Not consistently, at least not people actually using a referral link so I know they're subscribing. My biggest hurdle are very greedy people who insist there must be a secret catch, as no person *actually* gives to charity to help others. Therefore, they suppose, I must be trying to trick them or I'm secretly paid for this.
I'm going to try a few things once the COVID-19 project activates, and hope people scared for their own lives stick around and consider the lives of others. |

Do you want to be a super hero? Do you own a computer, smart phone or tablet? Did you know you could use your device's idle time to save lives? World Community Grid enables anyone with a computer, smart phone or tablet to donate their unused computing power to advance cutting-edge scientific research on topics related to health, poverty and sustain ability. Whenever you are not using it, your device can help save lives and cure diseases. A one time setup ( totally free ) is all that it takes. If you decide for any reason you don't want to continue it is easy to do so. Just think while you sleep, watch television, work or enjoy the out doors your device is busy helping to save lives through research. The setup is simple and works strictly on your preferences. You can go online and view the contributions you have made and the contributions of other heroes. Please check out World Community grid at: https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org A super hero cape is not required to save lives, but you will deserve one. |

This is what I've posted to my Facebook page.
----------------------------------------It's not getting as much attention as I'd like yet, but this is the wee hours of the morning in my country. If you think it can be improved, go ahead and make suggestions. If you like it, go ahead and repost it verbatim. (The "looking for medicine" alert can be established via the Facebook menu before publishing the post.) Dayle Diamond is looking for medicine. SIGN YOUR DEVICES UP TO FIGHT COVID-19 IBM and the World Community Grid have just released a mass-calculation project to help find a cure for COVID-19. Like their previous biomedical projects, the results of the project will be made available to all. Only a cure or vaccine will end this pandemic once and for all. The faster we can identify promising compounds to test in labs, the more lives we can save and the faster we get back to normal. This project, like all distributed computing projects, requires more computing power than any one supercomputer could ever do alone. We will need everybody to sign up their computers to contribute to the cause. You can sign up now at https://bit.ly/2xM7mC9. I have had my devices signed up for years and can help you begin, so please know if you need help or have any questions. Just about every desktop, laptop, tablet, and phone can contribute to this project or similar worthy projects. [Edit 1 times, last edit by Dayle Diamond at May 16, 2020 12:53:08 PM] |
