Quite simply, it's less comfortable to wear. Considering how much you spend at work, even minor differences in comfort can be very important and well worth the salary difference.
Even though this is really a non-story, it's still much more interesting than Bitcoin.
Have you tried PlusFive, the link in my sig? It looks a lot like the old Slashdot interface.
In other words, it's ok to place this directly agains the wall, because the shape ensures it cannot be placed agains the wall. Well done.
The Exxon Valdez spill killed (from my quick search) an estimated 200,000 to 300,000 birds, about what this would kill in 10 years or so at mid-20k birds killed per year. So, build 10 of these plants (or larger with even more roasting capacity) and you have the equivalent (in bird deaths) of an Exxon Valdez oil spill each year. A wise sage once said "It's not easy being green."
The Exxon Valdez is something which should not have happened at all. Whereas this is a consequence of "normal operation".

But seriously, having two copies is enough most of the time, provided they are somewhat separate (i.e. not on two identical, connected NAS machines).
Backup? What do people usually use NAS for, I always thought it's mostly for ripped/torrented movies and backups of other computers. Neither of these need backups.
"In 2025, they'll be promoted to "transport managers."
And then, around 2030, to "route supervisors".
Speaking of Euler, does anyone have a longer "list of things named after x" than him?
What else could you expect from a country, reigned by the QUEEN?
I would expect it all, and I would expect it now.
It is easier to write an incorrect program than understand a correct one.
