Why No PayPal?


From the donation page:

PayPal users: We vastly prefer the other donation methods listed above (due to lower overhead and ease of management), but if you can't contribute to us otherwise, you can now use PayPal. Thanks to the helpful support of the GPU Users Group, they are collecting donations via PayPal for SETI@home, which (after the standard PayPal overhead) is redirected entirely to us for general use or to then purchase specific pieces of hardware. The GPU Users Group is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, so donations made via this method are similarly tax-deductible. If you use this method, there may be a long delay (as much as a month) before you obtain your green star. For more information, or to make a donation through the GPU Users Group, click here.

Thank you for setting this Up.

Most all other BOINC Projects World Wide Support Direct PayPal Donations.

Bummer less than 4 Hours to go and No Tasks.
And now our Hosts sit here with No Work.

Yep! 5-7 Days is a much better time for this being August the Hottest Month of the Year.
At least here in the USA that is. Maybe SETI.Germany Can Rethink this for the Rest of the World.
But we do say this each year and it only falls on deaf ears.

Cryptocurrencies is not something that I would participate in myself, but I know that quite a few do, And if it brings in more funds to the project, then this is a useful initiative that I support.

Same Here, I do wish that Boinc Utopia was still running.


This is how I was Donating to BOINC Projects.

It seems that tasks are harder to get for GPU even when the Server Status shows 648,902

Are their any issues going on with Getting New GPU Tasks?
I can get 4 task to run on one rig with 4 GPUs and then it sits for an hour or more and not get any new task.
While my rig with one GPU has been running all day.
Is their a lowest version of the NVIDIA Driver that we need to run.
On not 1080 Ti Cards I run Driver 373.06 and on my 1080 Ti Rigs Driver 378.92
Thanks for any info.
