Agreed, I wouldn't accept 2c/h for something that runs at full power and drains the battery. But if the thing runs only when the phone is connected to a charger (& wifi if it needs to communicate), then it's slightly less nonsensical. Also, could be a use for old phones that otherwise would just gather dust in a drawer or be thrown in the trash. Of course, if they pay for compute performance (for some suitable definition of performance) rather than just cpu-hours old phones will be less power efficient. -- Janne Blomqvist _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit https://beowulf.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
