What the.....I just checked the stats, and more than 1/3 of the team has gone inactive! I'm all for splitting up power for the different projects, but keep a machine or two on SETI....it's where we all started!

It's all good either way.  We should be looking for fresh blood to fill the seti inactivity of longtime members who decide to crunch for different projects anyways.

I think we need to start looking at ways to effectively begin a recruiting drive.

Keck_Komputers wrote I am also expecting to cut back on crunching soon. It gets too hot in the computer room during the summer plus it should be just me here so not as many computers will be in use.

Air conditioning Man..it's not a new invention..hahahahahaha

I live in Mississippi I have most definately heard of A/C. It was funny one year I was in northern Missouri during a horrible heat wave they were having. To me it was normal for late spring and early fall, but a little cool for summer (highs in low 90's, humidity under 50%).

It's actually more the lack of people in the house. I have always run BOINC (SETI) as originally intended. It harvests unused CPU cycles, without people around the computers are more likely to be turned off. Fortunately the two most productive happen to be the two I use daily.

Of course having some dummy convert the most exposed room in the house to a computer room doesn't help. It can get several degrees hotter in the computer room than in the rest of the house even with the A/C on.

May I suggest to check out this thread with regard to this topic
