a Core i7, etc. | Oct 13 04:37 |
DaemonFC | not worth paying triple to get a 20% performance boost IMO | Oct 13 04:38 |
DaemonFC | if you want to spend your money on diminishing returns to have bragging rights til it's obsolete in a few months, it's your money | Oct 13 04:38 |
Diablo-D3 | OKAY SO WATCH THIS | Oct 13 04:39 |
Diablo-D3 | you wanna see a computer thats twice the power of that mess? | Oct 13 04:39 |
cubezzz | of course ;0 | Oct 13 04:39 |
Diablo-D3 | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103698 | Oct 13 04:39 |
Diablo-D3 | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130233 | Oct 13 04:39 |
Diablo-D3 | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148262 | Oct 13 04:39 |
Diablo-D3 | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129041 | Oct 13 04:39 |
DaemonFC | stuff advances too fast to try and stay on top | Oct 13 04:40 |
Diablo-D3 | throw in a $60 psu, newegg doesnt have the right pc power model I want for that | Oct 13 04:40 |
Diablo-D3 | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148395 | Oct 13 04:41 |
Diablo-D3 | it can idle at around 25 watts or so and peak at around 75 or so | Oct 13 04:41 |
Diablo-D3 | and is about 2 or 3 times more powerful | Oct 13 04:42 |
cubezzz | well, it's newegg.ca for me but it looks interesting | Oct 13 04:42 |
Diablo-D3 | and Id really wanna swap that cpu out for this | Oct 13 04:43 |
Diablo-D3 | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103688 | Oct 13 04:43 |
Diablo-D3 | which is $20 more | Oct 13 04:43 |
Diablo-D3 | so for $430 vs $674, I win | Oct 13 04:43 |
cubezzz | dell might give free shipping | Oct 13 04:44 |
Diablo-D3 | Ill be generous | Oct 13 04:44 |
Diablo-D3 | add in another $50 | Oct 13 04:44 |
Diablo-D3 | Im still winning | Oct 13 04:44 |
cubezzz | not that I'm advocating Dell :) | Oct 13 04:44 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: so, about 25 watts min power usage, 75-100 max power usage | Oct 13 04:45 |
Diablo-D3 | vs their 25 to 50 | Oct 13 04:45 |
Diablo-D3 | if I throw in $50 for shipping, Im still $150 cheaper | Oct 13 04:45 |
Diablo-D3 | and the dual core machine is about 4-5 times more powerful | Oct 13 04:45 |
Diablo-D3 | so for the actual power of the machine, I'm a shitload more efficient | Oct 13 04:46 |
Diablo-D3 | as usual, I kick ass | Oct 13 04:46 |
cubezzz | would you know the dhrystones for that cpu? | Oct 13 04:46 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: nope, and thats not the large issue | Oct 13 04:46 |
Diablo-D3 | you cant really measure performance that way | Oct 13 04:46 |
Diablo-D3 | for example, look at the memory | Oct 13 04:46 |
Diablo-D3 | single channel ddr2-667 vs dual channel ddr3-1333 | Oct 13 04:47 |
Diablo-D3 | my box has 4 times the memory bandwidth off the bat | Oct 13 04:47 |
cubezzz | yeah it sounds very good | Oct 13 04:47 |
Diablo-D3 | but yeah, for being overall 5+ times more powerful and only using roughly twice the peak watts | Oct 13 04:48 |
Diablo-D3 | and for being around $150 cheaper | Oct 13 04:48 |
Diablo-D3 | I win | Oct 13 04:48 |
cubezzz | maybe you could go solid state and save even more watts | Oct 13 04:51 |
Diablo-D3 | eeeh probably | Oct 13 04:51 |
tessier | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StRqmPHOKEc&NR=1 | Oct 13 04:51 |
