listen, i dont know if any ransomware crews operate on mastodon, who are looking for a juicy target that literally everyone will happily sit on their hands to watch burn to the ground, but in the bizarre event this is the case, may i present to you: sempra energy - who already has the highest electricity prices IN THE COUNTRY, who is trying to hike prices almost another ten percent: https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/sdges-proposed-rate-hike-draws-pushback-public-meeting/4100070/

investor owned publicly traded power companies should be a crime
to give you an idea of what it costs for power in san diego county, may i present to you - my home assistant power price monitoring graph! we just fell into winter prices, but summer prices are 88.6 cents per kwh.
for reference, my 'regular house AC' runs at ~6500 watts. so thats 6.5kwh while running. That means it costs me $5.75 PER HOUR to run my ac if its hot.
@Viss woe that is pricey. The most expensive I've seen in peak times is about 0.50AUD or 0.34USD.
