I'm glad we "woke" XS up. Because science.

[Gilthanis]

I'm glad we woke them up because they were being slackers.

 

[SMTB1963]

With WUs available, our true opponent is Gridcoin

We at XS will still try to get your attention every once in a while...

Stay crunching my friends!

Whose got some legit hardware to donate to this project?

Hell, i'd donate.

I've thrown everything I've got on it. It's not much, but at least I'm trying.... Lols

No, as in donate hardware to the admin so he could put his poor gerbil farm operating the thing out to pasture.

I think atp1916 comment is more directed at replacing the servers the project is running on to create, handout and receive tasks.

Edit: oops we commented at the same time.

 

[atp1916]

I just find it ironic that there are ~.34 petaflops being directed at the project and it is being run on a single E5 2620 Xeon.

=P

You know there's a link on the project home page to make donations don't you?
Direct link: http://asteroidsathome.net/boinc/donations.php

Hardware you would have to contact him directly to find out what he needs.

 

[atp1916]

ChelseaOilman yeah, but I wouldn't be handing out cash...

ll email him and see what he says about hardware donations.

Edit: No email addresses found, so i dropped a post in.

 

[ChelseaOilman]

You can get work now. New tasks added. Probably to late though.

 

[10esseeTony]

Congrats on your Silver. TAAT got Silver as well, but you beat us by a couple hundred points. It was an odd race, having caught a 'good' project at a bad time.

Yes, these sprints must be very taxing for the websites that are not used to so much traffic.....
Basically organized unintentional DDOS.... lols

That's why they should get a head's up on what going to happen from day x until day y.

Rosetta at home is the sprint project for this week.

 

[ChelseaOilman]

Inside info or just WAG?

 

[motqalden]

Inside info or just WAG?

its actually announced on the site already right on schedule

 

[ChelseaOilman]

Ok, missed that. On it.

 

[MN Scout]

I got Rosetta crunching on both my computers. Yippeee!

 

[ChelseaOilman]

Again, XS is off like a rocket ship! Even EVGA is ahead of us.

 

[atp1916]

Not....... for long

 

[ChelseaOilman]

I can see this is going to be a repeat of the last sprint. In 2nd place and staying there.

Yeah we are down too many people for the summer and its hard to get excited for another sprint so fast after the last one

 

[auntjemima]

Pretty much. Didn't even realise there was another so soon until I saw this.

 

[ChelseaOilman]

Where's our cheer leader Skillz?

 

[pututu]

Probably taking a needed long summer nap

Well, this project has bountiful of tasks and no wingman, so just keep crunching for the benefit of humanity, ha ha.

 

[ChelseaOilman]

so just keep crunching for the benefit of humanity, ha ha.

Been doing that for 17 years now. You'll know when I die because my machines will be idle.

 

[pututu]

You'll know when I die

So, better crunch more bio-medical projects like Rosetta and try to outlive your current machines

 

[atp1916]

Speaking of summer, it was 100F+ today down here in the Plano, Texas area. HOT!

 

[Gilthanis]

By boxes are in transition and thus not a lot of help for a bit. Sorry guys. However, as the sprint winds down, don't forget to adjust you Rosetta project settings to only run smaller estimated runtime work. That way you can squeeze a little bit in. I normally run work with 24 hour times because it allegedly provides better science but this is a competition after all.

And in Fort Worth 100's til Tue.

I need to start an AC biz.

 

[Gilthanis]

Or just move to AZ and have a solar plantation with an underground server farm....

 

[fastgeek]

*yawwwnnnn* *blink* *blink*

Threw a few big boxes at the sprint for you guys. Not my usual soul crushing army; but it should help.

 

[atp1916]

*XS*

 

[McCHillin]

Sorry I'm late to the party...... :-(

 

[pututu]

Thanks. Need all the help we can get.

 

[pututu]

Looks like they got help from big brother Bryan (SUSA). We are up against a tag team of SUSA-XS. Two against one.

Let see if they continue that next year when we are all in league one ...
