In other words, you can smash your foes and horde untold wealth, but eventually something will destroy you

Sounds like Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri.

Cheers....man I loved that show

Modern economics:

E=mc^2
c_0 = 2.998e8 m/s
c^2 = 8.988e16 m^2/s^2
c^2*80kg = 1.718e15 kcalories
1.718e15kcal/(2000kcal/day) = 2.352e9 years!

So apparently an average human has enough energy to survive for 2.4 billion years. I am never eating again.

So apparently an average human has enough energy to survive for 2.4 trillion years. I am never eating again.

Seems like a good idea.

 

[TMac3000]

I would still eat, just for the pleasure of it.

2.4e9 is 2 *billion* years.

Maybe that's the logic in cannibalism? :lol:

2 1/2 billion more precisely

They say you can never have too much storage, but I just can't see what anyone would ever need 5 TB for:blink: All the stuff I need to back up doesn't even come to 8 GB...

Underwater, no one can hear you scream.*

*It's because you would drown if you attempted to scream underwater.

Actually, you can still hear others underwater, just not very loud. I know that from experience.

Yes, I'm implying that I've screamed underwater to see if others can hear it

In Space, no-one can hear you scream,





Unless your transmitting on the right radio frequencies...

Clearly you have never worked with video. HD and beyond footage are HUGE files. I could fill up 5 TB rather quickly. In fact, I have, times over.

And yet a 25 GB Blu-ray can hold a 2 hour HD movie?

That is after its been edited and chopped and compressed.

The .wmv compression of Windows Movie Maker (including the downloadable HD plugin) gave me decent quality with a relatively low filesize. My XR2 videos were only a few hundred MB (or maybe even less; in the tens if in 480p), as far as I could remember.

Indefinite time sure is short :uhh:

 

[Cras]

A professional level capture will be about 1 GB per 1 minute of HD footage. More if you go beyond HD, to like 2k or 4k
