Imo :) being “one unenlightened person among many” is the definition of being ‘enlightened’.

Sorry, these two characters are very strange. I think they were used by a different group of Chinese national that is no longer existed. They were killed by the Mongos over night. No one knew what they meant anymore!

@ChiDragon why are 2 lines in the colour blue?


Please don't just extract something out of a thread then ask questions. It will lose its continuity of the thoughts.

Except   for the 'data storage '    - that consumes a  lot more power

AI Overview
 
'' Data centers globally consumed approximately 240 to 340 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity in 2022. Projections for 2025 range from 600 TWh to 1,050 TWh, depending on the scenario. This energy consumption is driven by the increasing demand for cloud computing, AI, and other digital services.

... including the storage of all your undeleted  photos, emails and texts . 
 
1 TWh = 1 trillion watts per hour .

I read somewhere that emails and texts are not a problem and need not be deleted; the  problem is in the stored photos.

I don't see why .... as they are 'stored' as well , but probably  don't need  such a big 'box' . 

 

I was a juror once and we were presented with  phone conversations  and text records of the accused .  I assumed he was already under suspicions and someone had applied to a judge for a 'phone tap ' .  Nah, old school . 

 

They wait until you are caught and then go into the old records . That seems to suggest that every phone converse and text you ever made is in storage somewhere . 

 

But don't hold me to any of that ... I am  a 'LoTech'  . 

 

 

Its ALL on record Coby .... EVERTHING  !
