1) Message boards : Team invites : The Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science (Official) (Message 21900) Posted 28 Feb 2010 by AtheistRamblings Post: It seems some malcontent has deleted the original RDFRS team. Members of the RDF have created a new team and I hope you will join, re-join, us there: http://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/team_display.php?teamid=5467
2) Message boards : Number crunching : Team removed? (Message 21873) Posted 25 Feb 2010 by AtheistRamblings Post: Hi, my account was set up to be a member of the \"Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science\" team. But when I logged in today my account was not associated with any team, and when I did a team search I could not find a \"Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science\" team. Anybody know what is going on? I have the same issue with Einstein@home as well. Cheers, Paul
3) Message boards : Cafe LHC : Is the LHC jinxed? (Message 21554) Posted 13 Oct 2009 by AtheistRamblings Post: A couple of physicists think so. They wonder if the LHC is being troubled by its own future. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/13/science/space/13lhc.html?pagewanted=1
4) Message boards : Number crunching : Claimed 0 credits - still pending after all 5 results received (Message 18744) Posted 20 Dec 2007 by AtheistRamblings Post: Ah good, it's not my machine stuffing up ... I have a several pending with 0 claimed.
5) Message boards : Number crunching : Don't call them .exe (Message 17787) Posted 27 Aug 2007 by AtheistRamblings Post: Don't know if this is possible but when an application is downloaded it would be good (for you) if the file did not have a .exe extension but was renamed once downloaded. Many company firewalls don't allow the downloading of .exe files. Such firewalls seem to prevent Boinc clients behind the firewall in participating in LHC@home. Note this is all conjecture on my part it's not like I'd actually try this at work. Cheers, Paul
6) Message boards : Number crunching : Maximum daily WU quota per CPU? (Message 17678) Posted 1 Aug 2007 by AtheistRamblings Post: Client Errors Don't know if this applies but I was getting lots of client errors at a machine at work. The problem was the company proxydoesn't allow the downloading of files that end in ".exe". Apparently some of the download file names from LHC (and other boinc projects) ended in ".exe" they always resulted in errors. My solution was to suspend those projects on my work machine :( Your millage may vary, Paul
