Does that include grinding with Crusader in Diablo 3 for hours per day (ok ok, "for hours" sounds so "hardcore" max for one hour before and after work). You know, killing hordes of evil zombies and demons isn't an easy task

In my case, this would be feverishly browsing imgur.com. I doubt it counts, though.

Yeah - and if you think about it, 1 hr/day is about 3 complete years by the time you are seventy.
But...if you take out the time you sleep (and the hour a day exercising) it gets more complex.
7 years = 7 * 365.25 * (24 - 8 - 1) = 38,351.25 hours.
But...to get that extra time, you have spent 25,267.5 hours in the gym.
And it will feel like twice that. Plus there is the time travelling to and from the gym, putting on the silly clothes, taking a shower (again), dressing normally again...
You are statistically better off dying earlier and using the time you could have spent exercising enjoying yourself. And you get less exposure to Radio 1

My point exactly. Nothing beats maths.

why not do it home like the rest of us ...
A bit of adventure is probably just fine ... but each day, at the gym, that seems a bit extreme ...

Wow, if I eat more fatty foods, stop all my exercise, I lose 6 years,
gives me 23 left. I have to work for about 8 more, and I have enough money
to last 10 after that. Maybe if I drop the veggies...
Thanks... Best retirement planning tool EVER!

Bit of a problem here, I'm 59 and male, but my liver is only 43 and female.
So splitting the difference between 75 and 90 gives me 82.5, which would give me 23.5 years to go.
Not considering future bioprinting of other replacement parts and cyborg enhancements I'll no doubt opt for.

Dearest Mrs Wife, for reasons she alone comprehends, bought a piano. No one plays, but she's decided that she wants one.
So the piano was bought and we collected it yesterday with the help of a very clever piano moving man. But no, it is not a piano, it is a pianola - a self playing piano. The sellers did not know it was a pianola and once we got it home we found, inside the case, two dozen rolls of music. The mechanism doesn't seem to work, but it may just be that I don't know hos it is supposed to operate. Brute force and ignorance will not suffice.
So now I need to find someone who can help me work out how the elephant this thing works. I think it will be quite fun to get the mechanism sorted out and serviced.
In the mean time, it's back to 20 Tunes for Little Hands for me.

How old is this thing? I thought they stopped producing self playing pianos the moment they invented recording, around 1920'ich...

We have no idea when it was made, but it is lovely.
