T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: nod, that's always a tough one to handle...want "base" for info, but good to keep track of probably both "what I have" and "best I've seen" T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: I actually have a script that uses ident and lore output which writes to a flat file, that I wrote well before we had invmon T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Very much a shame that wasn't implemented like objstat/objlower :-( T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Aldeas Tech: mind sharing it Abe? Understand if you don't it feels akward asking for someones code T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: and whenever I identify, lore, appraise, bid, rbid or lbid, it puts two lines under the ident output of "Total Stats = 1" and "Total DR = "+1" T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: it's for tinyfugue T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Aldeas Tech: is it still using Regex for matching and all that fun jazz? T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Mush uses PCRE, doesn't tinyfugue use POSIX? T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: tf uses pcre T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Aldeas Tech: I'm regex braindead always takes me forever, thats why I was curious about your script that writes to a flat file T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Use http://regexpal.com/ to help. It's ECMA, but close enough T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: it's pretty simple for that...a bunch of separate regexes for the different fields.../def -F -mregexp -t'^[|] Names : ([^|]+) ([ ]+)[|]' set_item_keywords = /eval /set item_keywords=%%P1...pipe, space, Names, so many spaces, colon, single space, capture anything except pipe, space(s), closing pipe T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: /def -F -mregexp -t'Strength : ([+-][0-9]+)' set_item_stat_str = /eval /set item_stat_str=%%P1 T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Aldeas Tech: hmm, I think I may have been slightly over thinking it T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: capturing each of the stats as a separate unanchored regex of Statname : (numeric) T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: because you won't know if it's the left side or the right side T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: I tried that as a multiline... don't do that :-P Trigger enabling is much, much easier T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: nod, performing the ident, etc. is a "turn this on", and there's a "turn this off" after T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: but really, look at invdetails T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: mine is only using that because the invstuff wasn't going to be created for years T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Does invdetails data increase after you get the identify wish? T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: {weapon}dagger|693|pierce|Pierce|vorpal T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: So no location/resists info then? :-( T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: no, it gives those T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: {resistmod}Acid|100 T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nocilis Tech: i did not know about invdetails, that is nice T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: I was just doing the weapon stuff because some weapon stuff is missing in ident command and lore T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Missing even with wish? T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: no T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: I meant that's why I chose to paste a weapon, which wouldn't have had resists T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: look at invdetails, it's a multiline with different classes of info on different lines, but it's easily parseable T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: without switching to alt, I dunno how complete or incomplete invdetails is without the wish T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: You get area found from invdetails with wish? T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: no T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: there is no spot for that. that's the only thing you don't get which you can possibly get otherwise T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: if doing today, and I cared about area, I'd use invdata/details/mon for all the info and then lore for nothing but area...but for the db, you'd probably want to cross-reference areaname and only save it using area keyword T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: for a database, you'd probably want to include a way to manually add notes such as what MOB you get it from, etc T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: I also have an in-client command to search the iwuvaard eq database :-) T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: ozzy had a nice writeup on doing that for zmud T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: Anyone a linux user? T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Fluffhead Tech: quite a few here, I imagine... T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: Well I was hoping to get some help and advise. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Fluffhead Tech: ...yes, ok? T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: if that's all you're bringing to the helpdesk, probably best to stick with Windows. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Bast Tech: ask your question, your just wasting time at this point T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: NOt sure what linux to get for my computer. Everything I have tried locks up. A distro someone could point me to look at. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Ubuntu is probably the simplest T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Fluffhead Tech: Umm, what kind of comp, specs, what are you trying to use on it... T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Bast Tech: I use opensuse, but ubuntu is a popular distro T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: I think most have issue with my graphics card amd hd 6xxx T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: I had similar issues with my motherboard and video card combo (6950)... T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: did you find a work around? T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: After some headaches about distros locking up, I found that if I got some of the nightly builds of a couple distros it would work. Just needed newer kernels than were in the stable builds. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: Some of the very recent kernels have a whole new kernel module setup for the AMD video cards. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: know what kernel i should look for? T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: Not off the top of my head, unfortunately... I know I grabbed a nightly Gentoo Linux build, but that was only a couple weeks ago. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: Ah. I'm not ready for gentoo just yet. I'll keep searching T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: Thank yoiu T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: But some poking around on that subject may give an answer.. Something with AMD adapters and framebuffer support. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Bast Tech: the latest kernel is 3.7 with 3.8 just around the corner T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: I think other distros that have either nightly or unstable builds may cut it. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: It was somewhere in the 3.7 line, but I'm not sure of the minor revision. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Bast Tech: most distros usually have a repository that has the latest kernel T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: Looks like this was announced in mid-December, so very fresh kernel builds. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: I tried about 4 distros over the last several months and couldn't get any of them to even boot their installers on my machine until I tried that new build. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: I'll keep looking around and seeing what I can figure. I want window gone. Always had a thing for linux T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: That's the spirit! T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: That is the problem I am having Robbo. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: Unfortunately, all that fighting, and I ended up removing it. Support for my 3-monitor eyefinity setup was ... shoddy. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: Sigh. Maybe I'll try again in 6 months :P T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: Linux is getting better and better each year. Slow process. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: I ran Linux at home in various flavors for about 7 years, but switched off about 2007 or 2008 because of hardware support issues on my last machine. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: I'd like to switch back, but my current machine was built as a gaming rig, and seems to have even more issues than the last. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: Maybe I'll build another machine to play on. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Linux is getter better, definitely, but ubuntu is getting worse, I'm thinking about dropping it next install and just go for debian instead. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: Ubuntu's new default WM setup is almost as bad as Windows 8 :P T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: I'm sure it's lovely on tablets... but no. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Yay for Ubuntu Server :-P Touch screen? Pah, got me a terminal T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: I have been seeing that Ubuntu is going down hill. Trying for other distro. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: Amen, brother Vakieh. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: why would you use Linux/nix for a gaming rig? Wouldn't you just have to emulate? T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Well, ubuntu server is debian. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: I was planning on a multi-boot setup for playtime. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: Got extra hard drives just laying around, so why not? :P T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Anyone doing anything with *nix and gaming before steambox is released is silly T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: I am gaming on linux as we speak! T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Mud doesn't count Ranrr :-P T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: I do play a handful of Indie games, many of which have good Linux builds. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: I don't really game much like I used too. If do any gaming its muds now. So I don't need crazy hardware. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: But I also play some games that definitely only run in Win T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: Aard doesn't count. Unless your box is hired out as one of the server's Aard's hosted from. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Well, steam is in beta and from what I have heard seems to work... T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: I was kind of intending to try it out, had my video support worked a little better. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: For now I'll stick with running *nix in a VM, I suppose ;) T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: I just try ubuntu and it just freezes up at loading screen 12.04 and 12.10. Mint got past the loading screen. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: Might try the 13.04 nightlies. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Probably better to go with a stable release with a new kernel T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nunedreek Tech: didn't know of it. I look it up. T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: Well, perhaps, if you can get the installer to boot :P T3/r7/2013-02-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Protogynus Robbo Tech: Most of the distros I tried to run on this hardware I couldn't even get the installers to boot.

