OK...I pay for the damn electricity, screw these damn tree-hugging liberal dipshits that keep powering down my folding boxen.

I swear, I'm gonna fire the next "greenie" who turns off my equipment.

Bastiches.
 
I find a well sharpened stick to be a good training tool when dealing with people who mean ill will towards my folding boxen. :D

I setup three dual quad xeon 2.5s in our engineering offices (elec included in rent) and have been RDPing to them to configure them for a client...I work about 45 minutes away in my other office.

Two of them were powered down today and I didn't discover it until this evening, so I lost a whole day of folding and an entire evening of remote work.

I hate tree huggers. ;)

There's an easy fix to that...unhook the lead to the power button :D

No no no...they'll just pull the plug. You need to add a wire that puts a charge through the power button. That'll teach em! :D

I prefer the purely verbal solution of; "If you ever do that again I'll shove my boot so far up your ass you'll be chewing on toes."

mmmm....whoop ass.
Even better than bacon. :D
 
I find threatening people with cacti to be a very good deterrent. Especially when it involves sodomy.:eek:

Green isn't associated with left or right, liberal or conservative.

I hear you though. My wife turned off my boxen once. Why do we have nuclear power plants if not to fold? Solar, wind, coal, geothermal, hydro it should all be for folding.

 
...cactus sodomy...you are an evil man.
I like it. ;)

Perhaps you are correct, but the jury is still out....however, liberal is always associated with dipshit.
 
Tough love. Sometimes its the only way. But when you do it right, you only have to do it once. :D

Of course I'm evil. I've been practicing at it for decades now. Besides, being evil pretty much never fails to get you what you need if it's important enough. Not to mention it's plain old fun.

 
Good point Smoke.

Evil will always triumph because good is dumb.


 
No, I can't agree...but old age and treachery will always defeat youth and exuberance.
 
Cactus Sodomy

Now that's a band name if I've ever heard one.
 
Digital Cactus Sodomy, the new gaming or folding computer brand:rolleyes:;)

Step 1: Make sure the cord is protected...
Step 2: Wrap barbed wire, carefully, around the power cord.

Problem fix'd?

No....

After assembling a drum circle and eating many vegan burritos they will eventually figure out that they can cut it off :rolleyes:


Just put a sign next to the boxen:

Barbed wire around the entire room. Then we don't have to worry about power switches or cords. Then booby trap the fuse box.
 
Wow :eek:Mr. relic I almost fell out of my chair laughing about you're post. It's important to me that I was not laughing at you, but laughing with you. It's really suprising how many people in this world think they have a "God given right" to mind your business and everybody elses except their own :rolleyes:

Without cloaking myself in pious martyrdom and getting all "tear jerky" I really can't discribe how fortunate I feel to be able to associate with the people that went to such extreme unselfishness to increase their folding ability during the Chimp Challenge (on all teams) and I was completely serious when I thanked you for letting me fold for team 33. It's really amazing to read how a "top draw heavy hitter folder", whether it be male or female, that has a zillion pernts say it's not me that's wining it's the people we are folding for that are the real winners.

Enough digression, I went way over my 15 word or less. :rolleyes:

 
Not for us, but for them, JWS.

We have a lot of world to change....thanks for helping.
Fold on.

Sounds like some sort of drink you would make with cactus cooler and 151

edit: I still don't see why someone would just turn off a computer that isn't theirs. What if you were doing something that was of monetary importance, had invaluable unsaved work, etc. I know that folding really IS important, but it's possible that there is really critical work that they don't know about.

That's the part that I can't understand.

Wife does not come near my computer (unless it's to look at a web page) and even then she opens a new window, uses it, and then closes it.

Never mess with a mans stereo, never mess with a geeks boxen

 
If they do that to me here, it's twice as insulting since all our electricity is being producted without too much environemental impact (windmill power and hydro power make up 95% of our production and we sell excess to the northeastern part of USA). I pay, I decide what to do with my electricity ;)
