This will improve voice quality for those who are using in game communication on our servers. Most mics will sound much better but some may sound worse, give it a try!
It's been a little over a year since our last update and we're now finally getting things moving. In the coming weeks we should have a new site, improved forums and we'll be a lot more active. We'll also be looking for staff for some of our servers that are in dire need.
Once things are closer to being finished I will post a changelog and a list of things we plan to do in the future.
[email protected] is a project started by a group of Stanford scientists which uses are unused computer processor cycles to fold proteins. BoN now has an open group that participates in this project.
Folding is the process of folding proteins to see why, and how they fold in order to cure diseases. When these proteins fold, they sometimes do not fold correctly, causing diseases such as Alzheimer's. One of the outcomes of this project is to hopefully create synthetic polymers to carry out the same processes as the proteins, but do them with nano-technology instead of using the diseased protein.
Basically, proteins are folded, then observed, and then artificially recreated.
Why should I fold?
The first reason you should fold is because it helps with the advancement of medical research. You may have a family member or friend with a disease that can be cured by folding. You can also help the population in general by stopping these diseases from existing in future generations.
The second reason you should fold is because it doesn't interfere with your regular procesing. When you use your computer, you don't necssarily use up all of the processor. [email protected] uses the unused cycles of your processor and doesn't interfere with your daily work. It just leeches on your unused processing power. This is a very good idea if your computer is left on over night without anything to do.
