Only bad management is keeping everything from being crazy fast. No reason for today’s programs to be slower than what we had a decade ago.

Legitimately most modern games or all of social media.

When I hear “chemically manufactured” I immediately doubt. Everything is chemically manufactured.

Revealjs also supports markdown.

Things that count as DLS:

• 10 m² of personal living space + 20 m² for every 4 ppl as bathroom / kitchen
• 2100 kcal/day
• 1400 kWh/year, but this already includes public services (education/healthcare)
• 1 washing machine per 20 ppl
• 2.4 kg clothing / year
• wear tops for three days and bottoms for 15 days without washing
• 1 laptop per 4 people with a yearly power consumption of 62 kWh. (bizzarely they talk about an 800 MHz computer and seem to confuse HDD and RAM). If your gaming computer used 400 W you could use it for 150 hr/year.
