Commonness
Aircraft carrier is the fifteenth most common still life in Achim Flammenkamp's census, being less common than long barge but more common than paperclip.[1] It is also the twentieth most common object on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue. It is the fourth most common (second rarest) 6-bit still life, being less common than the barge but nearly four times as common as the snake.[2]
gollark: I heard that general mesh-network routing was extremely hard, so I ignored it and implemented something really stupid instead.
gollark: Without the ID thing, though.
gollark: I mean, my networking thing is effectively a port of rednet, and thus really inefficient and bad, which is probably why it uses so much power?
gollark: Probably, but then I would have had to hook everything to skynet/SPUDNET or something.
gollark: Yes, I'm aware.
