Factually wrong. They are (unfortunately) called 1KiB, 1MiB, and 1GiB.
As a base-2 enjoyer myself, I always use only these units, and never the inferior KB, MB, GB. But you need to at least use the right fucking names for the units. Even we binary-chads who actually advocate for the base-2 units don't try to pretend like there's no naming difference.

>naming difference
KB is short for kilobyte which is 1024 bytes
i do not acknowledge any other system
Christopher Gonzalez
Kibi, Mebi, and Gibi sound retarded
it should be Kilo for 2^10, Mega for 2^20, Giga for 2^30, and so on
Evan Diaz
Nice trips but wrong
Kilobytes (1000 bytes) are a useless trash garbage unit invented to appeal to normies
The superior kibibyte (KiB) is indeed 1024 bytes

Nu-Any Forums everyone. I bet you call a minute microwave time you filthy amerimutt.
Grayson Sanchez
Yeah, I agree, but too fucking bad, ship's sailed.
Moles sound retarded, imagine trying to measure an amount of substance in terms of mammals. But we do it anyway because that's what it's called, that's how it is.
Get used to it, it's not gonna change

Why can't people here be more understanding amd make people feel invited?
Why such nastiness?

de facto "Kilobyte"/ kB / KB is still 1024 (2^10) bytes
no one calls it Kibi, and no one uses base10 when dealing with computers
Levi Howard
easy for you to say as an american, in most of the world we already use these prefixes for many other things, it's much more confusing to say "kilo means 1000, except for computing where it's 1024 for some reason"
Jackson Ward
wish that were true
it's not

Why is she so sad?

where do you think you are retard? no one here does anything for their lame account and upcummies. it's all about the (You)s and lulz. no one cares after a thread gets archived, and the slate is wiped clean. and tripfags get treated worse than redditors because they misunderstand the point of a tripcode.
