 Shut Off Your Computer!
Shut Off Your Computer!
Please don't hurt me for saying that! Just when you're not using it. Over 30 billion kilowatt-hours are wasted in a year because so many people don't shut off thier computers when they're not using them. Don't have time to press that button, you say? Get a program to shut down for you! picked by streetlight22 1 year ago

 Need a new Computer or Electronic?
Need a new Computer or Electronic?
I don't remember where I got this url from and just went to check it out today. No frills on the graphic end of this site, just straight text. It's like a stock market of prices for computer and electronic equipment. Shows a link and whether the price just went up or down. Mostly computers and electronics (and accessories for those items) but just found a great deal on a canon lens! picked by dollyllama 1 year ago

 A Wasted Vote
A Wasted Vote
When asked why they will not vote for a third party candidate, many people will respond by saying something like, "He cannot win." Or, "I don't want to waste my vote." It is true: America has not elected a third party candidate since 1860. Does that mean, however, that every vote cast for one of the two major party candidates is not a wasted vote? I don't think so. picked by JoshSF49 3 weeks ago