tessier | ROFLMAO | Oct 13 04:51 |
Diablo-D3 | but you blow the price out | Oct 13 04:51 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: that, and 500gb on a dumb machine really will last you forever | Oct 13 04:51 |
Diablo-D3 | 256 and 512gb SSDs are so fucking expensive | Oct 13 04:52 |
cubezzz | how much? | Oct 13 04:52 |
Diablo-D3 | enough that it'll make up for that $150 gap | Oct 13 04:52 |
Diablo-D3 | and I dont like putting singular SSDs in | Oct 13 04:52 |
Diablo-D3 | SSD is just not worth it yet | Oct 13 04:52 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: now, if I was trying to fit the entire machine in under 25 watts, then SSD becomes viable | Oct 13 04:53 |
Diablo-D3 | but thats just pissing contest shit | Oct 13 04:53 |
Diablo-D3 | 7200.12s are already very lightweight | Oct 13 04:53 |
cubezzz | less noise :) | Oct 13 04:54 |
cubezzz | you could get a smaller SSD | Oct 13 04:54 |
Diablo-D3 | yeah they're really quiet | Oct 13 04:54 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: btw | Oct 13 04:54 |
Diablo-D3 | look at what case tha tis | Oct 13 04:54 |
Diablo-D3 | its the micro p180 | Oct 13 04:54 |
cubezzz | yes, I saw | Oct 13 04:54 |
Diablo-D3 | I have the full sized one sitting next to me right now | Oct 13 04:54 |
Diablo-D3 | its my case of choice | Oct 13 04:54 |
Diablo-D3 | the fucker is silent no matter what you put in it | Oct 13 04:54 |
Diablo-D3 | now, to be fair, you could put four of those dells in the volume that mini-p180 uses | Oct 13 04:54 |
cubezzz | what I'm wondering though, would the ssd last longer than the hard drive? | Oct 13 04:55 |
Diablo-D3 | but its a size pissing contest | Oct 13 04:55 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: no | Oct 13 04:55 |
Diablo-D3 | they're not SLCs | Oct 13 04:55 |
Diablo-D3 | cheap consumer SSDs are MLCs | Oct 13 04:55 |
Diablo-D3 | they die faster | Oct 13 04:55 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: my current vision of the timeline is like this | Oct 13 04:56 |
Diablo-D3 | 0-5 years from now, normal drives remain awesome | Oct 13 04:56 |
Diablo-D3 | 5-10 years from now, SSDs and normal drives battle it out | Oct 13 04:56 |
Diablo-D3 | after 10 years, SSDs win and normal drives die out over the 10-15 year period. | Oct 13 04:56 |
cubezzz | but not currently? | Oct 13 04:57 |
Diablo-D3 | currently? not even close | Oct 13 04:57 |
Diablo-D3 | if you're using SSDs, you have an absolute need for them | Oct 13 04:57 |
Diablo-D3 | here you dont | Oct 13 04:57 |
Diablo-D3 | SSDs in consumer equipment is largely pissing contest material | Oct 13 04:57 |
cubezzz | what if money is no object? | Oct 13 04:57 |
Diablo-D3 | money is always an object | Oct 13 04:57 |
Diablo-D3 | even I, in my infinite overspending ways only buy exactly whats needed for a task | Oct 13 04:58 |
cubezzz | what I mean is can you buy a longer lasting SSD? | Oct 13 04:58 |
Diablo-D3 | oh, I can | Oct 13 04:58 |
Diablo-D3 | they're just incredibly expensive | Oct 13 04:58 |
Diablo-D3 | lets assume the cheapest quality drive per gb is around 12 cents a GB | Oct 13 04:58 |
Diablo-D3 | I can buy SSDs that are $1.20 a gb. | Oct 13 04:59 |
cubezzz | that's not too bad | Oct 13 04:59 |
cubezzz | 100 gigs = $120 | Oct 13 04:59 |
Diablo-D3 | kind of | Oct 13 04:59 |