T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: what're you trying to do...there are lots of ways to know damage ending, as well as who you're fighting...just to know when you're no longer in combat, look at the change of your position in GMCP (or statmon or option102)...for mobs, you can look at You gain experience or That was a no experience kill, You die, You have been killed, You have been defeated, You retreat from the combat, You flee from combat... T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Polgana Tech: The GMCP doesn't work for a combat with multiple mobs, because I will stay in combat I assume.

T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Twisting FatesDagger Tech: by flee are you refering to player or mob? T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: both T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Polgana Tech: both T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: does it matter? T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Remarto Tech: doesent some of the bast scripts have a mob death counter you may me able to modify?

T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Isn't it easier to check the position? Just check it twice, in case of multiple mobs. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: there's also lasertag and warfare joining, but dunno if they're allowed while in-combat T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: yup, there are stats scripts available for many clients which already cover stuff like this...you don't have to be using that client to make use of looking at their scripts T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Twisting FatesDagger Tech: was asking, if they were looking at specific cases to log them to be honest. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: if you have multiple mobs, I thought the state didn't change because the part of aardcode that changes the state fires multiple times before the part that tells you of the change gets told to you. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: for position, it wouldn't change when the first MOB dies and you go on to fighting the second,although the enemy would T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: unless it's multiples of the same mob, then you couldn't tell. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: yup, it used to spam you with in/out/in/out/in/out when you did something like fire breath in kimr's farm T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Oh. Well, then position seems to be the simpler way to check. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Twisting FatesDagger Tech: if so there are mobprobs that can do the same thing, the nothing in fens can translocate you to specific rooms within the area out of combat. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: now it'll only update position if your position actually changes T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: it's gotta stay changed for more than like a second iirc T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: lots of those kinds of mobprogs, Ranrr. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Polgana Tech: So if I flee a room into another room with agroo mobs, I won't drop my attack flag? I would think that case it would, SO... As long as I'm in combat I'm IN combat, and if I flee a room combat breaks? T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: your state will change, but since the aggros in the other room will immediately attack you might not be told of that change because by then it already changed back. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Polgana Tech: I could monitor the vnum of the current room, that would cover just about everything? T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: only thing that might mess that up would be self-returning exits. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: can't think of any rooms that have those plus attackable mobs, though. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Polgana Tech: Malestrom does, trapped in the torrent. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Polgana Tech: Although it still covers recall and teleport, the only thing it doesn't cover is flee. I'm okay with that I think. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: erm, if you're fleeing you should be getting the vnum too. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Polgana Tech: Shifting gears. Gammon suggests having a pre-installed version of Mush to run under wine. Is there one anywhere? Not one listed on the site. T3/r7/2013-02-03.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: huh?

T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nocilis Tech: you cant really do that wi the android client, it cant make any decisions based off of what the triggered text was, only parrot caputre groups T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vesrai Tech: if you stack the commands with a "kill mob" commands that is botting ans is illegal.

T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: it's illegal only when your kill commands are targetting mobs in different rooms. For example, running to a room and having that stack of movement commands end with a bunch of kill commands targeting all the various mobs you know (or merely hope) are there is perfectly fine. Having it kill all the mobs you know are along the way and then killing all the mobs at the destination...is not okay. T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: neither of those two examples are fine, hans T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: why not the first one?

T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: no, it's agreed exactly the opposite of that, hans T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Xaeris Tech: Hans - where do you see that? T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Book of Etzli Tech: You can stack a room, but you cannot stack kill to run. T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: so, in the interests of completion (since I assume it appears as though I just went quiet to avoid the question), there are a few separate conditions where kill-stacking is legal. First, and which we can discard as irrelevant, is standing in the same room and destroying a reasonable number of mobs contained therein. T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Book of Etzli Tech: Reasonable? You can stack a room of 20 mobs. :p T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: right, you may take out the entire room you're already in regardless of how many MOBs are in it T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nocilis Tech: help command stacking T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Remarto Tech: as long as your not stacking kill commands onto movement T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: you mean a string of movement commands greater than 1? T3/r7/2013-02-04.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Archmage Korridel Tech: Simple rules - 1) Be able to stop fighting if someone asked you for a mob for cp/quest/etc. 2) You should be able to see the room you're entering and what's there to fight. 3) You should never execute a kill command after a run if you end up getting stopped via doors, aggro mobs, or other methods to stop you from reaching your goal.

T3/r7/2013-02-05.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Big Meaty Cheezburger Tech: I doubt the partial second for non-stacked commands, or the potentially few seconds due to stacking will make that much of a difference to the person receiving a tell. Unless they're giving you a timed length to reply, in which case those people are just stupid. T3/r7/2013-02-05.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Big Meaty Cheezburger Tech: Unless you're stacking a whole area, then it'll be longer (which is illegal anyways) T3/r7/2013-02-05.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Yeah, well. So the benefit will not be huge, but a nice convenience. T3/r7/2013-02-05.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Big Meaty Cheezburger Tech: So by your own statement and agreement you've, in a roundabout way, agreed that the time isn't worth the benefit.

