RIP dennilfloss

[mk]

Formerly more active TeAmmate dennilfloss passed away a few days ago.

Apparently he had been really sick for some time and was found dead in his apartment.

RIP Denis. 🙁

Sad news indeed. I suggest we do the missing-man tribute by changing our BOINC names to dennilfloss for the next week.

Rest in Peace, dennilfloss! 🙁

I'm down for a missing man tribute in his honor.

Sad to hear 🙁, RIP Denis.

I changed my name in MW@H a day ago. See here.

We have done this before with great success. We are not giving away points, we are filling the stats with his name.

Link to previous missing-man thread.

 

[petrusbroder]

Done in MW. Will continue with some other projetcs too! 🙂
Done for seti@home, PrimeGrid, GPUGrid, LHC, SkyNet-POGS, Asteroids@Home.

 

[Rudy Toody]

If you check stats.FreeDC, you will see my new name under TeAm for MW@H. It takes a day or so to trickle down.

 

[GLeeM]

I changed my name in Asteroids@Home, Einstien@Home, GPUGrid, Milkyway@Home and Seti.

 

[salvorhardin]

I changed my name in Einstein, asteroids and Rosetta.

 

[Assimilator1]

Changed my name in MW, Asteroids & Skynet so far (my main active projects).

Is there a link to an on-line obituary where we can offer the family condolences on their loss?

I don't know - but there is a sticky in "Off Topic" that might have more information.

I don't usually go into Off Topic 'cuz it's scary in there, but I'll make an exception for this. 🙂

 

[Dude111]

Very sad 🙁

 

[biodoc]

Changed username in GPUGrid and numberFields@home.

 

[geecee]

I didn't know him personally (or as personally as the forums would allow), but I do remember reading his threads in OT, and looking at his naval blog. Changed my name in milkyway as well. RIP.

 

[Assimilator1]

Switched my LHC name yesterday (WUs became available then again) & my SETI name just now.

Does anyone know what/if Dennis was last crunching?
I'd look through the BOINC stats but their are several dennilfloss atm 😉.

 

[Coquito]

We're all getting older. Had a few nice discussions with Den over the years, but nothing recently. He shed that creepy old man internet persona in OT over time & became a real staple there. Sad.

RIP

I searched Free-DC stats before everyone changed names and found nothing?!?
I just now checked DPAD and Seventeen or Bust - nothing.
Is it possible to search Classic Seti?
