"Six States Responsible Enough to Limit Computer Power Consumption" Anyone prioritizing their video game performance over the starvation, water wars, crop failures, climate refugees, underwater cities, deserts replacing farmland, and normalization of cat 5 hurricanes that will surely come if we don't handle this situation correctly, is an ethical cripple. And anyone, who just has to have that superburner computer, of an age not likely to live until 2060 is just borrowing on a future they know they won't repay. And it's not like you can't wait 4 years and have a computer using a couple hundred wats that performs like today's 1000 watt gargantuan.
