Have you ever wondered why the Recycling Bin on your desktop is called a Recycling Bin? I mean, what do we recycle? Do our old essays and blurry pictures and lolcats really get turned into something else after we delete them? I always thought that when I deleted stuff the old files just disappeared into oblivion, but apparently I'm wrong. The pixels from blurry pictures get channeled back to t3h Interwebs or Adobe Photoshop and are regrouped into a magnificent new picture that boasts "100% recycled material," right?
No, seriously, why have I never noticed this before? What is this desktop recycling business all about?
