Did the Mac Mini cluster running 4chan go down again?

If money wasn't an issue would you use this /g/?
>>
>>52118306
Money is ALWAYS an issue. For production machines, you could do worse. Depending on when this was built/purchased.

If this is >6 years old, you could match the computational power and throughput in 4u of dense nodes, but it wouldn't necessarily cost less

Can we impeach Hiroyuki? He's painfully incompetent.

Why did moot even sell it to him when the Yen is so weak?
>>
>>52118506
He probably got jlist credit or something
>>
>>52118506
Because he made no profit running 4chan, and someone was dumb enough to buy it off of him. He got to make money for once. Good for him.
>>
this server setup isn't such a bad idea, depending on the cost. utimately, it's all about cost.
>>
Why has 4chan been so unstable lately?

Well, you know.
>>
>>52118667
Hiro is incompetent
>>
>>52118777
I think it's fucking adorable.
He's trying so hard to English.
>>
>>52118283
Is a cluster of PS4s now.
>>
>>52118997

That's a myth.
moot wasnt able to afford ps4s.
He got a bunch of refurbished Wii Us instead.

He sold the gamepads and broke even.
>>
>>52118475
I don't mean to be rude, but holy fuck I just said if money wasnt an issue
You have infinite money. You have no spending limit. Do you buy a shit ton of Mac mini's?
>>
>>52119262
No, if money isn't an issue you buy real servers to do servery things, since even if you can get the speed you need out of those little white toasters, actual server hardware will be easier to administer and repair, and that's worth something.

Also >>52118475 is correct, it's a stupid question because there is no circumstance where money isn't an issue.
>>
>>52118475
>computational power
shit like that cluster isn't built for computational power you moron.
it's used to run automated testing on applications
>>
>>52119262
Ahh. Hum. Nope. Still wouldn't buy a ton of minis. I can get 128 cores per u with forced air cooling, proper management (IPMI) and two 10GG NICs pet node. So yeah, with money no issue, still wouldn't be buying minis.
>>
>>52119439
Which run as well or better on VMs, run on dense nodes. But you still need the computational power to run the applications. It becomes non trivial past monkey teir yet development.
>>
>>52118566
moot claims he made no money off 4chan.
yet he has a 2.5 million dollar net-worth.
I have trouble believing that he made that much money off of canv.as; which was a massive failure.
>>
>>52118777
>I don't know how and who fixed it
does 4chan even have official employees?
>>
>>52119666
it has volunteers
>>
>>52119262
You're a dumb fucking cunt. If money is not an issue, you just hire or buy some company to do it all for you. And you tell them to create it with 500x the capacity of the internet.

TLDR; your question is fucking retarded, just like you.
>>
>>52119693
MODS = GODS
can they be held accountable for intentional fuck-ups though? I probably should have asked hiroshimoot in that q&a session
>>
>>52119778
calm your tits sperglord it was just a hypothetical question
>>
>>52119339
This is 4chins, you want to do something fucking sensible? Are you fucking retarded? The only way 4chin could be better is if it was built on a cluster of raspberry pis.
>>
>>52119832
I'm now imagining Cloudflare is just millions and millions of first gen Raspberry Pi's with 4GB SD cards
>>
>>52119339
Do you not understand the concept of a hypothetical scenario? Is your imagination busted?
>>
>>52120337
Na man, Cloudflare is millions and millions of old android handsets found on designated shitting streets.
>>
>>52120372
GTFO underage fag (we have you backdoored kek)

>yet he has a 2.5 million dollar net-worth.
Not to go all wikipedia on you, but citation please?
>>
>>52120337
>>52120374
This is a glorious image.....
>>
>>52119612
Do you not know what net worth means? 4chan is worth 2.5 million, not moot.
>>
>>52123087
But then he sold it to Hiro...
