CDs can be nicely packaged, but LPs are larger and seem to get more interesting and elaborate packaging. For example, a gatefold 2xLP is just a nicer object to me than the standard 2xCD case (and many double LPs are single CDs to boot). So on average, a nicer object. They usually come with a download card nowadays so you get the digital version too.

Another reason for me at least is that a lot of the vinyl I buy is directly from bands at their shows. In that case I'm getting the souvenir and I'm giving back something directly to the artists. It might just be gas money to get to the next town, but it's more than they'll ever see from Spotify.

Strange. Just worked fine for me.

I'd say it adds to the discussion by pointing out that widespread respect for anything Mr. Gladwell has to say is misplaced. Though I can't deny it's at best tangential to the specific point at hand. Well spotted. [no really, guilty as charged.]

After I read:

I was no longer able to take Malcolm Gladwell seriously on _any_ subject.

I am the 94%.

I can only confirm it works on zsh 5.0 on Ubuntu. And the /u/lo/b expansion works as well.

Yes. Not only that but it has something even cooler: ESC + Q

Let's say you are about to finish a really long command and realize you should have done one other command first.

ESC + Q clears the current line, lets you enter a command, and then inserts the cleared line again on the next prompt. You have to try it to realize how cool it is.

That's really cool. Another option with a stuck Upstart job is to rename the job file.

$ sudo mv /etc/init/myjob.conf /etc/init/myjob2.conf

$ sudo start myjob2
