I guess even that makes sense...
But, out of curiosity, do you know which kind of device is that and in what
kind of environment? I mean, theoretically it may make sense on a cellphone,
but... I guess you have some fun device and would like to know what it is :-).
Hmm. And we can make this quite generic.
while (too_cold())
barrier();
Wasting power is really easy :-).
