    video games are basically software that turns electricity into heat.

    your reply in no way addresses this fundamental point.

    The entire market is growing year over year, requiring more power each generation. Do the math, it’s pretty easy.

    ditto. even if we only worry about the heat generated, and not the power sourced (assuming your 100% renewable which is not realistic today) - we still have a problem.

      In this particular case, the protestors are complaining about oil, not power use or heat generation, so your fundamental point isn’t really valid

        yes yes we only have a single problem to worry about, thank goodness.

        oh wait, no… that’s not, actually, the case at all. not even closely.

        thanks for your comment tho bellend, when the human race cooks itself this will be a great example of how we saw it coming, but didn’t give a fuck.

            yeah, keep sticking your head further into the ground. like there’s a right place to remind people we’re cooking the planet.

            got kids? they’re going to despise you if so, you couldn’t even be bothered to give two shits about their future.
