Whereas this desktop using very ordinary components is asking for my
password in under 7 seconds and is ready to use in 15.
Your PC boots from total power-off (ie not resuming from hibernation or
sleep) to password and desktop in 15 seconds?
yup.
I'm impressed. My two PCs
(both Win 7) take about 5 mins from power-off state, and that's after
checking for unwanted startup processes (msconfig) etc and after running
CCLEANER. What OS do you use? And is that with spinning HDD or solid-state?
Linux Mint/SSD
about 3 secs is BIOS followed by the splash screen to see if I want to
boot linux. If i hut yes then its about another 4 secs to the login
screen, and after that another 7-8 loading up the desktop and so on.

it should be clear by now to everyone that activist environmentalism
(or environmental activism) is becoming a general ideology about humans,
about their freedom, about the relationship between the individual and
the state, and about the manipulation of people under the guise of a
'noble' idea. It is not an honest pursuit of 'sustainable development,'
a matter of elementary environmental protection, or a search for
rational mechanisms designed to achieve a healthy environment. Yet
things do occur that make you shake your head and remind yourself that
you live neither in Joseph Stalins Communist era, nor in the Orwellian
utopia of 1984.
