> My Factorio play time is up to 6,573.2 hours at this point.

I habitually translate "X thousands of hours" into "full time employment years".

You've been playing Factorio as the equivalent of a full time job, for 3 years and 3 months.

[Edit: Many of those hours were probably background farming, so not a direct comparison.]

I read about a half hour every day. That means I probably clocked some 6 thousand hours in my lifetime. Imagine all the time I could’ve invested in playing the rat race more, in those wasted 3 years of books :(

I am absolutely not suggesting that "full-time employment years" are better allocated to work/job/employment.

Just modeling what we (US, 40hrs/wk and 50wks/yr) consider a "full-time" commitment to any task/activity.
