So which crypto do you use at the grocery store?
If nobody wanted to use crypto, energy usage (excess or otherwise) wouldn’t be an issue.

Big picture, you’re encouraging people to use this fake money by taking part in it. And it usually uses a lot of energy to do it.
Ironically, you could use the meme template to say that somehow
In the US, it’s made by Hershey. At least the bigger complaint about that company is chocolate that’s not nearly as good as opposed to points at everything
Or just… Not have 500000 partners in the first place
no significant competition? Is that a joke?
For the type of service they are (hosting random one-off videos and series that anyone can load and optionally kicking back a portion to the content creators) - who are they competing against? If you go on the street and ask random people to name 3 streaming services that do that, you’ll likely get YouTube, “ummm”, and “I dunno”
It’s a git gat bar!
99.999% (or whatever) of the time cars are used to go from A to B and there’s no real thought about it. How many people do you really think make backups for purely personal storage redundancies? This feels more like grape juice and yeast kits (or whatever) from the prohibition era.
To be fair, the context here has nothing to do with the movie, just the spelling being done for funsies. But it’s still a fun watch.
May I recommend the movie Idiocracy to you? You will be one of today’s lucky 10,000
Is it really that hard to write the word “north”? Is that even what nth is supposed to mean? I keep reading it as the mathematical “1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th…, nth” and it makes my head hurt
Yeah, “air conditioning powered by solar/wind/hydro” can feel like it’s one big Rube Goldberg machine to make air cool, but the reality is that it comes together to make something that can scale really easily. I can’t imagine coming up with a design like what’s in OP for an apartment complex or condo building.

How are we on your/you’re corrections around here? And for that matter, its/it’s
Bitcoin alone accounts about half a percent of the world’s electricity usage. Even if “demand on your local grid is low”, that doesn’t mean supply of renewables alone is necessarily high, especially if that happens overnight when solar output is low and a fossil plant is keeping things running. In that case we could have just as easily, you know… Not feed a ponzi scheme.
PS: if you think an arbitrary metal would have solved the world’s economic problems if only we stuck with it, I’ve got bad news for ya.
