Course

The Lossa rises east of the Wurzen village of Kühren. The Lossabach, a tributary of the Lossa, has its origin east of the village of Ochsensaal (which belongs to Dahlen). In the vicinity of the Lossatal village of Müglenz the Lossabach empties into the Lossa. The Lossa then continues northwest through Hohburg, past the southern side of the Hohburg Hills, through the eponymous village of Lossa (a district of Thallwitz) and through Thallwitz. Just south of Eilenburg the stream discharges into the Mulde. Originally it joined the main river several hundred metres further north, but due to the construction of the German Celluloid Factory in Eilenburg, it was diverted into the Mulde just before entering the town borough in the second half of the 19th century.

In Thallwitz the stream is impounded by a small weir to form a pond, the Herrenteich.[1]

gollark: It would be useful if they provided actual real-word TDP numbers, because then laptops maybe wouldn't have quite the same thermal/power issues.
gollark: AMD's CPUs will happily go somewhat over the "TDP" indefinitely, and Intel stuff basically ignores it, especially given that mainboards tend to configure them for "maximum performance regardless of power".
gollark: At this point TDP for x86 CPUs is basically meaningless.

gollark: Well, you can talk about programming, sure.
