draft
With the help of my mysterious admirer, Ken Perlin and Supermicro support (thank you BN!), I am slowly building out my little lab here. Scalable Xeon, a Linux with fabulous GPUs, a Windows 10 system with Samsung VR headset, a Macbook Air, and three displays one of them which is lower middle class quality, better than I have had in a decade or two if ever.
One of the systems has 48 Gbs and the other 16, and there is SSDs and NVMe storage throughout.
It is astonishing how much better my work is with decent resources.
But there is a gotcha and it makes me laugh.
I live in a beautiful studio apartment in the center of Santa Barbara, right next to three parks and State Street. Its a garden. Across from the University Club. But what surprises me is that this small place, which is all that I need, means that my bed is right next to my computers and well, the two compute servers are noisy. Sometimes it matters and sometimes it doesnt.
Yes earplugs can help, up to a point.
Strange what a few fans will do.
