07:16 sfan5 sure hope c55 is not on a celeron cpu anymore
07:26 MTDiscord <ggepic64> Or upgraded his pc with 54 more celerons :thinksmirk:

13:11 Ingar Izzy: lol my thoughts exactly
13:49 cheapie sfan5: Celeron D 355 *nods* :P
13:49 cheapie Or maybe Celeron G550

15:41 [MatrxMT] <birdlover32767> he should upgrade to a c56
15:42 * cheapie upgrades birdlover32767 to birdlover-32768
15:42 user333_ i have run luanti on a (modern) celeron
15:43 user333_ it took like 20min to compile but ran quite well on the intel hd graphics (tm)
15:43 cheapie Still better than the ~12 hours it takes to compile just the server on a SiS 550
15:44 * user333_ introduces cheapie to crosscompiling
15:44 cheapie but that's no fun :P
15:44 [MatrxMT] <birdlover32767> I SPENT 100 DAYS COMPILING LUANTI BY HAND... (COREDEVS CAME)
15:44 user333_ average youtube video title
15:44 [MatrxMT] <birdlover32767> to be fair simulating all the instructions would take like 5 years
15:45 cheapie Now I wonder, if I get Linux running on RVController someday, how many years Luanti would take to compile on _that_
15:45 user333_ try it on a RISC-V VM in lua + luajit, that will give you the best possible result

19:36 celeron55 for the record, i use an i7-11850H. i've never ran luanti on the celeron machine my nickname is based on. i think it was a SEPP packaged 366MHz Celeron Mendocino, and the motherboard allowed overclocking it to 550MHz
19:36 celeron55 i still have it though
19:45 cheapie D:
19:45 cheapie Time to see if you can get it running :D
19:54 [MatrxMT] <birdlover32767> release luanti 1.0.0 when it drops below 30fps on a celeron
20:21 rubenwardy I have a celeron under my bed
20:25 MTDiscord <.zenonseth> ?
20:25 MTDiscord <.zenonseth> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/749727888659447960/1553140293979734046/26-09-25-21-24-46-Celeron_-_Wikipedia_-_Vivaldi.png?ex=6ab82a1e&amp;is=6ab6d89e&amp;hm=98ca2668935f8545a190504d82fd3ba0cb710a88b3235f6c6d9c856f44731556&amp;
20:26 user333_ i have a crappy celeron n4000 laptop motherboard i should do something with, unfortunately it doesn't have ethernet so i can't easily use it as a server
20:26 rubenwardy Occasionally I kick my celeron but it doesn't do much anymore:(
20:27 cheapie I have a 566MHz Coppermine-128 Celeron somewhere, maybe I should try to get Luanti running on that sometime
20:28 Izzy it took a While to compile it on the powermac G5. runs _almost_ okay on the GF 7600GS

