@rich depot Maybe we get to celebrate beating CureCoin by getting our vaccine. ๐
i can probably add another dozen or so hosts with another 810 dedicated to strictly folding tasks
@smoky rose even at double the server capacity that still takes 6 months. if the crisis is still going in 6 months I'm going to be sad
Larry we need someone to dethrone Den-fi
it won't be me lol i'm a cpu folder
if you wanna be on top you gonna need hella gpus
LTT is currently 35% of all active users on the entire system lol
Well, prepare to be sad. Vaccines are not developed over night.
i thought they said they where working 24/7 ๐
heh
theres a difference between a vaccin and the crisis to be over though
bad joke
There are 3 vaccines in stage 1 clinical trials.
Even if they can cut through the red tape, we're looking at 3 months minimum before they'd be "approved"
gotta go, eating dinner while watching the new ltt vid
We'll have to see where we end up with immunity and reinfection.
what do you guys think the next round of AMD will bring? another core bump or a speed bump?
Probably speed
both
@supple laurel probably speed, and efficiency. I doubt we'll see a core jump for 4000 series, but who knows.
They just bumped core an insane amount, I don't see them doing that again
On the server end, it wouldn't surprise me to see a 96 or 128 core monster, just for bragging rights.
6ghz barrier
5 base?
But for consumer level chips (ryzen 3/5/7/9) - I doubt we see more than a hundred mhz bump across the lineup with TDP improvements.
Screw tdp, MOAR POWAR
quantum fsb
Just wait for Chiplet GPUs lol.
intel- We boost to 5g AMD- we base 5g!
They'd do it
mmmm.. 30 minutes until I can get back into The Outer Worlds ๐ Gotta wait for my GPU WU to finish before I pause

This is why I was afraid to install it on my gaming rig. I didn't want to interrupt my gaming with folding, and I won't pause folding in the middle to game lol.
Got a 5 day WU 
it will go down
I don't fold (weak gpu) is there not a way to set it to use like half the power
There is. But No half-measures lol.. and I need my crisp 144hz lol.
Fair enough lol
Well, about 110fps in the game with everything on max at 1080p.
.......
dpends on what your playing
Rust
I'm still impressed with my Vega64... This thing is holding its own pretty well even still these days
Minecraft
Strategy game, maybe.. Not for FPS or RPGs
^
any game with client side hit detection ... fps matters
^^^
It took me until I was 39 years old to finally have a gaming setup I feel confident bragging about lol..
Well, I have asthma so I am staying away from people at the moment.
...I'm also introvert.
i don't play alot of FPS games so i would rather game in 4k then have 100+fps
The last piece was my monitor. I've never had a 'good' monitor until this last December lol...
1080p 144hz with Freesync - I had no idea what I was missing lol
Got it for 100 bucks on Black Friday.
4k 144hz. it was NOT 100bucks
4k 30 hz or something, it looks decent enough
Me too. C24G1
Mine is the "bezel-less" curved one.. I think yours and mine are pretty much identical spec wise otherwise
i swear to fuck, the amount of bad WUs i've had in the past few days
I find it funny it has no bezel, but the panel still has a good 1/8" black bar around the outside lol.
So, it still looks like a bezel while you're using it lol
where do you get those stats?
ah okay
Fahmm iOS
thanks ๐
"No Bezel" Lol
too bad its only ios
Feels pretty solid so far, does crash during trying to update it though
Feature set seems fine
A lot of the negative reviews seem to have a problem with config
it requires basic networking knowledge
no problem with the app i bet
yea i call pebkac lol
It does crash if you had it running in the background
And then load it suddenly
At least for my multi monitoring setup
I find the visualizer to work better than on pc
Just wish I understood the statistics page more
You can tell it was made by a grad student who thinks that spreadsheets are a perfectly acceptable form of communication
Also the โpictureโ option crashes the app, lol
it's always the pebkac
iPhone 11 13.3.1
I found a niche obscure app for my niche, obscure use case and I blame the developer for not catering to my exact needs
Expect every support request with a PEBKAC error code to be responded with โWorks on My Machineโ
Just wish the app supported notifications when I would get a new WU or WU completion on my watch
Or 3 hours with an idle GPU. I can pause and restart tasks through the app
Anyone figure out why it wants Calendar access functionality? WU logging?
probably uses it backend as api to keep tally
why build your own calendar into the app when the device already has one
Cause its nice to keep reinventing the wheel
Got my first rejected WU
fuck unit
Is it used to measure volume or speed?
GPU or CPU?
one weird thing, in slots field CPU is on top and GPU bottom
But work queue, GPU ones are on top and CPU on the bottom, and seem to always be
I have GPU on top in both lists.
maybe random when I look
man my ppd are gonna go down now.. my daughter has to do her schooling online again.. lol sarcasm...
