Sorry to undo the effort of paying a domestic abuser $10 to own this poster, but I am going to lose my dang mind if I keep seeing multiple posters who appear to be Baloogan.

the newest intel chips have trouble finding primes without locking up or hanging

maybe we'll get a new freakazoid out of this glitch

I thought they found it doing something important (like nsa breaking some passwords) but actually it's just performance testing... with prime numbers........

it's important work, there's still an infinite amount of as yet undiscovered numbers

I would estimate that there are approximately a finite amount of numbers that we can discover.

i have some bad news for you, that number was already wholly contained within the digits of π, and as such you're guilty of infringing the intellectual property of π Inc. LLC.

isnt this the point of that random pixel generator thing at that school? some like 200x200 frame generating random pixels or w/e for all time off to some giant server will eventually create a pic of everything. idk. im retarded
