I never leave my PC on 24/7 (don't think I should considering its age) so that hampers H@H performance?

Well I guess I shouldn't run it anyway according to my location, as mentioned. I'm considering it though because I do have solid bandwidth and it costs money. If H@H effectively pays for my internet that would be awesome.

If you can't leave it on 24/7, then you probably can't do H@H. I think 10b says so in the guide already. You can turn it off for maintenance or go on a vacation once in a while but turning it off everyday is probably not ok.

I mean, I guess I could, but probably not a good idea with this old PC. But thanks, I'll check out the guide.

And I just found out Basara Nekki is some guy from Macross 7. But his picture is a girl picture, so it's strange.

That's why I don't do H@H. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

It's not that strange. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

This character is Mylene Flare Jenius, also from Macross 7: [anidb.net] https://anidb.net/character/14046

And the image I use is from the second ending of the series.

Generally it's heating-cooling cycles that cause hardware degradation, as far as I know - running at a consistently high heat is fine. And H@H generally doesn't produce that much heat - the CPU overhead is pretty tough on say, an older raspi, but an average desktop machine should be fine.

Even though I'm sure most H@H users do that (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
Just to spite my pitiful connection even more.
If only I ever had 5 MB/up (is that even real? only broadband stuff for uni/work places have such up speed (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/duck.gif) ), I would leave my pc turned on forever for the sweet juicy hath and also being called rich for my gold star (that would be a little more if I had the funds tbh) but this time people would make a right assumption (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

Lol you made me laugh. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Yeah I forgot to mention also that where I live, our electric bill rate is like 3x higher than the rest of this country. Or something. Would that make H@H inefficient for me? I don't know how much power my computer uses when idling.

I guess you could set it to power save mode maximum, would that hinder H@H performance?

My 6+ year old Lenovo ThinkCentre minitower has been on effectively 24/7/365 for the entire time I've owned it. No problems with it. Still runs like new. (The only time it ever shuts off is during the exceedingly rare power outage or when I take it apart outside to blow the crap out of it about once a year. Also, monthly reboots for Winblows updates, but that's not actually 'off'.)

For what it's worth, my H@H box is an old Dell T100 poweredge, which is at least 10 years old, and is still pretty significant overkill for H@H purposes.

50 hath/day isn't particularly good, though. I'm somewhere around rank 250 daily, with a fiber connection & a cache ~650gb. European servers perform poorly on hit rate due to oversaturation.

If I had the same box in most Asian countries, I'd probably be getting 4 times that. But I'd also probably be paying significantly more for my net connection, so there is that (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Same.

Almost 30€/month for 14 MB up and 0.5 MB down...I heard somewhere they get H@H qualified stuff for the equivalent of 5€ (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/duck.gif)

Wait so you pay 30€ for 14MB? Lets just say right now just for the internet i would like to murder you, skin you and wear your skin just to save a shit-tone of money, for much faster internet. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

o.O
Just to clarify, it's 14 Mb (mega BIT), I wrote wrong.
That's a little less than 2 MB (mega BYTE).

My downloads usually never exceed 1.38 MB/s btw...

That is literally more as three times of what a certain uncle has to work with. So make yourself ready to let him wear your skin and use your cheap high speed internet.

Static ranges have a strong effect on your hath rate, yeah, although so does hit rate (which is why Asian clients with similar caches get way higher hath rate than me).

It is real and there is:

(IMG:[www.speedtest.net] https://www.speedtest.net/result/9579725933.png)

But I can't leave the computer on 24/7, and I also don't have any more free space (or almost nothing; I would have to buy another HD).

Furthermore, I know that in South America the efficiency of H@H is the worst of all.
