Yeah, this is a looong way off from a 1G burn all the way.

edit: 4.5 years to pluto is about the equivalent of a 0.001G burn all the way using this to calculate

Almost two years of non stop video.

Break it, privatize it, squeeze for every penny. That’s their business.

Fast, cheap, good. They’re going for 1 out of 3.

Seems like they wanted the web and app version of outlook to work identically. Some things don’t work on the web though, so they decided to cut features on the app until they were the same as web. It’s just such a corporate move.

Step 4: the rich that bought the gold uses it to privatize all water and power to get it working again, now becomes even more rich.

15 MW power needed, while a single reactor gives 500 to 1000 MW. The usual nuclear plant and power lines seem more likely.
