3) Install a cigarette lighter plug in the trunk. Before getting in the car, turn the phone off and plug it in in the trunk. When you get to work, you're alive and as a bonus, your phone is fully charged.

I'm just not so sure that processed soybeans fried in rapeseed oil and salt water is any healthier than meat.

Or we've been demonizing fat for so long that they're afraid to put any in.

No it hasn't. Employers just aren't willing to pay market rates for talent and not work them into the ground, so they found a loophole in the system that allows them to hire foreign workers for less than market rate and work them into the ground.

Let's eliminate the various loopholes in overtime laws and H1-B laws and put some teeth into enforcement and see how many jobs open up overnight.

Southern California Edison has already outsourced thousands of jobs and sold off everything not nailed down. Frankly, I'm surprised that IT wasn't the FIRST to go.

And yet, ratepayers haven't seen a dime of all of these savings.

Or even just regular UPS systems. A battery pack that a Tesla owner throws away because it's down to 15kWh will power my server room for 90 minutes.

Do you really think that oil producers pay retail, or even light commercial rates? The residential end user rates for electricity were 5.4 cents in 1980 and 7.8 cents in 1990. Refineries paid a fraction of that.

Here is the study where that figure was calculated from. Refineries are, at best, 90.1% efficient, considering all inputs and outputs. If you exclude less desirable outputs like road oil and asphalt, efficiency is more like 86.4%, with refineries purchasing 39.3 TWh of electricity and 34,000 short tons of coal to produce even more.

They could use the excess nighttime electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. Normally, making hydrogen for fuel cells is expensive in terms of electrical use, but if you're not using it anyway...

Well, it takes 6kWh of electricity just to refine a gallon of gasoline. At 300Wh/mile, you can run an electric car 20 miles just on the refinery overhead of a gallon of gasoline.

Yeah, awesome. Symantec Client Security can detect "ZBot-like network activity" on a workstation, but it can neither detect nor remove the actual ZBot infection. Garbage.

Symantec: where software goes to die.

What's the point of having nice big buttons to touch to launch an app if you still have to use a mouse to use the app?

The breach started two days before Black Friday. What incentive would management have to do anything that would jeopardize their ability to sell all the way until Christmas?

Levy a fine against them equivalent to their entire profit from November 27 until December 19 when they finally admitted the breach. Maybe companies will think twice before trying to sweep these things under the rug.

Actually, Aspartame is phenylalanine-based. Sucralose contains no phenylalanine.

Actually, the EULA for their software is what keeps people buying from Apple. If they sold their OS for use on commodity hardware instead of tying it to Apple hardware, it would see a lot more market share.
