Career

He rode for the Danish professional cycling team, home–Jack & Jones, which he joined in 1998.

gollark: Still, I would expect that for non-time-critical stuff people wouldn't mind waiting for a few years if they could run their computing tasks on an entire moon comparatively cheaply.

gollark: I guess one might be network connectivity, since your moonbrain being several light-years from a stargate would make it not very useful for real-time stuff.

gollark: It seems like - since there's not any mention of the eldraeverse having moonbrains everywhere - there's some reason you can't just cheaply stick some self-replicating machinery on a planet and come back in a hundred years and... do moonbrain things.

gollark: Giant fractal things are a nice decoration for *any* planet, really.

gollark: Especially since the magic phased array thing will probably dump lots of heat for all the computing and... phased-arraying, I have no idea how an optical one would actually work internally.
