thafreakAnyone know anything about cpu temperatures?15:05
thafreakI have a 6 core amd phenom constantly peaking above 60c15:05
thafreakand the mb alarm keeps going off...15:06
thafreakis that so hot it will damage the machine, or is it ok15:06
thafreakI just have the stock cooler on there...been thinking I should grab beefier cooler15:06
andygraybeal_i can't help you much but  my shit hangs around 30-3715:19
andygraybeal_imma go get some brunch15:21
thafreakyikes...15:22
thafreakdon't want it to melt....15:23
thafreakguess i need a beastly cooler15:23
thafreakAlso, FYI, I probably said this before, but aria2==badass15:23
thafreakit's like wget on roids15:23
thafreakcan download the same file from a bunch of http/ftp urls at the same time...kind of like a torrent15:24
thafreakand it supports checksumming the final download to make sure it's ok15:24
thafreakoh, and it can also act as a torrent client too15:24
canthus13nice.15:29
thafreakfinally ordered my pelican case, and some protective hard drive cases16:31
paultagdude16:31
paultagthat's awesome16:31
paultagcanthus13: the game16:31
thafreakopted to go with bare hard drives plugged into an external sata->usb thing16:31
paultagthafreak: I want one to build a portable debian hackstation16:31
thafreakha16:32
paultagraspi + externals + wifi router16:32
thafreaki got it for backups16:32
paultaghost a full mirror on there16:32
paultagbuildd nodes, small cluser perhaps16:32
thafreakpelican cases aren't too pricey16:32
paultaginteresting.16:32
thafreaki got a decent size one for $4016:32
paultaghackable?16:32
thafreakdunno...airtight, watertight16:33
thafreakun-crushable16:33
thafreakthe one I got is full of foam cubes that you can arrange to fit whatever16:33
thafreaki'm hoping to fit hard almost 6 bare hard drives...16:34
paultagI would love to make one a hack-in-a-box16:34
thafreakI wonder what the failure rate of bare hard drives is compared to tapes16:34
thafreakpaultag: don't see why you couldn't...if you have sufficient power16:35
paultagare there "glands" I can put wires through and keep it watertight?16:35
thafreakprobably could rig a li-ion laptop battery up to power everything for a while16:36
thafreaknah16:36
thafreakit's all solid16:36
thafreakwhy would you put wires through?16:36
paultagpower strip16:36
thafreakput a decen battery inside, and you're self contained16:36
paultagmmm16:36
thafreakrasppi's are only 5w16:36
paultagtrue16:36
thafreakcould power a bunch for hours off of an old laptop battery16:37
thafreakrig multiple batteries for extra win16:37
thafreakor i'm sure there are specialty battery stores16:38
thafreakactually, I know there are16:38
paultagnot a bad idea16:38
thafreakOR, even just build a battery pack out of lantern batteries16:38
thafreakthose are 6v...but I'm sure there are some instructables16:39
paultagyah, but that gets pricy16:39
thafreaklantern batteries are maybe $916:39
thafreakunless you mean the capacitors and resistors, etc you'd need to step the voltage down16:40
paultagalso a wireless AP16:40
thafreakboom16:45

paultag… swag16:45
thafreakthey powered a headless pi, with a wifi dongle for like 6 hours with that16:45
thafreakit's $60 though16:45
thafreakactually, it seems any of the portable phone re-charging things would work too16:49

thafreakhttp://www.rpiforum.net/forum/tutorials/article/17-how-to-portably-power-your-raspberry-pi-with-a-battery/16:52
thafreakthere...get busy wiring paultag16:53
paultag:)16:53
paultagthafreak: I need to find a way to do some crazy stuff first.16:53
paultage.g. set up a new A record for ftp.us.d.o and make that force use of the raspi mirror when behind the LAN (or use mirror://)16:53
paultagand find a way to give it internet along with the hackinabox16:54
paultag(which involves not doing DHCP when DHCP is running upstream)16:54
