A call to arms!

Arcturius · 08-12-2004, 10:30 PM

I realize we're a community of slackers...but why are only 18 of us putting up points on DF?
We've probably got some of the fastest non-clustered PCs on the planet;
we're not saving our clock cycles for that 'someone special,' are we?...

Chew_Toy · 08-12-2004, 10:57 PM

Well I have 10 PCs running F@H so my cycles arent going to waste atleast.

Nightfall · 08-12-2004, 10:58 PM

If we don't get some people folding out there we are going to loose rank overtime

Hell, I put up almost as many points in 24 hours as everybody besides Arcturius combined... we need people to start folding again....

Doing my damnedest!

It's like a bad horror movie: with Nightfall rushing closer, the geek turned away and ran as fast as possible. But there was no escaping.

Certainly there must be some machines at work you can set up to fold

edit: my current 1.5m for 24 hours is about to go up, just got 4 of my celerons and my duron folding again having all been down a week or so

Groth · 08-13-2004, 01:50 PM

I've two AthXPs and an old slot-a Athlon folding. The big wad of points was from buffered gens being uploaded, happening again right now, too.

Friends?

hehe

msv · 08-17-2004, 04:26 AM

Hmmm... This Forums member list spans over of 206 *pages*. We could definetely do better than we are ATM. Unfortunately I only have access to two puts, but both are folding.

Edit: Clarification of what member list

nikhsub1 · 08-17-2004, 11:19 PM

Well I've got 115 machines folding but for a different team, my cycles never get wasted

pHaestus · 08-18-2004, 01:29 AM

I'll try and put another few PCs on the team. I don't like to run all my home PCs when it's hot though. We don't have AC

montyt · 08-18-2004, 02:08 AM

been folding for some time now 2 sometimes 3 atherlons 1 of them 24 *7

under alias thompsm2

Boli · 08-18-2004, 01:03 PM

No A/C? *gasp* /me hugs his AC unit and praises the 66F setting

Is electricity more expensive in other parts of the world? My bill usually stays in the $95-125/month range, and that's with electric heat/AC/water heater and 3 Athlons on 24x7, and a Celeron and P4 part-time.
The TV may as well not have an ON/OFF switch, either...

And that's a good thing? My power bill last month was $21 and the month before $16. When I had all 5 comps on DF it was averaging $60 a month.

But anyway, I am still out. All my DF crunchers are no more. Not enough cash on hand to rebuild right now.

jaydee · 08-19-2004, 08:37 AM

I threw my main rig into the mix for a bit. Can't run it 24/7 though.

You already have the best protein folded with just that one machine

:shrug: No idea; that's what it has always been, so I never thought much about it. Let's see...1000kWh/month...722.4hr/month...I'm drawing about 1.38kW on average...16A (RMS) continouous sounds a little off...
Did I mess up my calculations somewhere?

Damn turn off the oven man!

Here is a pic of my current power bill.

Bigmack · 08-19-2004, 04:35 PM

You guys need to quit your complaining!!!! My bill averages $225.00 - $250.00 per month during the summer and around $180.00 in the winter!! (three bedroom house in south florida)

Bigmack · 08-19-2004, 04:38 PM

But the real question here is do you want to fold for Procooling with that barton of yours

Bigmack · 08-19-2004, 06:36 PM
