I know with Spinning hard disk drives, sometimes when they were bad things could get worse .. Is that also the case with SSDs? Or are SSDs just complete failure won't even see a Windows related GUI?

Hey, another scale comic!
Randall's been enjoying those
I wonder if he misses writing the what-if blag as often, now that the book's out
Michael
I'm confused. Is the south pole ice sheet really that tall?
@bertieb I've been enjoying them too. :)
DavidPostill
@bertieb That's 3 now - getting bored with them
bertieb
@Michael Yeah, it's interesting to see things in different perspectives!

> So you want to give endangered whales powerful electric shocks. Great! I'm happy to help. This is definitely a very normal thing to want to do.
Michael
@DavidPostill Excuse me? Did you just say that you don't like xkcd? Heresy.
Liking xkcd is one of the requirements for being in the tech sector.

He really has a thing for whales, doesn't he.
DavidPostill
@Michael LOL. It's just he's done 3 Scales in 2 weeks ... I still like them :)
Michael
@DavidPostill Good. I'll call back the hounds then.
