BOINC

2008-03-27 08:23

I don’t know why I’m excited about this, but I recently discovered BOINC because I was sort of interested in SETI, even though I’m not sure how much of an impact it will really have on we earthlings.

But, I did find Rosetta@home and World Community Grid. I have to say I’m not much of a biologist, but these projects are really cool. And since I don’t have to interpret them, but still contribute as much as my sad, sad TK-53 processor can calculate, I’ll be happy to do it near continuously.

I got more RAM for myself. I’m not sure what the true difference is, but upgrading from 1 gig to 2 gigs is giving me some weird confidence that my system sucks less now.

Ubuntu’s wireless broke somehow in the last beta upgrade, I’m not sure what to do :( I’d love to run BOINC projects on a 64bit OS.
