KDE Eco community meetup | Wed. 11 May 19-20h CEST

[Joseph P. De Veaugh-Geiss]

The 2nd Wednesday of the month is next week -- and so is our monthly KDE 
Eco community meetup! Just in time for our community lab Sprint ...

_Short Overview_

*Topic*: Common misconceptions when assessing a computer's energy demand

*When*: Wednesday 11 May 19:00 CEST (UTC+2) (ics event attached)

*Where*: https://meet.kde.org/b/jos-l59-2i1-9yt

_Details_

So, KDE Eco is setting up a community lab to measure the energy 
consumption of Free Software. But where do we start and what are the 
most common pitfalls? In this talk Sven Köhler (HPI) will talk about the 
common misconceptions one might have, why you can't trust your 
measurement devices, and what to do about it. Furthermore, we will be 
given a short primer on how to measure energy without any external 
devices using the built-in Running Average Power Limit (RAPL) counters 
of x86 computers.

Looking forward to seeing many of you on Wednesday!

Your community organizer,
Joseph
