So I wanna uber-up my pointage in teh dimeage.

How do you guys go around getting more borgs? Screw the rules and don't ask permission? Screw your energy bill and just set up all your old rigs?

"Hey I got this program that makes your processor run at max temperature and max energy consumption but it's really good for us and I get these points" LOL (yes I know dimes doesn't touch the cpu)

Any advice? I could probably borg everyone's pc that I know since they wouldn't know any other tray icons among their trillion dell freebies :rolleyes:

I just simply say that by installing this program your computer is helping to move forward research in X, and I get points for doing it.

Then I mention something about consider it a small favor for me just removing 5 million viruses/spywares from your computer.

I actually haven't borged any rigs for DIMES than my own, but for FAH I just tell the people that they have extra cpu cycles to spare all the time and my team needs those for a really good cause and if they have any problems I will take it off which, of course, hasn't happened. But I'm going to have to do SOMETHING to catch back up with kole since he passed me the other day.

NetDimes uses so little power, I would run it on a Ppro no questions asked

I just run DC projects on computers I own (for the most part).

One of these days I'll have to ask the local school district if they'd like to spare a few CPU cycles for F@H. ;)