For remote logins, super-duper-long keys might be used instead, with minimal hassle. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: Only takes a couple of extra characters to turn an hour-long brute force into a century-long one T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: You still need to remember them. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: If you're at your own computer, and it is safe, then you don't truly need passwords, as keys are simpler to use and more secure. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: I guess I'm not sure what you mean by them being obsolete. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: If you're not at your own computer, or if it is not safe, then passwords can be snooped/keylogged. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Mmm.. Did the point make it across? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Cizra, passwords being obsolete in terms of tech hardly means they will be obsolete in terms of customer adoption rates T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tequila & Zhalt Tech: Well, a password like 80zhaltlikestodancewithahorseintheSunset is very hard for a computer to guess, but I would not have too much problem remembering it T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Zhalt, but this password can be snooped/keylogged at an insecure/foreign computer. And it's uselessly complicated at your own computer, assuming it's secure. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: By "key", you mean something that changes ocassionally, and would be shown to the user by some piece of hardware that's not on the computer? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: It can be arbitrarily long and complex, it matters not at all when keylogging. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Keylogging breaches all forms of password OR key protection T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Leinei, not necessarily. It can remain unchanged for a thousand years if it's long enough and never leaks out. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sonshi Tech: an otp can be used for the most secure stuff... T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: Then what's the difference between a key and a password? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Vakieh, obviously. If you can install keylogger, then you can also copy the keys out. That's why I assume an "own, secure" computer. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Be like saying 'oh, that isn't secure because what if someone held a gun to your head and made you log in' - correct, and we know that, but you need to look at a cost<->benefit scale first T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Leinei, for me, a key is a huge binary blob that nobody would ever remember nor guess. Just too big for that. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Vakieh, could you please elaborate on the similarity? I don't see it. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Cost-benefit scale? Well, having your computer remember your keys for you would be 100% beneficial (easy, automatic). T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: Shrugs, I know my bank account number, credit card number, and security code. That's like 40+ characters. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: A keylogger will breach all appropriately convenient forms of logging in. As will holding a gun to someone's head. It is not appropriate to mitigate against either instance for the ordinary uses we are discussing here. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Want to discuss DoD highest levels of protection, with duress protocols and physical hardware keys, with a mid-network human layer? Then we can talk about when keyloggers should be mitigated :D T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: I don't know my SSH keys. I think the default is 1024 bits for SSH keys, which is equivalent to much more than 128 characters (as they can be any bytes). Much harder to guess anyway. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Most passwords are not encoded in single byte char formats... T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: It's excessively hard to guess. Doesn't take anywhere near that amount of characters to get something that's impossible to brute force. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: I'm not competent to talk about DoD highest levels of whatever, but a keylogger can only be installed on a not-your-own or insecure computer. And in that case, you're kind of fucked anyway. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Who says a keylogger can't be installed on your own PC? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: My point is that a 15 character password with numbers, letters, and symbols is just as secure as a 200 character key. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: I say. It must be a basic assumption. If anyone can install anything in your computer, you're fucked. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: At least, until we get quantum computing T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Leinei, as long as it won't get keylogged. Or stored in an insecure manner on the server you're typing it into. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: But doesn't a key have those same restrictions/assumptions? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Keys never leave the computer, they're only used in calculations. Passwords always leave the computer and you never know who's MitMing you or whatever. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: They can - people make install decisions based on trust all the time - nobody looks through the machine code of every piece of software they install T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: And that isn't to mention piggybacking on installs, Java or w/e is the flavour of the day security windows, etc T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Vakieh, big companies have a reputation to uphold. As do Linux distros. I consider it rather unlikely to get crapware from a reputable Linux distro, or malicious software from Microsoft or Apple. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: You can monitor, and you can be careful, but at the end of the day, ALL systems can be penetrated T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Unfortunately, I must agree )= T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: I'm not saying it would be wilful, but if someone dealing with distribution in M$ or running a github of some populare software decided to attach a keylogger onto the install? Sure, he'd be found out eventually, but in the meantime your passwords, keys, etc are his T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: So, uh, assuming your computer gets compromised, keys will leak out, and passwords have the potential to be sniffed. Not much security left, unless you use some kind of nifty hardware. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Exactly - which is why you have to take a cost-benefit approach T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: there were several cases of poisoning source code T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Trachx, how and by whom? By the distributer of the code? Or by some third party? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: I can mitigate brute force and casual hacking by using a password which is of a certain length, is not my username, is not my DOB, etc - easy, simple stuff for the highest benefit T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: third party, but it really doesn't matter who did it T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Yeah, the damage is the same... T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Popa Tech: There was a minecraft server plugin a few years back that the guy left himself backdoor access into. Gave him root/running user on the server. He never did anything bad with it, but flexed his muscles with it a few times. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: It actually comes down to the same concepts as economics - the amount of effort you put into security should be where the marginal benefit equals the marginal cost. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Vakieh, that's incoming attack. Can you propose a scenario (any scenario, really) where remembered passwords are more secure that stored keys? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: More secure? No. But why would I block myself off from accessing my email when at a friend's house? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: passwords are more secure comparing to non protected keys T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: in case that someone has physical access to storage T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Or if my company needed me to SSH in to fix a something something while out somewhere away from access to my usual work machine? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Oh, that'd be silly, Vakieh. Some sort of non-home login should remain, but it might be made more difficult -- like SMS verification or something. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Trachx, depends on when and how etc. If you happened to follow the conversation, then you noticed hopefully that I assume my computer is secure. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: In this instance there is a marginal benefit to the use of SSH - higher brute force security. But the marginal costs (such as the development of an entire second tier of security) is higher, and it is thus not worth it T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: use of keys, rather T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: As an aside, what you are suggesting is also that when someone robs your house and nabs your computer, they gain free access to all of your PI and bank accounts T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: if your computer is safe that leaves 2 possibilities: MitM and not secure target host, anyway keys are safer in case your computer secure (or just you have secure store) T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: for bank accounts you should choose that ones are protected by RSA tokens T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Hmm, yeah... But this boils down to securing your computer. Hard disk encryption OSLT ought to get standard. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: probably in few years SED (self encrypting) drives will increase they market share T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: The US gov is fighting the use of non-backdoorable drive solutions... T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: even for DES it is still debatable whether is can be decrypted by third party or not (I mean not brute force, but some clever way) T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: You can use almost-whole-disk-encryption rather easily, I think? Something with boot loader being unsecured and the rest is encrypted. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: DES? The one with 56-bit keys, considered insecure for like 30 years already? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: DES is prone to brute force, but when it was chosen to be widely used it was considered quite secure T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Chroseph Tech: that's why 3DES and AES were never invented T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Moore's Law means no encryption with a brute force 'not for xxx timeframe' defence is futureproof T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: yes and no, you cannot use as primary with any non 0 weight weapon T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: mis T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: usually it is enough just to be more secure than others T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: That all depends on whether what you have is better than everyone else T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: I mean that others are easier target in such case T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Well, anyway. You can encrypt your drive, use only software from official repos.. Hmm, is there a screensaver-based auto-HD-lock? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: The Bear Chase defence works for the average home or office PC, but gov and top tier tech don't have that luxury. As their crypto becomes obsolete though, it hits the mainstream market, so that's good T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Bear Chase T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: ?

