Re: FAH Website issue on Firefox

@Spuds725; I do not know if it applies to any of the situations you have referenced but, I have noticed that Ad-blocking software can, in some cases, prevent info(pop-ups, etc) from being presented. It is very transparent and there is usually (in my experience) no warning that you are being prevente...

Re: Bonus for A4 projects; upgrade to v6.34/v7!

@bollix47; I believe a complete quote of my entry should have stood as follows; When the 10% point Bonus was announced, it was to be in place for 3 months , with an extension expected. and that does seem to be quite correct( while not being "exact"). Wordsmithing aside, I do completely agr...

Re: Bonus for A4 projects; upgrade to v6.34/v7!

When the 10% point Bonus was announced, it was to be in place for 3 months , with an extension expected. The 3 months will complete on 10/23/2012. Has there been any announcement about the possible extension???

Re: Project 8052 TPF differences with 4 and 8 cores?

Is there a single "official" listing that accurately states the status of each Project? I believe that I occasionally receive Beta WUs (not advanced) and I am not designated a Beta Team member. How do you check?? Rule of Thumb is "If they deal them, you Fold them".

Re: There are not enough folders

Donor Rank 316481 of 1645336 Sorry but that would be the bottom 20% not the top. Still you're doing very well for your setup. :ewink: Keep up the great work. As I understand it, if you are the 316,481st , from the best folder, among a total field of 1,645,336 folders , then you are in the top 20%. ...

Re: Poll: Stand-alone client for your OS? Yes/no/unsure

@v00d00--I should have been a little clearer about defining the environment that I was operating in, and that is on a single user, dedicated to FAH, Mac. Perhaps I was being a bit over enthusiastic. There are a lot of "realities" that affect the choice to move to OSX v7 beta at this time.

Re: Poll: Stand-alone client for your OS? Yes/no/unsure

I must agree with 7im on this one. I very recently shifted from the v6 OSX Console to the v7 beta OSX Client package install that is currently available. I am running on a Mac Mini under Snow Leopard. Quite frankly, I am surprised at just how smoothly it is operating. It transitions between WUs quit...

Re: Bonus for A4 projects; upgrade to v6.34/v7!

The bonus is now in effect: http://folding.typepad.com/news/2012/07 ... ffect.html Are the bonus points meant to apply to a4core WUs that are processed by the OSX v7beta Client??? I see that the points being reported in Extreme OC are identical to those showing in the FAH "Official" listi...

Re: Polling should be disabled!

Read the Forum. I do believe that Dr. Pande put the question to the Users. Jesse_v merely moved to provide some organized feedback. There seem to be lots of pro/con responses being entered along with the poll. Let the Poll Roll.

Re: Bonus for A4 projects; upgrade to v6.34/v7!

bruce, It is probably a good thing to split the discussion BUT I don't know which pond I should fish in. I am not against v7. I just made the shift from v6 (OSX) and it is working well. What I do want is a OSX Console Option that can be run strictly from the Command Line (Apple Terminal). If the res...

Re: Bonus for A4 projects; upgrade to v6.34/v7!

And there is an important point that does not seem to get mentioned in this discussion. A version 6.34a3 core has not been produced for the OSX platform. The only way to get to the a4core WUs is to make the upgrade to Version 7.

Re: Bonus for A4 projects; upgrade to v6.34/v7!

Thanks bruce. I will proceed on the basis that FAHControl will remain as part of the "agenda". It sounds like v7 was planned with that as a necessary component.

Re: Bonus for A4 projects; upgrade to v6.34/v7!

Thank you bruce... Is it possible, in the OSX v7 environment, to stop the FAHClient, do a restart with a -configonly flag, do the config, and then restart the FAHClient for your production run?? I have lived that way with v6.29 and have made it work for me. Have not had to rely on any GUI apps, just...
