Slowing cell aging could mean better health for longer, even if you don't die (much) later.

According to https://www.computerbase.de/artikel/grafikkarten/nvidia-geforce-rtx-5060-ti-16-gb-test.92119/seite-8#abschnitt_leistungsaufnahme_gaming_die_lastspitzen it peaks at 201 W.

As others mentioned, the rest of the PC is important too, but there's also differences in PSU quality. IIRC ATX 3.x requires them to actually be able to supply the nominal power continuously, with short spikes up to twice that. While older and cheaper PSUs often listed the peak output which they couldn't sustain, that's why a lot of power supply calculators recommend a much higher wattage than strictly necessary.

So, assuming a "65 W" AMD CPU which maxes out at 88 W plus the 200 W GPU plus a 50 W buffer for mainboard and drives etc., a good new 350 W PSU should run such a system (assuming you could actually buy one, the lowest ATX 3.x PSUs I've seen start at 450 W).

But to answer the question if you can continue to use your old PSU you a) need to know how much the rest of the system needs, mainly the CPU (which as others have mentioned can range from under 100 W to ~300 W), and b) the real power your PSU can supply which depends on its age and quality - maybe tell us the exact CPU and PSU in question.

Probably means there will be new PNGs that old software won't be able to open.

Und subjektiv etwa die Hälfte der Bewertungen auf Geizhals stammen von Mindfactory. Sollte nicht überraschend sein dass der Eigentümer von GH ein Interesse daran hat MF zu erhalten (überraschend für mich war nur dass das a) Heise ist, und b) die sich das leisten können).

Gab doch von Covid die Erkenntnis dass bessere Belüftung gut gegen die Verberitung von Infektionen hilft. Da hätte man gut drei Fliegen mit einer Klappe schlagen können: Bessere Belüftung und Klimatisierung von Räumen in denen sich viele Leute aufhalten, und Förderung der lokalen Wirtschaft die das einbaut. Bräuchte natürlich Verantwortliche die bereit sind vorwärts zu blicken und sich nicht verzweifelt an der Vergangenheit festklammern und die Zukunft ignorieren.

you'd have to throw like 20% to 40% of the entire US stockpile of these

Anything for a Nobel peace prize.

Exactly. There need to be rules that make people responsible for decisions made by software.

Something like https://flathub.org/apps/com.github.jeromerobert.pdfarranger to crop pages might work, or https://flathub.org/apps/net.sourceforge.Pdfedit (old and possibly insecure) for more options.

The worst are wars imo. Massive usage of resources to build war machinery, massive destruction of infrastructure that used resources to build, massive usage of resources to clean up and rebuild... And it's usually not accounted for: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/warfares-climate-emissions-are-huge-but-uncounted/

GNU parallel, to run commands on all cores, and for its filename pattern substitution.

For example: ls *.flac | parallel ffmpeg -i {} {.}.mp3 encodes a directory of FLAC files to MP3. parallel -a <(ls *.flac) -a <(ls *.mp3) --xapply copytags {1} {2} then copies each FLAC file's metadata to the corresponding MP3 file (which ffmpeg already does, just to illustrate the --xapply option).

edit: copytags is https://github.com/DarwinAwardWinner/copytags if that's useful for anyone.
