What games would you download with a 1.02 petabits per second Internet?
>>715066657 (OP)A game about banging your mom. But I'd need file space to match and we're not quite there yet.
stop making threads about every image you think is amusing even though it has nothing to do with video games and then coming up with a post that has the word games in it that you dont actually give a fuck about you just wanted to post your retarded picture because you are 14 and think its funny
>>715066657 (OP)what's the point of internet that fast
do we even have drives capable of writing data at similar speeds?
>>715066657 (OP)Even if you've got 1.02 petabits downspeed, I don't think Netflix has 1.02 petabits upspeed. So I don't think that'd be possible.
>>715066657 (OP)I legitimately thought the thumbnail on the right was this. I'm still not entirely convinced that it isn't.
petah you can't possibly need that many bits

>>715066657 (OP)Every torrent link on 1337x
just so you retards know, a petabit is a trillion bytes
>>715066818im 35 and think its funny
>>715066881The bottleneck is CPUs and yes you can build a server with hundreds of them
>>715066881Backbone lines, especially for cases where laying new cables are extremely expensive (e.g. undersea cables) and you want to future-proof them as much as possible.
>>715066881This is probably R&D, and there will be years before it becomes user-tier technology, this is for data hubs, major ISPs, etc
>>715066657 (OP)Such download speeds are pointless. The real frontier for improving internet is reducing latency.
If I'm downloading a movie, it doesn't matter if it takes 10 seconds or 40.
>>715067812There's not really any way to improve latency other than building the shortest cable possible between two places. Light can only go so fast.
>>715067975While lightspeed is certain the major cap, we can still improve it a lot. You lose time every time it passes through a hub, that's where you attack the problem.
>>715067053This. The test had to have been either done between two systems plugged directly into each other in the same room, or it's fully theoretical and a sensationalist headline.
Okay cool, where's the 1.02 Pb/s storage to accomodate for such speeds, then?
>>715067253kek me too, thats why I clicked this thread
>>715067253Same, and i've never even played dino crisis before
>>715066657 (OP)I can't even imagine that. I don't more than like 2mb download. It takes me entire days to download and install games, but it also forces me to be picky. With internet like this I'd probably fuck myself over downloading everything I could.
This is fairly old news. The only new thing is that actual long-distance test results were presented at the OFC conference in a paper (officially breaking the record). Here is an actual article on the topic instead of a fucking stupid tweet with no actual information:
https://www.techradar.com/pro/internet-speeds-3-5-million-times-faster-than-us-average-possible-with-current-fiber-optic-cable-tech-how-does-1-020-000-gbps-sound
And here is an article talking about this type of cable being created about two years ago:
https://spectrum.ieee.org/multicore-fiber
It's a fiber optic cable that uses 19 cores. The impressive part is that it uses standard cladding, so you could plug it into existing systems and use existing manufacturing infrastructure. However, it would be really difficult to splice a cable like that, so you probably still wouldn't see these used much outside places where the cable can be placed undisturbed for extremely long periods of time (underground, etc.). It's a good sign for the future.
>>715071919Storage is already really damn cheap, and there's plenty of market incentive to continue creating denser/larger storage as well. The price per TB has been trending down steadily every year with no signs of leveling off just yet.
I bet 1 PT will still not be enough to satisfy your data hoarding compulsion.
When we finally reach the age when that will be the average consumer speed
Even then Streaming video games would be absolute dogshit
The real question is
What data did they "download" to test it?
>>715066818Ngl anon this post radiates bitch energy, i think im going to rape you now
*rapes you*
Haha i raped you
>>715067053Netflix definitely has more than 1 petabit of total bandwidth
>>715066657 (OP)man, I haven't cared about download speed in forever. the internet lost its cool, not much here but to shitpost.
>>715066657 (OP)That's just enough speed to download 1 (one) modern game in a reasonable amount of time
>>715067253Dino Crisis was some cool shit. I should get around to playing 2.
