What you are referring to is very interesting, but is referring only to the "instants" of noon and midnight.
Technically, it is correct to label 00:00:01 as "AM," yes?
So, I could also label 00:00:00.1 AM, yes?
How about 00:00:00.001 AM?
You can probably see where this is going. By the time the clock has changed to 12:00 (or 00:00, or 24:00) some amount, albeit a very small amount perhaps, of time has elapsed. Yes, even if the hands or digits don't show that resolution, the time has elapsed. So the AM/PM would apply. Looking at time on a clock is by nature not "instantaneous"; the argument about what to label these instants exists only in theory, and doesn't apply when you are actually reading a clock in the real world.
Fast forward a few billion years to when the sun explodes and everyone is gonna be all over this place for its tourism potential. Invest now, and get in on the ground floor!
Like I said, it has nothing to do with being a "grammar nazi." You change the meaning of your post. So it's not clear what you mean, unless you clarify the misuse in context, at which point it would be easier to correct the misused term. If you can't understand that, then your brain needs many many more mB's.
Beyond a certain point, the human ear+brain will NOT be able to tell a difference. CD quality meets this threshold. There have been so many studies on this, you're just spreading misinformation at this point.
1 GB = 1 Gigabyte, a measure of data
1 Gb/s = 1 Gigabit per second, a measure of data rate
1 MB = 1 Megabyte, a measure of data
1 mB = 1 millibyte, a measure of data that doesn't exist
This isn't grammar, it actually changes the meaning of your useless, ranting post. Get it right!
"I hate when people bring this up! But, it's an interesting topic, because blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah...
...blah blah blah blah blah... "
Perhaps I'm missing the irony of your post...
So much this. I'll pay a couple hundred $$ for a piece of equipment that works out-of-the-box, considering that represents just a few hours of my time.

Apparently here in Seattle we're not part of any "civilized country," since the majority of our public roads are not safely traversable by vehicle...
Good point here, I wonder when they'll start shipping video card with external power supplies...
Wouldn't they basically be selling a game console at that point?
Would aircraft hijacked by phones be considered drones?!
They could replace the magnifying glass cursor with a crosshairs cursor.

Every clock (or chronometer, to be pedantic) I've encountered in my entire life would disagree with you.
I think this is (at least part of) the reason why tuition rates continue to rise, along with unemployment rates.
Another zombie-survival-themed game. Serves them right.
They've had their 15 minutes!!! Stop with the zombies! Let's please leave them with the Donald Trumps and spinners of history.

Good job proving his point for us all.
I think it means having a backend for a game consisting of distributed computing resources.

This. Sorry guys, unless you are an Olympic athlete, diet MUST be part (and a big part) of the equation. I've learned this through experience.
Lifting some weights for 20 minutes a day and maintaining your crappy diet will not make you fit, it will make you look even fatter.

The Millennium Falcon will be fast enough for HIM!
WTF is a hypermarket?! It sounds awesome.
Is his disability being an idiot that can't find a way to stop a car?
Why not just refer to it as "Fatville?"
Are you sure that caching it would cost $95B? Even an asteroid that big would probably only need 16 GB of RAM.
I hate how people that aren't from the state of Washington use "Washington" to mean "Washington DC."

Pin heads have heads? Maybe I just can't see their heads because of all the obtuse and acute angles in the way.
Oh wow, it's good to know all CLIs are horrible. Thanks chief.
