Well, folks, if you've had your GPU happily cycling through computations for Berkeley SETI Research Center's Search for ExtraTerrestrial Intelligence program, you can start counting the watts you'll now be saving. In a post on the SETI@Home page, the researchers explained the reason they'll be politely refusing any additional computations: one, that they're already hitting the point of diminishing returns on computational uptime and have already analyzed all the required data; two, that they require all hands on deck to actually peruse the already gathered data for work on research papers, instead of hard at work managing the distributed processing of data.
SETI@Home recommends users to attach their freely given computing power to another BOINC-based project, but I'd say there is no need to ask that: people who contribute to distributed computing projects such as these always want to do all their can for us all. Kudos to all of you who added your PC hardware to this project. Now, it's time to find a new home - and might I suggest Folding@Home's new project to thwart the current Coronavirus scourge? And also, remember to make use of the TechPowerUp! team ID with Folding@Home (id 50711). If you want to take part in our folding community, feel free to hit up our forums.
PS: No wording on whether aliens have been found, so we'll all have to wait for these actual research papers to come out.
