Deliberately bad software or bad design is not software gore, it must be something unintentional

Triggered due to incorrect handling of LaTeX. Original answer on the page was 10^80 which ended up getting the exponentiation ignored by google

Ludicrous. Nobody has the time to count 10^80 particles. You may think you're fooling us, but I'm not having NONE of it.

The reason is that we don’t need more. 1080p is what you can observe on a fullHD screen, so there is no need for more.

The eye can't see past 1080p, clearly

4k is a marketing scheme

1080p is enough for everyone

Well have you counted them?

I don't seem to have any particles around here I do have an awful lot of stuff but no particles.

I started counting, but my 10-bit counter maxed out. My answer was quite close to Google's though 👍

A disturbing number of people trust this little and even cite it "according to google"
