hey guys so after a while using qubes on my laptop i’ve noticed that the battery demand is pretty drastic
i mean obviously i never expected a vm system to be on the low end but non the less…
i’d love to discuss different ways to reduce energy use/waste
any suggestions useless services/… to disable
ways to increase efficiency and so on
most solutions will probably not be too useful for most users such as my self with different trade offs in areas such as performance and security…
(and yeah for people such as my self who’re looking to scale and use qubes for it’s compartmentalization and security… well servers are expensive and so is power so obviously small improvements stack up)
but regardless i do think there should be some more discussion around here on the matter
because i was supersized how just how quickly my battery would run out
and i’m sure many feel like me
personally i don’t feel the need to sacrifice security/… for efficiency/power savings/… (at this moment at least it is cheaper or me to use qubes then hire a expensive expert)
but qubes is already fairly secure surely some users would love the trade off
using qubes in a bit lesser of intensity instead of using a different less secure os
and or a bear-bone os with a “normal” vm setup
which is obviously not ideal
anyway i hope you’ll give good advice and find the advice’s posted here useful
(and try to be as generic and wide ranging as possible people… )
