its amazing how dense digital memory storage is

You could put the entirety of wikipedia on a microSD card and swallow it

@VoxSomniator huh, is wikipedia that small? is that including media files or just text?

@Felthry Text-only is a little less than a hundred gigabytes I think

@VoxSomniator pretty sure the largest microSD card on the market right now is 512GB so.... not sure you could fit all the text _and_ all the media in that

@VoxSomniator now this might be different if we're talking just one language, particularly if it's not English wikipedia

@Felthry Images and videos are like 10TB so you'd need a small bundle of cards, but still edible I think!

@VoxSomniator the really good kind is when the mix in button batteries though

@Felthry a classic stew of SD cards and batteries in mineral oil

@Felthry (definitely the kind of thing i could chow down on)
