SETI@home uses distributed computing to analyze radio signals received from space, looking for signs of intelligence. It's one of the oldest distributed computing projects around but has yet to find E.T.
I ran SETI, both with the old software and the BOINC version, until I had plenty of units completed (and got a pretty certificate to show off). It worked fine both as a background application and as a screensaver.
I think many MacRumors SETI team members moved on to distributing computing projects in other areas, especially medical research, but I haven't been tracking this forum for a while.

i second this. folding is how i found MR, and reading the orginal catch me thread between dreadnought and atzyman is what got me going down the road to addiction...
Once I hit the one million points mark, I vow to start folding under the name Dreadnought and contribute any future points to help him climb the ranks to the lofty position he so rightly deserves!

My younger sister was looking forward to this game. Now I'll have to convince her to choose another Wii game. Maybe it'll still be okay toward little kids though?
Couldn't you just have her fix you something to eat?

I've got a question and I didn't really want to start a new topic for it. I got folding going an here (using terminal) and it's been going for a few days. I downloaded the folding tracker widget and clicked the icon on the back and it still wont recognize by user name on the site (it doesn't find any users) and I looked in terminal and I found my ID number and put that into the widget and it doesn't get any info from it. How long does it take for the site to recognize new accounts? And why the heck after like three days can I not get any info on it? I'm getting annoyed I wanna see my stats.

I think we can all admit that Apple wasn't in a very good financial position when Winer wrote this, and his viewpoint was probably not unique, at that time.
But, like the OP said, hindsight is 20/20...
oh yeah apple was on the edge of death at that point in time. It was a very risky move on their part to do it. It paid off but there was a long string of things that could of gone either way for apple and apple would of been screwed.
It not about apple products being better than others. It was about the timing of the release of some of them. the iPod was released at just the right time. Earily or later it would of flopped. They got it out right when the market started to come into play and it grew from there.
Most of there stuff just happen to be at the right time. there was a huge ammount of luck involved with apple. They had to take big chances if they wanted to stay alive. It was make it or break it for them. When you are on the edge of colasp is when you take the greatest risk

I used to buy lots of single player games way back, but these days i find the AI in the types of games i like to play to be far to predictable, gets boring very quickly :rolleyes:
I think the only recent single player game i played through was HalfLife 2, and of course epesode1, but i mainly bought HL2 for the multiplayer mods and other content

China has labor laws? It doesn't seem like Apple is abusing anything.
Actually, there's a really interesting article in the Guardian last Saturday which proposes that Chinese labourers actually have better labour rights than British workers!!

and i got a lot of posts arguing with eye in the past about the PDA...sometimes i got downright mad!!!
i am passionate about apple as a business first and computer maker second...and i believe a PDA can bring apple more money and ignoring a PDA is like tossing money in the sea because palm was having a weak vulnerable moment in those days...but that moment passed and palm recovered and that window of opportunity passed, for now
i do like the ipod, even though many mac people thought it would not work
and now i find out eye was doing that just for fun :)

have windows boxes talking to that server. also went and pinged it from several different domains/ips. no problems here.
what changed? was working? new install?
had a similar problem with two new install boxes. turned out to be a checkmark in the 'use IE settings' box. removed the check, restated the service, and it's been good since. just a thought.
stanford shows that server as up and functional. as of now.
good luck.

I wonder if anybody had a chance to try recently released GuestPC emulator (http://www.lismoresystems.com/index.html)?
I heard about company before (they had PC emulator before, forgot the name) so I am interested how this compares with VirtualPC in terms of performance and compatibility?
Moderator: Can you please delete this thread, this question should go to Mac Software and I started new thread there. Thanks.

We pay the licence fees.
Not all of us do. I don't have a telly...
I wonder how this will work in practical terms? Maybe you'll have to sign up for this service and it will be cross-referenced against TV Licensing's database... :confused:

Man. Being a software developer myself, that really almost brought a tear to my eye. Not because it was sad, but because it's all so true. And how they talk about their software creation like it is an old friend. These guys are the 21st century heirs to the real computer users of the early days of computing. Doing stuff out of love and sheer satisfaction and less out of what will only serve the bottom line. What an uplifting and joyous alternative to the senseless stupidity that is the corporate-microsoft-kissing-modern-computer world. These guys are the real McCoy. If I ever met them, I'd give them a high five. That was the most enjoyable internet article I've read in the past 6 months.

Try it with wireframe--I don't know but it sounds like the least intensive. Set the checkpoint interval to 10 minutes. You should be able calculate work units over 5 MB without trouble. Try to display the fewest polygons possible.
You can always change the options, if they don't seem to be working.
What about the Proxy "stuff" - should I mess with that, or since it seems to be working just not touch it?
Thanks :)

Very cool. Good find vniow.
I'm continually impressed with how google maps and other projects continue to make small innovations.
Now... how about a built-in way to export directions with pics to your ipod?
That's what I'd like to see.

If you are running mc68k's folding script from the terminal, open up terminal and type rid. This will uninstall all the folding scripts and current WU's. Then download and install the single processor script. It's the first DMG file listed here (http://calnet.sdsu.edu/mc68k/)
If you are using a different folding client I can't help you but maybe one of the other teammates can...

Maybe someone has a custom forum reader that posts for them, I honestly don;t know how they post so much, I can only keep pace with so many threads at a time, I have work and school so I don;t have enough time to post. Heh 3 years and 1700 posts, some of these kids have 8000 in a year:(
Sorry, I have to disagree... only the old people have anywhere near 8000 posts... and in a year, I laugh at you! :ha ha ha ha:
Obviously, my career as a criminal is not going well. I may have to turn myself in for the reward money.
Of Coarse, Luckily the reward money is $10,000 and the Bail money is $1,500...
Luck you! :D
Oh yes 'bribe the judge' is only $3000 -- its a sale!
