It's all about the ps3 users. We need as many as we can get!

Not exactly the PS3 is an amazing folder but if your PC has 4 cores then i would recommend using the SMP client, currently i am folding at an average of 2000 PPD.

That sucks. Good to see it's not just mine though. I thought maybe there was something wrong with my PS3 for a sec.

You have to finish a work unit first. Then if it's working it will upload your stats. The site doesn't update in real time either. It updates at certain intervals.

I've had it running for 12 hours so far.

According to the Folding@home forums they are having a problem with server loads and are adding new servers. that is why some stats aren't updating and why we can't upload or download new units right now.

Can you whether you successfully joined a group? I've inserted the number but there wasn't a "welcome screen" or so. It just disappeared again.

when the client is running it will say in the upper right corner the team number.

Holy ****...I just loaded up the folding client on my ps3 and it finally got a work unit...1.2 million frames. wtf? haha. It says it's going to take 1 day and 14 hours. :blink:

I thought the ps3 work units were all way shorter than that. it've done 20 on the ps3 and they all took about 6-9 hours.

Our production is way down for the past week. Hopefully it's only because of the problems with the folding servers.

I'll turn the ps3 back on soon. just played UT3 for a couple of hours. I'll let the thing cool down for a bit first. ;)

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      By thartist · Posted

      How backwards can you have it? Yes, Linux was gaining because of Linux handhelds and the push for gaming compatibility, but that's not desktop users, it barely converts anyone who owns a SteamDeck, though it helps for those who wanted to do it, but anyways, the AI+RAM debacle helped Linux because people can't easily upgrade their PCs easily and many hate AI so they'd be incentivized to try Linux.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      Dude, it's a .reg away from a permanent modification. If you're a power user, look it up and keep the .reg and stop being a crybaby expecting MS to include customization for everything on a generalist OS. The default is what's the best UX for the majority of the userbase, non techie people.
    • Logitech MX Creative Console is down to the lowest price

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Logitech MX Creative Console is down to the lowest price by Taras Buria Having a Stream Deck-like device next to your keyboard could be a massive productivity boost. It lets you map specific actions and shortcuts to speed things up, and Logitech has such a device for you with a big 20% discount. Right now, you can save $40 on the Logitech MX Creative Console. The MX Creative Console is an unconventional accessory that consists of two modules. One module has nine customizable buttons, with each having a built-in display for mapping. You can assign apps, shortcuts, actions, or something else. There are nine buttons, plus two more for switching between "pages" of actions. The second module has no displays. Instead, there is a big twisting knob and a small roller for precise adjustments in creative apps like Photoshop, Illustrator, Affinity, and more. There are four additional buttons as well. The MX Creative Console is available in two colors: Graphite and Pale Gray. Both are now 20% off, saving you $40. Just keep in mind that the MX Creative Console requires the Logitech Options+ app, which is only available on Windows and macOS. By the way, each unit comes with three months of Adobe Creative Cloud.
