Answer» Not true, its too prevent the majors from knowing things no, actually it increases the radio waves, and they said at MIT it was some government conspiracy to make it easier to do what ever they want to doI could see how that it would. But you think that would be true then can you trust the people running it?metal reflects electromagnetic radiation... how do you think radar works?MIT tested it though...beside the point. if MIT tested mirrors and said they didn't reflect light, would you believe that?Quote from: computeruler on August 16, 2009, 10:33:58 AM At MIT they tested those and they do the opposite of what they are supposed to.

Heck, I've had the power go out or the system crash and force me to reboot several times, and I thought I had lost an hour or so of programming I had been doing... upon reopening the project, however, I find I lost nothing... and many times I've caught myself unconciously typing Alt+F, down arrow five times, enter to save... and when I say "often" I mean, basically everytime I stop typing. I also never alt+tab from it without saving first. when i am programming evrey ten lines i press ALT+F S so if my computer crashes at most u lose ten lines no big dealQuote so if my computer crashes at most u lose ten lines no big deal why would I lose any code if your computer crashes?

I have a Desktop and it's PSU has failed, possibly because of a power cut, and that's been out of action for a YEAR and 4 months now, so in that respect I have lost files, I had to start from scratch when I got my laptop.

There were way too many possibilities to list- placing the desktop HD in a enclosure, for example - that would have allowed you access to these "lost" files, so as I said it's more a matter of how important the files are and in your case they cannot be that important if your willing to wait for a new PSU rather then spend 20-30 dollars on an enclosure. However- regarding battery I do hear that. I've never lost data from a power outage... (not very frequent here, and I'm a compulsive saver) nor have any of my disks been damaged from them... Most of the time the PC shuts off because there is a brown-out for a second or two. My laptop, of course, is unaffected, because of the reasons you mention. Although I don't really use my laptop for much.Quote from: BC_Programmer on August 18, 2009, 04:38:42 AM a file isn't "lost" just because you can't afford or are too lazy to replace the power supply.

It's a win-win situation.There is a little more too it then that.

when i am programming
evrey ten lines i press
ALT+F S
so if my computer crashes at most u lose ten lines no big dealQuote
