It could be managed through the voting system? If someone is racking up too much they're not considered "newcomers" and can't participate in the project. Then the community as a whole would have

RE: GRCStarter@Home Proposal
I get that, but not everyone is this altruistic. There are people that simply hunt the project with lowest possible competition and point a ton of hardware at it. These people would probably swarm this

RE: GRCStarter@Home Proposal
I like this idea actually. The learning curve can be a bit steep, and when you just get in to it it can all be a little daunting. Since this is supposed to help newcomers, how will this project keep well

Great we had the SB, but damn it's been long since we had one that wasn't messed up :/

RE: Team Gridcoin has obliterated the competition at MilkyWay@home
grcpool just decreased payout by 10% though (0.225 GRC/mag down from 0.25 GRC/mag), so that sucks a little.

RE: I Just Wanna BOINC! -- Part 3: Alternative Single Board Computers
Did some research on the throttling down to 1.9GHz, and it seems the stock cooler simply isn't good enough to handle all cores on full load. I'm experimenting with some water-cooling at the moment, I'll

RE: I Just Wanna BOINC! -- Part 3: Alternative Single Board Computers
I haven't noticed that, but we also don't monitor the clock speed that closely so I could easily have overlooked it. It's not too bad, but a little annoying if it's consistent though.

Only negative thing i have about it, is that the build quality can be a little dodgy. I've been through a lot of them at work, mostly for drone beta/prototype applications, and some of the boards were

Excellent post! I've already got some experience with the Odroid XU4, and they're great boards that have gone completely under most people's radar! They even recently released a fan less version that looks
