1.4.0

Update to version 1.4.0:

• Introduced 2 advanced options in the app

  • Auto-Stop: Disabling this feature will make it so that chopping will not stop when chef’s PCs are no longer idle and chefs will have to manually stop chopping from the widget. This is valuable for chefs who like to check-in on their chopping session or with cats who like to walk on desks.
  • Crypto mining Opt-out: Opting out of crypto mining makes it so Chef’s PCs will not receive mining workloads*. Chefs who opt-out may experience chopping without earnings until they receive a client workload from our network.
  • Mining workloads may still be used while chopping for brief periods while benchmarking and testing of PCs on the network.

• Fixed an issue where a fresh install of Salad could have hardware disabled by default.

1.3.1

Update to version 1.3.1:

• Fixed a bug within Chopping Power that caused Salad to be unable to calculate if the node met the required minimal storage space.
• Removed the option to disable the container environment setup prompts. As our network has matured, we’ve relied more and more on chef PC’s being container-ready to provide a good earning experience. This is now considered a core part of Salad and the vast majority of chefs have setup the container environment. Chefs will be prompted to set the container environment up if they have not.
• Added better support resources in the container environment setup flow including a QR code that leads to the BIOS Virtualization Enabling guide for chefs who are struggling with this step.
• Added an advanced option to allow Salad to use more RAM for container workloads. This can be found in the Workload Preferences settings and is available to machines which have at least 16 GB of RAM.
• Made multiple updates and fixes to improve the reliability of container workloads.
