Any electrical engineers out there? My current thoughts on it: - Power transmission to homes would be less efficient than to datacenters - Datacenter design can allow for better efficiency & build in energy generation - Datacenters = higher utilisation, less wasted resources.https://twitter.com/Hoigwai/status/1153582035971129344 …
Still, I'd be very surprised if 300W for a PS4 Pro or, eh, 500W for a gaming PC is less energy than streaming, esp given the inefficiency of distributing that much hardware & only having like, uh 5% utilisation of it (by time)?
