[20:16]<gglvugg__>heh - i just pimped my grill
[20:16]<gglvugg__>no everything cooks twice as fast
[20:16]<kyddja>How?
[20:17]<kyddja>That's weird... Beasty actually kept his IP, while Servy grabbed a new one.
[20:18]<gglvugg__>i exchanged the 3kPa gas pressure regulator with a 5kPa one
[20:20]<gglvugg__>who are Beasty and Servy?
[20:24]<kyddja>My servers!
[20:24]<kyddja>I still haven't named my Wintel livestation...
[20:24]<kyddja>Perhaps Lamy...
[20:24]<kyddja>(Lamey?)
[20:25]<kyddja>They... they're all I have. :(
[20:26]<gglvugg__>heh. i still dont have a namingconvention for my servers :(
[20:27]<svjzc>nor i
[20:27]<svjzc>i just called mine 'debsrv'
[20:27]<gglvugg__>i once thought of asterix characters - asterisk, obelix, idefix etc.
[20:27]<svjzc>i only have the one server anyway :( :(
[20:27]<gglvugg__>roman/greek gods are also candidates ;)
[20:30]<kyddja>debsrv? :S
[20:33]<svjgnpysx>My Smoothwall box is named Cannabis. It's a gateway.... :)
[20:34]<kyddja>:O
[20:34]<svjgnpysx>get it? :)
[20:34]<kyddja>I want my own Mainframey.
[20:34]<kyddja>Hmm...
[20:35]<kyddja>Maybe.
[20:35]<svjgnpysx>Gateway drug...
[20:35]<kyddja>:S :)
[20:52]<kyddja>Anyone wanna trade MP3s?
[20:54]<kyddja>Huh? :S
[20:56]<gglvugg__>KimmoA - the MPAA has you :P
[20:57]<kyddja>Nope.
[21:16]<_2zzv_>I dont want to start a war here, anyone can say something on price/performance comparison of pentium D vs AMD X2 ?
[21:19]<kyddja>Now you've done it.
[21:19]<_2zzv_>uh oh
[21:20]<kyddja>I don't know, really.
[21:20]<kyddja>I don't have any idea what Intel has made past Pentium 4.
[21:20]<kyddja>And AMD continue with their obscure model names...
[21:20]<kyddja>I think I would favor AMD still...
[21:20]<kyddja>If this isn't a server.
[21:20]<_2zzv_>not to mention obscure speed numbers
[21:21]<_2zzv_>yeah but AMD X2 seems double the price of Pentium D's
[21:21]<kyddja>:|
[21:21]<svjgg_2jg>i recently bought some new RAM that just will not work, and I am not sure why.
[21:21]<kyddja>It's broke?
[21:21]<svjgg_2jg>heh, maybe.
[21:21]<kyddja>Or incompatible?
[21:22]<svjgg_2jg>yea maybe? check it out.
[21:22]<svjgg_2jg>here is what I bought: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16820145310
[21:22]<_2zzv_>recently means return to shop ASAP ?
[21:22]<svjgg_2jg>and here is what i already have running: http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=80098-21
[21:22]<svjgg_2jg>i thought they were almost identical so i figured they would work
[21:23]<svjgg_2jg>well i might RMA or Refund, but i wanted to make sure i wansnt doing something wrong first.
[21:23]<kyddja>I hate sending shit back.
[21:23]<kyddja>I hate broken shit.
[21:24]<svjgg_2jg>i dont want to RMA if it is incompatible, ya know?
[21:24]<_2zzv_>usually my shit is broken cause I make long turds
[21:24]<kyddja>And then they charge you because it's not really broke...
[21:44]<d9vn_g>my 2nd hard disk has DMA enabled but for some reason the current transfer mode is PIO..?
[21:46]<d9vn_g>DMA worked on another system
[21:54]<-- dvxn|syzzzyus xzs>http://www.bagdadsoftware.de")
[22:09]<trssyud>Anyone have a good reputable online seller for cooling units and/or enclosed server cabinets?
[22:09]<trssyud>I'm supposed to price them out for my employers, but I've never had to shop for these before.
[22:15]<kyddja>I can't remember the name...
[22:15]<kyddja>But I think they had that.
[22:20]<pfd2rac>uhh
[22:21]<pfd2rac>stone left damn
[22:30]<gglvugg__>hm there was this one watercooled 19" rack...
[22:45]<kyddja>Neptune__: ?! :O
[23:01]<gglvugg__>+KimmoA - http://www.knuerr.com/web/en/products/miracel/cooltherm/cooltherm.html
[23:01]<gglvugg__>+water cooled server rack ;)
[23:01]<kyddja>+:O
[23:01]<kyddja>+Hmm...
[23:01]<kyddja>+For harmonic data centers?
[23:03]<gglvugg__>+you can build more dense systems if you watercool
[23:05]<kyddja>+Dense ones?
[23:07]<gglvugg__>+you know - more servers per space
[23:08]<kyddja>+Hrmz0r.
[23:08]<kyddja>+I don't get it.
[23:09]<gglvugg__>+you got too much coffee in you :P
[23:10]<kyddja>+Coca Cola :S
[23:10]<gglvugg__>+rephrase: you got too much caffeine in your bloodstream
[23:11]<kyddja>+:(
[23:12]<kyddja>+They use all the space they've got as it is.
[23:12]<kyddja>+I don't see why watercooling would do to change that...
[23:13]<gglvugg__>+watercooling equipment of the same size can get rid of more heat than a air A/C-unit
[23:13]<gglvugg__>+so you can pack more stuff in the server room because you save space in the cooling dept.
[23:13]<kyddja>+:S
[23:13]<kyddja>+Baaaaah.
[23:13]<kyddja>+I find watercooling scary.
[23:14]<gglvugg__>+why that?
[23:15]<gglvugg__>+afraid of leaks?
[23:20]<kyddja>+Yes...
[23:21]<gglvugg__>+not that bad - never had a leak - changing the water can be a bit of a mess though
[23:21]<gglvugg__>+(if you dont do it right)
[23:22]<gglvugg__>+the biggest problem with watercooling is that its more expensive and it isnt as easy to change something of the system once its built
