    I hope it’s public and violent. Not a nice thought, I know. But…

      Yeah I’d be down to watch a Gadaffi redux.

    This is just his oligarch backers dictating his policies though. They will still be around to dictate policy after his demise.

  As a Yuro, the only time I think I used to see this was on older American Megatrends BIOS POST screens.

  I take it it’s similar/the same as the energy efficiency ratings by the EU?

  Do manufacturers provide those same ratings when selling in the US? More like, they supply both to both regions when selling a product (easier than removing 1)? Just thinking of alternatives.

    There is a similar sticker but issued by Energy Star instead.

    I’d say it’s more specific than your example. It’s less about “let’s save the planet” and more about “keeping your bills lower”.
