Hi /g/.

I was thinking today while downloading some stuff. How much does a byte weigh? Is it possible to convert my mass to gigabytes? I am 5'11" and weigh 180lbs.

How do you even do that? Do you weigh the electrons that are transferred to give the signal to change ones into zeroes?

I'm not sure. I thought someone here might know?

Depends on the method in which it is getting stored, and from there what would constitute the data itself.

IIRC a couple years ago, someone did the math on it. If all of the data on the internet was converted to pure electrical pulses, extracted to nothing but electrons, and compacted together, the contents of the internet would have the approximate size and mass of your average strawberry.

Considering how explosively the internet and data has grown in the last couple of years, all global data processed in a similar manner would mass approximately the same as an apple.

You can just weight your hdd before and after you downloading your files.

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
