>physical media will last forev--
>>732292229Nothing lasts forever>but what about diamon-NOTHING. LASTS. FOREVER.>what about the sta-ABSOLUTELY. NOTHING. LASTS. FOREVER.>what about da unive-Just shut the fuck up, man.
>>732292229There is no such thing as "physical media", that disc contains the same exact data when dumped.
I'd sell all of my old games if they were worth anything but its not worth the hassle as PS3 and 360 games are not worth anything. So I will just keep them all 300 or so of them in a big box in the attic.
>>732292229Avoid cleaning discs with a cleaning solvent and don't leave them lying in the sun, then they won't deteriorate. Just YFI, Jamal.
>>732292229Data degrades too as it gets copied in data centers.
>>732292229>treating your shit like garbage>acting surprised your garbage crumbles to shit.What a fucking genius you are.
I don't need my media to survive the heat death of the universe. It just needs to last for my lifespan.
>>732292229>top layer paper shit falls off>/v/ thinks this disc is destroyedthis really is a third world shitposting board isn't it
>>732293421This is only a concern if a piece of data only exists in one person's posession in one place.So, pretty much never
can we get a bot that just automatically bans you if you try to post the exact same threads on /v/ and /vr/ at the same time? I bet this thread is on /tv/ too but I'm not going to check.
>i'll just buy it off stea-*glomps your deepsea cable*
>>732293640>delete desktop icons from anon's pc>WAAAAH WHY DID YOU DELETE MY GAMES
>>732293675You realize that those pieces of data are just copies that are degraded from the original, right?
>>732293812good thinking, i'll post it there too
>>732293640>he doesn't know how cds work
>>732293640yeah uhthat's literally why that disc is fucked, dude
>>732293851What's stopping a terrorist group from destroying that cable?
>>732292229A DVD copy of Pirates of the Caribbean being eroded by time is a bit on the nose, no?
>>732294450because of the shark
>>732293285I purposefully wash my retro games with abrasive soap before selling them on ebay lol
>>732294450The Elite Cabals wouldn't allow it
>>732293285>YFIhaha ur stoopidlol
>>732293901>degradedThis isn't how digital data works anon.We're not talking about fucking phonograph cylinders or something
>>732294450They are extremely deep, are usually buried and their exact location are often kept secret.
>>732292229>play digital>collect physicalproblems?
>>732292229still good actuallythe data layer is in the middlea CD would be fucked though
>>732294628>They are extremely deepJust carry a few extra gas tanks.
>>732294628Just find it?
>>732292287isnt nothing a type of thing?
>>732294715It's the abscene of thing(s), so no
>>732294706The ocean isn't exactly small. Faggots can't even find missing planes that crash in the ocean, nevermind a buried cable that's just a foot wide.
>>732292229This happened to some of my Ps1 games and they were kept in their cases and inside a dry drawer.
>>732294450The fact that there are buttloads of them?I don't understand why people think there's literally only one transatlantic cable and that every internet and phone thing ever just uses the one.
>>732293640>>732294438CDs put the data on the bottom of the label, but DVDs and Blu Rays sandwich the reflective data in between two plastic layers.
>>732294715what part of "no thing" do you not understand?
>>732294805its just a word made up by some retard back in the good times
>>732295034>The fact that there are buttloads of them?In what way does that stop a terrorist from destroying that one though?
>>732295145Is zero a number?
>>732295119is that where the delamination comes from?
>>732294706>just find a piece of string buried underground in a gigantic flat plane shrouded in perpetual darkness because it's more than two miles underwater
>>732295145everythingno one has ever seen "nothing"in fact the concept is absurdthere is no nothing
>>732295198The fact that it would kind of be pointless for them to do so
>>732292287>Nothing lasts foreverGold does.>inb4 autistic ACKSHUALLY technicallity about how the universe will be gone one day
>>732292287>but what about diamon-I never questioned what happens to diamonds.I guess acid can dissolve them.Maybe extreme temperatures can burn them, but I doubt such temperatures can occur naturally.
>>732292287DUST IN THE WIND
>>732295292As pointless as bombing some supermarket yet that never stopped them.
>>732293851why'd he do it?
>>732295356That wasn't pointless for them
>>732295298Can radiation destroy gold?I guess otherwise you can alloy it with other metals to "get rid" of gold, but the atoms stay.
>>732295543Proton decay will eventually happen.
>>732295145At that point, we're questioning whether concepts "exist" or not. Do they need to be thought of to exist? If the concept of something definitely real (light, for example) does not require a conscious mind to think of it, does it exist? If it does, then every concept has always existed and will always exist. If not, then you could argue that the concept of concepts is ontologically flawed, since they are simply an extension of thought or perception, and merely a word, rather than a real thing.
>>732295537Neither would be destroying some cable, otherwise they wouldn't do it. Duh.
>>732294715I believe you will find the nothingness in your head. - Diogenes.
>>732295625>otherwise they wouldn't do it.But they don't, because it would be pointless. Duh.
>>732295571Nothing is indestructable but some things are darn hard to break.
>>732295686>But they don't, because it would be pointlessHow would you know? They may be preparing for it right now.
>>732292229Name 5 media that's worth preserving
>>732295748You can say "what if" about literally anything you want, it doesn't magically make it part of the conversation.

