It's not

they want you to use the cloud

The fuck are you talking about? In 2010 if someone pulled out a 256gb micro SD card or a 4 tb hard drive I would have thought they were an alien.

This image literally makes me stress the fuck out. I imagine being in a similar situation, unable to move my body in any direction, can't breathe, can't even kill myself to make it end.

Jesus fucking christ. Why would anyone do this shit.

I fucking know. I could see if at the end of that there was some hidden treasure worth millions or something but all that just to see more dark damp cave that's full of spiders is fucking insane.

the story behind the image is just as creepy google Ted the Caver, its a decent read.

looks shooped if that makes you feel better

Why are SSDs 480GB, 960GB etc when hard drives are 500GB, 1TB etc?

Just 100 years ago we didn't have any of that crap.

Oh for fucks sake go back to the world where giant magneto resistance did not exist... Things used to be much worse... Novell Electromagnetic hacks only come around once every generation... And if you are talking about non volatile silicon storage (((who))) the fuck knows ... My first iPod touch was 16gb !!! The yields on that storage are shit and we are running into atoms.

Bout time for the lmaos to drop some true 3D holographic nano photonic shit

I can't wait to have my whole 24/194 and DSD flac catalogue on my iPhone streaming through Bluetooth earbuds... J/K

THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO STORE!

Been obvious to me

The future is a subscription service for everything... Even the air you breathe

user that 7years ago

The next gen laptops/ tablets won't even have storage on them, the storage will be in the cloud(just like some chromebooks) so you'll need internet for everything and if you're bad, your account gets shut down .

What is the fucking link ?

I will, to your mom when I'm deep in that dino snatch.

But it's not.

It is advancing! SSD's have become commonplace in computers and are quickly catching up with harddisks in terms of cost to capacity ratios

It's not. It's real.

That's 6 and a half years ago, user-kun. And that's still considered slow even in 2010.

The problem is tech is advancing more in power faster than efficiency. Some people use gaming consoles to stream shows. What a waste of fucking energy.

He heard Alex Jones ramble about it and thinks that's how it works

we already found ways to backup data into crystals literally the stargate sg1 way

and we are stuck on fucking nand modules

yeah we are so advancing

You must be young. The first hard drive to break 1GB was introduced in 1980 was the size of a fridge and weighed 250kg. I'd say we've seen some kind of awesome improvements in both weight, size and storage capacity.

tfw tb SD cards were already a known thing in 2010 (and being produced, not that any of us cheap consumers would know about it though, as they're still milking us)

>4tb HDD
... you serious?

wow, you weren't even alive 100 years ago!

>wriggled headfirst into a narrow, unmapped tunnel
totally asking for it.

So how did they take that photo if he was stuck headfirst?

It's the jews

How did he even get stuck?

That's not the guy stuck in nutty putty cave. It's from a spooky internet cave exploring site. Google Ted the Caver.

Are you kidding? Consoles wouldn't use much power at all to stream video.

They use power just to stay on and spin the hard disk cooling fan etc.

You really lack imagination.
That was like what, 3 - 4 doublings of memory?

I think phones can have that much storage now.

Yeah, but phones are throwaway garbage consumer tech.

They likely use less than a typical light bulb.

compared to other tech its pathetic though, we ought to have 16 Tb hdds as the standard now, meanwhile in the span of 7 years gpus went from 512 mb to 16 gb of vram and the amount of cores went from 2 to 8 (with 16 threads too)

You mean 2tb SSD and 10tb HDD

I do like how a 300gb harddrive goes for $20 nowadays. I know a $50 1TB is "the better deal," but if you want to buy spare harddrives for a rainy day incase your harddrive/ssd spontaneously dies or if you ever wanted to have a RAID setup, there has never been a cheaper time.

Consoles have always been notorious for having shit power efficieny.

it isn't? a solid state drive with a usb port was the same price 7 years ago but had 1/64 the storage capacity.

A 500 GB drive was the same price as it is today in 2010, but the technology is much faster and now has no moving parts.

Old hard drives are dirt cheap.

New clock speeds on ram come out pretty regularly.

Cloud computing
