35,863,120 sesterces = (times by 2) 71,726,240 loafs of bread = (divide by 3) 23,908,746 USD

Isn't that right?

From the wiki link above:

... soldiers of the Rhine army who rose against Tiberius.... demanded to be paid a denarius a day, and they got it.[3]

One Sistertius is worth 1/4 of a Denarius, and 1/2 a Sisterius can buy a loaf of bread.

So 1 Denarius a day = 4 Sisterius = 8 loaves of bread a day

If we assume 3 USD is the price of a loaf of bread now, then these soldiers were being paid 24 dollars a day. Seems pretty low, but I guess bread was maybe more expensive back then?

Soldiers now make around 60 USD a day (random googling), so we're dealing with a factor of 3 error which doesn't seem so bad

Where did that 15 billion number come from?

Diocles' lifetime winnings, as recorded in Roman inscription CIL 6.10048, totalled 35,863,120 sesterces (HS) over a working life of 24 years. From this, he would have been paid an unknown sum by his management team, or his owners; his status as slave or free is not certain, nor is the likely amount of his total share.

Plugging that into this website: https://testamentpress.com/ancient-money-calculator.html, gives ~ 390 million USD
Reading this stack exchange post, gives ~ 60 million USD
Reading the wiki page on Sesterius "A loaf of bread cost roughly half a sestertius", where bread now costs about 3 USD, so that's ~ 215 million USD

Still a lot obviously, but where did that factor of 10-100 come from?

Conceptually I can understand that Termux cant take a photo or video from a camera device because it doesnt have access to the camera drivers that Android has....

...except that the Termux API does allow you to take a photo. So why is video off limits?
