Title: TSC Folding@Home Team
Post by: GerbilSoft on November 10, 2007, 09:53:10 pm

A few days ago, I started a TSC Folding@Home Team. Folding@Home is a distributed computing project to study protein folding, among other things. If you're running Folding@Home, join the TSC team!

Team Number: 92685
Team URL: http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/main.py?qtype=teampage&teamnum=92685

I'm currently running F@H on two systems, a dual-core Athlon 64 X2 4000+ and a single-core Athlon XP 1700+. RPG's also running F@H.

I might give a shit if I a) knew what protein folding was, and b) knew what the hell F@H is and how to use it.

Yeah. There's an F@H client for PS3 that is apparently quite good. Unfortunately, that's the only thing the PS3 is good at. <_<

It's not uncommon to see someone use a PS1 logo when referring to PS2 or PS3. I've seen it on advertisements for video games that are PS2-only (or multiplatform but for PS2 and not PS1).

I want to be part of the community, but I don't want to cure cancer D:

But yeah, both the computers I have access to are low end so you guys will just have to discover protein folding patterns without me.
