a blab by idle

Just enabled SETI@home on my two home computers — morel and polaris — as well as my two main work computers — reiki and ichabod — each of which thinks it's a dual-processor box (and, in the case of the Macintosh, really is). Of course, I want to do real work on these machines sometimes, so all the setiathome processes spawn with -nice 19, and of course there's the issue of "battery? what battery?" on the laptop, but I'll monitor that as it goes.

Why did I suddenly do all of this? For reasons that I'm far too tired to blog now but will definitely mention soon.
