editor Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 I received three PMs about the little monster icon in my dock. Everyone assumed it was Mexican. It's actually a Japanese monster called a Domo-kun, the mascot for children's programming on NHK's BS1 and BS2 satellite TV networks. He was hatched from an egg and lives underground with a wise old rabbit. His name translates to something like "Mister Very" but that's kind of an awful translation, which gets worse when applied to kiddy-speak.According to NHK's web site, he hates apples and farts when he's nervous.I'll be in Japan in February and March and plan to load up on Domo-kun merchandise at the 100 Yen Stores. Here's a couple of Domo-kun pictures:http://drew.corrupt.net/domo1-sm.jpghttp://drew.corrupt.net/domo2-sm.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmancuso Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 I'm glad to see all the seti users out there How long have you been "compiling data" & how many units have you completed? i have had it since 1999 but haven't had it running consistantly and have (so far) processed 1757 data units.

editor Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 O.K. So where are the kittens?  I feel like... They show up occasionally as part of the Photoshop contests (the little purple banners that say "Photoshop"). The kitten's a pretty old cliche, but still turns up from time to time.

editor Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 i have had it since 1999 but haven't had it running consistantly and have (so far) processed 1757 data units.I just installed it two days ago. It took eight hours to do one unit. Is that normal? Seems like a long time, unless the units are much larger than I imagine them to be.I don't know how much I'll use it, though. The program seems to make heavy use of my machine's Altivec engine, which makes it run hot and turn on the fan. I prefer to compute in silence.

Lowbrow Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 The units can be different sizes. Every once and a while I get one that finishes in about 30 minutes but usually somewhere between 4 and 8 hours sounds right. For me it depends what else I'm doing on the machine. I only notice sound from my machine when its downloading a new unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
