This just proves my point further. Let me break the timeline down for you:

1. Computers are good at the power of 2, so we start using the number 1024 (2^10), and call it a “Megabyte” because it’s “close enough”
2. Someone points out that this technically is fraud
3. Instead of rectifying this, people invent an entirely new, entirely arbitrary range of measurements that don’t follow the SI standard - the mibibyte family
4. Hardware manufacturers take advantage of this discrepancy to make their products look better
5. OS devs stick to their guns, presumably only to avoid an outlash of “where did my storage go” from users

TL;DR: The “mibibye” family of measurements are an abomination

Now I understand why the 100 IQ guy up there is crying.
Because even after you see the literal ‘i’ in between, you will still call them the same.

It’s as if you bought a metric ton of grain just to then complain that is doesn’t match an imperial tonne.
