    Personal news that is very hard to share

    After reading your stories about Damon, I'm left with one very strong feeling...that he was an uplifting example of what the best in us should look like. Loss always leaves us wondering why, along with all the human emotions that accompany it. I have had friends and relatives with...

    My Best Friend and Supporter

    Grandpa, thank-you for sharing your sweetheart's story. She sounds like a very special person that had an infinite ability to give. My wife is on oxygen 24x7 too, so your story especially hit home with me. I too look at her some days, knowing that it is a serious condition and I thank God for...

    Trying BOINC, Confused

    Erm...what he said. :D I only have (3) rigs Crunching with BoincTasks running on one of them. All (3) rigs still have BoincMgr running as well simply 'cause I wasn't sure that I would keep BoincTasks until I'd used it for awhile. What a great tool, especially for using just one PC to...

    World Community Grid

    Looks like the Network Upgrade work is done at WCG that was set to start at 10pm Eastern last night. All my rigs are functioning as usual (all uploads completed/reported) and plenty of work to do. Good job by Uplinger and the Guys at WCG...

    Linden, this may also be of use to you from the BOINC website regarding the BOINC Manager's "days of work" Preferences settings that we have been discussing. Minimum work buffer: This sets the minimum amount of work your BOINC is going to request.. It's the low water mark for BOINC, before...

    World Community Grid

    In BOINC Manager, Tools, Computing Preferences, Network Usage tab, you can set the Minimum and Maximum Work Buffers set to x.x days each. It's personal choice, but if you have no additional buffer setup (i.e. 0.0 days), then when the Servers go off the air, and if they are no longer sending out...

    Heads up, there is another "major upgrade" planned for this Saturday at WCG. If the last one is still fresh in your mind, you may want to set your WU Cache accordingly (especially if you run with 0.0 Cache setting). http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/about_us/viewNewsArticle.do?articleId=421

    Hit a WCG (World Community Grid) milestone? Post it here:

    Linden, one of the neat things about WCG is getting communications that reinforce why all your hard work makes a difference. In their "News" section, they do a good job of communicating with their donors and sharing information as to why your contribution matters. You also get a few emails...

    eFMer BoincTasks

    I created a new thread over in the DC Guides with just a brief intro and a link that points back to this original thread. That way, we can leave this thread in tact, don't have to ask a Mod to do anything and can also have visibility to it over in the DC Guides section. I have gone to the...

    BoincTasks utility, use and setup

    There was already a useful thread initiated by RFGuy_KCCO about this very useful Tool for managing and checking Tasks status of multiple BOINC Clients on your network. Rather that move pieces of that thread over into this thread, I thought it may be OK to just provide the link (below) to the...

    eFMer BoincTasks

    Thanks guys, this tool is really useful for me and I thank RFGuy for posting about it which is what led me to trying it. Wes, I'd read about BoincToolBox on the BoincTasks website and attempted to use it on my Remote Win7 PC. It would not work as described with my Firewall, so that is why I...

    eFMer BoincTasks

    Gil, I was thinking that it should be added here because I thought this was the thread on this Tool. :D Is there a way to put this whole thread into the guide section? I don't know the particulars of how things are setup here, but am glad to do whatever is best.