21:26 MTDiscord <luatic> I recently upgraded to a workhorse that manages a Luanti release build in a minute :)
21:27 MTDiscord <.zenonseth> that poor horse
21:27 MTDiscord <.zenonseth> but also in this economy? you must be rich
21:31 MTDiscord <luatic> It did cost me a fair sum, though I kept it below 1k. The RAM prices are eye watering but unfortunately it doesn't look like it's getting better...
21:33 MTDiscord <.zenonseth> yeah who knew AI likes to eat ram, new delicacy i guess
21:33 * user333_ dangles his 64gb ddr4 in front of an LLM
21:34 MTDiscord <.zenonseth> under 1k is impressive though, i was looking at potential programming upgrade for my am5, and its still gonna cost like 400gbp at least
21:35 MTDiscord <.zenonseth> i was lucky to get 64gb of ddr5 just a year before prices skyrocketed too :P now im praying it never goes bad
21:37 user333_ i got my RAM for free in the middle of the price chaos, it was gifted to me
21:38 user333_ anyway, it builds luanti + luantiserver in 1m17s, though i suspect that's due to disk read/write limitations
21:39 MTDiscord <.zenonseth> at 64gb, and even probably 32gb, the bottleneck is almost certainly your cpu, not RAM.,
21:39 MTDiscord <.zenonseth> i guess unless you're running something insane, idk 🤷
21:39 user333_ it's running from a 2018 hard drive, so that's likely the bottleneck
21:40 user333_ i'm testing it from a ramdisk now
21:42 user333_ a few seconds faster but not worth the effort
21:53 [MatrxMT] <Blockhead256> ramdis hardly helps against the file cache. SSD will be much faster, especially if it's NVMe, against a cold start, but warm starts are often comparable with the file cache
21:55 user333_ unfortunately i have no SSDs for my main PC (aside from the one in my laptop, but then i don't have a working laptop)
21:56 user333_ and i'd rather have things load for a few extra seconds then spend money on an SSD these days
21:59 [MatrxMT] <Blockhead256> fair. I managed to snag 3 bargain basement 2 TB SSDs before the price explosion. Actually they were a bit cheaper than HDDs, so it was a no-brainer
23:05 * cheapie looks around her bedroom at three computers with hard drives, all doing their thing
23:05 cheapie I've been hammering that 20TB HDD with stuff for quite a while now :P
23:06 cheapie (the HM-SMR one, the HC650 - still running XFS on it, still working great)
23:06 [MatrxMT] <Blockhead256> hard drives in the bedroom? hope you don't wanna sleep in there
23:09 user333_ my main PC has *two* hard drives, one from 2012 and one from 2018 (boot drive, also the newest hdd i have..) and it's in my bedroom :D
23:10 cheapie Blockhead256: But the hard drive noise makes that easier
23:10 [MatrxMT] <Blockhead256> different types I guess
23:10 [MatrxMT] <Blockhead256> of people
23:10 user333_ depends on the noise too
23:11 user333_ one of my drives makes a very high-pitched whine at times (probably not good)
23:11 [MatrxMT] <Blockhead256> literally I ditched my last WD Red (yeah, already a loud drive to put in a desktop...) because it started continuously whining and it was damaging my hearing
23:12 cheapie One of the true-WD Red ones or a rebadged HGST?
23:13 cheapie FWIW the HC650 I have here (and I think all other WD Ultrastar drives) is one of the HGST-derived ones, they make more noise than the others
23:13 [MatrxMT] <Blockhead256> uhh it was bought like 2022ish, 6 TB model, fairly sure it was a good drive not SMR
23:13 [MatrxMT] <Blockhead256> didn't dive deep enough to know about origin of manufacture
23:14 cheapie If it's that recent and 6TB it's /probably/ a "pure" WD, those are actually the quieter ones
23:15 cheapie If you have the full model number (including after the dash) I can check for sure
23:15 [MatrxMT] <Blockhead256> I'm good thanks, it's a retired drive after all
23:16 cheapie fair :P
23:17 cheapie Here's what the HC650 sounds like: https://cheapiesystems.com/media/hc650-activity-2.opus
23:17 [MatrxMT] <Blockhead256> lesson learned though, NAS drives are loud. I do actually like being able to hear storage activity though, it's like a warning sign. Like I know just how much storage firefox churns when it starts due to disk sounds
23:17 cheapie This one /is/ SMR but it's HM-SMR
23:17 [MatrxMT] <Blockhead256> hmm that's pretty pointy sounding
23:18 cheapie My other HM-SMR drive (Seagate ST14000NM0007) actually has an even... sharper(?) sound
23:19 * user333_ takes a look at the hard drive in his main PC
23:29 user333_ pretty generic 1TB hard drive, had no issues with it so far https://x0.at/5vSZ.JPG
23:32 user333_ it held all my backups until the terrible day i ran the wrong command and then it held nothing
23:33 [MatrxMT] <Blockhead256> woah that's a lot of pixels
23:34 user333_ my camera is the only thing that takes actually good pictures (excepting my phone but the driver for the camera in it is kind of broken on postmarketOS)
23:55 cheapie user333_: Pharaoh Oasis family, good drives, but strangely enough they're contact-start/stop despite being that recent. The 1TB one you have there is the largest-capacity CSS drive ever made
23:57 cheapie Basically a souped-up version of the Barracuda 7200.12 from 2008
23:59 user333_ i'm not sure what most of those words mean but i'll take it as "it's a good hard drive" :D
23:59 cheapie good but old-fashioned
23:59 user333_ it is from 2018, so like 2-3 years ago.. oh wait