Do you turn it off completely or just free up some cpu cores?
i pause and turn it off.. some of the stuff wont load the class connects and such. cant even use afterburner while on that.. creates a mirror image its pretty cool.. but the teachers dont like it..
its all good ill get that laptop from my uncle and she can use it... i has mo powa..
wish i had a little more flo id get 3950x and shove in this thing.. the 980ti is gonna get replaced very soon
The need for more speed is real.
im happy with the 2700 but the specs on the new ryzen
I need more ultra work units.
nice. CIRA just invited me to try their new secure DNS service
anyone else get that?
needs to send this wu....
looks like ur sending a gpu and cpu
i thinks its only sending a cpu wu.. but I'm currently working both..
ah ok gotya. I just se 07 and 22
yay all better...
Any other Radeon 5700XT users out there.. is this a good potential output for a 24hr period.
Curious to how this compares to NVidia Cards
sund about right, i get around 500k from from my rx 480s
my team donations is stuck at 149k but my profile says 360k rip
Are you looking at the foldingathome stats page or extremeoverclocking?
F@H stats team summary for LinusTechTips_Team. Help Folding at Home fight Coronavirus, further medical research, and prevent diseases with distributed computing!
Left hand side, select username and search for yours
its showing upnow, still not updated tho guess ill just wait
Yeah, there is some black magic involved in the process to compile all that information. I hear they are all out of wizards at the moment or they are all busy working with other things. The data is there though, just not processed.
ye figured itd be pretty slow considering all the traffic
it seems my gpus are not finding projects atm, hopefully it ramps up again soon
my CPU never has issues with finding ones, but is there some issue with rx 480s not finding them?
My impression is that downloading has improved somewhat but reduced congestion there (if that's what happened) has allowed us to see congestion on back-end systems ... like the points DB.```
https://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?p=320254#p320254
i hear people were having issues with multiple GPUs, my 2070 super has been getting consistant 100k+ point jobs today
yeah that could be but im assuming its what jo posted, because the fiorst few days I did i they always had projects
so im just gonna let it do its thing
I do have 2 rx 480s running though
lots of CPU for me
try removing one and wait for 1 tog et a job them as the other
If you have had projects, not done any changes to your system and now watching an idle computer it is either a lack of WU or the fact the servers are suffering a friendly firer ddos attack.
is there a way to clear the work que?
Sometimes you get lucky and receive a new WU shortly after you finish one. Sometimes you get to wait for hours.
Yeah, get everyone else to pause their clients. ๐
im meaning on my work que
have you guys been getting a lot of bad WUs for gpu? yesterday i had 3 bad gpu WUs in a row
Get on the FAH board and talk to them.
I've seen a few people getting bad WU, reporting it and FAH dealing with it.
will do ty!
so I went through and removed my gpus from the slots (in the software) then added them back now they have projects
@devout wing no need to do that though. Just pauze the software and start again. Only after the wait time is like an hour or something, no need to ddos their servers
Its just luck
How can you cut down on you folding bandwidth ?
what exactly do you mean
I mean data usage I am on a cap connection
oh im not sure about that
Not sure thats possible
@knotty pike there shouldn't be much bandwidth with folding
WU aren't tiny, but they aren't 10's of GB
Rizen 7 8300x and GTX770 2gb
yea my bad
you can probably run just the gpu or just the cpu (remove the othe rslot) im not sure about the ppd of a 770 but my 3800x gets around 80k
that would reduce the number of WUs you download assuming you run just 1 slot
My guestimate is this: With that hardware you will not be assigned the large work units.
yes i had a few bad GPU WUs today
Did LTT start their server for FAH? I went from 50k to 250k in half a day :o Or was I just luckier than on the other days?
It's online but from the server status page not doing much work.
Hey @unique sigil What's up with linus1.foldingathome.org?
GIVE US THE WUs!!!!!!
you dont deserves the
!
Does folding at home use AVX 512 ?
Core A7 use SSE2 and AVX 256.
funny thing is I have both a firepro w2100 and gtx 980 ti asking for GPU WUs
fah keeps handing big WUs to the tiny w2100 while the 980 ti sits idle
Two different folding slots, two different requests for WU that do not affect each other.
looks like the LLT Team is going to crack 4.5 billion Points today
if the servers come back up right now can't get work orders says maintenance.
@teal patio Want to fetch a screenshot of that?
Servers look to be up to me
๐คท
Where does it say maintenance?
https://stats.foldingathome.org/donor/<your tag here>
looks like we are down to 1 year to overtake Curecoin
curecoin sweating buckets
tons of dedicated folding hardware set to be annihilated by just sheer numbers
look at this
With increased server stability, plenty of work units and a update videos from LTT every blue moon = Success!
Drink every time your progress goes up
1 shot every time u pick up a WU
done and done see more shots in 24 hours ;p
At this rate I'd say clear out the bar if you get assigned a WU.
