See it’s actually fine because computer power is just always going to get better and the next gen will handle it all fine.

Oh and there is definitely no reason to try and reduces electricity usage. See cause we’re totally going to run everything on solar panels any day now and we can just scale that up forever to meet demand without any problems.

Obviously, sarcasm. It is kind of infuriating how little a lot of companies care about keeping stuff lightweight.

Personally I’m very interested in projects to build functional lightweight systems and architecture, particularly stuff that could run on older process node chips. Like stuff that could be made without colossally complex supply chains.
