Hmmmm, the name Apartments doesn't make sense since you mentioned it. Why not call it Joinedments or Stuckments or Attachments since they are separated by a thin wall and yet so close to each other.

Because you're renting a part of the whole building. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

The SO "Hot Network Questions" always have me chuckling. Here's a few of today's burning issues:
Quote: How would a command structure and strategy for a galactic war be organized?
Badly, I would have thought.
Quote:
How can I reliably catch fish without drowning?
If this is a recurring issue, stick to getting your fish from the market.
Quote: I've just been bitten by a rattlesnake; how, exactly, do I "keep calm"?
Pretend that the snake is a nice, fluffy kitten.
Quote: In Star Trek, why do Federation / Starfleet ships always seem to delay returning fire until it's almost too late?
Because it would be a bit of a dull show if they didn't.
Quote: Why are haiku usually of 17 syllables?
So you can tell they're not sonnets or limericks.
Slogans aren't solutions.

I was in a charity shop the other day and a record (vinyl) cover caught my eye. It was this Bert Kaempfert | Album | A Swingin’ Safari[^] which I recognized as an album my Dad had owned in the sixties. What I remembered was that the music was very corny but the recording quality good. I checked the disc and it looked almost unplayed so I bought it for $2. I took it home, put in on the turntable and was amazed. Lots of things have come a long way in 50 years but in my opinion an mp3 played on a headset just doesn't come close to a record played through a good hifi. I am now playing Dire Straits, Love over gold and that sounds pretty good too. The record store label from where I bought it states 5-10-82 which was just on the cusp of cd's. Looks like a bottle of red and some chicken wings tonight - oh and of course dig out some more old records.

80's and 90's vinyl was actually pretty low quality compared to what went before and what has come since, as it tends to be very low weight and almost entirely recycled. And it still sounds better than any digital format could ever hope to do.

I still have Beatles albums from the sixties and yes they are thicker. I can remember the oil crisis of the seventies when vinyl records suddenly became wafer thin. I love the sound but if I stream internet radio through a Raspberry Pi and a good dac into the same hifi it also sounds pretty good.

MP3 recorded at 160Kbps or 192 have all the data to play better than vinyl - of course if the source was that refined itself. Of course a good hi-fi has better audio than a headset: no power consumption contraint, no weight/cost constraint, no size constraint. They have different uses - my headset is almost constantly in use while my Hi-Fi has maybe 30 hours of usage in 10 years.

No doubt under certain conditions - the dac being crucial.
