First energy usage is not watts, second you can look via tools like hwinfo or others how much power your cpu draws. Where did i say it would draw 6.5w at 10%?

Dude go measure your cpu usage while scrolling a site i can watch a high res video with cpu usage under 10% measuring the difference between no active program and only the os is nearly impossible. Why dont you go and log your cpu power for doing this vs only your os running and report back? If your cpu usage keeps being above say 25% while loading a normal site without funky stuff going on, something is weird. Also keep in mind that even if one of your cores is boosting for a second you cpu usage as a whole over time is still low and low power draw at low clocks will benefit you.

Yea exactly, you load a page your cpu will boost for 1% of the time you spend on that page while loading it and then idle at a few Mhz for your os. I dont get the “it doesnt idle”. With a slim linux system it propably idles a lot more than with win11.

If the system is powered the cpu is always doing something. Idle doesnt mean that your pc is off it just means no “real” load. Modern cpus are so powerfull that browsing the web is no real cpu load. It may be a few % difference than just the os itself but windows backround tasks will propably make more impakt on the cpu load.

Enlighten me! When is a cpu idleing?

Ahh yes idle=not using computer and using computer=100% cpu usage. There is no such thing as “reading a pdf document” or “surfing the web”.

The problem is just the infinity fabric that connects the chiplets. Afaik this is because its clock runs at a consstant speed and its made on a way bigger node. The monolithic parts dont have that problem.

Nah all the am4 cpus have abysmal idle power, the am5 got a little better as far as i know but the infinity fabric was a nightmare for the idle power.

Idle power is the only thing they are good at, but for a homeserver a used older cpu is good enough.

You are a absolut genious. You say that it was just “recently” used as a slur and before then a “normal” description. Well have you thought about the fact that when it was used, our society looked at böack people as inferrior, wilds or animals? Hell there were different indigenouss people in fucking zoos up to the 1940-50. Really weird that one would think that the totally neutral word to desscribe black people by others who think they are animals is maybe not that neutral. You propably are one of those people who think there is no language or context in language.

Lol maybe read the wikipedia article about it if you didnt know what the kontext of the word was and how it was used?

Yea fair, i am beginning to get into making hardware work with cobbeling together device trees, i would have guessed that at least after some time the apple hardware would have been known well enough to make it work.

Wich is not x86… also the apple chips are arm so linux should work on them no?

Yea my point was if people stopped using the apps then the big players will lobby the governemt to revert shit like that. But i also think that long term all big players would love to normalize taking your picture to open their app. Every bit of information they can sell is a win for them.

Its not like every industrie can somehow lobby every consumer right away when someone wants to make a new law… oh wait they do…

If the bearing is gone, that wont make it better. Best way would be dissasembly and then turning it to feel if it is bad.

Ok so first if all anlinear electric motor is really expensive all the things that you said that were good about the aérotrain then dont apply annymore.

The amount of thrust you have to generate to stop a decently sized train is huge, that kind of turbine would be super loud and blow tons of debris around. If you brake with biting the rail you will also have lots of wear.

I dont even get why you would need to brake that fast? With a vehicle that heavy you will never be able to brake so fast that you could stop if something happened a hundret meters in fro t of you. And even if you bite down on the rail to stop near instantly the kinetic energy of a few hundret tons moving at lets say 70km/h would just destroy the rail.

Yea no i ddont think that a train with a turbine that uses kerosene is so great. With regeular trains you can recouparate while braking. Why would the aeotrain brake faster than a regular train?

What do you mean? Its not the keybord that can decide if the hardware on the mobo is just a ps2 to internal usb adapter or not.

Ahh ok yea i also do some terminal shenanigans most in gdb to fix all the segfaults i make, git stuff and reading tons of compiler and cmake errors. Most time is spent thinking about what i broke and how, instead of typing.

I am a electrical engineering student in my last semester but i have been working at my position since starting uni. So my work is more low level stuff wirh c/c++, embedded linux and some pcb layouting. I dont think that i would ever use vim, sublime or vscode/vscodium is the sweet spot for me.
