How harmful is it for my PC and its parts if I leave it on for two or more at a time?
I'm only home three weekends a month and my computer stays idle for weeks at a time, would it hurt the lifespan of my parts?
I live in a warm climate if it matters.
It's bad
Two or more at a time eh?
Yeah that's bad. That's REALLY bad.

Not really its less harmful then turning them on and off multiple times.
The bad part is that hard drives and psu's have an average time to live while powered on, when that average time runs out they "usually" break.
Other then that the only problems are power outages and storms (easy to fix if you have a Smart UPS)
no computers are living breathing animals that require 8 hours of sleep a night or else they'll die
completely fine. Just check for dust in a while so that it doesn't overheat. Sounds like a waste of electricity though. Got something running in the background?
I've had my computer on for 2 years straight. Occasional monthly restart.
