1) All the Stock v7 GPU apps are Lunatics apps now!


now everybody runs optimized apps, and the credit calculation still based on the old standard 'SETI@home Enhanced' app runtimes / performance.
credits/h go down 75%
lol, im not sure to waste more energy and money with this project. plan was to reach 10,000,000. credits, but not with this conditions.

What is the point in reaching 10 million credits? Do you expect to get a free car then?
Why not just doing it for the sake of science (like most people here do)?

Eric said he'd post some details on the differences with the new app back on Thursday. I guess he didn't get around to doing it

Well... I reached 10,000,000! Where is my car?

The science is now getting better with V7. Here's to Science - not numbers!

Car???
Seti is giving away cars???

Crap, I wuz just hoping one day to get that fabled Seti toaster.
I hear it's in the mail as we speak.

Meowsigh, I wuz told that a few years back too.

How many creds do you need to replace a 1990 Oldsmobile Ciera anyway?

expect a free car... funny guy
10 million was just my target.
i waste 120€/month for the science, so i can expect at least correct credits
electricity becomes more and more expensive, so stop computing, save resources, and use the money for nice holidays

Kwitherbitchen........
My last electric bill was $620.00 US.
That's for ONE month, kiddo.

And BTW, I do not consider it 'wasted'. I am advancing one of the most dedicated and worthwhile computer projects on the planet.
You won't get any sympathy from me on THAT one.

Nice try though.

I understand, and did not mean to be rude to you......
You played that card, friend.

I am blessed with a good job, I build fire trucks for the best fire apparatus company in the world, Pierce Manufacturing.

That does not mean bills don't get a bit tight when I have to shell out over half a grand in one month to keep the freaking lights on.

I am glad that you consider the project worthy enough to spend what you can afford on it. Yes, it's a cost that is hard at times to justify. I have some friends and relatives that think I am stark raving mad.

I drive a 1990 Oldsmobile Ciera when I could perhaps have a shiny new 'Stang in the driveway. I have chosen my priorities. My 1985 Maxda RX7 'fun' car is still pockmarked from a hail storm that smacked it a few years ago because I did not have the $4000.00 the body shop wanted to fix it.

Yes, I have made choices.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_Roving_Vehicle#Wheels_and_power says Power was provided by two 36-volt silver-zinc potassium hydroxide non-rechargeable batteries with a capacity of 121 A·h each.

So be sure to bring the correct replacements, as I don't think the tow truck can get that far.

Only errors: hostid=6598140.

What is here the problem?


Could be a bad/overheating card or bad driver. My bigger concern is why the daily quotas are being reduced when the invalid results are found. That needs to be fixed.

Yeah, should have done it first. Spending too much time putting out the fires v7 started. Hopefully today I'll get to it.

Oh, no problem. I have a couple of then silver zinc thingys in my garage.
Always wondered what I was gonna do with them.

Your colo guys were asleep?

I thought that was supposed to be one of the benefits.

Jeff was unreachable, and I didn't know the magic incantations that would open a service ticket at the colo. I do now.

I suspect Jeff may be on a rampage looking for David right now.. No reason, just intuition.