Diablo-D3 | I can buy drives that cost more, but they're special | Oct 13 04:59 |
Diablo-D3 | like, SAS/600 or milspec | Oct 13 05:00 |
Diablo-D3 | but thats outside of the realm we're talking here | Oct 13 05:00 |
Diablo-D3 | but yeha | Oct 13 05:00 |
Diablo-D3 | thats quite expensive for that | Oct 13 05:00 |
Diablo-D3 | and remember, they come in 2^x sizes | Oct 13 05:01 |
Diablo-D3 | so that'd be 128gb for whatever | Oct 13 05:01 |
cubezzz | ok, still... not out of the question | Oct 13 05:01 |
Diablo-D3 | yes BUT thats for the best case | Oct 13 05:01 |
Diablo-D3 | both of them go straight up when you put more in a drive | Oct 13 05:01 |
Diablo-D3 | 2TB vs 500gb of the same series of drives, you're going to have a big difference in price per gb | Oct 13 05:02 |
Diablo-D3 | or 512 vs 128 for ssd | Oct 13 05:02 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: the problem is this though | Oct 13 05:02 |
Diablo-D3 | ~500 is where you dont need any more space for a boring computer | Oct 13 05:02 |
Diablo-D3 | 512gb SSDs are too expensive | Oct 13 05:02 |
cubezzz | I could live with 128gb | Oct 13 05:03 |
Diablo-D3 | why are we even talking about this? | Oct 13 05:04 |
cubezzz | I am in the market for a new computer :) | Oct 13 05:04 |
Diablo-D3 | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820139007 | Oct 13 05:04 |
Diablo-D3 | compare. | Oct 13 05:04 |
Diablo-D3 | almost $300 for 128gb | Oct 13 05:05 |
Diablo-D3 | vs $55 for 500. | Oct 13 05:05 |
cubezzz | ok, so it's rather pricey | Oct 13 05:05 |
Diablo-D3 | yes, it is | Oct 13 05:06 |
Diablo-D3 | I thought I made the point earlier, but apparently I didnt | Oct 13 05:06 |
Diablo-D3 | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220341 | Oct 13 05:06 |
Diablo-D3 | thats the cheapest nonshit drive | Oct 13 05:06 |
Diablo-D3 | $125 for 32gb | Oct 13 05:06 |
Diablo-D3 | I could buy two 750gb for that price, give or take | Oct 13 05:06 |
cubezzz | I expected it to be more expensive, but didn't realize it was _that_ much more | Oct 13 05:07 |
cubezzz | more on the order of $3.5 per gig | Oct 13 05:08 |
Diablo-D3 | drives like that arent the sweet spot | Oct 13 05:08 |
Diablo-D3 | hrm | Oct 13 05:10 |
Diablo-D3 | it seems 128 is the sweet spot, at $2.21 per GB | Oct 13 05:10 |
Diablo-D3 | wow, SSD prices have skyrocketed | Oct 13 05:10 |
Diablo-D3 | I wonder why | Oct 13 05:10 |
cubezzz | do you think ssd will completely replace hard drives in the future? | Oct 13 05:11 |
Diablo-D3 | btw, the sweet spot for normal drives is 8 cents per gb | Oct 13 05:13 |
Diablo-D3 | thats on a 1.5gb drive | Oct 13 05:14 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: and yes, I answered that already | Oct 13 05:14 |
Diablo-D3 | 10 years from now | Oct 13 05:14 |
Diablo-D3 | by 15 years from now, no one will sell normal drives anymore | Oct 13 05:14 |
*cubezzz nods | Oct 13 05:14 | |
Diablo-D3 | also, holy shit has storage gotten cheap | Oct 13 05:15 |
*jono (n=jono@ubuntu/member/jono) has joined #boycottnovell | Oct 13 05:17 | |
cubezzz | Data Storage Today also says 10 years | Oct 13 05:18 |
Diablo-D3 | its good that they agree with me then | Oct 13 05:18 |
Diablo-D3 | so lets see here | Oct 13 05:19 |
Diablo-D3 | ssds cost, roughly, 28 times more per gb | Oct 13 05:19 |
Diablo-D3 | and are only 17% as dense | Oct 13 05:20 |
