And he is doing it with three fewer processors turning in results on a weekly basis (15/18). Maybe you should mothball the K6s and upgrade. Can you you setup your net connection (office and home) to dial-on-demand and then drop the the connection after a certain length of inactivity.

Is this the sound your hard drive makes? :o

Pardon me your majesty. I dare not deign to the realm of the queen of typos.

When I left I had all of my machines crunching. When I returned 11 days later I found that my apt had suffered a power failure and none of my machines had crunched anything for a week. My machines are back up now but I've been futzing about with settings and BSODs so I don't have a good feel...

Actually he left out a "y." :P Keep taking those ESL classes.

I realize reliability is a whole other set of issues. I just loaded the first page of the G@h thread and while it took 39sec for the IE golbe to stop spinning on SF it took only 21sec from the beta site. This from a 26400 modem connection. It is actually not that bad even with all the images...

Your rig is happy with me clocker.

I also like windows. :nono:

Ah, Stories of explosive gases. In my story above, I was looking down the end of a PVC tennis ball cannon. A classmate (yes, we built it for an engineering class) had taking the cannon home to install the Coleman striker in it. He had tested the striker and cannon to ensure operability and then...

I'm seeing some new stuff on the Forum Index page: View posts since last visit View your posts View unanswered posts Of course it is possible I have been simply stunned by the magnificence of the page itself and never noticed this small part. It is, by no stretch of the imagination, simply the...

My horses are saddled and breaking wind as they run. :aok:

Re: Should we switch from the Genome@home to the Folding@hom My thoughts exactly. I get away from home for the day, and look what happens.

Indeed. It has gain new life as my game machine that resides in my bedroom. I moved the pIII850, X15 out. I couldn't take the noise while trying to sleep anymore. The 8KHA+ now lives with a Duron 950@1081 and D740X FB. Ahhhhhhhhh.

Pradeep, Now you have the excuse to switch to the SF team. You know you wanna.

Version 3.0 beta of the client is available here.

Nope. I've never brute forced my finger into a wall outlet either though. I did have this altercation involving ether, PVC pipe and a match once, would that help. Fight fire with fire. The only thing more powerful than burning electronics smell is burning electronics smell from a larger fire...

I did not mean that the results obtained from .99 would carry over into 3.0 stats. I meant that @home stats would be @home stats and it wouldn't matter which project you ran. From theFolding 3.0 FAQ: This may imply that Folding 2.0 results will not be dumped when 3 comes out. The beta will...

flagreen, If you used a PM, check sentbox area in the PM screen.

"Closing" is not the correct word. Consolidation would be more appropriate. I belive that you could run either project with the new (upcoming) client and stats for both projects are consolidated.

What??? :?:

Don't feel bad NRG. I'm also outproducing The JoJo and Cougtek in the weekly total column but I suspect version 3.0 will be out before I can catch them (Statsman indicates into August for The JoJo). They have a significant lead. I only really started with the new machines on Friday, I think...

Never underestimate the power of a good, quality typo. Ask Tannin. :mrgrn:

It may have even been in a Dell catalog.

Supposedly, he went to my high school and now attends NYU. The fact that he graduated 8 years behind me means that I've never met him. That doesn't stop people from asking me whenever I'm installing a Dell computer at a company I don't work for though. I actually like the commercial depicted...

Good. Write something up now and ours won't look so bad.

But Coug, You are not going to crunch any slower. If we jump on 3.0 right when it comes out we can be in the race from the start. No late start penalty. They also have a Mac client.

Don't forget to cc your part to me for compilation. Maybe I should have specified an upper limit to the contribution for Tea\Tannin. Otherwise, we might get the great novel in a single part. :wink: BTW, when I compile it and first post it I'm going to let you guys try to guess who wrote which...

No thanks! Ignorance is bliss.

Hmm. Must do some more sluething. . .. . .. --- ?

I think the $700 was for the RAM in the laptop.

Every even year Chattanooga has an airshow. Tomorrow I'll be down at the airport watching. I'll post some pictures in the next few days.

Yuck, even the ticks in Oz are nasty. I have no problem with ticks in general; some people are positively fanatical about never getting one on them. Paralysis is something I'd like to avoid, however.

The server time is behind by one hour. My post to "best mac apps" actually happened at ~12:54 5/17. I am EST as the server claims to be.

Some Macs used appletalk. The connector was round like ps/2 but with a few more pins. That is the extent of my knowledge on appletalk. Try google. What did HP web support say?

While this article is about hard drive testing, the data can be used to evaluate defrag software. OO defrag took,usually, more than twice as long to complete than the fastest contender. While there is no data indicating quality, speed is half the equation.

This a problem I'm also stuck with. Today's affordable digital cameras can match my SLR. So for me that means negatives or prints. And now the crux of the problem, I know squad about digital imaging. Once it comes out of the camera I'm basicly lost. My little HP 3400C seems to do a good job but...

I am pretty surprised that the fragmentation level changed after the imaging.

It appears that statsman has not updated since 00 5/13. Now I'm not sure if I can just barely see NRG in the rearview mirror or if that was yesterday. :twistd:

Not an ambient noise problem I trust.

I read somewhere that some manufacturers are "binding" the pairs to keep the twists near exact for the full length of the cable. It also seems Cat 7 [ISO Class F] is already a standard in Europe.

Solid wire cabling is cheaper but harder to work with. Usually solid wire is used inside the walls. Stranded wire cables are generally used for patch cables. That's not to say you can't use solid core for patch cables. I did, but I won't make that mistake again.

I'm eastcoast broadband and it feels faster in certain areas. The tests I ran were back-to-back loading of the second ATC page and the vseek thread. The row of smileys near the top of ATC came up slightly quicker but the whole vseek thread came up 1-1.5s quicker. This was of course after I...

10 Double click the speaker icon in the task bar and make sure you have a slider for the mic. 20 If not goto options>properties and turn it on 30 click the advanced button under the mic slider 40 turn on mic boost 50 if options not available install SB drivers then goto 10 60 evaluate usage of...

Then again Bozo, Do you think that setting was being applied to the controller or to the drive itself. In looking back over what I wrote in my last post, everything I said applies to the OS even though in my head I was thinking firmware. Thanks Pradeep.

I have only had the Bock wheat beer. It smelled tto much like rotting fruit. Blech!

There is is switch to boost the mic +10db. Have you tried that?

Barq's would do in a pinch.

Just in case you folks have as weak a dictionary at home as I do. largiloquent = grandiloquent Ok, I admit it. It was fun looking it up.

Well, I consider it abusive making me go get my dictionary.

you take the good you take the bad you take them both and there you have the facts of life, too doo the facts of life, too doo This too shall pass.
