Peter do you know what the 1st place is? Is it Universe?
What is your team?
I don't understand your last sentence, did you mean "Peter do you know what the 1st EVENT is? Is it Universe?" - If so, yes, Universe starting in just under 2 days: https://www.seti-germany.de/boinc_pentathlon/start.php
Krzysztof has tennled the number of tasks ready to send.
Tennled means multiplied by ten, not sure how I say that in English!

My Team is The Final Front Ear and "Tennled" isn't a word we use in the US we just say multiplied by ten or whatever. It's kind of like 'flogging someone' we don't use that term anymore either. :-))

Doesn't sound so good. "The productivity has tripled!!" sounds cool, but "The productivity is ten times better" doesn't. Bring back Reagan, he liked making up words.

We do, but er.... um... in private basements.
Actually we (maybe only Scotland) say "flogging a car (or other item)" to mean selling it.

So what does the person call it that gets a 'flogged' vehicle?

A Proud member of the O.F.A. (Old Farts Association). Be well, do good work, and keep in touch.® (Garrison Keillor) I want some more patience. RIGHT NOW!
Gotta get more Junk motherboards sold and get the EPYC returned/rma-ed or something.

My French Lemon was £500 for a 45,000 mile car. 5 years later it still runs, now on 95,000 miles. why do people pay 25 grand for an electric car again? I don't spend that much on petrol.

If you have a motherboard which takes a socket 1151 Intel CPU, I may be interested. I have a MB that's suspect and I'd like to try changing it. Random crashes (the whole OS for no reason) every night.

To say they are part of the change to a more healthy environment, YES they know that electric vehicles really aren't environmentally friendly but it doesn't matter...it's the illusion. Kind of like owning a Bentley or Rolls Royce in the UK or Scotland, it's a status symbol and truth be damned.
Oh and just so you know the Tesla's are now $49K US to start!! Although they do resell trade-ins for less though you have to be careful as they've made some people very mad by deleting options on the vehicle because 'you aren't the original owner', so you may THINK you are getting this or that upgraded feature but Tesla could delete it at the next software upgrade.

Indeed. Since we're already using all the renewables to power stuff, if we add more load to the grid (the electric cars), those will be using nothing but coal and oil and gas. Those cars are basically using fossil fuels remotely. Not to mention the rare and running out Lithium mined in terrible conditions that kills the minors.

I'm surprised they're that cheap, I thought Tesla only made supercars at half a million plus.

What can you "delete" on a car? How and why?!
And I always buy 2nd hand cars privately. I find Joe Bloggs 10 times more honest than a used car salesman.

Well, the EPYC MB is offline.
The Asrock X570 Taichi with the busted VRM fan decided it would not run 3 gpus.
The Asus b450-f Strix Gaming is up with 3 gpus. The rtx 3080 found itself back on the 3950x box.