Diablo-D3 | (assuming you fit two 2.5" drives in the space of a 3.5" drive) | Oct 13 05:20 |
Diablo-D3 | thats 5.8 times less dense, btw | Oct 13 05:21 |
Diablo-D3 | so to be worth the expense.... | Oct 13 05:21 |
Diablo-D3 | they'd have to be 162 times faster. | Oct 13 05:22 |
Diablo-D3 | using diablo's bizzaro logic | Oct 13 05:22 |
Diablo-D3 | there are drives that can do that magnitude of operations per second faster than an equivilent normal drive | Oct 13 05:23 |
Diablo-D3 | but its not these | Oct 13 05:23 |
Diablo-D3 | (in this case, its super fast high end enterprise ssds vs a 2.5" 15krpm normal drive) | Oct 13 05:23 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: and this is more than you ever wanted to know about a SSD | Oct 13 05:24 |
cubezzz | well, I think I have a good idea now :) | Oct 13 05:24 |

Omar87 | Guys, I'm thinking of making my own version of Ubuntu with all the Mono junkware removed. | Oct 13 06:14 |
Omar87 | So, it's gonna be like: "All the merits of Ubuntu Karmic Koala, with none of the Mono junkware." | Oct 13 06:15 |
Omar87 | What do you think? | Oct 13 06:15 |
cubezzz | this is just a suggestion but... | Oct 13 06:27 |
cubezzz | gNewSense :) | Oct 13 06:28 |
cubezzz | or if you are very curious LFS | Oct 13 06:28 |
cubezzz | you can remove the bad bits but with gNewSense you are clean from the start | Oct 13 06:30 |
Omar87 | cubezzz, gNewsense is still based on Hardy. | Oct 13 06:31 |
Omar87 | cubezzz, when will the new gNewsense release come out? | Oct 13 06:32 |
cubezzz | don't know | Oct 13 06:48 |
cubezzz | I think the last release 2.3 is pretty recent | Oct 13 06:48 |
cubezzz | again there's always LFS, I'm going to try that next | Oct 13 06:48 |
cubezzz | then just add whatever you want | Oct 13 06:49 |

schestowitz | kwin doesn't like windows higher than about 5000px | Oct 13 10:19 |
MinceR | with or without compositing? | Oct 13 10:28 |
oiaohm | Question with that Vista AIDS edition how is MS paying the money. If its in copies of windows products at full RRP you would have to buy a lot of them to make any difference. | Oct 13 10:31 |
Diablo-D3 | schestowitz: probably 4096 | Oct 13 10:32 |
schestowitz | MinceR: compositing | Oct 13 10:32 |
schestowitz | That's what messed up | Oct 13 10:32 |
Diablo-D3 | and thats probably the maximum texture size on your video card | Oct 13 10:32 |
schestowitz | It got disabled | Oct 13 10:32 |
schestowitz | The translucency bit | Oct 13 10:32 |
schestowitz | In KDE3 with COmpiz I had another curious thing | Oct 13 10:32 |
MinceR | schestowitz: perhaps the texture is too big for your GPU | Oct 13 10:32 |
schestowitz | After overlaying about 22 windows (the magic number) it slowed down a lot | Oct 13 10:32 |
MinceR | it would probably be too big for anyone's GPU, to be fair | Oct 13 10:32 |
schestowitz | It's fine as long as they were not on top of each other | Oct 13 10:33 |
schestowitz | Then CPU usage goes up a lot | Oct 13 10:33 |
schestowitz | Stress testing it might be worth for posting limitations | Oct 13 10:34 |
schestowitz | Ideally, the DE should do something to prevent it | Oct 13 10:34 |
MinceR | indeed | Oct 13 10:34 |
schestowitz | I could refuse to resize | Oct 13 10:34 |
schestowitz | I need to restart X to redo compsite | Oct 13 10:34 |
oiaohm | Issue is no texture splitting. | Oct 13 10:36 |
