ELLIOTTCABLE: remember that evolutionary fpga programming thingy
<eligrey>
that made programs that only worked on the specific fpgas they were trained on
<eligrey>
in 2007 or so
<eligrey>
due to weird rf stuff
<ljharb>
ELLIOTTCABLE: we pick up our x tomorrow, yay
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
:3
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
eligrey: wasn't talking about that
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
was a different thing where nn's trained to assemble electronics assembled actual physical circuits that only worked due to EM coupling interactions
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
ljharb! ljharb ljharb ljharb!
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
did you tell me this was a surprise for your wife or something like that, or am I hallucinating that
<eligrey>
also looks like freenode finally lifted their blanket ipv6 ban on vzw
<eligrey>
fuck freenode tho
<eligrey>
so fucking unresponsive about it
<eligrey>
ELLIOTTCABLE: link me plsthx
<eligrey>
i want to read more
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
no idea told about it third-hand by a ham or something
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
ask whitequark or smith, don't care
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
god I love this guy he's so cuuuuute!
<ljharb>
eligrey: it's not a surprise for her, but it is for her
<ljharb>
ELLIOTTCABLE: ^ oops
<ljharb>
ELLIOTTCABLE: she owns a mini cooper right now and that's too small for stuff and a baby
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
do you already drive an S? I can't remember if I asked you that?
<eligrey>
ELLIOTTCABLE buy me a model S
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
nasty
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
S is trash
<eligrey>
actually even a model 3 is fine
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
get an X :P
<ljharb>
ELLIOTTCABLE: nope, no S. i have a mazda 3.
<eligrey>
as long as it has the better battery, full self driving hw, and the subscription to their charger network
<eligrey>
ELLIOTTCABLE: invest in oftn inc
<eligrey>
$$$ = $$$$$
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
no. 🙄
<eligrey>
thats what happens
<eligrey>
i'll give you two more $
<eligrey>
in 2 years
<ljharb>
eligrey: if you want the subscription you have to buy it before january 1
<ljharb>
after 1/1/17, no more teslas will ever have free supercharging for life
<eligrey>
ok wtf
<eligrey>
fuck you tesla
<ljharb>
only free for a year, subscription payment after (like the 3)
<eligrey>
buying your fucking dumb car
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
eligrey: omfg stfu
<eligrey>
right now
<eligrey>
fuck you
<ljharb>
lol yup
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
it's 2016 nobody has a use for trolls like you anymore
<ljharb>
fuck elon all the way to the bank
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
'cept perhaps the Trump campaign / neo-nazi movements
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
ಠ_ಠ
<eligrey>
i cant believe hes getting rid of that
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I'm extremely happy he's getting rid of that
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I love him so much I want to marry him?!?????
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
he's so cute
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
he cracks open a $US 20k spectrum analyzer and just starts moaning and mumbling while pointing at things because he can't even form words anymore
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
it's so cuuuuuteursuyditjofykgj,
<eligrey>
i only need like 300k subscribers to get that for free
<eligrey>
cool
<eligrey>
way better than a play button
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
they gave him one to tear apart, but it's a demonstration model and he has to return it -_-
<eligrey>
he said partway in he doesnt
<eligrey>
actually wait nvm
<eligrey>
they just said its okay to tear it down yeah nvm
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
AHHAHAHAH
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
HALFWAY THROUGH
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
he goes “I'm going to probably get complaints for poking around on this beautiful board with a swiss-army knife —
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
shut up. I know what I'm doing.”
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
omfg
<eligrey>
ELLIOTTCABLE: does he ever use it?
<eligrey>
this is zz
<eligrey>
zzz
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
no lol this is a teardown
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
there's presumably another video
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
although actually I kinda doubt it
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
he's got no reason to review a 20k test equipment; that's not his target market
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
anybody who can afford this knows whether they need it or not :P
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
this is 100% “RF circuit porn”
<eligrey>
all the juicy stuff is under some big gold plated pads
<eligrey>
and he doesnt remove them according to what hes saying at the point im at
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
the gold-plated pads *are* the juicy stuff
<eligrey>
oh cool
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
if you're talking about the tuned coupled resonators printed onto the PCB
<eligrey>
ooh
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
like, the gold patterns? or what
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
yeah RF shit is wild
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
this is why it's fun
<eligrey>
hey idea
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
what's a PLD
<eligrey>
ill invest in your rf & em drive-based cpu
<eligrey>
that i know you want to make
<eligrey>
and you invest in oftn right now
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
lol.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
no interest whatsoever
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I work on paws sometime and mostly just learn
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
frankly I've slowly realized I have *no idea* what I want to produce with my life, besides programming languages; I'm 100% still in “undirected, Learn All The Things” mode, at 27 freaking years old
<eligrey>
do you still have the kind of capital to invest in small startups btw?
<eligrey>
just curious
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
lol.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
honey, if you showed me a functional immortality treatment, I still wouldn't invest in you.
<eligrey>
i would hold it against you
<eligrey>
i would ban you from our immortality service
<eligrey>
like elon does
<eligrey>
i mean if i showed you that and you said no
<eligrey>
im not holding this against you
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
elon haaaaates somebody in Nebraska
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
all the supercharger routs just ... go around it
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
never through it
<eligrey>
i would if it was something so obviously good though
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
last time I went through, you could go slightly north and go around Nebraska; or go slightly south and go around Nebraska
<eligrey>
do you have the supercharger network thing?
<eligrey>
do you feel like its worth it?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
yes, mine's grandfathered in
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
is what worth what
<eligrey>
to buy a model 3 now instead of getting one in 2019 with improved everything, self driving included in the price probably
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
model 3 isn't available now
<eligrey>
order
<eligrey>
wait omg
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
will never be available with subsidized-for-life charging
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
was never offered that
<eligrey>
so even if i ordered it now i cant get it
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
even the initial announcement that was made clear
<eligrey>
i heard it was a paid option
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
the Model S and Model X future plans were announced later, tho
<eligrey>
i swear i heard that from an official channel
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
*oh* like pay
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
sorry, misunderstood you *headdesk*
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
It's, like, worth it if you use superchargers a lot? I'm sure it's available as an add-on later. Double-check with Tesla, but I'd buy without, and then add-on later.
<eligrey>
ah ok
<eligrey>
ELLIOTTCABLE: what is your display setup
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
painful and ridiculous and accidental
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
tl;dr 2x 4k + 2x 5k
<eligrey>
and is it 4k hdr 120hz / 5k hdr 75hz yet
<eligrey>
ew probably current get 4k and 5k
<eligrey>
so 60hz
<eligrey>
gen*
<eligrey>
still on the same 1440p 120hz ips from 2011 + 2x 1080p 60hz ips vertical
<eligrey>
once the up3017q comes out i'm getting 1 or 2 of them
<eligrey>
and just using that for everything
<eligrey>
well if i get one obviously id keep using my 1440
