<joelteon> guys
<glowcoil> hi
<joelteon> ok I was trying to figure out how to calculate dice probabilities
<joelteon> but i found the sequence on oeis
<joelteon> when rolling 20 dice, there's a 1 in 3,656,158,440,062,976 chance of getting 20 or 120
<joelteon> the odds of rolling a 70 with 70 dice is 1 in 2,955,204,414,547,681,244,658,707,659,790,455,381,671,329,323,051,646,976
<joelteon> so not likely

<whitequark> literally says "this cannot be translated"
<whitequark> or, more correctly, "no translation"
<whitequark> actually makes you think about the significance and recognition of quoting in natural languages
<glowcoil> ugh
<glowcoil> i just want some mono versions of the beatles that aren't shitty vinyl rips
<glowcoil> but every remaster is in fucking stereo
<glowcoil> ok found the solution
<glowcoil> there's a box set of all the monos
<glowcoil> and a box set of all the stereos
<glowcoil> and i can mix and match
eligrey has quit [Quit: Leaving]
<ELLIOTTCABLE> glowcoil: … mono? why?
<ELLIOTTCABLE> wat
<glowcoil> ELLIOTTCABLE: because pre-white-album beatles is shit in stereo
<glowcoil> ELLIOTTCABLE: drums panned hard left and vocals panned hard right for the novelty
<glowcoil> ELLIOTTCABLE: it's comparable to lots of projectiles going towards the screen in early 3D movies
<glowcoil> ELLIOTTCABLE: also the beatles themselves were often present for the mono mixing sessions, but not stereo, until white album and onwards
<glowcoil> ELLIOTTCABLE: like, after white album there is no mono, because it was no longer just a novelty but like, real life
