I just posted about this in another thread, but I thought it might be worth its own. For those of you that don't know, you can donate your computer's processing power to several things. Cryptocurrency is the main one. However, if you have some beefy hardware and feel like doing a good deed for the day, maybe you'd consider checking out Folding@Home. I'll leave a short description below as well as a link to the reddit thread that is most commonly used for more information.
"Folding@Home is a project by the Stanford University that uses our computing power to help study the process of protein folding so as to aid research on various diseases, including many forms of cancer, Alzheimer's, Huntington's, and Parkinson's. It is basically a big distributed supercomputer, and you can contribute a node!"
