It's a World Community Grid thing. If you donate computer time, you get recognition in the form of badges. People who are working towards their badges became "badgers". I think capslockstuck is responsible for starting it.

We had a similar thing with chimps a while back, but I never understood that one.

I have to open up my PC, to see what can be ghetto'ed.

Zip ties man, zip ties.

A true ghetto PC does not need opening because it was never closed.

Also thank you, I'm not the only one with PCs with Japanese names.
I updated my specs to include all 4 main machines...they all have Japanese names.

I'd do that, but electricity is expensive.

if I let my PC open, the freaking dust will get into my PC in no time at all,
and the sound of the 2500rpm fan being blasted at full speed is not good with it open .

and zip ties is a very good idea, let me see if I can do something about it,

ah,
while you're reminding me, both of my laptops haven't got any name, and Im thinking of a good name.
let me edit my specs for a bit.

My CPU fan runs at 2300RPM and it's not that loud.

Also lol my Dad looked at the network a while ago, he was like "what is all this stuff, what's Hanako? Tsumugi?"

AhokZYashA · Apr 1, 2015

its a pretty low quality fan,
it sounds pretty bad.

I'd help all these people with antiquated hardware, but then I'd be broke...

...well it's not that antiquated, I have a Pentium II board behind me, and a 486 laptop on the floor beside me.

AhokZYashA · Apr 2, 2015

im changing my GPU soon though,
so i just cope with it for a while

de.das.dude · Apr 3, 2015

I wish I had my own PC with me now :cry:
