The big problem with music on MP3s and CDs isn't the sample rate, or even the bits used to sample. To sell CDs and MP3s the recording is made as loud as possible and this causes distortion in the sample values. There's no point having 16-bits or 24-bits if the recording doesn't make good use of the full range of values.
I've probably got mine set up for an orderly shutdown, but it's easier for me to use my keyboard and mouse, instead of reaching under my desk for my system's power button. I'm thinking that turning it on from the computer case is kinda daft too. I should really just use the keyboard.
I picked that up too. Had lots of fun playing it when it first came out. I'm currently having fun with DK2, which I also picked up from GOG. A quick warning about Dungeon Keeper Mobile: It's pure EA with a DK polish.
I'm currently running a WD Green with an old Samsung SSD 830 as cache. I get the occasional pause if a game loads in something that isn't on the SSD. Overall though it's very fast with that combination and seek times, in particular, aren't an issue except for the first time you play a new game. A WD Black with an SSD as cache should be even better.
My statistical insignificant experience with HDDs:
WD: Old WD Caviar died, but the replacement lasted years. Two WD Greens still working.
IBM (Now Hitachi): Had one die, two others still work.
Samsung: Both still working.
Seagate: Never had any.
It's why placing constants on the left of the equality operator is a good idea in C/C++. The whole line then looks suspicious because its constants are on the right, and the first thing you'll think about is bugs involving operator = instead of operator ==. Unfortunately there's a lot of old code that doesn't do this, but it's easy enough for a compiler to issue warnings about operator = in if-statements.
There are missing links because the fossil records can't be found. They disappear in a process akin to particulate adhesion to linear pastaforms (and the resulting consumption). Evolution is then obviously due to divine interference by noodly appendage, and the missing links are evidence of this.
It stops being the Argo in toto the moment the first plank is replaced and it becomes mostly the Argo. Eventually there is no Argo, except for all the parts that have been removed, assuming they still exist. Maybe consciousness works the same way, and eventually the new you will have nothing in common with the you of the past. Perhaps it would be like knowing you were once another person, but not remembering what it was like.

Not sure that counts as free. It's $175 ($100 to rent) on Amazon. Although still a lot cheaper than a BS.

Does a book or a web page really know the information it contains?
Doubtful. If a book contains the equations, 1 + 1 = 2, and 1 + 1 = 3, how does it know the first and not the second equation?
I especially like that "Conservapedia proven right" is one of the most popular articles.
It's more like 1 in 15. At least according to this article.

I avoid backlit keyboards. They're invariably poorly designed for a touch-typist. I'm currently using the Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Desktop.

Indeed. It's easy for me to make a comment like that when this tragedy doesn't effect me. Apologies if it offended.
The phrase is simply used to make the story more exciting. Same with "stabbed to death".
Well he's not texting anymore. And the guy with the gun isn't shooting people anymore. I think this is a win for movie-go'ers.
I agree. Tooltips would be the limit of what I'd want to activate with my eyes.
Yeah, but he also didn't like dice.
Great film. It was remade as A Fistful of Dollars.
Making gunpowder is a crime? I may or may not remember making gunpowder after school. Does this law date from 1605?
Ah, but with these they can blame the robot.
It doesn't contradict evolution. The most popular worlds are still Darwinian.

Kind of difficult if A and B are Hermitian.

They should have talked to whoever designed my flat.

How are identical things, in the exact time and place, discernible as more than one thing?
