Your solution still answers the wrong question and even results in a contradiction: the initial statement was "say there's a [power] saving of 2W." Your conclusion would be that there's a power saving of 0.167W, which in

First of all I was talking about power consumption, which is never expressed in MW or kW. Secondly, mW is also power, not electricity consumption. 4Wh is power consumption (or electricity use if you will). The "per day"-part was j

You're using the wrong units. 1.6MW global power consumption has no meaning on its own. 1.6MW is the power that two sports cars can generate. Power consumption (e.g. energy) requires time, so 2W per car at 2 hours of daily use would be

I don't know whether it's truly that appealing to the "masses". Keep in mind that unlike with quick suborbital hops, orbital flights are preceded by week-long training, medical exams and preparations. You can't just

Even if the "cost" of getting the required infrastructure into orbit (assuming Earth-based manufacturing) was close to zero, the energy requirements would still eat up the benefits. SSP only works if every piece of the orbital inf

OK. For the last time, here's a freakin' screenhot to illustrate the point: https://ibb.co/QYnj40r What you see there is are the power limits of the CPU (as reported by HWInfo64). If you set the POWER LIMIT in the

Power curves and C-state handling is also performed by the firmware, which is again controlled by the OEM/ODM not the chipmaker.

Given similar power consumption, cooling is up to the OEM, not the chipmaker. So this question should be directed at Clevo, Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, Tongfang, etc. This is physics after all and 15W are 15W no matter if they go into an

That's exactly what judges decide to do if certain criteria are met, though. The person in this case, however, had a criminal history including attempted homicide so the judge decided to opt for detention while awaiting trial instead.

But does the Foveon sensor use RGB filters or does it work with different frequency bands? That's a major issue with science data - it doesn't contain RGB data for the most part, because that's not what scientists are interes

You misinterpreted what I wrote then. Yes, a consumer-level camera sensor uses Bayer filtering, but that's just an implementation detail just like the rods and cones inside the retina - you don't perceive each channel individually
