My Day 

My computer is currently scanning for aliens.

This will give you a cool-looking screensaver, while it uses your computer to process the data retrieved by SETI, which is cool.

Of course, if you want to do something more...useful, then you can pick several other apps, such as Rosetta@home, which studies proteins of major diseases to try to cure them, or Docking@home, which does similar work.

I have a suggestion, however. If you get this, make sure you change the default CPU usage, because the default is "Always On" at "100%". Otherwise, it'll keep overheating and freezing your computer (it's kinda funny that one leads to the other).

Your computer should be able to run all day at 100% usage.

If it can't, it's as if you bought a microwave that stops whenever you set it to full power.

Check your computer's cooling system for stopped fans and dust bunnies.
