Random reads are good due to low seek time. 21:31 <+Netham45> but, don't HDDs still reign for continious reads/writes? 21:31 < _Digital> this is just one benchmark I've seen.

I will hit disk not matter how much RAM I have. Especially when I get into my large photo work. Whether it is layers or panoramas 21:38 < _Digital> TD-Linux, it depends on what I'm doing at teh time 21:38 < _Digital> and it became 64-bit with CS4 21:38 < _Digital> krisk, in the computer I'll be using it in, 2GB 21:39 < TD-Linux> how much ram does the executable use when it hits swap? 21:39 < TD-Linux> or photoshop tile cache 21:39 < _Digital> I've had my fair share of working with 1, 2, and 3 GB configurations. Fast and slow disks 21:39 <+krisk> hmm you would expect 4-8 to be a requirement on photoshopping sooner than getting an SSD drive 21:39 < TD-Linux> _Digital: ehh, I can see how it would be a problem with serious photo editing and only 2GB of RAM 21:40 <+krisk> 4gb not being much in this case 21:40 < _Digital> even if I bump the RAM to 4 GB, the work that I'll be doing will still be disk bound 21:40 < TD-Linux> I edit 8-10 megapixel photos on only 2GB of RAM, but I can only have one or two open at a time 21:40 <+krisk> surely 8 or 16gb will be a lot cheaper and help a lot more than an ssd drive? 21:41 < _Digital> krisk, you have to consider how this computer will be used 21:41 < TD-Linux> well it sounds like _Digital knows what he wants 21:41 < _Digital> if it was just a desktop, I would agree 21:41 <+krisk> ok? 21:41 < _Digital> I cannot lug around a full tower, it's just not practical 21:41 <+krisk> how will this be used then? 21:42 < _Digital> portable, in field work 21:42 <+krisk> ah 21:42 < _Digital> I mentioned that earlier, but I could've been clearer apparently 21:42 <+krisk> im reading other stuff as well sorry 21:42 <+krisk> how much can it take max? 21:43 < _Digital> RAM? 4GB 21:43 <+krisk> ok then yeah ssd 21:43 < _Digital> I'll be putting two OCZ vertex SSDs in RAID 0 for boot and scratch disk 21:44 < _Digital> since I decided that they even improved the performance of teh OCZ Vertex 21:44 < _Digital> 40 to ~60MB/sec minimum compared to 10MB/sec max on a hard drive when photoshop hits disk 21:45 < _Digital> the speed difference between that and staying in RAM is negligible in real work work 21:45 < _Digital> a person can only work so fast in photoshop 21:50 <+krisk> will these be internal somehow? 21:51 < _Digital> what, the SSDs? 21:51 <+krisk> yeah 21:51 < _Digital> yup 21:51 <+krisk> ok cool 21:52 <+krisk> does it also have a large storage drive? 21:52 < _Digital> I have room for 2 3.5" drives.

