@ShadSterling @nzakas well, I just block all but whitelisted Cookies and JS.

Needless to say users can't be made liable for shitty of the company who's website they log in.

Point is: are the most secure option - period.

@tebicat Depends on whether or not it's using variable refresh rate...

A lot of -'s and panels do that and they can go as low as 24p if not lower.

Also you may have some hardware that is mining on your devices and thus thermal throttling to kick in...

@nickzana nothing new.
My employers do set the maintenance window between 2200-0600 local.

Personally I think that classic would be more profitable, espechally if one isn't too greedy and limits oneself to less than 50% CPU cycles and a single threat.

Most monitoring systems won't even notice it - espechally on a THICC DB or Virtualization host which are almost always under some load amd have multiple cores and threats if not multiple sockets and NUMA nodes.
