What's the future of glass data storage? I always thought this was cool, i could store a bunch of shitposts on it then bury it in the ground for someone to discover 10,000 years later.

it will probably replace the magnetic tape archives. i don't see it being fast enough to be used for hot storage

>>106133836 (OP)
and how exactly will they decode it?

>>106133836 (OP)
a curiosity

very cool vapourware. glass is a shit medium. too expensive, too fragile, any impurities or micro fractures will fuck it completely over time.

won't last that long.

Glass is liquid, it will slowly melt. Give it like 40 years and you can already see deformation with naked eye.
