Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

That calculation only makes sense if you never shut down your computer, instead of only when you accidentally hit "restart" and need to go right away.
Lots of people leave their computers running 24/7, though. The TLC said the power draw would be small, so I just wanted to point out that what might look like a negligible amount of power can add up to be more than youd expect.
That's not really what's being discussed here, though. There's a big difference between doing it all the time and only doing it once in a blue moon.
