    Could My Laptop Have Overheated?

    Because it's happened on multiple devices I'm wondering if it may be related to internet connectivity. I have seen some applications that "lock up" systems if they I have an extremely slow connection to the internet. If it happens again or if it's still happening try disabling your network...

    B What do they mean when they say something is so many light years away?

    Ice Ages & Tilting Earth: Separating Fact from Fiction

    I wasn't referring to any reputable climate scientists. Most of what we hear about climate change is from non educated sources and unfortunately they only talk about one issue.

    Ice Ages & Tilting Earth: Separating Fact from Fiction

    Thanks for all the responses, it's a lot to go over. All of this seems to prove my belief on climate change, climate science is way more complicated then led to believe.

    Using moss to combat CO2 emissions

    I came across a few different articles and social media post that claim moss is far better at absorbing CO2 and other pollutants then trees. The article from the link below claims that a relatively small planter is the equivalent of 250 trees. Is this accurate? If it is, why isn't this more...

    Calculators High School Technology education throughout the years

    I just learned yesterday that my high school is offering pilot training for small aircraft. With all they have to offer now I would probably enjoy going back to high school even though I disliked it quite a bit at the time.
