That doesn't look like lost time to me. In the last two years I've gained 2.6 years of life.

I assumed that nobody spends more than 10 hours a day on the computer.
Looks like I was wrong, huh?

Everyone failed to notice the key point in >>2, someone should alert the webmaster about his faulty calculations!

That's 4.734 years of pure fun :D

var years = custRound(finalhrs / 3650, 3); // 10 hours rather than 24, because of sleep

It seems that the author expects us to sleep 14 hours a day.

Sounds good to me!

It seems that everyone here has wasted 2.5-4 years.

I wonder if any USENET people will drop by.

Wtf, that calculation >>9 discovered makes no sense in any situation.
If this thing is to calculate the lost time in our lives, it can't make modifiactions to our "living time" in the first place!
Bad author!

Write your own script, then.
I am confident that a working day is 10 hours.

>>15
And I am confident that you missed the point. The point of this calculator is presumably to see how much of your life total you have wasted, not just time at work.

Maybe in FRANCE, but alas not here in the USA.

Wouldn't you like to live in France?

I'd rather spend 5 years online than working 5 years in a job for minimum wage.

Good thing I don't need a car. Woot for city with good bike and bus transportation. Woot woot for living close to work and college.

Numbers are probably way off though... I only I class 3 days a week, so I should have 4 "weekends."

Also, I spend a lot of time doing homework on my computer since I have a few online classes, and there were a couple of months I was without connection.
