Oh, well, I guess I'll just have to wait for the next one  _________________

How I need a drink, (alcoholic of course) after the heavy chapters involving Quantum mechanics.
Sorry Phred, "course" has six letters.
And I just missed it! I was typing when it happened!!! _________________ 0.0 Giggly hertzes Folding!

Hi there, my brave knights and NOT to forget, the Archbisshop himself, if you want I can define PI to tenthousend decimals. (Requires a lot of paper, though)
Thats what computers are best in: fucking calculatin, that is Erhhh sorry, for my language, won't happen again, I hope.
But who cares,
Just assigned to LEIDEN CLASSICAL, because SETI has little work, if none at all at the moment.
My host are busy, But my fatest host, only has AP (V5.03) tasks. But to little, besides EINSTEIN .
I, inmediatly, got quite alot of work, atleast!
Don' t want my Q6600 (3GHz) & QX9650 (3,73GHz), run dry, and why should I, since I don' t, directly pay for the electricity, used for these two (700 Watt)
Will also rise if equipped with GTX 280/295 cards, by 250 - 300 Watt's
They, both have put in a lot of Cobblestones for SETI, 1 year non stop, 5 million Cobblestones, with help of 3 other hosts, 16 cores total, 30 GFLOPS, Whetstone or floating point.
And some CUDA devices (GTX 280/295) on the way, if SETI or maybe, what it's called, PrimeGRID or whatever, can't seem to get in, my thick head
Hope, nobody is upset about passing, some founders and others. who have been here, years before I came bustin in, just to help
For everyone who believes that nonsense ;^)
But anything, to get us higher on the charts _________________ Fired, Wandering, Silicon Knight , STOP war & greed, N! Ni .
Currently burning:
2 QUAD's Q6600, 1 WIN (stock)XP32, VISTA stock , 1 QX9650@ 3.6GHz.WIN XP64,GTX480.
1 HP Pav LT(Leisure);C2D T2400+7400GT.
1 HP Pav Desktop:Q6600+GTS250
and a i7-2600+2x HD5870. |

|

Sorry I missed this yesterday...
So I bump into a WebSite Blog that posts: "[A]t 12:34:56 today on 7/8/9 it will be 123456789 which only happens once every 100 years. Actually it was better 6,940 days ago (that's 19 years ago for those of you without a calculator) when we passed through 12:34:56 on 7/7/90 where we had 1234567890 and so all the digits were represented."
(I believe the guy forgot to write the 8th instead of the 7th of July...)

Well if you come over to the UK next month you can celebrate it properly (with the date in the correct order - having the month before the day is utter madness).
Ni!
