Joining a team for an Amiga distributed processing project
« on: November 29, 2008, 11:39:18 AM »
I reckon we should form a team to help somewhere like the folding@home, BOINC project or similar to help get the Amiga name up in lights when interesting discoveries are made. I'm sure there are teams ready to go on this one.

Love your work. We should really push this one as hard as possible. It would be great to reach number one. :)

What team number are you on?

I wonder if folding@home will find a cure for the problems caused by wasting lots of electricity to do heavy computation for no apparent reason. mmmm


Hippies that smoke pot don't care about cancer do they? :) The Earth doesnt care if people live on it. People care that they survive. I can sense someone is part of the inconvenient truth religion. Why use a PC at all if you can save the environment or lights for that matter? Never mind that industrial countries are pumping pollution in the air at billions of times greater than a PC. Even the humble cow emits as much as a car, so what are you going to do about them, try to cull the numbers to reduce the number of cows to save the environment? If someone you know suffers from cancer or alzheimers, im sure you wont be thinking about the environment when a cure is available. I guess i was wrong about all amiga users being fairly intelligent.

- made of nasty materials that could cause cancer... its a cruel cruel world eh?


Yup, straight into the dont give a hoot basket. Until countries like the US, India and China hop on the bandwagon on cutting their emissions, a pissy PC running all day is the last of my worries. Heres looking forward to the high tides and warmer climate. Bring it on.

Woohoo! First parcel completed. I tagged Amiga.org to my name to help with identification. :)
