California, Oregon, Washington, Colorado and Vermont have all adopted laws that say PCs can only consume X amount of power to be sold in those states.

High powered gaming PCs go over those limits.

They also don't have a section for large servers, which means that the big cloud providers are exempt

Ah,so this is to ban dedicated PC gaming/emulation/modding, and force everyone into the cloud for permanent live-service use.

Nailed it.

They don't want you owning a computer. They want you to have no option but to use theirs. They want to own your data. They want TOTAL surveillance and control over you.

Reminds me of when they toyed with taxing text messages a few years back when it was obvious everyone would just shift to “free” messaging services

They just came up with a random function to give them the numbers they were looking for.

That is how they work, figure out the result they want then come up with some bullshit that will produce exactly that.

So they're going to try to tell you how much you can game or?

I wonder what all the streamers and YouTubers who live in LA will do now that they can't get free prebuilt gaming PCs from sponsors anymore.

If they're an independent, then they will just smuggle it in via regular mail, otherwise the large company who is sending the computer will get sued by the state.

Yeah I am getting pretty tired of people having a 10 minute video without getting to the point until they fill up 5 minutes of time.
