Folding@Home: THGC Needs You -Team 40051

[beanoslim]

Yeah I think I have sorted it, I copied lils sig into my profile and it worked straight away.

I then went to the pirocast site and re designed the sig I wanted, I had saved a shortcut to various designs and that was the data I was trying to use in the sig with no luck.

Re doing the sig and using the new link has resulted in success.

I was using the [ ] all the time, don't know why this has solved the issue but it has so 😀

Adding a few points here and there, hoping to climb a little.. There are still quite a few inactive folders in the top 50?
So far I have had zero issues with windows 10 on anything i run it on. including this office box ..

Thanks!!!!!!!!
All points are appreciated by the our team and Stanford's team.
Is is just that not many people say it these days.
Our society has become so ME centric and a lot less WE centric. So much so, that we have lost sight of what matters for mankind's best interest.

Sorry about the rant.
But let me say Thanks again for your efforts.

^Its the self centred glorifying so called celebrities lifestyle world that we live in, yeah Rick you tell em...

Now back to MY issues, as they are the most important thing, lol.

I have removed the open web control command from the F@H icon shortcut.

How do I now get F@H to load straight into advanced control rather than an icon in the taskbar?

Anyone? Thanks?

 

[Unolocogringo]

I went to
c:/ program files (x86)FAHclient and found FAHControl
Right click, create shortcut, scroll down to the bottom to find it, then moved it out onto the desktop.

From there you can right click it and select pin to task bar .

 

[beanoslim]

Thanks Ricky (Can I call you Ricky?)

On a different subject I have brought a power meter to work out f@h costs per 24hrs.

I'm sure many of you have already done this, just wondered what you were paying for electricity per kwh??

Mine is 12.7p peak (16 hours) and 5.9p off peak (8 hours)

I only use my power meters to keep a check on the wattage. I've never bothered trying to work out the cost.

 

[Unolocogringo]

Winter 7.40 ¢ per kWh, summer11.20 ¢ per kWh
Winter 4.73 p per kWh summer 7.16p per kWh
Did the conversions for you.

Ricky is fine ,I've been called much worse! Or is that some Cockney slang that I am unaware of ? 😉

Yeah my power meter does wattage, amps and kwh, interesting really.

My system draw is around 700w and uses 1kwh about every 1hr 30 mins, so that's 16kwh per 24 hr period.

So say10kwh @12.7p and 6kwh @5.9p = 127 + 35.4 = 162.40 so basically £1.62 per 24hrs.

£1.62 x 7 = £11.34 per week.

£11.34 x 52 = £589.68 pa.

Not bad really.

Rip off Britain, look at the price difference

Well first off Ricky I am not a Cock a Knee😀

Second I meant no underlying insult, just started typing and Ricky was there, only Ricky that is UK based that you might not have heard of is Ricky Butcher from Eastenders but I wasn't insinuating that you were a namesake.

So do mine and my system(s) draw 1080w - 1100w or so and as my leccy is part of my rent I don't get to see the bill or tariffs, I don't give a stuff how much it costs to run.

 

[Unolocogringo]

Of course there was no offense taken or implied. Just a little jest and banter between friends.
I know the British humor can be much different than the American version on TV.
Some of my favorite shows from PBS.
Are You Being Served?
Doc Martin
Keeping Up Appearances
The Vicar of Dibley
As Time Goes By
Just to name a few.
So were are good. Don't give it another thought.

 

[Unolocogringo]

Actually my power is higher than others in my area.
We have many different power companies here.
I have 2 different companies poles on my property but am only allowed to use power from the higher priced one.
A large portion of the power where I live is Hydroelectric, so no fossil fuel is needed for production, hence the lower prices.
During the summer when demand is higher, they do fire up backup generators which require fuel resulting in higher prices.

Nice

 

[Sakkura]

Electricity prices, eh? I pay just over 30 cents per kWh, or a little less than 20p. My annual* power bill goes a bit crazy if I fold all year, so I'm shut down for summer.

*I pay a set amount every month, then once per year my meter's checked and the difference is paid.

 

[beanoslim]

Well that make me feel a little better Sakkura, where abouts are you based??

Where abouts are you Rick?? You seem to be getting the best deal so far, apart from the Mouse obviously:lol:

Rick and Beano yelling at each other and filling half the thread. I remember this!

If DoubleD or whatever his name was came back, it'll just be like when I first found out about Folding.

Not quite yelling, ribbing,goading,jest,banter or having a little gentleman's fun, yes. All in good faith and good spirits. It was never intended to be taken seriously or meant to be derogatory or degrading.
If anyone ever takes what I post to be otherwise I will profusely apologize! It was never my intent to demean or insult.

I carry my warning sign proudly to the left of all of my posts. And try to make a serious effort to post smileys etc... to be sure it is taken as such. Printed words do not convey emotion or meaning that spoken words do.

Just a bit of friendly bitching 😉

Yeah DD, when I first started there was 2 main men AK419 and bholland, DD came along and sort of took things to the next level, but then he disappeared, then he reappeared, then he disappeared again, you get the picture.

EXT then arrived and things went up another notch, then I disappeared, now I've reappeared, think I'll stop now

Rick, that really does look like a nice place to live, makes me want to book a holiday with the kids.

How far away is Augusta where they hold the Masters golf every year?
