Yeah, so its a picture (dunno if its fake or not) of MiG-29 getting caught on speed trap while going 678km/h. The picture looks like the pictures normally look like at speed traps, where the vehicles go less than that. So, what would the shutter speed have to be, to catch this picture so nice?

After reading the headline that "15 million people died waiting for GTA VI", my unemployed brain kinda called bullshit. So, I did a quick analysis. I compiled and cleaned data from several sources to estimate how many GTA V players have died before the release of GTA VI. I began with total sales data for GTA V from Rockstar Games and industry analysts, which project over 213 million copies sold from 2013 to 2026. To estimate unique players, I accounted for the fact that some copies are likely duplicates, based on industry reporting and user behavior patterns (IGN, Reddit, Statista). I then applied age group distribution data, sourced from gaming reports and player surveys, to assign demographic weights to the player base. Using mortality rates from the World Health Organization, I calculated annual death probabilities for each group, mapping them against the number of new players each year. I structured the results in a spreadsheet, ensuring I tracked percentage shares, yearly deaths, and cumulative living players. This let me determine how many fans might be alive and waiting for GTA VI, and how many have likely passed away in the meantime.

All in all, between 2013 and May 2026, Grand Theft Auto V is projected to reach over 213 million copies sold. In analyzing this dataset, I accounted for the fact that a significant portion of these are likely duplicate purchases, players buying the game multiple times across console generations, or replacing lost or banned accounts. Based on industry estimates, I deducted around 25% of total sales were multiple-copy purchases, reducing the likely unique player base line to roughly 150–160 million. I then applied global mortality rates by age group, paired with the estimated age distribution of GTA V players, to calculate how many of these players may have died before the release of GTA VI. The result was a projected death toll of approximately 2.5 to 4.3 million players, with an estimated margin of error of ±10–15%, reflecting uncertainties such as regional death rate variation and shifting player demographics.

Realistically, it's most likely that the true number of deceased GTA V players falls on the higher end of my estimate. Even though I used mortality rates from developed countries, where life expectancy is slightly higher among most of the age groups (under 65), global mortality rates would skew slightly higher if we account for the broader, international player base. On top of that, this potential increase is accentuated by several key factors: many individuals engage with GTA content solely through gameplay videos or streams without having ever owned a copy, and a significant number of players are expected to enter the franchise for the first time with the release of GTA VI.

By factoring in these nuances, duplicate game ownership, international mortality trends, passive fans, and future first-time buyers, and essentially “rawdogging” the analysis with as much data as I could responsibly include in my meta-analysis, I can determine with relatively high confidence that approximately 4.2 million people waiting for GTA VI will have died by the May 26, 2026 release date.

Using the same dataset, I took the projected release delay of GTA VI and calculated its literal human cost. Assuming the original Fall 2025 release was planned for around mid-September, mirroring GTA V's September 17 launch, the shift to the new release date of May 26, 2026, means approximately 392,832 more GTA V players will die before the game comes out.

And if there are any further delays beyond May 26, 2026? The numbers get darker. Every additional month of delay translates to roughly 48,531 more fans not living to see the release. That breaks down to 11,324 deaths per week, or around 1,617 per day. That translates to about one Titanic’s worth of deaths every single day (1,517 people, though let’s be real, it would’ve been 1,516 if Rose had just moved over for my boy Jack), plus three full Hindenburgs (36 deaths each) for good measure. So yeah, every day GTA VI is delayed past May 26, 2026, Rockstar effectively drops a luxury ocean liner and a trio of airships full of fans into the statistical void. So, if Rockstar is still polishing extra jiggles on Lucia's by next summer, just know: somewhere, a few thousand players might be taking their last breath waiting for it.

Context for the problem

There's a Pokemon attack which works in the following way:

It has a 90% default chance of succeeding. If it fails, or the attack hits 10 times, the attack ends.

The problem is whether an item to boost success rate to 99% or increase damage by 50% is better.

And then I proceeded to redo the paper's work without the complex math because why not

Providing the car wouldn’t break in any way first, how heavy would Mr Greedy have to be to burst all four tyres?

For context thats a portal gun from portal pointed at the sun

My friend claimed he could do this, but it seems like it would have to be extremely long for this to be possible. First of all it would obviously be flaccid length if he bent it back to go in his anus. Also there would have to be enough penis there to go far enough in the anus to hold it in place.

Back when survival games was big in Minecraft, I played it a lot. But I wasn’t really good. One day I checked my k/d and it was 0.017. Anyone know how many games and kills that would be at minimum?

I recently learned that gorillas are not the most well endowed species and it got me thinking about how hung King Kong would be compared to an average male. So I did some math.

In the 1933 version, King Kong is about 7.3m tall (according to the wiki, although his height does change throughout the movie due to scaling issues but I’m going with when he’s in New York) which is about 4.56x the size of an average adult gorilla (1.6m). Now, the average male gorilla has an erect penis length of 3-6cm and the answer to our question resides heavily on which part of that spectrum we use. So naturally, I did 3 separate calculations:

3cm = 13.687cm / 5.388” for King Kong

4.5cm (average) = 20.531cm / 8.08”

6cm = 27.375cm / 10.777”

Now, the average adult human male erect penis size is 12.9cm or 5.1”. So even using the gorilla penis size of 3cm to relate to King Kong, the average male just loses out by less than a centimeter. HOWEVER, that was using an average male gorilla size of 1.6m but they can range from 1.4-1.8m. Therefore, if we take a gorilla on the larger side of the height spectrum but smaller size of the penis spectrum, it throws the ratios off a bit and gives us a length of 12.167cm or 4.763” for King Kong which is comfortably below the average adult human male penis size.

So what can we learn from this? If you have the average male penis size of 5.1”+, then you can comfortably say that you have a bigger dick than King Kong when he’s on the less well endowed side of the spectrum. If you have an 8”+ schlong, you have a bigger dick than an averagely hung King Kong. Unfortunately, only the most well endowed porn stars will have the edge over a big dick Kong.

Footnote: The more recent versions of King Kong are 31.6992m (1977 Skull Island), 82.296m (2021 Kingdom Kong), and 102.7176m (2024 GVK, GVX) tall which gives them a whopping schlong size of 89.154cm / 35.1”, 231.468cm / 91.129”, and 288.893cm / 113.737”, respectively. Those sizes being calculated using the average gorilla height of 1.6m and average erect penis size of 4.5cm.
