NoIWontPickAName,

Get rid of videos and we probably still could.

Wikipedia is ridiculously small

and it was more diverse, surprising, and engaging than what the have now.

I wonder when smartphones with a capacity of 40 zettabytes will officially come out. Then we can post this all over again.

possiblylinux127,

There is a time where the entire universe could of fit in the volume of your phone.

TheKMAP,

That’s just the intermediate value theorem.

If we define the size of the Internet as a continuous function, and it started at zero and currently doesn’t fit in your phone then yeah, no shit, at some point it fit in your phone.

If it’s truly continuous there was an exact point where it would exactly fill up your phone with no room left over.

There also was a time when the entirety of the human language would fit in this thread.

Zippy,

We have a great great great great … grandfather that was a single cell.

intensely_human,

Your ellipsis is too long. It’s like dot dot dot …. it just keeps going on and on and on

grunts dismissive mocking

trolololol,

Grunt grunt, grunt /s

Everythingispenguins,

grunts don’t make me turn this mammoth around

intensely_human,

grunts gotta go potty

AeroLemming,

There may be a time in the future when the entire internet as it is now could fit on whatever people have instead of cell phones in a few hundred years.

beebarfbadger,

Knocking on wood that we don’t nuke, fry or pollute ourselves out of the race until then.

Hobbes,

This is not a shower thought

beebarfbadger,

It literally was though.

Hobbes,

That’s not what this sub is for.

beebarfbadger,

Just to sum up: after telling me that this shower thought is not a shower thought, you say that the shower thoughts community is not the place for shower thoughts.

Did you forget where you are posting? Or do you maybe have a very … unique … definition of what comprises

“the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. […] thoughts that many people can relate to and […] find something funny or interesting in regular stuff”

as per the sidebar?

Hobbes,

It’s not for literally any thought that occurs during a shower.

beebarfbadger,

Right, it’s for

“the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. […] thoughts that many people can relate to and […] find something funny or interesting in regular stuff”.

MonkderZweite,

One single html page? I guess, yes.

bitwaba,

It’s one html page Michael. How big could it be? 10 gigabytes?

mindbleach,

And sometimes I’d like a copy of it, so I can browse that instead.

The internet or the world wide web?

Daxtron2,

Well both technically, but at different times

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@yiffit.net avatar

I’m not so sure a single phone could have handled the internet even in infancy. You’d need at least 2. :p

Daxtron2,

Run a VM in the phone that connects to the host over an OTG cable. Boom, internet

ripcord,
@ripcord@lemmy.world avatar

At least 2 phones? Could be 1 phone with a big SD card then…?

But how much stuff do you think was on the nascient www? There’s periods where it was literally a few dozen megabytes. Even when usenet was pretty active it wasn’t much space in the scheme of things, we had servers storing everything in some few gigabytes of storage.

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@yiffit.net avatar

It was a joke about needing to create a network, which requires at least 2 devices talking to each other.

ripcord,
@ripcord@lemmy.world avatar

But he was talking about storage

possiblylinux127,

The Mistral language model is 3.8gb and has a crazy amount of knowledge

AeroLemming,

It lies a lot

trolololol,

Then it will pass better on Turing test.

It’s a feature.

possiblylinux127,

I wouldn’t say a lot. Llama2 is way worse in my experience. Mistral gives fairly factual information.

Regardless, it is still wild that 3.8gb can go so far

Maalus,

No it wouldn’t since it wasn’t made at thr time.

beebarfbadger,

English not your first language? No worries, see the “would have”? That phrase signifies a hypothetical - I’ll leave you to ponder what hypothetical situation could be meant in this particular case, but spoiler: it involves comparing features of things that were constructed in different time frames.

Maalus,

No it doesn’t

Hobbes,

Why don’t you go figure out what a shower thought is before berating this guy.

beebarfbadger,

I’m not berating, I’m helping clear up some confusion about the conditionals.

lipilee,

freebread,

The power of the sun in the palm of my hand.

Kolli,

The unmatched power of the sun, even?

wahming,

The power of Sun Microsystems in the palm of my hand

Wait, what does that sound like?
