Title: Human Bandwidth
Post by: Archangel on February 07, 2009, 09:15:34 am

A sperm contains 750 MB of genetic information. In a milliliter, we have 100 million sperm. On average, one ejaculation releases 2.25 ml in 5 seconds.

Using basic math we can compute the bandwidth of the human male ejaculation as:
(750MB x 100M x 2.25)/5 = (6,291,456,000 bytes/sperm x 100,000,000 sperm/ml x 2.25 ml) / 5 seconds = 283,115,520,000,000,000 bytes/sec = 31 TeraBytes/sec

Your calculation is wrong given the fact that you cant keep it up past the 5 seconds. So, its at most about 1/1200 of the rate.

Also how do you get from "750MB" per sperm to "6,291,456,000 bytes/sperm"?

Who gives a fuck?  He's brought an important fact to light, and squabbling about the numbers is of lesser importance right now.  What IS important is the fact that those bastards at the sperm bank down the street are looking for donations of what we now know is a fuckton of genetic information.  They call themselves a medical institution, then go looking for handouts.  Disgraceful.

If they want to impregnate some barren bitch to make Kaine Jr. they are going to have to cough up some cash.  Seriously.  Like I'd unleash the Antichrist on the world for free... pshaw.  :-\

What Archangel is trying to say is, stick your dick in your ethernet port and fuck in like an animal. It'll make your internet go faster.

I don't know where your "Jerk-off Junction" is at, but mine is a rip-off.

Good sum my ass.

Sperm≈a CD?

Its a little over.

And Arthur C. Clarke estimated that the human brain took about one petabyte of storage. See either 2061 or 3001, cant remember which. The one with the space elevators and Pohl.
