I'm just some guy, you know.

  • Yeah, it always seems that every time someone questions the wisdom or validity of this analogy seems not to understand it.

    It's either the misunderstanding that the constraints of the hypothetical are finite (a million vs. infinity).

    Or the insistence that any sufficiently infinitesimal chance is "practically zero", when literally any likelihood multiplied by infinity is going to guarantee an occurrence.

    You can actually expand the infinite monkey theory to say that an infinite number of monkeys using typewriters for an infinite amount of time would write every single book ever written in any language the keyboard is capable of typing, as well as every possible book that could ever even theoretically exist, an infinite number of times, and still be correct.

    Any infinite set of random (or even semi-random) characters will contain every possible set of characters that could ever exist, of any length. The works of Shakespeare are also encoded into Pi, we just haven't calculated enough digits to discover one yet (and very likely never will).

    But the company contracted to fit the tag to Delap was unable to attach one to her ankle because of a health condition, and there are no devices available small enough to fit wrists her size.

    Excellent plan. Even worse than the current system. You're a genius.

  • The billionaires who own the meat industry thank you for your loyalty. Best not to get the idea in your head that protein can be harvested at home for cheap.

  • I've got news for you. Elon Musk agrees with you 200% and wants to fire the entire government so that he can replace it with his companies and become a trillionaire.

  • I can get a 2.5TB backup tape for about $10.

    That's $0.004/GB

  • I mean, "game cheats" might be an understatement. Bungie runs an online service, and Ring-1 is creating and selling millions of dollars worth of exploits that allow users to cheat at a game that includes financial transactions and competitive play, by exploiting the servers that run the game.

    Successfully attacking their online service, while indicative of Bungie running an insecure service, would be considered a form of cybercrime, as compared to simply exploiting the game code on your machine. You can't legally make and sell hacking tools that exploit online services.

    And cheating at competitive play with real-world stakes is fraud.

  • Okay, crypto bro. Too bad nobody asked.

  • Yeah, but that's pronounced "Feuck".

  • If you don't really want kids or care, you have a fine compromise here, but if you are sacrificing something you want in life, you should be honest with your parents about who you are and have kids for your own sake. You're an adult, and you shouldn't live your life based on what your parents would approve of.

  • Disgusting!

  • Naw, look at that play button. You don't see it?

  • Does anyone else see a vague resemblance to goatse in the map, or is it just my decades of being poisoned by the Internet?
