1) Message boards : Number crunching : Odd Triplets (four bars) (Message 2015164) Posted 12 Oct 2019 by PKII Post: Thanks for that answer. I usually run Seti@home using my GPU but its been giving me a lot of blue screens of death lately so went back to just using my CPU. Never noticed them before.
2) Message boards : Number crunching : TBar, HELP!!! (V 0.98b1) (Message 2015021) Posted 11 Oct 2019 by PKII Post: I have a GTX 1050 I think its just going bad. I stopped using my GPU for Seti@home until I can get another one. I know that doesn't answer your question but It least you have one reply.
3) Message boards : Number crunching : Odd Triplets (four bars) (Message 2014902) Posted 10 Oct 2019 by PKII Post: I've been noticing an extra (I don't know the word for it) but a triplet with an extra one. Four raised bars instead of the normal 3 with green tips. The last bar is raised but no green tip. Most of the ones I've seen have been in the October 2019 work. Anyone else notice this?
4) Message boards : News : Download server glitch (Message 1983639) Posted 6 Mar 2019 by PKII Post: How about offering an incentive plan for donations. I hear a lot of people on here wanting more WU's. :)
5) Message boards : Number crunching : GTX 1660 thread (Message 1983392) Posted 4 Mar 2019 by PKII Post: Well it has been crunching OK overnight, thought I would do a quick "non scientific" look at the figures. The 1660 replaced a 1060 and the 970 is in my other machine. I have done a quick average of the last 20 tasks done by my three cards (not including AP or shorties) and these are the times: GTX-970 - 6.4 minutes/task GTX -1060 - 7.3 minutes/task GTX-1660 - 4.5 minutes/task snip The interesting thing is the power consumption, 92 watts verses 125 watts. This is the interesting "non-scientific" data that I am interested in. This implies that the watts per task is significantly lower. I wonder how that compares to the RTX series? I was thinking of getting the 1660 but I can live with my rather long times of 14 or so minutes/task with my 1050.
6) Message boards : Number crunching : Don't know where it should go? Stick it here! (Message 1983052) Posted 2 Mar 2019 by PKII Post: Noticing a few downloads lately that get stuck and won't download after many tries....I've been just aborting them. : /
7) Message boards : Number crunching : Anything relating to AstroPulse (2) tasks (Message 1982932) Posted 1 Mar 2019 by PKII Post: I had one but it would never download.... : (
8) Message boards : News : Little bits of previously unfinished data. (Message 1977312) Posted 27 Jan 2019 by PKII Post: If 12 year old never processed data contains a signal ... Someone is going to be really pissed. Only if there was an expiration date for a reply.
9) Message boards : Number crunching : User achievements thread......... (Message 1918270) Posted 11 Feb 2018 by PKII Post: Wow! I barely have 2 million. I was just thinking that we all know that it will be that one person who gets his/her first credit of their first unit of work that finds ET....
10) Message boards : Number crunching : Norton and newest Boinc (Message 1841451) Posted 11 Jan 2017 by PKII Post: Ok. This is the first issue I've had with Norton finding a Boinc or Seti issue. Thanks.
11) Message boards : Number crunching : Norton and newest Boinc (Message 1841367) Posted 11 Jan 2017 by PKII Post: I had to disable Norton Internet Security to install the lastest BOINC 7.6.33 since then I've been gettting errors and today Norton quarantined it. " Filename: setiathome_8.00_windows_intelx86__cuda50.exe Threat name: WS.Reputation.1Full Path: c:\data\boinc\projects\setiathome.berkeley.edu\setiathome_8.00_windows_intelx86__cuda50.exe" Anyone else get this? Why do people keep paying for such a piece of software crap after all these years? :-O Cheers. Which piece of crap should I use?

13) Message boards : News : Arecibo still threatened with closure. (Message 1797608) Posted 20 Jun 2016 by PKII Post: Not to many signing the petition. I bet most people don't know what the Arecibo Observatory does. Maybe add to the description that it also searches for Extraterrestrial signals if we don't get 100,000 signatures.
14) Message boards : Number crunching : account tasks incorrect (Message 1784735) Posted 4 May 2016 by PKII Post: So how do I remove the 100 "ghosts"? I'm almost done with the 37 I actually have.
15) Message boards : Number crunching : account tasks incorrect (Message 1783997) Posted 1 May 2016 by PKII Post: Finally there are "ghosts", tasks that the server has sent to you, but have never arrived, these tend to happen when there is problem with the connection between your computer and the server.... I believe "ghosts" better explains my issue. Thanks.
16) Message boards : Number crunching : account tasks incorrect (Message 1783945) Posted 1 May 2016 by PKII Post: Right now it shows I have 3 AstroPulse at my account tasks display online. I rarely even get one. These do not exist in my boinc program running right now. I've never had this happen before. 4896233520 2143087102 7567137 29 Apr 2016, 5:15:28 UTC 24 May 2016, 5:15:28 UTC In progress --- --- --- AstroPulse v7 v7.10 (opencl_nvidia_100) windows_intelx86 4896233540 2143093656 7567137 29 Apr 2016, 5:15:28 UTC 24 May 2016, 5:15:28 UTC In progress --- --- --- AstroPulse v7 v7.10 (opencl_nvidia_100) windows_intelx86 4896233579 2143093657 7567137 29 Apr 2016, 5:15:28 UTC 24 May 2016, 5:15:28 UTC In progress --- --- --- AstroPulse v7 v7.10 (opencl_nvidia_100) windows_intelx86
17) Message boards : Number crunching : account tasks incorrect (Message 1783394) Posted 29 Apr 2016 by PKII Post: Today(yesterday) I haven't been able to get any tasks so I logged in the website to see what it said under "account" and it said I was in progress 100 tasks but I had none in the boinc program. Tonight I pressed reset project and I finally got the 100 in boinc but now it says I am "in progress" of 200 tasks under my account which isn't correct.
18) Message boards : News : More on that weird Kepler star (Message 1751706) Posted 25 Dec 2015 by PKII Post: I just watched this video on YouTube and I had a thought maybe it is not a Dyson Swarm or Comets. Maybe it is just years of space junk. ; ) https://youtu.be/wPXCk85wMSQ
19) Message boards : SETI@home Science : The Most Mysterious Star in the Galaxy (Message 1739377) Posted 3 Nov 2015 by PKII Post: This would be a good time to create a crowdfunding campaign for research to study the star KIC 8462852. no you don't! just need to program K2 mission to give a RED ALERT, when KIC 8462852 start dimming again... so we have to see patterns in dimming 1st... then, we have to watch the object in just as patterns begin... and finally then - we can figure out what's it out there?! ;) Cool. We need another Kepler mission. Anyone know of any plans to send another one. This one worked out well even after it broke. : )
