11:10:22 <peter1138> we used poisonous gases
11:10:29 <peter1138> and we poisoned their asses
11:10:34 <peter1138> the humans are dead
11:18:11 *** TheMask96 has joined #openttd
11:32:05 <Eddi|zuHause> we did try that, but then everybody got mad at us...
11:43:10 <V453000> Eddi|zuHause I always heard you have to be patient to reach your goals ... just try again in case of fail
11:55:55 *** k1ngp1n has joined #openttd

12:04:03 <Wolf01> Mmmh, internet backbone behaving bad again... >150ms ping to reach anything outside italy
12:04:33 <__ln__> who needs anything outside italy on the other hand

12:58:52 *** techmagus has joined #openttd
13:01:36 <peter1138> pom te pom ... i5-7600k or i7-7700k
13:02:48 <Wolf01> Userbenchmark says i7-7700k
13:03:20 <LordAro> you're unlikely to need an i7 unless you know you need an i7
13:04:24 <V453000> you're unlikely to need an i7 unless you play openttd
13:05:04 <SpComb> isn't i7 about like more cores and hyperthreading than i5
13:05:05 <Wolf01> Running multiple virtual machines is a pita with an i5
13:05:17 <SpComb> although I have a dual-core i7, so dunno
13:06:10 <LordAro> top-spec i7 vs top-spec i5 *generally* isn't worth the extra cost
13:10:53 *** welshdragon has joined #openttd
13:14:32 <peter1138> yeah it's like £240 vs £350 :S
13:14:55 <peter1138> plus the i5 may be able to overclock higher due to lacking hyperthreading
13:16:12 <__ln__> lucky for you the pound is worth less than before
13:20:10 <peter1138> 6MB vs 8MB cache. woo.
13:22:22 <__ln__> i just sold my nearly-9-year-old Q6600 + motherboard + 8GB for 61€. didn't imagine it was still worth so much.
13:23:03 <peter1138> still using my q6600
13:25:54 *** welshdragon has joined #openttd
13:30:08 <peter1138> £1619 for top end i7
13:30:39 <Wolf01> Wow, less than a macbook and 350% more powerful alone
13:31:37 <__ln__> i don't think you can install thatn top end i7 to a laptop
13:31:42 <peter1138> bah, trying to find a decent case without a stupid window
13:34:59 <peter1138> i could just use my old case
13:35:11 <peter1138> cooling's a bit shit
13:36:05 <peter1138> Crucial Ballistix Sport LT 32GB (4x16GB)
13:37:26 <peter1138> hmm , wonder if i should replace the psu as well. it's a decent one just a few years old now.
13:38:31 <LordAro> no reason to if you don't need to

15:25:09 <supermop_> ive never had an i5
15:25:26 <supermop_> i always got i7 because 7 is a bigger number than 5
15:36:57 <peter1138> i've never had either
15:58:35 *** techmagus has joined #openttd
16:01:32 <Eddi|zuHause> i've usually had AMD
16:10:16 <V453000> omg red team faggot, everyone flame him
16:11:29 <peter1138> i had cyrix -> intel -> amd -> intel. my computers last a while...
16:14:21 <peter1138> although apparently amd's new one is good
16:21:00 *** TheMask96 has joined #openttd
16:31:27 <__ln__> i actually have two i5s at the moment... i5 + i5 = i10
16:32:39 <crem> I believe I had i5. Unless Lenovo Thinkpad T420s had a version with i7.
16:33:11 <crem> How long do your HDDs usually last? I had one HDD failed every year.
16:33:22 <crem> But last 3 years there were no failures though..
16:33:31 <crem> Probably because I stopped backuping.

