Raw pork tastes great.

I only looked at power consumption, not emissions. If the electricity produced is emissions free than the emissions for both driving and streaming would be zero. So the original statement would be true, but meaningless. But lets compare the energy consumption with an EV. At 15kwh/100km(4.14mi/kWh) the EV would need 15kwh/100km*6,44km=0.966kwh for 4 miles. That still leaves us with a power draw of 1.932KW. That is closer to a realistic but I still don't think the power consumption of streaming is that high.

The numbers are are also clearly fictive. Driving a car for 4 miles uses about half a liter of fuel. A liter of gasoline contains about 9kwh of energy meaning, that you would use about 4.5 kwh per half hour of streaming. So the servers would have to draw about 9 KW to serve a single person? That would be like 10 gaming PCs running at full power to serve one person. Are they animating the shows in real time? No compression algorithm is that inefficient and no hard drive uses that much energy.

edit: also they could never be profitable like that. Let's say you watch three hours per day. That would be 9kWx3hrsx30days=810kwh per month. Even if they only pay 5 cents a kWh that would still be over $40 per month just in electricity cost for one user.

I thought it was about cheating.

I'm sorry for being a good reputation and I don't know what to do with the people who have a lot of people and they are supposed to be a good reputation for the rest of the year and month.

Even in countries with universal health care surgeries aren't typically free. They are just paid by a public health insurance. That health insurance will pay at first but it will try to get it's money back from you if you injured somebody.

But using figuratively wouldn't really ever be correct either. "Literally" is usually used as a hyperbole, so if you would replace it with figuratively it wouldn't work as a hyperbole anymore. So it would change the meaning. Just because something is meant figuratively doesn't mean people would use the word figuratively to describe it.

Als ich zuletzt beim Weihnachtsmarkt war, war der Pfand 2,5€. Wenn Ich online schaue glaube ich kaum, dass der Stand die für unter 2,5€ bekommt. Die Kosten mit Gravur, selbst wenn man über 1000 Stück bestellt waren bei dem einen Shop den ich gefunden habe mindestens 3€.

No. You can be completely exerted without sweating or completely soaked in sweat without feeling exerted at all. I've experienced both and when I'm in better shape I will sweat more without feeling exerted, while when out of shape I can feel exerted without being sweaty. The amount of energy required to move your body is about the same whether you are fit or not. So the heat production and therefore the sweat production would be the same. Being in better shape makes the body better at producing sweat to cool you down. So more sweat and less exertion.

How fit you are doesn't determine how much you sweat. Becoming more fit can make some people even sweat more.

Except that the one with ads is more expensive.

You don't need FTL travel or multi-generational ships really. If you get close enough to the speed of light, time dilation can make the travel time for the people on the ship be as short as you want. Only for the people that stay on earth would the spaceship appear to take generations. Getting enough energy to reach such high speeds would be the difficult part as well as accelerating quickly without crushing the travellers.
