From what mum found in the kitchen just now, at least one of our cats is still a capable mouser. 00:04:55, 2016-08-17

If Red Dwarf attempted an aero-braking manoeuvrer around Earth, it would appear about 6cm long (at arms length) in our sky. 14:33:11, 2016-08-17
@thepandalion They removed the personally interesting parts (multiplayer) in favour of the technically interesting parts. :/ in reply to thepandalion 14:35:21, 2016-08-17
@skipai Original RD is either 5 or 6 miles long, depending on source. An Imperial Star Destroyer is just under 1 mile long. in reply to skipai 14:36:49, 2016-08-17
@skipai When you you factor all that in getting there, actually colonising another planet is pretty pointless. Just build a bigger ship. in reply to skipai 14:45:16, 2016-08-17
Pc back up. Watching the northbridge temps again. The clamping force seemed really weak. 20:23:58, 2016-08-17
Temps seem slightly better currently but are rising slowly. I should try a DVD rip… 20:25:53, 2016-08-17
wtf? PC suddenly super loud. Like another fan switched in some nowhere. Way louder than before. Have I damaged something? 20:29:20, 2016-08-17
I think that cheap cardslot cooler must have a temp sensor integrated. It kicked in like a jet engine. 20:31:33, 2016-08-17
Upside, the northbridge temps aren't passing 85c under full load. Graph suggests it's plateauing. 20:32:34, 2016-08-17
There's obviously some fine tuning to do, but it looks like I can get 100% processing capacity from this machine now. 20:33:29, 2016-08-17
Tomorrow I will cut holes in the motherboard tray so I don't have to dismantle the entire PC every time I tweak a heatsink. 21:55:18, 2016-08-17
