do some folding?
(https://foldingathome.org/?lng=en)
Or some BOINCing.
I boinc in an LXC container with a cron job to run during the period in the day on weekdays when the electricity is pretty much all renewables (and I'm not watching Jellyfin). The intention is to turn sunlight into tiny forward progress towards curing cancer.
Specifically, the Community Grid projects Mapping Cancer Markers and Smash Childhood Cancer.
thats really great.
Im currently saving up on a new roof of an older farm building, and depending on the utilities I can come up I will put solar panels on it.
I am really thinking how to utilize the extra power, this one sounds like a great addition to an business concept for downtimes.
