> I'm calling out people who get upset at the idea of a computer doing "wasteful" work, when that wasteful work has no meaningful impact on latency, responsiveness, power draw, etc. But who gets to make that call? For every person out there who complaints that using voice chat in Discord on a MacBook Pro on battery causes the chassis to heat up, fans to kick into turbo boost, and the battery to dwindle — but only when using the .app, not when using the website through Firefox, there's another person who says "oh, but my computer doesn't do that". So then everybody who has a similar complaint as the first person is branded a liar and whiner.
