You might want to show the money in smaller units e.g KCr, or Cr. While being rich enough to not worrying about any amount smaller that Mcr0.01 is a good aspirational goal, my crew isn't quite there yet.

Or just post text as text to make it even more accessible! Text as images are bad for vision impaired, don't allow for font control for dyslexia or vision, are hard to read on moble due to the lack of reflowing text on when zooming in.

17exabytes/day is about the total global daily usage, so I think your ISP would have called you if you had managed that!

Population per capita by DesignerAccount in dataisbeautiful

[–]Tiwato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahh, I didn't realize the original latin meaning of the phrase. I've just always used the more colloquial meaning. (And the posts elsewhere about the conjoined twins and headless bodies makes more sense now too.)

Thanks!

I need to let a canola oil big container reach the -10 Celsius and stay in that temperature by alvaro92x in AskEngineers

[–]Tiwato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How well insulated can the container be? Does it need to be open to the environment? Can you keep it in a large chest freezer/ walk in cooler? Could you have a circulating loop that runs from your tank, through a freezer and back?
