TSR's weekly news quiz #8

8/10

Another week, another embarrassing score of 5/10. Good to see geology in the news though!

4/10 - I should probably listen to the news more 😂

7/10 here, considering I was sleeping for most of the week and at the airport for a quarter of it, thats not too bad....

7/10 To be fair, though, a couple of those were guesses

Somehow I managed to get 5/10

5/10 isn't that bad Someone in the office got 2/10 so don't worry

Yeah that fossil one was a bit of a pain, I had to look up the other fossils and I just couldn't find one that was very old like the real answer!

3/10

Oblivious as always...

Haha better luck next time To be fair to you, I have to put a lot of research into the quizzes because I have no idea about half of it! It gives me a great chance to catch up with the news

Thanks next time I aim for a 2/10. I'm gonna have low expectations so I don't get disappointed. Lol I guess quizzes have other uses besides identifying whether you live under a rock.

Next time I'll be ready

Another week, another 7/10.

9/10!

I have to admit I guessed a couple but who cares?

The Blue Ray question is wrong.

1.9Gbps means it would take just over 4s to download one GiB, now even just a single layer Blu Ray is 25GB, so it would take about 100s, or 1m40s

But 25GB isn't the standard, the standard is 50GB, or about 3m 30s

next week will be my week

5/10.

6/10 not bad seen as i only glance at the headlines quickly before leaving the house
