Video of ceramic storage system prototype surfaces online — 10,000TB cartridges bombarded with laser rays could become mainstream by 2030, making slow hard drives and tapes obsolete::Ceramics-based storage medium consumes very little energy and lasts more than 5,000 years, creators say
I know it was said before in previous decades as storage evolved, but: How the fuck, do you eve fill these up?
That’s only 10 Petabytes per cartridge. The Internet Archive is currently sitting at 212 Petabytes.
Just wait. Triple AAA devs will find a way to make their code even less optimal so that way the latest call of duty or NBA games will be 5tb in size while also receiving 5tb updates every other day to fix bugs and add paywalled content and gambli- I mean loot boxes.
Call of Duty updates
I like to think of them as IPv6 addresses. You just don’t.
Porn
We’ll find a way, trust me. Its just an exuse for ever more detailed data.
Why would they be harder to fill up in the evening? /s
