Jean-David Beyer was lucky, never having much pain.

Maybe I was lucky in having chosen a very good orthopedic surgeon and a good hospital to have the surgery done in.

You're in a country with a decent health system. Here in the UK, the average taxpayer has £300 a month stolen from them whether they like it or not to pay for the "NHS", a money pit which puts you on a 2 year waiting list, even if you're allowed onto it in the first place, I wasn't. I'll have to lie and exaggerate to even get on. Then when you do get operated on they screw everything up. You can go private, but you actually have to go through the NHS to arrange it, and then you've paid twice for the same thing. That's right, people with private healthcare insurance still pay the NHS they'll never use. Welcome to rip off Britain.

My data is comparing my family's experiences with yours.

Surgery is painful, no getting around it. She just finished a round of physical therapy and is getting along very well, almost without a limp. My wife is not tolerant of pain. But if she can do it, so can you. Don't be a wimp.

I suspect my hip replacement surgery would have been painful, but I got a moderate general anesthetic to begin with so I do not know. I was presumably on my back the whole time. When they did the heavy duty part of the surgery, they gave me a strong local anesthetic in the area of the operation. They removed the top of my leg bone and cleaned up the area of the hip. Insalled a ceramic ball in the top of he leg bone, a titanium socket in the bottom of the hip, and a miracle plastic bearing surface between them. Then put me back together. I forget if they sewed me up with thread or the self-dissolving kind. But I woke up about three hours after they began. I am told the procedure took less than an hour. They had me walk around the same day and do some exercises. The next day some physical therapy. They prescribed me some Oxycodone for pain if I needed it, but I was never in any pain, so I did not take any. They sent a physical therapist to my house 3x a week for less than an hour each time. Then I did outpatient therapy for a couple of months. I had no trouble driving. I did get a walker that I used for a couple of weeks, but after that it was more of a nuisance than a help, so I stopped using it.
At some point I asked my surgeon how long that plastic bearing would last and he said over 30 years. Since I do not expect to last another 30 years, I guess that will be OK.

"I forget if they sewed me up with thread or the self-dissolving kind. "

Usually, they put the self-absorbing sutures in muscle and underlying layers of facia and skin. They put silk of other fiber sutures to sew the wound together on the surface. At least that's what they did when I was an OR Tech years ago.

Rosetta 4.2 work units are not completing within the allocated time. Preferences set to max (1day12hrs) but the WU's only run at about 3% per hour on my Win10Pro machine.
I cannot afford 24/7 power and only run system when solar panels working (about 10 hrs per day atm).
Can admin please arrange additional time please??
thanks

Two spaces and nothing else deletes it. No idea why.

Well obviously, 1 hour is about 3% of 1 day 12 hours. They're doing exactly as you told them.

There's a thing called batteries people usually add to solar systems. What do you do at night, light candles?

Why set it to 1.5 days if you don't have it on that much?

~Oh , what fun , Rosetta has expired - Tasks in progress 0
Not a single work unit to it`s name
Now if only it could do that to the spammers

I find it sad. I have received no climateprediction work in ages. And I get precious little Rosetta either. And seti@home is long gone. I get einstein, universe, and WCG most of the time.

I don't even try to get work from here, there are more than enough computers doing the available work for Rosetta, so my don't need to "steal" WUs from those, which might not be attached to any other projects and will sit idle if they don't get anything from here. The job get done, that's all what matters, not whose computers do it.

Day two and still no WU , I wunders how long this will last , I will get bored typing about it real quick .
I have also given up trying to get regular work from rosetta
All cpu`s are crunching cosmology , yes , I have joined the dark side , anyone that has looked @ the web site will know it`s so .
Maybe they went Gothic .
Or does it use less electric to have dark webpages ?

On some types of screens, yes. And it's a lot better for the eyes, some people even use add-ons like DarkReader to have all pages dark. Some pages are automatically light or dark, depanding on your OS or browser settings.

Uh, is still alive this project? Is not abandoned??

Cosmo is a zombie project with even less input from Admin than Rosetta (if that's possible) work still flows (usualy) unless the server disks are full (again) and go`s offline for a few day`s (or longer)
and when it gets fixed (eventualy) no admin posts (if there are any) on the forum as to why (because the forum login is broken) and has been for a long time (etc) [etc] {etc}

One problem with dark pages is that I need to have a light on in the room to see the keyboard to type (or anyone else as crap as me that has to look at it)
and yes I know about illuminated tecknicolour keyboards , this mouse is one of them and is as good as christmass decorations in a dark room

On some types of screens, yes

Like the "Aug2001 vintage 17" CRT monitor" I have just sold on ebay for £80 (and it is sitting on the floor here to be packed)
They have to be VERY well packed , Royal Snail =Parcel Force , costs about £15 to anywhere in UK
And then buy two 17" led monitors from ebay for £30 (used IT recycling , tested working with 90 day warranty)
so in the end I get about £25 and two monitors that take up a lot less shelf space , use less electric and no scan beam radiation

Mad int it :-)

I'd never sit in a dark room and read something on light pages, definitely not good for eyes. For office type of work I like office type of light, i.e. lots of light.

I was more thinking about something like OLED or LCD with background light, which adjusts itself to what's needed.

sometimes while stuck at the desk for hours (at this time of year) I realise "oops its got dark" and have to switch a light on .

Eh , What , Alien tecknology :-)

I do, but only by having 15 hosts with Windows and Linux. There's supposed to be a huge Linux set of tasks soon, with multithreading! They said Autumn....
