Not doing anything, only used the PC for a few games, and they will keep working on Windows 10, so no need to change toe Windows 11, not that the computer can officially run Windows 11 anyway. As for the ESU program, again, not bothered, i really don;t know what Ms ge4ts out of forcing people to use a MS account and sync desktop settings to their server. This is the problem with MS these days, all they want is data, data and more data to chuck adverts at us. Not going to happen this way -

The technology is considered biologically safe, until they find out it is not. How many times have we been told things like this. As Slugsie posted, it is for very small devices. -

Amazon's 2024 sustainability report: Carbon emissions rise despite efficiency efforts by Paul Hill Amazon has shared its 2024 Sustainability Report, covering January 1 to December 31, 2024. Unfortunately, the e-commerce giant said that its absolute carbon emissions in 2024 rose by 6% following two years of decreasing emissions. The increase comes despite a four percent reduction in carbon intensity (this means it is emitting less carbon for every unit of business growth). The increase in carbon emissions is down to the fact that Amazon saw 11% business growth during the year, so its reduction efforts have been insufficient to stop its overall emissions from rising. What is good is that Amazon met its 100% renewable energy matching goal for global operations in 2024, five years ahead of its original 2030 target. It shouldn’t be hard to guess where this business growth is coming from: it’s AI. The company has accelerated its investment in generative AI to transform customer experiences and its internal operations. The scaling up of AI means that it’s seeing increased energy demands for data centers due to AI chips requiring more electricity and cooling. While having your carbon emissions rising isn’t a great headline, it’s worth noting too that Amazon says AWS’s global Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) was 1.15 in 2024, which is more efficient than the industry average of 1.25 and on-premises data centers, which have an average PUE of 1.63. To bolster its renewable matching, the company is also investing in nuclear energy to diversify its carbon-free energy portfolio. Things aren’t all negative over at Amazon; the company reported that it has deployed more than 31,400 electric delivery vans globally, which have been responsible for the delivery of 1.5 billion packages. It has also installed 11,770 chargers, creating the largest private charging network in the US. The company said that it has reduced plastic by getting rid of air pillows in packaging and replacing them with recyclable paper filler. This led to a 16.4% reduction in total plastic packaging. In another positive, the company said that it has reduced carbon emissions per shipped unit by around one-third since 2019. Finally, Amazon shared some ways that it has improved its supply chain accountability and social impact initiatives. It said that it has expanded its supplier audit program to include third-party labor, service, and not-for-resale goods providers in their logistics, warehousing, and construction supply chain. The company has also said that it's investing in local communities, including affordable housing and offering cloud computing credits for global health organizations. The company is also leveling up workers by providing AI skills training to over two million people globally. Image via Depositphotos.com -
