Have those SETI screensavers finally paid off? (I don't run one, I run Folding@Home)

Well, Seti has nothing to do w/ it -- click.

"Sadly, the New Scientist, while it implies that a detection of an extraterrestrial signal is imminent, has inadvertently wandered into a sticky vat of hyperbole."

Why is Hitler on my TV?

Hitler? Nah. That's just John Kerry.

You know a dirty, mudslinging election is going on when that happens. I hate politics.

Anyone else running SETI@home? I've got over 13200 hours/1600 units done. It's been my screensaver for years, I also run a cancer research screensaver on my laptop.

13355 units/10.068 years of cpu time

All for nothing

The extraterrestial intelligence question can be solved with statistics.

Krom · Post by **Krom** » Fri Sep 03, 2004 11:18 am

8,691 units, 5.004 years CPU time.
26,799th place out of 5,137,798
More done then 99.478% of the users.

Most impressive clutch.

No, Actually it helped provide heat in my 2nd floor window laiden office during the winter months. (I got the window office because there is not heat/ac to speak of.)

Plus, the screen saver impressed the tour groups.

No, he was only kidnapped by them. They took him aboard their spacecraft and abused him. Sexually! I'm not making this up! He told me how they were planning to kill us all!

Duper · Post by **Duper** » Sat Sep 04, 2004 11:14 pm

hey.. since this is going on. Is it ok to use pics if we host them from our own sites?

Most of us know who made these pics.

btw.. that pic is just nasty. Makes me glad I never went to Maudegra

Depends on the author, but I don't think anyone will care unless you're doing something low like stripping out credits.

Roger that, i'll just steal them and host them on my own space next time to avoid the naziism.

If I was abducted by aliens, I'd ask em if they all wanted to get drunk.

Actually, its Kumba's server since he was kind enough to donate 50MB of his space to me.

Nah, there is no way an alien could be that weird; heâ??s got to be human.
