Is it finally time for 4chan's Mac Mini cluster to be replaced?
>>54749929

>>54750576

>>54750576
Did you not know this?
>>54750599

>>54750576
It's legit dude
check out this old tweet from moot (https://mobile.twitter.com/moot/status/388901949607002112)
i vaguely remember more pics of the cluster as well
they could save some money by replacing them with something cheaper and more powerful, like my shoes

If I spent a day in your shoes I'd be a fucking faggot
Damn, I miss moot shitposting on the boards.

He never posted anything while I've been here. Got here roughly a couple of years before he sold the site.

Are they at least Intel?
Why dont they get a few high powered 32 core servers?
Pro tip: 4chan actuallly runs on Oracle x86 servers. moot got a good deal when he bought MySQL replication license, and the sales exec knew what 4chan was.

The fuck, he posted plenty of shit, Q&A, etc

I got here sometime between 4chan's first and second birthday, although I didn't spend as much time here early on.
Moot did used to post a fair bit. I miss him.

4chan has several of these in a data center somewhere in New York.

An admin that interacts with us would be awesome. I remember when the cloud computing thread got stickied, Good thread.
But Hiroshimoot actually interacts more with 4chan now than moot ever has since I've been here. And he's, I know I'm relatively new, but that doesn't change my experience.
Is it still running on them?

>5 USB ports
>miniDP
Yes
>>54751079
That's a shame
>>54749929
It has been forever, that was like years ago.
>>54750850
iirc all of their servers are colocated with Quadranet
