#1 Back Again
It's been a very long time, but I've finally reached the stage where I feel I have sufficient hardware to donate a few cycles. I recently put together a nice Intel i9-13900K system with 128Gb of RAM plus an RTX 3060 128Gb box a for my personal use and I must admit I'm impressed with the responsiveness of it, even under heavy load.
Not sure I can contribute that much with only a single box, but it's good to have a little play again and maybe help out solve a few number crunching problems.
I'd like to contribute to a project that has general good to all peeps - but my knowledge is a bit lacking in that dept - Maths I can handle up to a point, Chemistry, Biology etc. I've no real clue about - I think I got some A levels in them but that was a looooong time ago!
I'm a developer at a big anti-piracy company so I usually run just a browser, a terminal, a decent IDE and a few docker images so spare cycles are always around, but till recently, I've not really had the hardware. Hopefully I'll manage to put some effort in this time around!
Slàinte mhath to you all.

Oh that's embarrassing! Oh well, can't be helped.
And no, I can't login to forums - they seem to think my email exists but refuse to send out a password recovery -- perhaps if one of the admins could have a look, I might be able to enter a discussion into how to improve crunching as my boinc acts rather wierd.

Was Inveteratus your username? If so, that account no longer exists. There have been a couple inactive account purges in the past

#10 Re: Back Again
I have the same issue, I cannot retrieve any password recovery email.
#11 Re: Back Again
I have returned yet again under the temporary user name of Peter Shane. I am crunching for the Team under the name of Cruncherf Pete but for the past two or three days I am unable to login. (Have sent email to Admins). As I am inactive I wonder if My account is purged?, or am I banned?
#12 Re: Back Again
I am back as well but can't log in as Cruncher Pete as I am marked as Inactive. Can't log in or register as The Seeker as my email is in use.

I've activated your Cruncher Pete account but you'll need to reset your password. If you have trouble email me from the email address for that user and I manually reset itThe Seeker wrote: ↑Sat Oct 12, 2024 9:50 am I am back as well but can't log in as Cruncher Pete as I am marked as Inactive.

#14 Re: Back Again
My email address for Cruncher Pete is petershane42@gmail.com I tried to reset my password but I did not get a link emailed to me under that address. I also tried using my alternative email theseeker1942@gmail.com with the same result. I have never used any other emails before.
I can not send you an email because I need to be logged in and otherwise I don't know your email address.

#15 Re: Back Again
I am running out of options. I tried to log in as Cruncher Pete and asked to change my email address password. My email address for cruncher Pete is petershane42@gmail.com. I also tried to change my password for The Seeker whose email address is theseeker1942@gmail.com. Now I am told that the user name is in use and I did not get a link for either emails.
I can not send you a message using my email as I do not know your address and or I have to be logged in to do so.

Actually, we may have issues with our forum sending emails. The other issue is the only username of yours I can find does not use either of those email addresses. I'll have to look around some more. Be patient.