Or maybe it's just me being very thirsty.
i7-950 and amd hd6950 dedicated box but its slow and spends most of the time erroring out on work orders.
anyone have any idea what could cause a audible pop, then hard shut down my computer and require flipping off the power supply for 10secs before it will reboot? it will do it while sitting idol and while underload. but also as it's trying to go to sleep.
power supply
sounds like a relay in the power supply being triggered - safety feature.
sounds like a short
either the psu is not suppling enough power or yeah you have an intermittent short
but it seams random. sometimes 1 or 2 times and week then it will go over a month without doing it
dust is known to cause shorts
corsair 1600i not even 2 years old.
hmm interesting
pull it out of the box and blow it out really good.
canned air or air compressor if you have one. 40 psi.
i have both

You probably blew a cap
lol
Look around at your board and GPU for physical damage
oh good you meant on device not PSU
i don't see anything on the MB or what i can see of the GPU but it's got a waterblock on it
Did you see any factory smoke
no
@rancid flume
but this has also happened a few dozen times. and still runs fine
it's strange though. this is the 1st time it's happened in the 3 weeks i've been stuck at home cause of covid doing LOTS of folding and gaming almost 24/7. and it was sitting idol.
yea that is not normal at all
and both the front panel and surfuce mount power does not work. i have to flip the PSU swich for 10secs then it will turn back on
sounds like you need a bigger psu
Yes, it's "latching off" to protect itself
overcurrent protection?
ahhh it has an ntc and bypass relay for inrush current
is your pc on a power bar / conditioner / ups?
or straight into the wall on a strip made for xmas lights
it's a strip but a older one. i have a UPS but, from what i can figure is it pulls to much to be pluged in to it
specs?
2700x and 2080
i mean it'd beep at you if you went over the ups max output
so like 400W?
at the very least that'd clean up your power
it's a full tone not a beep
ye
and the website says nothing about a full tone
the only thing i've seen ever make a ups mad is a printer
printers can spike quite high
@storm talon got the 4th folding rig finished be up tonight
niiiiice
ya 5650 xeon @4.5 stable never over 68 c
i'm just sitting back and letting the boys run
it does have just surge
try going thru that port
you might be able to get away with not overloading the battery circuit
lol is that 1/4" tube
or just perspective
one of my 4 thread blocks has a 12 hour job.... why can't i get that when it set to 16 threads.
the other ones are running
4thread 1 has 2 hours. 4 thread 2 has 12 hours 15mins. 4 thread 3 is puased cause i was gaming. and my 2 thread has 8 hours
atleast the 2 hour job is covid and it's from the LTT server
Hey does anyone else just see a "demo" protein in the viewer? Is that supposed to show the protein you're folding?
viewer has been not really working so yeah just the demo one comes up. many mentions of it in forums.
Which forums?
LTT forums. it's pinned up top
also the F@H forums
Has everyone been getting WU's steadily now?
Some projects are capped at 12 threads.
Folding slots that have more than that will not be assigned those work units.
Interesting
I should say: Some projects are capped at n threads.
That might suggest they want some sort of quality control
I don't remember the exact explanation but it was along the lines of "box is not large enough".
that's what the logs said?
Explanation on the forum.
So 6 core ans 2 jore jibs in ann8 core system?
I have 2 laptops running the folding at home program for the same team but when I look at the stats, it says I only have 1 WU running
@foggy anchor FAH servers are under a very heavy load at the moment. Updating stats is low priority.
Okay. Thanks
For updated stats go to https://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/
Latest news for EOC F@H stats. Help Folding at Home fight Coronavirus, further medical research, and prevent diseases with distributed computing!
@stark bough 6 core what?
question, i have my laptop set to when i close my lid, it goes to hibernate, does that stop the process?
Yes
yes
Change "close lid" to do "nothing"
okay, thank you
hey guys I have some F@H questions if someone can help me?
We won't know until you ask.
I've been waiting to see if it was just an issue with a lack of WUs but my CPU hasn't been doing any work since I started folding again for the past 2 days
hasn't done any work, and all the support from old forum posts is obsolete
any idea what I should troubleshoot first to get my CPU cranking? 3800x
Have you visited the FAH forum?
i did but I have reading comprehension issues with large format text and I didn't find anything on my pass through there 2 days ago
Anywho, 48 hours and no WU is a bit long.
What response do you get from the servers? Check your log.
01:55:31:WARNING:WU01:FS00:Failed to get assignment from '18.218.241.186:80': No WUs available for this configuration
01:55:31:ERROR:WU01:FS00:Exception: Could not get an assignment
im guessing it's this issue
but I've been trying to find ways to alter my configuration for the past 30 minutes to no avail, I see info in old guides about setting number of CPU threads that doesn't seem to apply to the current client
What's your hardware?
3800x AMD and an RX5700 XT
And what folding slots do you have set up?
i have a slot set up for my GPU and CPU that were there automatically when i reinstalled
How many threads is it set up to use now? It says cpu:X in the Description column.
i don't see a description column in my logs but in my system info tab it says CPUs: 16 if that's what im looking for
which is expected
Ok, some projects are capped at n threads. 12 is common.
how do i edit how many threads i can allow
Configure - slots
Delete the cpu slot you have.
