I memorized the first 100 and some digits for Pi Day.
Posted by: Dillon | Wednesday, April 27, 2005 at 07:18 PM
Now if I could only remember that number to only ten places!

that's pretty cool
Posted by: mrshll | Wednesday, April 27, 2005 at 07:23 PM
I think there is an error somehere in there could you double-check. It's important for my upcoming voyage.
Posted by: John | Wednesday, April 27, 2005 at 07:31 PM
Ha ha. I fell for it. Here's a poem to remember Pi to the 20th decimal place. Count the letters in each word to get the digits:
Sir, I send a rhyme excelling
In sacred truth and ridgid spelling
Numerical sprites elucidate
For me the lexicon's dull weight.

Can anyone find a string of less than 5 numbers that does not exist somewhere in that number?
Posted by: Kenizzle | Wednesday, April 27, 2005 at 09:27 PM
Either the creator of this site didnt think it would be checked or else Pi has been 'solved'. I say that in the same way that 1/3 can be 'solved' It has a repeating number system in it.
Posted by: TSS Fan | Thursday, April 28, 2005 at 07:53 AM
This is absolutely hilarious geek humor! How many of you realize that this guy registered only the numbers to the right of the decimal point as his domain name, then created a subdomain of 3? LOL ROFL!

This is easily one of the more impressive things I've seen in the past week, I know I don't have the patience to go past what the calculator will show...
Posted by: Veggs | Thursday, April 28, 2005 at 10:56 AM
well, call me stupid, but I dont get a joke, and I dont see a pattern... if anyone wants to enlighten me... I will... uh, well, I wont do anything, but I will appreciate it!!

Dear God why?
Posted by: Chris Carruth | Thursday, April 28, 2005 at 11:43 AM
TooBlonde: There's not a pattern. That's the point of Pi. No one has solved it to where it finally stops. It just goes on and on and on.

Hi Sarah,
It just goes to show you what happens when people have too much time--and computing power--on their hands!
Looking forward to seeing you on AOTS!
Hugs,
Uncle Tim

Oh, well, I guess I knew that. I suppose from the posts, I thougt there was more to "get".
Thanks!

Posted by: radical ed | Friday, April 29, 2005 at 11:18 AM
Did the person who wrote the computer program for that have NO life? Even having Pie is better than Pi

Sarah: (giggles) Your hard drive sure was in my Xbox last night! If you know what I mean!

I remember doing something like that with Mathematica. It didn't take too long either. Just some free time and nothing better to do. ;)

Sara - I didn't know whether you'd seen this news report or not:

I I remember had a Spyware program you had to pay for it to use it, but it was a great program. It had a red interface. It took a long time to scan but it found stuff Ad-Aware and Spybot could not find. If any one know of this program Sara recomend please make a post or email me.
Also Kevin on TSS talk about a program to wipe your hole hard drive. It would format it and kill all the data. If any one know of that porgram please let me know. That you
One thing Sara and Kevin are doing a great job, But I still love the old TSS so the best I just wish G4 could see that.

wow someone had to much time on their hands to figure that one out, and who really needs to know pi beyond 3.1416 not me. any way i thought it was a cool idea but i wander how true it is. i mean there is bound to be error there with a million places. any way cool site sarah
Posted by: Andrew Bourque | Tuesday, May 03, 2005 at 06:09 PM
This and Nick Ciske's binary convertor rule the internet for me.
Posted by: Nephets | Friday, May 06, 2005 at 02:04 AM
Well the value of pi is either conclusive evidence of the hand of God in the creation of the universe. Or maybe it means nothing at all. Is it common for a simple geometric ratio to be irrational or is it evidence of some heavy tweaking during creation to make it 'just so'? Oh yeah, I think I am lost what is this place and how did I get here?

I mean no disrespect to Sarah but I presonally prefered the techtv version of tss....
Posted by: Lorelei | Friday, July 08, 2005 at 06:41 PM
I mean no disrespect to Sarah but I personally prefered the Techtv version of TSS because it was more geeky....
