I'm fairly certain she didn't purchase them to defend herself from her own son. Nice try though.

Seriously dude?
Most 60" LED LCD tvs can be run 24/7 for less than $75 a year. That is practically nothing.
Your office could easily save an order of magnitude more by turning the thermostat up 1 degree.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there going to be some sort of legislature dictating that cell phone makers use a universal charging standard by this point? Everyone else has managed micro usb, why is it so hard for apple?
Yeah, but for the android device, its as simple as selecting "skip" when asked to log into google, then installing an alternative app market of your choice through the web browser. Oh, you might have to enable installing apps from other sources, a simple tick in the settings.
Hardly the same thing.
Honestly, being a licensed contractor in my state and dealing with residential construction for almost 15 years now, licensing means almost nothing. All it says is you payed your monetary dues and are bonded IF the county the work performed in requires it. Most states have no requirements that you be licensed and it is not illegal to operate without the license. Additionally, if you are in a county that requires bonding, you are still required to have that insurance if you are not licensed.
All contractors should be researched and you should ask for references. Being licensed doesn't make them any less likely to be incompetent or rip you off in my experience.
Mine doesn't either. For instance, instead of a 1 inch box end wrench, I have a 25.4mm box end wrench.
I believe it does, its just hidden away in the advanced section of the settings as I recall. I could be wrong though, been awhile since I was using gingerbread.
I dont know that i would consider that trend significant given the stock history over the last 5 years.
Beg to differ, On my last two devices, display usually ranked 2nd or 3rd to cell standby and phone calls. Only on occasions where I had an extended game session or a movie did it ever break 30% usage.
Pretty much every android device out there is now rated above 7 hours talk time. I don't know what planet you come from, but that is easily double what smart phones did 4 years ago when they weren't dominant of the cell market.
Motorola actually did what you are suggesting in their Droid Razr model, offering one with a 2.5x capacity battery called 'Maxx" or some such. Very few people sprang the extra money for the extra battery because 8 hours talk time was already sufficient. Most people aren't power users like we are.
As a general contractor, assuming you are doing things(paint, flooring, maybe light fixtures and blinds) to the entire 3000 sq ft, your budget that remains purely for tech is going to be approximately zero. Its doubtful that budget would even allow for much of a kitchen/bath update depending on what part of the country you are in.
Who knew a process by which the ultimate goal is to produce ethanol would be a good starting point to produce ethanol?
If you ever drive through East Bumblefuck Texas, you would be shocked just how much building there is going on.
You would be surprised how well a foot pedal rig can work for gaming. If you still have use of your mousing hand, pedals can easily handle the movement function of the keyboard hand. Just get yourself a mouse with a few extra buttons and you're set.
Well, if you were really that concerned, you wouldn't have the cell phone that it was charging in the first place. The levels of energy involved here are just too low to be of concern.