'project' as me 22:30 < Kurt_> and that's all I'll say about that, other than it's not related to calculators 22:30 < Kurt_> So, can anybody clear up this thing about using C I don't quite understand? 22:31 < BrandonW> Somebody refusing to talk about something non calculator related. 22:31 < BrandonW> I might faint. 22:31 < Kurt_> I've been learning C++, and I was wondering if programs written in C show up as apps or progs 22:31 < BrandonW> What, on the calculator? 22:31 < Kurt_> yeah 22:31 < BrandonW> This is the 83+/84+ series? 22:31 < Kurt_> Yep 22:31 < BrandonW> Don't bother with C on them. 22:31 < BrandonW> It's not practical. 22:31 < Kurt_> Aww 22:31 < Kurt_> I don't wanna learn ASM. 22:31 < BrandonW> The only thing that's ever been written successfully is CellSheet by TI, and it's crap because of it. 22:31 < _Digital> but the 68Ks can use C 22:31 < TheStorm> it can be done but for the z80's just don't lend well to C 22:31 < Kurt_> So, what does Mirage use? 22:32 < Kurt_> Assembly? 22:32 < BrandonW> Assembly. 22:32 < Kurt_> FUCK 22:32 < Kurt_> I was hoping it wouldn't lead to that.... 22:32 < _Digital> new baby learns a new word 22:32 < BrandonW> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fpw3REoaxxM Yeah, there's the Bluetooth thing. 22:32 < TheStorm> Kurt_, every thing other than CellSheet and a few other programs use C 22:32 < Kurt_> Alright then...... Exactly HOW hard is assembly to use...? 22:32 < BrandonW> It's not hard as long as you stick with it. 22:33 < TheStorm> ^ 22:33 < Kurt_> I've been using TI-BASIC for six years, should that help at all? 22:33 < TheStorm> s/every/no 22:33 < BrandonW> A good understanding of how the OS works is good, but it's a very different language. 22:33 < TheStorm> ^ 22:33 < Kurt_> How the OS works? dang 22:34 -!- Ox40Work [~KevinK@68-117-29-62.static.fdul.wi.charter.com] has joined #tcpa 22:34 < Kurt_> And different doesn't do me any good. 22:34 < BrandonW> What is and isn't possible, I mean. 22:34 -!- mode/#tcpa [+v Ox40Work] by efneTI86 22:34 < Kurt_> Right. 22:34 < Kurt_> I really, REALLY don't want to use ASM if there is anything easier. 22:34 < BrandonW> There's not. 22:34 < BrandonW> This is something that's been coming up for 10 years. 22:34 < BrandonW> There have been so many attempts. 22:34 < BrandonW> Take my word for it, there's not. 22:34 < Kurt_> Damnit. 22:35 < BrandonW> I ask you, why does someone comment "do you know how to download the start up app? my ti 84 didn't come with it" on a USB Bluetooth demo video? 22:35 < TheStorm> http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/268/26877.html is a good place to start 22:35 < TheStorm> Kurt there is also BBCBasic but its jsut another form of basic, though quite a bit faster 22:36 < Kurt_> Faster, you say....? 22:37 < BrandonW> Not the kind of speed you'd expect from an assembly program. 22:37 < Kurt_> Oh well, nothing is as fast as ASM on anything. 22:37 < Kurt_> How many lines of ASM should I expect to be writing for things? 22:37 < BrandonW> That depends on what you're writing. 22:37 < mokomull> gazillions 22:37 < TheStorm> Kurt_, it depends on what you want to do 22:37 < BrandonW> You can do things in a couple of dozen lines or thousands. 22:38 < Kurt_> Aww damn 22:38 < Kurt_> I hate writing tousands of lines of pnemonics 22:38 < TheStorm> Kurt_, take a look at the link I posted eariler 22:38 < Kurt_> I did 22:38 < BrandonW> It becomes second nature soon enough, it's just a matter of sticking with it because you cannot just jump right into it and start designing sprites or games or whatever. 22:38 < TheStorm> the asm in 28 day's one 22:38 < BrandonW> It's not a 2-day thing. 