There's the cutest little digital preservation of art thread going on the last two days and I'm sending my love to everyone stumbling around down there. pic.twitter.com/9lULXYlDeK

In the morning I didn't understand the difference between Postgres tablespaces and clusters, but now @alvar_f explained it all to me!

Thanks for your valuable feedback. My updated suggestion would be to base this system on ASCII characters which are encoded in 7 bits, plus the A stands for American. What do you think?

Can't wait for hard disk vendors, cell service providers, and Amazon Web Services switching over to these more natural units.

The next bigger unit, the Hiclibyte, should be based on the size of all emails on Hillary Clinton's home email server.

It is however commonly accepted that only line feeds consciously created by the president via hitting "Enter" should be counted, and line feeds that might have been caused by automatic wrapping in the email client before sending the email should be ignored.

There is still some historical dispute if Clinton used a Windows computer to send the email, that would result in 2 bytes per line feed character, overall 8 more bytes. So a Cliwibyte is 396 bytes.

Translating in between ClB and KiB is really easy, just multiply by 2.6392! If the mathematical operation would result in fractions of bytes or even bits, the result should be rounded up to the next byte, because bigger is better.

There should be a new unit, the clibyte, based on the number of characters in the text body of the first presidential email, sent by Bill Clinton to Carl Bildt in 1994. That was 388 bytes, including whitespace.

Going in between Europe and the US a lot I am still confused by imperial units, but at the same time disappointed that there is no imperial unit for data. The US uses kilobytes and kibibytes like everyone else in the world. Why?? Here's a proposal: ⬇️

Hey Matt if you are interested in using a structured emulation framework do show this type of art in the future, get in touch.

When was the last time you connected your computer with the net using an ethernet cable?
