Hello.

I really wonder if unpredictable events such as a Krakato type eruption or a series of volcanic eruptions happening in a short period may be taken in account in a century time climate modelization.

Did you remove it from a liquid nitrogen tank lost in some Oxford University cellar ?

Either the data displayed has changed at some time, or I've forgotten how to see Pending credit.
But this one from March 2010, which is the oldest unarchived one that I have left, has something that has long disappeared, a graph of the temperature.



Hi Les
If you're exhibitng pieces of museum, I loose

Miracle !
On 2016-04-28, my Boinc account was credited 10,758 Climate Prediction points.

I thought that some more WU in suspend would follow.

But not.

Maybe some favourable sea current did allow these credits to swim across the Channel.


Now I must be very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very patient waiting many months to get some more credits reported to my account.

Credits are a separate matter.
As are the trickle_up files, which Do all go to Oxford.




Yes


Thanks God and CPDN, credits are in freezers, sheltered from climate warming.

Tasks stay stucked in manager,
- sending speed: 0,00 KBps, retry in 03:23:45

etc
Enough with CPDN misfunctions, in spite of being interested, very comprehensive and patient at climate computing.
Sorry, but no more tasks before withdrawing definitively to let place to working well science projects.
Bye

Hi, Les
Although I'm quite an ancient cruncher, https://setiathome.berkeley.edu/cert1.php starting crunching with a 200 Mhz computer, I'm a recent Boing participant, mainly since CERN went to shared computation.
By the way, hey have huge problems too, with atlas@home providing faulty work units that never end, wasting participant's CPU and GPU computation time.

You said: "In the absence of CPDN, some equivalent models would be run by academic institutions on conventional computers, most likely consuming energy at such a rate that wasteful cooling is necessary."

Boinc French team members advocated that the Brit government reduced research credits and thus, CPDN needs more participants' help and understanding. That's a good argumentation.

You said: "When these and possibly other factors are taken into account, most people conclude that volunteer computing for climate simulation is acceptable from an environmental point of view. Better than playing a computer game ..."

On my side, I allow myself to let computers on 24h/24h since I changed all my home lights for Leds. And I only play online Chess 10' each player games.

Up to now, I've only suspended CPDN workunits. I can still connect to my account.
Maybe I can wait until credits attritutions are back in order to relaunch.

You know, it's really stressing to feel punished for having crunched for climate research,
although I wonder if letting computers on 24/24 hours is climatically correct,
even if in France it's almost all nuclear electricity produced 24/24 hours.

Hello

I'd like to be nice, but I'm really furious, CPDN has "given" me -51 850 credits.
http://statseb.boinc-af.org/synthese_membre.py?cpid=a936af90dca4247530babef1338fec62

That's a waste of CPU and GPU that I should have dedicated to some other useful Boinc projects.

Therefore, I don't want my computers to work any more for climateprediction, you must delete my accounts here, first is [AF>France>Astro]DonPanic with contact@donpanic.cool emailbox, second is nonononotme with nonononotme@laposte.net as emailbox. Let me know that you have done that by mail at contact@donpanic.cool.

On my side, I'm going to delete the CPDN WU in my Boinc Manager.
