And hello to everyone who may remember me, it's been a while. I don't have the resources available to contribute, but I do stop by and see what's up every once in a while. Right now all of my boxen are devoted to running VMs related to things I'm trying to fgure out for work, studying for...

To build on to the screenshot above from Gilthanis, I'll give a little perspective from having worked in a data center for a number of years hand have been part of migrations like this. When you're moving servers, or moving data to bigger/updated servers, yes you can get that kocked out in days...

I thought you guys would find this interesting. Posted on Facebook. https://www.metal-archives.com/news/view/id/268?fbclid=IwAR2JalXZ2MbP0MuHNxAXEdKFU03vK-qqLMU6h4CaaNOVUYoqmD7MMNldzt8 Edit: I just noticed the date, so take it with a grain of salt I guess.

Not that it matters because there doesn't appear to be any work, but is there a team yet? I couldn't find one.

A lot of names in this thread I haven't seen in years. It's still all Relic's fault.

Ditto that. Don't be a stranger old friend.

A man with class and taste.

Must resist the urge to go buy new GPUs.......

The hardware in my lab is not optimized for Distributed Computing, and the work that I'm doing in the lab still needs some resources allocated but I'm putting some CPUs on to Rosetta. 16 E5-2650 v2 cores and an A4-5000 for now. If its not killing the other VMs, maybe more cores later.

Now this is a campaign that I can get behind!

While I had issue with him as a moderator, I never questioned his passion and contribution to the project over the years. RIP Tim.

Quite a reminder of how long it's been since I've been a regular contributor. Constantly chasing that next certification has all my systems bogged down in VMs, so F@H and BOINC have been tough to run.

OK guys, none of the reasons you were nominated matter at this point. Let's see the smack talk!

Come on relic, you can't just leave that as a teaser. LOL

RIP BillR.

The Internet Archive has your back. This is just a randomly selected snapshot in time. They have plenty more. https://web.archive.org/web/20080219124401/http://www.hardfolding.com/?

Nonsense. The best Mexican always comes from the dirty little hole in the wall places. And on a completely different topic, I noticed that death metal band Exmortis has submitted a strong candidate for the official [H] Theme Song. :D

The beer and tamales just aren't the same if Digital Exhaust isn't handing them out.

So if someone who won this year folded a few units under your name, that would make you intelligible to win? That's some deep ish right there.....

Well, if everyone would have voted alan2308 rather than EvilAlchemist, we wouldn't have such a broken link problem. My opponent has proven incapable of handling the links, where as my links are still pristine. This message has been paid for by the committee to continue smearing the names of...

Wow, calling each other ugly. Is that the best you can do? I'll just leave this here: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1355346

Download the workstation drivers for Windows 8.1. It's the same kernel as Server 2012R2 and the drivers will install and run just fine.

Yes, I'm aware of that. It's a long running joke on these polls.

Vote early and vote often!

But yeah, it often takes just one post. We generally have a short attention span. :D Edit: Holy crap, 10 years? How did that happen?

Yep, and I'm sure I'd absolutely clean house on any project that I set them loose on. :D

Pretty old. I've got a 8800gs, a 9800gt, and a 210. I don't game, so even those are overkill in my boxen.

For a long while, I was searching for a project that did work specifically on MS, as I know 2 different people who have been diagnosed. I found that GPUGrid is doing neurological work (lower level stuff, not targeting any specific condition). Unfortunately, the cost of admission is just too high...

Welcome to the club. Now get us all a beer and a tamale. :cool:

I guess it's settled then, WCG is not official. Man there was a lot of drama on the forum at that time, I think I was on a self imposed hiatus until things settled down so I don't remember those polls at all. Its nice though that we can discuss non-F@H projects on the forum now without being...

I haven't tried exactly that myself, but since it appears that nobody else has either, I'll chime in with what I do know. My shop is exclusively Hyper-V, and when I need to burn in a pallet of new servers or run something to put a load onto either the host OS or a guest VM, BOINC (and...

Well, I'll have to take half of the blame on that, I was founder for at least half of the teams before I ran out of time to deal with it all and handed them all over to Razor since he already had the other half. But the idea that we could get them changed never dawned on us at the time. And...

I seem to recall it mentioned here that Razor has been actively denying the requests to change the team founder. Have you reached out to any of the projects to see if there is anything they can do? I don't remember what project it was, but there was one way back in the day where the founder...

Yes, I'm aware of the team for POEM, I started that one as well many moons ago. :cool: I'm talking about the POEM@TEST. I still like to see the right team for all the projects I've attached regardless of stats.

I just added it to two of the machines I'm burning in, but the project appears to be out of work. I went ahead and started a team as well.

Are all of your workstations Professional Edition or higher? Home editions of Windows can't be added to a domain, so that might answer your question real quick.

You can say that again. It's been way too long. How the hell have you been?

Likewise. Work, school and family are keeping me busy to the point where I'm happy just to lurk once in a while. But you'll still see my WCG production occasionally skyrocket for a couple weeks every time I get in a pallet of servers or workstations that need burned in. :cool:

Nope, never heard of you. ;) Welcome back.

I keep all my passwords in a Keepass file and put that up on Dropbox so it's accessible from anywhere.
