punkman: https://hdplex.com/hdplex-h5-fanless-computer-case.html interesting little case with a bunch of copper pipe
asciilifeform: punkman: funnily enuff, that case is mentioned in asciilifeform's piece on the sad state of passive cooling for workstations.
asciilifeform: punkman: i expect it worx ok, so long as yer not trying to dissipate a kW
asciilifeform: ( and, naturally, that yer mobo is a miniature thing an not a eatx monster, and you don't care for raid cards, video, etc )
asciilifeform: afaik there are no passive cooling systems sold for serious workstation. (there seems to have been exactly 1 attempt, historically, and went outta biz)
punkman: yeah definitely can't fit workstation in there
punkman: might be nice for small wattage though
asciilifeform using 'kdpe-d16' mobo in torture room, would pay good money for 100% passive cooling for same but nodice
dulapbot: Logged on 2020-12-21 19:54:39 asciilifeform: will prolly try the infamous kdpe-d16 next. this an' the other one, were the last 2 opteron+ecc mobos before the great fritzchipping.
punkman: I'm trying to get a particular mini-itx with on-board cpu, and seems it's sold out everywhere
asciilifeform: there's over9000 of these, neh
punkman: not really
punkman: there's a lot of micro-pc boxes, but almost all have single sata port and such
punkman: want one with 4 ports, plus pci-e space when I want to add more
punkman: seems like it will only eat 10-20watts when idle, I like that
signpost: speaking of sold out, apuX can't be had until "~2022"
asciilifeform: signpost: even in 'peacetime' had 8-9wk lead times iirc
asciilifeform: signpost: they seem to make'em in fuckgoats-sized batches
signpost: yeah, but had specific dates. I don't think they know when they can get another batch done.
asciilifeform: dunno who these days knows just when they can get batch done
asciilifeform: even smt resistors in shortage.
signpost: indeed

asciilifeform: thimbronion: try it out, will update next rev of spec if worx errywhere
asciilifeform feels rather 'meh' re the warts of irc compat. but the alternative would've been 'need guisms on N os' and 'need all new bots' before can even experiment w/ prototype -- which asciilifeform maintains is unpalatable.
asciilifeform: thimbronion: i suspect various extant irc clients will barf on 'too long' nicks which'll inevitably result from the hearsay format, for instance.

asciilifeform: thimbronion et al : asciilifeform while rereading pest spec found a logical bug : in 4.2.3.3, station is asked to count distinct peers who sent duplicates of a hearsay msg ; but to simply count'em is flawed, as likely ~all~ the station's peers will send'em due to bounceback.
asciilifeform: proposed alt algo is to take the bounce count of the copy with the lowest bounce count and only count such dupes whose bounce count is equal to it.
asciilifeform: ( anuther obv. pill would be to abolish bounceback, i.e. relay of a msg to sender; presently these do no good whatsoever, tho earlier was thinking they make for good liveness confirm )
asciilifeform: vex: i srsly doubt he's tuned in, went to his www not long ago and it was kilometres of shitcoinism as far as eye could see
vex: I doubt it too. I still read him
asciilifeform: ( subj, for the entomologically inclined )
thimbronion: asciilifeform: actually blatta currently doesn't bounce back.
asciilifeform: oh hm
asciilifeform oughta nail down in spec
asciilifeform: somehow omitted this
asciilifeform: thimbronion: the problem described above still exists, because msg can travel in a loop
asciilifeform: (until someone drops it on acct of bounce > cut)
asciilifeform: and while on this subj, 3 is possib. too small of a default cut.
asciilifeform: the 'who gave copies' thing is there to deal with the case where e.g. thimbronion peers asciilifeform and bitbot , signpost peers asciilifeform and bitbot , asciilifeform not peered bitbot but gets a hearsay from same via thimbronion and signpost
asciilifeform: imho useful to distinguish such case visually from plain hearsay
asciilifeform: ( incidentally on asciilifeform's 1stpass reading of thimbronion's 9987 patch, currently the indicator only triggers if in-wot hearsay ? )
asciilifeform: per spec oughta trigger on all hearsays if multiple peers relayed
thimbronion: asciilifeform: yes simiple hearsay is not embargoed currently
asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-11-28#1068105 << thinking about it moar, would make just as much sense to count only such copies where bounce==1.
dulapbot: Logged on 2021-11-28 22:55:20 asciilifeform: proposed alt algo is to take the bounce count of the copy with the lowest bounce count and only count such dupes whose bounce count is equal to it.
asciilifeform: thimbronion: a ok
thimbronion: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-11-28#1068117 << as it stands blatta will just pass on the first message received as hearsay and drop any additional copies as dupes since there's no hope of receiving an immediate copy.

asciilifeform: right
asciilifeform: ( per spec tho oughta indicate via which peer(s) came the hearsay; 1 of the uses of the embargo buffer is to give an extended 'now' moment (given as in reality msgs cannot actually arrive simultaneously, on x86 not even if via multiple nics, given there's 1 bus..) to make this possible.
thimbronion: asciilifeform: currently indicates which peer (the first). I can change it to embargo simple hearsay messages as well.
asciilifeform: thimbronion: with your current logic, a msg which is coming via multiple peers will display one effectively at random.
asciilifeform: so yea, per spec oughta embargo all hearsays
asciilifeform: thimbronion: does asciilifeform's reasoning make sense to you ?
asciilifeform: (imho oughta display the avail. info, given as it exists, rather than a random)
asciilifeform recommends to readers to lay out the paths on paper/chalkboard to properly apprehend this and other 'complicated' cases
