My Computer Hibernates, and it's Not Even Winter

It can take a lot of energy and money to run a computer 24/7. Therefore, try to not leave it open and running when you leave for an extended period of time. Remember to put it into sleep mode or hibernate mode so that it will suck up a lot less energy while you are not using it. I know I don't fully shut my computer down a lot, but if you don't have anything open and are going to be gone for a significant amount of time, try it! It won't kill you, I promise.

Fun fact: laptop computers tend to use a significantly smaller amount of energy on average than desktop computers.
