- coyote1284, on 06/10/2008, -0/+751,000 trillion? Wouldn't that be 1 quadrillion?
- Chebsi, on 06/10/2008, -3/+64I always thought it was "meep meep".
- SkippyDoorknob, on 06/10/2008, -3/+45Coyote avoidance
- CTK14A, on 06/10/2008, -1/+40In related news, ACME expects to post a loss this quarter...
- sanman, on 06/10/2008, -16/+53beepbeep!
- Gudath, on 06/10/2008, -3/+35You can derive. I call shotgun.
- yaosio, on 06/10/2008, -2/+28I heard it's going to fix the problem where people won't read the article.
- 4321234, on 06/10/2008, -2/+23...to which President Bush replied, "Exactly how many is a Brazilian?"
- Ducksa, on 06/10/2008, -1/+22Brings me back to the computers of old that filled up entire rooms. We laugh at that now. They'll be laughing at this in 20 years.
- coyote1284, on 06/10/2008, -2/+23Avoiding the metal pellets hidden in a random pile of birdseed, determining a real tunnel from a painted one, boulder catapult trajectories
- borez, on 06/10/2008, -1/+18You'd need one hell of a blender
- s4g4n, on 06/10/2008, -2/+19But its also an awful internet provider.
- JayD16, on 06/10/2008, -1/+15It was just "meep" and they doubled it in the editing room.
- awuwish, on 06/10/2008, -1/+14Friends don't let friends drink and derive.
- earliodookie, on 06/10/2008, -2/+15holy ***** man, you need a hug
- yaosio, on 06/10/2008, -0/+11This has nothing to do with the PS3. The cell processors are an IBM creation that are used in the PS3. It's like saying Dell or HP helped build it because their computers use AMD processors.
- Ozzy73, on 06/10/2008, -5/+16I heard you get 60FPS playing Crysis with this rig but you will probably need to upgrade its RAM if Crysis 2 comes out ;)
- Upon66, on 06/10/2008, -3/+13You're a tad late....

1 day 15 hr ago, made popular 1 day 7 hr ago - Waffle07, on 06/10/2008, -0/+10I can derive it in under a second to. Here watch...if you derive any constant...your answer will always be 0!!! Calculus FTW!
- inactive, on 06/10/2008, -1/+11He's actually a coyote.
- DeathStrawberry, on 06/10/2008, -0/+9I think the fictional number is spelled: gajillion.
- ShitStainedBall, on 06/10/2008, -2/+11And failed.
- SkippyDoorknob, on 06/10/2008, -0/+8It's a faster computer, not a faster internet connection.
- TheAngryMob, on 06/10/2008, -1/+9No sweat. I'm sure my new Wile E-PC will catch it. Eventually. Got new RAM from ACME just today!
- protogenxl, on 06/10/2008, -0/+8Wile E. Coyote Super Genius
- Lnet, on 06/10/2008, -3/+10meep meep!
- TobiasParker, on 06/10/2008, -0/+7So we are putting a computer in charge of managing our Nuclear Stockpiles... ... ...Don't these people watch movies?
- RG13, on 06/10/2008, -4/+11"it's 'a very souped-up Sony PlayStation 3.'"
Awesome.
Why use it for simulating nuclear explosions?
I bet that thing would kick ass at folding@home. - ligyron, on 06/10/2008, -7/+14For those noncomputer-savy people, pick a random number between 1 and 1,000,000,000,000,000 and that computer will be able to derive it in under a second assuming you tell it if each guess is right or not
- JerzyBricklayr, on 06/10/2008, -1/+8they should put folding@home on that mofo.
- Ducksa, on 06/10/2008, -2/+810,000 million billion trillion
- doshindude, on 06/10/2008, -2/+8it's probably obsolete by now.
- borez, on 06/10/2008, -1/+6"assuming you tell it if each guess is right or not"
And this would take how long? - n8o8, on 06/10/2008, -0/+5*sigh* Here come the Crysis references...again
- 4321234, on 06/10/2008, -0/+4Although your comment may very well be correct, it sure sounds like famous last words.
- Smuikas, on 06/10/2008, -3/+7int derive() {
int r = math.floor(rand()*1000000000000000);
for(int i=0; i < 1000000000000000; i++) {
if (i == r) return i;
}
} - Slovenian6474, on 06/10/2008, -1/+5Very appropriate name too!
- Gryffydd, on 06/10/2008, -2/+6No, you didn't.
- inactive, on 06/10/2008, -4/+8The Roadrunner doesn't have ***** on that little Asian boy that Mr. Larrity keeps a hold of in Code Monkeys.
- JayD16, on 06/10/2008, -0/+4Well duh. Last time I checked there wasn't a PPC version of windows...
- gforce051, on 06/10/2008, -0/+4No, but since when has anyone with power and money cared about either of those two?
- LeviTheSmith, on 06/10/2008, -0/+4Windows NT 3.51 supported PowerPC
- Chakat, on 06/10/2008, -0/+4The world's fastest computer has always been the size of an entire room and been laughable in 20 years. It's just how the biz works.
- soupnrc, on 06/10/2008, -0/+4It's cool guys, he's probably like 13 years old.
Oh forget it, how could you think Wile E. COYOTE is a fox? - protogenxl, on 06/10/2008, -0/+4No
- TobiasParker, on 06/10/2008, -0/+4It's no big deal, i am hiding in the fridge.
- borez, on 06/10/2008, -0/+3OK
- kreejo, on 06/10/2008, -0/+3It's not a PC, it's a supercomputer, there's a pretty significant difference...
I noticed in the article "three fourths of a second", would this not be three quarters? - digital11, on 06/10/2008, -0/+3What about my welcome?
