This is more of just a discussion but I have energy monitor devices that show me my homes voltage and wattage output. Ik most people don’t but I’ve noticed this year we never really got the “bump up” in power for my area. To give more information last year during the summer our substation will provide more power which for me in any case will lead to better voltage stability and give me more voltage as most my outlets will sit at 120v but when we had the bump up it would jump to 124-125. This year I’ve noticed the same voltage stability since last winter, and it’s almost like we never got the bump up in steady power for the summer. Could this be because of all the data centers? Are they now prioritizing more power to commercial customers and less to resident customers? If this is somewhat true the hotter it gets the more instability we will have on our grid for hot humid days like these heat waves we had. They say that they are paying for their own spot in the power stations but does that now mean our power company will put us as second priority in order to provide the correct and more stable voltage to the data centers???

hello everyone! i have nordvpn and proton vpn. proton has been amazing as a VPN provider. i just recently found out tho with nordvpn that they have something called spam protection which helps with spam calls and unwanted calls. it’s been very good so far and i like it, but i’ve recently made the switch and i went full proton. i was just coming on here to ask if this is a thing that can possibly be done in proton as well? would anyone else want this feature if proton could do it?

i recently just saw the new open source hdr10+ standard that google and apple have shared to compete with dolby vision. has anyone else seen this? is this a big deal for apple tv? will it even come to apple tv? everything that i’ve seen so far says the main priority is smartphones but the chip inside the tvos is a smart phones chip? i really don’t have any idea and would love some expert opinion 😂😂
