mass of Earth is 6×10^27 kg
mass of the Milky Way is 6x10^42 kg
mass of the visible Universe is 1.5×10^53 kg
Quality deck of cards weighs 0.3 kg. All deck combinations would weigh 2.4×10^67 kg.
= 10^14 times the mass of the visible Universe.
You need many multiverses to store all those cards.

- lkuty 2y agoReminds of "Could you fold a sheet of paper on itself 64 times?". "No problem! It's easy". Until you try or think about powers of 2 and calculate the height of the thickness of the sheet multiplied by 2^64. 64 might by replaced by 32 to make it seem more approcheable. That's funny how counter-intuitive it might be.

I remember as a kid being told that it was impossible to fold a piece of paper in half 8 times and most of the time, that's true unless you use a very long and thin bit of paper.
- altruios 2y agoThat would be a serious magic trick, as that's the explanation given to the rubes. Some sort of auto-shuffling machine with some computer vision to match the shuffling in real time... still a magic trick, a different kind of impressive. But that guy who makes robots at home and does videos would love a project like this. I seriously doubt it would work.