>>732295840>it doesn't magically make it part of the conversationYes it does, because I just made it part of the conversation.
>>732295840>what ifI never said such thing.No retort btw, you lost.Concession accepted.
>>732295985It's exactly what you didIf it actually happens we can talk about it, but until then it's not an argument because it's just something you made up

>>732298631Humans are an inferior species, needing a disc middleman to read data
>>732292404CDs and DVDs have shelf lives and eventually they will become unreadable, beyond even what error correction can acount forbut this is true of all storage media which is why data centers create replicas of everything and distribute it to different locations around the world
>>732299079Stop posting, pseud
>>732299079>Humans are an inferior speciesinferior to whom?
>>732299374A superior brain could just read disc data by itself

>>732298475Based russkies
>>732292229So far the only discs actively rotting on me are MGS Twin Snakes, and a single DVD of a movie box set (Revenge of the Nerds II). I'm not really stressing about the rest of the my collection after checking all of them.
>>732301508>MGS Twin Snakesdamn is it really that bad
>>732301139see>>732300715
>>732301647Disc 1 already has the paint wrinkling and I can see a few spots when I shine a flashlight through it. Disc 2 is mostly fine.
>>732292229>media will last forev--
>>732294628Just find the 2 points on each shore where the cable comes to the surface and draw a straight line. That's where the cable is. Then just pick any random point along that straight line.>>732295253>perpetual darknessDoesn't seem that dark in the video.

>>732292287If there is one thing that can last forever, even past the ability for anybody to actually read it, it's information. A properly backed up digital game is the longest lasting thing we can have but you want to put things on a shitty plastic disc and have it locked down instead.>b-b-b-but EntropyHeat death of the universe will necessarily lock the universe with (now unreadable) information locked within it, shut up.
>>732302520>Twin Snakes>Or any GC game for that matterNothing of value lost imo
>>732305879Why the GC hate?
@grok what conditions do you need to induce disc rot?
>>732306110>Why the GC hate?Why not? The only GC games I've ever enjoyed were ports of older games. It's a worthless console overall.
>>732292229I have tons of CDs and DVDs from the 90s and 00s and they're still perfectly fine.
>>732306423>The only GC games I've ever enjoyed were ports of older games.Oh ok, understandable, but I don't feel the same.
>>732292229Yes.
>>732306593>Oh ok, understandable, but I don't feel the same.Nothing wrong with that. Different conclusions drawn from different experiences.
>>732306593>>732306695Stop being rational and start arguing over the stupid shit like regular anons right now
>>732306650How?
>>732306752Chinesium polymers, heat, humidity, and time
>>732292229You own nothing, Time owns everything, even you.
>>732293421That's why there are multiple replicas of it including on highly durable storage media
>>732302520Gamecube discs are cheapen out, just like the Sega Saturn discs.>>732304830PS1, PS2 and PS3 are from top tier material and quality control.
>>732292229You niggers are so stupid. Looks like it was spinning and something heavy sat right on top and the disc art got ripped off by the console's cheese grater panel.
>>732302817shit bait
I game on console and buy physical games because I find it more fun :))And how other people game doesnt bother me~ o3o
Just take good care of your stuff, lads. It can last indefinitely
>>732308318I want to fuck your asshole
>>732308318I am shitting and pissing myself in rage.
>>732292229My original Duke Nukem 3D disc still works fine. Just take care of your stuff.
>>732308318I loved buying jp ps3 games because besides a large colour manual even in the normal release version there were also still goodies packed with it like postcards, maps and such. Sometimes you still got stuff like this with AA ps4 games but otherwise gaming degenerated so much in the last 15 years that I don't even bother anymore unless it's an indie game made with love like Signalis
