  1. try setting you default power mode to high performance. Of course that might keep your fans running. If you're brave you can go into 'Group Policy' or the registry for a fix but it not clear those work either, and have a good back-up first. what adds to the confusion is that some reports are that after you do this, task manager still reports efficiency mode is applied even if it isn't. I've been using a Mac more and more recently and the intel boxes run Linux for everything except Solidworks. I'd really like to be completely done with MS but I can't get off that and couple other critical equipment control application that are only available in Windows. The stupid irony is that I'm only in Windows maybe 5% of the time I'm on a computer, but still spend at least 50% of my total system maintenance time keeping up those windows shells I hardly use.
  2. prep on the pool image too much to believe Trump did it himself, which means it's even weirder that he has some aide working late with him just to create troll fodder.
  3. If you are Gage Workman this move should concentrate your mind on life after baseball.
  4. Maddux would be the guy I probably must have seen but have no real recollection of as a player because I just never cared about the Braves other than to pay attention to Aaron.
  5. What are they doing to with Flaherty? I can see one more start, but if it goes like this again....
  6. Yeah, that was kinda cute. Tigers didn't do anything though.
  7. The BP has given up one run in 6 IP. If they don't walk this off the BP is going to get the loss but it's not really theirs.
  8. Vest apparently not available tonight.
  9. he's faced three batters, you can go get him any time.
  10. Not off to a great start
  11. Burch Smith? Needs to keep Texas barking up the wrong tree.
  12. With the game now close I wish someone else were pitching
  13. Bah - was hoping for a tougher AB from Gleyber there.
  14. Dirks and Dickerson talking a lot about his mindset. I think it may be simpler, the FB is down enough ticks that he rightfully has no confidence in it.
  15. 1st of May and 2/5 of the opening day rotation is a loss. Who'd have thunk in Feb that the season would pivot on whether Melton can get back and be a top half rotation starter.
  16. Tork failed to barrel up a middle middle FB but salvaged a walk.
  17. 2nd was a better inning from Jack but his FB velo sucks.
  18. I'm finding the EV is close to perfect as an around the town vehicle, but when we replace the other car it will likely be with a hybrid SUV that gives me a 48" wide floor that can carry larger cargo
  19. definitely a good time the have an EV. I just hope Tesla sales aren't recovering as a result...
  20. I've been inside the Pine Bend refinery. Marathon also has a refinery north and across the river from Pine bend but it's maybe 1/2 the size or less.
  21. actually Whiting is also apparently in the middle of union lock-out. Management is trying to keep the plant running and that's usually a disaster waiting to happen. The bad part is that at this point this is hitting mostly areas that are mostly already trending blue. Some Whiting supply must also go to Ohio but I have no idea how much.
  22. The BP Whiting Refinery (near Chicago in Indiana) suffered an unexpected outage Sunday night . It is the biggest refinery in the Midwest and it when goes down, it adds about $1 to prices throughout the region. Press reports say expect 2 weeks, but guaranteed nobody at the refinery would be telling the press the truth about anything at this point so that's just worthless speculation - timeframe could be anything. Insult to injury for the American driver.
  23. One angle is just that, that the party rank and file are out of patience with the national party for setting them up with losers. And that is Platner's potential weakness - do the folks excited about Platner (and a lot clearly are) represent a winning voting coalition in the state or just themselves as the activist/progressive wing?