17:15:41 <Eddi|zuHause> i did have a cyrix at some point
17:21:15 *** frosch123 has joined #openttd
17:22:46 <Eddi|zuHause> that said, this one is about 5 years old now

21:32:25 <Wolf01> andythenorth, every time you blink a weeping angel comes closer
21:33:17 <Wolf01> But you join and quit :P
21:33:49 * andythenorth was afk, dunno what the computer did
21:34:32 <andythenorth> anyone made a NRT grf yet? o_O
21:37:40 <andythenorth> whose idea was that? :P
21:40:35 <Wolf01> Bah, my abilities don't match :(
21:40:55 <Wolf01> Also my distance doesn't match
21:42:37 <__ln__> does your nationality match?
21:43:05 <Wolf01> It might be a problem with brexit
21:43:32 <andythenorth> brexit means brexit
21:45:53 <Alberth> you're getting pounds anyway :)
21:48:12 <__ln__> what does the 'nationality rules' mean in practice anyway?
21:48:20 *** sim-al2 has joined #openttd
21:52:31 <andythenorth> nationality rules means nationality rules
21:53:13 <Wolf01> Like "there are too many italians here, please stop come for stealing our jobs"
21:53:16 <__ln__> citizen of a country that is ruled by elizabeth?
21:53:46 <__ln__> or more like reigned by
21:55:11 <andythenorth> but I employ Canadians, Australians and New Zealanders
21:56:01 <supermop_> people from St. Lucia?
21:56:03 <andythenorth> not sure who their monarch is :P
21:56:10 <andythenorth> supermop_: not afaik
21:56:35 <andythenorth> forums is not very interesting :(
21:56:51 <andythenorth> also fundraising is very slow this year
21:56:58 <andythenorth> or my perception is wrong
21:57:17 <Wolf01> Eh, no job, no 10€ to forums
22:07:21 <supermop_> i still have not writen any code, to answer the question. next few days at work won't leave much time for it
22:10:47 <__ln__> do you think with brexit there will be scotxit?
22:13:26 <__ln__> and if scotland remains in the EU, how likely is it that Gibraltar becomes a part of scotland?
22:13:54 <andythenorth> scoxit? dunno :)
22:14:33 <supermop_> i dont know if many people outside of England or Gibraltar care that much about the final disposition of Gibraltar
22:14:33 <debdog> a "scot it" would be way cooler
22:15:14 <Eddi|zuHause> uhm, scotland might act up a bit if brexit actually goes through, but there is almost no chance anything is going to happen with gibraltar
22:16:07 <Eddi|zuHause> possibly gibraltar gets special treatment for people travelling to and from spain
22:16:33 <Eddi|zuHause> that's why there's a 2 year timeframe, to figure out this kind of detail
22:16:49 <__ln__> from a tourist's perspective there is no special treatment at that border even now.
22:17:20 <Eddi|zuHause> yes. britain is not in the schengen zone
22:17:27 <Eddi|zuHause> but the people working there
22:17:32 <Eddi|zuHause> and travelling back and forth
22:17:51 <Eddi|zuHause> work permits and stuff
22:18:07 <supermop_> __ln__: it would be easiest for UK to cede it back to spain, but little englanders will want to keep it, almost everyone else will not care
22:19:20 <supermop_> there are also crown possessions not part of the UK, which conceivably would not need to have their status changed by brexit
22:20:03 <Eddi|zuHause> nobody is concerned about those...
22:20:10 <Eddi|zuHause> those are usually some remote island
22:20:34 <__ln__> however gibraltar is a strategically important piece of land to own.
22:20:42 <supermop_> isle of man is not too remote
22:21:36 <supermop_> nor is Jersey, though it is fairly small
22:21:44 <supermop_> Eddi|zuHause: less remote than Ireland
22:22:13 <Eddi|zuHause> it's not just geographical distance
22:24:09 <supermop_> A Manx passport would still conceivably be a EU passport, for any Britons who wanted one
22:24:54 <supermop_> actually the reverse
22:25:05 <supermop_> Isle of Man was never part of the EU
22:49:13 *** andythenorth has left #openttd
22:55:11 <supermop_> but tbh she probably would be safer in jail than in Trump's america
23:10:40 *** welshdragon has joined #openttd
continue to next day ⏵
