Join the SatelliteGuys Folding@Home Team!

If you go into the Signature editor, click on the Gear icon to switch to the Code Editor. The you can change one of your color selections by changing the least significant bit of a color field (say /c4=ff0080 to /c4=ff0180) which is a “new” URL for the image and loads that into cache. Click the Gear icon to change back to the WYSIWYG UI.
Thanks.

Be careful what you wish for, Stanford University's Folding @Home is suddenly in demand as toilet paper, N95 masks, and hand sanitizer:Folding Forum • View topic - Temporary server outages
Gratifying that so many people are now interested in folding. Frustrating as I'm currently sitting with all three graphics cards sitting idle, waiting to download work.

At least I've a dozen rolls of TP :rolleyes and a full bottle of Johnnie Walker Green Label :drunk, I'm set.

Quick FYI: If you want to know if your Folding is targeting the COVID-19 virus, here's a list of the Projects assigned to that end:
How do I know that I'm working on COVID-19 related projects ?
If you're running a project that's listed here, you're fighting COVID-19 :
CPU : 14328 - 14329 - 14530 - 14531
GPU : 11741 to 11764
From this site: Folding Forum • View topic - [FAQ] SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) projects

Of course, that is assuming that your Folders can get assigned a Work Unit. If I didn't need to go to work, this would be a perfect time to blow out any dust from the heatsinks on my Farm. I have six total slots, and only two are active, the GTX 750i and CPU on my MacPro that I started Folding on thirteen years ago.

Yeah, I can't get any work for my GPU. I see lots of:

Code:

Sometimes it will start to download, and then just stop.

I have had a number of completed WUs that can't/won't upload. They sit there in my Queue and clog things up:

It uploads to the Collection server, then dies:

It's getting better. Slowly, very very slowly. Or as Dish would say sooooon.
 
That Work Unit finally got uploaded. It ended up going to a different server, and it went on the first try to the new server.
 
Everyone's Folding contributions are paying off! More detailed animations of the Spike proteins in action were posted by Dr. Bowman:

*Sigh* My CPUs are the only slots I have that can Fold. Stoopid COVID-19…
 
I seem to be getting a few GPU jobs per day on my Quadro P2000, but it sits idle most of the time. The CPU is getting more jobs, but still sits idle at times.
