Due to a typo, I ended up with "The Cod War"

I have one of the earliest mp3 players, with a 32Mb expansion memory card.

And going back further: a Sharp PC1211 BASIC-programmable pocket computer
That was covered pretty well already!
Or maybe it's using Fluidic logic.
It's on the list somewhere I think
Well that's of the same order of magnitude as the quoted figure. I was suggesting that it sounded vastly larger than it should be.
It's true, I don't know how large the models are that are being accessed in data centers. Although if the article's estimate is correct, it's sad that such excessively-demanding models are always being used for use-cases that could often be handled with much lower power usage.
140Wh seems off.
It's possible to run an LLM on a moderately-powered gaming PC (even a Steam Deck).
Those consume power in the range of a few hundred watts and they can generate replies in a seconds, or maybe a minute or so. Power use throttles down when not actually working.
That means a home pc could generate dozens of email-sized texts an hour using a few hundred watt-hours.
I think that the article is missing some factor, such as how many parallel users the racks they're discussing can support.
You thinking of Apple headsets. These are budget things, maybe $300.
Magnus Pyke was a well-known TV personality and sciencey person in the UK.
Thomas Dolby's song merits a mention in the first paragraph:
Woot made a success of this, their most coveted product
Okay, that makes more sense.
But in that case I want to know why the pig in the display cabinet isn't wearing a hat.
He decided that it was unethical to have an AI/LLM impersonate a real person, but set up the "wizard" as an AI assistant for his fake crypto site helpline.
I govenment site I visited recenly made a point of how it accepts emojis in passwords!
True, poor choice of phrase.
But I was thnking of something like
#define my_macro does not fit\
on one line
Unix or dos format?
Anyway, you probably need to put a backslash before it to indicate line continuation.
But wouldn't it be better to use something more traditional, such as <br>?
Best phone sync
Edit: Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm going to try sticking with syncthing and try the fork of the UI and see if that keeps everything working.

I want to sync files between my linux PC and Android phones (mostly for Obsidian notes).
Can anyone recommend a good real-time sync?
I've been trying syncthing, but despite turning off battery optimization for the app, it rarely sees the phone as connected. I don't want to have to remember to check syncthing every time I edit a note.
I use resilio for syncing between PCs but it looks like it has a high battery usage on the phone, as if it is frequently polling for changes.
I use FolderSync for occasional scheduled syncs (e.g. updating my MP3s from the server to my phone), but a scheduled sync either is frequent enough to affect battery or it risks sync conflicts.
Cloud services such as OneDrive, Dropbox and Google Drive don't show up as big battery drains, so I assume that they use change notifications from the OS instead.
Are there any real-time 2-way sync apps for phone that don't have big battery drain and are not for cloud providers?
What does "fishcake" mean to you?
I grew up knowing a fishcake as being fish sandwiched between two slices of potato covered in batter.
But when I ventured out into the wider world beyond Sheffield, fishcakes were strange breaded minced-up fish things.
Was my whole childhood a lie?