22:39 < BrandonW> Impatience will doom you every time. 22:39 < Kurt_> That makes me sad. 22:39 < Kurt_> It took me six years to master Ti-BASIC, and their's STILL things I am only just learning. 22:40 <+Netham45> BrandonW, did anything come of Periph8x? 22:40 < Kurt_> Only yesterday I learned a faster getKey loop 22:40 < TheStorm> Kurt_, that's true about any language 22:40 < BrandonW> All these things on hold have some sort of bug I couldn't figure out. periph8x's is the keyboard driver needing refactoring. 22:40 < BrandonW> Because the key repeats aren't going away. 22:40 <+Netham45> BrandonW, so, I take it the MSD part of it didn't get finished either? 22:41 < BrandonW> I have a nearly complete understanding of the OS and there are still things I don't know about BASIC. 22:41 < BrandonW> Right, that needs to be rethought out, too. 22:41 < BrandonW> Because I just don't think it's going to work to have a writable partition that links the VAT and FAT16. 22:41 < BrandonW> You have no idea how much of a nightmare that is. 22:41 < BrandonW> I'm using every RAM page. 22:42 < BrandonW> And Windows does a ridiculous amount of read and write caching. 22:42 < BrandonW> You can sit there and pound F5 in an explorer window and not a single command goes to the calculator. 22:42 < BrandonW> I mean, what do you do in that situation? 22:42 < TheStorm> BrandonW, use linux :P 22:42 < TheStorm> j/k 22:42 < Kurt_> what's he talking about? 22:43 < BrandonW> One of my unfinished projects is a USB peripheral driver that lets your 84+/SE function as a flash drive or USB keyboard. 22:43 < BrandonW> Or mouse, or gamepad, or whatever. 22:43 <+Netham45> BrandonW, well, just making it present the calc to the PC as a MSD should be enough to have a custom, portable app that'll let you manipulate files on it. 22:43 < BrandonW> No, no custom portable apps...at that point you're just hauling around TI Connect or TI-Graph Link. 22:44 < BrandonW> The whole purpose of this is to make it work on anything. 22:44 < Kurt_> oh cool 22:44 < BrandonW> A standard USB mass storage device. 22:44 < Kurt_> Also, have you made any thought to helping the DoorsCS guys with the ability to use a USB mouse to control the on screen pointer in Doors? 22:45 < Kurt_> Because if you did, then I would switch to Doors IMMEDIATELY 22:45 < BrandonW> If Kerm wants help, I'll give it. 22:45 < BrandonW> If not, no. 22:45 <+Netham45> mouse on-calc is a joke. 22:45 < TheStorm> ^ 22:45 <+Netham45> I had one of the PS/2 port convertor boxes built 22:45 < TheStorm> its total useless 22:45 <+Netham45> and it sucked. 22:45 <+Netham45> yup. 22:45 < BrandonW> You can use usb8x and USBTools with a real mouse if you're just dying to see a USB mouse work on your 84+/SE. 22:45 < TheStorm> and yet TI thought it was a good idea :P 22:45 < BrandonW> It's just a demo, but still. 22:45 <+Netham45> haha, TheStorm. 22:46 * TheStorm points to the Nspires interface 22:46 < Kurt_> what 22:46 <+Netham45> well, I had the module in DoorsCS that allowed for the PS/2 mouse to be used in Doors, it worked fine, but who's seriously going to carry a mouse around with their calc? 22:46 < Kurt_> i haven't seen it yet 22:46 * Kurt_ raises his hand 22:46 < Kurt_> I have the pocket space for it 22:46 < BrandonW> If I remember correctly, he tried this years ago but usb8x's buffers ate too much RAM for his shell. 22:46 < BrandonW> But who knows. 22:46 < TheStorm> Netham45, I didn't realize someone actually made that 22:47 <+Netham45> TheStorm, I think Kerm did. 22:47 < Merthsoft> there should be a way in excel that if i, say, take the average of certain things in one row, that it'll do that for all the rest of the rows too 22:47 <+Netham45> Kurt_, I have the pocket space for it too, doesn't mean I'm going to go to class, sit down, and whip out a mouse to use on my 84. 