gives raptop a giant axiom with a shredder attachment
raptop is now known as testraptop

current status, watching painful tech support that I'm convinced could be done trivially if anyone was in the room with the person having technical difficulties

[WIKIPEDIA] Diapsid | "Diapsids ("two arches") are a group of amniote tetrapods that developed two holes (temporal fenestra) in each side of their skulls about 300 million years ago during the late Carboniferous period. The diapsids are extremely diverse, and include all crocodiles, lizards, snakes, tuatara, turtles, and birds..."

notably dinosaurs, especially birbs

can you like, dual-channel RAM an architecture?

<raptop>
something like that
<SilverFox>
can you DDR a clock oscillator signal so you can run my two arduino's in series, but quick enough that it doesn't take up at least two clock cycles so you can do a 16-bit function in form of 8bit + (8bit+carry)?
<SilverFox>
Like, the arduino mega runs at 16MHz, and if I did the series thing their maximum speed would be halved to 8MHz, but if I had a 32MHz oscillator in there, doing double duty, they'd still be able to operate at their rated 16Mhz speeds
<SilverFox>
Although all this made moot by the arduino Due's existence with 84MHz clock lmao
<SilverFox>
I still need to figure out VGA and ethernet and I'll be set

What is the ratio of productivity between a person and a dispsid?
<X>
Also is anyone here into stupid audio stuff?
<raptop>
X: the productivity ratio depends on education, equipment, etc
<X>
Let’s assume
<X>
That the person is college educated with the top of the line equipment of a 1982 base year.

raptop: I hate it when the options in software are non intuitive and you waste 3 hrs trying to align on stars and get a mount model with errors below 2000 arcsec

*2000* arcsec?
<raptop>
X: anyway, I'm the diapsid, and if you call my salary $20-25k, and the telescope $800k...
<WeylandsWings>
raptop: yes 2000 arc sec. or about 33 arc min or about half a degree thank hod for well boresighted finderscope
<WeylandsWings>
Also not fun getting home to a power outage
<Profound>
0. Many CDK700s are deployed around the world at various institutions such as: Caltech, Harvard, Penn State, University of New South Wales, Simon Frasier University, University of Montana
<Profound>
WEll that explains it
<Profound>
the telescope at UM, which is where I went is...
<Profound>
not used a lot
<Profound>
It's just a little podunk thing up on a mountain.
<Profound>
I don't think they can plow the road during the winter either
<raptop>
ow
<WeylandsWings>
Well that would effect your sage rate as winter nights are longer and give more observing time
<raptop>
Uh, speaking of Harvard, they have 5 (4 MINERVA + 1 MINERVA Red) on Mount Hopkins IIRC
<raptop>
Guess MINERVA Australis isn't getting a 6th scope any time soon

I mean, sure, but this documentation was first written in an era where it made sense to have warnings that you were going to multimegabyte pages

bleh, freezer is making sounds like it's starting to die (alongside the refrigerator as a whole)
