Not that it matters or I'm even paying attention.

I'm a lowly 1 place and 1 project behind ..... not that I'm pointing that out or anything

Alez

Had a look on the project forum and it seems I'm not the only one to notice it can seriously slow down home broadband. I had it connected on 4 systems, don't know if it was running on all 4 or just 1. Not going to test it as I need a stable network just now, not really time for a science experiment.

Some info on the project from iThena Measurements

We encourage everyone to read it:

We invite everyone to visit the official OONI website:

I've had to turn this project off on my network. Haven't had time to find out, but seems to have got a lot worse since the new OONI application went live.

Well done, 46 here

PecosRiverM All nurses have a touch of " just 10 more degrees bend " in them. Bitter personal experience there. Just do the physio, hide the tears, bite that pillow and get that extra 10 degrees then they leave you alone and eventually you work like you used to :dance: I I believe it's ca...

Alez

Maybe they'll assign a very pretty nurse to help you clear the blockage :icon-wink: Unfortunately my wife ( who is a nurse ) would make me lift the slabs on the patio and dig a hole for myself. Actually, after that, she'd probably expect me to then finish myself off with the spade...... :shock: I'm...

Alez

I've been running it on one of my win machines for a while and so far, no issues. Of course, my BOINC machines don't matter. If they were to be infected, I'd simply wipe and start again. I know it's a Russian project, but it's been around a while so hopefully it can be trusted. Not sure I'd say the ...

Alez

Will know after the ultrasound. It is a blockage, just need to confirm what's causing it. Op either way at some point down the line when we actually start treating people again for anything more than sniffles. Disappointed there's not more memes and gifs. Well done scole of TSBT for stepping up to t...

Also most lumps in the anterior trouser area aren't cancerous. But they are all worth investigating and treating. Life's grim enough already without having to put up with sore 'nads. Awaiting ultrasound diagnostic ( man may make it back to the moon by that point .... ), but no real expectancy to be...

Alez

You shut down the original shout box ?

Alez

Thanks to all that read these posts. Think about it everyone as a minimum please. I wish you all the best in your lives and hope that it helps at least one reader make the correct decision.

Alez

And when I'm on the subject, same for your ladies and the ladies in your lives. I lost my aunt to breast cancer because she was too embarrassed to show her' boobs ' to someone. By the time she admitted she had ' issues ' , she was riddled and weeks later we carried her out of a church and laid her i...

Alez

Haven't been on here that much recently and will probably be a bit sporadic in the next few weeks. Basic story is that the covid vaccination hit me real hard and pretty much floored me. After the second I got Pneumonia. After the first one I hurt all over, but as everything started to get better I n...

Alez

So, we won the competition, shocked, I now

It is just mindless 'We know better what is good for you' from MicroSoft..

Perfectly sums up most big tech companies attitude.

Alez

Just over 40 hours to go , I think we may have squeaked this one

Alez

Least we would have 2 linebackers, that's a start

Aberdeenshire did have a team for years. The Granite City Oilers. We played in the British National League. No idea if they even exist anymore.

Alez

Having just watched Greenbay demolish Minnesota, covid apart, can anyone beat the Packers this year ? With Rodgers they have looked well impressive all year, is it a sure thing for the Super Bowl ? Guess 6 weeks tells us, but that's a long 6 weeks in the current climate ..... Answers here or on a po...

Alez

The following projects have been added.
Thena
The Ramanujan Machine on BOINC

gaia@home
They will go live once we start scraping the data.

Don't think we will be kicking ass quite so spectacularly on WCG to be fair.

Alez

If you want. Pick dates, time and a competition name and I'll set it up for you.

Alez

Well ex-squeeze me !!!

Alez

So we are now at 16.5K and our nearest rivals are P3DN at 0.4K. This isn't a competition, this is a massacre. Been such a hectic night at work that I am finishing a bottle of red wine along with watching the first of the Matrix series again whilst on double wages. Sometimes life isn't all so bad. At...

Alez

Some of my Primegrid were just past deadline and as far as I can tell they were all accepted along with the NFS dump.
Don't see any stats on FB, just finally the team names have appeared.

Alez

5 of the top 6 places are ours as well individually

Alez

Team over 8 million now, way to own our own competition.

Alez

I do, simply out of tasks. If FB can't get it's house in order, not my problem.

Alez

Great start to FB2022 ..... fraction of the teams in it and no stats for the first 2 hours.

Alez

Can you let me get some uploaded before you bork the server again @PecosRiverM , pretty please ?

Alez

Going by stats on post one I'm afraid you are no longer the talk of the town @Megacruncher , seems @PecosRiverM did a bit of carpet bombing as well. Bam server totally borked now and nothing on FB at all.

Alez

and if the server wasn't in enough distress, wait until that load starts flowing

to be fair, the BAM server isn't doing much better.

Alez

Looks like NFS website is down

seems to still be taking uploads though. Someone is making it creak at the seams

Alez

I've done the same on the systems that couldn't wait to see FB update. Hopefully it sorts itself out .......

Alez

I wholeheartedly agree with @Megacruncher and @davidbam
Couldn't ask for more.

Alez

Looks like the new FB website is live. I guess it's bunker drop time and hope it updates correctly.

Alez

Happy New Year to all on the team, their families and friends.
Good riddance to 2021 with some vague hope that 2022 will be better.

Alez

Also noticed that Gridcoin have denied entry to next years FB

Alez

You think some other teams are waiting until midnight ? Remember the Hogmanay Hootenanny is on UTC, FB runs on CET, so we should be able to start dumping after 11pm UK time for it to count for FB 2022. Gives a bit more wiggle room to see if the FB 2022 competition goes live at the correct time. EDIT...

Alez

3 1/2 hours until the start ...... off to bed

Alez

And we welcome you to it as always

Alez

Stats on post #1 work. Changed date to proper start time now.
Is there a grace period for uploading tasks to NFS ? otherwise I will have to dump 2 systems pretty much after midnight. I have quite a few tasks on those 2 that expire prior to 1am.

Alez

31 hours to go until challenge starts. 43 more hours of this retched year to go. Here's to a better 2022.
