Well, I never posted random IRC chat quotes here. It might be a good thing, it might be a bad thing (I think it's a good thing), but either way, here you go:
<rudy_tipb> url, 10485760*0.94527363184
<url> 9911912.4378026
<funcker> wow, cool. you're using a computer that can do gigaflops of computations per second ... as a dumb terminal, connecting to a server on the internet, talking to a script running on another computer many miles from you, to do simple arithmetic.
<funcker> better still, the query and the results are both splatted across the net via unicast to 50 different people who don't care
* rudy_tipb punches drew in the arm
<iPXR> and better than that, drew, you're using an even more powerful machine, running enormous beautiful dual displays, as a dumb terminal running irc to make sarcastic remarks to rudy
What is even worse, I just made even more traffic with the above quote, effectively increasing the universe entropy and the Net latency.

"Oh, that? That's my calculator."
