Are chicks compatible with SETI?

[MegaManX4]

We have a new female trainee here, a real chick. We gave her a place to work on (PII-400 Mhz). I told her not to shutdown the computer in the evening (because SETI runs on it) and thougt everything was fine.
And guess what? She did shut it down every evening. Seems as she don't sees the sense of SETI crunching.
So now the question,
are chicks compatible with SETI?

They sure are, MMx4. The problem lies with your handling of the problem. Try to tell her nicely at first, then bark commandingly at her, and if that doesn't help, lock the PC

Ofcourse, you could take her out to dinner, and explain in intricate detail the meaning of Seti

Jord,

I tried to explain! But she fell in sleep after 10 seconds.
And I can't take her out to dinner, she don't like it if the man is younger than she is (she=24 , me=20) .

Oh bummer,

Is she cute? Pretty? Pretty enough to organize a raffle amongst your colleagues who are older than her

[Jorden]

P.S: Do instruct the winner on how to say Seti is it

P.S2: You didn't try the lock the PC trick? Either lock it with a key that she can't power down, or lock it in the OS, that she can't shutdown without permission. There's got to be a way

P.S3: Write some batch file that shows a shutdown screen, but lets the system go idle for say 20 minutes, then powers back up and continues crunching.

Yes Jord she's a real real, "wow woman".

And, I did setup a Password now, it's her name. I don't think she will try it ever with her name.
Did I mentioned that she is not blond but behave like one?

Better rename it to her pet dog

How bright or not she might be, her own name is usually the first she tries. Oh, you could misspell it somehow. i.e. Paula, Paual

Do you have a webcam there by any chance?

[MegaManX4]

sorry, no webcam. but i try to get a pic.

Ever see the current seti@home poll on their page?
It mentioned that 92% of Seti crunchers are male,hehe

---This is not a very pc thread----


My girl friend calls me a "sad fv/k" whenever she sees me configuring a pc for seti, or looking at this news group.
