TJ- | Grrr, when is 16GB SSD really a 7GB SSD!? | 11:12 |
BluesKaj | Howdy folks | 13:21 |
daftykins | \o | 13:21 |
TJ- | amazing, 100 PCU cluster running on 16 watts | 14:02 |
TJ- | s/PCU/CPU/ | 14:02 |
EriC^^ | hey TJ- , how's it going? | 14:02 |
TJ- | Good - now I figured out plugging the SSD in firmly doubles its capacity :D | 14:03 |
EriC^^ | nice :D | 14:03 |
TJ- | should try that with the Samsung EVOs :D | 14:04 |
TJ- | did you get your LNB down-converter ... converted into a working model? | 14:04 |
EriC^^ | nope, not yet :D | 14:04 |
TJ- | I'm trying to design a bulk rack mount for 100 of the new RasPi Zero boards | 14:05 |
EriC^^ | cool | 14:06 |
EriC^^ | what will they be used for? | 14:06 |
TJ- | Build farm for ARM packages | 14:06 |
EriC^^ | oh, cool | 14:06 |
daftykins | heya o/ | 14:33 |
daftykins | one of the UK folks was doing something similar, never saw where the project went though | 14:33 |
daftykins | http://regmedia.co.uk/2013/05/20/32_way_raspberry_pi_cluster.jpg | 14:34 |
daftykins | :D | 14:34 |
pauljw | hi all | 14:36 |
daftykins | \o | 14:36 |
pauljw | :) | 14:37 |
TJ- | yeah, But the big Pi takes up a lot of space due to clearance for the connectors, and it's also difficult to create slot-in racks for them. These Zeros should be able to slot into a chassis that has fixed USB micro-power plugs for power and connectivity, only need maybe 10 vias in a mount PCB to pack these Zeros in high-density mode | 14:38 |
daftykins | :> | 14:39 |
TJ- | better than the Ras Pi module in fact | 14:41 |
daftykins | teenager identified :) | 15:50 |
TJ- | OK, I'm shopping for old-style mobo mounted PC speaker/buzzer units on aliexpress (China's eShopping destination for components, etc.) and see a photo of one with a label on top that reads "REMOVE SEAL AFTER WASHING" !! | 15:50 |
daftykins | lmao | 15:50 |
TJ- | http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free-shipping-100pcs-Active-Passive-Buzzer-Alarm-5v-Sounder-speaker-Buzzer/1290577003.html?ws_ab_test=searchweb201556_1_79_78_77_80,searchweb201644_5,searchweb201560_1 | 15:50 |
TJ- | I'm so at a loss I can't move on :D | 15:51 |
TJ- | What DO those people think !? | 15:51 |
daftykins | i still haven't 100% nailed down this little CCTV 4 camera PoE system i put in for some friends, as the software is so badly translated | 15:52 |
daftykins | i know it's capable of being set to motion detected capture, whereas right now it's just recording constantly | 15:52 |
TJ- | Get a translator to help | 15:52 |
TJ- | Probably hire 10 on mechanical turk :) | 15:53 |
daftykins | well i'm not sure it can be switched to the original chinese/whatever to even do that :( | 15:53 |
daftykins | even the UI design is so bad it's illogical to even try fumbling your way through | 15:53 |
daftykins | i'd have to go and spend some time down at my friends art gallery i think to fiddle and test | 15:54 |
TJ- | :) the joys of world trade :) | 15:54 |
daftykins | yip! | 15:54 |
daftykins | very impressive kit though | 15:54 |
TJ- | I've been investigating some PTZ 30x optical HD PoE for here, to keep an eye on far-flung areas | 15:55 |
daftykins | ah har | 15:55 |
daftykins | oh was your weather station blown over the other morning by the by? | 15:55 |
TJ- | it fell off its pole and was hanging in its wires | 15:56 |
daftykins | erk! | 15:56 |
TJ- | alarm was going off around 0330 saying it was -27C outside | 15:57 |
daftykins | surely not o0 | 15:59 |
TJ- | hanging upside-down the rain was getting into the electronics of the transmitter | 15:59 |
pauljw | that's funny except for that whole 0330 thing... :) | 16:00 |
daftykins | XD | 16:00 |
TJ- | pauljw: yeah, it was the night of the storm, so I was resisting going outside but eventually it annoyed me enough | 16:00 |
pauljw | that sucks | 16:00 |
TJ- | my own fault; I should have secured it better | 16:01 |
pauljw | other than that, do you like it? i've been considering picking one up. | 16:02 |
TJ- | it's lasted about 9 years so far, just have to change the 2 AAA batteries every few months, it's about 250 meters out into the fields | 16:03 |
TJ- | the house station is useful and allows USB data collection so good for collecting and analysing weather vs crop yields and so forth | 16:04 |
pauljw | nice, what make and model? | 16:04 |
TJ- | hmmm! you have to ask the hardest question! | 16:05 |
daftykins | XD | 16:05 |
pauljw | lol, sorry | 16:05 |
TJ- | after all this time.. I honestly don't remember! | 16:05 |
pauljw | np | 16:05 |
TJ- | it's not got any model indicator on the unit | 16:05 |
pauljw | i have google | 16:05 |
TJ- | I think it's a rebadged Fine Offset WH1080 | 16:06 |
pauljw | thanks, i'll have a look... :) | 16:06 |
TJ- | there are much better devices, more accurate, nowadays | 16:07 |
TJ- | many are wifi enabled with embedded linux, which makes data collection so much easier | 16:07 |
pauljw | well, it's black friday, now you all know what i'll be doing this afternoon... | 16:08 |
daftykins | i've been shopping for days :( i swear i need someone to block me from amazon | 16:08 |
pauljw | lol | 16:08 |
daftykins | still, a £200 haswell i3 laptop, £33 240GB SSD and a bluray TV set for £60 down from £160 is pretty good :> | 16:09 |
pauljw | that is good! | 16:09 |
TJ- | hmmm... search for "speaker", site does 'related search' "Power Bank" ... it's that Chinglese again, I bet! | 16:10 |
daftykins | http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00S9Q9VS4 <-- still there even, bit of a budget model but worth a glance TJ- :) | 16:11 |
OerHeks | 10 of those in raid, njummie | 16:13 |
TJ- | they're SATA interface so no good for me | 16:14 |
daftykins | haha that could be quite fun actually, 6 ports free on my controller... £180 for 6 ;) | 16:15 |
daftykins | but no! :) | 16:16 |
TJ- | haha! I've flushed out yet another bug in core system tooling where it assumes 'root' = UID, this time in cryptdisks_start | 16:22 |
TJ- | " * LUKS_HDD_BOOT: INSECURE OWNER FOR xxxxxxx.keyfile" => ll -n = "-r-------- 1 0 0 4096 Sep 1 23:57 xxxxxx.keyfile" | 16:24 |
daftykins | am i totally wrong, claiming that this guy wanting to install 32-bit graphics drivers on a 64-bit host is not going to work? o0 | 17:19 |
TJ- | which user? | 17:33 |
daftykins | tilpner | 17:33 |
daftykins | unless said user just wants to work with the libs or something, not actually use the driver *shrug* | 17:34 |
TJ- | Well, if the entire userspace is 32-bit that'll work on a 64-bit kernel, but he won't be mixing 64 and 32 bi userspace X server drivers | 17:35 |
daftykins | ah ok :) ta! | 17:37 |
BluesKaj | my 32 bit vlc version runs smoother on some difficult (read slightly corrupted) mkv wrapped videos than the 64 bit version | 17:47 |
