Any fellow Gomez Peers?

It looks more than dodgy.  It looks like if I download it it'll delete system32.

It looks like they are paying you to use your computer as a zombie in DDOS attacks...

 

 

Gomez PEER is a secure java application that runs in the background of your PC and leverages your system’s idle resources (such as unused processing power, RAM, and bandwidth) to test the performance of many of the world’s most popular websites

 

Sounds like a scam, that could possibly get you trouble.

Is it bad that my dream setup only costs a few thousand not counting the obutto?

Its not. Companies pay to have people test their site to see performance for people all around the world. But yes it looks shady and is a russian owned company now (which is why many don't use it anymore).

Might be true But there are much better ways to make money.

exactly. That is why no one uses it anymore. The chance of becoming Active is also very low.

To be honest. Finding a job will net you more money than any kind of Mining these days.

 

And if you can't find a more proper job. Go around your neighborhood and ask if you can mow their lawn for $10-20.

Umm, I already do that, you see I give tennis lessons for 20usd an hour, but problem is that my pc is using power which I am not using so instead of turning it off and on regularly(i3, no ssd) id prefer to earn some petty cash that I could donate to charity if I go over paying for the electricity bill

Getting a job is a good one! xD 

 

The only way to make good money is to work hard.
