1 kilobyte = 1000 bytes
1 kibibyte = 1024 bytes
Fixed that for you.

Binary units made more sense in early computing days, because base addresses, sizes of chips, and so forth, had to be aligned to even binary numbers. Today stuff the user sees is abstracted enough that it doesn't really matter and it makes sense to use more human-friendly power-of-10 numbers.

>Anon discovers Base2 vs Base10
Yes. Ever wondered why we always count in 10s as humans? 10 isn't some magic number. It's just user for flesh brains. Computers don't like that shit so they use log base2.

So yes, to a computer a kilo is 1024.

>>108008467
computer can only think in the power of 2 that is binary
2 to the power of 10 is 1024
