@benj83isr

I just agree with you!

Thank you so much for stopping by and giving me a great reason to smile!

I do not want more food in the world because I do not want more ppl on this planet , is there some project to make biological weapons or something like that? I will join it.

@ww2footage

The funny thing with Life is that we cannot chose from what parents we're born, in what places/nations, our conditions and such... it's a matter of casuality / destiny / Providence...

What if you were one of those people being born in those places, where climatic/social/politic situation reduce them in hunger/poverty?

Would you hope that someone actually help you or add sorrow to sorrow using a biological weapon on you?

Good vid, I'm linked to 10 projects, currently @ 2,800 in the UK & 52,210 in the world.

Thank you so much!

I joined 12 projects, but I mainly/mostly crunch WUs for World Community Grid, for which I currently rank 39988.

Let's keep it up!

:-D

@Lallapalalable If you're having trouble with your computer without BOINC, you shouldn't install BOINC. If you're having difficulty with using your computer, your computer is too weak to contribute much to research. If you manage to install BOINC, your computer will lag even more. BOINC pushes the CPU to 100% activity and when you move your mouse or try to do something on your computer, there is a brief lag where the BOINC project slows down to allow more CPU headroom for what you want to do.

why is this related to oragami?

anyway, I tried to do this, but every time I download it it just sits there. How do I connect to projects!?!? I want to do this, but my computer retardation is inhibiting my efforts. Plz help! (PM plz)

[danbergam]

And me, I'm actually crunching working units for a research about rice!
