What advantages above free SEO Note does it have?

) + Export to xls format.I wish we room-temperature superconductors would be researched soon, as that's the only way we could realistically store power - as it is now (as previously mentioned), power companies try to generate a bit much power than the expected demand, and adapt to the current usage patterns. I wonder how much energy is being wasted daily worldwide. At least the power grid in .dk is stable, even when demands rise... I wonder how much that costs in extra wasted power?-f0dder (June 09, 2008, 06:42 PM)
There's so much sensitive stuff, in so many rooms, I'd like to find a lazy-man's way to safeguard it.-cranioscopical (June 08, 2008, 09:53 AM)

North America is geographically about the same size as Australia but with about ten times the population and 20 times the electrical load
Where does the power go when I save it?Well, currently, according to the label on the thing into which I plug various hardware, mine goes and hangs out in a bar!-cranioscopical (June 08, 2008, 07:37 AM)
@Tomos: Unplug! Just had the USB input to one of my printers fried in a thunder storm round here.-cranioscopical (June 08, 2008, 07:37 AM)
as you are in Australia, i think the term should be "minimum reserve level". so maybe you'll have better luck with this link: http://www.google.com/search?q=federal+"minimum+reserve+level"-lanux128 (June 08, 2008, 07:08 AM)
The reserves are determined by adding the installed generation to any generation ‘equivalent’ such as interruptible load and subtracting the peak load. This yields the MW installed reserve. The reserve margin is the reserve divided by the peak load expressed as a percentage.
The whole aim of the document I read was to prove that brownouts were "guaranteed" to be less than 0.002% or something: that is having the power on tap when required:The utilities and regional power systems of the developed nations in North America and Europe have identical patterns in developing installed generation reliability criteria. Each begins with a sophisticated probabilistic analysis of the existing and planned future generation system
together with forecasted customer load. The result of this analysis is a minimum requirement for generation to be installed to meet customer load while providing the level of reliability consistent with the selected probabilistic reliability measure.
In North America the measure is usually related to the probability of generation not being able to meet demand—loss of load expectation (LOLE) or loss of load probability (LOLP). In Europe the measure may also include the probable amount of energy that cannot be supplied in a given year relative to the total amount of customer energy—expected unserved energy expressed in “system minutes.”

On March 31 2007, for one hour, Sydney made a powerful statement about the greatest contributor to global warming – coal-fired electricity – by turning off its lights. Over 2.2 million Sydney residents and over 2,100 businesses switched off, leading to a 10.2% energy reduction across the city. What began as one city taking a stand against global warming caught the attention of the world.-Earth Hour
Was that a rant? Came on a bit sudden to warn you, sorry...Great News!!

even though such behavior is common on the internets, this is not the way of donationcoder, so please no one do such things, and don't mail them if DC isn't one of your top 100 sites. let's be good web citizens.-mouser (June 06, 2008, 04:19 PM)

Cool thread, but even cooler with a little example of what can be done with each of these tools. Either a downloadable alias file or just a snippet of code would be excellent. I've only just looked into creating my own alias' and using commandline tools, so some examples would be VERY helpful!-TucknDar (May 30, 2008, 08:15 AM)

Some potential workflows could be (-> represents a tab):
Email->email address->subject->body<enter>
Addnote->notename->title->body<enter>
File->zip->filename->directory<enter>
Possibilities are endless.....
This way it is up to the alias/plugin to determine the number of steps needed/required. It is this intelligence that i wish farr had and i keep asking Mouser for-s.newave (May 27, 2008, 03:23 PM)
