12:18 AM rue_shop3: Triffid_Hunter, ...
12:19 AM rue_shop3: maybe could you render another one for me?
12:19 AM rue_shop3: maybe I just need more tea...
12:37 AM rue_shop3: haha, I raced a few machines
12:37 AM rue_shop3: but the new version of openscad dosn't render it properly
12:39 AM rue_shop3: aha, my dxf had a lapped line segment
12:40 AM rue_shop3: hahahah the 3Ghz P4 took 8 mins, the 800Mhz Amd took 3 mins
12:41 AM z64555: Yeah, the P4's had... issues
12:41 AM z64555: so I've heard
12:42 AM rue_shop3: to be beaten more than 2 fold by a machine with less than 1/3 the speed?!
12:42 AM rue_shop3: thats more than an issue
12:43 AM rue_shop3: "what we call that there is a FAIL"
12:46 AM z64555: er, wait a minute
12:46 AM z64555: 3GHz + P4... does not compute
12:46 AM rue_shop3: both dual
12:46 AM rue_shop3: its.. just stupid how much faster this 800Mhz AMD is
12:48 AM z64555: that's a big reason why AMD scored a footprint in the CPU industry
12:48 AM rue_shop3: it was math too
12:49 AM rue_shop3: the intel should have won, cause it can do internal stuff faster and has a much larger cache
12:49 AM rue_shop3: amd wins for rate of moving data around, which is most things
12:49 AM rue_shop3: intel is supposed to win at things that dont require bus speed in and out of the processor
01:04 AM rue_: my 3.2G does it in 1min 17 sec
01:04 AM rue_: so that 800Mhz amd is pretty dam good
01:04 AM rue_: oops
01:04 AM rue_: I take it back 15 sec, I had something modified
01:06 AM rue_: WTF, cant anyone do a spaceball properly for manipulating 3d object rotations?
01:14 AM rue_shop3: if this were the quality of the gaming stuff, people wouldn't play games like they do
06:32 AM z64555: They don't use spaceballs for gaming, however
06:33 AM z64555: and the "top pros" for flight simulators usually use a high priced HOTAS or a custom job

11:43 AM rue_: yes
11:44 AM rue_: when you use the mouse to rotate a 3d view, "spaceball"
11:44 AM rue_: the idea is that your grabbing a virtual sphere
11:45 AM rue_: openscad and just about everyone else get it wrong, and start going left when your dragging right

08:01 PM rue_shop3: I wish "other items people bought with this" really were. I realized latley its just stuff they want to premote
