Film

  • Sayantan Ghosal (director) announced that his next Byomkesh film will be based on this story.
gollark: Assuming that that allows me to do one chunk per 15 seconds (linear speedup), it'd only take 130 days of turtle runtime.
gollark: If I spent a lot of krist on lasers I could plausibly get 128 or so, enough to cover half a chunk at once.
gollark: It'd take a year at optimal speeds. Probably more in practice since a player would need to be there to manage them.
gollark: 32 GTech™ experimental laser drills could plausibly clear a chunk in a minute or so. There are (14000/16)² chunks. Oh no.
gollark: Self replicating turtles and/or lasers.
