I'll chillax with my pups, you can do my job?

[16:36] PING Azelphur ! [16:36] ooo, this my jam :P [16:37] tripleclones: what's your use case? [16:37] I want your monitors, Azelphur [16:37] diddledan_: I sold all the old ones already :P [16:37] nono, the new ones :-p [16:38] hehe [16:38] your setup looks totes amazeballs [16:38] Azelphur, basic - IDE, Remote Desktop, text nothing too intensive [16:39] but would like to play Team Fortress 2 and the like from time to time on one screen [16:39] but certainly not 3D modelling or such like [16:39] tripleclones: I haven't actually tried, but I think AMD is generally a bit nicer for multi monitor than nvidia, however AMD is lower graphics performance [16:40] Azelphur, I saw this [16:40] http://www.ebuyer.com/451860-sapphire-hd-6450-1gb-ddr3-flex-dual-dvi-hdmi-pci-e-graphics-card-11190-12-20g [16:40] yeah IIRC nvidia binary drivers limit the number of outputs you can have active (although they might allow 3?) [16:40] but didn't know if I was being too tight :) [16:40] diddledan_: they allow 3, using it right now. :) [16:40] \o/ [16:40] tripleclones: I have a feeling that although that card has 3 ports, it may not be able to make use of them all at the same time [16:41] it says it can in Eyefinity mode [16:42] Then you should be ok, although as I say never actually done triple head on AMD before [16:42] but I don't know if Eyefinity is going to be OS specific? [16:42] shouldn't matter, it was only about the number of CRTcs on the card, which apparently is 3 [16:43] I don't really get the pount of eyefinity - native support is better IMO because when you maximise a window with eyefinity (based on really old evidence) it uses all screens instead of just the one screen it's on [16:43] point* [16:43] Azelphur, what GPU are you using? [16:43] diddledan_: the goal is to work with games that don't have multi monitor support, tricking them into thinking it's all one big display [16:43] tripleclones: I'm using a GTX 980. [16:43] aah [16:44] I'm not really a gamer - I use gfx and multiple monitors for productivity purposes [16:44] it can drive up to 4 monitors, as can pretty much everything kepler, but I think nvidia may limit it to 3 in software for Linux. [16:44] yeah thats more then I'm willing to spend atm :) [16:44] shame on nvidia though [16:45] the new amd driver system sounds clever - same kernel module for both the closed and open source varients [16:51] so this would be in my budget [16:51] http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/components/amdradeongraphicscards/amdr7370series/r7-370p-2sf5.html [16:51] sounds like the sort of direction I should be looking yeah? [16:56] tripleclones: yea have a go with an AMD card, I guess you can always return it [16:57] tripleclones: just get nvidia, it actually works [16:58] nvidia doesn't limit the amount of outputs you can use with a single card [16:58] they limit the amount of outputs you can use when you have two cards running your monitors [17:23] nvidia \o/ [17:23] except for the GTX 970 debacle, that was immoral [17:42] interesting, an MS employee just stated in a keynote at devintersection conference that "guis on the server are poison" [17:44] diddledan_, MS have been moving that way with the core versions for a little while now [17:44] yeah it's interesting that he's effectively saying that they were wromng [17:44] idea being you have all the gui tools on a client :) [17:45] i think i read you have to install all of it in most cases, configure, then remove [17:45] which is frankly laughable [17:47] we have some at work, I dont know how they were installed but if I want to make changes to DNS for example I have to access a Remote Desktop with the DNS GUI tool and use that [17:48] I'm told I can do it through powershell but no one can tell me how :) [17:48] https://twitter.com/MrASingh/status/657884094831960064 [17:48] and I'm not wasting any time learning [17:52] why do you consider it a waste? [17:56] because I'm not meant to get involved with our windows environment at all [17:57] and I would just end getting involved in lots of things I shouldn't === alan_g is now known as alan_g|EOD === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte === kittens is now known as Guest67115 [21:23] I suppose these days if you're a startup you've got two choices: 1) get acquired. 2) get so big so quick that none of the big boys can afford you [21:23] seems pretty much every company goes for option 1 [22:39] *sigh* apple have made the most money in corporate history [22:39] (in one year) [22:39] i was going to say what about the catholic church :-P [22:40] do you find it amusing that Apple's software for Windows (iTunes and Quicktime) are now the reasons for the most exploited Windows PCs in the US? :D [22:40] replacing Java [22:40] oh dear. lol [22:40] AND adobe?? wow [22:40] ikr [22:40] it's almost cunning planning [22:41] i really do wish i could travel back in time and invest in Apple :< [22:41] just means it will be a longer fall to my mind [22:42] it's nearly 250billion this year and ~50b profit [22:42] that's an awful lot of money to wade through till you run out [22:43] a lot will be wasted on accountants :-) [22:43] and lawyers trying to prove it's not money [22:43] if they pocket it they will prolly be able to coast for some time [22:45] i gona sleep. god bless poland [22:45] o_O [22:45] there's been no sign of that so far...

[23:14] oh, i just set my quit message to that [23:14] couldn't think of anything better [23:14] * popey will change it [23:14] :) [23:14] fixed [23:15] yaaay [23:15] it was amusing because i think me and the fellow volunteers were slating Apple again over in -discuss and off you popped :> [23:15] which reminds me, we should rescue shauno! [23:16] zmoylan-pi: you speak Irish! ;) [23:16] does "bundle into a car boot with a bag over his head" count as "rescue"? [23:16] yep [23:17] i can make a few phone calls... :-) [23:18] :D [23:19] i never understood that one [23:19] it's from "Look Around You" right?
