I'm not sure what frightens me more. The collision with Andromeda or the Sun running out of fuel and the resulting global cooling. :uhoh:

An astronomical task, sure, but I find distributed computing projects to be fascinating in their own right

I think we need to work on a mutual assessment of what we mean by "Abominification" ... and also mutual interpretation of what it means to have a sense of humour and what is funny ... :lol:.
