He is talking about a googolplex.

(1*10^100)^2

Actually a googolplex would be 10^(10^100). It's a 1 with a googol zeroes.

A 100 zeroes, a google being a number with a googol zeroes cannot be :)

You would say that 10^100 = 10^(10^100) :)

well atleast it explains why we use so much of it! secretly we are holding back the ocean! also ever wounder what fps god gets on the universe?

Actually, as God exists outside time, and time is a function of the universe, which is part of the game, and thus determined by the FPS, it would be something like 1/0 FPS.

Alternatively, from our perspective, it could be seen as being 5.4e44 FPS, where one frame defines one Planck Second. Although admittedly, this is much the same as claiming "One second per second", as it's all subjective to us, we being inside the simulation, with the FPS defining the flow of time.

I think you misunderstand. A googol is a 1 with 100 zeroes and a googolplex is a 1 with a googol zeroes.
So...
Googol=10^100
Googolplex=10^(10^100)

Writing down the number googolplex in the decimal system would take longer than earth's age. With the help of every human being.

To prove his theory, these here are 10,000 zeroes, not even remotely close to the 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
zeroes a googleplex counts.

MC Dirty, I see my mistake now, sorry, I misread.

A normal computer system is a clever combination of ones and zeros. Yours is All zeros. I can sell you the ones, but you have to assemble them yourself.

Obscure joke!

Enough of this insanity!

Has anybody tried stupid coal trick with charcoal or bitumous coal? I know that charcoal burns long ... really looong. But does it burn longer as lignite?

Also does burning object (for example leather) burn longer when in bin or it does not matter?

It does if you drop it into water.
The point of the bin is that it keeps water from touching the burning object and extinguishing it.

The wiki is notoriously inaccurate on subjects at the cutting edge, frequently reflecting passing memes, folklore, or the word on the street instead of true dwarven science.

I'm just waiting for someone to mod in 'neutron source' as a long burning item and place it in a uranium bin.

Because you know that would be awesome.

Especially if you can hook a mechanism to it to power the pumps.

Is there no possibility to use the fire to power something? (Does water condensate after vaporising?