22:47 <+Netham45> It's just not practical enough for usage. 22:47 < TheStorm> Merthsoft, Ctrl+C, Crtl+V? 22:47 < Kurt_> I would 22:47 < Merthsoft> TheStorm: but then i have to edit it for each row 22:48 < Kurt_> I would totally do that, just for the cool factor 22:48 <+Netham45> Merthsoft, click the little black corner at the bottom right when the cell is highlighted, and drag that cell. 22:48 < Kurt_> I would also carry a gamepad 22:48 <+Netham45> it'll make adjustments based off of the current column/row. 22:48 < Kurt_> If only I could hack Doom83 to use it 22:48 < Merthsoft> thanks Netham45 22:48 <+Netham45> np, Merthsoft. 22:49 <+Netham45> I think the constant polling of a gamepad would be too much for the calc to handle, while playing a game like that. 22:50 < TheStorm> Netham45, it was done for pheonix, so I'm surre if someone cared enough they could doo it with doom83 22:50 < Kurt_> Well i don't know, neth 22:50 <+Netham45> I'd imagine that Doom83 would take considerablly more resources than phoenix. 22:51 < BrandonW> Netham, no. 22:51 < BrandonW> There is no polling. 22:51 < Kurt_> z80's were used in full fledged PC's in the 80's 22:51 < BrandonW> usb8x raises events when things happen. 22:51 < BrandonW> Like when you press a key. 22:51 < BrandonW> The gamepad driver if I remember correctly will set some flags in RAM that you can check later. 22:51 < BrandonW> And it costs nothing to check those in a game loop. 22:51 <+Netham45> BrandonW, Oh, I thought that usb8x would have to constantly poll the state of the gamepad... 22:52 < BrandonW> Even if it doesn't, you could write your own callback which sets flags. 22:52 <+Netham45> nevermind then. 22:52 < BrandonW> A gamepad is a HID device like keyboards and mice, nothing happens until the device sends data on its interrupt pipe. 22:52 < BrandonW> When that happens, an interrupt on the calculator is generated. 22:52 < BrandonW> And from there, that code could set a flag saying "this key's being pressed, or this key was just released" or whatever. 22:52 <+Netham45> oh. 22:53 <+Netham45> I must be thinking of the old gameport style joysticks/gamepads where you had to poll them to get the state. 22:53 <+Netham45> midi port, or whatever that port was named... 22:54 < Kurt_> serial I/O 22:54 < TheStorm> Netham45, yeah those use a seriral interface so polling would be required 22:54 < Kurt_> I remember my old Sidewinder 22:54 < Kurt_> Then I got a Sidewinder PRO 22:54 < Kurt_> Used it for a good 9 years 22:54 <+Netham45> I have a Logitech Wingman Force that has an RS-232 cable on it. 22:54 <+Netham45> and USB. 22:55 < Kurt_> Now I roll with a Saitek ST290pro that i picked up for Combat flight sims, namely Aces High 2 22:55 <+Netham45> I prefer gamepads to joysticks, I usually use an Xbox 360 controller for games that want a joystick. 22:58 < Kurt_> oh god 22:58 < Kurt_> i'm looking at the learn ASM in 28 days 22:58 < Kurt_> and I have no idea what I'm looking at 22:58 < BrandonW> That's normal. 22:58 < TheStorm> read it starting from day 1 22:58 < BrandonW> Feel free to ask questions. 22:58 < Kurt_> I'm used to user defined variables, functions, libraries, and matricies 22:58 <@Andy_J> !seen joels 22:58 <@efneTI86> JoelS (~JSeligste@1601br1-egress-1.corp.tfbnw.net) was last seen quitting from #tcpa 3 hours, 3 minutes ago stating (Leaving). 22:58 < Kurt_> And now registers? 22:58 < BrandonW> Yeah, you get none of that. 22:59 <@Andy_J> dang. 22:59 < BrandonW> You get registers, RAM, Flash, and...hardware ports. 22:59 < BrandonW> That's it. 22:59 < Kurt_> That's totally gay 22:59 <@Andy_J> well you CAN use all that other stuff but you have to go through the OS to do it. 22:59 < Kurt_> I don't see how anyone can use it 22:59 < BrandonW> That's the basis for how all computers work. 22:59 <@Andy_J> And no, it is neither homosexual nor happy. 