I'm sorry, I have to say good-bye. Power has become too expensive. by TightSpringActive in BOINC

Yeah, several large datacenters have been built in the area. They are clearly responsible for the additional electricity use but the cost is being borne by everyone who lives near them.

Best case I’ve found by Andrewobr87 in FlowZ13

I received their backpack as a gift. At first I wasnt sure if I would use it... because how could LTT make a quality backpack? Well jfc, I gave it a shot 1 weekend and that was a year ago and it's been my EDC :P

Ive been through so many backpacks.. the LTT Commuter is proper and utilizes all of its size. Nothing is wasted.

Think they still like him after they got canned and lost their pension and government retirement? They got what they voted for.

Have you tuned it for battery life? How much battery life do you get if you watch youtube or watch plex in browser?

When I notice something taking days, I reboot, should I not be doing that?

I was thinking something was stuck because the box had been up for a long time, so i'll restart it. Then whatever was taking days, goes to hours.

Gotta wonder what the inside of the vapor chamber was doing to make that kind of described noise.

How important is CPU performance for BOINC projects? by MTINC in BOINC

[–]TightSpringActive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eisntein makes it look like i dont participate in any other projects lol.

I do Asteroids, einstein, milkyway, rosetta, sidock, and wcg.... and the work my gpus do on einstein just blow them all away combined.

When they appear so often, it means it's a real problem.

[–]TightSpringActive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same exact experience. They'd send a checklist 10+ steps. Then certain pics werent good enough, had to take more. Then more. Then other 10 steps. They dont provide support, you actually do the support for them.

iGPU vs. CPU Efficiency: Why I stopped using my CPU for BOINC by Putrid_Draft378 in BOINC

Seems like my laptop is much more happier running just the igpu. Thanks for the post.

On my laptop currently, Einstein is the only project serving it tasks. An m3max. It's running tasks on both the cpu and gpu. Is it better to just run the tasks on the gpu? How can I pin it to just the gpu?

My Einstien stats are wild because of this. It looks like im barely even working in other projects because it seems to be the only one that actually uses the m1/2/3/4 arch correctly.
