bummmer i used yo have a seti at home computer! would an old xp computer run it ? i can leave that on all day
@geouniversal The SETI@home project is no longer providing work so I've switched to the einstein@home project. This and others use the BOINC software which can indeed be run on Windows XP and earlier: https://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/List_of_projects_by_system_requirements
found my xp not really contributing tooo much, but it looks friggen cool. woke up this morning with a note "no cameras/scanners found" and wondering what/who was accessing that.
replacing the mb seems like... replacing the entire laptop. Shame it doesn't work, cool article though
I used to have (well, I still have) one of those HP laptops. I suppose it wasn't a bad laptop, but at the time using it felt quite sluggish despite 4 gigabytes of memory.
@floppys-lounge it will benefit from an SSD although older graphics processing can struggle with day-to-day life online
You're welcome ! I really love the aesthetic of your site. Thanks for reassuring me about my choice of parts for my PC, I was nervous about it, I will not forget to buy an SSD too, thanks for the tip ʕ·ᴥ· ʔ
