Its back up, when I don't know, guess about 30 mins ago.

It's cold even in the deep South USA. I am in the Dallas/Fort Worth Texas metroplex and it is currently 28F / ~-2.2C and expected to fall to 13F/~ -10.5C tonight

I live in the Oklahoma City metro area. Temp is 13°F currently with a expected low of 6°F.

Complaints about the cold? Try Siberia, where it's -62C (-79.6F), cold enough that thermometers freeze and crack.

Einstein has decided to join the fun by stating

We are going to shut down the project next Tuesday, Jan 23rd at around 10 AM CET for an upgrade of our database backend systems to make them ready for the years to come. We're going to upgrade hardware parts, operating systems as well the databases themselves, which is why we need to shut down the entire project, including the BOINC backend and this very website.

We should have the pleasure of a double outrage.

Nice. I just bought a new 2 year license for my Kaspersky anti virus, with 50% off on 3 devices. The old license still has 44 days on it. It now says on my portal that those 44 days will run out and the AV on my system will then immediately switch to the new license. That's really nice. I know of enough places where they'll just put the new license in immediately, 'robbing' you of those 44 days.

Still alive, with roof. Our news is all about that storm we had today. Too glad I don't travel with public transport, as that's non-existent today.

Hello Jord, I hope you and Holly are felling better.
Best Wishes

Meh. She's trying out the bronchitis I gave her, she's on anti-biotics.
I'm trying out this new flu (AH3) which causes mostly pain (in muscles and bones). I slept about 20 hours in the past 24.

Likewise. Far from pleasant. :-[

That's one set of tests I'm glad to leave to others. I feel sorry for those involved in the testing :-(

It's doable. A lot of extra sleeping in the day, I usually crash out around 3pm. The least fun are the agonizing aches out of nowhere, which can happen at any time and then fade. I found that even painkillers don't help against those, not ibuprofen, not paracetamol, so I stopped taking both and just take the aches as they come.

We're just back from Holly's heart rehabilitation intake. She's to have an intensive program for 10 weeks, 3 days a week, during which time she'll have physical-, diet- and psychological training, on how to live longer since the heart attack. The only problem is, it's in one town over, and I'm not sure I can bring her all the time or pick her up. But we'll see.

Down early today...or I'm just still up really late ...

Ah, the pleasure of a double outrage, Seti and Einstein at the same time. I hope all involved enjoy it.

Yes, the pleasure of a double outrage. Wonder if any fresh faces will wander by?

Or perhaps shake by https://apnews.com/4034b17c03634fc38bb99430bcacd001/Alaska-hit-by-7.9-earthquake;-tsunami-warning-canceled

Alaska hit by 7.9 earthquake; tsunami warning canceled

7.9 is huge. I hope everyone is okay.

Hope everyone who's ill and what not make a speedy recovery.

Einstein seems to be back.

Glad to see your experiment is coming towards its end Jord.
I continue to pray for Holly - it certainly sounds as if she needs your support in so many ways just now.

Seti is still down, it must be celebrating the outrage over at Einstein by going over 12 hours.

Down before the alarm clock rang, still down when it is time to forage for dinner. I guess we will all just have to move to UTC +2.
