NEW YORK, 24 MAY - Between the billions of pages web
available on Internet, ce ne they are two many particular: to
mantenerle in network it is the first serveur to the world fed from
potatoes. A group of young geniuses of the computer in Great Britain
has gained a challenge been born in a pub, between a beer and the
other, and is successful to connect an old PC to 12 tuberi, taking
advantage of the elettrolitiche property of potatoes.
L or ' Spud server' (the serveur
to potatoes) maintains on Internet two pages web to the
address totl.net/spud . The minium-situated one goes
consulted but with caution: the planners, re-united under the thee
nom de guerre of ' Temple ov Lemur ', have equipped
to their serveur to feeding vegetable also of a mechanism that
prevents that too many customers at the same time visit the situated
one.
The energy produced from potatoes is not in fact sufficient
to sopportare great workloads.
F inora with potatoes some investigator
bizzarro was successful to make to work to the maximum a clock. The
English boys instead have taken to an old PC with a
microprocessore Intel 386 (a species of old Fiat ' 500 ', if
compared to the Ferrari of the modern processori), have eliminated all
the parts not indispensable hardware that consume energy and have
connected the computer, with of the electrodes, to 12 potatoes, ognuna
di.le which produce average volt of power. Only problem: the
potatoes go changed all every two days.
