Big mess of wires.


PS: I had a pic of a fairly modern CPU that someone hand-soldered each pin to a thin wire and that was then attached to holes on the mobo. can't find it now (it's prolly on my other computer). anyone have it?

When you realize how simple everything really is though it becomes a lot less impressive on its own. It's still the most advanced technology we as a species are capable of but the craftsmanship behind homebrew stuff is much more worthy of respect than something ultimately designed through incremental advancement and built by a pre-programmed set of simple rules.
>>
>>58671255
Depends if the capacitor exploded or not. Caps exploding can be seriously powerful. Even the small ones. I have blown up a few in my time and if I had my hand on them when they did, I know I would have easily lost a finger.

Again, depends. If you have 20+ volts going to them, the explosions can be pretty loud. They can pop like fireworks.

its directly realated to the size of features on the substrate. If you can make a gate smaller, you can have smaller transistors, if you have smaller transistors you can fit more on a processor.

Not a hippie. But the disposability of it all makes it so that people don't value technology anymore.
Kids right now don't value computers like we did because smartphone/tablets/notebooks/desktops are cheap as fuck and people just buy new ones like they're buying new clothes.
And this isn't happening to electronics only. I'm a high school teacher and I see a tendency among teenagers where everything is so cheap, abundant and disposable that they don't care about anything anymore, be it friends, sex, objects and even education itself.
Most students I talk to don't even consider going to college anymore since around here with our public education, anyone can get a degree if they want.

Do you know what that phrase means? it means that the industry's first choice is someone who actually knows what they're doing. The leftovers become teachers. your stupid little opinion is irrelevant, you aren't going to change anything with it. most teachers I know are insecure hippie losers who just want a last chance to have some control over some kids.

>everything should be more expensive like my inability to buy anything so that people value stuff more like me
>kids today!
>laptops should be more expensive and shitty like how I had it because I was poor at the time
>too much choice is bad

Regardless of field, one of my favorite things about hippies is how they completely freak out when faced with too much choice. We have too much food, and too much time, so you see anti-gmo and anti food tech shits. Too much technology, so we have to limit what we have. Hippies are self imposed neo-luddites of the worst kind.

>too much choice

kek, such drivel.

The point isn't too much choice, you moron. The point is that people throw away perfectly good tech because of fashion reasons. They are so dumb that they don't understand the things they throw away are perfectly usable, sometimes even better than the new shit they buy. I saw someone literally bin a perfectly fine 2nd gen i5 in favor of a new chromebook. If that doesn't make you want to punch someone you shouldn't even be on this board tbqh.

Also, I'm not the teacher, your samefag detection skills are shit.

yes it certainly was and not at all "We must eliminate tech and choice". Hippies don't get to make decisions like this, people at private companies do because they are the best in their field. Hippies only make it worse for everyone else falling for their "old ways" shit. You're only a step away from becoming an SJW with this "we must change society to suit my retarded needs". Hippies are the result of the "me" generation being taught their opinion matters for no reason. no matter what you say or do, it's not going to change because it's a stupid idea.

I just feel bad for those highschool kids having to suffer through the luddism.

According to the theory:
-entire universe is inside hollow earth
-as you go out into space, you get smaller
-sun's light rays bend around in a circle and just only go one way to let the other half have night
-outside the shell there is absolutely nothing
-none of your science or tools can detect this because the universe is warped this way so when they try to detect it, their measurements have to exist inside this medium and will be reported as such

Hollow earth/inside out earth theory is like if all the religions and theories in the world were in a classroom and this one still had to be a special snowflake and be extra retarded just for contrarianism.

Flat earther is a genius compared to hollow earth because you have to break the physics or claim they're different for the entire universe, not just what's here.

First thing you have to ignore is the pure size of it all. It shows how blatantly they never even thought about it, they basically just think the universe and stars are just a painting just for looks or something.

model to show the size went something like this
>If you took the earth down to 1 inch size the closest star after the sun would be 50,000 miles away on the same scale

This sort of logic is like if you play an old videogame and the sky box is just 3 textures. Sure they must have modeled it after real life, it's just painted on or something. It's really, really, really, really big. Or if you believe their shit, it's really, really really really small.

While we're on the topic, most of the moon landing fake proofs have to do with hippies completely forgetting how the exact same light from the sun works on the earth. For example, on the moon, there's these things called "hills", and it causes the shadows to appear misaligned.

Moon conspiracy theorists are basically flat earthers except only for the moon.

As you can see, the astronaut is on the shadow side of the lander, so he should be dark. However, he is not, so therefore the moon landing was faked and you should dumpster dive at thrift stores for old shitty tech because I know more than engineers at modern companies. By the way, reflective surfaces are a government conspiracy along with the fact that the lander is also lit up on its shadow side. Shadows just like, make everything dark, or something. There are no reflective surfaces just like how there are no computers made after 1985 because I'm a piece of shit, so he should be dark in this picture just like how it is in my house because power bills are conspiracies too. Fuck you. Whenever you say "reflective surface", I only hear "old shitty amiga".

