LLM cost of Energy

One 5-second AI clip burns more power than an hour of microwaving.

MIT Technology Review did the math on AI and energy. Making one five-second AI video took about 3.4 million joules of electricity. One 5-second AI video uses about as much power as running a microwave for over an hour. A high-quality AI image, by comparison, takes about 4,402 joules.

The same estimate puts a session of 15 questions, 10 images and three short AI videos at about 2.9 kilowatt-hours. The data centers behind AI cartoons, fake photos and clips still draw much of their electricity from fossil fuels. In the US, coal and gas make up just under 60% of the power supply. Google says a typical text prompt to its Gemini AI uses only 0.24 watt-hours. OpenAI puts an average ChatGPT prompt at 0.34 watt-hours.

It is often a hunt to find the PPE gloves which perfectly suit your riding style

Never give up and always keep looking

Proper PPE is vital when you operate race machines as I do

These achievements I've been able to pull of in just a couple of days.

To do this amount of cycling within urban areas & only reaching rural areas for about 30% of the time in 40° Celsius Heat is quite an achievement

Libre Office got a massive download increase after the announcement that it has full 100% privacy built-in

# No LLM AI hallucinated slop included

This is a great feature.

For me it's logical. Others running from LLM slop in microslop are coming in droves

Libre Office is LLM free

Thanks to the wonderful Italian internet friends I have here I started to pay attention to Sweet drinks in the liquor form made in Italy.

Today I Learned about the sweet taste of Sambuca

I will not attempt to describe the taste flavour and aroma to you, that's not the point of this toot.

The point is that thanks to the power of the FediVerse I've today learned about the existence of Sambuca de Italia

TIL about the existence of IzzyOnDroid a fast repo for Open Source Android apps which scans github repos automatically and thus gives you built apps faster than fdroid.

I found IzzyDroid via catima.app which was mentioned to me a couple of days ago.

Some truth about using simple tech on race / MTB bikes as much as possible and the downside of too much modern (carbon) tech

I love disk brakes e.g but only use cabled systems, for simple cheap maintanance. I love square BB for the same reasons
