no way that bedroom is wired foe that much electrical draw
I think that’s what the added power pole seen in the window is for, they just tap straight off that
ah, good observation
I guess you didn’t watch the anime. (Serial Experiments Lain)
In the story, some secret agency is running an experiment on her. Her family is fake, she gets custom, powerful hardware slipped to her by strangers, etc. So it is reasonable to assume that in that scenario that bedroom would actually be wired for that much electrical draw.
Serial Experiments: Lain-ux distro-hopping
Fuck all technology based aesthetics except for whatever it was that Lain was serving.
I just like being able to write shell scripts and fix shit myself.
Though I have accumulated a closet full of various hardware and cables which oddly comes in handy.
*occasionally. But nothing beats the feeling of seeing a cool idea for a project and realizing you have all the parts needed.
Came here for this ❤️
Alright, ive watched this anime twice and i guess im clearly missing something. What’s special about it? The animation was okay. They could have thrown in a couple of jokes to spice it up. Maybe toss a pie at the floaty girl once in a while, huh?
What’s special about it?
the reason it looks to you like it’s just part of the crowd is because it helped define that crowd, in a direction that was distinctly different from 80s cyberpunk and far more rooted in our modern reality - which is impressive considering it’s approaching 30 years old now and the internet was in its infancy at the time. it was a pioneer in visual elements and aesthetic vis a vis the web, and it’s ingrained in counterculture as its initial popularity spread on 4chan.
i’ve heard it said that lain is to autism as neon genesis evangelion is to depression, so it may also just be that you’re not the target audience.
Well at least she got a thicker matress
This could basically be “before Lain” and “after Lain” for me
What’s the source? I am 100% interested in why so many computers were acquired.
Serial Experiments : Lain
It’s one of the best animes I’ve watched. Be warned though it’s pretty weird but like in a good way
Been many years since, but it was great. Was thinking about the next version of TCP/IP afterwards.
Keep on it, I needed to watch till last episode until I understood (most)
Fair warning, it’s a weird one. I had to read a few short essays after I finished it to really get it. Highly recommend, it’s only 12 episodes so not much of a time investment
This reminds me of a relatively early Real Life Comics, wherein a character is introduced to Linux and, shortly thereafter, is seen to be building Beowulf clusters.
this is the first time I’ve heard of beowulf clusters and i like it
pc necromancy / zombie hivemind supercomputer
That comic is also how I learned about them! I’m glad to continue the legacy.
Unfortunately, I have yet to find a good way to search Real Life Comics, so I can’t find the particular strip. It’s a very different comic these days.
No way you can sleep in this room, must be so damn loud and hot in there !
White noise from the slow humming fans, perfect!
And you can wake up when your big job is done and the fans ramp down! living in harmony with the machine
Oh man, you have no idea. I’ve learnt to wake up when the noise dies, it means something’s wrong.
me when doing serial experiments (I’m using uart from a pico to a desktop)
Is this one of those five nights at Freddy games?
Based on this picture, I’m pretty sure I want to be before linux…
You don’t like living in a satacenter? 🫢
I don’t think SATA was invented yet.
😮😆
