UK enlists world's help to predict climate [computer modeling]

AI Thread Summary
A significant global initiative is being launched in the UK to predict climate change impacts for the century. This effort aims to harness online computing power to enhance climate modeling and forecasting. While some participants express enthusiasm for the project, others prefer to continue supporting existing initiatives like Folding@home, which focuses on biomedical research. The discussion highlights the importance of collaborative efforts in addressing climate change while acknowledging individual choices in supporting various scientific endeavors.

So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
