Are videogames a giant waste of electricity?

It depends a lot on what activities they displace.

What is your argument for it not being such a giant waste ?

Remember, we are now living in a guilty-until-proven-innocent world.

Probably watching TV?
If it’s TV then it’s not additive unlike Bitcoin.

It could well be a lot of other stuff, sports, resources consuming hobbies etc.
