to prove guix is suitable for permacomputing, i punish myself by installing it on pentium 4s that have been upgraded like 50cc scooters with their cylinders illegally widenedand then i stack a massive Lisp machine on its i686 scooter engineand you know, it worksLisp supremacy, bootlickers!

@vidak No C2Ds available? They'll use a lot less power to do a lot more.

@izaya does that refer to cloud compute?these machines were all donated free of charge, so i like to keep old machines going just so that they can avoid landfill

@vidak C2D = Core 2 DuoI used to have a bunch of P4 machines around - that I got for free, funnily enough - but they use stupid amounts of power for something that only barely outperforms Pentium IIIs.C2Ds are a big step up in both efficiency and performance.If power is free though I guess P4s are fine

@izaya oh yeah, i have already moved all my core 2 duos, they were so desirable for some reason xDthe aim is to squeeze as much out of this pensioner discount on power i have with the WA government lmao
