Say 'Climate Crisis'

Agreed, especially for gaming PC. On laptops and generic PC I think there could be a bigger swing, but also you'd need a USB port capable of pushing 30w which is not a standard feature by any means in a PC/laptop.

Counter point. Most computer power supplies have a curve to their charging efficiency (somewhere north of 50% load). If your PC is substantially below the peak of that curve, then adding load (the phone) could raise the PSU's efficiency say from 80 to 85% (I'm making up numbers) which would affect the overall efficiency of the entire PC's load.

I think your answer is still probably correct, but it's an interesting nuance to think about.

Side notes: Some PSU's use gallium, e.g., Corsair ax1600i, though by and large most do not. Also if your in the EU then your working with 220/240v PSU's which adds more efficiency, but that would apply to the phone charger as well.

Sisal carpet is better than rope for cats is my understanding. There are some places online that sell carpet remnants for cats. You can just hot glue the carpet to a cardboard tube on or an existing cat post.

In oatmilk the sugar and oil are optional ingredients for taste and texture. Almost all oatmilk brands contain salt for taste.

I've only found one brand that uses three ingredients, oat water salt. They charge a premium for it, but it's the best tasting one I've found.

The dye is derived from coal tar. Granted that is not its final form, but I can see where the crunchy moms you describe have some reservations. I can understand the preference for a dye that is derived from a source that is not a known carcinogen to rule out any ambiguity in the refinement process.

So what your saying is they should have put the tennis courts on top of the sand dunes to stabilize them.

Front doors have always had mechanical latch releases. Rear doors on some models do not have mechanical releases.

I just don't want to get sick. I get sick from catching other peoples airborne illnesses in public. I wear a mask in public to reduce that risk. It's not that complicated.

Fwiw my childhood indoor/outdoor cat lived to 19 whereas my indoor only cats got terminal cancer at 13. But generally speaking I believe you are correct.

 

Polling the community here. Please share your experience with pet insurance providers in the USA. The good, the bad and the in-between. If not from the USA, please list the country.

Do they accept older cats? Recently adopted cats from a shelter? Preexisting conditions? How much is the premium? Etc.

Hi c/health. I setup a new community called !transplant@lemmy.world A community to discuss solid organ transplants. And a sister community at !transplant@kbin.social You don't need a transplant to join.
