Eve Online login window CPU hog

Posted in the evening, filed under Asides.

Eve Online has a daily system restart, and when this happens, I sometimes leave the login window open, so I can keep checking and log back in as soon as downtime finishes. However, I’ve noticed that the login screen seems to consume a heck of a lot more CPU cycles than the application itself.

Interesting.

USB1.0 is s…l…o…w

Posted early evening, filed under Asides.

Man, 12 Mbit/s is slow. I’ve got a USB 1.0 “full-speed” hub, and tried to copy across 60GB of files. In about 18 hours, that was only about 3GB copied…

So I bought a USB 2.0 hub, and that is much faster.
