Basically you loan out your computer so they can use its processing power to run calculations.

A lot of gamers have serious hardware. I've seen custom built gaming systems go for well over $30,000 with enough hardware to rival the NSA. There are also custom workstations that can go for almost $100,000 with dual processors and over 4TB of RAM. (College of Engineering has one, it is for something with fluid dynamics IIRC.) That gives these organizations a lot of extra computing power without having to purchase more hardware when owners offer their use.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Part of me wants to do this. The other part knows that the HOA would be on my butt too fast to make it worth it.

If your HOA has a facebook/nextdoor, then try posting it there.

Just got this email from Ally Bank. Waiving transaction/overdraft fees. Allowing three months of no payments on mortgage and auto loans without impact to account status or credit rating. Also pledging $3 million to support people in Detroit and Charlotte (where their main offices are).

Quote:


Here is a summary of updates that we hope will help.

Suspended fees at Ally Bank. For the next 120 days, we're waiving fees for overdrafts, excessive transactions for savings and money market accounts, and expedited shipping of checks and debit cards. As always, there are no monthly maintenance fees or balance minimums to bank with us. If you have questions, contact us at 1-877-247-2559. We're here 24/7.

Deferred payments for Ally Auto financing. You can defer your payment for up to 120 days. During this time, finance charges will accrue, but you won't be charged any late fees. Starting March 20, you'll be able to log in at ally.com/auto to defer your payments. (It's easy to set up your username and password if you haven't already.) If you need help today, call us at 1-888-925-2559 any time before 10 pm ET. We're also deferring payments for new auto financing, so the first payment isn't due for 90 days.

Deferred Ally Home payments. If you're facing financial hardship due to an interruption in your income, we can defer your Ally Home payments for up to 120 days. During this time, interest will accrue, but you won't be charged any late fees or have impacts to your credit. If you need to start this process, call us at 1-866-401-4742.

Caring for the communities we serve. We've pledged $3 million to help the communities where our employees live and work, with special focus on our hometown locations of Detroit and Charlotte. We're targeting our help to address the emergency needs of those communities, such as food, health care, emergency housing, and childcare. The vast majority of our team is already working from home, and we're working toward a goal of allowing the entire workforce to be at home. We're also paying short-term disability benefits to any employee diagnosed with COVID-19, providing supplemental childcare benefits, and offering paid caregiver leave to employees caring for a sick family member.

We hope these changes help, and we're committed for looking for more ways to help as we navigate these new waters together. This is a challenging time for many. But no matter what changes, one thing will remain the same: you have an ally in us. If there's anything we can do to help you, let us know.

Unfortunately, if you mistakenly take the first left you'll just end up back here.

it's not that I dont agree with you, but that this thread has a specific mission:

To share how our neighbors and communities are working together to help and heal each other. If your post isnt thankful, encouraging, or sharing a good bull story about how people have been awesome during this time, there are dozens of places to share your frustrations with the world... leave some shiny spots.

My HEB checkout person this morning told me that her husband is a cashier at the local Costco. Costco is having a special 2 hour closed shopping session for people that work in retail, so that they can get some groceries. She also said HEB, as a company, has been wonderful to work in during this crazy time.

I believe HEB just gave all employees a $2/hour raise for the time being for their efforts
