Max is taking a GCC class, so I was killing time in one of the spaces and the woman who worked there was going around turning on the computers. There’s a note that asks people to turn off the computers before leaving, and it got me wondering if that was a good idea (short answer NO!) They’re using HP EliteDesk 705 G3, so I was able to look up how many watts this computer uses when in sleep mode (1.36W), and how much it uses when turned off (.98W because it’s really not off, IT can still wake it up… Read more »<\/a><\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div> I’m a big fan of everything Angela Lussier.

In response, Musk told Brown to take two weeks off, during which he\u00a0would assume her responsibilities and see whether she was critical to his success.
