Every sheet I touched stayed working too 

 

I may have left a landmine but you didn't have to step on it

I notice @jakkuh_t is finally outputting the PPD I had expected from the start.

after @leadeater gave me a small heart attack the points sheet has been fixed day 25 is in its rightful place on the sheet...Have I mentioned how much i hate google sheets...

 

to give you an  idea how much i hate google apps

  Reveal hidden contents

i had a job interview ~6 years ago they said they were migrating to google cloud from Microsoft products I asked if that included removing office and going to google docs/sheets they said yes, I promptly said this interview is over and walked out...note not 1 word of that was on the job description...

 

I use VBA and other advanced things FARRRRRR too much in Excel to ever go to Sheets. The limited amount I have used sheets makes me want to drive into a...

"power limited", how dare you utter those words in this forum!

oops... I should not tell my laptop that you said that... my poor laptop decided that it did not want to run at the full 80W for the GPU, and power-throttled (?) the GPU to 30W for a couple of days. A million and a half reboots later, it decided to release the limits and I am now back to 3-3.5MPPD (compared to 200KPPD-250KPPD on GPU).

lol no, inside

ah, so the "heating" is working, yes?

[Aranwe]

Hi, I hope everybody is having a nice weekend

Does someone know whether it's normal for my gpu limit to be "utilization limit" and not power/voltage limit ? Shouldn't it keep boosting as long as there is enough thermal headroom ? Cpu doen't seem to be the bottleneck just chilling at 30% load...

 

[Kilrah]

Utilization limit basically means there is no limit active, there simply isn't any demand for more by the program that's running.

[Alex Atkin UK]

This just gets weirder.

 

Gaming rig stays consistent on utilisation, other box its all over the place on this WU.

 

It consistently performs worse and with lower power consumption (~50W less on the peaks right now), every time it gets this project, compared to my gaming rig.

Points Validated @leadeaters script still works

I know the sheet shows event points.  I'd be curious at the end to see the WU count of each person added to the spread sheet.

I'll still be near the bottom, but I'd find it interesting to see, and see if the WU rankings purely match the point rankings or deviate a bunch.

That is usually included on the final update, see here for last year's final ranks for example

@LAR_Systems You doin okay? Your PPD has dropped to zero!

Had to go out of town, so all work was finished then machines offline.

 

I'm back now, will be ramping back up over the next 24-48 but yeah, bummer it worked out like this with Folding Month.

I was afraid you may have lost power up there on mars…glad to hear it was only temporary but also bummed i was looking forward to passing you tomorrow…

After yet another clean install i finally got a GPU WU that ran without failing.

 

why is opencl so stupid to get working on linux

Yeah OpenCL is a nightmare and doubly so with AMD and their ROCm.

 

CUDA is generally a breeze at least on Fedora, except a few days delay usually before it will work after a kernel update due to it being a third-party packager, easily solved by just delaying updates or just not rebooting until you've seen CUDA get updated.

sadly for me

 

I  have amd gpus.

 

and pending another reinstall on my 2nd machine to get it working correctly, i cant run them both from the same outlet.

The folding month curse strikes again... 

 

I spent the night/morning in hospital... This is unrelated with my recent COVID test, let's just say I'm sustained an injury. I experienced chest pains and passed out on the stairs. After a battery of testing there's no cardiac issues they can see but going to see a specialist to have a long term monitor to keep an eye on it. No breaks but I've sprained an ankle and have some inflammation in my tendons in my knee which is rather painful. Have not slept, going to try to sleep in the day but we will see how that goes. I'm hoping to sleep and do the blog post as usual, but if that doesn't happen @cbigfoot will most probably do the daily stats.

As someone who has had two totally unexplained seizures (well one of the times it likely was triggered by gastroenteritis)  and almost died because both times I swallowed my tongue, you have my sympathy. 

 

The second time I was paralised from the waist down for several hours which weirdly wasn't as scary as you'd think, I just "assumed" I would recover.  The scary part was the hospital talking about discharging me before I even recovered function of my lower body and them not believing it was a fit, saying I "passed out" which they didn't know because both times the ambulance took so long I was alert again before they arrived, only because my mum was there and unblocked my throat.

Just got another folding box up and running! This one ain't elegant, though...

 

Well I managed to gain a little, guess it's hopeless now. Well played

Idk what happened to my WUs I was getting but I’ve dropped over a million PPD in the last week