MinceR | wow, now with vista aids edition you can get both a crap pc _and_ a crap OS together, and pay extra! | Oct 13 10:36 |
oiaohm | So when you hit max texture of video card you run into problems. | Oct 13 10:36 |
oiaohm | MinceR: question is MS really paying the 10 dollars. | Oct 13 10:37 |
MinceR | someone said only a small fraction of the extra tax is really paid to charity | Oct 13 10:37 |
oiaohm | Or are MS using the magic RRP number to do it. | Oct 13 10:37 |
MinceR | what's that? | Oct 13 10:37 |
oiaohm | Recommend Retail Price. | Oct 13 10:38 |
MinceR | my point is that it isn't only vista, it's also dell | Oct 13 10:38 |
MinceR | ic | Oct 13 10:38 |
oiaohm | So every time MS gives a charity a product the claim the full RRP for it. | Oct 13 10:38 |
oiaohm | Off there tax. | Oct 13 10:38 |
oiaohm | So why should we think this AIDS thing is any different. | Oct 13 10:39 |
oiaohm | Note the charities still have to pay handling changes to get the software so its not 100 percent free. | Oct 13 10:39 |
MinceR | the charities get sw, not money? | Oct 13 10:39 |
MinceR | oh, that's what you said | Oct 13 10:39 |
MinceR | so this isn't just a scam | Oct 13 10:40 |
MinceR | this is like a scam made out of smaller scams | Oct 13 10:40 |
oiaohm | Yep MinceR I remember reading the letter from MS to a charity I work with. | Oct 13 10:40 |
oiaohm | Claiming over a 30 000 AUD donation. | Oct 13 10:40 |
MinceR | i should have expected that when m$ talks about "charity" | Oct 13 10:40 |
oiaohm | For discounted software the charity had paid for. | Oct 13 10:40 |
oiaohm | The real serious question is how is MS paying with the AIDS thing. | Oct 13 10:41 |
MinceR | i guess dell (hell) claims "charity" in the same way | Oct 13 10:41 |
oiaohm | Dell giving hardware would be a better pay rate MinceR | Oct 13 10:41 |
MinceR | only slightly | Oct 13 10:42 |
MinceR | dell hardware is crap | Oct 13 10:42 |
oiaohm | Way better. | Oct 13 10:42 |
oiaohm | Remember Windows 7 Pro they give to charity they will be claiming 700 dollars. | Oct 13 10:43 |
oiaohm | Even that the charity has paid for disk production to be correct more than disk production. | Oct 13 10:43 |
oiaohm | Note they claim even more for server version so windows. | Oct 13 10:44 |
MinceR | they call the most expensive version "pro"? | Oct 13 10:45 |
oiaohm | No. | Oct 13 10:45 |
oiaohm | RRP is the price no one in there right mind will pay for the item MinceR | Oct 13 10:45 |
MinceR | no one in their right mind pays for m$ products willingly. | Oct 13 10:45 |
oiaohm | HP harddrives 500 GB 15000 RPM RRP 1500 USD. | Oct 13 10:46 |
MinceR | (only when forced to via tying, government scams, or otherwise) | Oct 13 10:46 |
oiaohm | Yes no one in there right mind pays RRP on anything. | Oct 13 10:46 |
oiaohm | Thinking the same drive normal sales price is about 700 USD> | Oct 13 10:47 |
oiaohm | Ie RRP is basically is at least double a sane sale price. So you can make out you are selling a item at a discount | Oct 13 10:47 |
MinceR | lol | Oct 13 10:47 |
Diablo-D3 | btw, I dont like those 3.5" 15krpm drives | Oct 13 10:47 |
oiaohm | Basically RRP is one of the biggest cons going. | Oct 13 10:49 |
Diablo-D3 | wtf is rrp anyhow? | Oct 13 10:49 |
oiaohm | Recommned Retail Price Diablo-D3 | Oct 13 10:49 |
Diablo-D3 | oh | Oct 13 10:49 |
