I remember reading an article about solar that said if the entire roof had solar panels on it, it still would not cover all the power requirements of that house.

So most of the ocean is not in use. We can not power the whole USA even if every house had solar on the roof. So what we do is put a BIG patch of solar panels out at sea and not have a power line, but barges that have huge battery banks on them and they switch out at the solar rig.

I got rejected on VDay but I'm kind of thankful that I was. I didn't have the money to support having a gf anyway.

Ok it looks like I fixed it. MoneySoft had me using a "cloud" account and the password expired (wtf?) but I ignored them telling me to change it. I guess their solution to the password problem is to loving make your PC unsecure. Thanks, Obama. Changed to local account, everything good.

When I pressed the power button on my laptop, it still had my Orbweaver lit up. This was not normal, so I move the mouse and the screen turns on like it wasn't even sleeping. The setting says go to sleep and require password on wake up. It does not do this. What is happening? I want my computer to be secure again because my family is very nosy and I don't bother to hide anything on my pc.
Power settings window
Settings are normal
I even changed all of them to hibernate but it just ignores the settings.

« on: February 08, 2014, 09:54:38 AM »if you remove overclocking capability and downgrade the power supply to like 500w, you could fit in an i5 with a decent motherboard. it would improve performance greatly
i also recommend going the extra $30-$40 for a gtx 760
+$200 with +500 on the CPU and +600 on the GPU on the passmark scales I looked up. Still within budget, but the only rasin I didn't go Intel and GTX is because he doesn't need the best performance and I was trying to save monis.

Friend asked me to put a list together for computer. His budget is 1000-1200, and it includes monitor, keyboard and mouse.
Any reccomendations? http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2OKF7
He said he isn't going to do THAT much heavy gaming (like maxxed BF4 on eyfinity), and he plays mmo's (hence naga mouse).