Create three slots with four threads each.
oh wow okay so
i have to add a slot there for each core
i only have one right now lol
on core 15 from the looks of it
Right now it is set up to use -1 slots.
yup looks like
i set it to 12 and no change yet but im guessing it might take a bit if there's no wUs available either
That error message can mean three things
- Server is too busy to deal with you at the moment
- There are no WU available for your configuration.
- There are no WU available.
kk
well i changedmy config
and i set it to 8 just to be sure i set it low enough to confirm rather than 12
i guess i'll see in a bit
thanks dude ๐
How long before it will try again?
Select one of the items in the work queue
Info show to the right of it. Check Next Attempt
i don't see where it shows that at all
its like theres a bar that exists for you im not seeing
ah okay i was looking in the logs
next attempt is in an hour and 9 minutes
but also, status is on download
its been on download since i set it up
i dont think it's ever downloaded a WU
Is it downloading a WU now? It would show in the log.
yea 1 minute now on next attempt
guess i'll take a dab and grab my meds lol i havent even been awake an hour and a half yet
didnt get anything next attempt 2 minutes ๐ฆ
fosho
laters
this is what im getting now
02:54:24:WARNING:WU01:FS00:Failed to get assignment from '18.218.241.186:80': No WUs available for this configuration
02:54:24:ERROR:WU01:FS00:Exception: Could not get an assignment
hopefully it resolves itself with the changes i made, if not i'll poke around for someone else active later
I'm coming for you
no
@rose seal what you folding with
man, its been a decade since I did this stuff competitively. I tried to access my old BOINC scoring when I did work for team anandtech and I couldn't even load my profile anymore xD. I was one of the top people on their team back then with 4 5870s xD

that rig with 16 credits 
what kind of rig is that?
what kind of folding job only gives you 16 credits?
I am literally confuse
what an air filter looks like after a week of my computer running 24/7
thats what you breathe into your lungs every week
get more computers so that your air gets cleaner 
yup and my room has low traffic
Omg.... my pc has been running for like a month.
I gotta check the filters
But I donโt want to stop folding lol
i pull mine even when the computer is running
just do it carefuling
so is everyone getting more WU this week or is that just me?
i'm not complaining but just wanting to make sure it seems to of picked up for everyone
I think that's due to lmg getting their server up and running to give out wus
Finally got the stats page back in order: https://folding.den-fi.com/summary.html
@hollow ember Yeah. It was slim pickings last week, but I don't think I've had an idle GPU this week.
Den-Fi is that site a custom setup, or is there a program you can DL?
Ohh there is a link right on the page
cool
I'm getting "communication deferred" in boinc now (without project being suspended, "no new tasks" selected and with activity "always" for everything)
is it because the servers there are overloaded as well?
mine does
is it because the servers there are overloaded as well?
@jade flicker yes. All servers are
Yea, 7 hours and my machines have been idle here
They'll sort it out sooner or later.
Anyone got a link to current rankings?
LTT competition, not EOC
Or are rankings still held up cause of server issues?
Fuck rankings
The link is at the top of the topic on the forum ๐
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sRcZZLU--NjX4Jzaw0hzlj_IaOoV78y_v63WR-TaOlY/edit?usp=sharing
it says this "06:51:42:WARNING:WU00:FS00:Exception: Failed to send results to work server: Transfer failed"
err what now =p
i think when it failed, it starts all over again
the upload
I moved from almost 2500 to close to Mihle. WUs were hard to come by til now but still a lot of idle timeโฆ I almost have a day's worth of folding creds
it feels like who can manually refresh mor eoften
which is definetly adding to the load.
oof. Power import for this month was 245Wh. Since i know im not going to crack top 500 at max, gonna pull one of my CPU folders,, scale back to 2 cores my my 3700x, and set power target to 50% on my 1070
just joned the FAH whit:
Vega56
Nvidia K5000
Nvidia P1000
i7-4790K
xeon "something" 12core
Xeon "something" 12 core
xeon "something" 6 core
and a iMAC-i7
hope to do some work ๐
Welcome to the team. You got your pass key and team number set up?
yeah of course ๐
hope to setup a 24 and a 12core later
but having problem whit vsphere.
omg, I never seen a higher assign rate in weeks
still wont assign to my gt 710 lol
yeah neither to my rx 560 but still
How to do setup more than 1 WU on 1 system?
K
Where is the advance option?
On Linux?
you need to download and install the F@H Controll program
on windows thay are bundled in to one installer, on Linux thay are splitted in to three installers
i did almost 500k yesterday and i don't think i moved at all ๐ฆ
i moved up 3 spots
FAH on mac does not support GPU?
