I will never make it to one billion here and just hope to make it to 500 million since I am getting close to starting my 18th non-stop year here ( my 18th year at Cern begins in 10 days)
I wouldn't mind getting that *pure luck* Certificate but I would rather get a dollar for each Credit here
Imagine the Threadrippers and video cards I could buy then AND the power bill I could pay
and the wife would quit complaining too
Wives will always find something to complain about!! For instance mine is now complaining that my Raspberry Pi's are 'taking up too much room', this in a room she almost never goes into!! I bought a 'tower' to put the Pi's in and she then complained I was spending more money on them.
In a few months I hope to have my 'computer room' back up and running again, hopefully all the pc's will come back on again and then I can start making a difference towards some of my goals.

I told all my friends I could teach them how to be funny, but they all just started laughing at me.

Look at this, I finally made it to 1,000,000,000 credits!
Now, if only the credits could be paid out even as little as $0.01 per credit, I'd still have $10,000,000. ;^)
