  • No. Windows ships already well compressed. There’s no way it’ll compress further by 50%.

    I’ve been getting about that rate of compression consistently with Clonezilla on windows 10. I also didn’t have any problems relocating it… it just start a driver update step and then reboots normally, but idk about how licensing work for this cases.

    How were you measuring the current in the power cable? Is this with a Kill-o-watt device or perhaps with a clamp meter and a line splitter?

    For the current both with a line-splitter+clamp and checked with an in-line meter. For the power factor, since I don’t have any actual instrument to measure It, and I just needed a ball-park figure to discern actual consumption from a capacitor, I used this diy method: https://www.giangrandi.org/electronics/cosphi/cosphi.shtml , which measured 0.04 ( with great approximation ).

    As for why there is a capacitor across the mains input […]

    I have the basic on how a switching power supply work, but I was asking because it seemed weird to me that commercial appliances didn’t take any stand-by meaures to avoid “keeping the wires warm”… is this the norm?





  • Da wiki:

    Lemmy is a free and open-source software for running self-hosted social news aggregation and discussion forums.

    Diciamo che ad alcune persone interessa più il primo aspetto, e ad altre il secondo, che sono entrambi nello scopo del progetto. In una istanza come questa con un numero limitato di interazioni penso si debba stare attenti a bilanciare i due aspetti, altrimenti l’altro scompare, ed assieme ad esso anche gli utenti che erano li per quello…

    Troppi feed da bot diluiscono l’engagement e diventa un feed rss e basta, troppe poche news e diventa puramente un forum fatto male.
