But shooting down a dragon the size of New York Island with an 80-meter tall Roman ballerina mecha launched out of a railgun is awesome
Do you know what's better than that though? Massed ranks of onagers and ballistae firing so many ballerinas at the dragon it blots out the sun.
HO HO HO~

You could always say, "Hey, I'm a tech savvy person, and I know how to save you money." That'll open most ears and get you what you want.

Yeah, I'd agree with you there if they're going to be buying a new round of computers anytime in the future, but as-is there's no reason for them to do the changeover .-.

If I were to guess at a number ~<3, I'd go with e.

I need to learn how to stream because corruption streaming sounds damn fun.

I installed linux screen and made a script that logs my power consumption once every minute! :D

I'm kinda worried about the power usage -- if it's on all the time, would it suck too much power so that my family's electricity bill becomes a lot higher?

This particular video wasn't even a corruption. Just a really really shitty game :D

It's probably more expensive to run your fridge.

In other news, I will soon be able to get rid of this craptop after all these years. Soon I will finally be able to work through my Steam backlog.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Electricity bills are per kwh (kilowatt hour) used. :P

So yeah. The longer you have it on, the more power it consumes. :V Varying per electric device, there are those that suck a ton of 'power' to work, and there are those which only use a tiny, tiny fraction (lookin' at you, LED. :I) and becomes super efficient!  :D

My home computer is rated for 700w but by disabling the graphics card for doing server work my box only burns 200w/hr and equates to 50 cents a day to run it.

Huh. So a whole $37.50 (ish) difference in your monthly bill. I wonder what other things can be "downgraded" around the house...