The lunar rover was made in less than two weeks and made to be folded inside a triangle corner of the lander. This is another way of saying it was made completely out of amigas. See, there were these super cool old hippie computers that I don't really remember anymore, sooo the rover was completely made out of them. This means you need to throw your workstation out right now and burn your house down and go jerk off on amiga plastic.

The lunar lander was not made out of amigas or cool old computers because it would have been so cool that it would have frozen in space and they all would have died. They also would probably not want to come back to earth because everything here is just shit and there would be less amigas/cool shit back here. The astronauts are still there, using amigas or something, that's how you know computers nowadays are shit because kids are using them and having fun and I can't because I'm a hippie fuck load faggot oh god. By the way, you know they don't make cars like triangles because then they would be too good.

Quantum computing will never replace good old transistors. The one big thing about quantum mechanics is that observing the state of a particle changes it. Also, it's really hard to set the value of a qubit due to some superposition BS. This means it's impossible to copy data, or do most computery things. At best it would make a cool coprocessor.

>you don't know shit about electronics
please, go ahead, tell me how putting inductance between a high-frequency chip and its decoupling caps makes it perform well, or how changing the impedance of the lines isn't going to cause reflections of the signal, or how screwing with high-speed differential signal lines isn't going to ruin the signal integrity and how signals from adjacent differential lines aren't going to interfere with each other

you are a fucking retard

crawl out of your mom's basement, get a master's degree in electronics and when you figure out how stupid you are, contemplate suicide

Boo hoo, why so butthurt?

I like how you are so delusional you actually think you have a degree in electronics and you have insecurities living at your parents probably at high age that you have to reflect those insecurities on others.

Eat a dick and blow your brains out you useless piece of shit, I bet your parents are real happy to have a autistic fuck as you for their child.

uhm yes? at the time of slot 1 motherboards I used to build low profile cases and used self made slot 1 raisers for the cpus, literally just ata wires, never had problems

i like how you've been proven that you don't know shit and still try to convince yourself that maybe, just maybe, you aren't actually that stupid

Shit bait anon, not everybody is a tech illiterate on /g/, some people actually work in the field, while you obviously are either challenged or still young.

lol

>>58686427
weren't those CPUs on their own separate PCBs?
it's the same thing with pci express risers, flat cables and properly handled differential pairs aren't going to mind the extra distance, even though the data rates on those are immense
lifting a BGA is a different story altogether
>>
>>58686514
pci-e risers have ground between each data line
my slot 1 risers didn't and didn't have any problems, so why should it?

The short distance, low frequency and power, it should be no problem.

You are like one of those buttblasted fags that will deny the possibility of something just because it's written on paper by someone with the letters DR before their name.

Just like the faggot who said you CAN'T, he said, physically impossible, just won't work, no way, swears, that you can't format a HD floppy into a DD one and actually carry data with it, just because it was written in a paper and he has actually never even seen a floppy in his life.

That wire would be carrying high voltage though and he said it would give you a nasty shock, not kill you.

About 200 MB best case without hacking straight into the heads and with of the shelf hardware
Though iirc some companies made hardware able to do 2 GB per tape, and D-VHS held 24 GB back in 1999

To think that I bought mine 11 years ago, the battery lasts less than 30 minutes without doing anything and the disk is so slow the PC can get stuck working with 2 word files.

is that a VGA port hanging in wires?

>>58689907
disk is that slow, because after all these years files and free space are fragmented more than pan am flight 103

Of course if you're going to do this you actually are going to hack straight into the heads, and you're going to end up storing around 650MB.

If you have an CD with the AAA designation (rather than AAD, ADD or DDD) from the very early 1980s, the glass master was probably created from an intermediate sampled copy on VHS videotape.

PAL or NTSC, either worked - look it up. The Red Book actually mentions it at one point, it's why 44100Hz was chosen - it is a common multiple of 525 and 625 so divides cleanly into the number of lines you had available.

Obviously this was horrible and they moved off it as soon as they could.

>>58685501
I've done similar things when doing glitch and side-channel attacks (the chip whisperer is a godsend).

Capacitance, etc is a bitch, but if you're running something slow (and the kinds of thing you do glitch attacks on can usually be run slow enough), you can make it work a bit sometimes, and that's Good Enoughâ„¢. You'll want to have a few spares handy.
>>
>>58693161
Ah, correction - they didn't actually use every line: 245/field in NTSC, 294/field in PAL. And the actual machines used different proprietary formats anyway because of course they did.

It is a horrible set of formats and I'd be surprised if any original readable masters in it survive to this day.
