jealous? nay. If I cared at all I'd do the same thing.

That's what every says. Your just jealous.

folding@home is nice and it's productive.

folding? what does that even mean.

google is your friend, it less words than I wish to type. u dl a program made by stanford that uses your computer or PS3 to folds protein to help them understand diseases better

Protein folding is the physical process by which a polypeptide folds into its characteristic and functional three-dimensional structure.[1]

Each protein begins as a polypeptide, translated from a sequence of mRNA as a linear chain of amino acids. This polypeptide lacks any developed three-dimensional structure (the left hand side of the neighboring figure). However each amino acid in the chain can be thought of having certain 'gross' chemical features. These may be hydrophobic, hydrophilic, or electrically charged, for example. These interact with each other and their surroundings in the cell to produce a well-defined, three dimensional shape, the folded protein (the right hand side of the figure), known as the native state. The resulting three-dimensional structure is determined by the sequence of the amino acids.[2] The mechanism of protein folding is not completely understood.

Experimentally determining the three dimensional structure of a protein is often very difficult and expensive. However the sequence of that protein is often known. Therefore scientists have tried to use different biophysical techniques to manually fold a protein, that is, to predict the structure of the complete protein from the sequence of the protein.

For many proteins the correct three dimensional structure is essential to function.[3] Failure to fold into the intended shape usually produces inactive proteins with different properties (details found under prion). Several neurodegenerative and other diseases are believed to result from the accumulation of misfolded (incorrectly folded) proteins.[4]

we could make a folding@home team and join the competition

Well I said I wasn't home so I just put the auto clicker on....

im off to bed, good nite

Your so jealous. GAWD just quit it.

lol wat?

that post is telling you what's up and hey seeing you are a internet noob and don't know what folding@home is, you don't have to watch it, you start a Work Unit and it does it's thing then uploads to Stanford.
