>>107679942if you want me to treat kibibyte as a real word, it shouldnt sound like the deranged muttering of a braindead retard.
>>107679916When I buy a drive I'm buying 8TB not 8TiB.How can you be this retarded and cry about a non issue ?You paid for 8TB and got 8TB.No one cares if you actually wanted 8TiB.retard

>>107680090IEC niggerbytes aren't real words, no.But being a human, you should be able to understand context - "your mom likes watching BBC" has multiple meanings depending on such.If you can't, you have a mind that works more like a prey animal than a man, and I recommend rope.
>>107680128kilobyte used to refer to 1024 (2^10) bytes until fairly recently and now you have a bunch of onions redditors going "actually that's a kibibyte because so and so said so 10 years ago"I will never use 'kibibyte,' 1024 bytes = 1 kilobyte and that's that. These are computers, using 1000 is retarded.
