  1. Thanks! Yeah... I pretty much gotta keep the beat of music with something... It's probably pretty annoying If that's what you meant.
  2. Just having one of those moments when you give yourself a bit of a mindfuck. Thinking to myself, if the human memory could be given a number like a computer hard drive, how much information can we really store? Googled it and the answers vary, as you'd imagine, since the brain is one of the most complex inks known to man. Some amateur estimates range from a simple 50kb of active memory, through to between 1-10 terabytes of actual stored information. One professor of psychology placed a huge number on the actual storage based on trillions of neuron connections that make up a memory. The number was 2.5 petabytes. Now, I can't even imagine that in life I could amount 2.5 terabytes if I recorded my life in HD, 24/7. But it's an interesting number. If I had 2.5 petabytes just sitting in my head, I wish I could connect myself up via USB and use some of it.

    Then I came onto my next thought, CPU speed. I mean, the brain is fast. But so Is a CPU, but both work very, very differently. I mean, hand the CPU a really difficult calculation and it'll return the answer when you press enter. But show it something that our brain has already learnt to recognise and the CPU will lose.

    And then there's also the point of actual seeing things. Our brain can process the world in the highest definition and resolution our eyes can see, just imagine how much processing power a computer would need to recreate the world we see. We don't even feel any strain when we open our eyes and take in the world, it's just so easy and so instant for the brain.

    Anyway, point is, I love my brain. Time to put it into sleep now though, after a quick defrag tomorrow morning and maybe a virus scan, I hope to come here and find another brain that is loved
  3. Another good mindfuck is to lie outside, stare into a star filled sky and think about how vast the universe is.

    I'll leave that for another day though, last time I/we did that, it was a long night. Fun though.


    EDIT: Anyone else know anymore good mindfucks? Sharing is caring.
  4. Need something to inspire me during sessions.

    What 360 show should I download?

    I find fucking amazing the fact that I was talking a very similar thing to this post with two of my best friends on Monday. I mean the very fucking same thing, what if we could connect ourselves via USB, how many memory can we store (one of my friends said he had read 2TB) and that stuff. AMAZING. The conversation happened on whatsapp so it can be recovered, although it was on Spanish, that's the downside for you


    PS. I love my brain too. Mine and everyone else's. It's the best piece of engineering that's ever been designed.


  6. We must've wirelessly synchronised.
  7. you guys scare me, seriously







  8. I like the shows from Barcelon , Milan , Berlin and Sheffield ( this have great sound ) from leg 1

    Leg 3: Turin, Helsinski 2, Zurich 2 , Coimbra 2 and Rome

    Leg 6 : La plata 1,2 ands 3 , Sao Pablo 2 and 3

    Leg7 : Anaheim 2 , Nashville and Moncton
  9. I was listening to Barcelona and Milan yesterday and can't believe how much better the sources are compared to the ones I downloaded way back in 2009.
  10. One good mindfuck is always the Grandfather paradox. I'm sure you now it already though.

    Another one is proving that something doesn't exitst.
  11. can't believe I did what I just did.

    Snow Patrol in Hamburg, June 24th 2012 --> ticket bought, train tickets bought. I'm crazy
