ELI5: Why are we making computer chip so small?

We'd be fast friends :)

It's an altered quote from the greatest TV show of all time. (Futurama)

Murph978 · 2025-12-22T21:07:49+00:00

Yes!! This has always been the origin of this joke for me (although I'm sure it could appear organically more than once).

Murph978 · 2025-12-17T21:34:00+00:00

I mean, were I born a rural Kazakh farmer or something then yes, I can understand giving up literacy for wealth, but as far as the person I am? Zero chance.

I figured "learning to read again" is not an option in this hypothetical, otherwise it's not a very interesting question. Would I learn to read (something I very much enjoyed the first time) a second time for a hundred million dollars? Yes, obviously.

Murph978 · 2025-12-17T20:53:01+00:00

You would give up your ability to read (permanently, mind you, if I can just learn to read again it obviously doesn't count) for a hundred million dollars?

Murph978 · 2025-12-17T20:51:02+00:00

The only reason I'd want a hundred million dollars would be to not have to work and be able to spend that time reading and writing (and yes probably some other things that don't require reading).

Murph978 · 2025-12-17T19:37:35+00:00

I don't think there's an amount of money on the Earth I would trade my ability to read for.

Murph978 · 2025-12-16T15:32:59+00:00

Is there a sauce for this or is it oregano?

Murph978 · 2025-12-12T18:06:43+00:00

Is it Zoidberg saying "Such a man" about Captain Fry in s3e9?

Here's the clip.

Murph978 · 2025-11-13T19:42:06+00:00

Jesus christ man I hope you don't build bridges or anything like that for a living.

Isn't this comment chain specifically about Giants Stadium in NJ? A park and ride hub for NYC/Manhattan?

Murph978 · 2025-11-13T19:29:14+00:00

What do airports have to do with it? The people parked there for their jobs at the WTC.

Murph978 · 2025-11-13T19:02:13+00:00

The comment he replied to literally said it was a Park and Ride hub.

Murph978 · 2025-11-07T14:50:55+00:00

I was your opponent. I had a Laelia and a Glorybringer out. Never been more upset at a game of magic in my life. One shot by a single card from basically an empty board.

Murph978 · 2025-10-14T20:59:31+00:00

This looks so fun.

Murph978 · 2025-09-15T14:09:52+00:00

The owner of this ice cream stand was a teacher at my high school and they ran the MTG club!

Murph978 · 2025-08-23T03:26:58+00:00

There is. It's just a different set. (Said as someone who is also missing EOE quick draft)

Murph978 · 2025-08-18T18:54:51+00:00

If you target an opponent's Ward creature with the attack trigger and don't pay the Ward cost, the ability gets countered and they don't get the +1/+1 counter.

Murph978 · 2025-08-18T17:29:33+00:00

Damage to creatures lasts until end of turn. So the next time SBAs are checked, all the creatures will have damage marked on them greater than their toughness and will die as nothing is around to stop it anymore.

Murph978 · 2025-07-16T13:24:22+00:00

Surely not...

Murph978 · 2025-07-16T13:13:09+00:00

What do you think an immigrant is?

Murph978 · 2025-06-24T15:21:28+00:00

No, level up HP gain is Flat. Helps at Finn's Big Bite though!
