ResearchBuzz: Firehose<p>Tom’s Hardware: Open-source tool designed to throttle PC and server performance based on electricity pricing — lightweight CLI will automatically limit clocks during peak hours. “A robotics and machine learning engineer has developed a command-line interface tool that monitors power use from a smart plug and then tunes system performance based on electricity pricing.

Christine Burns MBE 🏳️‍⚧️📚⧖<p>Good morning! The electricity outlook today starts with an overall carbon intensity of 98g per kWh owing to 58% of the power generation still coming from <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/wind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wind</span></a>. The carbon will be increasing slowly through today and into tomorrow but still remaining under 200g. The wholesale price is MINUS 5.7p/kWh (the suppliers are paid for us using it) but you still pay 33p.
