#foldingathome

[rampant-s]

reminder if you're cold and have a computer with a dedicated GPU in it (or a significant thermal output):

you can use folding@home to help keep your room warm while contributing your compute to something useful to society

'ave a google if you're interested, it's great repurposing your computer as a seasonal heater

it's cold enough that i can fold bans and the PC heat is a welcome addition to my office

Started doing #foldingathome which is supposed to use your pc to help figure out new cures to cancer Covid and Alzheimer’s among other things. Real easy to set up mac, windows, linux. Also tailights pcb is looking like it will need to be reworked I will be doing further testing though. License plate pcb’s are in tmw or Thurs I believe so that’ll be good. https://www.instagram.com/p/CYnhQUisgFH/?utm_medium=tumblr

A computer’s all you need: Folding@Home joins the race to find a COVID-19 cure | The Stanford Daily

Founded by Professor of chemistry, structural biology, and computer science Vijay Pande in 2000 at Stanford, the Stanford-led global computing research community Folding@Home (FAH) is now joining the…

“When doing online learning, I realized that everyone is using their computers for a large fraction of the day … [but] not 100% of their computing potential is used. So I decided to [help] put that extra compute power to good use … Even though Folding@Home is the world’s largest supercomputer, a surprising number of people don’t know about [it].”

“By reaching out to more people, you’ll make the supercomputer more powerful [in] finding a cure for COVID-19 more quickly and gain knowledge more effectively,” he added.

I’ve started a Folding@home team based on my minecraft server called Twisted Glowstone

If you have a computer or laptop, and want to help the doctors to find a cure by allowing the idle processes on your computer to help crunch numbers and simulations to find a cure for COVID-19, you can do so with the Folding@home Program (at the link above)

If you want to join my team, our team number is 262316

Me trying to figure out if folding at home will fry my computer or not. Can anyone help?

I have a:

Lenovo Thinkpad 13 laptop, maybe four years old but not used heavily until the last year or so. Still runs like new.

Intel(R) Core i3-6100U CPU @ 2.30GHz

4.00 GB installed RAM, 3.90 GB of which is useable

64-bit OS and x64-based processor

Windows 10

all I can find about graphics is something that says Intel HD Graphics 520

Device firmware says something like Intel 6th generation Core Processor Family Platform I/O SATA AHCI Controller but idk if that is important

In theory we have 6 Mbps up/down on internet but the system is strained because or everyone working from home

事務所PCは開発用にとても広い画面を使用してるのですが、やはりGPUの性能が不足が明らかになったのでこれを購入、追加しました。 余った計算能力はCOV2019退治のために回します。 #foldingathome https://www.instagram.com/p/B-6xYrQj0Ua/?igshid=6trfod6dufq3

Ele reúne cientistas cidadãos que se voluntariam para executar simulações de dinâmica de proteínas em seus computadores pessoais. As informações desses dados estão ajudando os cientistas a entender melhor a biologia e fornecendo novas oportunidades para o desenvolvimento de terapias.
