If you were to make a program that would create random combinations of pixels on a 1280x1024 monitor, approximately how long do you think it would take to create every image that will ever exist on a modern PC?
>>
1280x1024x255x255x255/(number of file writes a second)

>>55263208
how long do you think it would take before it pumped out an image of rms?
>>
Much longer than the lifetime of the universe, even for a much smaller image than that
>>
About 3000 centuries at 2 file writes a second

I think you mean 1280*1024 ^ 256*256*256

To put it in perspective, a 32 by 32 image with only 16 colors has 38,685,626,227,668,133,590,597,632 possible outcomes