@fierce steppe I mean in project assign rates the total is actually coming from the sum of those two servers. Add those and it comes to exactly the total project assign rate. Kinda weird they aren't summing the project types rates.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
good morning folders..
im gonna add another amd gpu to that soon.. just ordered it last night.. 5700xt.
nice
I have a 7 3700 just laying around but donโt have other set up to install to it
joy, can not connect the advanced control due to some pw I managed to set while fiddling with remote stuff
pretty sure I removed it, but wont work
and I do not think I should reinstall it atm either, as it is fully loaded with WU's
So I'm folding GPU (70c) and CPU (90c) and the exhaust fans of my laptop are round back so is my switch, it gets hot, I'm wondering if it's safe to play my switch
maybe dont keep the switch there bruh
I have nowhere else
not at all? like just out of the direct airflow
If I move my moniter to the right of the stand and not in the middle maybe
Also rate my setup
1/1 probably better than mine
My cable management means I have no place to put my feet it's horrible
zip ties are your friend
Just chuck it all in there, and zip tie the ties coming out
So the cords you do get all go togther somewhere else
There is also nice cable sock solutions
Yeah putting my switch there makes changing games a nightmare
Talking about your rats nest mate
Now uuuuurgh I just want to access the damn advanced controls, PW where you come from! I know I deleted yooooooouuuu!
@gusty path I think you mean tweezers
que?
Well that's what the verge taught me ๐
I ignore whatever comes out of there
I mean it works but my switch can come out of the dock easy (it's upsidedown so it can get air and it's not in a place that is hot)
I know what you are referring to tho...
I do not mean to stick your switch in a cable box
I mean your floor rat nest
So you get a clean floor
I used no residue double sided tape and stuck my multibox to the underside of the desk at the back
Yes I know but I was also talking about my switch placement
Uuuurgh my lost tabs! what an annoying day it has been so far
ctrl + shift + t untill you find it?
Yah that did not work
ctrl+h and just hold CTRL and open everything
was a case of crash, then crash on the crash between a restore trigger
And I rarely reboot this PC
ooo yea that's gonna lose it
so the complete tab load is probably weeks ago
I don't even remember all I had open as some are just left to the side under this is good info to just keep as I know I am going to need to refer it every now and then
similar problem, got tabs open from months ago
Was fiddling trying to get windows remote viewer to work at my home pc, and it worked fine 3 or 4 times, then it just refused
13 chrome windows with at least 10 tabs each
Got to work and had to restore windows, locked up 2 monitors plugged into my 1080
ipadOS's habit of having both windows AND tabs for each window also means i probably have a ton of tabs unread.
Probably gonna lose 70% of the tabs I had open
I guess this is tab cleansing that we need
but do not want
Also went back home over lunch to check tabs from other devices but that had been cleaned out already QQ
after a day and a half of successfully folding on my dads old work desktop
I should really set this up on a few more machines
Hahaha
I installed FAH on my laptop. So, what is the name of the fans Linus used to cool that laptop? They were loud as jet engines.
Blowiematron?
Thank you.
no thats just what he called it, thats not the actual name of the fan
Delta PFR0912XHE @smoky rose
That was enough to find the fan.
lol
Crap, 4.5A.
Hmm, I need to plan this. Build some kind of mount to place the laptop on. Back to the the drawing board.
Is this folding thing able to be done on old antminer?
Is that an asic unit?
If asic, no.
antminer is an ASIC
That is a shame.
Runs on x86 platforms.
So basically, can't be modified.
You can keep the case, replace all the hardware.
Actually i just rewatched the LTT mining videos and I remember Linus saying that because its an ASIC once it is no longer profitable to run it's waste
Yeah, well, coin mining is kind of a waste anyway (shotsfired)
๐
Wow that emoji is gigantic
cryptominers are all hash engines which is straight integer math, folding is FPU
Can you imagine it was able to be modified to fold? I wonder if Anthony ever looked into it
โ๏ธ
I got ya..
They're usually extremely specialized to specific hashing algorithms
Figured it was worth asking
That's the road to knowledge.
they're also rather power hungry for the good ones
So even though it's integer math it's still not useful for much beyond calculating SHA sums or whatever they've chosen
I feel hopeless lately and this was the one thing avg Joe's can do
CPU and GPU folding is fine
CPU folding is probably the one to focus on at the moment as well
not everyone needs a 2080 Ti to contribute effectively
My 2080 has been sitting mostly idle, but the CPU keeps getting requests
Late to the folding party? Not at all, just do it!
Iโm folding with an AMD A9 9420
I have access to free electric. So I was going to do something.
Yeah, just run the F@H client. Worst case you wind up contributing to another worthy cause
True Kim. Is a 580 mining rig with a few cards decent?
I have a few laptops scattered about with 3rd-gen i5 and i7 CPUs that I'm probably going to add to the pile
They are pushing more CPU project than GPU as it's the CPU ones that do potential drug tests etc
Ok @silver wing thanks.
badly explained though because the proper words escape me right now lol
Is it multi core?
yea
Ok. So an old Xeon would be okay. Something with decent single core performance and lots of cores?
here is stats of 1 of my folding "servers"

FAH spreads over cores pretty well so it doesn't matter too much what you have. Each generation just gets that bit more out of each core
@hushed bobcat I just want to make it worthwhile for the amount of electric that will negativity effect the planet.
