Countries that emit are top emitters, shocking news
Damage
People are interesting, "average" is a misleading concept, you can find quirks and intriguing oddities in pretty much anyone. Perhaps you're frequenting the wrong circles in regards to what interests you.
Lol, don't know what to say
Those kind of people would have behaved the same anyway, copy pasting from the internet or wasting others' time some different way.
I guess we could argue whether giving them AI will act as a multiplier for their damage output or will reduce it because the AI will be savvier than them, but personally I don't see things changing much.
I wouldn't know, my drives are in RAIDZ and I'm always seeding Linux ISOs, so they never spin down.
I'll go against the grain here: I'm not worried. If you actually care about what you do, even vibe coding can teach you something, it could be a starting point. The internet is not going away, and just looking up this or that thing the AI spit out will help you learn what you're working with.
Is it the same as an uni CS course? No of course, but how many of us got our start just tinkering with stuff we didn't understand?
Wireguard is quite magic itself
I had an embedded Celeron server, passively cooled with 1 hard drive and 2 SSD which used to idle in the range you mentioned, measured at the outlet... It had a random PSU that came with the mini case it was in.
Realistically, how low do you aim to go? Disks for example add a lot of wattage.
It's possible but honestly it's a bit off-putting to me.
For scheduled actions I use the Scheduler addon:
It's mostly for covers and awnings, I don't schedule lights on and off, I enable their motion sensors depending on the time of day, but that's a more complex automation and I wrote it in Node-RED, which to me is a cleaner approach than the automation system in HA.
The Scheduler has the advantage of being wife-accessible too!
Eh I'm from Italy, we've always been a little behind on computing (despite arguably creating the first PERSONAL computer), so I was the only kid I knew who had one, but in hindsight I was lucky.
If it lost 90% of its value, it'd still be overvalued
Maybe they hoped for someone more competently evil?
