16:39 <SilverFox> 1.3Ghz lul

16:40 <SilverFox> I bet a 200Mhz overclock would be impressive

18:46 <Greys> hmm https://www.amazon.com/NVIDIA-Jetson-TX2-Development-Kit/dp/B06XPFH939/ref=pd_cart_qp_2_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B06XPFH939&pd_rd_r=1HHFPFWQGZZRSYPDY83S&pd_rd_w=x49xc&pd_rd_wg=4vBqG&psc=1&refRID=1HHFPFWQGZZRSYPDY83S

18:53 <Greys> if I'm understanding this system right, it's a three processor system on a board that you plug into other boards, kind of like a high performance pi except you plug it into something on the order of a motherboard and the combination of chips on the board are each very suitable for a certain type of compute load so they're useful for heavy computation in a way pis aren't

18:54 <Greys> then here's a 1U formfactor with 24 of the system boards https://devblogs.nvidia.com/parallelforall/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/UTX1AS_inside-Top-Angle_B-624x388.png

18:59 <Greys> abort; more important news

18:59 <Greys> there is a growing superstition in china that it is good luck to throw coins in the jet engines while you walk to load into the plane

19:02 <Greys> how many chinese coins do you think a jetliner engine could survive in it at spinup

19:08 <Greys> chinese coins from the 50s were aluminum, from the 80s were brass and "cupro-nickel", then aluminum and nickel clad steel in the 90s; then the aluminum ones were replaced with nickel plated steel; is plating different from cladding?

19:08 <Greys> seems like all the coins should currently be nickel and steel
