It should be as simple as typing auth followed by your password and hitting enter then use the commands as normal

'Soon' depends on your definition! We've only had python 3 for 10 years and the end of life for python 2 was announced 6 years ago, so don't hold your breath! I did a Mint 20 install last night and got away with: sudo apt install python-is-python2 wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/...

I don't know Aorus Engine but assuming it's similar to Afterburner you can reduce the Power setting which will automatically lower clocks. Undervolting will not automatically reduce the clocks and so ay simply introduce instability. This. Just drop the power limit and let the card do what's necessa...

@Joe_H okay, so how do you explain that these 5 WU's ended up linked to my username with my numeric user ID and not some other "Evil_E" user account with a totally different numeric ID ? Someone would have had to have access to my username, user ID (and possibly even my passkey) to be abl...

FAH was processing multiple WUs with no errors with GPU clock boosted 100-120 MHz. The machine is completely stable with even 150 MHz increase (GTX 1650 Super) while loading pages or playing full screen 1440p YouTube videos with Firefox using hardware acceleration. Without wishing to sound rude, bu...

If the check pointing is at 25%, then yes, pausing or however stopping processing will result in a loss of work up to that amount.
I've asked on the project thread if this is intentional, because 2.5% or 5% is more typical.

Apologies, I misread initially
Yes the GPU dropped from 45 to 25.
I've only processed 1 13405, 2 13404 and found another log for one on this forum.
Plotting TPF, I see a spikes at 25% and 75% (but curiously not at 50% on all) that would indicate check pointing at those intervals.

Edit - sorry please ignore, I misread

After experimenting with overclocking over the last couple weeks, there is a clear correlation between clock speed and getting BAD_WORK_UNIT (114 = 0x72) errors. Even an increase of only 130 MHz on GPU causes starts causing errors sometimes. 'Only' 130 MHz - WTF! Days of that sort of overclocking a...

Faulty WUs are always reissued. The project cannot contiue the trajectory unless SOMEBODY successfully completes the WU. Every WU is issued ONCE. When a WU is not returned by the Timeout, it is assumed to be lost and it will be reissued. Under circumstances like that, more than one person can get c...

Too many errors in a row, and the client will shut down the folding slot at least until the next reboot. On the server side, every so often a user requesting work does get blacklisted for too many errors. Cool, good to know that something is in place to limit 'rogue' clients. Do researchers get to ...

I had a few WUs failed on a rig that was getting its knickers in a twist over the various GPU indices. Out of curiosity I put one into the WU checker to see if someone else had picked it up and finished it. https://apps.foldingathome.org/wu#project=16443&run=0&clone=635&gen=0 Turns out s...

Pleased to see that the stats on EOC are showing active users appearing to stabilise around 130,000. They peaked over 180,000 with a starting point of a little over 20,000. There's still a lot of churn - 10,000 a week, but to be honest, I expected a much shorter retention of new folders given the pr...

The old v6 client allowed you to 'request work units without deadlines' and there was greater use of the 'packet-size' flags to get bigger or smaller WUs (that was mostly concerned about data bandwidth, but had the same effect).

That's progress for you...

You seem to be confused about passkeys, passwords, and the different account and usernames. An admin has already confirmed that 'DrewWeeks_ALL_18Ley5QcWG7GhwG3K6H4ZXzaqsbYqABpJA' is not a recognised username here on foldingforum.org Attempting to reset the password will not work for that reason. 'Dr...
