I'd rather my CPU to be idle and not consome much power
- imp0cat 2y agoIt depends. There is a lot of devices with quite capable cpus that are mostly doing nothing.

- imp0cat 2y agoFair point. OTOH, something like a Tesla must have a lot of computing power that's just mostly idle when parked and charging at home. That is unless Tesla is already using their idle cars as remote datacenters, crunching numbers to get better at self-driving.
