	Did you bother reading all of "somebody"'s posts before replying? In
another message (not the one you're replying to), he said:

"In short, just turn off your PC at night and donate part of the savings
to your favourite research. It would probably be more beneficial for all."

	So he's certainly not against donating money. And I snipped some of the
context - but his point was that if all the people running these
software instead donate money to support running a _dedicated_ cluster,
 then the calculations may be more efficient.

	I don't necessarily (dis)agree, and the two aren't mutually exclusive.