Newer CPUs will likely do things a bit more quickly, but beyond that it doesn't matter much
I doubt we're making as much of an impact as the crypto crowd when it comes to resource usage
older 5500/5600 generation Xeons do well enough
And this is arguably a social positive due to the research contributions being made
Thanks for the tips. I seen an old dell server on marketplace for the cheap. I will look into it now
@silver wing come over to my place and install more breakers so i can fold more, thanks
Guys/ gals
a new cpu vs an old cpu is probably 2-4x more efficient for folding. but compared to the antminer you mentioned earlier they sip power
Bike + generator + pedal fast AF = fold more
then come over and pedal fast
I honestly want to build one of those for keeping my phone charged in the event of an outage
or get on a hampster wheel
30 cats and a exercise wheel
shut up meg ๐

This machine will be subjected to some wanky ass engineering as soon as I find a supplier of fans nearby.
oof
800 MHz
Might have to do some adjustments soon
if I get a NH-D15
cause requires it to fit properly
Just joined and started folding, I figured I could heat up my cold apartment with my i7 4770 & GTX 1070, let's see how this goes ๐
Btw, I'm only folding on the GPU.
You guys reckon my 2012 MacBook Pro can do folding? Lol
Yes, they have pushed quite a few drug simulation projects the last couple of days.
That kind of projects are run on CPUs.
Yes and WU/hr have gone up 20,000
Xeons on Turbo!
21 and 22: GPU
A7: CPU
i got gpu too
I have a lot of hardware in storage. I also have asthma so with the current situation I am not going there to get it. Kinda sad.
@smoky rose can't you ask somebody to go get it? like, leave the key outside, have them pick it up and deliver it to in front of your door?
It's 200 km away from me.
My friends here, and there, are either self-isolating or working insanely much.
It's two workstations, dual xeon 6 core and 8x 1080 Ti. Maybe it's worth a little Covid-19 to get it? ๐
@smoky rose same here can't get to my co-location since the region is locked and police is controlling license plates. only health-family issues are allowed to pass :/
We don't have that kind of lockdown here. The Public Health Agency issues recommendations. Like, don't travel to or from large cities, work from home if it is possible, cancel your plans for easter etc. What most people don't understand is that these are not polite suggestions. The next step would be legislation.
The sun is going down. Ambient temperature is dropping. Everything is fine. Almost.
In California. Itโs a shelter in place
I really hate it when people call this a lockdown
this is not a lockdown
Other places are in lockdown, but in general weโre free to roam the streets with members of our household
havent found another gpu WU since this morning at 6 am
same actually ๐ฆ
Speaking of. My neighborโs mom died and she went to Asia to attend her mothers funeral. Foolishly tried to race the lockdowns to get to her home town in time. Never happened. The island that had her mother closed flights. International flights also canceled. Now sheโs stuck renting an apartment, canโt go home, and still believes she can make it to her mothers funeral
in San Antonio that is if we are going by places
I got one at 9:05 UTC.
now her daughter has people over all the time. Dunno if itโs a shelter in place or theyโre just getting together cause they donโt got work but feels like someone is there all the time.
Either way it feels like a lockdown is coming.
Imho it should have been a hard lockdown a week ago.
i see
My city is no one leaves except they have to
I really want to get my hands on the D15 and squeeze it in a S340 like that forum guy who did the same
Here in Sweden "but it's not illegal" is a popular defence when people do something stupid/foolish in regards of SARS-CoV-2.
Well, it is not illegal to eat faeces...
Itโs not illegal to fart in a room and close a door either
Just saw we've done everyone over and got to 4th in the team list.
@smoky rose Is there also a passive/aggressive โdonโt tell me what to do, because I read on the internet it doesnโt really effect meโ attitude there too?
The heck, I can not uninstall FAH, nor can I install it
@smoky rose @stark bough yeah over here in germany it's a semi lockdown only 2 people allowed outside who live together else stay 2m apart. And in some areas the county borders are closed so nobody has the idea to go to their vacation home an spread the virus.
uninstalling saying there is nothing, installing is saying PC is running things of it, but there is nothing in the services or processes
It got a little better after The National Board of Health and Welfare issued a statement clarifying how ICU triage works when there are not enough beds. "The person with most expected years to live will be prioritised. Old farts, STAY AT HOME! ISOLATE YOURSELVES!"
It's nothing new. Just that we haven't really had any real crisis for a very long time.
โI lived through all these scares before. Iโll be fine. You worry too much. It only effects old people. My 90 year old mother is the one at risk. Iโm only 68โ
@gusty path had the same issue on one win10 machine deleting the FAH folders helped. And let me reinstall it over the old one
Yah it did
but QQ it did not solve my issue
I am still locked out of the advanced controls
for the client
Is CPU or GPU jobs still more readidly avaliable?
