It's still a disk inside
No, seriously.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-eWDuEo-3Q
I can't find it now fuck
Tape degrades slower and is more space efficient.
(atleast relative to HDDs)
No, no
It wasn't 1tb sorry
That's cool. But it sounds kinda experimental still.
Doesn't ever imply it'll become a mass technology.
Yeah. It's still experimental
But imagine the consequences
I dont think the consequences would be that impressive to be honest
This is a bit of guesswork, but it seems like the read/write would be quite shit
In terms of speed
Which limits the application to long term storage
Which is great
But not what affects most of us in daily life
I think the idea was as this relates to history.
Another thing that I'm looking forward to is neuralink
I don't think it's that world-changing either. If only because there's already approaches to the almost the same outcome.
Incremental change as oppsed to revolutionary.
Neuralink sounds like the future of the human race
But maybe I'm too optimistic
Honestly having something implanted into my head that can interface with a computer makes me really uncomfortable
/Really/ uncomfortable
I'm not so bothered by the idea of interfacing with a neural interface.
I'm more bothered by what it could imply other people could do or what technologies needed to make it happen might enable.
Give me read access and I can gain write access.
It's more the physical implanting into my head
And that's terrifying IMO
that makes me uncomfortable
then interfacing with anything
Yea that's the thing. On one hand it means incredible progress
On the other hand it means a person with enough power can control you
It doesn't even have to be direct control. It's more like foolproof manipulation.
Yea, it's still control
Yeah. That scares me to no end. But there's probably no stopping it. And it's coming.
The core technologies appear to already be here. It's the science more than anything at this point.
Would you guys say yes to the memory devices in black mirror?
