 They won't be able to count for a few years, but when the time comes, they'll be able to practice by using their unusual birthdays.

At least four babies were born Saturday at 10:11 a.m. across the United States. If you follow the American style of writing dates, that means they arrived at 10:11 on 12/13/14.

Parents David and Katherine Jones did not realize they'd hit that sequence of numbers until a nurse excitedly pointed it out, said Kimberly Romo, a spokeswoman for Tucson Medical Center in Arizona.

The couple had other things on their mind -- Victoria Marie Jones was not due until December 31. Instead, she came early via C-section.

"The doctors just said it had to be like right now, and none of us realized what time it was," David Jones told CNN. "One of the nurses in there is the one that actually caught it. All of this happened so fast."

or CST or MST or AKST or HST?

 

We've got tons of time zones :D 

 

 

Hardly tons in the USA which is where they counted the babies from! I think the six mentioned are all of them already!

 

A buddy of mine texted me, out of the blue, with the message, 12 13 14, typed just like that and wondered why I didn't know what the heck he was talking about!

The same number would be far more interesting than this. Something like 2:22:22 on 2/2/2222, for example.

 

Too bad Numerology stuff isn't actually real. Or maybe it's a good thing Numerology isn't real. /shrug

Ha, we are just bits of meat, living on a ball of rock, orbiting a ball of fire, orbiting a bigger ball of fire, moving rapidly away from a epicenter of a big explosion.

Our arbitrary numbers regarding time are meaningless.

I am a Magical being, adopting a physical body for a while. :happy:

their date is illogical anyway.

 

it goes smallest, second small, high, middle, highest number.

 

counting like that only make logical sense when each number is sequentially higher than the next. placing day after month does't work then. besides being ass backwards to begin with :p

 

but then we're talking about a nation where you need a calculator to know how how many inches 12 feet is. whereas, we always know that 12 meters is 1200 cm :)

    • This Samsung T7 external SSD deal lasts less than a day by Sayan Sen Recently we had covered some nice deals of internal NVMe SSDs which include the 4TB TeamGroup G50 for only $400, the WD_BLACK SN7100 2TB for just $243, as well as the Samsung 990 PRO 1TB for $370. If however you require an external SSD for portability and quick data transfers and have a budget of less than $200 the Samsung T7 1TB model is currently on a limited time deal at just $190, it's lowest price in nearly three months. The deal ends today so you better hurry if you need one (purchase link below). The T7 weighs in at just 72 grams meaning it should be fairly easy to carry around helping in the portability department. Via its USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface the T7 promises sequential read speeds of up to 1050 MB/s and writes of 1000 MB/s. It is also fairly robust with a drop protection of up to 2 meters, though bear in mind that this is not waterproof. For that you will have to choose the rugged T7 Shield. The technical specifications of the Samsung T7 1TB are given in the table below: Specification Value Model Code (1TB) MU-PC1T0T / MU-PC1T0H Interface USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) Dimensions (W × H × D) 85 × 57 × 8 mm Weight 72 g Sequential Read Speed Up to 1,050 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 1,000 MB/s Drop Resistance Up to 2 m (6.6 ft) Encryption AES 256-bit hardware encryption Operating Temperature 0°C to 60°C Non-Operating Temperature -40°C to 85°C Humidity 5% to 95% (non-condensing) Shock Resistance 1,500 G, duration 0.5 ms, 3-axis (non-operating) Vibration Resistance 20–2,000 Hz, 20 G (non-operating) Get it at the link below: Samsung T7 Portable SSD, 1TB External Solid State Drive, MU-PC1T0T/AM, Gray: $189.98 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I just wish they would put more love into Virtual Desktops. There is just so much more they could do.
    • Sounds like you just skimmed over the review, I answer all those questions in it. Although I admit I did not test if DTS works over the headphones, when I get some time I will test this. My personal use case is more speaker-driven (I cover this in the review too).
    • It actually does the same exact thing as yours, 7.1 virtual surround over headphones. From the product page: "Experience sound that surrounds you with 7.1 virtual surround, delivering a wider, more immersive soundstage for movies, games, and music." So both of them are two channel, with 7.1 virtual surround that only work in Headphones mode.
