Message 28154 - Posted: 22 Sep 2006, 7:27:59 UTC

Can I ask why Mod.T thought sex with sheep in the context of the thread required deletion (especially since two mods who where active at the time .Sense and .De had let it stand)
It is a typical Welsh joke (where I have previously lived) and I find it quite rediculus that you let the 'can be seen a racist' Indian tech talk stand but remove a 'can be seen as beastiality' Welsh joke be removed.

Please lighten up, it is not beastiality, it is just like our Aussie counterparts callings us British people Pommes and should actually be seen (if PC) as a racist comment to the Welsh.

By your (Mod.T) standards you should be removing all refrences to religion if there is any hint of a joke, since religion causes more offence throught the world. So please do the decent think and move the post before my removed post. https://boinc.bakerlab.org/forum_thread.php?id=2331#28114
That sort of collective Christian stuff is not allowed in many of the Schools where I live.

FluffyChicken:
If you'd like an explanation, please send an email to the address listed here: email contact thread I'm familar with the Celtic and Welsh joke, and can remember asking many years ago about why the sheep in the fields outside of London had colored patches painted on their behinds. A case of TMI. Coming in from the fields wearing Wellies can be a mistake when one is easily embarassed. Or so I've been told. <smile>

Hi, please read the title of this (your) thread, what you have to say can be said here. That in the long run then helps all other readers know why we cannot say jokes. (especially when the thread it was refering to could very easily be read as an insult to the christian belief, which afaik creates for more wars and deaths than a joke.)

You see neither are meant to be read that way, please take your ********** from your *****. Especially as we where supposed to be in a mod free time. Double standards again.

FluffyChicken:
A few obscene posts have been deleted. You'll note there are limits to the no-mods announcement. And a common obscene joke is still obscene.

Please email me/us at the contact email address for further explanation.

Mods, you can remove this bit now.




I don't know but I think a lot of the other posts have been answered, probably also want to clean them.

The project team is in Seattle. The first post to that thread was about 11PM Seattle time. It is now 8AM Seattle time and I'm sure they're already looking in to the validation issues.

Sorry, this is not a reply to the message.
I get the error message that my computer is over comitted. Therefore I believe I need to remove a project from GridRepublic/BOINC. After consideration, I decided to 'give Rosetta the axe'.
The DETACH tab is 'blanked' and (of course) does not respond. How can I work around this to remove ROSETTA from my projects?
Thanks, Pete

There's been a few discussions about projects being labeled as overcommitted in the Number Crunching forum. Before disconnecting from Rosetta, you might want to ask about the over committed status in the Number Crunching forum. They can help identify if it's a Boinc 5.4.11 issue, having a project on your list that hasn't had any work for weeks, etc. Or identify settings you may need to change so you manage to finish more Rosetta WUs without errors.

To stop work being downloaded for a project, you can do what I did to Ralph. Change it to "no new work" status.

Since you are attached to GridRepublic you loose that sort of control at the client end. You need to goto GridRepublic and detach there.
NOTE: If you did detach, like you could in the older versions of BOINC while using GridRepublic or BAM, you would just be reattached automatically since GR/BAM would think you want to be attahced.

I just had a quick look at your stats (o get the project you are in)
http://www.boincstats.com/stats/boinc_user_graph.php?pr=bo&id=d7fac1a81f2b95dc11e50051beb688a1
Seems you only started 3 days ago and have joined lots of projects. That what is probably causing the over commitment.
I would delete all tasks but the CPDN one that you have. BOINC should then only get what it can cope with. The problem usually comes because when you start out BOINC get enough jobs from the first project, then attached to another get more and so on everytime you add another project. At lesat I think this bug is still present. But you don't actually need to detach from any, just let boinc sort itself out (though deleting helps this process speed up)

Not sure there is any bug. It's just that you are moving the target that BOINC is trying to hit. That of getting ENOUGH work, without too much. If that climate work unit now suddenly only has 10% of the CPU time... it's going to take a bit longer then originally estimated to complete.

I just wanted to point out that "overcommitted" does not in any way mean that your machine is having a problem, nor that it is working too hard or anything. I simply means that you presently have more work then BOINC predicts you can handle, based upon it's past experience with how many hours per day your machine tends to be on, and etc.

...and the term overcommitted is in relation to ALL of the projects you are crunching, and has nothing specific to do with Rosetta... although it is certainly possible to see the message when only crunching Rosetta as well. BOINC just wants to crunch through and complete the work you have, before downloading more. That's really all it is trying to tell you. It's trying to tell you that you already have plenty of work for now, and so that is why it won't be requesting anymore when you update to the projects.

I is a bug, since BOINC should not download more than it can handle (fixed in 5.6.? maybe I cannot remember but they did some playing around with it, mmciastro may remember). BOINC is designed not to miss a deadline even if it runs out of work because of it's decision.

Anders, we try to make as few threads as possible sticky to keep the first board clear for active dicussion. The thread was just updated to reflect the current versions of Rosetta. But it wasn't sticky in the past.

Do you agree that because it is referenced in the project information index, which IS sticky on all three forum boards, that is sufficient to find it?

In the future, I also plan to post a link with the announcement in the Version release log.
