There are more possibilities for the order of a deck of cards than their are atoms in the universe.
Correct.

IF you shuffle a deck of cards, it is likely the first time in history that has ever been in that order.
They say this is the case but I'm not so sure. Starting points tend to get repeated. A new deck is usually sorted by suit, ans a used deck is in a certain order because of decisions made in the previous game.
Some possible combinations don't happen unless you do it intentionally. If the clubs are A-K, then the spades, then the diamonds, then the hearts except 2,3,4 are reverse order, that didn't happen in a game and is extremely unlikely to happen in a shuffle.

I’m pretty sure we landed on the moon before the pasta pot was invented.
The one where the lid locks and you can drain the pasta without dirtying an extra strainer

But most people don't boil pasta with a lid on, so you are dirtying an extra item regardless.

Think about it like this. If there were 4B people in the world and the average number of legs was 2 per person, there would be 8B legs. However, you have to consider there are some people who have only one leg or even no legs (genetic issue, war injury requiring amputation, cancer requiring amputation, etc.) There are also some people with more than 2 legs, but not as many as there are people with less than two legs.
So...add up all of the legs attached to humans in the world and divide it by the number of humans in the world. It comes out the less than 2 legs per person.
In a similar vein, the average person has roughly 1 testicle (somewhere between 0.5 and 1.0).

14% of people in the U.S. believe in vampires.
Demons and Ghosts each garner belief from more than 45% of people.

I'm 43 and I've been alive in 6 different decades. My friends and I just realized this when we were all drinking the other night. Kinda blew my mind.

Sure but I wouldn’t have thought it’d be that significant of a number.

That people actually believe the big lie and that the orange piece of shite won the 2020 election. Why some of the retarded dumbasses even post on this board.

We are putting a full terabyte of data on a mini SD card.
I remember when the top home PCs didn’t come with a hard drive as an option. The top option was dual 5 1/4” floppy drives. 1983ish.
The first home PC hard drives I remember were 10MB capacity and about the size of a paving brick from Home Depot. Circa 1988. And very expensive.

Forgive me if you’re kidding but, NASCAR tracks hold 250,000. Indianapolis motor speedway can hold 400,000.
In the list of "Largest Stadiums", racetracks, automotive or otherwise, are not included as "Stadiums".
The largest "Sports Venues" include racetracks. Indy is considered the largest with a capacity of 257,325. There are no NASCAR tracks on that list above 200k. The largest being Texas Motor Speedway at #5 with a capacity of 181,655.
He's likely counting overall number of people that may be let into these tracks on race days, including the infield and such, versus actual seating capacity.

I’m a network engineer but as a side perk (
) I’m also the IT department for our firm. Out storage was filling up and I asked my boss about buying a 1 tb solid state drive. He was really fretting the cost and asking if we could clean up some files instead. I said it was only about $90. And he was shocked.
He said, I remember selling 1tb SATA storage in the 90s over a bunch of disks and getting $10-100k purchase orders for it.
Despite the ridiculous price of iPhones, computer chips and storage have gotten more powerful and storage larger to decreasing costs over the decade.
My $300 60 inch tc has a better picture than a $10,000 TV in 2000.
It’s a bit ridiculous and a bit of semantics, but true that our iPhones have more processing power and cpu than NASA did at the Apollo launch.

There are two kinds of people in the world, those who can extrapolate from incomplete sets of data.
