Life
William Lindsay was born in Allegany County, Maryland. There is almost no information available about his life besides politics. Since 1886 he lived in Kansas and for at least some time he resided in Pittsburg. He joined the Democratic Party and in 1936 he was elected as the first Democrat to the office of the Lieutenant Governor of Kansas. He served in this function between 11 January 1937 and 9 January 1939 when his term ended. In this function he was the deputy of Governor Walter A. Huxman. He died on 22 February 1957 in Pittsburg (Kansas).
gollark: The reason they *do* is probably just consistency with other methods (it would be very annoying if they worked very differently to GET routing-wise) and so requests can be routed to the right handler more easily.

gollark: They do have to spin pretty fast. There are sealed helium ones now.

HDDs require a certain range of air densities to operate properly. The connection to the external environment and density occurs through a small hole in the enclosure (about 0.5 mm in breadth), usually with a filter on the inside (the breather filter).[124] If the air density is too low, then there is not enough lift for the flying head, so the head gets too close to the disk, and there is a risk of head crashes and data loss. Specially manufactured sealed and pressurized disks are needed for reliable high-altitude operation, above about 3,000 m (9,800 ft).[125] Modern disks include temperature sensors and adjust their operation to the operating environment. Breather holes can be seen on all disk drives – they usually have a sticker next to them, warning the user not to cover the holes. The air inside the operating drive is constantly moving too, being swept in motion by friction with the spinning platters. This air passes through an internal recirculation (or "recirc") filter to remove any leftover contaminants from manufacture, any particles or chemicals that may have somehow entered the enclosure, and any particles or outgassing generated internally in normal operation. Very high humidity present for extended periods of time can corrode the heads and platters. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive#Integrity
gollark: Interweb says it's to keep pressure equalized between the inside and out.
