You tell him not to take things so seriously, but you go off flaming him and calling him gay. I think you need to listen to your own advice.

Global cooling and warming events have occurred in the past; however, do you think it is a coincidence that the next warming event appears to be occurring at the peak of the industrial revolution, after many years of relative climate stability? Leave it to the climatologists, or become one. We don’t really have a clue…

As a matter of fact I expected most people to get shellshocked at the 200 euro figure, which buys you 3 games and a year long Xbox Live subscription easily :X

you fall within the percentile of people who over exagerate situations like consoles being left on… sorry dumbass.. but an air conditioner during the summer months consumes 3x the amount of what a stupid console would… so don’t pull your fucking Al Gore bullshit up on this board because you think that it’s going to do anything. They’re Their… doesn’t matter… I was speaking in the tense of it being more than just 1…

Which was the only point I was trying to make actually

I’m not going to soapbox about TVs on standby or lights being left on an hour too long, but willingly spending 200 euro a year in energy that the NSA supercomputers could both buy and use so much more efficiently?

It’s not like either F@H or R@H have any realistic chance of success if you look into the project details.

mankind is fucking things up very badly and some want to lable it as ‘hippie fag’ stuff. I don’t hug trees, but I also don’t see the need to idle my car unnessecarily (sp?) or leave the lights on for no reason.

Except acid rain and the holes in the ozone layer are still problems.

Global warming is, I think, at least partially a hoax (the planet’s had two ice ages… that wasn’t “global cooling”). But that doesn’t change the fact that we’re screwing up the damn planet.

Nope got to agree in part with Cage on this one, it certainly is not being caused by the Human population as this ain’t the first time it has happened and we ain’t been here forever (unless you are some poor misguided creationist, but I don’t even want to get into a conversation about that nonsense).

We are maybe contributing towards it.

But this is not the picture that gets painted, in fact in most places it doesn’t even get a look in thanks once again to a world full of bleeding hearted fucking hippies.

Cunts.

I’m not a ‘young chap’ bub.. And i’m not misguided. I for one took the time to read in on the matter instead of following the media blindley, as you do obviously.
But to each his own. You go pay some more greenhouse taxes now, and save the world with the standby button off! My hero..

Nah, the general public are tools and as such the majority don’t deserve salvation (not to be confused with the salvation offered by stupid dogmatic brainwashing religions, sorry i’m agnostic).

Because I frequent this site on a daily basis and have done for some time. As such I feel it is my right to read any article posted and submit any comments voicing my opinion (unless otherwise stated by the administrators and only the administrators of the actual site).

So as for the point you have made you can refer to one of the two points in my previous post and see which one you think applies (I’ll give you a clue, it ain’t the fact that I bought the 360 to play games).

All sorted? Good, now fuck you very much.

Why is everyone obsessed with that global warming swindle? They are using scare politics to make us believe we are the source of the global warming when infact it’s not the CO2 causing the warming but the warming causing the CO2. The warming is just due to an increase in solar activity which will be at its peak between 2010 and 2012 (source is nasa. look it up on their page).
They used scare politics before (acid rain and hole in ozon layer). Ever heard anything about those things in the last 5 to 10 years? All of a suddon these problems are gone? Or did they even exist? you be the judge..
Do you really think that humans can influence nature that bad? It’s just a big scam so they can raise taxes because you’re destroying the earth and have to pay for it, when infact it’s not even our fault.
Of all the ‘air’ on this world only 0,04% is CO2 and humans only produce 3% of the 0,04%. Most of that human intervention is due to the amaricain army. Changing your lightbulbs and turning of the standby mode on your tv isn’t going to influence that at all.
Don’t let them fool you..

Kinetic, you somehow find a way to be negative about practically every story on here. Of course, this is someone who thought the name Kinetic Fart was probably very clever as opposed to the childish stupidity it actually is. Calling someone a hippie, a fag, or a hippie fag really won’t bother too many people. It just makes you seem like the true tool you really are.
Thank you, good bye now.

What a cool idea.As for the power consumption if the consoles were on anyway isn’t it better to be folding proteins and potentially saving real lives than shooting gangster and saving virtual lives?!

By: trj156

trj156 — Tue, 03 Apr 2007 14:51:10 +0000

you fall in the percentile of people who don’t know which form of “their” to use.

i agree with curry, all this effort all over the world to reduce power consumption and then a bunch of game consoles being left on. although, a cure for HIV would be great, there are tons of people with it.

Whoa there tree huggin hippie boy… chill out on the greenhouse politics… Maybe you should read they’re comment again… they were saying “sure why not help, these consoles consume alot of energy…” - you know half of the arguments from people alone would be eliminated if they would just pay attention… oh yeah… by the way i don’t see anywhere in they’re statement that they’re comment said anything about it being a “crap argument” - you fall within the percentile of people who shoot they’re mouth off before actually seeing what the person is talking about…

I use my 360 a lot for streaming music/videos, if something of this nature could be run at the same time, while my box is on but the CPU is relatively idle, I would definitely go for it!

How about, fuck it I bought my 360 to play games.

Compared to the cost of designing and building the super computer (paid for by the donations of ~$50 pp) instead of using the 360’s or PS3s which already exist, exactly how much better off would you be? Id say it was still better to build on whats already available. There are only going to be more and more Xboxs and PS3’s made. Use them (I know my PS3 is folding hard while im, well, not working hard at work).

By: Ne5suNo

Ne5suNo — Tue, 03 Apr 2007 12:13:26 +0000

Ok now i m agree with you, but i think we could do both ways.Donate and use the wasted power of the xbox (like when we are downloading content) for the folding. Absolutely not using that power and keep the xbox on only for the folding.
