tous Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Eric, find out who manufactured the monitor, discover who the CEO is and show up at his house every morning and tell him, Hey, dumb ass! Your carbon foot print is too big! You're destroying the damned planet! I'm telling Greta on you! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be surprised if most, if not all newer monitors aren't doing something similar. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I miss some larger ones than that that were a great place to set leftover pizza. It would still be warm several days later when you finally got around to finishing it. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huaco Kid Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 A recent iphone update has a "Clean Energy Charging" toggle. It knows were you are, and if google decides that that area doesn't have enough clean energy capability, it'll only partially charge your phone. Because, like, you love the world and wouldn't want dirty electricity in your phone. (The default is "on". You can shut it off (?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know you using clean energy when the lights go out on a very cloudy, but windless day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
