Anyone out there Folding@Home?

I thought we were in the top 200 at some point. You mean my absence has caused us to fall?!?! C;mon Wildkow, let's beat some drums.....

It's been well over a year since we've visited the other Prius Team and taunted them on their turf....

 

i dont think we ever broke 200... but then again, i dont check it that much...

 

I don't fold with my computer...it is a laptop and when not being used, it is off. But....I do fold with my PS3. Would that count?

 

most definitely it would count.

 

OK so how do I change my settings to join the group? and how are the PS3 work units calculated to match up?

Thanks

 

set your team number to 52533

 

done and folding

 

Thanks, OrlandoGuy!

 

I haven't added another computer, but all three of my single-processor folding clients have been getting a series pf Project 1487 work units that get 1741 points but take a long time to complete - up to 20 days, sometimes. So when I look at my statistics on the Stanford site, the 'number of active CPUs in the last 7 days' varies between 3 and 6, depending on how long ago it was that I last completed one of these 1487 work units.

So you'll definitely catch up to me, probably this month, and maybe before either of us hits the One Million Points mark!

 

I've put my PS3 to work!
Three hours to complete a work unit. Is that slow or fast?

 

It's fast compared to my PCs! Thanks for contributing, MO Dale. I don't see your points yet on the PriusChat team, though - to join the team, you have to tell it you are on team 52533. One way to monitor how the entire team is doing is to look at Kakao Stats - Team Members - Priuschat

 

I've shown up at the bottom of list!

Glad to help out. I used to do SETI@Home until I had a machine rebuild. Not really sure why I didn't start up again. But, it's good to contribute to something.

 

So MO Dale, I see you on the team list - and I see another new member, syclone. THANKS - I'm glad to see more people donating their unused computer time to the basic research being done by Folding@Home.

 

It looks like the PS3's give a huge boost to the amount of data processed and work units are specifically tailored for the cell processor.

I mostly like shooters, and have played them on the PC for many years. The Half-Life series is a long-time favorite, and I currently spend way too much time in Team Fortress 2. I'm FallingHorse on Steam and Masroe on the Playstation. The PS3 is new for me so I'm trying out Oblivion and Blacksite Area 51. I'm still learning the controller.

 

You'll pass me again soon. My old laptop seems to be giving up the ghost - it hasn't been able to complete a workunit in more than a week.

But did you notice MolangiNaeda is back again? Welcome back, sir! We missed you!
