I honestly haven't noticed a difference.

Me too. I have a Brother printer. When I first set it up, Windows printed everything in inverse black and white until I hunted down the correct driver. Windows also never figured out how to wake it up, so I always had to manually wake it up. And it simply never worked with the scanner.
Linux got everything right without me having to fuss with anything.
This was the push I needed to switch to Graphene. The Gemini offer popped up for me a couple of weeks ago. The only options were something like 'Yes' or 'Not now'. No option to say never, which of course means they would bug me again and again.
So I reported it as Spam and made the jump.
To me, this is its biggest flaw. You can't scroll back in chats very far, but you can search for lines further back. However in a truly spectacular display of uselessness, the search only returns the chat bubble you searched for, with no surrounding context.
When I had it, my only symptoms were in my nose, too. Not nearly as bad as you, but I constantly felt like I had a bunch of water up my nose... The same feeling you get when you swim on your back underwater. It was a really weird sensation.
Not necessarily. It varies by manufacturer, and some manufacturers use both methods for the various HD's they make. Both work just fine, and both have their strengths and weaknesses.
Former industry guy here.
Some HD's park the head on a plastic ramp at the OD of the platter stack. I don't see that structure in your picture.
Others park the head on the platter itself. This area is always not usable area, since contact isn't great for data integrity. This is a simpler solution but comes at the cost of reduced data capacity.
I don't recall if this park area is on the ID or OD (it's been a long time), but the position in your picture is reasonable since it would cost less disk area..
...and nothing of value was lost.
