WTB petabybe
Now I get it.
Damn it, Where is the nibble?
This is incomplete. It’s Missing
-Petabytes
-Exabytes
-Zettabyte
-Zottabyte
-Brontobyte
@ColombianMonkey: whoops did a little more research and here is the complete list for everyone
· 1 Bit = Binary Digit
· 8 Bits = 1 Byte
· 1024 Bytes = 1 Kilobyte
· 1024 Kilobytes = 1 Megabyte
· 1024 Megabytes = 1 Gigabyte
· 1024 Gigabytes = 1 Terabyte
· 1024 Terabytes = 1 Petabyte
· 1024 Petabytes = 1 Exabyte
· 1024 Exabytes = 1 Zettabyte
· 1024 Zettabytes = 1 Yottabyte
· 1024 Yottabytes = 1 Brontobyte
· 1024 Brontobytes = 1 Geopbyte
I get confused with the bit/byte difference…
@casemods:
8 bits to a byte. Not hard. Think of it in terms of food. Take 8 bits of food, it’s equal to a bite (depending on size of bits).
Why does everyone forget about a nibble!!!
4 Bits = 1 Nibble.
Or sometimes known as a nybble.
not to scale
Why is it that when I see this image all I can think of is someone using those as butt plugs?!
madhouses visites, thank you..
so not to scale..
@ColumbianMonkey
The terms have been renamed to account for facts of two vs. factors of 10.
kilobyte = 1000 bytes = 1KB
kibibyte = 1024 bytes = 1KiB
This came around after some people in the US started suing hard drive companies for not advertising their space properly.
@borandi: do you have an citation?
@multi_masked: Someone?
Missed this.
@ColombianMonkey: Who the fuck named the highest ones, the Marx Brothers?
