I'm not even sure how many chickens I can fit on my current hard drive, but it's probably more than the number of persons I can fit.
Yeah, you definitely don't want to get one that only holds 1 chicken. The extra money is worth it to hold 1 chickens.
Automation has truly ruined online shopping. These days you can order from a respectable brandname on a big company website and find out later the seller is actually nanchangshishengyuedianzishangwuyouxiangongsi and they sent you a completely different product than advertised.
I remember back in 2013 I built a PC for my wife, and in 2014 one for myself. At that point, buying something online still felt a bit odd. It was reserved for specialty items, shipping would often take at least 2 weeks, or even 6 weeks depending on where it was coming from. I was no stranger to purchasing online, but brick-and-mortar stores with real stock still existed and could get me what I purchased much more quickly.
I remember being so impressed with Newegg's website. It made it so easy to build a computer and make sure everything was compatible. It was really easy to compare different options. The filter system was intuitive and comprehensive. I remember thinking "wow this is a perfect shopping experience. The future has arrived".
I went to build my next PC in 2019, and dear Satan was it so much worse. I had heard about Newegg getting bought out by a larger company in 2016, and it showed. They opened it up to 3rd party sellers. The filters got clogged with garbage and don't seem to work properly anymore. The sort function became a joke. The UI got rearranged to be less intuitive. I think they purposefylly wanted to make a worse shopping experience to make people frustrated, to get them to give up on looking for deals and pay a bit extra just to be done with it. I ended up having to go to a 3rd party website (PCPartPicker) to figure out what I needed and where to get it. And some of those parts I had to order on eBay (some even from Newegg's eBay account which is just.... Why are we doing this?), some on Amazon or Best Buy. And it's only gotten worse since.
This same experience has happened everywhere. Just this morning my wife was checking out Culture Hustle to see if they have any interesting new paints and commented on how much worse the website was now than when we last used it a few years ago.
This may make me sound like an old curmudgeon yelling at clouds, but I think the Internet peaked a while ago. There are arguments over exactly when, but sometime between 2008-2016. I remember in 2012 in talking to my fellow students about how Google search results were getting worse.
It's weird how Amazon kind of pushed every online store into becoming eBay (without the bidding... Do people still use eBay for auctions?)
Just today I was trying to look for something at homedepot and not only were the filters exactly like that, but they were also additive. So if I selected both "1 chicken" and "1 chickens" to cover both spellings, it would say 0 results because no product matches both at the same time.
That's multiplicative, no? Conjunctive rather than disjunctive.
It sounds like it's set up as an AND search, rather than the OR that any normal person would expect here.
"Hm... 1 chicken or 1 chickens... 🤔"
Hold up. There are six 1 chickens? I gotta see what a 1 chickens capacity drive looks like.
1 Chicken is measured by the cut size. The smallest currently is measured in bites. Here is a 3lb partition...
Do they come in terabites?
Personally, I measure capacity in Tera-dactyls.
Since dactyl mean finger, which can also be translated as a digit, it kinda works. 🤔
Nice.
I would filter by 1 chicken just to see what comes up
Probably 1 chicken
1 chickens, please!
Do you have enough hard drive for it?
Sadly, yes.
I'm gonna upgrade to the 0 TB hard drive pretty soon so everything stops using up so much storage
Sigh. How many times do I have to keep telling people.. 0TB ≠ 0 TiB. One is a marketing gimmick that makes it look like you're getting more capacity than is actually available. You think you're getting 0TB when you're actually only getting 0TiB.
I absolutely despise how online retailers have always allowed sellers to use the most nonsensical classifications for certain item categories, to the point most categories' filters are fucking useless
"User experience? Lol fuck that, browse endlessly you fucking peon!"
One chicken is equal to 1,024 Bacockobytes of data (more commonly known as simply a 'bacock')
Try a different store, they probably have a 1 PetaPerson drive.
A PetaPerson would hold 0 chickens.
Chickens are a bad file system to use anyway, they can get plucked too easily and fail.
Which language has a word/abbreviation that can translate as either chicken or something to do with data storage?
I don't understand your question. You don't use chickens as a measurement of file size?
Next you'll tell me you don't describe a gigachicken as a person!
edit: I would be remiss if I didn't mention Egg, Inc.
There's a huge difference between chicken^4 vs chickens^4. Approximately (✓chick/4)π
What the cluck
im getting the new WD Black 1 chicken drive. the RD/RW speeds blow SSD's out of the water.
From personal experience, you will only be able to fit one chicken into your network, but you will end up with at least two, possibly more.
If you refuse to buy said chickens, one or more will arrive on their own
So, you might as well just default to three and hope that's the end of it.
The good news is that chickens very much enjoy the warmth of a humming PC, and will gladly lay eggs there.
That last part is not a joke.
Yo, give me the hard drive that fits another bard drive. I'll load a hard drive onto the hard drive in my hard drive so I can load a hard drive on it.
