This article is a pretty good explanation of why 16/44.1 is as good as anyone needs for playback.
kinda like 640K?
I gave some advice to a glove factory once. I told them, you should start making all their gloves with 6 fingers on them - just to be sure. They told me that most people had just 5 fingers, and that five fingers should be enough for anyone. I rudely quipped "yeah, you sound exactly like Bill Gates about that 640kB of RAM!"
They called the police on me, and I was trespassed from the building.
If you'd never had asthma, and could barely breathe, then I'd go with the antibiotics. (You you were an asthmatic, the steroids would probably have helped by themselves.)
Even bronchitis is usually viral and pneumonias can be too, but if something's interfering with your ABCs (airway, breathing, circulation) then it's best to be safe.
But yours was a relatively rare (for an individual person) case. Often it's guys who say "I've had 2 days of a sore throat and runny nose, and I want something to make me feel better because I've got a meeting" who are the problem.
I used to believe in God too, but couldn't stand the anti-science and anti-logic of other Christians. Hopefully exposure to the stupidity of religion eventually frees you from Him.
There are tons of words that are in use that derive from something else - yet people still cope.
It is neither novel nor clever to point these out. And even worse to make a Slashdot article about a stupid observation. Hang-up means "to end a phone call" - the term is derived from the action of older phones, where hanging the receiver on the phone ended the call.
I'm going to bed to do some that's word has these origins: "The long-standing speculation is that this Latin word is altered (probably by influence of turbare "to stir up") from *manstuprare, from manu, ablative of manus "hand" (see manual) + stuprare "defile" (oneself), from stuprum "defilement, dishonor," related to stupere "to be stunned, stupefied" (see stupid). "
That's quite cool, I didn't know that. It reminds me of how the cigarette lighter is a de facto power source for the car - are people wanting to change this?
Wake up and want to piss at night, fumble for your phone or hit a switch?
That problem is easily solved. You just buy old iPhones, keep the app running, and mount them permanently with a power supply onto your wall. This way you've got a convenient way of switching the light on and off from a known location.
I suspect the reason most nerds are bad at social etiquette simply because they don't see the point and don't care. It's a waste of time and/or something beneath their intellectual pursuits.
You'd be incorrect. Most people want to fit in, and be normal - these things actually require a type of thinking that nerds are not particularly good at. It's a rationalisation to just sulk and say "I don't care anyway".
Do the Slashdot editors know the difference? (Probably, but they use track as it's more emotive, although in the Tesla case.)
Track means something/someone is monitoring where you go and what you do. The Model S just had a log, and after a purposely inaccurate and disparaging review, Telsa looked at the log and found that Broader's facts were completely wrong and slanted to make the vehicle look much worse than reality.

Then how will he fap to videos of his mistress?
Why stop at $22 an hour? Why not make it $100 an hour?
That's a brilliant idea. And if people are wondering where that $100/hour will come from, we can just get the government to print more money!

How to block this guy using a HOST file?
Get a new doctor.

If you can't get those, might I suggest aiming in another direction.
So, to quote Steve Jobs, "You're holding it wrong."
I used to believe in God too, but couldn't stand the anti-science and anti-logic of other Christians. Hopefully exposure to the stupidity of religion eventually frees you from Him.
He's just a troll. Probably a Christian too. Ignore him.
Quite correct. It's symbolism, and it does nothing.

In answer to you question, Tesla?
Wake up and want to piss at night, fumble for your phone or hit a switch?

So how'd they get a cell from my penis?
They simply took half of the number of cells in your penis.
Why couldn't you have written the summary! What you said sounds interesting, and is something that most nerds did not know already.
The tragedy of Slashdot is that the idiots chose the stories, and write and edit the summaries.

That's why I love being a geek. Society says "conform!" and we say "go fuck yourself, I march to the beat of my own drum."
Society doesn't say "conform". People just like others to be polite.
I thought it was presumed by anyone that humans didn't go out, capture wolves and then selectively breed them for friendliness.
Isn't what the summary says exactly what people have always said?
You must be new here.
Obligatory:
Even XKCD haters didn't mind 695
Quite frankly, while some of his work is meh, Randall's done good things for the geek/nerd community.
Woosh.
Listen douchebag, you're completely correct in what you say.
Come up with a better euphemism, "burner cars" just might not work out so well.
I understand Ford had a line of these.

Actually, newer HDD drives tend to be much more reliable.
