REQUEST How long would it take to smoke a cigarette that's 9 miles long?
In John Prine's song, "When I Get to Heaven" he says when he gets to heaven, "I'm gonna smoke a cigarette that's nine miles long". Assuming one normal filter on it, how long would it take to smoke? How much tobacco would be in it?
Bonus if you are feeling Extra Mathy:
He also says. "I'm gonna get a cocktail -vodka and ginger ale."
Assuming he consumes one normal cocktail for each normal cigarette length, how many cocktails would he consume? Or, how much vodka/ginger ale would be in one giant cocktail?

Request Aternative Blackjack
So I play a game that doesn’t officially support it, but is essentially player run blackjack using a built in random number generator which of course can’t be completely random but close enough. This involves the dealer rolling between (1-13) for every card (in chat, you are able to type in ‘\\random 13’ and it rolls a random number between 1-13). 1=ace, 10-13=face cards. Rules are exactly the same as casino blackjack. Dealer randoms their shown card, then randoms out one by one everyone else’s card face up. Only after all players hit/stand/double down does the dealer random for the next card. Limits are tight: 50k to 500k. Is there an edge here in either side, how different is it from real blackjack?
Edit: Having a base knowledge of casino run blackjack, I’d like to understand statistically how this would differ from a house edge perspective.

Request How many generations could 4 females and 8 males of an eternally young species produce without inbreeding problem?
For context, I am a writer, and in my story, the main characters are the species who remain eternally young and fertile for centuries. Otherwise they grow up at the same rate Humans do, and the females of this species are only able to get pregnant a few weeks out of the year, the rest of the time, the reproductive parts of their reproductive organs are turned off. This is to solve the problem of females running out of eggs by age 60 or 70 when they can live to roughly 700 without technology.
And when a fight is about to happen, the leader says something along the lines of "If that device is destroyed (gene editing machine) then we'll only be able to birth INSERT NUMBER generations without inbreeding!"
So, important stuff. 12 individuals, 4 females, 8 males, they are the last of their kind and cannot reproduce with anyone else and none of them are related to each other. They have eternal youth and menopause/age isn't a factor, how many generations would they be able to produce without inbreeding, or would they be able to beat the inbreeding problem entirely?
