I belonged to AnswerBag, which bottomed out one day in December of 2014 or 2015. I wish I could have saved dozens or hundreds of my questions from its pages. They were some of my best offerings, truly. Instead, I’ve had to bug all of you with new ones that I came up with since then, and they’re only one/tenth as good as my 2009-2014/5 works. Grrrrrrrr. *DISCLAIMER: The list of websites above, both real and imaginary, is not all-inclusive because I do not know the names of all of them that shut down nor the ways that they shut down.

The noise runs continuously even when the computer is not in use. It is loud enough that you can hear it across the room, large room.
Dell sent out someone to replace the fans, thinking that was the problem and it wasn't . Then they sent someone out to replace my Seagate Baraccuda 2TB SATA HDD, with another Seagate Baraccuda... and the noise persists. One of the Technicians that came to my home said that noise is not normal nor good and the second tech said it is normal, plus I've received conflicting info from Dell Techs at Dell. I am now waiting on a 3rd, new and different maker HDD to see if that eliminates the unusual, loud noise. If the noise persists after this HDD switch I'm going to have to send the computer in to be looked at. I don't know what they will do differently then what has al... less

The quantum computer could expand superposition of time into perhaps an infinite quantity of individual one hundred year volumes of time and each page of the volume representing a 24 hour period illustrating all the events happening on the day. Suppose you wanted to see what is happening on March 28 2221 you would find the volume covering Jan 1st 2200 - Dec 31 2299 and find March 28 2221. Google Earth would show on your monitor then you scroll to the area of interest and zoom in to have a close up view and perhaps fortunate enough as well to find a media archives featuring all the major events of the past hundred years.You could select volumes of 100 year time periods to search back in time also to try find interesting times and locations like maybe discovering how the ancient people managed to cut and move 1500 ton stone blocks great distances and place them into positio... less
