4 TiB microSD card weighs 0.25g ⚖️. This means 16 TiB/gram. 400+ TiB of images/videos in Wikimedia Commons would weigh 25g. 217 PiB of complete archive.org is about 14 kg in microSD cards

"In high-income countries, brand baby foods have no added sugars them, in line with recommendations from major health organizations around the world and consumer pressure. But in low- and middle-income countries, Nestlé adds sugar to those same baby products, sometimes at high levels, which could lead children to prefer sugary diets and unhealthy eating habits" https://arstechnica.com/science/2024/04/nestle-baby-foods-loaded-with-unhealthy-sugars-but-only-in-poorer-countries/

Talking about web bloat. for a few days now exposes a simple "Hello World!!" page (https://www.netflix.com/helloworld), no styling, black on white. Probably some forgotten testing leftovers. Whatever.
That page alone downloads 731 KiB of resources, of which 529 KiB is alone. Of which, 440 KiB is a cookie consent JS...

I was today years old to learn that this :

<div />
outside

actually puts the word "outside"... inside <div>. Because trailing slash is ignored and <div/> becomes <div>

Just finished reading Animal Farm for the first time in my life. It was good, I guess, but almost exhausting in its lack of subtlety for metaphor and allegory. I suppose that's why you read it and learn about it in high school.

Should I watch the old movies of it? Gollum directing one for next year, too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_Farm_(upcoming_film)

1984 is next! Never read nor seen.

@jw 1984 is much better and it inspired a ton of sci-fi (and Chinese government). Also check out the movie "Brazil" by Terry Gilliam. It's loosely based on 1984 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088846/
