A bunch of high school robots are sitting in class when the AV cart with the old CRT and VCR is rolled in.

It's time for an educational short film (produced in Microsoft 3D Movie Maker) from D. A. R. E., about the dangers of magnets.

"T0M-B1T was a regular guy with a lovely wife and 2.4 kids (one was still under construction), until one day he tried a magnet at a party. He goes to work the next day, but his job-disk has read errors, and his employment is terminated. He tries to go home to his wife and kids, but oh no! His map database is corrupt, and now he doesn't know where he lives! Now he's homeless, begging for batteries on the street. Don't be like T0M-B1T: don't do magnetism"

The final scene is a spinning 3d text object reading "magnets: not even once" while midi music plays.

I was shopping at Ikea with some friends and I asked if I could buy a baby (which were on sale at Ikea) and no one said no so I just put it in the cart. After paying, it started to dawn on me the responsibility of having a child so I decided to put it in a recycling bin at a pharmacy as per my friend's suggestion, which is a thing you were allowed to do if you regretted buying a baby.

heres my advice to any followers i have who are young. Don't delete things when you think you've outgrown them or they're cringy. If you make youtube videos just private them don't delete them. Save your files, you can bury them in multiple sub-folders if you think they're cringe now but DON'T DELETE THEM! It doesn't feel like it now but years in the future you will look back fondly at who you were and wish you still had those things.

The image is the article headline of this PC Gamer article:

Article Date: February 23, 2024.

Article excerpt:

Essentially, the process involves stacking hundreds of data-recording layers a mere one micrometer apart, all while keeping the overall thickness of the disc the same as a traditional DVD or Blu-ray.
This much denser physical storage format makes use of 100 layers, which is said to result in a maximum data capacity of 1.6 petabits, or roughly 200 terabytes of storage. That's a gigantic leap over even the most advanced quad-layer Blu-ray disks, that currently top out at around 128 GB of data.
It should come as no surprise that this solution is primarily being developed for enterprise storage. The researchers hope to reduce the space needed for a high-capacity data centre down from a gigantic facility to a single room by switching over to an optical storage solution, which would not only make the centres themselves cheaper to build but also cut down on the associated heat and energy issues that data facilities can currently struggle with.

So it's for making data centers more practical, without overusing space and energy so much!

The article also mentions that the Big Disks, can potentially last 50 to 100 years, vs Hard Drives generally lasting 10 years. So it could be more sustainable and less wasteful.

Consumer-grade Big Disks could be possible once it is more developed, but there would have to be an affordable advanced disk reader made compatible with them since the data is so densely packed.

-

In the meanwhile, there's a whole world out there...

of physical media with existing CDs and Hard Drives;

ripping / re-encoding / burning on physical media with apps like "HandBrake" and "DVDstyler";

and backing them up. Along with other physical media lovers, non-drm enthusiasts, and digital hoarders.

As is your right to.

I've asked this question before and been surprised by the results, now I have access to more weirdos it's your problem:

It is the middle of a Sunday afternoon. You have nothing on, and aren't expecting visitors, deliveries or post.

Unexpectedly, there is a knock at the door.

Not naming options to skew votes but...

I think there's something fundamentally baffling with the way most of you think.

#we were wrong about fairies being real but given that they are #nothing else about one being on my doorstep is surprising

#because I don't know anything about fairies. anything a fairy does would make sense because what do I know? might as well happen

#vs #how did a walrus travel 80+ miles inland?

#how did it travel 80 miles through an urban area of 3mil people without anyone noticing?

#how did it make it to the 3rd floor?

#how did it knock?

#why was there a walrus visiting a shore that hasn't seen walrus in 5mil years?

#does alaska know it's wildlife if making house calls 1000s of miles away?

#was it a zoo escape? HOW?? they are slow and cannot scale or jump fences. does the zoo know?

#why of all the doorsteps it could've chosen on its way did it choose mine?

#how did it knock

HOW DID IT KNOCK??