Mind telling about it? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: Quantum computing is going to come and make all this obsolete :P T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Leinei, are you sure? Consider that the biggest thing quantum computing has done so far is to factorize 15 into 3 times 5. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: And that was a horrendously expensive and time-consuming research project. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: Well, sure. I didn't say it was coming next week T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: for gov security - consider last drone interception by Iran T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: for each lock you can always find good locksmith T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: In November 2011 researchers factorized 143 using 4 qubits.[50] yay, 143 already, not 15. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Oh, Bear Chase is in regards to the joke - A pair of campers are awoken by the sound of a hungry bear snooping outside their tent. One camper panicks, the other puts on his shoes. The panicky camper says 'what, you can't outrun a bear' - the other says 'I don't have to outrun the bear, I just have to outrun you' T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: panicks? sigh... panics T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Heh, cool. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: It is a defence similar to Security through Obscurity T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: Nods, haven't followed it in a while. Last I heard, they had only made a 2 qubit...processing thingy T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Well, 2 bits is not much. I'm not exactly sure how much is 2 qbits, but I'd guess not enough to break anything. So for now, we're better off focusing on the very real problems. By the way, why's Aardwolf limited to 8-character passwords? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Well, I suppose it doesn't matter much as the passwords are transmitted over plaintext anyway... T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Aardwolf's hourlong ban policy would be my guess T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Adds a serious level of downtime over and above any timeframe for brute forcing things T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: a lot of security takes assumption that hardware layer is safe T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: if you have access to switches, routers then you can use sniffer to get passwords / logins for so popular protocols like POP3 T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: To answer your question, probably because it uses DES encryption T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: So if you use numbers, lowercase and uppercase letters in your passwords, you have 218340105584896 different 8-char-long passwords to try... T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: people usually are lazy and use the same password for every account, and usually it is easy password T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Trachx, who uses unencrypted POP3 anyway? Everywhere I've seen, it's behind SSL or TLS or something. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Read the @W last paragraph in help password - 218340105584896 will not be that easy to traverse under such circumstances T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: you mean, when you configure Outlook, Outlook Express which both are widely used, then default is POP3S ? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Yeah, I just did. I'm not saying anything about Aardwolf. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: I have no clue, Trachx. I've never used either. Doesn't it depend on the server anyway, which one it accepts? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: that's right, still POP3 is widely used, and it is more commont for server not to have POP3S than POP3 T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: If the server admin is fool enough to allow unsecured POP3, then the admin might as well be fool enough to leave mail printouts lying around OSLT. T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trachx Tech: 'fool', why does http still exist? there should be only https as it is more secure, right ? T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Er, I don't mind my Slashdot to be unencrypted... T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: It contains very little personal information (only the fact that I'm interested in Slashdotty things). T3/r7/2013-02-20.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: My mail, on the other hand, contains lots of stuff I'd hate to be public. Photos, for instance.

T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: And if that's not an option, have you considered water cooling? Not neccesarily something I'm familiar with, nor would reccomend, but it will likely increase your component selection quite a bit if you're able to buy the cpu/gpu you like, and then replace the cooling with aftermarket water blocks.

T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: there are very large fans that spin slower T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: what is needed is a liquid cooled system where the liquid has variable specific heat capacity T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Also Noegel, fans can be temperture controlled so they speed up/slow down/even turn off as needed T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: vorpes - i don't rule that out, but before I go that route, I want to build something with the quitest stock specs around T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Er, Juic, not noe T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: whatever i just said i think goes against the laws of nature actually T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i guess my nerd in shining armor who can hold my hand through this ain't on. Pity! T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: just waterproof your case and fill it with mineral oil T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: I understand Daloran... but if noise is a concern, and price not, watercooling is the way to go.. unless you're talking about nitrogen lol T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Watercooling won't be quieter then a passively cooled system, Noe. It's just going to allow more options in terms of cpu/gpu. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Twisting FatesDagger Tech: some fan companies spend crazy R&D on fan blade shape, generally it is just a matter of searching thru newegg, tigerdirect, memory express in canada generally have specs for components online. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: i would say this. larger fan moves more air and spins slower so has a lower frequency sound, less fans = less sound, computers are just fairly noisy T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: I guess I turned on this channel in the middle of a chat. I figured no price/low noise... so I was assuming he/she wanted a maximum silent/medium performance computer T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Twisting FatesDagger Tech: problem with liquid cooling is that damn learning curve... a catastrophic failure in a liquid cooled rig generally is *bad* T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: which is why you should use mineral oil T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: different question. My GPU is a 9800 GT from nvidia. The fans spin as if there is a load even if I'm just at a desktop running aard client. Any ideas wth is going on? It's a high frequency and annoying sound. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Nod... Reason I haven't played with it myself - I couldn't afford the potential loss of 1k+ in components T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Twisting FatesDagger Tech: how much does that help in cases of pinched or kinked tubing? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Probably a small diameter fan, juic. So has to spin quickly to move any air T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: replace the fans with ice cubes T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: it is, dalor. but i wonder why it has to spin at all when presumably it's not under load T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mokg Tech: could be extremely dusty, or your case might just be really hot T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: dust can cause this??? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: Pinched tubing is a myth. If you install it right, it won't move. I don't know how often you guys shake your desktops.... T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: well it's an older card maybe it did grow some dust T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Could also be non-temp controlled, or temp sensor borked T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mokg Tech: I just cleaned out my cpu heatsink yesterday because the fan was making excessive noise and it stopped doing it T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: You should be able to manually raise/lower the fan speed via software... but careful of setting it too low to the point it can't dissipate heat T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: Even if it's temp controlled, it could be throttling up due to excess heat from, yep, dust.. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: really mokg?? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Twisting FatesDagger Tech: and how often do a newb get things right the first time? air cooling is a we bit more friendly as long as you plug the fan in you won't let out the blue smoke. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: so where would the culprist dust be sitting? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mokg Tech: yeah, heatsink was caked in dust. had to use compressed air to clean it T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mokg Tech: in the fan area T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: Wow lol T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mokg Tech: fan/heatsink T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: My rig is super old.

If you have an intake fan, clean that as well as the GPU fans. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i take it i just have to wipe the fan blades. how do i clean a heatsink? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mokg Tech: compressed air is the easiest way T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: About the same. I like to get compressed air + vacum, blow from one side, suck from the other T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: LOL Daloran.... I took my filter out for the first time in 6.5 years..

T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: You do T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Just the side panel T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Might be a good idea to hold the fan in place while hitting it with compressed air and such, as well. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i just bought a 144 mhz lcd. will this increase the load on my gpu vs. 60 hz? 1920 resolution each one.

T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: any who has spent hours playing PC games could tell the difference T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Eutychus Tech: I can see the difference between 60hz and 120hz.. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Regardless - it's not not electrical current. Your GPU will only display what it displays - its not like having a higher refresh rate monitor is going to force it to do more work without changing the settings T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: Or between 120 and 600 T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sit like a Trurien Tech: I don't know about 144Hz, but I pretty much only Aard :P T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: not like electrical current, rather T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: Look at high end TVs at your local television shop.

T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i think even the 9800 gt with a dvi link can support the 144 hz T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: It looks unnatural for entirely different reasons then the refresh rate of the display, Noe T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: my Q is if that increases load and might be why my gpu spins as if under load while at desktop + mushclient T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: Can you explain why? I honestly want to know... it freaks me out T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: Most of them look unnatural because of the interpolated field/fake 3D weirdness T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Eutychus Tech: Theres a chance that is true Juic, that card is a tad older.

T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Tldr though, film speed doesn't divide evenly in to refresh rate of displays, so compromises have to be made T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: 144mhz is a multiple of the 24 fps rate T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: vliam -> english please?