I'm getting on the same win10 machine the issue that when I start FAH via the taskbar that it starts FAHClient and when I open FAHControl (advanced control) it just does not connect
Legit no idea how to solve this issue QQ
I want to still knock out 3-4 WUs a day but I need to scale back on power draw
it is just saying wrong password
maybe try starting FAHClient in a cmd/powershell and the FAHControl seperately
oh thats something different all together nevermind
Tried to get it to work from my home PC to connect to this and control it
so set a PW with a remote control software for this desktop
before the whole thing just derped out completely
I know I removed it twice tho
but guess it never did
Advanced Control on win 10 will not connect if the โbrowser clientโ canโt either
over internet
Doesnโt work unless you VLAN to your own network
Wanted to connect office PC to home PC from home
Public/external IP does not work
wish i'd known that as they offer the function
now I am just eternally locked out of the advanced controls I guess
No Cloud IP.
PW? Passkey?
Password
That is what I just did
and then I uninstalled it again
but it even fails uninstalling itself properly
Like totally clean install. Deleted data, even the folder
and now it wont reinstall itself again
the hell is with this software
nothing is running, no can't delete
you click cancel and it just goes ahead and deleted
but it doesn't
I want to say skip the wizard and just nuke everything on the associated path
Restart in safe mode?
Probably have to
but there is something wrong with how this software uses files
and runs programs
When there is nothing running
Did you try uninstalling it from add/remove program in the control panel?
I tried using it's own uninstaller
as removing it by uninstall in windows doesn't do the data remove
I wonder if that password is stored in the registry or in a file somewhere.
and add remove when I did it didn't find any program
Did you look in the sql file?
Iโm frankly astounded how this occurred
Yaaay that did it
I blame windows remove viewer
It completely derped out after connecting 4 times
You have to reboot your pc after doing any change to the FAH things, then it seems ok as it doesn't close it properly for unknown reasons
I did
several times
But you should be able close the program
uninstall it
without having to reboot in the middle of that for it to function without locking itself
its still windows... golden rule is to reboot even if you just changed you desktop background ๐
never reboot until the PC borks up so bad you spend 8 hours troubleshooting why the fuck something is not working that you just go hail mary and reboots it and it works like there was never any issue to begin with XD
Yah windows is kinda stupid
coming from linux and never having to touch windows at work it feels like rebooting is the magic thing that heals the monolithic pile of random stuff that calls itself operating system ๐
yep if it works it works. but hell sometimes it feels a bit stupid 'oh you plugged your soundcard in a different USB port... THATS A REBOOT!'
RIP LTT forums
^^^
ye
LTT forum down?
Was going to ask also there about using Rapid Storage Tech as its a mix bag of worth it and not
yep
523 Error meaning DNS did a dumb dumb
or somethin
Anthony: "I wonder what this tp cable is for."
Linus: "Probably nothing important. Unplug it."
It's practicing social network distancing.
You silly, you know Linus is social distancing at home
my gpu just dropped a 180k WU and picked up a 16k WU
Gamers Nexus team is doing alright
They're getting around 200M PPD
https://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_summary.php?s=&t=234771
F@H stats team summary for GamersNexus. Help Folding at Home fight Coronavirus, further medical research, and prevent diseases with distributed computing!
increased from 1.5M points per month last month
Negative 3.5 billion points per day vs us.
yeah, but I can imagine some ltt people switched to the GN team
I just did the GN team myself. I thought LTT was not taking any others.
Where's the loyalty ๐
does the folding program use the GPU automatically?
@oblique marten anybody can join the team, there is no need to ask for permission. team number is in the channel description
Folding@home team LTT id#: 223518
(This event is only for folding for team LTT you will not qualify if you are folding independent or for another team, sorry.)
I got it now.
thanks
oh, the event is like a giveaway or something, nothing really important
I was going to say.. Not like it matters. The shovel you use to plant a tree does not matter what the name on the shovel is
as it turns out, this is a good way to stress a PC.
The folding program adds cpu and gpu slots when you install it. You can add/remove slots at any time.
Distributed computing is just competitive validation
I broke 1 million points just now.
hey dutchie parkeerwacht
seem that F@H client does not want to detect my nvidia gpu
what os are you running parkeerwacht?
Ubuntu
i get no available gpu's
even though i installed the correct driver etc
it detects it in system info tab
Post the FAH log.
parkeer - are you viewing the folding dashboard via web browser or through the FAHControl window?
control window
Did you add the GPU slot?
I have 0 GPU too but HW info shows it running at 100%
If not I can explain how to do it
yes i did try to add the slot it gives me an error with no available gpu's
it detects both opencl and cuda
i had trouble with that on my AMD card before
on my other system
Can you screenshot what's right below that? It should look like it's printing an XML file
Or even better dump the whole thing into pastebin and send the link
I have a i5-8600k and looking to buy a new GPU. Any recommendations?
that is just info like user, team etc
are these normal? 16:35:26:ERROR:Receive error: 10053: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine.
