I'm going to be building a beowulf cluster out of scrap computers and was wondering if there is any specific task that I should try to achieve for the learning experience?
@SetrixNo, it wouldn't. I would suggest plugging in whatever device you have your OS on, turn on another computer, then after it's on plug it into the other computer, and check the crashdump file.
@nobiggieBIGThe only possible malicious thing they would be doing is data-mining, but if you are worried about that, go ahead and uninstall everything, including whatever OS you use, because you can't avoid it.
@nobiggieBIGIn my opinion, you are probably safe to use it, considering if it actually was doing immense damage to computers, there would be a flood of people online ranting about it, making sure they go out of business.
@nobiggieBIGIf it truly is a malicious program, it wouldn't have the malware in the installer, it would download the malicious software when you initially launch the program. (Data-mining) Malware generally won't eat up performance, and is basically unnoticeable.
@nobiggieBIG The best thing to do would be to install it on a VM, and run multiple malware/virus detection softwares to see if it truly is malicious. If you need recommendations for the detection software, just ask.
1. I'm a native English speaker.
2. I have Discord.
3. I was SEM, but I was falsely banned, so I'm on a new account.
4. Wouldn't have it any other way.

My old account was SEM, but I hadn't played more than 30 matches, and quite a few of the games I played had smurfs and de-rankers. I'm told I'm not awful by a few of my friends that are gold nova to mg, but I need to work on my technique.
