There aren’t enough data centers being burned down
Edit: I had listed the lyrics to Boycott Heaven due to recency bias, but after more thought I think it’s Oblivion Song by cloudkissed
🎶It’s comforting to know that in a hundred years or so
🎶My memory will all but fade away
🎶It’s interesting to note that every clumsy song I wrote
🎶Will outlive me by forever and a day
🎶‘Cause despite all my potential I’m quite inconsequential
🎶And these tears that feel torrential will not matter any more
🎶And maybe it sounds morbid, but if my efforts are rewarded by oblivion
🎶That sounds nice to me

These people are demanding to be paid millions for being born. Rinehart got paid billions for being born. Eat the rich
You didn’t happen to see a sign saying “this is not a place of honor,” did you?
I spent so much time playing Kerbal Space Program in the early days that my asshole still puckers when I see a return vehicle heading toward the water
You’re right, they were actually both 15. Doesn’t make it any better tbh
Edit: wait, this movie released when they were both 15, so they were almost certainly 14 at the time of this scene
These girls were like 14 when this was taken btw

7·2 days agoI’m not a computer graphics guy, but I wanna math. Theoretically, if I wanted to make the smallest possible 3d model, I would define it as four interconnected points. Each point has x, y, and z coordinates, so each model takes a theoretical minimum of 12 bytes of storage. Someone who knows computers can correct me if I’m off by a bunch.
The lower estimate is around 100,000,000,000 stars in the Milky Way. That’s only 1.2 terabytes worth of my theoretical minimum 3d model. Doable! But you said all stars. The lower estimate is around 10^22 stars in the universe. That would be 120 zettabytes. That’s only a few orders of magnitude off from the total available worldwide datadata storage!
Edit: I might have thought of a way to define a 3D model in just 2 bytes. You need four points that each have values for x, y, and z. They don’t need 256 possible values for those, they can get by with two each. One bit can store two possible positions, so we can use as little as two bytes to define every point’s position with 4 bits to spare. Behold, a tetrahedron:
0000 0100 1010 1110Each set of four digits defines the x, y, and z coordinates for each point, as well as one extra dimension. You could use those extra four bits however you want. An extra spatial dimension, defining a color, etc. The theoretically smallest possible 3D model. Take the numbers I said up there and divide them by 6. A model for every star in the universe, and it would only take 20 zettabytes.

18·3 days agoRead in an internet comment, so take with a grain, but he apparently had a multistage plan. Started a small fire, fire dept came to deal with it, and company brass had them turn off fire suppression to limit unnecessary damage to product in other areas. It was then that they lit a bunch more fires, and by the time the figured it out, it was too late.