oiaohm | Yes the maker of the item can set it as anything as well. | Oct 13 10:50 |
oiaohm | Never has to ever sell a item at that price. | Oct 13 10:50 |
mutex_ | thats why its a "recomended" price. | Oct 13 10:50 |
Diablo-D3 | I think you mean msrp | Oct 13 10:50 |
Diablo-D3 | I have never paid msrp in my life | Oct 13 10:51 |
schestowitz | I never bought anything from Microsoft | Oct 13 10:52 |
oiaohm | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suggested_retail_price Same thing Diablo-D3 | Oct 13 10:52 |

cubezzz | wow, I can't say that | Oct 13 10:52 |
cubezzz | "never bought anything from microsoft" | Oct 13 10:52 |
Diablo-D3 | like, my TV downstairs has a $2000 mrsp | Oct 13 10:53 |
Diablo-D3 | I paid $1200 for it | Oct 13 10:53 |
oiaohm | mrsp and rrp is the same thing. | Oct 13 10:53 |
oiaohm | Its also called rsp or list price. | Oct 13 10:53 |
oiaohm | Opps srp | Oct 13 10:53 |
oiaohm | I got it backwards in the middle of msrp. | Oct 13 10:54 |
MinceR | i too have never bought anything from m$ but the winblows tax | Oct 13 10:54 |
cubezzz | I bought QuickC and Assembler :) | Oct 13 10:54 |
cubezzz | it was a long time ago | Oct 13 10:54 |
MinceR | well, also the money our government stole for m$, actually | Oct 13 10:54 |
MinceR | (so they could buy us "free" licenses for m$ crap... twice) | Oct 13 10:54 |
MinceR | (once for campus and once for m$dn) | Oct 13 10:55 |
MinceR | in the end we have no choice, m$ keeps robbing us | Oct 13 10:55 |
cubezzz | oh, they get nothing from me _now_ | Oct 13 10:56 |
cubezzz | I just can't say never | Oct 13 10:56 |
oiaohm | I have always payed the least. | Oct 13 10:56 |
oiaohm | Like 699 for my house load of software many years go. | Oct 13 10:57 |
oiaohm | Ie 10 copies of XP Office 1 copy of server 2003... | Oct 13 10:57 |
oiaohm | Mostly so i could mess with it a bit. | Oct 13 10:57 |

schestowitz | MinceR: all phones get gps data | Oct 13 19:35 |
MinceR | nope | Oct 13 19:35 |
schestowitz | Maybe not collect it permanently | Oct 13 19:35 |
MinceR | not all phones even have gps hw | Oct 13 19:35 |
schestowitz | And also tecos | Oct 13 19:35 |
schestowitz | Mostly telcos | Oct 13 19:35 |
MinceR | and almost none of them actually send them to the manufacturer | Oct 13 19:35 |
schestowitz | MinceR: too bad for those phones :-) | Oct 13 19:35 |
schestowitz | GPS is a trafeoof | Oct 13 19:36 |
MinceR | no, gps is a feature | Oct 13 19:36 |
schestowitz | PLUS, just being on a network gives them your location | Oct 13 19:36 |
schestowitz | They can see what distance apart from antennas you are | Oct 13 19:36 |
MinceR | that's not gps and not as accurate as gps | Oct 13 19:36 |
schestowitz | And don't think it's not being exploted, quietly. | Oct 13 19:36 |

MinceR | if you're using ground infrastructure | Oct 13 19:37 |
MinceR | i had an idea but it's less efficient than current cell phone networks | Oct 13 19:37 |
schestowitz | MinceR: sure, you can't tell what house exactly the person visited, but.... | Oct 13 19:37 |
schestowitz | In post-mortem or people on 'the list' you can approximate based on friends on the person and their addresses | Oct 13 19:38 |
MinceR | (basically, keeping the phone offline and broadcasting incoming call requests via a pager-like system, then the phone owner can decide whether to receive the call. if so, the phone goes online normally.) | Oct 13 19:38 |
