dekez may be away, which could explain lack of foldy news.

But mining does seem to have hit our interests in DC stuff as a whole.

As for folding, they have causes some disillusionment amongst some of our participants as they will be stopping BigAdv type work, which means those who had invested in heavy duty crunchers will now have hardware that is of little use. Many have swapped over to BOINC projects.
 
Apparently BigAdv doesn't fit with the ethos of folding@home. They don't think it's fair a few have mega rigs and the project should be about average users and what they can do. BigAdv was supposedly experimental and grew into something unexpected. :rolleyes:
 
I don't think I'll go back to folding again now. It was fun though last winter (especially with no other form of heating!), but it does cost a lot in electric, plus stress on components.