How else can I clean the heatsink on this gpu? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: It's been a while, but my understanding of the odd visuals have to do with how the different brands handle the change in that 24fps -> Refresh rate of the display. Sony calls theres Motionflow, don't remember the other trade names T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: heh, and the HFR cinema is still less than a standard 60 Hz frame rate T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: maybe it's just dirty. The pc was in a room where steampipe water flooded, so the anti corrosion additives might have evaporated onto the heatsink. The case is pretty open. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: I'm not sure if any video card will support the 144mhz rate. That's probably the limiting factor. *shrug* T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: some nvidia cards will T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: An open case will always be susceptible to damage. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Also bad for cooling T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: dalor why is an open case bad for cooling? shouldn't it help the heat dissipate better? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: No T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: You need airflow. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: There's no airflow T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Yes, but it dusrupts the well-designed air flow that is part of a good case design T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: basically, it lets the air that the fan just sucked in to go out the side hole before it goes over the hot bits of the computer T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: It's like running a marathon and going into a closet. Compared to running a marathon and going into a strong breeze. Which would you want T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: how can i tell if I've installed a case fan to pull air in vs. push air out? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: put your hand in front of it T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: which side gives you a breeze? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: What he said. Also, often times there are arrows on the shroud T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: nod, there's usually 90 degree arrows, showing blade direction and airflow direction T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: Cant beat the hand method in the end T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: ideally you'd have fans covering both directions, and have the airflow channeled from intake across hot components before exhaust T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: when set up that way, neither fan has to be working as hard, as it's kind of like drafting bicycles T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: the side of my tower has cut outs for two fans. One on top of the other. Should they both be pulling air in, or 1 pulling in 1 pushing out? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: is it more important to pull air in than push air out? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: depends on where they are in relation to the components T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: Often, you'll have an intake mounted to the front. And out flowing fan in the back. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: They should either be pulling air out or both in T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Also, in general you want to have more intake then exhaust... you want your case to be under slight positive pressure if you can T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: you want the one closest to the components to be sucking in, and the one furthest from them to be blowing out T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Quadrapus Tech: You should put them on the same slot, facing each other. They need to fight. The added energy use will make your computer faster. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: If they are doing different things, then it is a failure T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Noegel Tech: If they are doing different things, then it is a failurerp T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mokg Tech: its what I do quad. survival of the fittest. the better component lives, the other dies T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Juic.. if it helps you in anyway... most video cards i've seen intake air from the fan, and exhaust it out the back of the case - so the side intakes tend to blow cold air at the top of the video card, that it will suck from and blow it out the rear T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: this gpu just has a small fan on top of the heat sink. I imagine it's taking in air to blow on the heat sink? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Yes, but if you look at the back of it, where the video ports are - is there vents there? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: weird. just noticed my psu fans aren't spinning. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Usually the heat sink is in a plastic shroud - and the fan is at one end. IT takes the air inside the case, pushes it through the heatsink/shroud, and out the back where those vents are T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: hmm, that could be part of why your vid card is spinning faster T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i was smelling burnt plasticy smell. maybe it's the psu. couldn't tell wtf that was coming from T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Either dead fan, or temp/load controlled fan so its slowed down T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: the psu has two fans... one on each surface.. the back and in the csae. neither are spinning. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: that's probably not good T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: I guess I'll load something and see if they spin. I wonder if this steam/flood screwed everything up. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: sometimes the inside fan is hard to determine whether it's running. The back, though, that should be pretty obvious. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: wow they are dead. crazy. maybe that's why the gpu spins while not under load. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i have a transparent side to the tower, it's not spinning T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: also has an LED inside the psu so i can see quite clearly T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: You may have heat backing up into the case. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: also maybe why I've been smelling burnt plastic T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: yup, the gpu is temp sensing hot, so it's trying to do the work of the psu fan T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: well, yeah. Definitely that. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: not sure where it's coming from though T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: gpu? psu? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: also will it kill me T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: but of course the gpu can't bring in fresh air, so it can't catch up T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i took out the case fans b/c they were too loud, so the gpu really has no active air flow over it T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: I doubt you'll die but you're computer might. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i can't tell if the cpu is spinning more. the gpu drowns it out. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: I'd avoid putting any more strain on it than necessary. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: so, any way to fix this PSU fan??? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: some of them are standard 80mm fans and you can replace them. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: first I'd stick case fans back in T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Twisting FatesDagger Tech: generally PSUs are treated as nonservicable parts due to the shock risks working in them. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: or step up your timeframe for the computer that started this whole thread and don't worry about the one you're using now ;-) T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: so this thing is junked unless i can make up for the lost air flow... is that psu fan blowing into/out of the case (inside the case) for the benefit of the psu or the other components? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: both of them should blow backward. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i'm talking the fan inside the psu T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: psu fan is usually blowing out for the psu's sake...but in either direction, a blow in or a blow out, it'll cause some fresh air to be sucked in because of pressure differential T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: the front psu fan blows from the case into the psu. The rear one blows from the psu to the back of the case. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: how badly do psus need their fans? I mean I really don't my computer to actually catch fire or blow up from a hot psu. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: a case fan should get you running halfway decent T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: it won't catch fire, but a component could fail T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i also don't want to die from breathing in these fumes of whatever smells like plastic T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: yeah. It's unlikely to catch fire unless it's crammed with dust or something. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: one more question T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: tower case. gpu mounts from the back from connectors which are like 6 inches off the ground T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: teh fan faces DOWN T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: there is no fan in the lower back of the case T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: to exhaust T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: that's normal T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: there is a place for a case fan on the side of the case T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: so right now the gpu fan blows air down. When i put this case fan back in, should it blow air out or blow air in? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: the GPU won't know what orientation your PCIe slots are in or where your case has its fans...all it knows is that the ports are in the back and it wants to get the heat away from the GPU T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: the case fan is on the bottom of the side of the case, so a straight line would be perpendicular to the line coming from the gpu fan T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: I'd have it blow in. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: should this case fan blow our or in? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: tbh, either direction would be such an improvement over today, just because fresh air will be getting sucked in (actively if in, passively if out) and warm air will be pushed out (reverse) T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: but then there is a second case fan opening above... whicih would be on the same line as the fan on the mobo (which mounts vertically!) T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: I'd set them both to blow in if you have a large (120mm) fan in the back. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: and i thought both shold blow in or out, so maybe both should blow out, but then there's no real intake T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: if you have case fans for opposite sides ofthe case (front/back, top/bottom or left/right), have them blowing with one in and one out, so they're basically making the airflow always be a pretty straight wind T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: ther eis a fan in the back, not sure how big or which dir it blows T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: if you have case fans on the same side as each other, then they should be blowing the same direction as each other, so they make a "harder" blow/suck T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: these case fans are on the left side, no fans on the right side (the motherboard mounts vertically covers the right side anyway) T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: Is the back fan larger than those side fans? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: ok, so I'd have those blow in, as they're then blowing directly onto the mobo (and somewhere on the mobo is the CPU) T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i have to dig out those side fans. took them out ages ago. let me check. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: but abe the mobo has a fan, which i assume blows out, so wouldn't they be fighting? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: is that rear fan still installed and working? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: yes T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: use your hand to determine whether that's in or out T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: it's likely exhaust T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: the mobo has a fan, or the CPU has a fan which is attached to the mobo by way of CPU socket T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i think it blows out. i feel warm air T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: the mobo has a fan, which would blow right into the top case fan on the side T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mottle Tech: how do you access the help that shows portal command for mushclient pls?

