Comment on Las Vegas' dystopia-sphere, powered by 150 Nvidia GPUs and drawing up to 28,000,000 watts, is both a testament to the hubris of humanity and an admittedly impressive technical feat | PC Gamer

I don’t know why I’m arguing with a troll, but maybe someone else will read this:

“I alone can’t change anything” is a premature excuse to shift responsibility to others. But you are responsible for your life and your actions. Be a good role model because you can!
Our survival as a species is at stake in the medium term, our coexistence and our democracy are threatened. There is no CO2 budget left, we need to globally stop emissions immediately. Every ton counts, every decimal point, because at 2.6 degrees humanity does not cease to exist, it just suffers even more than at 2.59 degrees.
There are big destroyers, we all know them by now. At the same time, even if these corporations disappeared immediately, we would still exceed the 1.5 degree target just through our reckless diet. Why do you push this responsibility away? 5% is a lot when we actually need to be at 0% to not drop into chaos. We need to change on all levels and as you most likely won’t blow up a pipeline, you can start with your diet right now: At the next shopping trip, save 2/3 of the land area, water consumption, and CO2 emissions. Instead, you argue because you simply want to keep eating cheese sandwiches. Sounds pretty cynical and pathetic to me.
