Speaking of which, my iGPU is now estimated to be getting 120M PPD after a sudden restart. The client really does need to be fixed. :lol:

If I was connected to Lars at the time, I would have obliterated the 780M stats. Maybe that happened to someone else. It would explain why it thinks that this little iGPU gets 1M PPD when it gets barely half that on the best of days.

Unfortunately the LTT forum isn't letting me register. It's a shame because all I wanted to do was ask the Lars owner if he could disable Cloudflare bot detection on api-folding.lar.systems so that I could write a Python script for users who don't want to keep their browser open 24/7 just to contribute to the database.

I have to admit, I don't contribute to LAR very often because I just just close the browser and forget. I appreciate what he is doing, I just have to remind myself not to close the browser when I'm contributing.

That's exactly why I'd like to make a Python script to do that. It could run in the background and you could forget about it, and, whenever FAH is running, it could automatically connect to it and send data (while also doing sanity checks to ensure that it doesn't upload faulty data, and I can implement reliable sanity checks for the most common problems pretty easily).

But alas, the API is behind Cloudflare.
