The Certicom ECCp-109 challenge,first posed in 1997, was solved by the Notre Dam team using a network of 10,000 computers (mostly PCs) running 24 hours a day for 549 days. $8,000 of their $10,000 prize money was donated to the Free Software Foundation.
That is a shit load of computing power. I wonder how is compares to a sun E15K
Beth and Sabrina were adopted tonight while I was helping out at the cat shelter. So that just means that Flannel is left from the cats that were there when I started 3 weeks ago. Out of 10 cages, only 3 cats were the same as last week, so a lot of them are being adopted out which is good.
I should note that I am now encoding my tivo stream at 100kps for video and 20kps for sound and my P200 is keeping up. Guess it is not as crapy as I thought.
Have you noticed the sales ranking on Amazon? First thing is, ranked against what? other printers, other electronics, other things in the whole of amazon.com. Then I start sorting things by Best selling. I am trying to find the number one selling item. I click on Digital cameras I then click on the first item SiPix style Camera Ok rank 260. Then I click on the next item Cannon A40Rank 43. So why is SiPix camera higher up on the list than the cannon. acording to the sales rank the cannon should be the best selling item. Hmmmmmm……………
Well I know the quality is crap, but I put the tv card back in my P200, I have the latest version of Real Server and an old version of real Producer. I am now streaming the output from my Tivo through my P200 to my 1.4 Ghz. Since I have the tivoweb installed on my tivo I can now start and stop programs via a web browser. So in theory I can sit at work and watch a real video feed from via my cable connection of my tivo.
Maybe I should upgrade my P200 by putting in a new Motherboard and processor

I hear on the water taxi this morning, there has been another shooting, I listen. I then hear it was in Falls Church, I then hear that it was at the Home Depot. My mind is running through all the Home Depots in Falls Church. I come up with only one. The one i have shopped in, the one next to where Best Buy used to be in Seven Corners. I don’t live near there any more but I have visited that Home Depot, the Best Buy, and the Barnes and Noble next to Home Depot many times and I know people who do still live there or close by.
