Mac OS X’s Magical Undecillion

5 April, 2008 (22:28) | Tehchnology | By: Kyle Weber

I was curios how well OS X can say number magnitudes, and while doing so found out something very interesting. If you go to the terminal and type “say 1000000000000000000000000000000000000″ (which is one undecillion), you get a buss error. If you go to textedit, enter that number, and tell it to speak it (under the [...]

On your cell phone, create a new text message. The number for the message is 466-453. For the body of the message do [...]

While setting up my linux server running Ubuntu in VMWare Fusion to perform automated backups, I found no matter what I could not get it to log onto my macs side with key-based SSH authentication.  So after an archive and install and a few hours on the phone / over iChat with Jesse, we found the problem [...]
