<berndj> i see the words "DIY Homemade NMOS" here: https://www.youtube.com/user/szeloof/videos
<nmz787> pretty sure I've seen one of those videos before
<Noxz> fairly recent
<pie_> ooh.
<Noxz> college, possibly/likely
<Noxz> undergrad

<xulf> hello
<xulf> what do you think about making a sha256 asic chip
<Noxz> box labelled POISON in his fridge, hah
<Noxz> xulf, not sure what crypto things are in common intel chips, but I know there are some
<Noxz> if that did not answer your question, lemme know ;)

<nmz787> yeah, looks like sha256 accel is present in some Intel chips
<berndj> i smell an interest in bitcoin mining, in which case intel chips won't do (but diy cmos also won't)
<berndj> xulf, if i'm right and this is about bitcoin mining, i don't think we've even caught up with 1970 in here, in terms of process scale, so 16nm chips is a little unthinkable
<berndj> maybe if you send money so we can buy cool toys?
<sync> if you want srs bsnz asics made, write your own sha256 hdl and send it to tmsc
<sync> fork over some money and you will get chips back
<xulf> srs bsnz ?
<xulf> I read that there's companies that convert a FPGA design to ASIC, I was thinking about finding people that made FPGA miners a few years ago
<xulf> I need to probably find people that know this process already
