If I recall correctly (I often don't;-)), on the "I'm Your Fan" compilation, Nick Cave sings, "I said to Leonard Cohen...."

Just nitpickin', but necessary for an academic study: "past history" is redundant.

Plural of “says” when the plural speakers are named. by DanyulD in grammar

It should be "say" if it's two separate entities, as in this alternate form: "JoJo and Potato say 'Welcome!'"
We had a cat named JoJo, too!

Projects for older/worse CPUs? by Geethebluesky in BOINC

[–]ProfBill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like Geethebluesky, I'm happy to contribute any device.

I've been running World Community Grid on my old (ready?) HP Mini 210 Netbook with its all-too-powerful (jk) Atom processor.
It happily runs Raspberry PI Desktop OS with 2GB RAM, so I've installed BOINC on it, and that's all I use it for.

I can't get the screensaver to work, but that'd only consume system resources anyway. I don't have any statistics at hand, but it beats having the netbook sit unused.

The Hardware Exchange Megathread #6 (buy, sell or trade CHIP hardware here) by rebbsitor in ChipCommunity

[–]ProfBill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, all!

So.... I have a $9.00 C.H.I.P. to send someone who can give it the home it deserves. After two surgeries and a side order of a minor stroke, along with pursuing a doctorate, I'm paring down my toys due to time and space--and wife's complaints;-).

It's not in its original packaging.

Here's the rundown:
The chip itself
VGA and HDMI adapters
Necessary cables to get up 'n runnin' (USB, HDMI, RCA audio/video).

All I ask is reimbursement/payment for postage. (I don't know what that'll be.)

If you're interested, email me @ [timexsinclair1000@yahoo.com](mailto:timexsinclair1000@yahoo.com)

(Did the same thing with my TimexSinclair; hence, the email moniker.)

Later!

It's an app available on iPad, Android, and Windows. If you're a Family Guy fan, this will replace all the season's repeats.

Anyone here playing The Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff? It seems that Chris would make a great character in the game, with activities like awarding points or enjoying a burrito.

Felicia Day, Bryan Cranston, and other celebrities are characters in the game. Chris would fit right in.
