@jesus kong fu magic

I do believe the thread is asking about cores, not cells :D

Go into After Effects and create an HD composition and overlay as many effects as I could and export it and see how long it takes.

Wow! With 48 core I would:

Pretty much exactly what I do with my quad core.

Years divisible by four, excluding years divisible by one hundred but not divisible by four hundred. Basically all you need to know practically speaking is years divisble by four, which happen to be Summer Olympics years.

OT: Cure cancer.

"Now, a fun game should always be easy to understand - you should be able to take one look at it and know what you have to do straight away. It should be so well constructed that you can tell at a glance what your goal is and, even if you don’t succeed, you’ll blame yourself rather than the game. Moreover, the people standing around watching the game have also got to be able to enjoy it." - Shiggy
