This hidden Windows menu has all the tricks you need to fix battery drain

Published by skeptic

A few extra hours of battery can make all the difference when you’re away from a charger. And there’s a lot you can do to get there, from changing the power mode and lowering the screen refresh rate to disabling the screen saver and turning off USB ports when the screen is off. The problem is, these options are scattered across different parts of Windows, so changing them takes time and effort. Thankfully, Windows has a dedicated menu called Energy Recommendations. It brings all the impactful settings into one place, so you don’t have to hunt them down. It’s been there all along Screenshot by Pankil Shah — No attribution required It’s not just about what you’re doing on your PC that impacts power consumption. Streaming, gaming, and browsing with a dozen tabs open obviously chews through the battery. But what most people don’t realize is that how your PC is set up also makes a huge difference. Windows’ Energy Recommendations is a dedicated section inside the Settings app that highlights all the options that …

Why do some people eat soil? From a prisoner’s lifeline to a modern tasting menu, the history of geophagy

Why do some people eat soil? From a prisoner’s lifeline to a modern tasting menu, the history of geophagy

Published by skeptic

Editor’s note: The UK’s Food Standards Authority and Health Security Agency both advise against eating clay, soil or earth. Links to their guidance are included in this article. When I ask people if they have ever eaten soil before, they tend to give me a strange look. But geophagy – the deliberate ingestion of any kind of soil – is a practice that archaeological evidence from Kalambo Falls in Zambia suggests has been part of human history for at least 2 million years. British archaeologist John Desmond Clark reported that Homo habilis, a species of human who lived between 2.2 and 1.6 million years ago, was digging into the earth to mine clays from below the topsoil. This led to the inference that the oldest evidence of geophagy by humans was at that prehistoric site on the border of Zambia and Tanzania. More recently, anecdotal evidence suggests a prisoner condemned to death in 16th-century Hohenlohe (now part of Germany) was allowed a last request of consuming a small clay tablet after receiving his supposedly lethal …

Why the Feedback Sandwich Needs to Come Off the Menu

Why the Feedback Sandwich Needs to Come Off the Menu

Published by Jenni Sidey

Every semester, somewhere in the middle of a conversation about giving feedback, one of my business students will look up with the confidence of someone who has cracked a code and say it: “Oh yeah, just do the sandwich thing.” They always say it the same way: confidently declarative as if it were a piece of common knowledge they were graciously passing along to their classmates. The “feedback sandwich”, for anyone who somehow escaped a management training in the last thirty years, goes like this: open with something positive, deliver the criticism (aka your “real” feedback) in the middle, then close with something positive again. The idea is that the praise cushions the blow. The person hears the hard thing without shutting down, and everyone walks away with their dignity intact. The formula is tidy and largely unquestioned, which is part of the problem. Who the Sandwich Is Actually For Here is the part the management handbooks tend to skip: What the sandwich primarily manages is the giver’s discomfort, treating the receiver’s growth is a …

There’s a secret menu on your Samsung TV that unlocks more picture settings

There’s a secret menu on your Samsung TV that unlocks more picture settings

Published by skeptic

As time goes on, the quality of 4K screens and TV displays has been getting so much better. While some may argue that plasma screens were where things peaked, we’ve only got room to expand from those heavy, heat-producing displays of yesteryear. Even back in the day, Samsung was a pioneer in creating a great display, and they’ve kept that quality high since flat screens were unleashed on the world. But, there’s a chance that you may not know that your Samsung device has a hidden service menu that unlocks even more customization for your picture and device. PWM, calibrating colors, and backlight adjustments are just the start for curious consumers. Credit: Shaun Cichacki/MUO Before trying this for yourself, make sure you research and understand what each setting in the service menu does. MUO and the author are not responsible for any damage done to your devices without prior research into Samsung service menu settings.
