That’s how fast downloading a nice 40minute IPTV show took at uni today (It was DigitalLifeTV). It probably would of gotten faster, but it finished while still gaining speed. And yes, that means it was a slow day in the practical labs today.

Also we had some guy with Dr. before his name come in and give a talk on how faith and science are compatible. Ending with the choice of accepting on faith that a God made the universe, or there is an infinite number of parallel universes (as that would be required to get the odds of making one that supports life). Probably the best science type apologetic talk I’ve heard, but one could argue that in a postmodern world such talks are reaching the end of their usefullness. But then we were aiming this event at science students, who still accept the idea of absolute truth (rather than arts students who don’t)
