An obvious solution for a power hungry avatar

Comment comment by stopgap on 11 December 2006

That is why those people will be harvested to provide energy for virtual entities such as avatars. If my calculations are correct, a properly reconfigured person from a developing country can provide up to 100W of power yet at the same time gladly relinquishing 2400 kWh of energy thanks to the reconfiguration. At this rate by harnessing the power of their own bodies every single person in a developing country will live a more prosperous and fulfilling life through a virtual avatar.