T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: just check my tower. My CPU fan blows down at the heatsink. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mottle Tech: thanks T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: I'd put it over the CPU since that's normally where side mounted fans are pointed. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: really, just mount it in either spot, you'll be in better shape than you are now...you can do some load tests, see how it feels/sounds...flip it around and see if it's better/worse T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: ah, that makes a lot of sense vliam T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: and cover the other hole. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: You nod. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i assumed the cpu mounted fans blew OUT T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: you definitely don't want a hole next to the fan T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: they can go either way T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: but I guess if you have sensible air flow, it should blow in to cool it T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: oh really, either way? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: so i should check T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: put your finger in it. If it cuts you, it's blowing down. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: I mean they can be designed to go either way...CPU heatsink-and-fan module is usually designed to work a particular way, but just a cpu fan that plops on can be different T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: kidding. kinda. Not really. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i can probably cannibalize a fan off another pc T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: if it's blowing up, your finger will hit the trailing edges of the blades. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: I find the best way to test if a fan is blowing a certain direction is to place a tissue on it. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Less blood on your parts that way T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: yeah, that might be safer. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Or, you know, build the pc yourself so you know what's what, and don't get one like my friend did which had 3 case fans all blowing in :-P T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: yeah. That's not right. All of the outflow has to go through the PSU or various cracks. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: That's a bit restrictive. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: good tip on the tissue T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Just make sure there is a guard on the fan, unless you want to be can 'o' airing your pc for your new pile of confetti :-P T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: And as for the 3 fans pointing inwards, the sweatshop worker who built the thing just put in the exhaust fan backwards - just one of HP's dubious 'design choices' in that particular machine T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: so we've got a small intake fan in the front, a vertically on the right of the case blowing air INTO the case, a rear exhaust fan in the back, a PSU fan facing down into the case which is broken, a GPU card mounted horiztonally 6 inches off the group with a fan facing the case floor, not sure which way is blowing T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Sorry, PSU fan pointing INTO the case? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: vertically *mountaed motherboard T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: The GPU fan will be an intake, blowing onto the card T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: vakieh, the psu fan is on the bottom of the unit, inside the case, facing into the case, but is broken T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: not sure which dir that would normally be blowing T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Is it just a fan pulled off a PSU, or is it actually attached to a PSU at this time? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: it's a fan inside the psu T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: replace it if the fan is broken, fire hazard T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: That should have a dedicated vent, it is quite possibly the hottest by volume component you have T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: normally, that inner PSU fan should be blowing up. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: the psu unit has a vent in the back of the case going out, but the only fan i see is the one inside the case, pointing down into the case, which is broken T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Possibly a dumb question, but was the PSU mounted backwards? All the units I've seen should have their exhaust vent lined up with that fan, blowing out T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: vak, i can smell something plasticky burning, any idea which component that would be from? My gpu is spinning as if under load even at just desktop... T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: hmm, I thought that was always the guy's issue and never the chick's T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Why is this unit switched on if you smell burning?!!?! T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: mis T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: because it's a slight smell? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: well, it's not dead yet. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Jhav Tech: ANYTHING burning or melting is extremely bad. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: yes, well if it's the gpu maybe i can fix with a side case fan T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: if it's the psu.. .not sure what to do about a broken fan T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: I have a spare psu on another broken rig. can i just swap it out? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: possibly. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: What voltage? Also, please find what is melting o.0 Preferably when the unit is not live T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: The CPU and GPU should have heat cutoffs, so it probably isn't them... a melting PSU is bad news, of course T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: if it's not a many-years-old rig, it's likely an ATX which can be swapped no prob T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: If it's enough voltage and have the right connectors, swapping should be possible. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Whoops, I said voltage, meant wattage T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Moruul Tech: usually burning smells is the psu T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: yeah, wattage. not paying attention. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: One other possible problem is the physical size of the PSU. Some of the manufacturers use custom sized compact PSUs that don't fit in anything else.

T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: it's the follower of the AT standard of computer power supplies T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: how do i check the wattage? T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Form factor for a mobo, among other things T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: it's a standard. But, it's not exactly standard anymore. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: current power supplies will normally be ATX or mini-ATX T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: okay, i'm shutting down be back on my phone. getting freaked out. T3/r7/2013-02-23.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: tbh I am not overly comfortable recommending you work with electricals at all - is there somebody you can call?

T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: if you want to control the fan speeds, you'll need something mechanical to do it if they aren't connected to the motherboard. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: you can get fans with a speed control or something more advanced like this, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811992007 T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: It's usually called a fan controller or a rheostat T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: a rheostat or petentiometer is essentially just a knob control to increase resistance (and slow down the fan) T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}GreenAcid Tech: does lua have shorthand for i = i+1, i++ does not seem to work T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: apparently, lua doesn't have an increment operator T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: docs say that for loops auto-increment +1 if not specified othewise T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}GreenAcid Tech: hmm will try with a while look T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}GreenAcid Tech: loop* T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: ++ does not exist in Lua.

You're either doing math wrong or perhaps a number you thought was a numeric datatype is really a string datatype and your + is maybe doubling as a concatenation operation. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: i dunno i have checked just about everything T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: What inputs are you giving it?

