1) Questions and Answers : Web site : So how many credits does it take to screw in a light bulb? (Message 1706911) Posted 31 Jul 2015 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Well that probably isn't going to happen since I have all my cores busy but maybe one of these days I will have a Xenon 32 core. Of course I already knew the answer to the question. Just wanted to stop by and use up my apostrophes. (or lack there of)

2) Questions and Answers : Web site : So how many credits does it take to screw in a light bulb? (Message 1706547) Posted 30 Jul 2015 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Or post on the boards here? Since I see some of the same people posting at other projects with zero Rac You will find that toaster years before the extra terrestrial Or another boson before the old version of Mr Ed coming from a distant planet with life anywhere in the Milky Way.

3) Questions and Answers : Windows : Perfect Timing here again......... (Message 1459419) Posted 1 Jan 2014 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: I decided to stop by and do a few tasks here with one of my extra machines and just in time for a server update and no work to do. So I imagine as soon as the server is ready to give out the tasks I will be back doing some other Einstein or LHC's (just typing to myself since I don't even have enough current RAC to post here) Ok back to Max Planck and Alberts server for some New Year crunching......

4) Questions and Answers : Web site : Message Boards (Message 1090847) Posted 27 Mar 2011 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Just stopped by for a visit but the site says I can't post or reply to a couple old members here because I don't have the "credits" to do so. Well I admit my RAC is low since I have been busy with Einstein and a LHC project but you can tell I am not new here. So does this mean I have to run some WU's before I can say hello?

5) Message boards : Cafe SETI : A year-end update from Seti@home (Message 953793) Posted 11 Dec 2009 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Yeah I got that myself today. The attachment is the same as the email it comes with. Just for all of us special crunchers

6) Message boards : Cafe SETI : Einstein Server HAL 1965 (Message 912243) Posted 28 Jun 2009 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Well you must be related to many of my computers HAL! Over my many years here I have had HAL3000,HAL_3000,and HAL_5767 (I'm on that one right now) And I see more HAL's in the future here too! Have a Happy

7) Message boards : Cafe SETI : Einstein Server HAL 1965 (Message 912170) Posted 27 Jun 2009 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Well I hope the Einstein server comes back to life ASAP (yeah I know this is SETI) But I have to say it....happens to me every time I have a stack of them finished days before they are due.....and then this happens. Ok.......back to your regular programming

8) Message boards : Cafe SETI : King For A Day (Message 864268) Posted 11 Feb 2009 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Thanks Misfit! Well you will never catch my Seti Classic,Einstein,or LHC numbers and I will never catch your Seti II numbers or your almost 18,000 posts here Why did you stop running Einsteins? I see you are in So Cal......I just watched my LAKERS get another win and go to 42 - 9 YOW....even took my DSL a while to load your page

9) Message boards : Cafe SETI : King For A Day (Message 864191) Posted 11 Feb 2009 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Well I'm glad they email us about this or I would not have caught it this time. Many moons ago I got one of those user of the day things from SETI Classic. Must admit I spend most of the time running Einstein and LHC these days.....but when they both have a server problem I'll knock off some SETI's Just being nice and sharing all the SETI work with you

10) Message boards : Cafe SETI : Cars of Tomorrow 1950's to the present (Message 583620) Posted 8 Jun 2007 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: I wouldn't mind turning them into a Rolls or a Bentley but I tend to keep my cars forever. I have had the Oldmobile since 1979 (1970 Cutlass Supreme 455/500ftlbs torque) And my Jaguar is a 1980 that I built a GM 350 racer for and installed 2yrs ago with so much chrome you have to wear sun glasses to look at it. They only come out on a sunny day too (spoiled cars) Fast and smooth.........

11) Message boards : Number crunching : Download Failed (Message 504858) Posted 18 Jan 2007 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Well I just switched over to my dual processor machine and it loaded more no problem so I guess it has nothing to do with the server (of course I checked server status to begin with but you never know) I don't think I have had Seti on the other one since Seti Classic.....but it acts like it is loading and finishes and just keeps saying "download failed"

12) Message boards : Number crunching : Download Failed (Message 504857) Posted 18 Jan 2007 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Is this just a server problem right now or is it something else? Seti is running on one of my other machines but since Einstein and LHC are asleep I decided to run it on this one and it failed the downloads about 50 times and I tried a reset and still did the same thing........I imagine this is mentioned all the time but I will go blind if I have to keep looking for the answer so I decided to bore you with the question. Thanks

13) Message boards : Number crunching : Uploads/Downloads aren't working (Message 468503) Posted 29 Nov 2006 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: 11/29/2006 2:34:36 PM|SETI@home|Checksum or signature error for 27jn02aa.18761.5024.222162.3.15 11/29/2006 2:34:38 PM|SETI@home|Unrecoverable error for result 27jn02aa.18761.5024.222162.3.15_0 (WU download error: couldn't get input files:<file_xfer_error> <file_name>27jn02aa.18761.5024.222162.3.15</file_name> <error_code>-200</error_code></file_xfer_error>) Well that's a heck of a note! Since I finished all my LHC's and just have a few Einsteins loaded I thought I would get back to doing some Seti work and I tried several times to d/l and it got halfway loaded and then said that. No big deal but I just thought I would do some again since it had been a while and I was one of the original Seti group (and I have been snowed in all week here in the land of Bill Gates) Maybe I will check Seti Beta and see if that works. (I just tried and had no problem getting some AstroPulse Beta)

14) Message boards : Team Recruitment Center : Team Recruitment Officers Café (Message 413904) Posted 3 Sep 2006 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Actually I think you should all move your machines to my one man group because I am still tired from all the seti classic work I did in the past.

15) Message boards : Cafe SETI : Direction of the space programs. (Message 49530) Posted 27 Nov 2004 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Reminds me of when I was a kid and some New Englander said we will land on the moon and return back to Earth (and something about being a jelly doughnut)

16) Message boards : Number crunching : No doubt about it. (Message 47305) Posted 17 Nov 2004 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Yes, and a pitiful server not to get that point across

17) Message boards : Number crunching : No doubt about it. (Message 47300) Posted 17 Nov 2004 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: That is exactly what I got Steve. I did a d/l today and when it finished it would not u/l and when I went to check any LHC link on that site it gave me the same blank page with that "forbidden access" It seems that if they are still giving us data then they should at least have the server ready to u/l it. If they are out of work then they should just say so and it only takes one person there to update the page with a simple explanation instead of wasting our time with it. Reminds me of seti asking for contributions from us that spend thousands of dollars doing this in the first place. I hope the Einstein project runs better and actually does some good. If not I can use all my computers to read my email

18) Message boards : Number crunching : No doubt about it. (Message 47266) Posted 17 Nov 2004 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: Well I agree with that Mike but after running SETI for just over 4yrs and today hitting the 70,000hrs/10,713 WU mark I have to let that slide since they have over 5 million others to deal with. LHC + my dialup ISP = me staying awake 24/7 just trying to get anything from the server.........and I run 4 pc's here at home just for things like this! (LHC@home - 2004-11-16 20:50:10 - Deferring communication with project for 1 weeks, 4 days, 12 hours, 8 minutes, and 56 seconds)

19) Message boards : Number crunching : No doubt about it. (Message 47262) Posted 17 Nov 2004 by MAGIC Quantum Mechanic Post: The LHC server is one of the top 5 All-Time crashers.
