Does a (phone|laptop) charger plugged in the socket but not connected to the device still consume electricity?

They do consume a tiny little bit. I have a Measurement thingy that yoj plug between your outlet and whatever is plugged in which is accurate to 0.1 W. I tryed 3 chargers, one shows 0.1 W, the other two show 0.0 . I still know they consume a tiny bit, but less than 0.1 W is almost nothing. 0.1 W would come out to a consumtion of 0.876 kWh over a year, wich costs me 0.30 €.

Most likely this. If not, there is a host of other possibilities they could make the connection. Sone that come to mind:

  • You both have instagram and have connected in a way that makes it likely you are in a close relationship (tagged in photos, DMs)
  • She allows Instagram to access the contacts on her phone, and OP is saved in there as her S.O.
  • They are connected through Whatsapp or some other Meta service.
  • The Company targets their ads at category which they both fall into (companies can manage which groups see their ads VERY specifically)
  • Coincidence

After his spin Sainz let the car roll backwards to get it off the the racing line, which is exactly what he should have done. Albon tried going behind him to lose as little time as possible, which is also the right thing to do. It was just an unfortunate incident.

Also, the music from the past we listen to now is only the best of the best of what the 90s or whatever had to offer. There was just as much bad music then, but that is long forgotten. What remains are just the absolute bangers. As a kid I wanted to find some more music similar to the Beatles, and decided the easiest way was to look at the charts from the mid to late 60s and listen to that. Most of it was atrocious.
