Well, student "apartment" 15m^2: NOK 2450/month (electricity, water and internet included) vs NOK 7-8000 for ~40m^2, electricity, water and internet NOT included.

 

I could live in a bigger apartment where I could store all the hardware I wouldn't have money to buy :P

 

I'm going to cool a few of my folding setups by water cooling them, using a radiator in the window. Was actually going to do that in december, but I needed a few parts that took me forever toget - and still missing one or two things that will arrive shortly. No more fan noise when I sleep :D

 

Or alternative, you can find someone to do loan (house loan) at 1.1-3.5%, and get a appartment for 1 mio NOK, which would be 55-75 depending on location :)

No, the reason for that change is that it's easier for me to grab a new pair of socks when they're available in that shelf rather than if I have to open a damn door. Plus, I put some water cooling stuff inside that cupboard instead:D

WTF, you change socks!? Karl and you know how many SPI 1M you can do and submit in the time it takes to change socks!?

Have you seen the age/performance of some of the CPUs Karl benches? If he cannot change his socks hundreds (thousnads?) of times by the time 1M finishes, maybe he has mobility issues :P

electricity included?! wow I don't want to be the guy that pays your electricity bill, even if you would double up the rent :D

 

Also benching on 15m² is insane - I had 30m² (incl. kitchen and bathroom) back in hannover-days and felt like not beeing able to breath sometimes with much much less hardware in my room.

As soon as I had the money I went into 70m²+ to really feel good.

Nowadays I have 80m²+ with my GF and the benchroom is upstairs in a separated room / floor...

 

...maybe I am getting old but ~8 years ago I felt it was cool beeing surrounded by hardware all the time, sleeping right next to my Prometia Mach I cooled 3200+ Venice which was folding all the time...

Today I am often happy to close the door behind me, go downstairs to my gf, sit down on the couch and give all you nerds a byebye for some hours :P:D

I want 100m^2 at least :P But not sure if I can afford to pay NOK 3m for a decent place not too far from town.:o

 

Done submitting btw - and of course I ran just a little too few benchmarks to be able to beat Gamer, and make PURE pass the Russians:rolleyes:

I was going to say - USB stick failure in 3, 2, 1 ...

Yeah I also have 3 copies always.

 

never forget the "copy-screen-waazaa CDTWTFZOMG" to get the most out of your backups.

 

The good guy I am here is the detailed explanation, if you don't know it yet:

 

- save the original screenshot on the bench-hdd - should look like this:

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=1177&stc=1&d=1329499603

 

- copy it instantly and rename into copy1.jpg (must be done on the desktop)

- copy original.jpg to USB stick (directly in main root directory e.g. f:\)

- cut and paste copy1.jpg to USB stick (directly in main root directory e.g. f:\)

- now your score will improve quite remarkable

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=1178&stc=1&d=1329499603

 

now the difficult part for the last boost:

 

- copy copy1.jpg in the same folder and rename it into copy2.jpg

- take all 3 files cut them (not copy!) and copy them onto your c:\ directory of your laptop or allday-system

attention: this part is very dangerous because if it fails during that time you will loose everything

- COPY back everything from there to your USB stick

when you have done this you are almost save

- now copy only copy2.jpg into your c:\ and replace the existing file

- if you have done everything right your copy2.jpg on c:\ will look like this, while the last file onto the usb stick is still looking like copy1.jpg (so make sure to save it again)

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=1179&stc=1&d=1329499603
