It is not the first time it has happened, and then went down again. It's just one of the usual "cycles".
- y4mi 5y agoI don't think we've went through a circle of more then doubling the power consumption before, but I've only been paying attention to it since shortly before 2010, as I was using prebuilt systems before that. Maybe you're right and more then doubling the power consumption is a normal thing that just occasionally happens.
