If you have a gaming rig and home and don't mind contributing the cost of the extra electrons you may want to install folding at home and lend your CPU and GPU to the folding at home project to support research on the Covid-19 virus and other diseases. If you do, don't forget to join Sonic's team #244161. Stay safe and healthy!

See https://foldingathome.org/2020/03/15/co ... ple-terms/ for more info.

I recently found out that contributors do not receive bonus points unless they have a Passkey. You can configure the Passkey pretty easily.
