Phone Wallet for Samsung S8+ for $2.10 ($7.25 w/Shipping & Taxes) from CellularOutfitter.

Comparison Pics:
Both cases, I bought from CellularOutfitter. I distinctly remember this supplier, 'cos I got my old phone case (three years old, come December) for $0.99. Although, shipping and taxes brought the price up to $7.06.
If others plan on buying from CellularOutfitter, note that they don't show shipping and tax fees until after payment info has been filled in. (...I forgot this smol detail until after my purchase, whoops.)
More details about helping the forum will be coming soon, although we are unlikely to be able to open source it so we will be limited to having a few people who are able to put in a reasonable amount of time rather than a lot of people who can just drop in and out.
We use an off the shelf forum software, Invision Community, with a bunch of ltt-specific customisations that are primarily what we are looking for help with. It's all written in PHP (unfortunately), using their custom framework, with mysql and elasticsearch for the DB. We run that on top of linux+nginx.
We use Invision Community for the framework, with a bunch of plugins and customisation on top of it to fix various problems and shortcomings with the base software. It's all held together with the magic of Software Engineering.

Folding@home is a network of volunteer computers distributed around the world that aims to perform biomedical research with the single intent of helping to further understand and develop cures for a range of diseases such as; Alzheimer's, cancer, and Parkinson's. The exact research that is done is simulating the 'folding' of proteins in the body, this is important because the function of a protein id directly related to its physical shape. And this, when the protein is created in the body it needs to reshuffle its shape to get into the correct structure to perform its task. Many illnesses can be linked to faulty proteins in the body such as many cancers and neurological issues, along with a wide number of other general health concerns. This network if compared with the TOP500 list of supercomputers would outclass every single entry on the list, Folding@home is the world's fastest computing systems, with a speed of approximately 2.1 exaFLOPS. It is significantly faster than any compute system ever created and faster than even the fastest current such systems in the design phase.
If you are wondering what exactly has been done with all this computing power then you can check out the papers written by the scientists and researchers that use the folding network, I will warn you though many of them are very in depth reads and in turn this means they are often fairly technical.

To qualify for badges you must meet the minimum requirements for participation which for this event will be as follows minimum requirements: 500k points, 40WUs, and 20 days of activity over the course of the whole month. This is subject to change for future events as we find out what the sweet spot is to include as many people as possible but not make it too easy to just get a free badge.
PASSKEYS! (they're really important)
Don't forget to get yourself a passkey from the link below to ensure that you hit the points requirement, the passkey is a feature that was added a while ago to the Folding Client that helps to authenticate each user on the network, an added bonus of this is the fact that it allows you to qualify for QRB(Quick Return Bonus) Points, QRBs are extra points you earn for submitting work units more quickly, such as if you have faster hardware or let the client fold full time, rather than on idle. QRB credit is awarded after 10 WUs have been submitted. You can get your passkey from the link below.

COVID-19
COVID-19 still remains a massive prority for Foldin@Home, we are here to continue to unite with the legion of other folders from around the globe who have taken up the fight against COVID-19.
Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that are common across the world. These viruses can cause mild symptoms ranging from a fever and cough to more serious conditions such as severe pneumonia, shortness of breath and breathing difficulties.
In December 2019, a new strain of coronavirus (Sars-Cov-2) was first identified in Wuhan City, China. This virus has now spread to affect practically every human population on the planet. It is the largest health crisis seen in 100 years and a massive global concerted effort has been launched to find a cure, a vaccine or even the simplest form of treatment. And that is where folding@home comes in, partnered with The Covid Moonshot team; the folding network is being used to find existing drugs that could prove to be an effective treatment for the virus.
This is just a PSA for the new guys here, the folding team is a small close knit community, so here's a few things I'd like you all to keep in mind. It doesn't hurt to say thank you, if someone has genuinely helped you out don't forget to drop a reaction on their posts, help others where ever you can and finally we are a team first and always.
Check your stats out here! Bare in mind it can take some time for your first WUs to appear so leave it a day or two.