@sour locust is your GPU running at 100%?
no
i am on linux
mine is, even though it says gpu:0
gpu0 is the name it gives
You can ignore 10053 messages
In a system with two GPUs they will be named GPU:0 and GPU:1.
Ok, I was thinking that. But was not 100% sure. I figured it was logical.
Upload your log somewhere like pastebin.
I have left folding on for 72 hours and have only gotten 6 WUS
oof
what is the best Low power option for CPU?
could it have to do with permissions?
since on my AMD driver I had to change some permission so FAH could access the driver
Yeah parkeer upload the log to pastebin and we can help you out better
moment
i am setting it up on my 2nd pc which has nvidia
my main one has AMD which is currently running perfectly
GPU idle, waiting for WU. It's getting cold in here. Think I need to close the balcony door.
In FAHControl, what does Config (top left) > Slots (3rd tab) look like?
Seems like F@H is only configured to use the CPU
what brand of gpu are you trying to add
if you do nvidia-smi in terminal what is it saying
nvidia
try to set the opencl-index to 0
k ur drivers are good
try removing GPUs: False and reboot
^ in the config.xml file
Ok
small positive note, you got till 28 april at least to get this fixed ๐
lol
I would forgo the gui and just work on the cli
hmm changing it to true and then reboot worked
I just read the call to arms thread on LTT forum and I must type this out otherwise I will not have any peace of mind.
SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that cause the disease Covid-19.
yea parkeer, everything with f@h and linux is reboot
the way they implemented their systemd service is ... interesting
ahhhhhhhhhhhh
i figured as much
@rich depot I was hoping the OP would read it.
who is the OP though @smoky rose ?
GOTSpectrum, don't see them in the userlist here.
why didn't you just message them on the forum if you don't even see their username here?
I don't have an account there yet. ๐
use your wasted effort here to make an account
Does anyone know how you can allow access to the webui from a remote host?
This was discussed earlier today. Short answer: You can't.
Teamviewer :)
alright. Apparantly it used to be possible by editing the config, but not anymore i guess
Network is running low on WU. Local time in St Louis is 1310. They better get some more WU generated or I am going to have to turn on my radiators again.
They have been assigning a lot of wu's today compared to a few days ago
Yeah, last 24 hours has been really good compared to a few days ago.
mostly cpu though I believe, not much gpu
I still don't have a gpu task though
@rich depot i have
good for you
Me neither.
I finished one about an hour ago. Have had them back to back all day. Until now.
seems the leaderboard got uopdated, but is now very slow to load, everyone checking now that it updated lol
Do you use foldingathome.org or extremeoverclocking.com?
first one is the one they are talking about, eoc is what everyone uses
i cant find myself on eoc
do i need to register or something?
but Im using a simple app I made to check my stats
F@H stats user summary for SuperDotaPlaya. Help Folding at Home fight Coronavirus, further medical research, and prevent diseases with distributed computing!
That's you
There is also a record of you folding for PCMR. glares
yeah before i knew ltt had one
hey guys i have a problem with the folding client
i just reinstalled it because of this problem
when i start the client it opens the web page on chrome but it keeps refreshing it self and i can't interact with it
there is a solution?
Open dev console with f12 and refresh
Clear cache
it worked thanks you ๐
yeah, its been up since saturday or something
friday night, depending on your timezone
Up but has not served any substantial amount of wu.
@unique sigil Seen this!
@smoky rose not sure how much they served. I don't keep track 24/7 of the ltt server
That is awesome! Keep it up folks!
@rich depot Me neither, but I check in quite often. Insomnia, isolation, bleh.
tell me about it, my whole calendar is cleared since 2 weeks and going to be empty for the next 4
just bought a flat of heineken, i'm good
a flat?
24
ya but tall cans
beer from cans..... sad
?
bottles take up too much space with the amount I consume
i can get 200 cans in a single garbage bag
just try to be less of an alcoholic
no thanks!
Just use kegs? 
it's either that or pbr
Hi jake
Sidenote since staff may be lurking: I tried on 3 separate occasions to find a link to this discord on the forums to no avail... how did i finally find it? Turns out its googlable 
Still though would be neat to have a link there somewhere 
i got it off lmg clips
@rich depot just do a @ mods
not worth it
its such a minor issue
I know it was a joke

aww heck
damn you bahroo and your emote edits
just imagine it without the suit
Huh guess Im in 6th in the competition
Im pretty pumped to find out how i rank when the day 5 blog post gets posted...
am currently 3rd (after gordon and den-fi) in terms of points produced today 
Oh yeah you're right above me in points produced currently
Well, that's its status. Check your log.
Yeebus, this things really going, pushing my 3800x right to 100% ๐ glad I got water cooling
Third tab
yeah it cant find any work atm
"No WUs available for this configuration"
