Yes, Capt. Joe, my "devices" are a laptop which I also used ages ago with 2 kernels, a Sony smartphone with 8 kernels which will double as gloves come winter, and my pet Sony, Mr Jones, with just 1 kernel which got a second life thanks to Halo Jones' instructions, and which chews without producing any noticable heat. Not exactly an army of trailblazers, but, no, I'll not get discouraged. I'm happy for every WU flying back, and the original idea is to use spare cycles, right?
My vocal cords transformed into writing are fairly high end, tho'  |

My vocal cords transformed into writing are fairly high end, tho' Yes, same here. Though I do have a few higher end machines crunching every CPU cycle counts. An army of androids and low end intel atom processors crunching in these little stick pc's is a lot of power in a very small footprint, really. Amazing what technology these days can accomplish compared to even 5 years ago.
Crunching for the betterment of human kind and the canines who will always be our best friends.
AWOU! |