schestowitz | Then you also have fabeb0rk to determine who is whose friend | Oct 13 19:38 |
MinceR | another idea would be a peer-to-peer wireless mesh network | Oct 13 19:38 |
schestowitz | Yes, scary, eh? | Oct 13 19:38 |
schestowitz | Same for Internet | Oct 13 19:38 |
schestowitz | No filtering | Oct 13 19:38 |
schestowitz | So they would have no billing ability | Oct 13 19:39 |

schestowitz | For a caveman (I don't want to use age or gender here) it would be deceiving | Oct 13 21:07 |

schestowitz | jono: launchpad is unwelcoming to new bug reports | Oct 13 21:16 |
schestowitz | It redirects to the Ubuntu Web site with instructions | Oct 13 21:16 |
schestowitz | I reckon it's done so by design to keep n00b bug reports out | Oct 13 21:17 |
jono | schestowitz yeah, the reason for this is that most bug reports work like this: | Oct 13 21:19 |
jono | 1. person files bug | Oct 13 21:19 |
jono | 2. triager has to ask reporter to provide bug reporting data | Oct 13 21:19 |
jono | 3. reporter often loses interest and never sends bug reporting data or gets confused at all the confusing commands we ask them to run and attach to the report | Oct 13 21:20 |
jono | 4. we end of up thousands of bug reports which need this debugging data and they clog up the tracker | Oct 13 21:20 |
jono | as such, we now ask people to use ubuntu-bug, a tool which grabs this bug reporting data automatically and files the bug | Oct 13 21:21 |
jono | it just saves the big run-around, gets us better bug reports and unburdens our community of triagers | Oct 13 21:21 |

sebsebseb | schestowitz: meaning? saying bad stuff about the freedom in open source? | Oct 13 21:56 |
schestowitz | jono: in 2006 he said we should meet in radiolug | Oct 13 21:56 |
schestowitz | That was before the Novell/Microsoft deal. I was chatting with Ted a little | Oct 13 21:57 |
jono | right | Oct 13 21:57 |
jono | he is a good guy | Oct 13 21:57 |
schestowitz | He didn't like the deal | Oct 13 21:57 |
schestowitz | sebsebseb: he never likes Stallman and them guys | Oct 13 21:57 |
schestowitz | He told me he spoke to Eben and all, but it's complicated with him and RMS because Matt is very pro-big money | Oct 13 21:58 |
schestowitz | I think Matt was close to working for Microsoft, but I can't recall the details | Oct 13 21:58 |
sebsebseb | schestowitz: Free Software and open source, the terms get confussing, I thought Free Software is more about the moral issues the advantages of the code being available, where as with open source it's more about being a development model | Oct 13 21:59 |
sebsebseb | a good development model above | Oct 13 21:59 |
schestowitz | Could be both | Oct 13 21:59 |
schestowitz | Matt is a *very* smart guy, I hope he doesn't turn against the moral causes of FOSS | Oct 13 21:59 |

schestowitz | sebsebseb: it takes 3 seconds to explain, as RMS puts it | Oct 13 22:00 |
schestowitz | He doesn't, but FS means filesystem | Oct 13 22:01 |
schestowitz | FLOSS means something you stick to take out bacteria and plaque | Oct 13 22:01 |
sebsebseb | yeah that's a point FS means file system | Oct 13 22:01 |
sebsebseb | and FLOSS still says open source, and he wants people to call it free software I thought | Oct 13 22:01 |
