We have an algorithm to find all prime, but we are hitting the limitation of CPU and memory when it comes to the largest so far...
00:29
<
ve2dmn >
There's even a BOINC project that been running for quite some time
00:31
<
ve2dmn >
The current largest prime we know is (2^74,207,281) -1,
00:31
<
ve2dmn >
that number has 22,338,618 digits
00:32
<
Greys >
are you sure that's 74 gigabytes?
00:32
<

is that including a bunch of proof?

sorry, no. that size was with all the digit printed out
00:35

in binary, it's just 74,207,280 consecutives '1'
00:35
<

so like the print job?
00:36
<
Greys >
tough ask for most printers yea
00:36
<
ve2dmn >
in binary, it's around 10MB, if my math is right
00:37
<
Greys >
it'd be 74.~Mb right?
00:37
<
ve2dmn >
you need to divide by 8 first
00:38
<
ve2dmn >
then divide by 1024 instead of 1000 to get Megabytes instead of Mebibytes
00:38
<
ve2dmn >
(or whatever they are called)
00:39
<
Greys >
nope, megabytes are base ten
00:39
<
Greys >
mebibytes exist because SI said "never ever use our prefixes for not base ten things"
00:41
<
Greys >
I have a long history of mocking mebibibbles and the like
00:43
<
ve2dmn >
I simply don't usually care
00:43
<
Greys >
that is the correct position yea
00:44
<
ve2dmn >
If you want to see my irrationnal behavior, ask my opinion on date, time and various other formats and conventions
00:45
<
Greys >
that's also the correct position
00:45
<

I should 'not care' but I've been mocked for making mistakes by people who didn't want to learn

I bet they have to curve the blades like that to stop it from creating a prop effect

and ripping itself from the ceiling
05:46

that's like a helicoptor rotor
05:53

it is but it's also much slower; I think the tips are to push the blades inward, resisting centriafugrer force

So new rumors suggest that nvidias next lineup of gamer GPUs is gonna be called Ampere
21:31
<
SilverFox >
I've also just realized the theme with their naming
21:31
<
SilverFox >
named after famous scientists and math peoples and shit
21:41
<
lpg >
what did you think it was?
21:42
<
lpg >
curious that Ampere tipped you off but not Pascal or Maxwell
21:46
Rokker has joined #kspmodders
21:46
<
SilverFox >
I just never thought about it
21:46
<
SilverFox >
and then it just clicked
21:46
<
SilverFox >
Pascal made me think like Pastel
21:47
<
SilverFox >
just some cool name someone came up with
21:47
<
SilverFox >
but you dont come up with a name like "Ampere"
21:50
<
SilverFox >
idk about Fermi though
21:50
<
SilverFox >
is Fermi a special name?
21:53
<
SilverFox >
also, with how good a 1060 is, the next time I'd want to upgrade, it'd have to perform at least 75% better
21:53
<
ve2dmn >
The Fermi paradox: AKA where are all the aliens?
21:55
<
SilverFox >
so currently that's either a 1080 or a 1080ti
21:55
<
SilverFox >
1080 is double the price
21:55
<
SilverFox >
a 1080ti is triple
21:56
<
SilverFox >
but is +117% better rather than just +73% from the 1080
21:56
<
SilverFox >
lpg, you seen that new uhh From Other Worlds vr game thing?
21:56
<
lpg >
don't think so, no
21:57
<
lpg >
I like my 1080, I think I'm set for awhile
21:57
<
SilverFox >
oh yeah, 1080's gonna be good for a long time
21:57
<
SilverFox >
980's are still good
21:57
<
SilverFox >
dunno about 780's, but they'd still be pretty decent as well
21:58
<
SilverFox >
oh my bad
21:58
<
SilverFox >
it's called From other Suns
21:59
<
SilverFox >
also, there's a new speedtest site I recommend using
21:59
<
SilverFox >
it's called Fast.com and it's run by netflix, so it shows you truly what your providers are giving you
22:00
<
SilverFox >
because currently times warner and comcast prioritize traffic to speedtest.net so it's artificial speeds
22:00
<
SilverFox >
but they can't prioritize traffic to netflix, because they dont want to
22:01
<
SilverFox >
try it out, I get 26Mb/s and I pay for 25
22:02
<
SilverFox >
although it doesn't do upload speed testing
22:09
<
lpg >
oh, that's neat
22:09
<
lpg >
Google has one that's good too
22:10
<
lpg >
speed test dot net was a piece of crap anyways
22:13
<
SilverFox >
speedtest.net was pretty good I find
22:13
<
SilverFox >
but it is exploitable, so its time to move to something that isnt
22:59
<
SilverFox >
So all the colleges in ontario have been on strike for 5 weeks now
22:59
<
SilverFox >
all classes and training stopped
23:00
<
SilverFox >
students are pissed and stressed and dropping out en masse
23:00
<
SilverFox >
no idea if refunds will be given
23:00
<
SilverFox >
there's now a class action lawsuit going on
23:07
<
SilverFox >
why what?
23:07
<
SilverFox >
why the strike?
23:07
<
lpg >
all of this, yeah
23:08
<
lpg >
the strike, class action lawsuit
23:08
<
SilverFox >
so strike; nobody fucking knows
23:08
<
SilverFox >
they wont tell us why
23:08
<
SilverFox >
for no good reason
23:09
<
SilverFox >
lawsuit: students are angry and stressed over losing christmas break and losing 5 weeks so far of valuable education that they had to save up to pay for, and they're gonna come back to a condensed course when lots of courses are already jam packed and very hard to learn all the stuff in the timeframe given
23:10
<
SilverFox >
which is why lots of students are dropping out, because they wont be able to handle the stress of learning all that shit in such a short amount of time
23:15
<
lpg >
that's pretty nuts
23:17
<
SilverFox >
and here's the kicker
23:17
<
SilverFox >
because of how the student loan system works, if you drop out of a course, there's a chance you might not be able to get funding again
23:31
