I enjoyed Tron: Legacy...better than I thought it would be with some nice little retro touches and a great score. 8/10 :!:

It will only start to break when post IDs get to the limits of their storage, which in phpBB (I believe) is a unsigned mediumint in MySQL, which is 3 bytes. So as long as we don't do more than 2^24 = 16,8 million posts, we'll be fine. That's total by the way, not per topic, although per topic the same limit exists. The total amount of pages would by that logic be 1118482 pages. :)

I believe NeoThermic has at some point claimed that the universe will explode at 16.8 million posts - this is why. :P

Jelco


Worst-case, we could always throw an unsigned int in the general direction of the table... that'd allow us 4,294,967,295 posts... Or, failing that a BIGINT (which should never be discussed without the caps!) which would allow 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 posts...

I'll leave the maths of how long it'd take us to fill 4.3 billion and 18 quintillion (short scale; trillion on the long scale) posts respectively at the rate of posts in this thread. Bonus points for working out how many pages that'll be and how much storage that'd require using the stats from whenever they were last run... ;)

Now we just have to wait for the rest of society to catch up.

My performance seems to have dropped considerably with the update, hopefully this is a bug that'll get squashed.

Watched Tron last night and I have to say I'm disapointed. I was really looking forward to this movie. Perhaps I set the expectation bar too high.

It wasn't really bad, but it wasn't great either. :?

I enjoyed it, because I really wasn't expecting too much. I enjoyed the original (as much as it can be enjoyed from the first download I found :(), and I knew that whatever they do with it can't really be better. I got what I expected, really - it was fun, I'd recommend it, but there are other movies I'd recommend far more.

Aye...I think they should have just remade the first one.