22:59 < Kurt_> ugh 22:59 < TheStorm> I think Tari wrote a day 0 to help setup the dev enviroment 22:59 < BrandonW> You're not a real man until you do assembly. 22:59 < TheStorm> ^ 22:59 < Kurt_> Yeah yeah, I know 23:00 < Kurt_> But seriously 23:00 < Kurt_> This is all but unusable to me. 23:00 < mokomull> I love how I'm the only person in my computer organization class who's done assembly before. It's great :D 23:00 < BrandonW> It may seem that way at first. 23:00 < Kurt_> The idea of writing a shell, or even Desolate in it, is nigh unthinkable 23:00 < TheStorm> I was cracking up in my COEN class when my Prof was explaing op codes 23:00 < BrandonW> mokomull, I loved my assembly language class in college...people were confused all to hell. 23:00 <@Andy_J> It really isn't all that hard. It's just different. 23:00 < BrandonW> The teacher was an old IBM assembly language programmer. 23:00 < BrandonW> He and I got along great. 23:00 < mokomull> And we're doing MIPS, too, not something wacked up like z80 or x86 :) 23:01 < Kurt_> My C++ teacher was an old COBOL/FORTRAN programmer 23:01 <@Andy_J> we did AVR assembly in uni 23:01 < Kurt_> wait, z80 is wacked up? 23:01 < mokomull> About 10% of my C++ class was Bjarne Stroustrup :D 23:01 < Kurt_> also, it said that ROM calls are not good to use 23:01 < BrandonW> There's nothing wrong with z80 or x86. 23:01 < TheStorm> ^ 23:01 < mokomull> Kurt_: z80 is very restrictive as far as which registers you can use where. 23:01 < BrandonW> ROM calls are fine, there's just a little overhead in calling them so you don't want to use them in really time-sensitive situations. 23:02 < Kurt_> So there's a very small number of what you would call, variables available? 23:02 -!- Randomist [~winterven@216.117.122.209] has joined #tcpa 23:02 < efneTI92> [Randomist] CAUTION: Exposure to this user may cause neurological damage. 23:02 < Kurt_> Or should I just try and practice using pointers in C++ to get used to it? 23:02 < TheStorm> Kurt_, you can "define" your own varables in free ram and within your own program 23:02 < mokomull> Kurt_: Just jump off the deep end and go through an assembly tutorial 23:03 < Kurt_> I wish I had that kind of time 23:03 < BrandonW> There's a limited combination of what registers you can use in what situations, that's what can make it hard to learn. 23:03 < BrandonW> Some registers have specific purpose. 23:03 < Kurt_> I'm in my senior year of high school 23:03 < BrandonW> purposes.* 23:03 < BrandonW> It wouldn't make sense to use AF as a 16-bit pointer, for example. 23:03 < Kurt_> Schoolwork is a bitch, and I don't know how much longer I'll be using my 84 23:03 < TheStorm> Kurt_, thats the same time I learned 23:03 < Kurt_> Really? 23:04 < BrandonW> I learned in high school, too. 23:04 < Kurt_> How old are you now? 23:04 < TheStorm> not that I've doen anything useful with my knowledge 23:04 < TheStorm> 18 :P 23:04 < Kurt_> .... 23:04 < TheStorm> I'm a freshman in college now 23:04 < Kurt_> You still do programs? 23:04 < TheStorm> yes 23:04 < Kurt_> I'm just worried that i'm just gonna ditch the TI scene 23:04 < TheStorm> Kurt_, your point? 23:04 < Kurt_> And not be able to learn ASM before that 23:05 < TheStorm> so, give it a shot 23:05 < TheStorm> I see no drawbacks 23:05 < mokomull> I never really got into it until here recently that I've really started learning about computer organization and things, and I don't even have a TI calculator anymore :D 23:06 <@Andy_J> I don't suppose anyone has a copy of the puzzle definition for prime_bits laying around anywhere?
