If you fart consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb.

It is recessive to have five fingers and dominant to have six.

When you sneeze is comes out at almost 600 miles per hour.

Did you know that a sneeze is 1/10 of an orgasm? HAHA

100% of all non smokers die. lol... time to start smoking

The average person falls asleep in seven minutes. (my ass...)

The name Wendy was made up for the book, Peter Pan.

The human eye can see 7,000,000 colors. So why does 32 bit color have 16.7 million colors?

"Craig588, died age 16, sneezed twice in a row"

The reason for the higher number of colors is for higher percision when applying multiple layers to one scene. Say you had a wall with 2 textures on it and lights hitting it from 2 different sources, you would now only have 8 bits for each layer. In an ever more extream case, you could be looking through a glass window at a pool with lights all around it and with people casting shadows everywhere and the water reflecting the people and shadows, in that case you might be lucky to have 1 bit for each pixel LOL.

Thats why John Carmack is pushing for 64 and 128 bit color.

System Specs

32 bit colour tends to be only 24 bit with an extra byte added for word alignment to suit 32 and 64 bit buses.

24 bit (256 level RGB) still cannot represent the whole gamut of visible colours and does not really leave enough leeway for processing - that's why, with a 48 bit scanner, you should do contrast, level adjust and anything else you can while you still have a surplus of bits.


PS. If you hold your head underwater for 5 minutes, it stops your hiccups - and any other problems you may have!

Yea I've gotten that before. Feels like every muscle in your back ripped. Then it hurts for a few minutes to move your back. Yea.....that sucks.

LOL...yeah I have that happen sometimes, but it is only on the really hard sneezes. And for some reason my pain is only in my arms and shoulders, but man does it hurt.

Maybe, but I'd much rather have an orgasm the traditional way.
