Sorry for the inconvenience.' Latest communication to Andy. Sorry folks. Monday.. what week,month? It was a mistake trying this again, see if I'll bother uploading my 30-40 results, other things need my bandwith /out

4) Message boards : Number crunching : OpenIFS Discussion (Message 66644) Posted 29 Nov 2022 by Helmer Bryd Post: Hi! Finally got boinc running again but only the 7.16.6 from the repos on Mint 20.3 in my limited system directory Error: " climateprediction.net: Notice from server OpenIFS 43r3 Perturbed Surface needs 21968.66MB more disk space. You currently have 16178.31 MB available and it needs 38146.97 MB. Tue 29 Nov 2022 09:56:52 AM CET" 38 Gb sounds alot, normal? Asteroids@Home runs fine
5) Message boards : Number crunching : Total Credit (Message 53932) Posted 7 Apr 2016 by Helmer Bryd Post: Some things never change... death, taxes, and CPDN credit problems. I've been away from the project for over a year and returning I see that there's still endless discussion about CPDN credits. In fact, it still the most active - it's at the top of the non-sticky threads list, where it always has been. I have participated in many different projects, and this is the only one that I have ever experienced credit issues with. The other projects' credit systems just work. For me, personally, I don't care much about whether I get CPDN credits or not. But it would be nice if this can be fixed, once and for all. There's too much time and energy being wasted in this never-ending squabble. Fully agree. Problem is that Oxford still live in the mediaeval ages and look at crunchers as silly servants, they just don't understand how distributed computing works. They could fix it right away if they wanted.
6) Message boards : Number crunching : Total Credit (Message 53930) Posted 7 Apr 2016 by Helmer Bryd Post: just got my 10,012,024 back, Woo and Hoo :-) -snip- By the way, your credits were apparently heavily weighted in early days of CPDN's boinc era. Hence your huge percentage jump. (You beat my high-jump.) For what's it's worth, most of the people posting in defense of patience are what we used to call Beta testers -- for which, in recent years, NO CREDIT is awarded. They are dedicated to the advancement of Climate Science -- period. (Please don't think I'm here giving myself a pat on the back -- I'm much too old for such trivialities.) Hang in there, Helix! Best regards. Hey ol' buddy astroWX ;-P So you noticed Helix since he have bigger points than you in the past? (pardon my laughter) That is how stats works and it's important that folks now what folks are doing, right?

8) Message boards : Number crunching : Africa v7.22 Errors (Message 51250) Posted 16 Jan 2015 by Helmer Bryd Post: Well, that has nothing to do with _afr_7.22
9) Message boards : Number crunching : Africa v7.22 Errors (Message 51246) Posted 16 Jan 2015 by Helmer Bryd Post: ... looks like the AFR application was also removed to steer Linux users to the current EU model, which is Linux-only and high priority. That is about the silliest thing I've ever seen here, most of my completed models are reruns from crashed windows models, rescued, recovered or whatever.. Well well there are other things to do like Dnetc or Asteroids and..
10) Message boards : Number crunching : Africa v7.22 Errors (Message 51243) Posted 16 Jan 2015 by Helmer Bryd Post: These latest _afr_7.22 WUs has worked very well on my Linux box.

11) Message boards : Number crunching : Credit updates? (Message 51214) Posted 14 Jan 2015 by Helmer Bryd Post: Seems like http://www.boincsynergy.com/stats/teams.php?project=cpdn got it running again yesterday :-) + http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=teams&proj=bcpdn
12) Message boards : Number crunching : Name BOINC mis-estimates runtime for hadam3pm2_k00w (Message 51054) Posted 27 Dec 2014 by Helmer Bryd Post: Yeah, progress on these are calculated for a 120 year run. Have complained about this months ago in beta but nothing have happened, well, well..
13) Message boards : Number crunching : Credits. (Message 50962) Posted 11 Dec 2014 by Helmer Bryd Post: And looks like trickles after the twelfth don't show up on the task page. Yes, only first year trickles, that is why it only gives 1083,04 points. This is a glitch in the server parameters for that kind of model and it have happened before since it have variable lengths. It can easily be fixed to 10 years if a mod mails the staff. Edit: well I assume you have sent trickles for all 10 years..otherwise the model is crocked
14) Message boards : Number crunching : Name BOINC mis-estimates runtime for hadam3pm2_k00w (Message 50901) Posted 29 Nov 2014 by Helmer Bryd Post: Seems the same as before, can't handle stop-restarts, so I aborted it: http://climateapps2.oerc.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=17516381
15) Message boards : Number crunching : Credit updates? (Message 50726) Posted 3 Nov 2014 by Helmer Bryd Post: Well it is a BOINC project right? There are many interesting models coming up but with this ignorance from the staff I could just drop the little single core I still run. My team wants help on other projects.
16) Message boards : Number crunching : ANOTHER UPLOAD PROBLEM (Message 50724) Posted 3 Nov 2014 by Helmer Bryd Post: Not an upload problem but Downloading of the new hadam3prm3pm2t_eu. Something is funky on the server, boinc client can't find them.
17) Message boards : Number crunching : Credit updates? (Message 50534) Posted 14 Oct 2014 by Helmer Bryd Post: Huh? Problems getting acquaintances to start crunching. Huh? I just use the facts that climate research is being under-funded for political reasons, there's not much money and it all has to go to the research, not some dippity points thing like frequent flier miles but with zero value. Huh? And I've recruited a few over the years. Oh, I've been running a lot in beta for the last year on my little single linux box without any credit. Lot's have happened lately with new clients but it would have been much better if people with many Linux boxen haven't been so lazy but chimed in to test ;-)
18) Message boards : Number crunching : Credit updates? (Message 50481) Posted 10 Oct 2014 by Helmer Bryd Post: Carl would have fixed this at once. It's rather embarrassing when trying to recruit new users and and having to explain this.
19) Message boards : Number crunching : ANOTHER UPLOAD PROBLEM (Message 50242) Posted 20 Sep 2014 by Helmer Bryd Post: Oh nice:-) I've been running climate models for Kiribati for many years. The islands are endangered by rising sea levels and they have the most beautiful flag :-)
20) Message boards : Number crunching : UK Met Office HadCM3 short 7.24 things (Message 50107) Posted 10 Sep 2014 by Helmer Bryd Post: Got an explanation from Hannah of what hadcms is HadCM3S
