  • Do you have any idea what your hardware is actually pulling from the outlet? Maybe it’s not that bad after all?

    Mine is pulling around 55W from the wall in its “normal” state. Meaning two 3.5" HDDs spun up, and a bunch of light services running. Which is squarely in “not great, not terrible” territory.

    Apart from flipping the power saver switch on the mainboard I haven’t done anything to save power. I haven’t checked if that’s doing anything either. It’s a 3rd gen core i5 iirc, which isn’t great at idle power consumption, so maybe that switch is doing something…

    I also haven’t had any luck with getting the drives to spin down reliably anyways, and afaik it’s better for them to just stay spinning so I haven’t bothered much to change that.

    Das ist tatsächlich der allerbeste Zeitpunkt. Habe aber oft keinen Bock nachm duschen.

    Alternativ hilft es einen Waschlappen mit heißem Wasser nass zu machen und den vorher auf dem Bart/Wasauchimmer zu drücken.

    Das geht ein wenig in die selbe Richtung.












  • I’ve yet to ride a carbon frame for any amount of real distance, so idk how good they actually are.

    But having a less harsh ride can also be archived by not using the thinnest pizza cutter tires at 10 bar. Especially if we care about time ridden and not avg. speed.

    And it’s going to be slightly harder to get the same speed out of comfy tires, so that’s also more exercise.
