Electricity isn’t free, and neither is it’s impact on your computer hardware. The life expectancy of a circuit may reasonably be approximated as a function of watt-hours. this is why hardware manufactuers test their circuits in ovens: the heat simulates high wattage.

it doesn’t matter if the power drain is low. So long as your computer is on, it’s lifetime watt-hours are constantly ticking down.

Ah yes, the greek hydra of IT. Disable one policy, two more shall take it’s place.

Imagine sentences being any more than n+1 bytes

We’ve come a long way. Once upon a time, It might’ve said “Linux is only free if you don’t value your time.”

The entire thread is hilarious.

“I had to remove my laptop’s battery, now Windows won’t update.”

“Are you using a laptop or desktop?”

“I said I am using a laptop without a battery.”

“Please share a screenshot of your device manager, so I can make sure whether or not you are using a laptop or desktop.”

“Fine.” (Posts screenshot)

I don’t know anything about Plex, but I know people have written scripts for migrating Jellyfin databases and installations. Are there no scripts like that for Plex?

import numpy as np

temp = np.array([22, 21, 25, 23])
sd_temp = np.std(temp, ddof=1)
print(sd_temp)

Vs

temp <- c(22, 21, 25, 23)
sd(temp)

How in the world is R more clunky than python?
