Hey Everyone
The world is quite a crazy place at the moment. With the recent announcement of the SETI@Home project being shut down, the CVGM team has started running the Folding@Home client on some of our systems that is also helping with research into the Corona Virus (Covid-19). Anyone with a CPU or good Video Card can participate in the project. The project assists with a lot of different research, and you can configure the client to only research one type of disease. Download the Client here: https://foldingathome.org/ The Team Number for CVGM is 244162, and you can enter it when you first set up the client. When its first ran, it will ask you to pick a username etc. to get started. Sometimes it takes a bit of time to start receiving Work Units, but let it go and it will eventually start processing work automatically. Everyone stay safe, and follow the safety guidelines established by your country/states! FishGuy876/Brainstorm |

Theres a bunch of different ways it can be ran, including platforms, so im sure there is one thats fairly portable. Worse case, just put the installed files into a USB drive and copy them from there!
