Personnel
gollark: Congratulations!
gollark: Modern high-core-count Intel CPUs will *happily* use hundreds of watts if the configuration allows it.
gollark: Daylight saving time: because if someone is unhappy with how their work hours line up with sunlight or something, the obvious solution is to meddle with the fabric of time itself and cause untold hundreds of issues in computer programs everywhere.
gollark: That sounds about as sensible as daylight saving time.
gollark: There are quite a lot of laws *in general*, enough that you can't practically know what they all are.
