  1. Random money saving tip.
    Many libraries have added kill o watt meters to their collection. This can help you track down horribly inefficient electrical items, to at least let you limit the amount of time you run them.

  3. Silly question:

    Is it safe to bet that watching or listening in 2x save power consumption?

    If you watch a video "faster" and, consequently, turn off the screen faster, since the video ended in half the time (2x), then that would reduce the battery consumption of the device.

  4. Finally got the power envelope under 25 watts for the entire #homelab. This project took a few weeks in my spare time, but rising electricity costs finally pissed me off enough.

  5. ... ⬆️
    With additional Helpers. Each charging station now features 5 additional sensors that display actual charging and discharging power, as well as energy calculations.
    I need to write a blog post about my findings...

  8. How to measure the power consumption of a process?

    Asking for a friend.

  9. Just overheard 2 tech experts explaining that generating an AI image takes as much power as we can find in an ordinary smart phone battery. 😮 How many Apple Intelligence emojis I would be able to generate with an iphone 15 pro then?

  10. "ERCOT CEO Pablo Vegas said that the grid operator is projecting Texas will need to nearly double the current capacity of 85 gigawatts to 150 gigawatts by 2030. This huge uptick in projected demand, he said, is driven in large part by rapid expansion of new Bitcoin mining facilities and AI data centers that suck up tons of electricity. "