T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Well. One thing to be aware of is that arithmetic operators give a result of the same type as their operands. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: hrmmm... your dollar function returns bills but you don't seem to be assigning that to anything... T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: bills is assigned in dollars function T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Which, in english, means that (int) + (int) will give you an int. Dividing that by an int (100) will give you an int. Assigning that to a float will discard any fractional part of the result. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: so your saying coerce the int values to float before addition? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: I haven't tried it, but I would. If it's not the problem you're facing now, it's a problem you will face. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: ahh. bills is global T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Either use global variables, or send them as parameters and return values. Also, don't use global variables. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: what Ranrr said. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: And what he said, yes. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: another thing that strikes me right now is my puts("") aren't showing up i just get the insert prompt T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: that's why I missed bills when I scanned the code. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: gotta love a book that tells you to do something and then you find out it is wrong T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: you aren't initializing any of your variables T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: no book would tell you to program like that T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: also your comments are really stupid T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: don't comment a function call with "this is a function call" T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: i think it is dumb too but i have lots points on some assignments already for not commenting everything T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: commenting stupidly should make you lose more points T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Fiendish, a lot of (bad) programming books teach comments like that, for 'clarity' - better to explain why that is bad, and what should be commented instead T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: And a lot of teachers who see those books as gospel teach the same, unfortunately T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: In short, comments should add something to the code, from the perspective of someone who already knows the language T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Xaeris Tech: A comment in any sort of code, should be an explanation of what is going on in the next section of code. That is, it should give you a method of explaining what is going on and that you understand. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: I prefer the linus torvalds way, if you need to comment your code, it needs to be rewritten in a simpler way. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: linus is wrong. vakieh is right. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Linus is a non-profit coder by trade and by habit - his ideas are rarely workable in the real world T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Xaeris Tech: so instead of "this is a function call" you would want to comment "calling function X, to perform action Y" T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: comments should save the next programmer time T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: So, linux and git are not used in the real world? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Not saying his ideas are wrong, they are simply an ideallistic approach which simply cannot function the way most projects are handled T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: BTW, I write comments myself, but I am not as good a coder as linus. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: It is a good thing to strive for, and I think that was the point. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: The pursuit of perfection is the greatest obstacle on the way to good. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: comments are the programmer's way of remembering things that got done months ago. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Well, all code I write can be modified by someone else a few months or years later. Working in a team, where everyone updates all code when needed makes you write better code (and better comments). T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Especially if your co-workers mock you if your code is ugly :D T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: ok had to hand that crap in. now i would like to write it correctly. first off someone told me i can't return more than one value from a function T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: that is true, but you can pass in pointers in C T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: i don't know what pointers are yet T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: then ignore the second part of my answer T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: at any rate... T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: lol T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: Are you not getting a warning for the remove function? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: yup i am. not sure why though T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: your name is overriding a stdio function T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: The Jerk Fiendish chuckles politely. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: you should rename those T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: removecoins or whatever T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: As for the pastebin in question, take a look at the function 'insert'. It has a comment //insert function - anyone who knows C, or really any language at all, knows that before seeing the comment, and it is therefore superfluous. The only thing a programmer should be writing (ideally) is what is required. Instead of //insert function, perhaps try // Adds the given parameters to the pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters variables (please note the function in question is not really a valid way of doing anything, but if it was, that would be the comment I would leave) T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: also the comment should be on the function itself T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: not the call to it every single time T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Oh, is that reproduced? Just looked for headers myself :-P T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: wow my teacher explicitly says 'function remove (int p, int n, int d, int q) will subtract pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters' T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: noted on the comments. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: On a function, I always comment the input, return values and any side effects. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: /me shakes head T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: that's a style issue, mostly. I was taught to leave a comment on both sides of the routine call, the first one (at the calling point) gives a very brief summary and any site-specific explanation on why to call it, the one in the function goes into all the details involved in the function internals. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Hanslanda, you might be thinking dec/def? This is actual calls in client code T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Function internals is what the code is for, not the comment (imho). T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: so no globals (why are globals frowned on), utilitarian commenting, single return value T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: I was referring to comments T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: vorpes: namespace T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: My usual style is to comment public methods in the declaration, private methods in the definition T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: globals are frowned upon because they pollute the namespace T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: two functions can accidentally use the same variable name and then you're sol T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Plus they cause similar non-determinate errors as goto T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: side effects should be avoided if possible T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: ahh that makes sense T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Things get VERY hairy if you start working with exceptional states with global variables - how do you know if the preceding code finished working with the value or not? A lot of unnecessary overhead T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: wow so removing remove cleared up a good part of the problem. (besides the fact i am doing it wrong), now to figure out the return part T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: you can gain insight by "drawing" the connections in your program. Ideally, you want to have just one input point and one output point. If your code gets too spaghetti-fied, the graphics will make it more obvious than flipping through less-meaningful text. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: I admit I am curious as to the returning multiple values... haven't worked in raw C for a while, but afaik that will evaluate the first 3 terms, then return the 4th, and the first 3 are discarded? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Tharnin nods at Vakieh. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: You might need to look into working with a struct 'coins', with coins.dimes, coins.pennies etc T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: ya T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: If you knew pointers, you would use a pointer to a struct. Since you don't, you can stay with globals for now, imho. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: A global struct would be my advice at this point T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: C++ makes this slightly cleaner with reference passing T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: i still need to get the values back from the functions after i add the user input T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: Vorpes: the point of passing in a pointer is that the object it points to exists outside the function's scope T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: so it's aaaaalmost like a global in that sense, but not quite T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: is referable by the function but still inside the main? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: sort of like the girl that gets around to all the guys in the friends group? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: wherever you instantiate the object the pointer points to, whether that is in main or elsewhere T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Returning a struct wouldn't work in C? (I should know better. My excuse is that I've been doing C++ for the past 7 years and haven't done C in too long.) T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: An analogy I like: Bill has a brown cow. He needs the cow dyed black for a party, but only Bob has black dye. He passes the cow to Bob. Bob sprays the cow black, and gives it back to Bill. If Bill had just shown Bob the cow, then Bob's cow would still be brown. What you are doing now is showing Bob the cow, pointers is how you GIVE Bob the cow. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Not as well as pointers, I dig that, but it beats globals if it works, imo. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: you can return a struct T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: he probably hasn't learned structs T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Point. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: also eww object memory copying T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Might this work better if the methods were generalised and called 4 times? What are the requirements? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Tharnin smirks at The Jerk Fiendish's saying. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: nope i know variables. loops, and that is about it T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: And yes, death to the shallow copy :-P T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: just wait until errorchecking... T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: so pointers are just variables with * appended? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Shallow copy of a four int struct vs. globals... I'm not championing the struct thing in general, but BIGGER death to globals. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: not quite T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: nononononono T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Leave them for now :-) They require a little more depth of knowledge as to how the computer works its magic behind the scenes, and they are infamous for being easy to get wrong T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: fair enough T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: a pointer is a special integer whose value is a location in memory T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Aye. I'm derailing, sorry. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: and the difference between a pointer and a variable is the pointer is a specific number at a specific location? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: you can directly change the pointer value, which changes the memory location it points to like moving its finger, or you can follow its finger to the thing it is pointing to that resides at that memory location (called dereferencing) and change that thing T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: the difference between a pointer and another kind of variable is that pointers have a very specific semantic meaning T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: A memory address is where the computer stores data. A variable is something inside (or at) a memory address, and a pointer is a record of a particular memory address. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: A pointer 'points to' a variable T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: that makes a fair bit of sense T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: only it's terribly inaccurate T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: damn it T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: it doesn't point to a variable, it points to an object that may or may not be referenced by any other variable T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: here's how memory and variables work... T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: oh lawd... It's Miller time T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: your computer has a list of regular variables. each of those regular variables are, BEHIND THE SCENES, given translations between the name you named them and the location they are stored. So your variable "dollars" is in memory address 400 or whatever. Pointers are no different than this. If you made a pointer called dollarspointer, it too would behind the scenes be given a translation between its name and the location it is stored. The difference is that value stored at dollars's location could be 5 or whatever dollar amount you want. And the value stored at the dollarspointer's location would be 400. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Fatal FrostBite Tech: Gonna publish that book Fiendish =P T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: The Jerk Fiendish squeals with Delight as Fatal FrostBite Sniggles him! T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: K&R already did. Couple years ago ;p T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Remarto smirks. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: imo statements ->variables->conditionals->loops-> 'In-depth pointers and computer memory' is a silly path to learn. Yes, pointers might be null, or point to 0, and can be referenced as themselves, or dereferenced, and themselves have may be pointed to, etc - but at this point the information would be irrelevant and confusing. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: There goes Fatal FrostBite giggling again, and this time he's looking towards Not an Imm Erikson. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: so the pointer points to the specific location in memory. and you can then assign a variable to start there and reference it via the pointer? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: a variable is essentially the name given to a pointer. The pointer is the "map" to the data, and the data is the real-world info that changes, disappears, gets overwritten, etc T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: the pointer has as its value a location in memory. we differentiate this from other kinds of value storage and call this specifically pointing because the language provides us ways of bouncing over to the other value at the location in memory that the pointer has stored as its value. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: pointers, as learned about in lessons, are kinda like just another variable, except that their data happens to be the memory location. You perhaps learned about scope already, so basically pointers are a way to set a value for a non-local variable directly without having to do a separate assignment of your local variable to your global/public variable declared earlier in the scope tree. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vorpal Vorpes Tech: so what happens if the pointer points to the middle of a value? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: or, perhaps more accurately, not having to return a value. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: in C, there's basically no errorchecking, so you'll just get garbage data as your reference reads past the allotted space. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: or you'll crash T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Even worse, Vakieh, is when you only learn languages like java, and never learn to do memory management and pointers. Every coder needs to know this.

