this is something I’ve heard a lot from people in the UK, do UK electronics not have switches on them or something? all electronics I’ve ever seen living in the US have a power switch on them, do you think we unplug our stuff to turn them off?
Lots of devices have status lights and other circuutry that still gets powered when “off”. Its not a huge difference, but its nice to skip the unnecessary draw.
Im not getting paid for every second of my life. If you want to be all logical you must use actual logic. The opportunity cost you’ve projected on the action is not a real one.
I also dont think i ever mentioned saving money, did I? You just want to put words in my mouth and then argue about it.

I didn’t know you people had only one of them.
I have:
All the switches. All the joy. No need for plugs left on the floor.

What a bizarre way to look at things. Did you break even on writing that comment, or was it a waste of time?

No, but my point was that there’s no need to unplug something and leave the plug on the floor if there’s a switch.
