<kyak> bitcoin collapse news :) good i didn't invest CPU cycles there
jluis has joined #qi-hardware
<larsc> well you should have, and just sold them all two days ago
<kyak> heh true :)
panda|x201 has joined #qi-hardware
<whitequark> CPU cycles aren't worth anything these days
<whitequark> even GPU cycles aren't really
<whitequark> ASIC cycles, on the other hand ;)
<whitequark> I think this https://products.butterflylabs.com/homepage/1500gh-bitcoin-miner.html was about $30k or so, when they had the price shown
<kyak> what's GH/s?
<kyak> it must be a nice piece of hardware.. I wonder if it finds a use when bitcoin goes down

<kristianpaul> got envy? ;)
<kristianpaul> indeed lovely
<wpwrak> (envy) i wouldn't mind having a high-res 30" screen on my desk :) and tiltable 22" screens would also be sweet
<pcercuei> nice
<kristianpaul> i wouldn't either :)
<larsc> way to much hassel if you ask me, you need to move your head to be able to switch from one screen to the other
<wpwrak> if your vision is good enough, you can just move the eyes ;-)
LunaVorax has joined #qi-hardware
<larsc> maybe use a fisheye lense ;)
<kristianpaul> lol
<kristianpaul> i'll be okay with one wide screen 1920x1080
<larsc> I always wonder how we managed with 640x480
<wpwrak> poorly :)
<kristianpaul> well at my age 640x480 was big until i got teenage :p
<wpwrak> started hacking right in the crib, eh ?
<wpwrak> then, while the first word of other kids is "mama", yours must have been "make" :)
<kristianpaul> well it was at the school (640x480)
<DocScrutinizer05> sudo make me a sandwich
<kristianpaul> no that much wpwrak
<kristianpaul> i got my first home computer at the age of 15 i think
<larsc> mother toungue: C
<larsc> or if you grew up bilingual C and asm ;)
<kristianpaul> i think it was a time i knew all pic16 asm instructions by memory
<DocScrutinizer05> schematics
<kristianpaul> i had to write the code in paper hehe
<DocScrutinizer05> picWHAT? z80
<DocScrutinizer05> well, yeah. pancil and eraser been the ultimate editing tools
<DocScrutinizer05> pencil
<kristianpaul> pic12c508 was first :)
<kristianpaul> then 16f84
<kristianpaul> afaik i just learnt some C back i university, i was caught by visual tools at first (good that i sold all those books already)
<kristianpaul> but i have to learn some gnu when needed to compile the privative drive for my conexant modem back in corelinux :)
<larsc> it was kind of a revelation when somebody handed me a CD with a C compiler on it
<pcercuei> you guys are nerds :)
<kristianpaul> we're humans sr :)
* lekernel remembers his first turbo pascal on floppy disks. that was, oh, so much better than qbasic
<lekernel> and a bit later st20 microcontroller programming with parallel port, UV eraser, DOS command-line assembler, no IDE, etc.
<wpwrak> (turbo pascal, better) or Pascal/Z, on CP/M :)
<DocScrutinizer05> CP/M \o/
<DocScrutinizer05> with its 16 distibuished users aka fs on each disk
<DocScrutinizer05> distinguished even

<wpwrak> DocScrutinizer05: that was great fun in the computer lab. you went to a newbie's machine, typed USER 2 (or whatever), then cleared the screen. when they came back, all their files were gone ;-)
<DocScrutinizer05> and it had a really great editor: wordmaster
<wpwrak> not "ed" ? b#t to display your text :)
rz2k has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
<DocScrutinizer05> nah, wordmaster was already almost WYSIWYG
<viric> I never programmed on CP/M :)
<DocScrutinizer05> at least a fullscreen editor, with a command line with one letter commands that were really powerful
<DocScrutinizer05> forth
<DocScrutinizer05> is what I programmed there. A stripped/augmentted forth dialect for controlling video processor in realtime
<DocScrutinizer05> which been quite awesome in the mid 80s
<DocScrutinizer05> > >The videowall unit ranges from nin eto 256 26-inch monitors, which allow sconstruction of almost every possibl econfiguration. Its maximum visua lscreen area, combined with its minimu mdepth, permit the system to b eaccommodated in even the smalles tof display areas .Visual sources for the Delcom 25 6VideoWall can consist of playbac kfrom videotape or disk recorders, liv ecamera, off-air transmissions, cabl esatellite, or
<DocScrutinizer05> computer graphic outputs .Delcom’s videowall has been used successfull yby retailers in Europe sinc e1984.<<
<DocScrutinizer05> I contributed a little in development of that system
<DocScrutinizer05> actually the lower limit not been nine but one screen, everything else would be nonsense
<DocScrutinizer05> the maximum zoom-in factor however was 8*8 + overscan
<DocScrutinizer05> and the forth snippets got triggered on video frame granularity by video timecode
<DocScrutinizer05> err, maybe the max zoom factor been 16 or even 64, sorry
<DocScrutinizer05> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyapuKlBxAs 4:44 in the background. at 5:00 you can guess it been kinda fake since that wall actually only been 8*8, with "static" blue monitors around that all came from same videocard #65, iirc
<DocScrutinizer05> ooh, maybe not, 5:40 shows proof for the opposite
<kanzure> welcome to youtube.. use #t=284s instead of saying 4:44
<kanzure> so that would be: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyapuKlBxAs#t=284s
<DocScrutinizer05> that doesn't work when you're not enabling javascrip, jave, activex and assrape mode on your browser
<kanzure> i don't think youtube uses activex
<kanzure> or jave. i don't think there's a popular plugin called jave anyway.
<DocScrutinizer05> around 6:30 it looks like I have a point with the 7*7 or 8*8 assumption though
<DocScrutinizer05> I didn't manage that particular project
<DocScrutinizer05> and I'm damn glad I didn't, it's embarrassing ;-P
security is now known as megha
<DocScrutinizer05> :-D
<DocScrutinizer05> found it
<DocScrutinizer05> (the way to create those links, and also a nice total view of the wall)
