But why build a Lamborghini only to put an 8 track player in it
Because a Lambo will do 220mph and you can READILY assimilate the experience and tell the difference from a Volkswagen Beetle doing 90.
For most of the people out there who aren't wanking their audiophile, they can't tell the difference between decent onboard sound and a high end sound card without lots and lots of expensive audio equipment and an oscilloscope.
Maybe with crappy OEM motherboards and stuff from Dell.
Take a look at people who spend between $100-$400 on a motherboard plus for a decent power supply.
Not all that prone to electrical noise.
I'm running a well cable-routed system with 6 large fans in there (including the CPU fan). Electrical noise is basically nill. My audio lines coming out of the box are DEAD SILENT with no distortion detectable by the Mark 1 Ear. And if I need to bust out an oscilloscope to detect it, it's effectively zero.

Funny you mention that. Because the entire article IS audiophile wank.
Most of the variance between the aural experience of onboard and that of said SB card can only REALLY be differentiated with specialized audio equipment.
With a Mark 1 Ear (your ear, whatever condition it's in, pristine or blown out from rock concerts or too loud a radio), you're going to be DAMN hard-pressed unless you're also one of those poofy little wankers who spends a year's pay on their sound system and faps over how "good" vinyl sounds compared to CD or DVD audio.
It looks like every world cup but perhaps a couple has had a different stitch pattern on the ball.
No, it doesn't. They were all somewhat different up until the Telstar introduced the 32-panel, pentagon-and-hexagon stitching pattern, but it appears to me that remained unchanged for almost 40 years, from 1970 to 2006. The balls in between appear to have the same stitching pattern, just different printed designs.
I dunno.. my LEAF's maintenance schedule for the first 150K miles is pretty much "rotate tires, every 7500 miles, check brakes every 15,000". Checking the brakes, of course, involves checking the brake fluid levels, so there is a fluid. At 150K miles you do have to replace the oil used to cool the battery charger.
But, in general, EVs are very close to maintenance-free.

Fair use? Son? What do you think this is? You're dreaming. Now go to jail! Because we have the patent on that and don't want you using it.
Earth is 12,742 km in diameter. The moon is 363,104 km, 28.5 diameters, away at perigee, and 405,696 km, 31.8 diameters, at apogee.
In round numbers the moon is 30 Earth diameters away.
I'd be more inclined to trust the article if they hadn't claimed the moon is 40 earth diameters away from the earth...
Meh. A simple error in the writeup, which I'm sure is not present in the scientific papers.

The screams... it's all about the screams. And dinner. Think of it as the psychotic version of dine-in movie theaters.

Yeah, she's in the middle bingeing on a nasty piece of candy called Homo Sapiens right now. It's not pretty and could fuck her up for a few centuries to come.
You might want to look in the mirror.
Scripting languages usually feature dynamic, strong typing. (The runtime always knows exactly what type its dealing with.)
Most compiled languages have static, strong typing. C is somewhat of an exception, being relatively weakly typed. (It's easy to make all sorts of bizarre type casts, sometimes implicitely.)
A few languages are very weakly typed, such as Forth.
