When Linus was a young lad, Linus loved using Super PI, a benchmark that calculates PI (who would have thought). Back in the day, he could only calculate 32 million digits of PI, but that was with an old Athlon CPU. Find out how many we can calculate now with the help of KIOXIA (it’s a lot).

Deals for Days. Big home savings are happening now.
For the record, we did not print out 1000+ pages of Pi. It was a stack of new paper. Sorry for the bamboozle.
There's a little poem to remember the digits of Pi : (yes, it's in french…)
Que j’aime à faire apprendre un nombre utile aux sages !
Glorieux Archimède, artiste ingénieux,
Toi de qui Syracuse aime encore la gloire,
Soit ton nom conservé par de savants grimoires !
Jadis, mystérieux, un problème bloquait
Tout l’admirable procédé, l’œuvre grandiose
Que Pythagore découvrit aux anciens Grecs.
O, quadrature ! Vieux tourment du philosophe !
Insoluble rondeur, trop longtemps vous avez
Défié Pythagore et ses imitateurs.
Comment intégrer l’espace bien circulaire ?
Former un triangle auquel il équivaudra ?
Nouvelle invention : Archimède inscrira
Dedans un hexagone, appréciera son aire,
Fonction du rayon. Pas trop ne s’y tiendra
Dédoublera chaque élément antérieur ;
Toujours de l’orbe calculée approchera ;
Définira limite ; enfin, l’arc, le limiteur
De cet inquiétant cercle, ennemi trop rebelle !
Professeur, enseignez son problème avec zèle !
Im starting to think that ltt is just a team of people playing factorio in real life
8000W? You should use a generator lmao
But for real extremely cool, you should run denoising on the data and call it P(a)i
i can think of no better use for that electricty
is this some google level type shi?
You should have calculated 314,159,265,358,979 digits, but you weren't clever enough to think of it.
How amazing would it be if you found the end of the number? And you were like, "oh. it has an end. Who knew?". Well it's probably 300,000,000,000,001 digits where it ends.
19mins of idk wtf is going on but great to see them achieve something amazing
When's tiered vault storage?
Jake you poor, poor man. the devotion to the bit is insane
17:17 Peanuts! Markiplier's home render farm was costing him over 5k USD a month in electricity, WITH help from solar on the roof. =)
1.6 terabits isn't a lot of terabits… It's a lot of bits… 😂
They got more RAM capacity than most computers have storage. Thats insane.
Its a missed chance to not calculate as many digets as at numbers in pi, so 314 … Trillion
and i am here sweating when i opened up my laptop
think about the amont of text taht requires so much storage just to store it
13:20 "Only about a 120 terabytes compressed…" "Oh, so not that much."
Bröther…
#cardboard server rack 😀
Could it run doom though?
and you only need 40 digits to calculate the circumference of the observable universe, to the accuracy of 1 hydrogen atom
A worthy opponent for Dr. Stone
Imagine they calculate it and actually find the end of pi… lol
Everyone knows Pi=E= 3 so this was a waste of time, but as a engeneer I love overcomplicating something that doesn't need to.
Ok, but can it run crysis?
Since you shaved your beard and moustache you have been making many innovative projects show my advice is don't grow them again
Linus and co., you guys need to figure out a better way than to present content in front of a running server. It's too annoying and just makes people want to close your video. Maybe a voiceover, just repeating what was said in the video, or something. Please figure something out
Print a T-shirt…. Print a T-shirt….
Can test Stockfish 17 in your super computer?
2:08 For reference, 11.7 billion pages of A4 would fill just under twenty-two Olympic swimming pools.
How did they verify that it was actually correct ? Did they just assume, and then gave you the certificate ?
just enough storage to run gta6
"lab server room is 45c lol"
I'm happy it was linus who did it
Whatever that world record is who cares. I need the dotfiles for that terminal more than anything
God Damn Jake's looking good!
but can it run crysis?
having a Wall dedicated to the world record with the paper as some kind of wall paper would be kinda of cool
