I recently bought an Asus UX302LA and trying to make sure I'm confortable with the battery life before completely committing to it. I left for a car trip and coded on my laptop for 30 minutes (front end web development), and for the other 3 hours I watched 1080p episodes of Dexter, straight 3 hours on headphones. Laptop was on airplane mode as well, no wifi etc. I had about 35% battery left starting with 100% on the car trip. Brightness was over half way up for the 3 hours in the car, due to the sun and reflection and stuff. Is this a decent battery life? It has a hard drive, so spinning media obviously isn't as efficient as an SSD(which is why I plan on replacing the HDD soon) but I am wondering for this $900 laptop, is it appropriate to be seeing that kind of battery life given those circumstances? Thanks, any input is appreciated.

Google Chrome History/Auto-Complete URL Not Working
cpuxtech replied to cpuxtech's topic in Operating Systems
Not sure what you mean. I want my google chrome, both mobile and desktop to auto-complete URLs that it used to like a week ago. All the sudden upon updating google chrome on my desktop, my history is saved no problem, but all of my URLs don't autocomplete. -
The other day I updated chrome(it was fairly out of date and my computer hadn't been restarted in a while) and restarted my computer. I come back on to find that all of my auto-complete suggestion stuff is gone. For example when I go to type in a URL in the URL box or go to my recent sites page on my phone, stuff like this happens: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2HRo77RSb3FR0xhYnJ2dDItU1U/edit?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2HRo77RSb3FRnNOdHdtczc3SWs/edit?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2HRo77RSb3FZFR6Z0JMcDBMczQ/edit?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2HRo77RSb3FakRleVdGdG10Z2s/edit?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2HRo77RSb3FeV9QMTNyMVo2Yzg/edit?usp=sharing It's like my history is there but the auto completion is gone and on my phone all my main tabs are messed up and are either undefined or the ones that i most recently visited after this debacle. Any help would be appreciated at this point, I heard something like deleting some folder in %appdata% would help, right now i'm not home so I have not tried it but I will...again any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Hello, I have 3 900p monitors I would like to setup in surround. Two of the monitors are 1600x900 and one is 1440x900, the height of the monitors are the same resolution, but the widths vary, would the setup I want still work?

I actually figured it out, i needed to do this: nav{ text-align:center; } nav ul{ display:inline-block; } nav > a#pull{ display:inline-block; float:right; } And then the <ul> and the <a id="pull"> lay next to each other and menu button is all the way floated to the right.

I am trying to start a basic responsive website, as a test to learn how to make a responsive website. I followed a tutorial here, http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/responsive-web-nav/ (this is the demo project: http://media02.hongkiat.com/responsive-web-nav/demo/index.html) and I got it working and everything but I am having a problem. I cannot position anything to the right of the inside the . For some reason everything(including the #pull link when the display is not set to "none", falls below the and the . I want to make a login form somewhere to the right of the in the and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do it at all. Im sure its just a basic CSS positioning issue that I can't figure out because I am new to this, but I just need to place more content on the and I cannot figure out how to. Thanks!

Say I am making a website, and I want a register page and obviously a regular home page to login on. What manages the user names and passwords, unfortunately I don't know much about that stuff but I imagine something that would store and check credentials would be some MySQL database and maybe some php code, but I looking for a nice straightforward answer that shows how that stuff is tied together with user accounts, thanks community!

I want to get into web development and I know html, but should I learn like css and JavaScript next? I really wanna make great looking websites with custom themes, something that looks almost like Gmail, self updating customly styled website. From my reading css and JavaScript seem like a good place to start off if html but I am also wondering how does jQuery fit into the mix? And how long would it really take to build an awesome looking functional website? Thanks

I am just beginning to get into web development and am wanting, for practice, to make a mock cloud website. I want to make a great looking website with a login as the front page, and when you login it opens your account folder showing all the files you've uploaded to it. You can open, download, and edit these files, then update them back to your account and they are "saved on the cloud" to your account. To make this I need to know the very general ideas/steps to take in order to make certain parts come alive. 1.) To make account management come alive, what do you use for account management, something like a MySQL database? Is this a common tool for big businesses to use? 2.) If users upload files to their account folder, would it be best for the files to just go to the server's filesystem and then create Like html links to the files on the server when a user signs in? I need to understand the basics for account management and how to save preferences and files to an account...from what I know it seems MySQL will help with some of that but I am looking for some general background information.

I am beginning to get into web development and I am wondering about databases...Say I want to make a website, something with a nice login form in the beginning, then when I log in, it shows me say, my account folder, and I have certain files saved to it. Then I can go on any computer, login with my credentials, and have access to my account's files...almost like a cloud service. I want to learn to make a very basic cloud service for testing purposes. I think its a good goal and a good way to learn about web dev. My quetsion is how are these files stored, and where are they stored, if I make changes to it on one computer, obviousyly the changes are made to the database/server so if I login to my account on any computer, it will show the updated changes. Does something like a MySQL database and fileserver take care of the saving files and account management? I am just trying to wrap my head around the workings of an online service.

Ok so I have been learning Java for Android Development but have recently been interested in Web Development as it seems like an extremely thriving area with applicable uses. I have gathered some resources on the main web dev languages, but many examples show horrible aesthetics with crappy designs... For instance, a login box will often look like this: So this may be functional , but is extremely unappealing and I just want to make sure that if I want to learn web dev stuff, I am not going to have useless knowledge. Like for instance, how does Google get ahold of this : Obviously that is much better looking, but is this through the work of custom themes and presets/layouts, or will an understanding of web development languages give you the ability to make something as beautiful as a Google product? Thanks!

Use as OS, second option would be to cache the local drives no doubt.

can this build be considered as a good home server iam a noob
cpuxtech replied to FeltyKat's topic in Storage Devices
You should get a cheaper H77 Mobo, with something like a Pentium G2020, or an i3 at max depending on how much calculation you are relying on with all those HDDs in a RAID array. -
I was thinking either WHS or regular windows. If I can use Crashplan with regular Win then it makes more sense to do that. I honestly don't feel like not having Windows on it, as in having FreeNAS or something. But I'll def check out all my options...I'm open to whatever will make this smooth as apossible. Thanks !
