| daftykins | dun-dun-dun... another one bites the dust | 11:35 |
|---|---|---|
| daftykins | that's another HDD failure diagnosed on a client's HP all in one machine, did it remotely too so i didn't even have to go anywhere \o/ | 11:36 |
| zxmpi | manufacturer? | 13:05 |
| daftykins | irrelevant | 13:05 |
| zxmpi | ok that was a weird one. could log into pi but it would not accept keyboard input from any terminal | 13:58 |
| zxmpi | i think that's the first reboot caused by a pi problem :-D | 13:59 |
| daftykins | ruh roh | 13:59 |
| zxmpi | i have 1-2 spare pi lying around in case the original model b acts up. looking at a pi 4 9 gb as a desktop replacement but haven't ordered it yet. could strap old pi to it still doing irc and rss :-) | 14:00 |
| zxmpi | that's a lotta pi :-) https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2021/i-built-5000-raspberry-pi-server-yes-its-ridiculous | 17:20 |
| daftykins | wow, terrible numbers | 17:23 |
| zxmpi | i don't think you build it for performance. i think it's to show that you can and no other earthly reason :-) | 17:24 |
| daftykins | hmm i don't enjoy pointless things like that | 17:24 |
| zxmpi | the network and data throughput on pi is meh at best of times. it's cheap, small, lowpowered and near disposable | 17:25 |
| zxmpi | it's the underdog of the computer world and that's why we love the little tykes | 17:26 |
| daftykins | i have seen them! :P | 17:26 |
| daftykins | well and used, no less | 17:26 |
| zxmpi | the number of projects that have started with 'here's a pi someone handed me that they had lying around doing nothing for ages' | 17:27 |
| daftykins | and "they got tired of its' OS killing itself" :D | 17:33 |
