This is the stupidest way to power computers. Gas powered computers? Wtf lol
This is not the steampunk world I wished for man.
Natural gas power plants are one of the most efficient and clean in terms of COP.
there is no such thing as a gas powered computer. Maybe they meant a gas powered plant that would transmit electricity.
there is no gas powered computer, that's the equivalent of saying I can make weed out of plutonium.
I can't even look at the page because these corporate shills have to track me one way or another, it's probably just coorporate propaganda.
