Good morning Beehaw it is currently 5:30 am in the morning here in Australia Nov 9 2024.
It may not be morning where you are but it is always morning somewhere on Earth. Plus this chat is more of a vibe. Have you been doing any hobbies lately or discovered a new tv show? Maybe you worked on something and want to share it or you recently found something you are passionate about?

I guess you would need to factor in the building electricity to keep the lights on etc. Though as far as I know bank transactions don't involve highly powered machines trying to 1 up each other to solve a transaction resulting in more power being used. Tbh idk how much power that would all total to.

Lighting doesn't matter me much. Heating is usually the environmentally dominant factor in a building I've learned.

Instead you've thousands of lives being wasted on deciding whether to raise or lower interest rates. A fair comparison would take that into account, too.

That makes sense especially since LED lights can save a lot more energy than traditional lights while heating would still be more of a problem. I am not really qualified to talk about interest rates so I cant really comment on that.
