Weekly DC Stats - 30MAR2025

Hi,

I can't reach stats.free-dc.org currently — "no route to host" — therefore I only have F@H stats via EOC and RC5-72 stats straight from distributed.net to present to you for now. (The F@H output of past week shows signs of the TeAm having been busy at the PrimeGrid challenge.) Depending on when I get connection to Free-DC again, I'll perhaps update this thread with all the missing stats. As a diversion in the meantime, I have got some other stats for you. Not weekly stats, but geophysical stats of that little 3rd rock from the Sun which we inhabit:

Earth is spoken of as the Blue Planet, much of it being covered with water, and a sky-high atmosphere floating above us. However, Earth is more aptly described as a dry rock.
Indeed 70% of the surface are covered by water, but if the water was spread evenly over the whole globe, it would make for a shallow sea of merely 2½ kilometers (1½ miles) depth. Put in relation to >12,700 kilometers of the planet's diameter, this is nothing. Ditto if compared with other objects in the solar system: Jupiter's moons Ganymede and Europe for instance, while being considerably smaller than Earth, have got oceans which are >100 km deep. They have got far more liquid water beneath their icy shells than Earth has got to show. — Earth's atmosphere isn't quite plentiful either. In little more than 10 km height, shortly above the highest mountaintops, air gets so thin that humans can't survive there. Venus and Titan, both smaller and lighter bodies than Earth, have considerably denser atmospheres than ours. (Oxygen is distinctly lacking in theirs, however.) Relating the thickness of our atmosphere to Earth's diameter, an apple's peel is five times thicker. — To summarize, this planet is surrounded by a flimsy film of air, and a tiny amount of water happened to have accreted on its surface, and that's all there is as our life support system.

In the event we have any non-crunching AnandTech readers who happen to wander into this thread: Distributed Computing is where you allow your computing device (smartphones/tablets included) to work on things like medical research, mathematical stuff, sifting through telescope data to further the field of Astronomy, and many other 'citizen science' projects. It allows networked computers to band together to act as a supercomputer. And you should join us. Thanks in advance :-) go, as always, to the folks responsible for Free-DC, who make this possible by keeping score for us.