T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: No, garbage collectors exist so you don't have to do the work at the time - you absolutely should know what they are doing T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Once you know what a garbage collector is doing and why, THEN you can black box it and let it work its magic T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Every coder should write his own memory manager at least once, imho.

T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: it's not a giveaway T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Jerk Fiendish Tech: you have to pay $1500 T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Fatal FrostBite Tech: Pocket change :) T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Fiendish, thats "shipping and handling" ? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hanslanda Tech: compared to what they're likely to go for when mass production kicks in, that's probably a huge steal. Well, other than having to write a winner of an essay.

T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: You can stick in a crappy 2nd card to get the 3rd monitor up - processing will be shared T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Shrug. Card can't really drive that many displays with that much power anyway T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: what do you mean processing will be shared T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Nod Ju. depends on what you want it for though.. gaming? Desktop usage? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Meaning the gfx will be processed as a whole, rather than having 2 nice monitors and 1 crappy one based on the cards T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Vak.. it doesn't work that way. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: You will need more wattage than usual to power 2 cards though T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Read what I wrote Daloran, I never said it did :-P T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: pure desktop usage T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: only want gaming on 1 of the monitors T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: You said processing will be shared, meaning its processed as a whole, rather then having 2 nice monitors and 1 crappy one - you didn't just say that? =p T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Right, and it will be. The processing will be done for all 3 monitors by both cards, rather than having each monitor tied to a certain card T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Then yeah, you'll be fine adding another video card, or using onboard, if your motherboard has it and will allow you to use it in conjunction with your dedicated gpu T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: should it just be plug and play? throw a second card in, update drivers, assign third screen to it and voila? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Vakieh.. It doesn't work that way unless you are using crossfire / SLI setups, which are not something you can do with any random pair of cards T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: seems like to share there needs to be a protocol, can't just expect 2 random cards to work well together T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Nod Jui. In Vista/7 its ezpz, in xp its ez. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i shouldn't expect to do anything funky with getting the mobo to recognize this other card? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: pretty much does. Your two cards may have incompatabilities. If you have only 1 pci-ex slot you can't use 2 pci-ex cards, also.. but if you have the slots for it, and the power, its basically just plug and play, install the drivers, and you're golden T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: what if 1 is pci-e and the other is pci? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Shouldn't need to. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: So long as you have a port for the card, you should be good.

T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Well, same way to make sure power for anything else.. tally up the total draw of all the devices in your system, and compare to your PSUs rated output, with a little bit of fudge factor, 20% or so T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: no, 500 base watt T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: its too dark to see in my case, is there a way to see in windows whether i have pci or pci-e slots? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Ahhhh yeah, that'd be a little iffy running 2 cards.. depends on what they are T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Easiest way would be to look up the model number of your PC. or to just pop the cover off the side T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: it's been so long i can't tell if those are pci or pci-e T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: pci are usually white T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: well its either white or yellow or grey T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Ju.. is it different then the slot your video card is it? or the same =p T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: i can't tell T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: but, if you are talking about a video card, you might have an AGP also T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: PCI-e slots usually also have a tab that hangs off the back edge of the slot, pci usually doesn't T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: AGP will have a similar tab too T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: is it better or no difference to run a second monitor via hdmi vs. vga if the primary one is dvi? T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: Not relevant which the first monitor is. HDMI/DVI are your better choices though T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: what's the difference vs. using the vga cable/ports instead of hdmi T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: VGA is analog, HDMI is digital. DVI can be either. HDMI carries sound, the other two do not T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: hdmi is digital. That's the better route for LCD monitors T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: what daloran said T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: DVI and HDMI are actually electrically identical, for digital video, so between the two it doesn't reallym atter T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Juictice Tech: still not sure what makes hdmi better but I'll take your word for it T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: You might leave the DVI for connecting a TV to - so you can just select the output device in software, instead of plugging/replugging.. but thats about the onl benefit to leaving it alone T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: HDMI also has sound, DRM and weird licenses T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: HDMI/DVI no difference. HDMI/VGA .. HDMI is digital. so computer says 1, monitor displays 1. Analog, computer says 1, monitor might interpet that as .997 or 1.003 depending on resistance in the cables, etc T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: with VGA you have to convert from digital to analog and back to digital. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: HDMI supports DRM/wierd licenses. Doesn't require them. And if you mean HDCP, DVI supports that as well. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: unecessary conversion is bad T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: oic T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Daloran Tech: In practice though HDMI(only first because sound) > DVI > VGA, other then that, use whatever you have the inputs/outputs/cables to support. T3/r7/2013-02-24.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vliam Tech: plus, analog is more suseptible to external interference from magnetic fields or other noise.
