Anyone notice the change to the home page? What do you think? They should now start paying out Credit according to the definition of a Cobblestone if they are going to use RAC to determine the amount of processing done in GFLOPs. Grant Darwin NT ID: 1938865 ·

No, I had not noticed that. You've contributed about 2,889.25 credits per day (14.446 GFLOPS) to SETI@home recently. Thanks! The mind is a weird and mysterious place ID: 1938884 ·

I thought I had done some remarkable thing or something to warrant it LOL. I'm putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all, I think, that any conscious entity can ever hope to do.

I discovered this when I went to renew my green star. I couldn't find it in any of the drop down menus either. I had to do a site search to find it. Mission accomplished and hopefully the star will soon reappear. ID: 1939157 ·

Yes, your new star has appeared. For anybody else in the same predicament, you can always reach the donation page by clicking on a displayed green star - your own, if it's still there, or anybody else's. ID: 1939160 ·

I don't recall what the old home page looked like. Am I the only one who doesn't visit the home page? ~Sue~ ID: 1939162 ·

If you were more obsessed about the server status you would. A little OCD goes a long way. ID: 1939165 ·

Last modified: 11 Jun 2018, 21:49:10 UTC The new home page doesn't have a donate button... I couldn't find it in any of the drop down menus either. I think it was always under Project but it should appear in that list of bullet points on the main page in the near future. Thanks for pointing this out. :^) ID: 1939183 ·

Last modified: 14 Jun 2018, 10:47:44 UTC I'm surprised that change was made but no donation in the bullet point list of how to help the project. If it isn't there, I read it as donations not being important, whereas in reality the project would not exist without them; they are very important. Perhaps it will be added later (I hope.)
