[06:23] morning all [06:25] morning [06:25] hi Squirm [06:33] Oh hey Squirm [06:34] hi Trixar_za [06:34] Who was this 'pi' user? [06:34] Morning Kilos [09:26] happy birthday Trixar_za ! [09:26] you're getting old bud [09:26] haha happy birthday Trixar_za [10:56] good morning [10:57] Maaz_: coffee on [10:57] * Maaz_ puts the kettle on [11:01] Coffee's ready for charl! [11:01] Maaz_: thanks [11:01] charl: Okay :-) [12:54] wb Kilos [14:35] ohi ty charl [15:20] hi Kilos [15:23] hey Kilos charl [15:23] hi theblazehen [15:25] charl, how fast is your net? [15:27] hi theblazehen [15:27] at home or at work? [15:27] at home i am on crappy ziggo cable internet [15:28] at work we have gigabit ethernet with fibre link between buildings and 40gbps uplink in addition to a link to the internet exchange across the road [15:28] charl, wherever you can run a cryptocurrency? [15:29] my home internet is this: https://www.ziggo.nl/#producten/alles-in-1/extra [15:29] i don't use cryptocurrency [15:29] kk [15:29] Was hoping you could help stress-test [15:30] currently doing 30 tx/s [15:30] i don't know how that works, cryptocurrency [15:30] isn't it cpu-intensive ? [15:30] only initial sync [15:30] But mining is often done on GPU, but mostly ASIC for bitcoin [15:31] application specific integrated circuit ? [15:31] some special chips they use? [15:31] yeah [15:31] do sha256 really fast [15:31] a friend of mine does it on his mobile phone [15:31] some android stuff, no idea, no interest either really [15:31] just the client I assume? [15:31] ah [15:32] afaik he can mine too [15:32] but he has a gpu cluster at home [15:32] he took a old rack-mounted server thing, big box [15:32] and he stuffed it full of as many gpus as possible [15:32] maybe he has a picture up, lemme check [15:33] ooh nice [15:33] How much cash did he lose past week? [15:33] I'm gonna get gpu soon [15:33] ROI in 3 months [15:35] no idea, haven't spoken to him in the last week [15:35] kk [15:35] oooh it's a mess but look through this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/twobombs/sets/72157626536549115/ [15:35] price dropped really dar [15:36] far* [15:36] his computer is a complete disaster [15:37] i have never seen such a "kloterij" in my life [15:37] he does bitcoin on nvidia cards?! [15:39] i have never seen kabelsalat like that in my life [15:39] my head hurts and my stomach turns when i look at his machine [15:41] lol [15:41] look at that one photo he stuck an extra PSU at his machine with ducktape [15:41] just to power all the gpus [15:42] is that englishman's site back up again? [15:42] that one that got ddosed a few weeks back [15:42] yeah, site is back up [15:42] And beta going good [15:42] what's the url again ? [15:43] emunie.com [15:43] crypto currency that I was talking about now [15:44] ooh it's a java app ... [15:44] that's can't be fast for mining ? [15:44] actually it's fast enough [15:44] calculations it's pretty good but can you access gpus ? [15:45] i am a java developer myself [15:45] this won't run on GPU [15:45] And needs fast DB [15:45] what happened to the claims he's a fraud and his passport photo [15:45] totally different to other cryptos [15:45] Not sure, stopped paying attention to those guys [15:46] hold on if it's not processing-intensive how does it work [15:46] how do you create artificial scarcity [15:47] What do you mean? [15:47] i mean to generate bitboins are difficult [15:47] computationally expensive [15:47] so you can only generate a limited number of them [15:47] The transaction is verified 3 times by different hatchers, then each gets share of tx fee [15:47] that's why they are worth something [15:48] And theen to produce more there is interest and hatchers get paid based on amount of tx verified [15:48] oh it's a whole different model [15:48] not based on a computationally expensive algorithm ? [15:49] nope [15:49] ah ok now i get why it's a java app :) [15:49] why? [15:49] if you don't need gpus etc [15:50] ah, yeah [15:54] hi charl [15:54] hi theblazehen [15:54] why are these apps even written in java? [15:54] hi psydroid [15:54] psydroid, easy dev? [15:54] theblazehen, I guess so, yes [15:55] hi psydroid [15:55] but I don't find it takes me significantly more time to write in c++ [15:55] java is nice for developing web app backends [15:55] there are just way more possibilities to shoot yourself in the foot [15:55] because all the biggest frameworks are written in java [15:56] yes, I understand [15:56] i like writing web app backends in java and web-related stuff [15:57] but for good applications that run directly on the computer, definitely c or python [15:58] yes [16:39] Kilos: what frequency can I use to irritate the neighborhoods dogs? [16:40] lol [16:40] http://www.instructables.com/answers/What-ultrasonic-frequency-actually-hurts-dogs/ [16:42] i havent tried ones to worry dogs but if that works it will affect your dogs too === psydroid1 is now known as psydroid [16:55] I'll try it again next time, for now they are quiet again [16:55] lol [16:56] you undertand frequencies now inetpro ? [16:56] well [16:57] I think it's more the noise levels that scare the animals than anything else [16:57] every different sound is a different frequency [16:57] as is every colour too [16:58] peeps and all animals are sensitive to certain frequencies [16:58] some hurt [16:58] I'm not so sure the PC speaker is accurate [16:58] it should be close [16:59] not sure how fast they can actually vibrate [16:59] i dunno if you get special high definition speakers [17:00] playing with modulate on FM produces some interesting sound variations [17:00] lol ya but fm is high normally\ [17:00] like our radio stations [17:02] could build a house alarm with this thing [17:02] burglar alarm as well [17:02] they sounds/frequencies to affect bugs are beyond our hearing [17:02] lol [17:50] haha inetpro i just mailed telkom and asked if they can put a wifi goodie by this cell tower [17:50] this is the reply [17:50] haha, good luck :-) [17:50] Please note that we will send this to our planning team. Thank you for supporting 8ta [17:50] they will most probably laugh at that [17:51] well lets hope [17:51] there's very lttle hope [17:51] there are lots of businesses in the area so who knows [17:52] you must be joking [17:52] it cost me i email so what can i lose [17:59] 1 [19:56] night all. sleep tight
