If Jason_gee has one major concern it's definitely time to panic!!! :-) It's worse than that! I only have 15 beers left! "Living by the wisdom of computer science doesn't sound so bad after all.

What happened to "to each according to his needs"? |

Dont' even ask, we have "democracy" here now :P |

No, the correct answer is "It sold out to free market capitalism". "Democracy"? Is that as in "consumer choice"? I can give you any number of examples of capitalist "consumer choice": like the postal service, where the sender chooses the carrier and the recipient has to chase incompetent delivery drivers round the county. Or the railroad "Passengers' Charter", where the trains run on time but leave the passengers waiting at the stations. Do you need an emergency shipment of George Orwell? |

Has anyone heard if and when we can display results and computer tasks again? Classic WU= 7,237 Classic Hours= 42,079 |

Well then. I'm getting work when I ask for it. Actually, when I was on AP-only, I ran out of work and couldn't get the random luck to work out and feed me, so I threw the MB app_info back into the project folder and first work request got 23 MBs, and then a handful of 2's until I was full. However, looking at the server page now, looks like the splitters have burned through all the MBs already. By the way, I was getting the "your app_info..blahblahblah" "error" as well, but mine was because I really didn't have any MB entries at the time. :p Don't think that counts.

Has anyone heard if and when we can display results and computer tasks again? I expect it will be corrected at least by the next Tuesday outage. I'm pretty sure it is only a display problem caused by the change in descriptions in the Application field of the Task records (last column), and that the underlying data in the database is intact. I have had tasks in work units that originally displayed correctly, then had the curtailed display, but have since been validated even though the display is still curtailed. Keith |

There are some downloads about but the 100 unit limit is still in force I had 1 machine that was totally out of units and had no uploads pending. When I updated SAH, it scored 120 units (all GPU) and then the 100 unit error kicked in. Brodo |

What now brown cow? Why is the thread listed as Panic mode, versus Problem mode? This is a constant problem, with Berkley {Berkeley?> whichever spelling you prefer} going off line, I thought that with "Distributed" Computing, that, perhaps, there would be multiple computers as backups. Such as, ok one unit lost power, there are 42 other units with the puzzle info, still online. ;) Lee cavemanmoron New Message on the Front Page: |

... Because the original versions of this thread were meant as stress relieving humor. The "on" term wasn't in the thread title, posters would turn panic mode on when they saw something which might cause a newbie to panic, off when everything was going smooth as silk. Joe |

It's the panic thread because every time there is a problem a bunch of people PANIC!!!! Have I done something wrong? Why won't my computer get new work? Did someone drop a bomb on Berkeley? :-) It would be great if they had multiple back up computers but they barely have enough money to keep the ones they do have running. This project is run on donations. Occasionally one of the big computer manufacturers will donate some equipment but it is usually stuff they would like evaluated or refab stuff they don't need anymore or don't know if it even works. Berkeley only provides space for SAH to set their equipment and provides some of their bookkeeping and a bit of webspace for them.(For which they take a small percentage of SAH's donations.)They do not provide any funds for this project.SAH is working on a shoestring and always have been.
