Back 25min shy of 10 hours :-)

And Guppi splitters remain out of service ...

Nothing letf foere me now.
I am done on all fronts.

Thought I'd pop in whilst I am in a better frame of mind.

Meow to all.

Any prediction on the outrage?

How many for less than 10 hours?
How many for more than 10 hours?

Who has 8:15? Who has 7:45? Who has 8:45?

We need a SETI pool!

Reserving my seat now as I'm off to Addenbrookes in a few hours.

Yes, the winner should get a toaster.

Yep you are right Jim, Centurion is still off line :-( I had heard that it needed a new OS, but not sure what is up with it now.

SSP doesn't show Centurion as offline - just twiddling his thumbs because of lack of data.

I think they're just checking with BL that they've got their +/- signs right this time, after the two short test batches.

5:17 on the wet side of the USA - that makes it very early and down for maintenance already - someone's up and functioning far too soon today.

Valentine's day and the threat of a small scale massacre per-chance?

WOW that is early and then some. Maybe someone is up because they have an observing run for their bread and butter astronomy job?

is my earliest record here.

on the wet side of the USA.

Makes a change for the left side to be the wet side. Maybe they want to be in and out of the lab early, so they can all go out for a swim?

I've never seen an outrage so early. Who gets the toaster?

I take a "S.W.A.G." and say SETI will return sometime after 1900 Berkeley time (0300 UTC).

Do you wish to proceed (YES/no)?

Gonna be a long, cold outrage for the kitties.
Most or all of my GPUs had already run dry before it started.
Hope they come back up in full swing later today.

Meow!

I'm not particularly bothered to be quite honest. If Seti won't give me any work I shall simply go and crunch meanwhile for another project. My Boinc total goes on increasing regardless, their loss my gain. and I get shed loads more credit elsewhere anyway. Nothing to get into a tizzwozz about.

No tizzwozzing here. Just always prefer to have a full boat of Seti crunching. I do not see the need to go to other projects just to keep the computers busy. And I am not concerned with credit levels VS other projects.
Seti be my binness.
I'll just save a few kilowatt hours until they come back online.
Besides, the Tuesday outages are when I generally take off to run some errands.
Like today, I have to run over to Lori's and deliver some beautiful orange roses I got for her with a card for Valentine's day so she has them when she gets home from work tonight.

And at this time of year maybe cheaper than turning the furnace up :-))

Last time I ran the numbers, my electricity on night rates was cheaper per BTU than fuel oil. Oil is down at present, but I am pretty sure it's still a bit cheaper for me to heat electrically.

Since the RTS buffer is empty, methinks it is going to be a wild experience trying to get work when the outrage is over.
