Slalom gets pretty close in some ways. It's amazing to watch what someone highly skilled can do, even when just practicing.
If you switch a reasonable amount of your shopping there and get the "executive" membership, it will literally pay for itself. (Because it gives a few percent back, and that is enough to cover the membership fee)
Depends on how many pairs the drawer started with.
I'm imagining that initially there were say 100 socks in the drawer (50 distinct pairs) and each day she randomly chooses two socks (already very unlikely to be a pair) and has some chance of losing one or both.
In this scenario it does seem intuitively reasonable that when it gets down to 20 there might not be any pairs left, but I don't know how to math it. I am pretty sure that the higher the number of initial (non-overlapping) pairs, the more likely it will end (at 20) with none left, but again the math is beyond me.
Not only does your explanation match my understanding, but your username suggests you know this stuff.
I'll go one better.
A (non-spinning uncharged) black hole with diameter 1+5/8th inches (so it fits in the box) has a mass of about 2.3 earths.
(Near as I can tell QGP filling the whole box is around a ten billionth of that.)
Of course the box would Very quickly no longer be outside the black hole. QGP would also cause the box to no longer be a container in short order. To put it mildly.
Epic win! Lol!

Etc, etc.
Very little, around 60k.
A 1.44 "MB" floppy is 1440k, or about 1.406 real MB, and of that the space used by the FAT file system reduces it to around 1.38 free space.
For some reason I couldn't find the exact number and don't have any handy to check it myself.
In that case it's actually the twentieth (or more likely twenty first) minor version though, it's not actually a decimal
And they are very specifically optimized to be convincing.
Everyone is mentioning email. I also use the World Wide Web.
Had to look this up.
It's a quote from Steve Jobs saying he thought computers would enhance minds the way bicycles enhance efficiency of travel.

Lens flares, but in IR they look different.

Yup. And of course the slightly staticy
"Er Er Er-Er Errrrrrrr!"
I am pretty sure I know exactly what it sounds like. I had a talking alarm clock from the same era and everything that made sound electronically back then did so by using the same chips with the same samples as everything else. (Including pocket 'trick noise makers' and car alarms - those two categories even had some overlapping samples if I remember right)
...You rang?...
That still means nobody proofread it. If I lived there it wouldn't be inspiring confidence.
At least the character is an adult. (I just checked.) So I don't see much issue with this besides the usual parasocial relationship stuff.
I seriously think automatic lights should be a legally mandatory feature on every new car, just like they mandated the reverse camera. I don't mind if the driver is able to temporarily turn them off, but it should go back to automatic next time the car is turned on. Also should be tied to the wipers and go on anytime they are on for more than a few seconds. (Whether they were turned on manually or not)
