Games not fully utilizing network speed for additional data downloads

I wish the Play store on Android devices would begin to download the next app that needs to be updated while the app that just had the download package completed is being installed. But it's all serial. Look at CPU usage, decompression could be bottleneck? Steam store classic example. Slow server? -
6:20 yeah, stacking servers floor to ceiling, nothing wrong with that! Or Optiplex/Prodesk SFFs anyway.

327K miles on my 2013 Chevy Volt which is essentially an EV ... an EV with a generator .. 'Extended-range EV'. Drivetrain life is basically infinite just change the transaxle fluid every 100K. Gas engine has had a PCV valve, spark plugs/coilpack, O2s replaced and that's it. Sure, they say the main seal is leaking but the rate is not cause for concern. Electric power steering no work done ever just rods. Suspension work because i race over speed bumps and pot holes every day and axles and engine mounts delivering food. But 'maintenance'? Maintenance cost is minimal in an EV. Just rare fluid changes.

326K miles yes miles on my 2013 Chevy Volt. Abusive food delivery miles. Seriously jaw dropping abusive. Electric drive is win! I just bought another 4 cheap just in case i ever need to bring it to active status. Has a Kolchuga skid plate. 1999 Civic automatic 260K miles Pic is a bit old, car not quite the same.

As far as I know A8, and a9 work is CPU only? Almost 1.4 million work units CPU only let's gooooo https://apps.foldingathome.org/serverstats -

Birthday Bash Folding Sprint

Yup a bit less more like 230 but I have 17 more coming from Ebay.. Chrome Remote Desktop hasn't complained yet. List getting slow to populate however. My NEMA 14-50 is just about maxxed. @Bums_2 a NEMA 14-50 outlet in the garage i split into 120V circuits, i have 8x120v now 6 utilized i have maxxed it out. I have a fan to cool it just in case and concrete helps. Modern house, lots of circuits. Undervolting by rolling back BIOS to pre-PlunderVolt junk so Throttlestop works, -140mV ideal, has really helped noise and heat. has photos in description. Trick with Optiplexes is that you have to reset BIOS defaults after downgrading otherwise lock it still there. Prodesks/Elitedesks not needed. Too bad Folding is like .13MPPD per i5-8500 and Gridcoin Magnitude for Folding is thus junk too but they have plenty of biological work to do on BOINC for now unless SiDock and WCG dies. But I now have installed FAH on each Coffeelake, the older ones no. ProcessLasso configured to set affinity of FAH/BOINC to 0-2,3-5 cores or maybe i have that backwards. With all my BOINC projects there r like 10 executables Folding has 4 (0xa8 0xa9 0 x 22 0 x23)and i would have to check if they get renamed after updating occasionally. I would have to go thru each 1 and enable FAH then configure FAH and BOINC to use only 3 cores. Unless i go pure Folding. I'm happy with BOINC also in that it has a queue so all these being on WIFI they can sometimes be iffy, no biggie they submit on time and stay busy. Whereas Folding is more serial. PS: Chrome Remote Desktop has been rumored to be limited to 100 devices. It's 200+ I haven't reached the limit yet. -

Happy Birthday! I wish Folding stats would show the drill-down of all the computers for a username like BOINC Do people sometimes do BOINC sprints for birthdays? Edit: Well, here are my PCs https://www.sidock.si/sidock/hosts_user.php?userid=6693 -

I just set ~15 of my Coffee Lakes Affinity so 3 cores are BOINC and 3 cores and FAH. Lessgooo. Is it top contributors get the prizes? GPU PPD site says i'd need about 170 i5-8500 Coffee Lakes to have the same as a 4090. That's a lot of mouse clicking! If anybody wants a guide on how to undervolt 6th-8th gen Intel SFF Optiplexes and Prodesks I'm your guy. -
@LinusTech "Now in my home deployment, 5:34 I'll probably just use the CPU because 5:36 I'm going to have 24 epic cores 5:38 that are otherwise going to go unused." Folding@home and BOINC needs CPU cores as well not just GPU compute!

My Win10 farm.. 21H1. Windows updates disabled, permissions killed for wuauclt.exe and wuaueng.dll nuked permanently. Defender disabled (Sysinternals autoruns program in safe mode, uncheck 'windefend'). CPU time accrued by processes other than cruncher processes is very low -
Sub 1000 watts from the wall after voltage conversion is very impressive with those lumens! Imagine if it was CFL backlit. My ~36" diagonal CFL uses 180w I measured. Curious how many theoretical lumens output from displaying a white screen on that TV in full brightness.. efficiency 80+ lumens/watt then accounting for loss through the layers?

So.. how did they put the TV in the truck in the first place?
