This new thread is to replace the old thread on discussion about the novel CoronaVirus (COVID-19).
 
Here are the rules if you are to reply ;
 
No political discussion, that is, complaining about a country, a politician, a party and/or it's voters, etc... (a country's response, current policy, and state on the COVID-19 can be discussed, but no partisanship will be tolerated), No antagonizing of any kind, No conspiracy theories (hoax, bioweapon, etc...), there are PLENTY of facts published by reputable scientist and science teams, No replies to incite fears or to be dismissive ; be alert, not anxious (thx Dr. Mike), Do not be dismissive toward other's fears or concerns. Misunderstanding and not knowing something isn't against the rules, but being dismissive and/or aggressive when corrected is, keep an open mind and keep the discussion friendly.  
Failure to comply with these rules means you are asked not to post in this thread. Continuing to post will be treated as arguing with moderation. Please read Community Standard about what are moderators rights in terms of content posted, and it's removal, on the forums.
 
This thread is meant to discuss and share facts, experiences, fears, concerns, and questions about the current pandemic, if you want to vent about politics, or share your most recent conspiracy theory on the subject, I suggest other platforms, as any of the rules broken will result in your reply being removed and a warning issued.

Focus on you first, event silliness second

Hey guys, quick update, the ceremony is coming, just not feeling all to well today! 
 
Out of all the days to feel unwell, it is today!
 
 

Well guys!
 
Validations, Tabulations and calculations are all done, I can now announce that 3,681 people have met or exceeded the minimum requirements for the event! 
 
NOICE! 
 
P.S. I'm too sober for spreadsheet geez

Well I post here too
 
 

Let's all take a moment and appreciate all the CPUs and GPUs that have been running 24/7 for the past 14 days or even more.😉
Cheers to everyone who participated!

Ive broken out the last of my springbank 15 year old single malt for this, we have all very much earned it!

Damn, just shy of 26M...
 

Just gotta wait for the stats to process then it's time to tabulate and calculate!

Cheers!!!  Just a small sloe gin before bed for me.

Damn it, now I have to do those jobs I've been putting off because folding was more important..…………………………...and fun 😩
 
 

Damn! I'm not so bulky folder, but I'm feeling proud of myself! 😁 Its not much, but its mine

Someone asked for some F@H achievements so here you go, they posted it on twitter 4 hours ago:
 
 

the TL;DR is to allow for less stable, less well tested WUs
Ive seen it called a "public late-stage beta" a couple of times  

Yall can't compete

Quick check: react to this post if you are interested in testing out folding on a cloud GPU server for free for a limited time period.

Tbh, can't remember. When you start, they give you $300 credit. I followed this guide on the forum. I think I calculated it would burn through it in about 9 or 10 days. Unfortunately I don't have the means to keep running it after the credit is up, but figured I wasn't going to use the free credit for anything else so why not this.
