Mine's very quiet.
Antec P183 case, all Scythe SlipStream 120mm fans. All fans mounted on anti-vibration rubber mounts, same for HD/Optical drives. SSD for main OS. Aftermarket (Scythe Mugen something or other) heatsink+fan for CPU, GPU fan is from Arctic, not sure the exact model off the top of my head.
CPU: Intel Core i7 4770k
GPU: ATI Radeon R9 290x
RAM: 32GB, Corsair. Too lazy to look up the timings.

I live across the street from a gas station, and the sound of their HVAC system is louder through closed windows than my PC 1m away at idle. Under heavy load it becomes audible, but I use headphones which serve to mitigate that quite well.
Well, since encryption has been classified as a munition in some laws in the past, and in the Wassenaar agreement, one could argue a second amendment right to cryptography software.
Guns have strong offensive uses. Encryption generally doesn't, the closest it comes is cryptolocker-style ransomware. Which is mitigated by offline backups.
Ghostery + Adblock are redundant with RequestPolicy + Noscript. And I prefer Self-Destructing Cookies, since it can get rid of all sorts of persistent storage objects and doesn't tend to break things. It deletes all cookies set while on a tab when you close the tab, unless you whitelist them.
Cut off the bottom of my post on accident.
It's supposed to be that CVE, but the actual CVE hasn't been published yet. They went with the press release first for some reason.
Use a locally hosted caching DNS server. It's very fast even with large blocklists. Unlike a you-know-what that slows down significantly as the blocklist gets larger.
Not during an abort, only during a normal landing. During an abort the landing fuel is used to get the capsule away from the (shortly exploding) rocket as fast and as far as possible.
You do NOT want to drink substantial amounts of distilled water. It will leech the salts out of your body through osmosis. Distilled water with a pinch of table salt is likely fine though.
It is a regional dialectical usage, mostly in the midland US. It's spread, but is less common elsewhere, and pretty much absent in New England and outside the US. In most other places it requires a preceding negative construction, eg "Activists aren't as effective any more because they get caught up in this sort of shite, leaving important worries like electing good people to govern us laguishing on the back burner." It is often a rather confusing construction to people who haven't seen it before, because they're used to the negation beforehand. So it seems like you're trying to negate your own point, decreasing clarity.
You just described the Everettian model. That model doesn't have any paradox for Schrodinger's cat. Several of the others (the ones Schrodinger was criticizing) do. EG de Broglie-Bohm theory, Transactional QM, and Objective Collapse theories don't have the issue, while von Neumann/Wigner does.
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is just the Fourier uncertainty principle applied to QM. Position is the Fourier transform of momentum. You get an uncertainty principle between two things which are related by the Fourier transform, it's just a fact of math and not some mysterious property of quantum systems.
One way to passively burn more energy that I don't see mentioned enough is to simply lower the ambient temperature (and don't add more clothing). Staying in a cooler room (or not using a heavy blanket when sleeping, etc) can use a significant amount of extra energy. Sleeping humans use between 20 and 80 kCal/hour, depending on ambient temperature, blankets, etc. (80-20)*8=480kCal potential burn, per night of sleep. Over the course of a week that's 3360kCal, or nearly a pound of body fat's worth of energy. Use your basal metabolic rate to burn more energy by staying in cooler environments.
0% of the exoplanets discovered so far pass the IAU's definition of a planet, since that definition specifies that the planet must orbit Sol. Exoplanets are a different category.

Well, even when you can refactor it you have to figure out what the classes do before you can give them sensible names.

It's CVE-2015-3456. https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/...

And yet government contracts somehow continually manage to go over budget, and the government pays the cost instead of the contractor.

It is a set number. It's not an integer, but real numbers are certainly numbers, and pi is a constant in Euclidean geometry.
No, if you want an easy and unbreakable encryption system for your text just use EBCDIC. No programmer has stayed sane long enough to implement it.

The cat is fully capable of observing its own state of being. It can't be in a superposition of alive and dead without collapsing it.
Actually, it was that if the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum theory was correct then that would be the absurd conclusion.
So the Copenhagen interpretation is wrong, as is any other interpretation that necessarily comes to the same absurd conclusion.
The interpretations that don't make such a conclusion are unaffected by the thought experiment.
Well, they're funded by Yahoo now, so if they take after the practices of their funding source I'd expect them to annoy and drive away their users.
Hope it's controlling a vacuum pump.

Massive morphine overdose is apparently also a rather humane way to execute people. But a painless death doesn't seem to be the desired outcome.
Entanglement can't transmit signals. This is often misunderstood, but it's a big part of the reason why it seems so strange.
What does gender and ethnicity have to do with ability as a programmer/designer?
