What Are You Doing Right Now

Chilling tonight

@Joy It took me a minute to figure out that was a bottle of something. All I saw were the two glowing "eyes"...

Gooooood morning campers. Welcome to another Monday!

Half day today trying to catch up on some things.

Debating what to do with this super micro box.
Has this motherboard in it.
Have hyper-v server installed now.
I recently saw a (single) Raspberry Pi in full AT Computer case. It really seemed lonely all by itself.

Having a monster rack mount 4U chassis with an RP2 in it would be hilarious. And have it boot from SD card too, ha.

Leave all the fans in it! RP2 hurricane haha

I see a number of builds where they have 64 or more RP2s in a cluster. Lot of wonder in that...

Sounds fun but I can't imagine it being terribly efficient ($ or KW/h)

About to start my shift at Staples. 1-6 today

Actually they are designed specifically because they are so power efficient. That's why there is a big move to ARM RISC servers.

The raspberry Pi?
I think you're confusing it with the end result of "what will run this the fastest for the least amount of money"

Not the RP specifically, they are starting to make far more powerful 64bit ARM server procs (AMD is racing to get these out.) But RPs too. The RP has some of the best bang for the buck because of the volume in production.

Not sure what you mean?

I think they are power efficient(ish) as a bonus - the design goal was a cheap computer.

Edit: I think you're talking about the ARM cpu and I'm talking about the RPi?

Correct.

Packed up my desk and gaming PC last night... probably won't see it for at least a couple of months.
