All I got from those videos is that babies are retarded.
Also, apologies to silver surfer. Sorry I mixed you guys up. I am not a happy camper this morning ![]() Ok, I ran for a while on the treadmill ... took a shower ... had some breakfast ... I feel better now! This is how you will feel when you actually complete a “valid” AC@H work unit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5P6UU6m3cqk This, when it turns out to be “invalid”. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZT0uaqt_2Dk Join MOT today!! ![]() |

I agree Dataman, who gives a $hit about the weather in Africa? Right now my system exclusively crunches for FightAIDS@home. I'm thinking that I might expand at some point to do work for the rumoured to be coming cancer project since my grandmother died of cancer. It's hard for me to understand the point of some of these projects. For me, the ones that really NEED computer power are the ones listed under "Biology and Medicine."
I sincerely doubt the urgent needs of the "The Rectilinear Crossing Number Project." This one is even more ridiculous - "Our goal is to implement the prime testing software used by the Riesel Sieve Project under the BOINC system. The project's goal is to prove that 509203 is the smallest odd k where for every n >= 1, k*2^n-1 is composite. Currently, 70 of the original 101 k's that were left when Riesel Sieve started remain. Primality testing is being done on n values around 2.3 million right now, or 650000-700000 digits." I'm willing to donate my CPU time and electricity for noble causes, but these are kind of ridiculous! YEA DATAMAN! You'll have your MOT million as well by Christmas and two by spring. Of course, that new machine coming will only speed that up too! ![]() Not if I keep running ACH@H WU's I am 0 for 3 (two different machines) ... all invalid. I really did not sign up to be a beta tester for that project!!! I have another one right now. If this one is not good, I'm going to opt out of the project. I'm not all that sure I care what the weather is in Africa.On the other hand, the DDDT 201 WU's run so fast you don't even notice them. That is what has inflated my results. Otherwise 44 would not be mathmatically possible with my machines. I see there is a lot of activity in beta right now. I certainly hope that they actually test this new project before they roll it out. The new machine should be here early next week but right now I ready to drown all 8 of them in Lake Tahoe I am not a happy camper this morning ![]() |

However having said that, my commitment is to WCG and IBM (with which I had a long, non-employee relationship). I run what they put up unless it is "buggy" or I have some "personal difficulty" with the project.BTW Jonathan, I have a "pet elephant". You can find it here:http://www.saleen.com/s281_sc_convt.htm Although mine is a 2004 and the shapley young lady is not an available option. It hybernates from October to March but is a lot of fun in the summer. Top end is 162.Cheers! ![]() ![]() |

Greetings everyone! It does look like we have "pushed it up a notch" as we seem to be coming in above the 150,000 points per day level now. I am sure we will have some off days here and there but hopefully we will continue moving upward! The number of members returning a result each day also seems to be running up in the 60's again. That is a nice feeling. Jonathan, you can add an image tag with gahood.org/H025.jpg in it to your signature now. Congratulations on hitting your first points milestone!
---------------------------------------- It is hard to imagine 30,000 results. WOW. Great work marysduby! Great work everybody!! |

Funny how many people are just afraid of the software or suspect some devious conspiracy to do bad things. I guess it is the nature of the world today. Better day tomorrow! Cheers all. ![]() ![]() |

I guess it is the nature of the world today.![]() Mate, I gave up attempting to recruit new members some time back because the degree of apathy that I encountered was astounding. Everyone wants something for nothing these days, but the majority of people simply can't be bothered making the effort to improve their own lot. I'd rather have a bad dog than a good human being. Call me a cynic if you want. ![]() |

Wouldn't ya know it? I just tried to take a few photos of the clan kids for Halloween, only to discover that the friend I loaned my digital camera to a few weeks back had broken it without saying a thing about it - seems he bounced it off the hotel foyer floor and wall, but forgot to mention it.
AAAARRRGH! See what I mean about rather having a bad dog than a good human being. |
