There was a comment on reddit from a guy who moved to a new apartment and didn't have heating yet. He realized his laptop would get really hot when playing Skyrim, especially when there were fire animations to render. So he put a fireplace and a bunch of torches in his Skyrim house and was literally warming himself next to artificial fire.
Idk if you're just being a jerk or what but I'm gonna assume you're being serious - the expectation might be the person trying to be responsible would say "that's a stupid excuse" but instead they sit down and join the gaming person to stay warm. The joke is basically that the person chooses comfort over responsibility.

I literally started doing folding at home at full power when mine went out.

Protein folding is more or less a solved problem now. Better run something else.

My heating is fixed anyway.

Did this last year when my heat went out.
Opened up comfyUI and started churning some AI slop on the gaming rigs to keep the place warm.
Edit: autocorrupt changed heat to brain for some reason?

Your brain goes out frequently, so it just assumed.

Is that last panel supposed to add something to the comic? Is there a joke there I'm missing? Seems wasted to me.

As usual, most Web comics benefit from being one or two panels shorter.

Been a lot of shitty comics round these parts lately lol. Just semi-slightly relatable non-jokes

Run BOINC. At least those watt/hours of energy will go to something good.

Barely any good BOINC options out there anymore. Most are either shut down or not accepting work atm.
