hibernation?
Q. is it okay to just hibernate my computer instead of shutting it down all the time? what's the difference between the two? is the power consumption the same? is it safe to regularly hibernate instead of shutdown? can i replace hibernation with shutdown? the way i see it, my computer starts up faster when coming back from hibernation, rather than a full blown startup.

A. I'll answer you with what I do: On my home desktop, I use standby mode. On my laptop, 90% of the time I put it in hibernation instead of powering it off. Standby keeps your system's state in RAM and keeps just enough power to the CPU and memory so it wakes up quickly. Hibernation saves this same information to the hard drive, in a special file (hiberfil.sys). The computer will use very little power in hibernation, and will use a little more in standby. You should completely poweroff or reboot your computer once a week to keep the memory leaks at bay, but between reboots, hibernation should work just great for you. There aren't any data-loss concerns of using hibernation over shutting down.

What is the relationship between hibernation and anasthetics?
Q. How similar are the effects of hibernating and being placed under anasthetics, for example with Nitrous Oxide or any of the standard surgical anasthetics. Can hibernation provide insights into anasthetics or vice versa? These both seem to be sleep-like states -- how are the related or possibly connected? Are there chemical similarities at the cellular level, or in brain psysiology?

A. None that I know of, and I've been practicing anesthesiology since 1990. BTW, nitrous oxide is an incomplete anesthetic at normal atmospheric pressures. We tend to use halogenated ethers, like sevoflurane and desflurane. Nitrous is an adjuvant, and a lot of us don't use it much.

Is hibernation important to successfully breed snakes?
Q. I know winter is the time for hibernation, but is it a must for breeding?
Asked by Vanessa - Fri Jun 4 22:32:38 2010 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. I cool down all of my colubrids (kings, corns, milks, etc.). I keep them in complete darkness for three months at temperatures between 45 and 60 degrees and don't feed them. Water is always available. Some snakes will occasionally breed without a cool down period, but cooling them down guarantees sperm production in the male and stimulates their natural cycles, giving you a much better chance of them mating and a higher fertility rate. With tropical snakes such as boas and pythons, I let the ambient temperature drop just a little in the winter, but continue feeding them.

What's the difference between hibernation and sleeping in computer terms?
Q. In computer terms, what's the difference between hibernation and sleeping? and which one saves more energy?
Asked by Totsie - Tue Feb 2 11:13:09 2010 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Technically most computers theoretically support six states, called S0, S1, S2, S3, S4 and S5. S0 is what you or I would call On, S5 is what we would call Off. Of the states in between one will be assign Sleep and another Hibernate. Normally Sleep is a mode in which the processor is powered down but the memory is still powered. Moving between S0 and Sleep should take moments, but power is still being used to power various bits and bobs around the machine. S4 is normally Hibernate in which the computer is all but powered off. This involves flushing memory out to disk and so moving between S0 and S4 can take a little while. Often machines are set to sleep after a short while and then hibernate a while later, if no activity has occurred.

A. Hibernation is a state of inactivity and metabolic depression in animals, characterized by lower body temperature, slower breathing, and lower metabolic rate. Hibernation conserves energy, especially during winter. Hibernation may last several days, or weeks depending on species, ambient temperature, and time of year. The typical winter season for a hibernator is characterized by periods of hibernation interrupted by sporadic euthermic arousals wherein body temperature is restored to typical values. Hibernation allows animals to conserve energy during the winter when food is short. During hibernation, animals drastically lower their metabolism so as to tap energy reserves stored as body fat at a slower rate. Animals that hibernate include… [cont.]

With scheduled tasks, you can make tweaks to enable the program to run either when pc is idle, when you log on and stuff like that. Now what you will need to do is just before you click on finish, check the box that says launch advanced settings (or something close to that) On the new dialog box click on settings and at the bottom you will see power management.

The greenhouses would have to be at the right temperature so the lady bugs put inside would be active and feeding on the pest insects that damage crops inside greenhouses.

Just keep your house nice and warm...if you don't see your hamster awake its probably because it wakes up when you are asleep.

Q. When rebooting from hibernation previously, my computer would go to the page to pick a user. Now it reboots straight to whoever put it in hibernation. I would like it to go back to how it used to reboot, so you can pick the user. what i want is to be able to hit hibernate then when turning back on, choose whichever user i want without having to log off BEFORE hibernation.

A. If you go to the "Choose User" page, is there a button on there to choose hibernation? As I understand it, hibernation restores the computer to the way it was. Or, did you used to have it go to the 'choose user' page when your screensaver went on? It could be a related setting?

A. Technical answer? Hibernation will keep power to the memory subsystem so that page files are not lost and your RAM does not lose the information stored within. This keeps the computer from having to load, execute, and manage all the necessary files to boot since the information is already available. It draws a bit more power than being off altogether...due to the fact that your last session is currently being stored in the memory subsystem instead of being erased. This gives the user a quicker response when "waking up" vs. a cold boot. Long story short...lose power, RAM and page files are erased. But if you draw enough power to maintain a static charge...you can keep everything as is without having to boot the next time you sit down.… [cont.]
